My Wish List

Wasn't so aMused...

Wore my new Muse shoe today, the pink/beige ones... Comfort wise... fitting, but the back was painful... partially my fault, cos EVERY pair of shoes hurt my feet!!! For every pair of shoes I buy I have to buy the padding to put inside which is an extra $5-$10 each time! Imagine you buy a shoe that's $20 and have to spend an extra $10 padding it... *sighs* I didn't have any spare shoe padding at home, so I went without haha... bad idea!!! By the time I got to my car pool downstairs, the back of the shoe already cut into me... by the time I got out of the car... I could hardly walk haha... Ok not funny. But I think for normal people (cos I'm not normal ;P) the shoes would be comfy enough. The height is ok, not much, but a little bit of a boost for us short-er people =)

But I did get annoyed last night when I opened the shoe box last night only to reveal that my pink shoes had blue marks around the studded area!!! I was actually quite frustrated, and wanted to shoot off a nasty email already... but luckily the seller was spared haha. I saw that the blue marks were around the stitching as well, which could only mean one thing! What kind of dummy uses blue fabric marker/pencil to draw on a light colour?! Seriously not on!!! Try maybe WHITE next time! Basically, on closer inspection, the blue markings are all over the studded part on both shoes. But a CLEAN soft eraser gets rid of the marks quite well, it's just slightly time consuming =_=" But today I'm happy... just need to get padding for the shoes (*^_^*)



Oh and another note on the shoes, I've only tried the pink ones but I'm pretty sure the blue ones will be the same, the heels are damn loud!!! Not a high click, but those type of hollow "clock-clock" sounds! Even if you try to walk more gently and quietly... it doesn't work!!!

But overall... I like my new shoes... and I would buy more shoes from this seller if there's other nice designs in the future. It would be good for the seller to put a link to her livejournal blogshop on her main website though cos I had a hard time tracking it down the second time and google wasn't helpful.
