A&D's Holiday Guide: Chicify Your OOTD!

It's the third week of November na! I haven't started my Christmas shopping yet, although I have my list already. Just need to get my ass moving and start shopping na. For the past two Christmases, I've been trying to avoid the mall as much as possible and do all my shopping online and buy local brands and so far friends and family loved what they received!

Good news for fellow online shoppers like me. Chicify, which started in 2011, has re-hatched with a fresh new look, new brands and their own exclusive collection!

Summer Shoe Lusts!

I love shoes! When I'm bored, sad or uninspired, I browse through my favorite local shoe brands to check what's new or sometimes when I'm really really sad (at may budget), I buy new shoes! Relate ba kayo? :)

I have no budget for a new pair (or maybe one) of shoes... Heehee! I'm sharing with you some of the shoes I've been checking out well almost everyday. You never knw, baka mag-SALE!

1. Gold Dot Kriselle Wedges (Php1,595)

I've been looking for a black basic wedges for everyday use. I like how simple yet sexy this Kriselle is. (Photo from Gold Dot FB Page)

2. Suelas x Anthill Collection (Php1,150 - Php1,250)

I'm a fan of both Suelas and Anthill and this collaboration made me so happy! I love how they our very own Filipino hand-loomed fabrics for their shoes!  Anf my favorite is...

I don't have a blue sandals yet so this is perfect! (Photos from Suelas Online)

3. Primaluxe Manila's Enzo Leopard Sneakers (Php990)

Leopard print is my favorite animal print! I like this for days when you want to feel like a bagets! Haha. Uy bata pa ako ah.

Or those days na wala kang pedicure or sira sira na ang pedicure! Heehee! Guilty?

I love that it's only Php990 and they look comfy! This also comes in Camo, Floral, Houndstooth and Python which are also nice too! (Photos are from Primaluxe Manila's FB Page)

4. Renegade Folk's Breathe (Php1,450)

Sadly, this is sold out in my size :(

5. Renegade Folk's British SUmertime (Php1,500)

This is also out of stock na huhu! I hope they'll restock this because I want to get both... or not. Hehehe! Oh... shoes!

Hay... I wish I can buy a pair of shoes each month. That would make a happy happy girl. As well as clothes na din.... Wishful thinking!

Care to share your favorite shoe finds? Shoes brands?

Shoe Lust

Here we go... again.

I've always thought I'm a bag lady. But these days, I'm more drawn to shoes!

Shoes I've been eyeing:

Anthology Hudsons. Still don't know which color I want!

New Anthology Beas! I want the Yellow/Tan or Beige/Black! Argh!

Tita K, you got me high on shoes!!!

Gold Dot Tribal Flats. I think this is sold out. I hope they'll make more! I want these!!!

Le Sigh!

I Want To Shop!

Since I got pregnant, I haven't really shopped. Well, we (DH and I) mostly shopped for the baby, I bought a few clothes and shoes for a wedding I went to (2 months post-partum), for new office clothes (because I haven't gone back to my pre-pregnancy weight plus the flabs and bulges here and there), and stuff for the house. But those didn't stop me from online window shopping, lusting over clothes I can't fit it! But for shoes, I can buy! It's the only part of my body that went back to normal LOL.


Ichigo Shoes
I don't own a pair of Ichigo's YET! But I always check their site for new style of brogues or oxford shoes. It's oxfords and loafers overload! This is from their lookbook.

I would love to own a pair of two of Ichigo's, but that would have to wait for now. I've got bills to pay!

Next online shop would be, Tonic.

I've been a fan of Tonic for 2 years maybe, I have 2 pairs of their shoes, a passport holder and a bag. I always visit their store in GH or their booths in bazaars. I know the owner so I get discounts! Booties are the trend right now, I want to own a pair but I don't know how to style them with my current wardrobe (that needs to be updated!, I'm a mom now but I don't want be losyang).

I have my eyes on these Annika Booties!

More on booties, I've recently discovered Gold Dot. I had been lusting over their lace-ups for the longest time, only to find out it was sold out when I wanted to get one already. I think there are a few pairs left of the green one and it's now on sale (20% off)!

Bianca Lace-ups

And then there's this pair of booties! Made of real soft leather, with studs, and I love the heels! These shoes looks so yummy! I can't resist them. Ughhh!

Brandy Booty-licious!!! in Tan

And a sky-high pumps I don't mind owning but would really be hard for me to walk in!

Brittany Pumps in Gray

Gold Dot shoes are pricier than of Ichigo and Tonic shoes. But of better quality also! If I'm not on a shopping ban and on a tight budget, I would love to buy a pair of Gold Dot! But for now, I'm content just being able to window shop!
