October 13th, 2010Shiny Shoes From Aldo

Murad Transforming Skincare

While the girlfriends were looking for working shoes – i was looking at the one behind her – yes ! shiny shoes at Aldo – I love shiny shoes – what about you?  I think I can wear shiny shoes everyday – but of course – they need to be comfy.  Aldo shoes may not be the most comfy but with a look like that – i had to get it – it wasn’t expensive either.  The spouse – rolled his eyes as he saw the sales girl packed it into the box for me – hahah!  I told you I was shopping a lot this month.

I don’t know how many shoes you have but if you are anything like myself – you will love these Benji clear shoe boxes that are currently on sale.  Actually, i didn’t find out myself but i was reading extenze which one of the guy friend showed me – the other day and he was the person telling me about it about this clear shoe boxes.

I found it a bit expensive even though they are on sale for $149 but if you have like so many shoes and want to keep them in good shape – then go for the boxes – because they are compact and clear as seen here.  I really might buy them if i had as much shoes as I did back home – but for now, I’m going to keep it in my “to get list” for Christmas.

June 15th, 2010Time For Sandals

Murad Transforming Skincare

Time of the year to get some cute sandals again?  this year – they are even cuter than the previous years – i am definitely gonna go for a pedicure soon – so that i can wear them.  Usually, I wait till later in the year to get them but last year – i didn’t find any nice ones to get when they were cheap – but this year I’m gonna get them even though they are expensive because i planned to spend lots of time at the beach and BBQing.

June 7th, 2010Aldo

Murad Transforming Skincare

I’m not a big fan of Aldo – not because the shoes ain’t pretty but because when you have kids – you wear as flat as you can.   I was out finding more about social security disability and came across this store – but actually the girlfriend who was back home was actually buying like 3 inches shoes from Aldo – so that kind perk my interest.  I didn’t get to take any pictures inside – so sorry.

The boots and shoes are currently on sale now – but a look at it – it’s not as cheap as i had expected.  The handbags were pretty cheap, but they are not made of leather – so i was abit apprehensive to buy them.  But hey – if they are for casual wear why not eh?  so yes I’m buying one online – free shopping for a limited period – so if you are into Aldo – hurry and don’t miss out.

April 24th, 2010My Comfy Pump

Murad Transforming Skincare

I was showing my g/f this website www.hcgdiet.net when she  showed me her new TOD shoes instead – that she bought online from Voxx – of course I fell in love with it immediately – it looked somewhat like the ones i have had for the longest time – but I had left it home when moving across the Atlantic.  Why do we go -ga – ga over these comfy pumps..??  very simple and straight forward – it’s really comfy and good for traveling.  Made in Italy - they are very expensive – i bought mine for like $450 in NY but that was many years ago – you see i used to travel a lot for work and when i saw it in Bloomingdale.

My g/f bought hers at a discount – so she paid like $215 – which is a steal – i had exclaimed that it was ex – when she first showed me – but a look at the other prices – they were all at least at $365.    I love the leather in soles but when you buy the color i did – you have to be prepared to see the dirt – like mine – as i wore them often enough.  So, my question is would you pay so much for a pump?  the spouse wouldn’t think so of course – but it was before we got together – i wonder what he would think – if i were to spend so much on a pump now – hahah!!

November 4th, 2009Shoe Bag

Murad Transforming Skincare

You know it’s easier to get some plasma mounts than a proper shoe bag to carry your extra shoes.. or your kid’s ballet shoes.   Thank God..! i found some really nice ones at an online store. This shoe bag is perfect for carrying just about any shoes.. and comes in  2 sizes.. one for up to 500g and one for more than 500g.  A wee bit expensive than what i would like to pay for at A$12.50 and shipping.   So as much as I would love one for everyone of us at home.. i think i can only afford to get them for my kid and I.  The man..?? he can carry them with a grocery bag.. muahhaha!!!

September 21st, 2009DIY Foot Soak

Murad Transforming Skincare

No time for a pedicure..??   no problem.. i’m sure you can make time for a foot soak.. at least.. and pamper that feet of yours right..??  Yes..! after using the best appetite suppressant for the week, I wanted to end it up with a little bit of pampering myself.  You don’t need one of those machines.. you can use a nice plastic tub or a stainless steel one.

  • Soak feet for 20 minutes.
  • Follow with your favorite moisturizing cream.
  • If you have any suspected allergies to any of the ingredients do not use foot soak.
  • Do not heat the milk too hot for skin contact, or allow it to cool to a suitable temperature after combined with fruit.

September 2nd, 2009Foot File

Murad Transforming Skincare

I normally don’t like to get a pedicure because i’m shy about my feet.  They are rough.. and they are dry.. and the foot file that i used to have.. didn’t do its job.  I contemplated.. on getting the Revlon foot file that has a blade or some kind of shredder on it.  But i’m so chicken..  afraid that i might cut my feet off.. hahahha!!! So while looking for  Amazon books i finally found the perfect foot file that was cheap .. and good…!!!  Less than $5 .. !! this was the best investment ever..  because it did keep the back of my feet – the heels.. smooth.  Thank God..!! no more being shy about going for a pedicure now.
