Nice Boots!Now who says only girls love their shoes?I thought I'll take a little break and and put up a short post on my new foot gear I got, instead of the food posts even though I still have 3 more batches of photos of food I've yet to publish. Actually there are more, but I have procrastinated far too long and I would rather take a bunch of new and better photos when i visit the next time.
So anyway, I was shopping around with Roseate June at Suntec City when we discovered this really BIG New Look outlet, and she couldn't resist to walk in to browse. As she was happily skipping from rack to rack, I saw this pair of truffle colored military style boots amongst the boring black ones. People who knew me would know that I am a total sucker for boots; Yeah I love high cuts, boots, leather, any kinky footwear and what not. For me, it was "love at first sight". Best part is, there seems to be only one pair left in the entire store and its was just the right size for me. I had been hugging that pair of boots ever since, while June was shopping around.
The pair of boots had a price tag of almost $70-80, I can't really remember, but it was on a sale, so it was $55++. When we checked out, the cashier scanned the item and it was only $39.90 and when I paid with my Citibank credit card, there was another small discount, bring the price down to only $36. It is a great steal for a lovely pair of boots at such a low price. I'm so ready to get into my next gig with these nutcrackers!
These boots are meant to kick your ass!Roseate June says it looks sexy. Rawr~~
As a side purchase, I also bought this pair of Rip Curl flip flops for only $16.90 at Flash & Splash, CityLink Mall. Perfect for the upcoming Bintan trip, and its in my favorite colors; black and red! Before that, I couldn't find any flip flops I liked, so Roseate June did suggest me to purchase a pair of Havaianas, then I was thinking the limited edition black one with gold plated words which costs $59.90! However, it was out of stock everywhere so I delayed the whole idea.
June commented that this was actually a wonderful premonition, for me not to be a sucker and spend $60 on a pair of flip flops and I ended up getting what I really like.

Brown Boots from AmericayaI also purchased a new pair of brown truffle colored boots from Americaya. Actually I had been eyeing it for the longest time ever since my favorite Aldo boots gave way. It costed $159 originally and I waited a long long time for the price to drop. Finally the recent GSS brought the price down by 30%! I couldn't wait any longer, so ended up $111.30 poorer but a lot happier.
