shoe

Here is a pair of plastic bathing shoe which I like.   F-Troupe, the London based shoemakers have created this innovative rubber bathing shoes which feature dotted ribbing at the toe and around the soles, have cut-outs at the side and plantlike design on the sole.  This beach-friendly plastic bathing shoe looks like a pair of sneakers and is lightweight.  My family and I will be heading to the beach for a short break in about 2 month’s time.  We will be staying at the water chalet resort which is also renowned for their beautiful decor, American Standard toilets and open roof bathrooms.  Perhaps I should get a pair of this cute Plastic Bathing shoe for my trip to the beach.

I can’t resist them and I know that I have been talking about them lately. A lot.  Who can resist them anyway? Saw these at JCrew.com.  Yes, I am into ballet flats now.  I am so madly in love with them.  Ballet flats are very versatile and they go well with anything.  These lovely shoes can spice up an outfit anytime.

A Treat For Mother’s Day

Mother’s Day is just around the corner.  Besides pampering myself with a facial and acne treatment, I would love to give my wardrobe an update.  I was browsing the Gap a while ago and came across some of the most gorgeous new arrivals.  I love Gap.  They have the most stylish and comfortable clothes.  I am madly in love with these few pieces.

Not Your Daughter’s Jeans Tummy Tuck ‘Emma’ Pencil Skirt

barbara

I have been reading the curvatrim reviews on weight loss lately because I have strayed off the diet wagon and put on a few pounds.  I can feel my tummy getting flabbier *sigh* I wonder if wearing this Not Your Daughter’s Jeans Tummy Tuck ‘Emma’ Pencil Skirt would help to flatten my tummy.  I have a mini school reunion to attend in 2 weeks’ time so I better look good.   This sleek and straight skirt is made from stretch denim and has a flattering fit.   It has crisscross fabric panels which helps to flatten the tummy and lift the derriere.   If you are interested, do check out Nordstrom.com.  Available in Plus sizes too.

Denim Is Back

barbara

I was chatting with a friend last night about the prototype 37-c reviews which I had read earlier and then our conversation was diverted to fashion.  She asked me if I have seen the clothes at Forever 21.  Well, I haven’t checked them out until she told me about it yesterday.   Looks like denim is back.  I remember having a similar denim jacket about 10 years ago.  Somehow I cannot remember where is my jacket now. I better do some spring cleaning in my closet this weekend.

Go Green With Recycled Stretch Bag

barbara

I came across this really cool bag made from 100% recycled advertising campaign billboards yesterday.  You know, recycled stuff have never been this chic.  This stitch shoulder bag is made without any glue. Can you believe it?  Inspired by the strength and symmetry found in nature, it can support up to 33 lbs. You can put just about anything in this bag such as groceries, flowers and even your tuxedo shoes. It is available in the colors of recycled billboard or natural brown leather.  I prefer the brown leather one. If you are interested, swing by IloveUma.com for more information.

Shoes I Heart

While the hubs was busy looking for the cheapest auto insurance online, I was at my laptop, with my eyes glued to some of the most gorgeous shoes at 9West.  I just love its Spring 2010 collection.  The weather is starting to warm up in certain countries and this means it is almost time to start showing off your toes.   Here are some of my favourites.

Short Skirt And Legging Duo

barbara

I just saw this fabulous short knit skirt with built-in leggings at Soma.com and I am so in love with it.  This set is perfect for the layering look.  The short knit skirt and legging duo is just as wonderful as exposed skin care treatment.   Made from Peruvian pima cotton, it even comes in a hidden pocket to hold keys or card. Ain’t this cool?  You can easily slip this on and pair it with a t-shirt when need to run some errands after your aerobics or yoga classes.
