New Find: Sam Edelman Beatrix Flats

Happy Friday!!! You have no idea how happy I am that it's almost weekend, and a three day one at that! Can't wait to hang out with good companies and just relax...

Just wanted to share with all of you these amazing new flats that I just got this week! Finding the perfect pair of flats for me is more difficult than you think. My feet are incredibly sensitive to anything so the only things I can be comfortable in are FitFlop Sandals, which are for old ladies (they're kind of like shapeups but as sandals), or boots. I've been eyeing these Sam Edelman flats with the spikes for a while, but I think the spikes intimidated me and it screamed out "PAIN!!!" hahaha.

I read reviews on them and everyone said they're super comfortable, so I took the plunge! I ordered a pair in Evening Rose in an 8, (I'm normally a 7), and they fit alright. I read somewhere that you'll need to go a size up, or at least half a size, like Tory Burch Flats. Those I wear an 8 comfortably. Let me tell you... these are by far the most comfortable flats I have ever put on. Seriously. I wore them the whole day yesterday at work, plus to the mall afterwards, and it was my first time! Tory Burch flats are comfy as well, but I had to wear them for almost a year until they're full comfortable, even then they will still hurt at the end of the day. I was amazed at the fact that I didn't need to break them in. I think I've found my HG of flats! ^^

I loveee rose gold!

New Find: The Three YSL

Good evening all! or should I say good morning since it is in the AM... I should be sleeping because tomorrow I am going on a bike ride with some friends at 9 AM, but... can't sleep! >< I've just realized that I haven't posted anything about the first "F" on my blog! which is Fashion... Since I got one of these lovely babies today, I thought hmm... this would make a good first fashion post. I've always liked YSL, but never really thought about owning one since my passion is Chanel. But because of Chanel's ridiculous price increases, I find myself looking for lower priced luxury brands these days and YSL is at the top of my list.

It just so happen that there are many websites, such as Rue la la and Belle & Clive, that sells authentic luxury brand items for less than their retail prices. However, their sale usually lasts for only 1-2 days, and the good stuff will most likely be sold out within the first 10 minutes. I was lucky enough to snatch my first YSL Tribute Sandal in Pacific (navy blue) straw-embossed patent leather from Rue la la.
