JC Foxy... Almost

I know everyone, especially bloggers went gaga when SM Fashion Forum announced that their shipment of Jeffrey Campbell shoes arrived a few weeks ago. I didn't pre-order anything because I was on a tight budget back then and really didn't want to splurge. But when I saw that it's already available, I headed to SM Makati to check out what's still available. Luckily, they still have the Foxys. I really like the Foxy because it's massive but still girly unlike the Lita which is massive too but very military. Tomboy-ish. They had the cheetah print, pink and black. I actually wanted the pink but they only have my size in the cheetah print. I knew I had to try it on. 

I went gaga over these too. I love how tall it is and the print is so nice! The platform is a bit scary because it's around 2 inches high but who cares? It's amazing! It's disturbingly comfortable (because of the platform) and I really love thick, chunky heels so this is a winner.. but not the price tag. It's more than PHP5,000 which still bothers me. I reserved it for one day but didn't bother coming back for it because:

1. It's too damn expensive. Ouch on my wallet.
2. Not a practical buy because of the height? I'm 5'5 and I don't want to scare kids. HAHA.
3. Size wise, it fits but I think I'm a half size bigger. 

So to the lucky girl who got this, enjoy it. One of the best I've ever tried on.

So, did you purchase any JC pair from SM's FF? :)

Am I Seeing Double?

Do you remember how famous the Jessica Simpson Dany Platforms were in fashion blogs? Okay, they're still famous because I would love to wear one if only I wouldn't look like a tower because these are sky high and I'm 5'5. Awkward. My boyfriend will kill me. Anyway, almost all fashion blogs that I've been following has this pair and everyone said that it's amaaazing. I wouldn't disagree. It's great as is or with socks.


When I was browsing an online shop, guess what I saw! Jeffrey Campbell's Foxy Platform. It's almost identical! The colors of the JC platforms are black and tan but with lighter colored heels.

I'm not entirely sure which one came out first so I don't have the right to say anything about the designers but what I could say is that I still like the Jessica Simpson platforms because the color combination is better and they really look fierce!
