SHOELACE

Remember on my Life Chucks! post, I mentioned that I'll be buying a Chucks for my kiddo. Well, we actually went then to Converse factory sale and I bought 2 pairs for him. I just realized yesterday that it was his first pair of shoelace sneakers! Which means that he don't know how to knot a shoelace yet 'coz he always have the slip-on sneakers or the ones with magic tapes on it.

So yesterday, he asked for the other pair of Chucks and told me that he would want to wear it the next day at school 'coz it's their PE day. Then he got a little worried and asks me to teach him how to knot the shoelace. I did show him how and it's too bad that my boy is having a hard time doing it... and he is now 8 years old! So he is now starting to hate the Chucks that we bought just because he still don't know how to tie a shoelace. He ended up wearing his old sneakers with the magic tapes today. LOL!

I think I baby my kid too much that he easily gives up and would always want his Mama to help him out in everything. Hmmm... He'll learn it too, I'll be asking him to practice every now and then. Am I a freak Mom? Haha!

LIFE CHUCKS!

Chuck Taylor All-Stars or Converse All-Stars, also referred to as "Chucks" or "Cons". I love them! I'm not really into sneakers but whenever I see Chucks, I just fall for it. Haha!

There was an ongoing factory sale for Converse. Me and my peers went there to check the stocks. Being the compulsive shopper that I am known for, I just can't help but to buy at least one pair at that time. I even ask money from them just to buy that pair that I wanted. I've always want to have a corduroy Chucks, I saw one and there's just one pair of it, I simply cannot afford to leave without buying it. It's not the color I want though. But I still like it anyways. LOL!

I'll definitely go back there tomorrow together with my kiddo to buy a pair for him as well.

This is the pair that I bought.

WEDGES

I am so addicted to wedge right now. I just can't help it. Know the feeling when you saw it in a mall, you decided to ignore but it keeps on bugging your mind and you just can't stop thinking about it? Well, I ended up buying it anyways. I just love the look of it and the comfort of wearing it instead of those slim heels or stilettos.

Shoes are one of those stuffs that I have to say is something that I am having a hard time when shopping. Why? Because I have a size of like 9 or 10 and sometimes size 10 doesn't fit me still. WTF! That's why when I found a pair that I really like and fits me and all, no questions, I'll buy it!

Just recently, me and my best gurl Marriah went on shopping. We found a place where they sell wedge shoes for about half the price at the mall. I really went gaga seeing them. Though there were some that still doesn't fit me, but now I know where to go. I have to control myself buying 'coz I don't want to end up shopping for shoes alone. I ended up buying 2 pairs. There is still a next time. LOL!

This is one of what we bought that day. We always end up having same color with different designs or same design with different colors. It's a girl thing!
