bury me in this dress

I am planning to buy this lovely shoes. It’s so Dorothy of Wizard of Oz. I prefer the non-platform shoes version of this but it doesn’t come in my size. I have ridiculously huge feet. Anyway, the shoes is from Electrique Boutique and sells for only $24.99. The international shipping is a killer though. The total would run up to roughly $62 for FedEx Economy. That’s more than 3,000 pesos. I think it’ll be worth it though. Besides, I find it hard to buy shoes in the Philippines because the sizes are too small for me. The problem with imported shoes, based on my experiences, is that they tend to melt and fall apart if they’re unused for several months or so. The boots I bought from the US is making smiley faces at me already. Is this a common occurence? I think our weather has something to do with this.

I finally received Mike’s birthday present and I love it! He told me last month that he’s sending over something from my amazon wish list but he wouldn’t say what it is. Well it turns out that he sent me Francesca Lia Block’s “Necklace of Kisses” as well as a postcard of Ireland and a cute greeting card. I’ll try to scan them tomorrow at the office. I can’t wait to read the book! Thanks so much, Mike. That’s so sweet of you
