i already have the shape ups (not an mbt like tantan's ~ he teases me about it everytime! ~ but hey, they do the same thing =D) and i said to myself, as soon as i find the sandals on sale, i'll buy them. my shape ups work as i can feel the burn after wearing them for a while but for sandals, i wouldnt buy them at full price. that's because i will only be able to wear them for a few days a year as england is all about rain and the cold weather =D. let's see if these will work too!

but these, i had to think a million times over!

stitchouts

i heard really good things about toms. but they are not exactly cheap. and having 2 sons (with the youngest getting more mobile by the minute), comfort is the order of the day. i dont want to be running after them in some feet crushing shoes! i convinced myself that this is a really good investment (ok, it's not an investment but you get my point =D). besides, i get to help a kid somewhere.

i initially planned on ordering from their US site and have them delivered to my mom (who is currently in NJ) but when i compared the price to their UK site, the difference isnt much so i decided to order from here. unfortunately, when i switched sites, the US delivery address i put in stuck. so my credit card got blocked as the system flagged it down for questionable activity (not usually a problem if i was ordering from a US site for a US delivery). i thought maybe it was a sign i shouldnt buy the shoes =D. but i really want them! i've never liked shoes this bad before, i tell yah! i phoned my bank the next day and they immediately lifted the block, ordered and voila! good thing i read the reviews though and ordered half a size bigger. they fit perfectly!

if only it will stop raining so i can wear them already! i dont want them ruined the first time i wear them!
