Seeing Green
I dropped by SM’s Kultura yesterday, with a goal of buying a pair of comfy local-made slippers. I love handmade/native slippers, being born and raised in Albay – home to numerous abaca handicrafts. Anyway, back to my slipper-hunting activity. There weren’t a lot of choices, so I just wander around the store to look for some interesting items. And I did see some: wedge sandals displayed together with bags made from buri and some from braided abaca fiber. My eyes were actually fixed on a certain item: a pair of wedge sandals with green straps. What really attracted to them are the green straps. The color green.
I have an ever-changing color preference. Depending on my mood. But seeing those green straps, my fascination for purple (supposed to be my current favorite) was slowly slipping away. Immediately, I tried on the sandals, asked for my size, and tried them on again. Satisfied with how it on my feet, I headed for the cashier to make the purchase. I was so excited with my find and planned to wear them the next day at work.
A few stores from Kultura, I passed by another shoe shop — Mendrez. They’re having this “Sale in the City” promo, so I decided to go in and check their items. I do love the shoes in Mendrez. I can honestly say that almost all my foot wears, I buy from them. Their shoes fit me well and make my feet look dainty even if I don’t have the prettiest feet. I tried on a few sandals and office shoes, but I wasn’t that interested. I went around some more. After a while, a pair of foot wear caught my eyes, and yes, they were in the shade of green.
For a couple of seconds, I just stared at them in wonder. They look so comfortable and soft that I wasn’t able to resist the urge to try them on. There was another pair of the same style in Ecru, but my mind has already decided that it has to be the pair in green shade. I asked for a pair in my size, tried them on (they really felt good my feet) and found myself in front of the cashier paying for them. Yeah, an unplanned purchase. But what the heck! I like them so much.
Here, take a look at my finds:
I simply adore the straps.
Isn’t this pair cute?
Avi! Wala bang pink version noong wedge shoes?
I love that Mendrez shoes — iyong style pati iyong color.
Good finds. ;p

aru! Napakayaman naman ng babaeng ito. kung ako sayo sariling atin nalang, gawang buri matibay pa. Gusto ko ung takong sa harap, may size ba para sa akin at may panglalake ba? hindi kaya matapilok ako sa taas ng takong na yan? naku bili nalang ako ng spartan komportable pa sa paa hindi pa madulas at mura pa.
Salve: kaya nga gusto ko mga tsinelas sa Kultura. they always remind me of Bicol.
