my yellow Susi Blaze wedges, frm Thailand. Susi Blaze is rather.... unknown, actually. not like Jimmy Choo or whoever. only 199 baht, or around S$8! because in Thailand, all the shoe retail shops face fierce competition so they slash and slash their prices. further down you can see that MOST of my shoes are frm Bangkok, Thailand. notice the embroidered flowers on the heel! :)

pain factor: 4/5

appearance[when worn on feet]: 4.5/5

black wedges, given by mother ang. it used to be hers. this pair of wedges makes my feet look nice! dont know where this is from, though.

denim wedges, Marie Claire. my oldest pair of shoes. since i was....... pri 5 or 6 i think. as you can see it is still rather new.

Carlo Rino wedges, frm Batam, Indonesia. the shape of this wedge is rather weird, i think. plus the curve in front makes it hard to walk down the stairs. but it looks great with white nail polish!

white Tracce wedges. i dont really have much to say abt this pair. except that it's comfortable. seems like the perfect shoe, but it doesnt match well with my clothes.

pain factor: 1/5

another pair of denim wedges, also frm Bangkok, Thailand. this pair cuts the feet and is SUPER heavy. but it adds 3 inches++ to a person's height! perfect for shorties like me.

my off-white and black polka dot wedges, the 2nd newest pair of mine [for now]! took this frm father ang's shop last thursday. at first the wanted the black with white dots, but changed my mind when i saw this. :) this wedge is quite low, and i havent seasoned it yet. so for now it's a bit uncomfortable.

red striped wedges, my newest pair of shoes [for now], also frm father ang's shop! i was looking for it since last friday and i finally found it! heh heh. as you can see it's similar to the polka dot one.

that's the last of wedges! now, moving on...

2. Heels

my white Ice Lemon Tee heels! my favourite pair! it gives length to my legs PLUS it doesn cause blisters except for one on my right toe! i like the heel and it isnt too high nor too low. :)

pain factor: 2/5

red kitten heels! although it cant be seen in this picture, there's a 'pretty' word in blue on the strap. i cant stand it. couldnt they put it in pink instead of blue??? no sense of colour matching. plus, the insole is really slippery so my feet will keep sliding forward, causing the part between the big toe and the 2nd toe to be super pain. why did i buy it then? i didnt. father ang gave it to me.

pain factor: 4/5

white kitten heels frm Trendy Zone. cheap [S$9.90] and looks good. but the problem is, cheap does not equal to good quality. the 2nd time i wore it the buckle broke. so this is the only pair that is spoilt in my shoe cupboard. why dont i juz throw it away then, you ask. because i'm gonna wait until i have the mood [probability 0] and then sew the buckle back on!

i realize that i have very few heels. have my eye on a pair of black patent chunky heels frm Trendy Zone. :D this is the end of the heels section. next up:

3. Ballet Flats/Pumps

bronze ballets flats frm Bangkok, Thailand. mother ang bought it back. the colour is too dull, if you ask me. but the comfort factor is there.

pain factor: 2/5

pink ballet flats frm Ice Lemon Tee. unlike the other pair frm Ice Lemon Tee, this pair is the complete opposite. it might juz make it to the SHOES FRM HELL level [which you will see soon], but it lacks something. dont ask me what. i dont know. :s the only reason i bought it was because it was cheap. see, kiasu Singaporean.

pain factor: 4/5

appearance: 2/5

white ballet flats, also frm Bangkok, Thailand. i am ashamed to say that i have not been wearing this pair. this pair is one of the pioneers of my shoes collection. also the 1st FREE pair i got frm father ang's customer in Bangkok.

pain factor: 2/5

purple ballet flats, frm some shop in Tampines Mall. this pair of shoes seem to have a mood. when it's good, you wont feel any pain. when it's bad, your feet will hurt like hell. it's hard to clean too. but at least it looks good.

pain factor: 3/5 [depends]

appearance: 4/5

lo and behold, the SHOES FRM HELL!! yellow pumps frm People Of Asia. if you think you have difficult shoes, wait until you try this one. blisters on your heel, blisters on your toes, blisters on your sole, blisters EVERYWHERE!!!!! this is the pair i wore to connie's house for the steamboat. looks can be deceiving. a pretty pair of shoes may be evil, juz like a pretty face can also be evil. funny how you can derive philosophy frm shoes, eh?

pain factor: 10/5

red patent pumps, frm Trendy Zone, given by claudia ang this yr for my birthday. i havent even worn it and maxine ang went to wear it and SCUFFED it some more!!!!!!!!!!

beige pumps, frm father ang's shop. this pair is SHOES FRM HELL in a kinder form. look at the heel! it's stained with my BLOOD.

black chinese-type mules, frm Bangkok, Thailand. i nvr noticed this before, but this pair of mules looks like the kind that they burn for the dead!! *shudder* anyway, i like it cos it's unique! these are also great for shopping.

pain factor: 2/5

blue mules, also frm Bangkok, Thailand, given by mother ang. i have NVR worn these before. i might, someday. to me, they look like bedroom slippers. ssh..dont tell mother ang.

pain factor: ????

appearance: 2/5

mules are also few in all my shoes. catch your breath, for you are abt to come to the last section...

5. Slip-Ons/Flats

gold slip-ons, frm father ang's shop. i have only worn these once, to father ang's church thingy. baptism, i think. havent worn it since because it simply does not flatter my feet either way. will give it credit because it's in one of my favourite colours, GOLD! ...enough said.

pain factor: 1/5
