Want. Need. Required.

My shoe 'fetish' is starting to get out of hand of late. I have more shoes than I can/do wear... and the number is just increasing and increasing.

I wasn't actually so bad.. until last year! I had a very very bad case of spurs on both heels... probably for about 5 years in total. Too painful to walk on anything that wasnt cushioned! Alhamdulillah I got treated in Turkey last year (using shock wave therapy). I still had severe pains in the first few months, so I thought it didn't work, but now, alhamdulillah, for almost 6-7 months, I am pain-free. I can walk/run/dance, basically do anything for hours. Alhamdulillah! I seriously cannot explain how thankful I am, as the 5 years of spurs were really really painful for me. I really felt I was useless, worthless... most of all, I felt like a disappointment to everyone who would go out with me.

So... Now that I am cured, alhamdulillah, I'm back to loving shoes... wearing all kinds... basically I prefer heels to flats now! Flats were the cause of my spurs. Doctors have really advised against wearing flats especially for prolonged hours. High heels are obviously unhealthy too (when worn long hours), but docs say they aint as bad as dead flats. The heel needs some support. Thanks to the platforms and even wedges, heels don't need to hurt. :)))

Anyways, to the point.

I want this baby:

It's nothing flash, but just looks so comfy and hottttttttttttttt. Butttttt, I'm actually fighting against it at the moment. If I purchased every shoe I wanted, boy, I think I'd be out on the street... my shoes and I. :)

Hmm.. they are beautiful... there will be prettier ones in the future.. near future... I'm sure.. especially with eid just around the corner. :)))) 3 days of eid... 3 new pairs of shoes? Of course not. :) But tis a nice thought to entertain.. ahhhh :)

My new puppies!

No, not puppy dogs... My new shoes! They've arrived! Well, they're not everybody's cup of tea, but me loves them very very muchos. :)

Remember my post on espadrilles a while ago? Well I finally found MY pair. :) I wasn't too sure until they arrived, but they look so much better than the photo, and they are the perfect fit. They're so perfect and I'm so excited that I can't explain. LOL

Well, I've taken a photo to share them with you. :) I wasn't really in a purchasing state, i.e. no money to spend. :) And you know what? They were a bargain. I purchased them on eBay for only $10.00 AUD. Cool ha? Otherwise I wouldn't have bought them. :)

Oh and they're sooooo comfy! They're not flat and they're not too high. Just the perfect height! :)

Me loves online shopping and me loves eBay. :)

What do you think about online shopping? Which online store do you normally purchase from? Have you had any problems with your purchase or the seller? Any warnings? Help me build the online hall of fame and shame so that those who do what they do well are rewarded with more customers and those who should be shamed are done so openly that nobody else is hurt by them.

I'm in a loving mood today. Mashaallah. So I love you all for the sake of Allah even if I don't know most of you. :)

Mucux!
