You won't know whether you fit or not.. But real shopping, you try, sometimes, out of 10, 3 or 4 might not fit, thus, you save the $$... That's how I feel.. Tops very hard to buy.. Coz I'm taller, always end up looking short on me even though it looks ok on the model online.. It goes the same for skirts.. End up cannot wear coz can see half my bu tt...

I don't know about you guys... But for me, shoes wear out pretty fast.. Maybe I am too rough or I don't bother taking care of my shoes at all.. When I reach home, I don't keep my shoes properly.. I just keep them aside.. Years ago, I bought Charles & Keith.. But somehow, their shoes don't last that long for me.. The most, half a year, I need to get a new pair... And while getting a replacement, I might end up buying more than 1 pair, as not all are suitable for my feet.. In the end, I can spend easily 300-400 for a pair of comfortable heels over 1 year.. Which in my opinion, is not worth it.. But I had a pair of Gucci heels, bought 4 years ago.. I wore it to work everyday in my previous job.. Never bother taking care of it, but till date, the shoes are still in perfect condition.. Becoz of this reason, it greatly reduced the number of new shoes I need to buy.. The heels cost me 580 bucks, but it lasted me for 4 years liao.. And I believe, more years to come.. So, in the long run, I am saving $, not wasting.. It's not becoz I got high quality life.. I earn my salary, I just wanna buy something nice to spoil myself once in a while.. Somemore, I don't like holidays.. So, other than saving my $$ up, I will just spend on luxury items.. But now, with a flat to my own name, I reduced the buying of luxury items too.. It's not about whether you can buy or not, but a matter of whether you want it or not...
