shoes and shopping- perfect combo

I didn't realize I've been blogging so much drama for the past few months, and I can't really think of anything sensible to post but ever since I worked as a "Sports PR", my addiction to shoes grew to a much higher scale. Now I came from heels, pumps, wedges and boots obsessed to men's basketball shoes. If only I have the guts to pull off wearing em.

Here's two that I love!♥

And oh yeah, before I forget. I recently joined Zalora and I must say, I'm in love on how easy online shopping is. I remember I wrote an article for Gadgets Magazine about online shopping more than a year ago, but online shopping now is way easier than before. Different modes of payment have been opened and more couriers opened. There are thousands of online shops and sites, it's up to you where you want to buy but as of now, I found Zalora to be the easiest and best online shopping destination.

here's my package, I got it the day after I ordered it. talk about efficient!

The best thing about Zalora is that you'll receive your orders within 1-2days. You also have the option to pay cash on delivery, which helps shoppers who are afraid of not getting their orders or losing money.

Also, Zalora sells all sorts of stuff. Not just clothes, shoes and accessories but also stuff you need for your home. Check them out on www.zalora.com.ph

Here's a screenshot of zalora! it's very user friendly!

Shoes, Teachers, Toms and Love

So recently, I wrote a feature for Gadgets. It's a shoe buyers guide, well for a shoe lover like me it's a piece of cake. Except for the fact that I have to ask companies and stores to send over high-res photos so I can include em in my article. And oh, a new season is coming up so Toms is coming up with their new shoes.

A SALUTE TO THE “INSPIRERS”

Do you have a teacher whom you could never really forget? Whether he or she made your school life fun or feel like hell, you cannot deny the fact that you are who you are today because that person has made an impact in your life.

I had a teacher back in high-school who inspired me to want to be a teacher, apparently that didn't happen but I realized teaching is not just being in a classroom with students but being a teacher to yourself. I also had one memorable professor in college, He was such a pain in the ass but he was one of the people I miss. He taught us how to work under pain and pressure, one of the best lessons in life. One lesson that you could really use in real life. That teachers, they have a way that gets you, but in the end it's a win win.

“A good teacher is like a candle- it consumes itself to light the way for others.”

In 2006, an American traveler, Blake Mycoskie, befriended children in Argentina and found that they did not have shoes to protect their feet. During this trip, he learned that many times children cannot attend school because they are barefoot and shoes are a required part of their uniform.

Inspired by his mentor who taught him the importance of giving, Blake Mycoskie, now known as the The Chief Shoe Giver created TOMS, a company based on a simple One for One premise. For every pair of TOMS Shoes purchased, TOMS will give a brand new pair of shoes to a child in need. One for One.

As a company, TOMS believes that health and education are the fundamental building blocks of a child’s future. The power of education stems from the passionate individuals who make teaching an art form, inside and outside the classroom.

TOMS is known not only for its comfort but also for creating styles that are classic and sophisticated. The TOMS Fall ’11 Collection is dedicated to the “inspirers”, the teachers and mentors. The collection features the classics, cordones, botas, oxford, wedges, stitch outs, youth and tiny models- all with a preppy back to school feel.

So what is your Toms story? Or who was your teacher you can never forget?

The TOMS Fall Collection 2011 will be available by August 2011 in all TOMS authorized retailers: Nothing But H2O outlets, Swim in Rockwell, Adora in Greenbelt 5, Rustans: Makati, Shangri-La Plaza and Gateway, selected Shoe Salon outlets and Trilogy Boutique.
