Haul:Slip On Shoes

Online shopping has never been easy here in Saudi Arabia. Yeah I admit, when it comes to shopping I tend to be very impulsive without thinking twice whether to buy this or that. When I was in Philippines, I always browse online (multiply.com) for beauty products and use my Paypal account to pay for that and it sucks because sometimes Paypal can be annoying and going to bank to pay for the amount is quite tiring also. I just wish there's an COD in Philippines so that its more comfortable and easy to shop online!

Anyhow, we "sisters" aka Nurse here in Saudi our only relax time and fun time is to browse and shop online because after a tiring duty all you want to do is to relax and sometimes think go shopping (?). Where we are staying is way too far from our current civilization compared to Jeddah, Riyadh and Makkah you can go outside without wearing face mask and enjoy your shopping day but here its so sad that every time we go out its a must that we wear our face mask. Also, the sad part, we don't have malls in here! :( We do have small stores and the brands that they sell are not known. Until one day, I discovered this online shop called "sukar.com" which the items are from Turkey but I did not purchase yet because I was holding back myself and told myself that, "no, you shouldn't shop online but instead save your salary" but I just can't help it. I ordered bags, watches and etc. The website does offer flash sale which means items are quickly sold out because of the low prizes. I bumped in to another website called, "namshi.com" which is based from Dubai, UAE and the very good part is COD. How cool is that?! So in this website I bought my very first 2 pairs of slip-on shoes because aside from the fact that they come in true to size, its also affordable!

First Pair is from Ginger- size 39
This must be the one I'm looking for! It's soft and I like the color because its neutral, perfect for everyday use!

Second Pair is from British Knights- size 39
I ordered this plaid one because I do like patterns like this. Sometimes its good to step outta the box!

So that's it for my haul post. I'm sorry if there were no actual photos its just because everything is a mess right now specially that we are going to transfer in our new hostel so our things are here and there. :)

Dream Catcher Necklace

Hooray! Second blogpost for August 2. I really don't post that much because I'm lazy when it comes to drafting but I feel like this month is full of energy and I want to update my blog as much as possible because I know when I already have work I will not be able to blog as much as I can so I'm enjoying every single day that is left while still here in Philippines.

Anyhow, this post is all about fashion accessories that is quite in the trend and this is called Dream catcher. So what is dream catcher? Dream catchers are one of the most fascinating traditions of Native Americans. The traditional dream catcher was intended to protect the sleeping individual from negative dreams, while letting positive dreams through. The positive dreams would slip through the hole in the center of the dream catcher, and glide down the feathers to the sleeping person below. The negative dreams would get caught up in the web, and expire when the first rays of the sun struck them. -http://www.dream-catchers.org/

I saw this dream catcher from Rhea Bue, fashionista from the South (Zamboanga City)and I tell you she's my current fave fashion blogger because I just like her style, just can't explain how I want to be with her during her photo-shoot. I'm also hoping to meet her someday so yeah I don't wanna lose my hope for that. The particular blogpost that I saw it from was from this link http://bebe-doll.net/inspiration-week-2/. Then on July 31, an online shop messaged me on my facebook page telling me to like her facebook page and upon checking her page I saw dream catcher necklaces! I totally and literally screamed because of the cute dream catchers they sell specially the color combination. Here are some of my picks from the shop:



Don't you just love those? I'm in love! <3 You can also customize your own dream catcher depending on what color combinations you want to. I will have mine next week and I have the combination of orange and purple because I'm a sucker for these colors. The owner of the shop was really kind because she offered me good deal and I can't wait to get mine next week. I'm not a fan of necklace but this has to be an exceptional. Please check out their online shop @ Shop o' Jewels and tell them I send you :)
