The Gray, the Taupe and Melissa? Huh? :-P

I kept this pair of Karim Rashid collaborated w/ Melissa heels for the longest time ( 09' collection ) and I didn't plan to divulge the fact that I had them until now!! :P


Why? 
First, too many shoes that I even forgot all about them.  Oh, yup, that's unusual to me as I always wear my newest purchases ASAP.  
Second, the velvet and pointed/slightly squared toe stopped me from wearing them! 

However, come to think about it, I adore my squared toe Alexander McQueen satin heels very much, don't I!!  Besides, I am loving looking fresh and different all the time, so to speak, then why not giving this Melissa heels a try!! ^O^

It is not Mellisa's trademark..."plastic" but "velvet"!!

Unexpected encounter ..
Do you know that 80% of our vegetables and fruits are pollinated by busy bees!!!!?
W/O them, we can't enjoy as much food as we do now. 
Therefore, if you can walk or bike, don't drive.... ... one of ways to help to fight the air pollution and to keep bees alive! :)

Make a Wish w/ Russia Babushka doll!!

My friend, Michelle asked me about my opinion of Chanel Babushka doll's necklace once and I said "Not worth getting it"!! Now I am not so sure if I would say the same thing to this adorable babushka doll clutch!! lol However, even I want to find it, this doll clutch is probably long gone by now!! I have a real Russia Babushka doll made in Russia which is a gift from 10 years ago! I couldn't find the same one in USA since this set of 15 nesting dolls are truly intricate!! This is the biggest one which has the most exquisite engraving. Total 15 of them! (2 are missing from the pic.) I heard that you can make a wish w/ these nesting dolls. If your wish comes true, you can open one until all 15 are all open!! I never made any wish w/ them, guess I was too realistic of a person myself. I don't know if each engraved temple/castle on the dolls represents something. You can't open the smallest one which is only the size of the little finger nail. I adore those golde
