For some reason I have a magical talent for wearing out my shoes in record time. The comfortable* everyday office pumps seem to break a heel within the first year, if not already in the first 6 months.

I have come to the conclusion that I don’t want to spend too much money on the pair that I am likely to wear out in no time.

A decent office pair therefore translates to roughly $100. Would you agree?

Mollini

Mollini Mary Janes

Once again I am facing the the sad reality of losing my lovely black Mollini Mary Janes that have served me so well.

Enough heel to make them worth my while and always add that delightful naughty school girl edge to any outfit. I loved them with all my heart.

[Insert here uncontrollable sobbing]

I was trying to buy a new pair to replace them, but of course Mollini no longer have my size left in the entire country.

I should learn to buy two pairs of everything. Just in case I happen to REALLY like them.

ZU Pacific

Last week I managed to find a new pair of office heels.

I don’t think I’ve ever managed to find anything I like at ZU, but this tan pair was just irresistibly cute.

The fact that they were on sale for $91 made them a bargain, and I just had to take them home.

Not quite as nice as my late black Mary Janes, but teamed up with a pair of white knee highs they’re sure to do the trick.

Now did I buy two pairs of them? Of course not. Now watch me regret in 6 months and counting down…

(* As comfortable as 4-5 inches can be that is.)
