Mommy and Me Shoes

We just came from a lovely brunch with former housemates last week at Wild Honey...


...and were walking around the basement of Paragon when I stopped short because I saw such great-looking kicks. The same kicks Daphne Osena-Paez bought during her recent Shanghai trip - Feiyue.

Now Daphne apparently got hers cheap in Shanghai but I got a good deal as well. The brand was part of the Mothercare bazaar and they were actively targeting moms by offering 30% off on any two pairs bought. They had such cute designs for kids and for adults that we bought a pair each, one for my toddler and one for myself.

I chose the designs for Lexi to try on but the kid has style opinions already! She tried a plain red canvas (like the design I chose), a plain pink canvas and a blue hi cut style. When we asked her what she liked it was quite obvious since she wouldn't let us take off her blue Feiyues anymore. It was much harder to choose for myself since there weren't a lot of designs in my size but I eventually decided on a plain red canvas design.

Lexi and I both love our Feiyues. She keeps jumping up and down in her shoes and who can blame her. These Feiyues have crazy soft soles (they're kung fu shoes) and I would love to get more but maybe I'll wait until I get a chance to get to Shanghai to get them on the cheap. Here's hoping!

Baby clothes for a song

I have been on a baby clothes embargo ever since we came back to Singapore. What with the new clothes gifted to the kids over Christmas as well as the clothes I bought for them in the various bazaars I've been to, they actually still have a lot of new clothes to wear. However, I couldn't help buying a couple more new ones (for future use) when we went shopping recently at Song and Song in Lucky Plaza. The clothes are quite cheap (think 5 dollars per top!) and if you take the time to go through the racks there are a couple of really cute ones.

Here's what I bought for the kids:


I also saw some really nice boys' long-sleeved tees with robots and dinosaurs but unfortunately the sizing was either too large for my 6 month old or too small for my 2 year old. I was only able to get this bear on the scooter tee in the right size. Still, quite a nice haul for only 20 dollars.
