#33, 34 & 35 - Catching Up

I haven't posted in a few days, but I've still been doing my shoe challenges. I've actually gotten through about a quarter of my shoes already, I think? So I probably should slow down or I'll be finished soon! (Or maybe I just need to buy a lot more shoes...)I have had skirt envy a couple of times this week. Skirts are probably my favourite clothing items, and I've seen girls wearing some really pretty ones this week. I'm sometimes tempted to ask where they got them from, but I can never bring myself to do it. Anyway, I got my blog name from this skirt I'm wearing here. It was the last one in the store when I bought it, and one of the girls working there said to me "You're the lucky cinderella," and I thought it was cute.

My shoes are from Diana Ferrari, which I think is an Australian brand. I have a theory that a lot of Australian shoe brands have Italian-sounding names to give people the impression that their shoes are good quality (because people tend to associate quality shoes with Italy)...

I absolutely love this skirt - I wish I could wear it all the time! It's longer than most of the skirts I own, which makes it a bit warmer and more suitable for Winter, and it has been getting cooler this week. I'm glad there's a trend for longer (midi, tea-length) skirts at the moment.

My shoes are from Prada, and their story is that I bought them when I was in Canada late last year, because I really wanted the Miu Miu shoes I wore earlier on in the shoe challenge, but I couldn't find them in a store (I ended up getting them online later). They're really lovely, but I broke a few of my shoe rules by buying them (ie don't spend over $500 on a pair of shoes, don't buy too many pairs of sandals because they're not practical, don't buy expensive sandals).

I felt very colourful wearing this today... Maybe too colourful, especially as it was a grey, rainy day. But that could also be seen as a reason to wear bright colours!

My shoes are from a local brand, Alan Pinkus. I like their shoes, but I do think they're overpriced, and these particular shoes are basically copies of the red Valentino shoes I wore earlier in the shoe challenge. Anyway, I usually make sure not to wear satin shoes on days when it's likely to rain, but unfortunately I couldn't predict the weather today, and these shoes got really wet. I just hope they'll dry and won't be permanently damaged, because I have surprisingly few pairs of blue shoes and I need all of the ones I can get!
