Some of you might find the above picture familiar as I posted a similar one on Instagram to feature my Paddlepop gradient fingernails and turquoise toenails. How lucky that I wasn't wearing flip flops that day but my Mimosa slippers or I would be embarrassed to feature my toe nails in sloppy flip flops.
Other than slippers, I particularly love these bejewelled sandals from Mimosa. They are beautiful and the cushioned base feel really comfortable. The best of all is that most of these good quality and beautiful sandals cost as low at $19.90 with some on sale at $15.90.
These ballerina flats seem comfortable and stylish enough for work. Ever since I sprained my left foot, I was not able to wear heels. I've been wearing my Mimosa slippers with ankle guard the past few weeks. It is time to change to proper flats for the office or everyone would just wonder why my ankle is taking such a long time to heal.
[Aside: It is really a fact that my ankle still hurts... but people seemed to be always asking why hadn't my ankle recovered =(]
Mimosa footwear ranges from $19.90 to $35.90 with a handful of autumn-winter boots costing $45.90. That is rather cheap for boots too.
I haven't featured any heels here as I feel quite sad knowing that I won't be able to wear heels for quite some time. For more variety of shoes, browse Mimosa's catalogue now.
[This is a scheduled post.]
Jo, you will be able to wear heels again soon... don't push it too quickly as you don't want to get injured again...
ReplyDeleteIn the meantime, the flats and jeweled sandals are incredibly cute... have a lovely week ahead :)
Thank you for your sweet comment, Launna. I hope there isn't even a tinge of pain soon coz I miss my heels so much.
DeleteVery pretty manicure and pedicure! Love the gradient look on your fingernails!

Thank you for your sweet words, dear.
DeleteI love your paddlepop gradient nails <3 looks pretty, please make a tutorial for me ^_~
ReplyDeleteOh dear. I can't make a tutorial for you coz I got these gelish done at the salon. Hehehe...I know some beauty bloggers use sponge to blend the colours but the lady who did it for me used her fingers to dab and blend. Fortunately, I couldn't see her fingerprints.
DeleteHaha we have both done shoe posts! Psychic friends network world wide :) Yours is very cool dear! xoxo

Thank you for your sweet words, dear. Love seeing newcomers around!
DeleteSo sorry to hear that you sprained your foot! Hope you feel better soon! Don't worry for not being able to wear heels for some time. There are so many beautiful pairs of flat shoes. I love wearing sandals and those from Mimosa are super cool! Too bad it's autumn here and I have to switch to ballerinas and boots... Your nails are extraordinary, how did you make that manicure?

Thank you for your sweet comment. I hope there isn't even a tinge of pain soon coz I miss my heels so much. I love wearing pretty flat sandals and slippers but there aren't any suitable for office wear. Hence, the only way out are ballerina flats.
DeletePS: I did those gelish at the salon.
You will do it in time doll, you don't want to injure yourself again! These are all really gorgeous choices, I would wear many of them myself :)) I hope you have a beautiful new week :) xx
ReplyDeleteThank you for your sweet comment, doll. I don't want to injure myself again coz I miss my heels so much.

Hello Milu. Thank you for your lovely comment as usual. By the time I reply to all my comments on the post, I'm always a step late. I replied you about my ankle on the instagram post when you asked awhile back. The first fall was because the road had a parallel line of depression before the divider and I was jaywalking. Hence while looking out for cars, I stepped into the slight trench and fell on the road divider. The 2nd time, the heels did it! It was because of the deep hold in the road that my heel went in which caused the fall. I've been wearing flats for the longest time ever after those falls.
DeleteOh I hope your ankle heals soon!
ReplyDeleteI hurt my ankle last year by falling down some stairs and they didn't recover for months.. and even when they felt 'okay', I would do one wrong movement and the pain would come back >:| haha. Either way, your choice of sandals and flats look awesome! I wish I could get away with wearing flats more ..but I just need that little height boost :P
Oooh... I totally understand how you feel. The overall pain would be gone but at certain angles or if you land on the wrong foot, the pain would just come back all over again. Are you a newcomer here, Melody? I thought your profile pic looks familiar but I couldn't recognize your blog when I clicked. Were we already acquainted from back then?

DeleteFeet! Yuck!!! ;P J/k, your feet are fine. As for your nails, they're awesome. I'm sorry about your ankle. The people who think it should be healed should help by pushing you around in a wheel chair so your ankle can heal (and your heal can ankle :).
ReplyDeleteThe Mimosas are stylish. I'm pretty sure my wife will like them!
I love your retort to those people! Lol... If only mean bitch Jo could emerge to say that. Granted, some are genuinely concern about how long it is taking though some seem to be asking in a condescending and disbelieving tone.
DeleteYour mimosa sandals are so pretty Jo! I love the flower embellishments. Pretty nail polish on your toes! What an exquisite blue. Mimosa has a very nice selection.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your sweet comment, Kim. I love this colour on my toes too!
DeleteHey Jo, even though I wear heels on my blog but in real life, I wear flats all the time. The ballerina flats look really cute! Aww, I'm sorry to hear that you hurt your ankle. It sucks. I hope your ankle heals soon. Take Care!

Thank you for your sweet comment, dear. I don't want to injure myself again coz I miss my heels so much. I think many people love to take photos on heels though they wear flats quite often too. That's quite normal. I know of bloggers who would take OOTD shots in heels and then change to a more comfy shoes to go out.
Deletethank you for comment, dear
