Review on Dr. Martens Pascal Boots as seen on Hyoyeon.

Dr. Martens offers a large range of boots that you can check out right here.

I bought these boots after a friend’s recommendation, and seeing how they were so stylish I did not think twice about it! Thank goodness these boots are absolutely amazing and I didn’t have to regret it.

I have a lot of good things to say about these boots so here they are:

The boots are very well made and are sturdy as the soles are sewn to the shoes instead of being glued on. They are also very durable and have lasted with me for about two years now. On top of that, they’re stylish and either match with your outfit, or make your outfit look better.They are absolutely comfortable and give great foot support, which is something i definitely look for in good shoes.

However, it does need some breaking in as it is leather and it’s quite stiff when you first buy it, but that’s only natural. Also, socks should be worn with these boots to avoid chafing of the back of your heel so it can get really hot when you wear them in the summer- it’s perfect in the winter! It’s pretty expensive too but you’re definitely paying for quality stuff

Thus, it’s a great pair of boots to invest in, considering it’s durability and the comfort it brings. I personally feel that these boots are a must-have and i’ll definitely be getting another pair soon!

Review: Harajuku Lovers Monster Space Age In-Ear Headphones

Review on the Harajuku Lovers Monster Space Age In-Ear Headphones as seen with  Sunny.

Here’s what comes with the earphones:

  • 5 clip-on body colors
  • Retractable cord keeper
  • Multiple eartip sizes
  • Heart-shaped compact case

Well, there are both good and bad sides to these cute and stylish headphones so i’ll just start with the advantages! These headphones are pretty comfortable, as all in-ear headphones are, and you can choose which size of the eartip fits your ear the most.

The sound quality is also pretty decent, considering it’s much cheaper than some other headphones such as Beats or even the Apple In-Ear Headphones.

In addition, the compact case is practical and convenient to store your headphones properly. I feel that the retractable cord keeper was a good idea but… well I’ll get to that soon.

Now for the disadvantages. One of the major drawbacks for these headphones is the retractable cord keeper. Despite the concept of it being clever in the way that it is supposed to avoid tangling, sometimes the wire gets tangled in the cord keeper, making it totally troublesome. Occasionally it even gets jammed and really messy. Also, it has a tendency to retract by itself when you’re walking, causing the earphones to get pulled out of your ears. Of course you’re meant to clip it on but seriously, it’s a little troublesome to keep having to clip it on all the time. It’s hard to patiently untangle the wire from the cord keeper.

Also, the paint on the earphones chips off pretty easily so you have to keep them properly when they’re not in use. ( Well, that’s what the case is for!)

Well all in all, the sound quality, the looks and the comfort of the headphones are fine but for me, the retractable cord keeper is a major drawback. Then again, I’m very impatient. So, if you’re fine with it then i think it would be a great investment!

Review: Salvatore Ferragamo Varina Ballerina Flats

Review on Salvatore Ferragamo Varina Ballerina Flats as seen with Jessica.

Well, I must say that this is my all time favorite- the Salvatore Ferragamo Varina Ballerina Flats.These flats are absolutely amazing for any occasion, they’re suitable for a casual trip to the mall or even a date at a fancy restaurant. I had never been too big a fan of Ferragamo, until these shoes blew my mind (excuse the exaggeration). There are also many designs so you can take a look here.

They’re very comfortable and give great foot support which is necessary in every shoe. Also, these shoes are elegant and classy and can match almost any outfit. Not only that, they are also durable and sturdy as mine have lasted since about a year and a half ago and they still look lovely.

However, like every other shoe out there, these shoes need to be broken in. On the bright side, i think it’s all worth it. Also, these shoes are really quite pricey, but i feel that they are a good investment, considering how long they last.

All in all, I feel that these are a fantastic pair of shoes and i can understand why Jessica would use them. They suit anybody’s style and are versatile. Although they have some drawbacks, i do think that they are still worth it.
