Tieks ReVisTeD!! (Update)

Last month, I had blogged about my latest shoe obsession which were the ballet flats by the brand Tieks. I was so in love with the Rose Gold Glam pair that I had decided to purchase them. After sleeping on the idea for a few weeks, I decided to bite the bullet and finally purchase the Ballerina Pink flats instead.

Ballerina Pink

The late purchase was merely due to the fact that I was still on the fence with regards to their sizing. (Details about their sizing is availabe in this post Tieks .. My latest OBSESSION!!!) I feel the sizing is too vague and since I am living abroad, it's not as easy as it is for residents in the United States to send them back. For this reason, I decided to go for the size 7 although I am a US size 6.5 in most American shoes.

I for one, didn't want to invest a load of money on my very first purchase in case size 7 is a big fit and didn't want to order size 6 as it might be too snug. AND if you know me - you know that I am a sucker for comfy fit shoes. My pet peeve is wearing a shoe that has hard sole or one that gives me blisters!! I feel that if your feet are not happy, it does affect your mood. Happy feet makes a happy me!!

I am still waiting for the flats to be shipped out. Once I receive them, I will definitely do a review on them after trying them out and if they are really worth all the hype and money!!

If I am happy with the fit of these ballet flats, I will surely order the Rose Gold Glam! I think they are too classy to forget .. you know what I mean, don't you!?!

Do watch this space for a sequel to this post!!

Loads of love,
