Sperry X Keds: Ipanema Billabong (In an Order)

last Friday 30th June

was the last day

to make use of the

promo code provided by

my beloved telco

*

yay or nay

i have been eyeing

these kicks for sometimes

then i told myself that

if i didn’t manage to

loot any sneaker from Tokyo

*

then i shall proceed to

check out the cart

once i got back from Tokyo

*

so here i was

checking out these items

on a Friday night and

they were on their way

pretty soon on the next day

  * 

and i have actually

removed a few unnecessary items

including a MNG X Bugs Bunny

pullover which is cute but

kinda impractical for me

*

i fell for it at first sight in-store

and waited so long for the mark down

you can imagine the pain

when i removed it from my cart

  *

and a pair of Aldo loafer

as well as few dresses

which i don’t think i will

never wear in months to come

*

let me explain about

the tank top

it’s for my upcoming Krabi trip

*

and Ipanema was a total accident

i have not been buying Ipanema

for a long time

and it has been our favourite

for at least a decade i think

*

and i have never tried

their strap sandals

when i was hesitating

on Friday itself

my cousin came in a pair

*

and she said it’s super comfy

she stopped buying flip flops

after she discovered these

*

okay have faith in my cousin

that’s what i can at least do

being an anti-socialist

who find it awkward to

talk to my cousin

at least we have something

in common to talk to now

oh yeah

*

ordered on Friday night

shipped on Saturday evening

and soon Monday afternoon

here they are at my doorstep

*

my phone was on silent mode

like as always

and i was busy working away

thank goodness

i have left them my mom’s

as back up because

worst comes to worst

my phone is on flight mode

*

silent mode is a rare case

because i only turn it on

when i am expecting a parcel

*

Monday afternoon is

not a good timing for parcel

because the whole family is around

it’s very likely that

i will get condemned

and it’s a bloody huge parcel

*

so i hid them outside

and took them in

when everyone was busy

later in the evening

*

and declared that

i bought a pair of Ipanema

they got so damn surprised

because it doesn’t look like

my usual cup of tea

*

i was casually saying that

it’s okay

for everyone to share

whoever needs shoes can have them

*

pheww..

in fact..

i have no idea

why the boxes got so crumpled

*

but thank goodness

the contents are fine

well they should!!

  *

i am in the middle of trimming

the shapes on my Ipanema sandals

i know i know it’s similar to

the iconic Issey Miyake shapes

but i can’t stand the fact that

it’s also similar to durian
