Forever21 3D Floral iPhone 5 Case

ordered this iPhone5 case from the Forever21 site and I have to say I love it! It's made from a soft silicone material which will be very protective in case of drops. I also love the color, it is more or less a coral pink shade. I've been wanting one from Switcheasy, but they only produced their 3d floral case for iPhone4.  I prefer this to the hard plastic material as I've come to discover they tend to chip easily. 


Kitty Flats: Charlotte Olympia vs Zara


Being a cat lover, I had a major obsession with the Charlotte Olympia kitty flats when they first came out! I was finally able to nab a pair from Bergdorf Goodman online (still available in select sizes here, and also in fuchsia here) for $282.50 when they went on sale.. which is 50% off original price of $565.  They are unbelievably comfortable with no break-in period required.  I would recommend to order the next half size up, so I ended up with a 37. 

Then I came across these kitty flats by Zara.  Unfortunately, they only come in girls sizes up to 5.  They were too cute to pass up and were only $35.90.  I bought the size 5 and I think they are an equivalent to a women's 7.  They don't possess the same craftsmanship as Charlotte Olympia.  They are a little stiff, and will probably require heel pads because they might blister my feet.  I'll probably keep these and use them as a back up pair and not worry about dirtying them.
