Shoe Feature of The Month.Shoe Dazzle Review

Well if it isn't a surprise. Shoe Dazzle has now caught my attention. I recently decided to give it a try and order my first pair.

Now where is this shoe? 

Ah, there she is.

The Erin Shoe!

I wore these to the fashion show for the first time and surprisingly they were super comfortable the whole night. If I were to jump double dutch I could in these (Yup, I've jumped rope in heels before). The heels are 3.25 inches in height, so they are not too high and does fit well. 

Personally for me, when buying/ordering a pointed toe shoe I tend to go a size up if it looks narrow. Lord, knows my little piggies will not make it to the market and will certainly "cry weeh weeh weeh all the way home".

I normally wear a size 6 1/2 -7 depending on the make of the shoe. At times I manage well with a 6. For these I ordered a 7 just to be safe and I'm glad I made that choice.

It is a faux leather shoe but doesn't appear so faux or cheapy looking. Really nice and not stiff. It has pyramid studs which gives it a little edge, which I love.

The detailing and the stitching were well intact and made superbly well. No damages or skid marks at all. This is a great shoe.

These are almost similar to the Valentino shoes which if I had Valentino money I would buy them. But these would do for now. See the Valentino's below.

I love being a girl!

I gotta say I am glad I ordered from Shoe Dazzle. I thought I would have issues and get a cheap looking shoe in the mail. But, that did not happen. They shipped my shoe in a pretty pink sliding box with the shoe in a Shoe Dazzle dust bag and my invoice in case I want to return. No need for that, she's a keeper.

Naturelle Me...Sunday Modest Feature!

I am so late with this post, I know. Sorry!

It was such a beautiful Sunday morning and I have all the reasons to thank God. Even when the body is weak, the spirit is willing and boy my spirit was willing. That is why I thank God every chance I get for awakening my spirit, getting me up each morning and starting my day. I was not feeling well whatsoever and did not want to get out of bed. I was getting hit with aches. A fever that was on and off and a sore throat. I felt terrible!

But my spirit was not having it at all. It was pushing me to get up and go to church. I obeyed. Got myself together, and said Lord I am going to praise you anyhow, despite how I feel. So, I phoned a friend to see if I can hitch a ride with her and visit her church. I am so glad I went. There was some coughing here and there while in worship, but that did not hinder me from giving God praise. I was feeling better. My throat wasn't as sore as it was before and I didn't feel as achy as I was that morning. I don't have much of my voice back yet but I know I will regain it soon.

I got a great word on God's faithfulness even when we are faithless. That is something most of us must work on. Having faith and stepping out on faith as well as looking to please God and not people. Lastly, to know that when God has done great things for you before, he will do it again. So don't doubt. Keep pressing and trust in him to help you reach the unreachable and do the impossibles that you thought could not be done. He is a can do God, not a can't do God. He's so able. His word says it in  Ephesians 3:20 Now unto him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us. (King James Version) Also here in 2 Corinthians 6:8 Besides, God is able to make every blessing of yours overflow for you, so that in every situation you will always have all you need for any good work.(International Standard Version). So go on ahead and have faith and trust in the Lord. Watch and see how much you can conquer. You're in good hands and Allstate sure can't give you that, lol!

And now, my Sunday Modest Feature 
Enjoy, and feel free to comment.
