We all know there are some things that are eye candy. But these shoes are pure foot candy! Marais USA is a footwear label designed by a female duo in New York. The prices of the shoes are very affordable (think $60), and the styles are adorable! I love how there are loads of colors to choose from.
Anybody tried them out? I’d really love to know how they rate on a comfort level. I want to buy all of them!

I think we all, at one point, were victims of the UGG boot craze. Some of us still are. I thought that trend was going to last for a total of 15 minutes, but to my surprise, this trend is still going strong.
Many brands have branched out with the same design of this boot, some made it wider and thicker, others smaller. But no matter how they look like, you can always guarantee comfort. Whooga Boots UK, are no exception. They come in many different lengths, colors and designs. They employ a design method to cool feet in the summer and warm them in winter maintaining a constant temperature of 22 degrees Celcius (72 F). You don’t want your feet to be too hot!
Whooga boots are also much better priced than others. I could never justify buying the expensive UGG boots at such a high price! I never liked them, and never had a reason to wear them. Especially since we don’t even have much of a winter season in Kuwait.
But after reading LalaLiu’s review of the boots, I think I’m a convert. How about you? UGG boots, do or don’t?
Start your winter shopping early folks. Get your Whooga boots with a $30 discount using promo code POMEGRANAT. They ship worldwide.

My cousin collects everything Coca Cola. He collects vintage and new bottles, posters, memorabilia, everything! Which is why I’m sure he’ll be thrilled to learn that Coca-Cola released 5 limited edition can designs for summer. I don’t know if they’re available everywhere, but I sure hope so.

Last night, my family and I, including my grandmother, gathered around the TV and watched it live (8:00 pm Kuwait time). It was like we were there in person. Personally, I loved it. I thought it was fit for a King, and it was definitely the way he would have wanted to go out. The songs were beautiful, the stage was perfect, and the speeches were touching. By the way, aren’t Michael’s children beautiful? His daughter Paris broke my heart in the end.. I was sobbing!
I’d just like to comment that the media can be so brutal at times. I got online today to read about the memorial, and I was surprised at the amount of negative responses regarding it. Some people thought it was like a concert (well, it sort of was, but it was a tribute to him, so isn’t it only fitting for someone like MJ?), others commented that his children shouldn’t have been put in the spotlight. Well, he’s their father! What, you want them to hide behind the curtains during all of this? They should be there to see how much their father has touched people.
On a final note, I think we should respect someone who has passed on, and honor the dead instead of criticizing them. Let the man have his peace! When I die, I want to be celebrated, not mourned. It’s all right to mourn. In fact, it’s only natural that we mourn a loved one. But I want people to focus on the good things I did, and remember all the happy times we spent together.
How about you? Did you watch the memorial? What did you think?
P.S. Isn’t it eery how Michael’s last show was titled “THIS IS IT”? It’s like he knew this was going to be the last time he will ever perform.
