Milkfrost Shops | Zalora / Dr Martens

My current pair of Dr Martens has got a small 'opening' some time ago and it's getting slightly bigger.

The other side of it is also starting to have the opening. 

This pair was hand-carried home from Paris by Midas & surprisingly, it lasted only for less than a year compared from the other 2 pairs I bought locally which lasted for 34 months & 28 months respectively.

I am contemplating to change to another brand for work but didn't manage to find anything suitable. After searching for quite sometime, I finally managed to buy a pair from Zalora! Hassle free cos since this is gonna be my 4th pair, I don't need to worry about buying the wrong size. The only bad point about it is, additional accessories like shoe lace, cushion insole are not available.

I can even do the payment with Atome on 3 or 6 installments!

Delivery is coming in from Dr Martens Hong Kong, came within 2 weeks upon check out and on-time delivery! 

Slight dent on the box but shoe came in tip top condition!
Fits perfectly! Hopefully this pair will not give up on me in less than a year!
✌Yeah to being able to buy Dr Martens from Zalora (my virgin purchase) instead of asking friend (if any) to help me get it from Europe, adding on weight to their luggage.

Milkfrost Shops | Dr Martens Shoe Lace

The last time Midas helped me lug back my current pair of Dr Martens, I forgot to ask her to also add on a pair of cushion insole & when I try to order online, the shipping cost is more expensive than the item 😢

Ivy recently went Korea for business trip & passed by a Dr Martens retail shop & asked if I needed anything cos she remembers I wanted something! 

So I asked if she is ok to help me buy a pair of cushion insoles
and 2 pairs (1 pair for my lesbian 😄) of 8-eyed rainbow shoe lace, which she agreed without hesitation! 🩷
Since not working for 2 days before CNY, I decided to balm up my current pair of work shoe
And also balm up my 7.5 year old 8-eyed boots, fit in my new rainbow shoelace too!
New look, new life.. and I think it looks quite cute too!

Thanks Ivy for remembering I wanted something from Dr Martens, buying it (when you have not even started with your own shopping) & lugging it back home from Korea!

 

Milkfrost Shops | Dr Martens 1461 Smooth Leather Oxford Shoe

My existing pair of 19 months old Dr Martens is slowing wearing off but sadly, Dr Martens have left Singapore market. I've been trying to get friends in Malaysia to help me check if it's available in their market but to no avail. I even had to ask friend to check out for me in Korea cos she's going for holiday in September!

Magically, Midas happened to be in Paris/ London for holiday & I grabbed the chance to ask if she can help me get one pair for work and she agreed to check for me without any hesitation! 

Although she didn't manage to get for me in London but managed to get for me in Paris. However, she didn't manage to get the pair of slip resistant design that I'm wearing it now. As she is ditching the box to conserve her luggage space & weight, she took a couple of picture & sent it to me first 😅Finally collected my new pair of Dr Martens 1461 Smooth Leather Oxford Shoe with add-on 2 pairs of shoelaces!Keeping it aside cos hoping my existing pair can still last for a couple of months to meet the 2 years mark (previous pair lasted for 32 months!). But yeah, to new work shoes!Thanks, Midas for lugging such a pair of heavy shoes back, all the way from Paris!

 

Milkfrost Shops | Converse All Star & Dr Martens

 Saw this pair of Converse Unisex Chuck Taylor All Star Lift in Rainbow print on Lazada & got my eyes hooked on it! Went to the outlet at IMM but they do not carry this design. The sales staff told me to either try other branches or buy online as stock for this design is very limited.Thus, I went ahead to order it from Lazada after trying on & confirming the shoe size at IMM branchItem was delivered within 5 working days of ordering (toy not included)!Let's take a closer look.Even sole of the shoe also pretty!Quite chio eh?!Few days later, as I was buying a new pair of shoelace from Dr Martens for my existing pair of work shoe
I also bought a set of shoe care kit.And I spotted this pair of very cute shoelace that has got lots of ❤ prints. This is from the series collaboration between Dr Martens & Betty Boop OMG! I think the shoelace matches quite well with the Converse!
