Comfort meets Fashion : Fold-Up Flats

Illustration from SUILTSOY

I've been wearing flats since my college days. Up to this day, I'm still in search for the most comfortable flats. I recently came across to Ms. Jenni E's site and learned about the Samara flats by Yosi Samra. Before we left for our family vacation, I purchased a pair to test if these will surpass the rapid walking in Hong Kong.

They have an array of  leathers, satin, patents and suede in different designs and colors.

Foldable and it comes with a pouch. Perfect for travelling!

Indeed they're the most comfortable ballet flats ever (at least to me. teehee!). They're soft and lightweight. They fit perfectly and identical to barefoot walking. Truly the ideal counter balance to killer heels.

This shot was taken on our last day. My feet are still happy :)

At least I have something in common with these famous hollywood celebrities. Teehee! ;)
Celebrity fans like Anne Hathaway, January Jones, Jessica Alba, Ashley Greene, Audrina Patridge
and many more all adore their Samaras. 

I must say they're really a good buy. And their reasonably priced. So peeps grab your pair/s now!

Until my next pair of Yosi Samra :)

They're available at GAS in Greenbelt 3 and Trinoma Mall.

Packing List

Illustration by Caitlin McGauley

It was our first family out of the country vacation this last holiday season. And we couldn't think of another place to go to other than Hong Kong. We simply love being there. We love their food, weather and of course shopping! ;)

Packing for yourself was easy but packing for a baby/toddler was a challenge (especially when you're a first timer like me). So I sought for an advice from our good friend, Audrey,  since she has travelled several times with his son.

Let me share with you the things we brought. You can download here. Hope this will be helpful for your future travels :)

P.S. the quantity listed is good for 4 days and 3 nights.

We surely enjoyed our vacation. I must say, this is the best family vacation ever! so far ;)
