Slippers

July is here and so is the Shanghai rain season. It´s time dusk of the blog dust.
I did not like the Birkenstock trend at all when it first took off. It´s amazing how much influence Phoebe Philo has on the fashion world. She puts it out there, the power bloggers pick up on it and you can guarantee it´s a mega trend. Of course they grew on me like many other strange-at-first trends but not enough for me to go and buy a pair.
That said I did buy these Birkenstock inspired slippers from H&M recently (busted). They are crazy comfortable and I honestly think they are nicer than the Birks. Since they are not made of leather (surprise) it´s taking a slight longer time to walk them in, but I am getting there and am used to having my feet covered in blisters anyway (the mosquito's have a thing for me smelly feet). The other pair is from my current favourite shop in Shanghai, Urban Revivo. Those on the other hand are made from leather and are very comfortable as well. I am so proud of myself.
