I have been looking high and low for the perfect summer shoes for a long time now. I have a closet full of pretty summer dresses waiting for me to wear them. But like most females I have a area on my body I really don't like too much,my short chubby legs, not to forget to mention I'm only 157 cm tall ( or short).Therefor, I have not been able to wear my dresses yet because it looks quite weird together with flat shoes, I badly needed a pair of heels to rock my dresses!
I have been looking all around Seoul in all the hot shopping spots without even spotting a single pair of heels I want to buy. Either they are weird looking, or their heels are crazy high and impossible for me to wear. I kinda gave up and said to myself "well, maybe I just have to go this summer with my chubby legs and no heels?"
But after remembering I could look online I spend some hours, again thinking I could give up, searching both ebay,european shopping pages, american shopping pages without any luck. For my last try I checked 11street again to see if they had what I need. And guess what!! I found the perfect pair for me.
The pictures taken from their seller.
First of all, I love sandal heels which seems very popular this season (You can see them everywhere in Seoul right now!) and I also love shoes with straps. It got everything in my criteria = staps, heels that are not too hard to walk in, cool detail (red under), easy to match with clothes and of course it will look great with my dresses!
It got delivered very quickly, when the delivery guy called me a almost runned upstairs to the hairdresser that recived my paracels because I were soooo excited to see my new shoes. I kinda felt like a child at christmas eve. I was so excited I even forgot to take photo of my paracel before I ripped it open.
And they were as pretty as in the photoes. So first thing I did when I opened the paracel was to put them on,and take photoes to show to my facebook friends (hoping many would click "like" button because they are so cute!!)
My shoe from the side. They look more white in this photo, but they are beige color. I prefer not having all white because they look more dirty easilly.
View from the back of my shoes. The heels were actually higher than I tought they would be, but because the platform at the front also is high its not that bad when putting them on, still good to wear.
From the top. You can see it has gold inside! Very luxerious feeling right? It's like a combination of party heels and everyday heels. Can be used many different outfits, from casual to more dressed up, maybe a night out with the girls in Hongdae??
From the side again without my weird looking foot.
I'm very pleased with this buy. The shoes will be perfect for me during this summer. And I could also reccomend this kinda shoes for those females out there who are not used to wearing high heels but want to try getting used to it. They are easy to walk in, but still give you that extra hight to make you feel alittle more attractive and give you a boost of self confident which all females could use now and then.

Purchasing:
Purchasing from this seller was very easy. Just choose model you want to buy ( my shoes are model ATA-3127) and the color if it has options, then chose your size. I paid 42,000 Won total for my pair which is a good price for female shoes. The seller has also so many different shoes to chose from, it actually hard to pick only one pair, but thats the life of a poor student right?
Shipping:
The shipping was very fast. I recieved it after only few days, think it was two days if I'm not wrong. So I have nothing to complain about the shipping.
Product:
The product is good! It seems to be of a great quality. And one of the problems I have had before with Korean heels is that they don't fit me right and I cannot wear it. My feet are not too big, but mostly too wide for Korean heels. So I have many times ended up buying heels I cannot wear more than a few hours before they end up in my closet and never see sunlight every again. But these heels actually, suprisingly fit me as a glove. So if you are a western like me with elefant feet I would buy from this seller also.
Will I buy from again?
Yes,yes,yes!! I totally going to save the link for this seller for next time I'm buying high heels here in Korea. Not only is the price and quality good, they can actually fit me! What more can a girl ask for?
What kinda heels will you use this summer???
I will use these!
