My high heel collection

Here are all the high heels I own (aka my collection).


The shoes I talked about in the last blog. Now in picture ^^ (the Peggy Plaid Pumps)
As you can see, they are plaid and red/white/black. So cute! I plan to (at some point in time) buy a 40's/60's dress that matches.
Here are the yellow/white/black ones, that are the same as the red... but yellow XD
I haven't made plans like with the red ones, mostly because I think these look very cute with jeans.
I got these ones in Føtex for about 150,- (fyi: ",-" stands for kroner in Danish, 100 Danish Krone is about 17 US Dollars).
They don't fit my foot all that well (in the arch). But they look awesome (almost hooker-ish, but cool).
These short heels are my most worn, because they aren't very high and they look cool. I wear them with every type of pant I own and love the pointed toe look these give. They can also be worn for long periods of time because of the height of the heel.








Now these are the pride of my collection. They are the most comfortable high heels I have ever worn. I can wear these for hours on end without any pain. I got them supper cheap (at a discount store in Copenhagen), payed 200,- for them. I also wore these to Heimdal (my prom).

 Although these are a "classic" pair of black heels, they are about a size too small for me :(
I got them from a friend and never got around to getting ride of these classics.










These Iron Fist shoes are the cream-de-la-cream in cute/punk looking shoes. They, like the Peggy Plaid Pumps are a specific type of high heel and take awhile to get used to (if you tend to walk with the tip of your feet, you can't do it with these).
These shoes are still beautiful. They have skulls on the front of them and they have silver "stones/jewels" on the sides, as you can see from the photo.
I don't wear these that often, mostly because they pinch at the front, but they are supper cute and I love them. If I wore them more, they would stop pinching, but for now... blister here I come!









Also got these cute summer shoes are Føtex for about 50,-
They say they are a size 41 (9½-10 US), but they feel like a 39/40... Cute though.

Shoes shoes shoes

So I promised a post about shoes, and here it is:
I have, like every other female, an adoration to shoes. I don't own all that many, but I like them all the same. I resently bought 2 pars of peggy plaid pump, 1 in yellow and 1 in red. They are so cute. Not "my style" but still very cute. The next par of heels I plan to buy are going to be a everyday type, something I could wear everyday to school and around town. Be able to walk over 6 km each day, type of heel (so not very high). Most of the heels I own are a good 10 cm (4") high. Which in the long road are hard to walk with.
But in all reality I should probably not buy any more and save for an apartment instead... But that's not fun...

Apartment thoughts

So... at some point of time I plan to move out of my mothers house and live on my own, like any other person my age. I'm actually behind in the race to be independent. I like the thought that all the money I get (minus rent) gets to be used on whatever I feel like. For example shoes (in reference to the next post I plan to make). But this post is about some of the thoughts I've got on how I'd decorate an apartment. Well, more like how it'd be set up.
First off I'd like to say that the first apartment I'd end up getting won't be very big... maybe around 30m^2 (square meters). Which is an okay size for ones first here in Denmark. Now... What I've been thinking is that I need lots of shelf space. So I was thinking of covering a wall with shelves.
 One of them could have a table in it, like this one (p.s all of them are from Ikea).



Then, you'd have one of these (and you can add "doors" to each square, if you wanted)










Then you'd have these, but lay them down so that you can put things on top of them.





And last but not least is this cool computer table. It can fit up to a 17" computer. It closes so that you can e.g eat on it without having to move your computer. Smart, right?

My dysfunctional family

My family relations are really bad. Not just me being super unsocial, but because after my father got remarried every other child (we are 4 in all) stopped contact with him. I haven't because I like him and don't really mind his new wife. She's different... I'll try not be be racist, but we (my family) are all white, sorry Caucasian. And my fathers wife is Indian (Amercian-Indian, not India-Indian). I'm not holding that against her, but her family is so... Every stereotyping you think of when you think of Indians, her family hits them. I don't know how that happens, but hers did. Now.. we are not used to "non-Caucasian" family types. We are your average family. 1 mother, 1 father, 1 boy and 2,5 girls (1,5 is for us twins... we are the "youngest", even though I'm never treated like the youngest, that is 100% my sisters "duty").

My mom is a chef, my dad is a customs officer. My big sister is a chef, my big brother is in the military... See a pattern? haha... My dad is born on a farm and has two other siblings, as does my mother (he has 2 brothers, she has 2 sisters). They meet in a foreign country... She moved to his country shortly after and lived with his ex for about a month. Sounds like I'm lying, right? But you just can't make this shit up.

They divorced about 8 years ago (I was 13.., no.. 12?). Oh my, did you guess my age?  haha.

Anywho. After they divorced 4 of the 6 family members went to my mothers country of origin. Denmark. My big brother didn't come at the time ONLY because he was in 12th grade. And Denmark only goes to 9. You then go to a secondary school, if thats what you want to do. You can also do 10th, but you don't have to. And then there are trade schools and technical schools and such. I went and did both 10th and secondary school. Now moving on to a trade school. Anywho...

My big brother, big sister and twin sister DO NOT speak to my father. I have no idea why. I've heard the reasons, I don't believe the reasons... but that is not up for discussion. Or so I've been told.

My sister says she was hit by my dads wife. I was there, my dad was there, his wife was there. Nobody remembers her being hit. Only her. Now, I'm not saying it didn't happen, I'm saying I don't believe it was such a big thing, that she is making it out to be.
