Try this one… 
I found this cool site about different quizzes to gauge your personality, intelligence etc. I tried one which is knowing the type of shoes I am.
And they said, I am a loafer… seems like laid back huh? but as I’ve read the explanation… I kinda agree. I think of mysef as somehow competitve and serious on some things like before, when I was still studying and now in my professional life. I still want to achieve more. I am passionate in learning.
But when it comes to friends and families, I am really a soft person. If I can just give them everything they want, I will.

fashion,
shoes,
style Here we go on one of my fetishes! S-H-O-E-S! I have been to different malls lately to buy this perfect pair of shoes that I will be using on my friends party. I was doing my window shopping on the different stalls and boutiques and then it suddenly hit me that I’ve been buying shoes for myself for how many years now but still dont know what to call a specific shoe type. Why do I always use this generic term “shoes”? Can I use pumps, loafers, wedges or any other terms instead? How?
So I did my research and came up with this “basic” shoe style guide for everyone. I dont know if everyone knows this and I am the only human in this planet that doesn’t have any idea on it. ouch!
1. Stilletos
High-heeled, pointed and thin. These are really sexy and feminine which is a good pair for your evening dresses. Also perfect for night out clubbing.
2. Sandals
Open-toed, open at the back and has a single or multiple straps. Can be used to pair up your casual dresses or even your sexy evening wear.
3. Mary Jane
Traditionally, Mary Janes are usually a rounded-toed, low heeled shoe with a cross strap on the middle top but now Mary Janes can be of any height or be high-heeled too. Seeing those Mary Janes really takes us back on our school days when we are still wearing our cute uniforms.
4.Peep Toe Shoe
Has a small opening at the tip, just a small opening to show off the toes but not the whole toe line.
5. Wedge
The heel extends from the back up to the front. Can have single or multiple strappings.
6. Pumps
Low cut shoes without any straps or fastenings.
7. Ballerina Flats
A flat-heeled, enclosed and low-cut shoes. Easy to slip-on and leaves the top of your foot exposed. A very comfortable type of shoes.
8. Mule
It is a slip-on, exposed at the back but covered in the front.
9. Platform
Thick soles right under the foot and usually combined with wedges or heels.
