G.Zanotti VS Asos

clones


Giuseppe Zanotti or ASOS???
Giuseppe Zanotti Sandals
$635 
giuseppezanottidesign.com

OR


ASOS open toe sandals
asos.com 
£45


Ok, they are not exactly identical. The G.Zanotti's sandals (on the left) have a more pale color, thinner heel and spikes. But the concept is pretty much the same: blush pink open toe sandals with fur. 
Which one would you buy?

Happy Snake Year

To be honest, snakes always scared me to death.
Once a snake dance lady from a show literally dropped a huge (real) python on my shoulders. Those 3 minutes felt like 3 hours)) I remember the audience staring at me and laughing. I might have had a very funny face) I touched the heavy serpent on my shoulders and felt sorry for it. To touch it was like an ugly cellophane bag, and then I felt no fear at all. I decided to face my fears and snake print became one of my favorite. 
After all, snake symbolic meaning includes healing, intuition and wisdom.
And I wish you health, patience, balance and wisdom this year!
