Interesting Stuff at Marella

I popped in briefly in Marella Boutique in the Avenues Phase II the other day and was quite impressed to find some nice accessories suitable for someone with a simple, classic, and elegant taste. Like these cute dusty pink and brown flats with 6 tassels details, they looked like a toned-down version of Louboutin's  Tasselissimo suede shoes. And found this crystals and ribbons necklaces, I haven't tried it out so I'm not sure how it sits on the neck.
