Broke promise again...

Finally cleared my cards' bills and I told myself no more shopping... But still, I end up buying things again today... But not for myself but for baby...

Met John after work at J8 to see what to buy for Dad's birthday and while waiting for baby to send us home.. In the end, he already bought it.. Stupid John!! Anyway, I decided not to buy anything for dad but treat him to a nice Teochew restaurant... But still now, still not sure where to go.. Sigh...

Anyway, was passing by Giordano and feels that their new Polo Tees not bad... Ended up buying 2 for baby....



He wears Polo Tees more often and I feel usually Polo Tees will expand after a few washing so no harm buying more for him... Wanted to buy 1 more for him... In light pink and light grey... (I love this combo!!!) but I remembered he got something similar so I give it a miss....

So... Although I went shopping, but it's not for myself but for baby... Am I still consider breaking my promise and ban?? Hmmz.... Really must stop!! Maybe I should just keep my cards at home!!! Haha!!!

Miu Miu...

I have finally decided that I will get asking my dear friend to bring it which LV for me... Then I got to know Miu Miu is cheaper there too!!! Although I am not sure how much it is but definitely cheaper than what local is selling and locally is retailing at SGD1930!!! And Europe carries more colours!!!! And these colours are beautiful....

Thanks to Elaine who showed me a webby of the the colours for 08 and this season.... So, Slowly, using Paint, I put them all together...



Isn't this beautiful??? How to choose right??? After thinking for a few days, I am down with these...



The rest that I "outcast" is because it is of lighter colours thus will get stained easily and the colours being exotic means probably not easy to match clothes or for work... And black is out because still common and not outstanding enough... But still those are very pretty!!!!

Now, with the final 9... Which 1 should I choose?? I really still don't know which to get... Sigh...

More Hypnosis sale....

Was at J8 after work on Friday waiting for baby to pick me up... I knock off at 6, he knocks off at 7 officially (but 6:30pm that day)... So from Jurong Island to J8... Imagine the time taken so i walked around while waiting...

Hypnosis sale and a few other brands at J8 level 2 atrium... The Hypnosis was way better than the one at Isetan last weekend. There was more selections and sizes... Price range from $10 to $20.... And these are what I found...




Actually saw them last weekend at Isetan but doesn't have the sizes....

Went for dinner with baby and his 2 Subaru buddies, Vinson and Stephen... Supposing to go Yishun are to meet up with others but anyway, we ended up having dinner at Causarina Prata place... There was this shop that sells lots of biscuits and tit-bits and bought these...






Old school right?? Baby and I have been looking for the Hiro snacks for very long coz it reminds us of our primary school days... We were from the same primary school but he was my senior... We didn't knew each others back then... We were so high that we found the Hiro snacks!!! Share it with Vinson and Stephen and the 3 guys share the same thoughts.... How come it seems like it has shrink??? Lolx!!! And finally they came to a conclusion... The snack has not shrink but it's themselves who have grown taller and bigger!!! Whahahahah!!!

See baby's expression and you know how high we were... Haha!!!


Vinson got these... Chocolate coin!!!


I also bought this retro feel hairband...


It's feels so good to find the things that we used to like.... Brings back a lot nice memories.... But thinking back, time really flies and don't wait....

It started off with I Nuovi sale...

Met June after work last Friday... Initial plan was to meet at AMK Hub Hong Kong cafe for dinner... In the end, early Friday morning, she already forwarded me some advert that says SALE, 40% off!!! So, we decided to meet up at Bishan instead coz there is an outlet there....

Head straight to I Nuovi and that's where I started spending money... Bought these...





Don't remember how much in total but I paid June 60bucks coz she paid for it 1st... Why?? Coz the total amount was $460+!!! Powerful right??? She can spend just $400 in 1 shop like that!!!! I even managed to buy birthday pressie in advance for Wenyi... Although her birthday is in June, I always have difficulty deciding what to get for her so since now I see something suitable, might as well right?? Paiseh lah... Hehez!!!

Actually our shopping ends here for the night coz she felt that she had overspent and we are both hungry so we headed off to Sakae for dinner...

Next day, I woke up pretty late but managed to rush down to Toa Payoh Polyclinic... Need to see doctor for referral as well as the lump on my back... It is growing even faster and getting more painful for the past 2 weeks!!!

My initial plan was since baby is working and knock off at 3 and he needs to send for his car for servicing... So, I shall go see doctor 1st, then off to Orchard to check out LV and Miu Miu...Why?? Coz I am deciding which to ask my friend to buy from Paris!! Whahahah!!! Went LV... Sort of decided but still stuck between 2 choices... Wanted to hope over to Miu Miu but it was raining.. Argh!!!!!

Before going LV, I went over to Shaw 1st because baby mentioned that his mum saw my foundation cake and asked me to help her buy... But in the end, it isn't what she wanted coz she wanted something with shimmer... Too bad... Walked around Isetan but nothing to buy... And the kuku me, forgot to bring my Isetan vouchers out... Anyway, got this Hyposis top at $10...



Since unable to hop over to Miu Miu, I slowly make my way to the train station and meet baby at the workshop which is pretty near my office. But in the end, suddenly, mood swing... So went into Cotton On and got these for $100...







Crazy right??? I must be... Sigh... Kind of regret because I was supposed to save money for my new bag!!! What's done cannot be undone so I shall live with it... Anyway, half of it is for my baby...

After meeting up with baby, we quickly settle our things, went home to wash up and quickly make our way into JB because Stephen and Vinson were there already... Our plan was to have dinner there and catch a race at Pasir Gudang.... We thought it was a circuit race but it was a drag race instead... But still, never mind.. It's still racing... Haha!! It was pretty interesting to see small little cars with so much power!!! And the most disappointing thing for the night is Subaru lost to Mitsubishi by 1 sec; 11.7sec VS 10.7sec... Sigh...

By the time we got back home, it was already past 3am... ZZZzzz......

Went Ikea on Sunday because baby's mum wanna buy a standing lamp for mahjong session... And I bought this cute little pink stools for my living room... Always not enough seats in the living room... Whahahahah!!!



Was walking and thinking, how should we do baby's room after we got married?? A wardrobe big enough for our clothes, book shelf for my bags, entertainment area for baby's LCD TV and PS3, computer area... OH NO!!! Not enough room for so many things!!! Sianz....

LV or Mui Mui???

Oh no.. A dear friend of mine is going Monaco for work and stopping my Paris before heading back to SG... And she offers to help me buy something from Paris... And now, I am in a dilemma coz I am supposed to not buy anything now and buy the 1 and only bag in June for the whole of 2009... And I decided I wanna buy a Mui Mui matalease lux tote... But now, PARIS!!! LV!!! Oh no..

I am not sure if Mui Mui is cheaper in Paris though... And I am not sure what colour they carry but this is the design I like...


I am not sure what colour they have... But I think I would prefer any basic colour which allows me to match clothes easier for work and out... And the best part, I was told it cost about SGD 2590!!! *Faint*... I was hoping it will go on sale this June so maybe wouldn't be so ex... So now, is will Mui Mui be cheaper in Paris??

When people talks about Paris, bag lovers would instantly thinking of LV, Chanel and Hermes... Chanel and Hermes is out coz way too expensive... Can't afford so I am down to these choices...


Trevi PM. Locally selling at 2510SGD. Paris selling at 1070 Euro... After tax refund and conversion, it should be around 1900SGD.. Meaning a saving of about 600SGD...


Tivoli PM. Locally selling at 1540SGD... Paris selling at 655Euro... After tax refund and conversion, it should be around 1155SGD.. Meaning a saving of almost 400SGD...


Palermo PM. Locally selling at 1660SGD. Paris selling at 705 Euro... After tax refund and conversion, it should be around 1240SGD.. Meaning a saving of about 400SGD...


Neo Cabby MM. Locally selling at 2460SGD. Paris selling at 1090 Euro... After tax refund and conversion, it should be around 1920SGD.. Meaning a saving of about 500SGD...


Epi Montaigne Clutch. Locally selling at 1320SGD. Paris selling at 560 Euro... After tax refund and conversion, it should be around 985SGD.. Meaning a saving of about 300SGD...


Vernis Roxbury. Locally selling at 1570SGD. Paris selling at 670 Euro... After tax refund and conversion, it should be around 1200SGD.. Meaning a saving of almost 400SGD...

I also have my concerns about these bags....

Trevi - It's a heavy bag even when it's empty... So I am afraid that I will regret after buying it, like my Hampstead...

Tivoli, Palermo - The leather will turn colour after some time and I am not sure if I can accept it when that happens...

Roxbury - Afraid that I will accidentally scratch the bag with my nails or my rings... And if that happens, it will be very obvious! The leather will turn colour as well and the bag will lose its glow after some time!!

Neo Cabby - I am not sure if I will use it often or will it suit me... And also afraid that the colour will fade...

Montaigne clutch - Too mature??? And I cant decide between the 2 colour!

So... How?? What should I get? I know Mr Ho will read this... Mr Ho, please do not make a decision and contact my dear friend ok?? I still cannot make up my mind!!!
