Daiso loot...

A trip to the discount Japanese store, Daiso, produced a banana case(hey, it really is useful for packing a super ripe banana!), HB pencils(for my niece), lemon milk candies(I love lemon so much, so when you say 'lemon', I say 'yes'!!! Seriously, I love anything lemon and lemon flavored.), bubble gum flavored soda(English label at the store said lemon soda, so I bought it.  I also think the bottle is cute!), and lastly, plum tea(I love tea, but this is a salty plum tea, it just tastes gross, I want to throw it away. It's that bad.)
I remembered my father used to buy me HB pencils when I was little.  He would usually come from trips from HongKong or Japan and he would bring me Sanrio HB pencils.  HB for me writes the best.  It's darker compared to the others like 2B. This happened so frequently that I learned to collect pencils... with different cute designs. (Hmm, I should do a blog about that!) 
The light blue bottle of this bubble gum flavored soda is so unique! There's also weird and wonderful characters on the label.  So funny and cute!  Gotta love those Japanese... they are so creative!

Polish it up!!!

I was able to go to the department store yesterday and looked at some nailpolish.  I got so excited with the colors that I bought seven of 'em! Now that's a  new record for me! I usually buy just 1 or 2 at a time.  I feel so guilty! 
Top, left to right: Caronia-Italian Nude, Baby Pink, Trance, Caress-Obsession.
Bottom, left to right: Bobbie-Star Gazer, Charmed, Caress-Christmas Polka.
I applied the Caronia-Trance then topped it with Bobbie-Star Gazer. This reminds me of the starry night sky.  I'm lovin' the shimmer and glitters! I'll be posting pictures of my mani  as I try out the other colors!

Shoes of my dreams

These Fall 2011 shoes by Alexander Birman are so sexy.  Perfect for a night about town.
I love these two from the Marni collection. So cute, quirky and fun!
So love these heels too! Grey for the sophisticated, Bronze for the sultry and seductive, and the Light Pink for the flirty. I prefer the flirty...
I'll be posting more of my dream shoes soon!

Once a kitten....

Last year,  when I visited my dear sister at her house, I saw a kitten that's in badly need of a home at a vacant lot beside their house.  I don't usually pick up stray or orphaned kittens but something about this little thing tugged at my heart, and the hard shell that I had broke.  Luckily it's a male so I was relieved... no more additional kittens to take care of when it gets older and is capable of multiplying. After cleaning and feeding it, this is what he looks like....




Aww.... he looks like Puss in Boots of Shrek!

These pictures were taken July 2010.

And here he is now....

My First Post Along with My First Tory Burch

Just last week, I went shopping with my good friend Jenny when we chanced upon Tory Burch's store front at Greenbelt 5.  We always wanted to have a look around the store but never had a chance to, so when we did, we really looked around...  And then there it was! That fabulous bag with the paint splattered pattern of blue, ochre, white, black, red, with a hint of moss green!  Both of us liked it... but I guess one of us liked it more.  I confirmed with the salesperson that I can get a 10% discount on cash purchase with my Rustan's discount card and thought of sleeping on it first before "splurging" on an impulse.  So I haven't bought it that day.  That night, I told my mom about the bag and she told me she will accompany me the next morning to check it out... Usually, when my mom offers to accompany me to see something, it most certainly has her approval of me buying it. Around 80% approved!  Not that I need my mom's approval when I buy things but it gives me validity or lesser guilt to buy it.  My mom and I are close, we almost always share the same views so that explains why I feel that way. 
Love the logo. This is the bag sack.

The Tory Burch Wally-Print Olympia Tote Bag.
I just love this bag, with all the chaos, there's order.  Edgy yet chic.  My kinda style.
