Starbucks III



I've got my tumbler!

Never in a million years would I reckon I would buy such a huge water bottle someday.

Karma's a bitch.

Starbucks II

I managed to found some clearer pictures of the Starbucks sakura series.





Aww. So cute!!!

Starbucks



I love the Sakura series tumblers and water bottles. Went down to Compass Point just now to have a look at it. I would have gotten the pink water bottle on the spot but it was dirty and the only one on display. Will be hunting for it at other outlets on Friday!

And the sakura bear is sooo cute! Will make a good pair with my Starbucks halloween fatty bear.

Lóccitane



I'm a great fan of L'occitane Cherry Blossom series. Got this at 50% off. Definitely a good buy.

2010 Cosmetics & Fragrances Wishlist

I'm proud to say I survived Chinese New Year!!! Good lord, I managed to escape unscathed this year without being annoyed which doesn't happen very often. Since it's the start of a new year, I shall make a wishlist.

1. Bobbi Brown Corrector

I've been putting off buying concealer for the longest time. I probably should. But then again, concealer aren't that exciting as blushers.


2. Benefit Sugarbomb

I love collecting blushers, though I always ended up buying the same colour tones. Trying not to do that nowadays. Benefit latest blusher. Love the colour combination.


3. Benefit Posietint

This is probably the lazy person answer to long-lasting lipstick. Heh. Which is great for me.


4. Mac Blusher in Well-Dressed & Breath of Plum


5. Bobbi Brown Blusher in Pale Pink


6. Lóccitane Wild Cherry Eau de Toilette


The evil marketing people from Lóccitane downsized the perfume from 100 to 50ml, obviously the price did not go down proportionately. It now costs 69 instead of 89.


7. Lavshuca Lipgloss in every colour


This is the holy grail drugstore lipgloss, at least in my opinion. Fabulous colour selections, non-sticky and make your lips look luscious. But as with all lip-glosses, it's not long-lasting.


8. Jill Stuart Jelly Lipgloss




9. Jill Stuart Mix Blush Compact in every colour

I can't possibly get every colour in reality. It retails for SGD70 for 1 and there are 11 variations. I can't foreseen myself spending 700 dollars to buy blushers. I just can't. So far, I only got 1 teeny weeny compact. Oh well. Think will select a few colours to my liking.


10. Jill Stuart Cleansing Oil

$42 bucks. Crazy price but such a gorgeous dreamy bottle. I probably can refill with my own cleansing oil, if I finished the bottle that is. I don't even use cleansing oil that much! Maybe refill with my cleansing foam???

Chinese New Year & Valentine Day

I just went to the doctor this morning. He says my condition have improved. But to me, it's still stagnant. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it gets bad. I really don't know anymore. Sigh.

I'm not looking forward to Chinese New Year. But I'm am looking forward going out later in the evening to enjoy an early valentine day dinner with Mr Bear.

Signing off with the yummi-licious egg tarts I bought from Takashimaya that day.

XOXO

Pretty lace top



Regretted not getting the top. It's so Blair Waldorf. I thought it was expensive but I forgot I have Citibank credit card which gives 10% off. Arrgh! I swear saving money gives me bad luck.

*hint...valentine day coming though...

I love dresses. AE Outfitters came out with gorgeous spring dresses in its latest colllection. I can foreseen where my red packet money is going into when the sale begins.

Shopping Buys

Isn't this cute...


Mickey Mouse Ink Pen



I went over to Liang Court Kinokuniya just now to pick up my copy.



This issue comes with a creamy-white canvas lunch tote from Agnes Br. They even add on a coin pouch. Cute.



Picked up some travel brochures at Liang Court.



Couldn't resist getting some snacks from the basement supermarket over there. The one on the left is my childhood snack. It used to be my favourite, my first entry to japan kawaii snack heaven. I still remember I loved the seaweed version in green packaging. I think they no longer sells that :(



I have a weakness for ribbons, laces and everything girlie fancy. Yet another pouch. No more pouches!

Lóccitane

Lóccitane is coming out with yet another perfume under the Cherry Blossom series.



Should I use the vouchers for this or keep it for my Paul & Joe Alice in Wonderland palette??? I'm having such a headache.

Kawaii stuffs & weekend dinner


Collected my Disney on Ice tickets. We got great seats for the show!



Got these from the capsule machine.



This is good at lengthening the lashes and giving it some volume. I like the natural look it gives.



Yummy crab!

Wedding Reception Venue

Just for my own reference: (Tea reception prices as of 2010)

Four Seasons: S$81.9 per person

Pros: Wide varieties of food. (20+ items), served with coffee, tea, herbal infusions, free flow of soft drinks, fabulous poolside venue with indoor function room, minimum 30 guests,complimentary wedding guestbook, flowers and theme decoration.
Cons: Expensive, no complimentary wedding favours & invitations, no hotel stay

Ritz Carlton: Let just say the prices are astronomical. And they don't serve hi-tea buffet packages anymore.

How is it my fault when I did not ask to be sick? Implying I have asked for it myself is such a tactless remark. Being sick with a chronic illness is not the same as just falling sick. Is having some empathy that hard?
