My Victoria Secret


Anyone a big fan of Victoria Secret? Well I am. Especially their swimwear.

From the moment I got my own Victoria Secret bikini, I have never thought of buying any other brand. Simply because of how comfortable it is. 

I have tried buying some really cheap bikinis online but the quality is disastrous. The padding is lousy. After a few wash/swim, the padding makes your boobs look weird. The strings to the bikini top is not strong enough. You tie it then after a few moments, you can feel air coming into your boobs. Not protected and safe at all!

So after a lot of lousy online bikinis, I decided to invest in one which is good. This is mainly because I love swimming so I would need one that is good to last for long term. My first buy was a year back and I LOVE IT!!!! I told myself to buy more when they are having sales! Cause to be honest, it is very pricey for a Victoria Secret bikini if it is not on sale because the shipping charges is quite expensive.




I found out that Victoria Secret is having their swimwear sale right now and I quickly grab the opportunity to get some good deals. I went online and browse through a few designs! I quickly added the items into the shopping bag and proceeded to checkout. Delivery normally takes 2-3 weeks. They will send you an email upon confirmation of your order and shipment as well so no worries *winks*


I manage to find something I like and the prices are reasonable. Victoria Secret sells their bikini separately. The top and the bottom. The price for the top is usually USD35-25 depending on the design while the bottom is usually from USD19-12.


I manage to get a USD9.99 for the top and bottom! USD19.98 for one set! CHEAP OR NOT? That is less than RM60.00 for a bikini! Even Roxy's bikini is RM100++.

Then another set with stripes print is a little bit more expensive but WHAT THE HELL. They charge your shipping according to your total purchase amount so no harm adding another set la. HAHAHAHA

See the shipping charges below. You can get this information from their website.


After all the online clicking (and paying), I was really happy to receive my parcel last weekend! Here are they~~~


I feel in love the moment I saw this design on Victoria Secret website. Simply because I was attracted to the colours and the design of the bottom as well. 


And you can be assured of its hygiene as there is a sticker protecting any crazy bacterias from a person's touch. Though I would still recommend you all to wash it before you wear la. No harm to stay on the safe side right?



This is the USD 9.99 for the top and bottom bikini! NICE RIGHT!
Victoria Secret is damn nice. They give you a USD3 catalogue for free! It comes together in the parcel. Either that is their ultimate trick to make you buy more or they have loads of it to give it away free. I enjoyed flipping through the catalogue and well, also because you can't get a copy of this catalogue anywhere! Heheheehe.



I'm so so happy with my new bikinis collection that I can't wait to go for a beach holiday or just to go for a swim! HAHAHAHA. 

Trying them out! Sorry for the low quality of the pictures and my not so Victoria Secret angelic body >"<


Go get your Victoria Secret bikini now especially when the swimwear sale is still on! Never too expensive to invest in a good bikini! They have sizes and designs for every type of body! Push up no push up, sexy, sporty, girly, colourful, prints, solid colours and the list goes on!

Lavender Bridesmaid Dresses

This might be slightly out of topic but I am desperate.


My best friend is getting married end of this year and I am looking for bridesmaid dresses. It has to be light purple or lavender-ish colour.


It is so damn difficult to find a nice one. I am looking for 3 bridesmaids dresses, all in the same colour and same design (well, the BRIDE is the spotlight of the day!). It is better if it is a maxi dress because everyone looks the same. Shorter dress might look different on different people due to individual height.


I am looking for something that is similar to this :







So please, anyone out there who come across any good website selling bridesmaid dresses or maxi dresses in light purple, please please please drop me an email! I need 3!!!


Blogshop owners are welcome to email me. 


The wedding is a beautiful beach wedding and my friend and her fiance is flying all the way from Australia back to Malaysia for the wedding! 


EVERYTHING HAZ TO BE PURRFECTOOOO!

Body Shop Cranberry Body Butter

Friends who know me well know that I am a big fan of lotion. Any lotion. I can't leave the house without applying lotion, its like a layer of protection I need before I can wear my clothes on. LOL

I think I have stressed enough on the importance of lotion in my previous post on Redwin Sorbolene lotion.

So among all the body butter that I have tried, I truly list The Body Shop Cranberry Body Butter to be the best of all.

I love the smell. The texture. The oiliness. The long lasting fragrance.

But I hate that you can only get it during limited periodIt is a special season body butter. You can only purchase it during Christmas time. So I can only anticipate for its arrival during year end. So cham.


RM69.90

But lucky me cause the Body Shop sales this year is like an answer to my dreams. They have my favourite body butter on sale for 50%. FIFTY PERCENT OFF! I went crazy seeing that. I grabbed a basket and instantly placed 6 tubes into it! HAHAHAAHAHAHA. 


My crazy shopping spree
6 tubes for the price of 3 tubes!
Muahahahaa. HAPPINESS MAX
My boyfriend thinks I am crazy and he said I am never having the right to complain about being broke in front of him. CISSSS. But he is so lovely cause when he went back to England last December, he bought me the shower gel and the body scrub *happy*


So the reason why I love this Cranberry body butter so much is because of its smell and texture. Very smooth to apply. It can be a bit too oily for some people but I like it. Because I am always in air conditioned room so the oiliness of the body butter helps to keep my skin moisturized throughout the day. 


A little bit of the body butter on my hand
Body Butter on my thigh
Applying it in a circular motion
  
TA DAAAAH! Oily and protected thigh LOL
Can see the oiliness of it on my skin. But once you are used to it, it won't be a problem. It actually makes you feel very moisturized and protected for the whole day! I applied it every morning and when I shower every night at about 10pm, you can still feel the body butter as the water runs through your body. POWDERFUL RIGHT?


Get your skin protected and smell great at the same time! Body Shop Cranberry Body Butter is the Answer to it! 

Who Am I?

Is there anyone out there that is curious of how I look like?

Ever wonder if I am some fugly ogre or gigantic slump of mess like Ugly Betty?

Hehe, I have actually received some mails asking how I look like. LOL. Well for starters, I am not a celebrity or camwhore pic type of person so there will not be a lot of pictures of me. 

But I guess I can understand where the question stems from, most bloggers now attract a lot of readers by posting camwhore pictures or outfit pictures or close up make up face. Which is totally fine because who doesn't like to see pretty girls, nice outfits and nice make up?


Well, some of my close friends obviously know who am I and how do I look like. I am not being secretive, it is just that I am not that type to share a lot about personal life. Think of me like some sort of secret agent that reports within.


And hey, to be fair, I might get different customer feedback if blogshops know who I am. They will be more attentive and provide extra good customer service so there won't be any bad reviews. And that is a tad unfair for the public, they will be misguided


I want to be treated equal as other consumers. Then again, I always use different identity for online shopping as well. HAHAHAHAAHHA. Thanks for those that allowed me to use your address *loves*


Having said that, I am sharing with you a picture of me so you all know I am real, I am a human and I am a female LOL. Not robot or alien okay *does a michael fassbender robot smile*




In time, I shall slowly reveal myself when I am more comfortable. But for now, hope this is sufficient to feed your curiosity (lucky you are not a cat eh). 


XOXO

Friendly Fashion - Your One Stop Solution

If you are a big time online shopper like me, you would love this!

You know how there is risk when you shop online? You never know the true quality of the fabric, the length, the size, the colour and all. When you receive your parcel and saw the real deal, you don't like it. There is pretty much nothing you can do about it. So you just hide it in your closet in some godforsaken small area and never see it again.

Well why waste the space? If it doesn't suits you, it doesn't mean it is useless right?

Here is your ultimate solution to this problem --> Friendly Fashion.

Friendly Fashion is a one stop platform for people to sell, swap or giveaway what they don't use or not suitable anymore. I call it the SSG solution! Why waste space and have it in your closet to collect dust when you can earn some extra cash or be an angel and give it for free or better still, swap for something that you like! 

Besides the SSG solution, you get to meet people who are crazy online shoppers like you, share your experience about online shopping, fashion tips etc. Friendly Fashion also has a blog where they mix and match cool styles for your reference, introduce cool fashion stylista local bloggers. Isnt that everything under the sun?

Friendly Fashion runs via their website. You need to register and be a member to start the SSG. You can also like them on facebook for fashion style updates.

Friendly Fashion Facebook Page
Friendly Fashion is not only for girls! They have Male section as well. Fair to everybody right? No sexist or discrimation talk yoz~~

Friendly Fashion is also recently been awarded to be the online shop of the year by Digi WOWWOW Awards. You can tell how WOWsome it is! =D

Their website is also very user friendly. You post the picture of the garment you are selling or swapping or giving away on the website. Anyone who is interested in it will click on the I WANT button. From thereon, you just communicate with the interested parties on the T&C, mailing and postage charges. 

You can see from the screen capture below that the right side of the site shows you the information about the owner.


So you might ask, what if there are dishonest people? Well, for the crooks out there, Y U SO JAHAT? We can't avoid people from doing bad things, but we can always hope that we meet good people. Before you enter into any SSG with a person, you can always check on the member profile. There are like fb likes for feedback. So the more thumbs up you see, the more trustworthy the member is and you will feel safe to deal with the person.


Alternatively, you can browse through the member list and see who has a lot of LIKES. You can then click into their profile and check out what they have for SSG.




In case you get lost, don't fret. There is a FAQ tab on Friendly Fashion website. If you are a bit skeptical with the idea of SSG, take your time and read through the FAQ. It is very comprehensive and covers almost all the doubts you have! 




You can really get cheap deals there and it does not only have dresses but shoes as well! OMG! I promise you that the moment you see the price, your heart will skip a beat! Cheap deals and who doesn't like cheap deals? HAHAHAHA




See the picture above? The dress at the bottom left priced at RM50.00? That dress is a sold out piece on Doublewoot and Attire Attic with a selling price of RM69.00. For those who missed out on that dress, you can get it now at only RM50.00! Cool or not?


And this La Senza lingerie. OMG SO CHEAP! RM55.00 SAHAJA?




The best thing about Friendly Fashion is that you don't have to be dealing with SSG to visit the website. You can go to their blog and browse their fashion tips. I am personally really loving that section. Even match up with nail polish as well. So attentive *loves*

Have to thank the 2 sisters Nadzirah and Diyana that started the website to clear off their closet and end up turning the website into a cool community for girls to share and SSG!

Bourjois Magic Nail Polish Remover

I am so so sorry for MIA-ing the last few days. Things have been crazy and there are a lot of stuffs going on.


Anyway, I wanted to share this MAGICAL product to all of you. I read about this from a fashion beauty lifestyle blogger called Suzi. You can like her facebook page at StyleSuzi.


She shared this video about a nail polish remover from Bourjois. For those who are not familiar with the brand, it is a UK brand. I love their nail polish especially the french manicure. They have a special brush for you to create perfect french manicure without any fuss (maybe I will blog about it in future).


Well, being a nail polish addict myself, I always find removing them to be the shittiest part. Especially when some of them are peeling off or fading, gosh aklhfebjblfsLBLFSD LOOK SO UGLY. From beautiful fingers, you will have old, dull and fugly fingers.


And the removing part is always the most troublesome because you need to spend time on it. Dabbing the cotton, rubbing it on your nail ONE BY ONE and after that, you can feel the skin of your fingertips being very dry. Annoying right?


Well, don't be because I may have just found the best solution for everyone!


Introducing BOURJOIS MAGIC NAIL POLISH REMOVER


Photo taken from StyleSuzi.com
Dont underestimate this small little bottle. It does miracle. Suzi made a video on how to use it and you can see how effective it is. 


For those who are lazy to load the video, let me explain to you how it works.


Open the lid, dip your finger into the bottle, move the bottle in circular motion for about 2-3 seconds, pull your finger out and TADAAAAAH, your nail is clean! No more nail polish!


Abit hard to believe right? WATCH THE VIDEO AND YOU WILL KNOW!





Even more amazing is that this magic bottle only costs GBP4.99! That is like RM25.00 only! So convenient and fuss free. Save cotton as well. Your fingers wont be destroyed by the chemical from nail polish remover.





I am getting this next month no matter what! For anyone who is interested, please email me! Magical nail polish remover, can probably cheat kids with it. MAGIC AHHHHH! hahahaahahahahaa.

Fashion Feed - Denim is Back!

Still remember somewhere between year 2004 and 2006 where denim style was the IT style? Everyone has a denim jacket, wearing jeans is the coolest thing, Louis Vuitton having denim series, manicure styled with denim pieces etc.

Then colour block came followed by polka dots and stripes.

Well I think denim is gonna be back in fashion. Why? Celebrities have been spotted in denim styles lately! And its not just denim like jeans cause come on, everyone has a pair of jeans and jeans is always in style LOL

Denim style with full dress of denim! Check them out!
Diane Kruger looking elegant in a light wash denim dress


Katie Holmes spotted in a denim shift dress paired with a slim brown belt and bright green pumps.


Katie Holmes and her daughter Suri Cruise.
 What do you think? Do you like denim? Can't wait for it to be back in fashion?

Denim always have a way of making people look young and chic. It just never really goes out of style. For eg polka dots is more retro. Stripes is more like an illusion style but denim, denim is YOUNG!

If you still have denim clothes in your closet, maybe its time to dig them out and get them ready *winks*
