First visit to Dressabelle store

I have been working at Tanjong Pagar for almost three months but always too lazy to walk over to 100AM to Dressabelle store.  So today I make an exception.

It is located at level two. Store is pretty big and easily located. Especially if you compare to Love and Bravery store at Tampines 1.

There are many designs but I think they are from older range. Not much from recent serials. And the sizes are limited.

I was a bit disappointed with the visit as most of the clothes are in bigger size.  Only managed to try some but not really to my liking.

There is a lunch time discount. 15% off during 11.30am to 2.00pm from Monday to Friday.  So if nearby can always drop by to take a look.

Cheers.

Products testing

I am back to my sampling days. To sample and review products. However this time run the duration is quite long, 28 days of testing two products.  A serum and a night cream.

Went to cllect during lunch hour. Now they don't even provide bags for the products. Should have notified in advance. Was so rush, I don't even have time to buy lunch back.  Felt that not really worth the whole trouble for just $20 Takashimaya vouchers.

Maybe last time the travelling time is lesser. Now i must change train and with all the waiting time really very rush.

Anyway will complete this test and see whether next time still want to continue or not.

Cheers.

PS. yesterday my husband helped me went to love and bravery to buy the dress I have been eyeing on it.  But it was sold out.  Sad but grateful that can save money.

Saw the #Anello backpack. It costs $149 so expensive.  Not sure what they, stuff in the bag, seem heavy and super bulky.

Still looking for alternatives, hope can find something good and affordable.

Beige is the new black

I used to match most of my outfits with black shoes as black is a colour that will not go wrong. However, recently I realised wearing beige is as good as black and it will make your legs look longer even when I am wearing flats.

However, I always have difficulties in finding shoes that are suitable for me.  Currently I have been wearing Rubi's shoes. Some of its models are quite soft but the sizes are a bit out.  Size 36 is too short and size 37 will eventually expand and too loose. So anyone knows shoes that are soft and affordable to recommend me?

Meanwhile I have a spare shoes that is brownish.  Not so sure will it be as easyas beige to match outfit.  Will update soon.  

As for bag, I still prefer black bag as it does not worn out or gets dirty that easily.  I love nylon bag even though they look less formal but they are so light which are prefect for me.  Still looking for my next bag...

Cheers.  

Thing that I enjoy doing

Window shopping is something that I really love to do. However, it can be too time consuming.  So sometimes I will either bring my kids with me or while waiting for my eldest to finish his classes.

Recently I went #loveandbravery to try out its clothes but didn't find much that suits me.

Here are some shots that I have tried.

So which 1 do you think is nice?

Cheers.

Converse shoes

During this GSS, I bought my new walking shoes.  I went for a basis plain white Converse shoes. There was a 10% discount so paid $60 only.

Hoping that it will be easier to match with my outfit. Even with some of my working dress.

It does match with some of my working dress but I feel that after wearing #Bzees for a year, Converse shoes does not feel that comfortable. Sad. Furthermore #Bzees shoes are quite difficult to get in Singapore.  So now I am thinking whether to buy back my current #Bzees or not.  Also not sure whether it has my size or not.

Cheers.

Withings Activite

After reading my blog, my husband feels bad about buying the DFIt D1 for me.  Actually I feel that there is no need to feel bad about.  Even thought it is not really a good watch, it does have its pros.  And I will still use it, as I am not really a very high tech girl.  Just need to take a while to get use to it and learn how to use it.  And during this process, I may nag and nag about what I discover of the watch. Usually I will comment more on its cons than its pros.  Haha. 

Then out of the blue, he gave me another watch, Withings Activite.  

It also tracks your steps.  It is also waterproof.  Nicer design.  Does not need to charge every fortnight. However, it is much more expensive.  Costs around S$200 and cannot tell the time in the dark.  The step tracker is much stricter than my DFit D1 and HPB Actxa. 

I feel a bit wasteful when I stop using my DFIt D1.  It is still useable.  But I guess it is not so practical for my kids.  Maybe I shall donate to YMCA. 

Now I am into Minimalist lifestyle. So really don’t want too much things.  Trying to cut back on my purchase and whenever I have spare time, will pack my stuff.  Hope I can achieve it.  Pray for me.

Cheers.  

DFit D1

My husband recently bought me a smart watch called DFit D1 from Tao Bao.  It has good review and costed around S$30 plus with shipping. 

Pros about the watch.  Cheap, nicely made and waterproofed. 

Cons:  Need to synchronize with you mobile phone or else the timing will be out and being reset.  

I have been using for five days. The watch needs to be charged almost every two days.   Its Bluetooth connection is pretty weak, out of the blue, the watch will reset as it loses the connection with my mobile phone.

Personally I find it quite useless as a watch that does not provide correct time.  Even the HPB Actxa is a more reliable watch.

Cheers. 

Outfit for the day

It is always super rush in the morning so I don't have time to take my daily outfit picture.  And i don't have other place to take.  By the time I reach home in the evening, I will be so worn out.

So sometimes when I am on leave or weekends, if I dress up better. I will take my outfit picture.  

So here is one of my outfit.  

I seldom wear 2 pieces as I need to plan what to match.  

For this, I matched my #loveandbravery black #culottes with a reversible faux silk top.  I find it quite alright and not so hot.
What do you think?

Cheers.

Biore UV Kids

New product that I found in Ntuc. Biore UV has came out a new sunblock for kids.  I forgotten to try, next time will try.  I love its Prefect and Face Milk.  Will do a review shortly.  Not sure how this will fare. I also did not see it's retail price.

Will find out more.

Cheers.

Korres

Last Monday I happened to pass by Korres at Raffles City and saw it is having 40% sales for some of its makeup and promotions. I went in to take a look and I come out poorer.

Its makeup range other than lip balm are all having 40% discount.  Some of the make removers are selling at $19. I think memeber got 40% discount for some other products.

I have bought its Multivitamin compact powder (usual price is $61) and Pomegrante concealer (usual price is $39).  Total I spent $60 for these two products.

Really worth it to buy.  Will try and review on it soon.

Cheers.
