Dp said that my blog has now turned into Amanda’s…
This blog is still about me and my shopping, sometimes.
I too have not changed since motherhood
I still love shopping…and spent the whole of yesterday watching Gossip Girl and Desperate Housewives in bed.
Perhaps the only the thing that change since motherhood is the size of my jeans!

Though I wonder if anyone would stop reading now if I said there won’t be any photo of Amanda in this post!
But just my shopping!
My favorite category in this blog, right after Motherhood. :-p

Anyway, I had my nails done the day before my birthday.
Sparkling dark french tips and animal prints nail art on one of my fingers.
Dp’s friend, a guy said it looks as though I have dirt trapped in my nails. :-p

Gel nail this year, different from last year’s bubblegum acrylic tip.

In the background, my birthday present. LV bleu nuit Sprouse scarf.
I don’t usually do but I did ask Dp fo permission to buy. He was happy to know that opinion counts though he didn’t agree immediately.
I had to keep bugging him to consent.
And when he finally did, it gave an extra meaning to the scarf. hurhur!
I still love the one I got last year!

Also in the picture, my ’08 Birthday present…

The little blue box.
The Tiffany 6 prong platinum setting.

I love the Tiffany’s setting, the platinum and the thick band.
I used to not like solitaire but now I know why, its because most of the jewellers in Singapore have the diamond set on thin bands.
I got the Tiffany in Singapore during my Sept / Oct 08 trip home…

I still have my original e-ring, if you remember, The Rock, but I wasn’t quite satisfied about it…
Some would say that Tiffany are so not worth it, but well One can never go wrong with A TIFFANY!!!

Reflecting too much light? Hard to capture! :-p

I still love the setting of my original e-ring!!!
The white gold from my original e-ring tarnished very badly and the ring size is too big.
It once slipped off my finger almost rolled into the drain.
Will be re-setting it!!!

Months after buying the ring from Tiffany, I got one of their celebration ring too.
Its was to celebrate my first pregnancy. Perfect! Excuse. Right?
Another to celebrate Amanda’s arrival?
Nah! I have my eyes set on something else!

Like I sworn off brightly, printed or colored clothes, … stick to dark colors, I have also sworn off monogram-ed bags.

Today I have rekindled my love for monograms.
And the sunny weather (like its spring!) helped too!

    LV Stephen Sprouse Leopard Scarf : The perfect leopard print scarf for me. Cashmere. Pink Graffiti. Some said its overpriced. Goes well with almost everything. And it cheers me up whenever I have it around my neck. Priceless.
    I have matching leopard price heels too!

    LV Manhattan PM : Have this bag for about 18 months. Used it for less than 10 times. Not that because I do not like the bag. I love it. But its somehow too precious to use and hold. Dirty and brown handles??? Not on my LV.

    Juicy Couture Jacket
    : Bought it in San Francisco. Love the cut. I have always love white winter jackets. Clean. Love it more when I saw the price tag in the Beijing Malls.
    Mine cost lesser.

1 day more. I can smell weekend.

He sure knows me well…

in Her Life

So Dp leaving me alone in this boring place to go on a business trip.
Which he could have brought me along and leave me alone shopping but he refused.

I could have insisted on going or driving myself there but I couldn’t stand the thought of staying in that dirty (to me) hotel!
So I rather be alone in Yuncheng and in the small room -I am too chicken to be alone in the big new home and empty new neighborhood.

Before parting this afternoon, I lamented how he’s leaving me alone in Yuncheng again when he could have brought me along!
Trying to make him feel guilty when I was secretly pleased that he didn’t feel guilty enough to insist in bringing me along!

He then gave a list of things I can do while he is away for the next 24 hours.

- Clean the room.
- Re-arrange the mess in the room.
- Clean my closet.
- Watch TV and DVDs.
- Curl or Straighten my hair. Big, medium or small curls? Wavy or slick straight?
- Apply and Re-apply makeup…
- Take all my bags out of their dust bags and carry them around.
- Mix and match. Try out (more) new winter outfits.
- Wear and walk around in shoes I have not worn for a long time.
- Take self-portraits in front of the dirty mirror once I am pleased with my hair, makeup, outfits, bags and shoes.

I Must find time among all the silly things I do to clean the mirror!

Here’s another… with a clean mirror!

L1020205

These pictures infront of the mirror are good reference especially when I have no idea what to wear!

Do you think that he really knows me well or do you think he read this entry?
