Shoppings and Eating

The weekend comes and goes...seems like this weekend is ending soon and a new work week is beginning soon. Well we are about to enter June 2009 and oh la la....we have walked 5 months into 2009. Well the In-thing now is the Great Singapore Sales (GSS) is here. Last Friday was the first day of GSS. Orchard Road was so jam packed with humans and vehicles last Friday. Everyone is rushing in for a good deals and bargains. Hope you had some good deals bought during the GSS.

Last Monday Books Kinokuniya has this 20% discount storewide, so dropped by to buy Her World magazine. A good buy because it has the Laneige skin care set free.

Her World Magazine - June 2009 issue

Laneige Skin Care set FREE

Fashionably yours had a lovely weekend. In fact, my weekend began last Thursday. Last Thursday bestie and I took leave. We went to Color Wash at China Square Central. I sent my Chanel bag for cleaning and bestie sent her shoe for cleaning. It was recommended to me by Chanel boutique Sales staff that I send my Chanel bag there for cleaning. Bestie also recommended me this place as she also has sent her bags there for cleaning before and is satisfied with their services. After we were done at color wash, we proceed for lunch at Hong Lim Complex food centre.

Wanton Noodle stall which we bought our noodle

There were long quenes at this stall.

Luckily when we bought our noodles, it was short quene My wanton noodle

very yummy

Cost SGD2.00

Cheap and good

Afer our stomach are filled with food. We went to the Club 21 bazaar at F1 pit building. We shopped happily there. It was very crowded. We shopped till closing at 2000 hour. We are very happy with our purchases. Fashionably yours bought a DKNY LBD and a Diesel cap while bestie bought an Emporio Armani Jacket and a pair of Armani Exchange pants. It was worth going and good steals. Will go to the next Club 21 bazaar again.

Our dinner on Thursday night was pasta at pasta mania, before we headed home sweet home.

Last Friday evening, bestie and I met up again for more shoppings. It was the first day of GSS. We bought some toiletries & biscuits & tea from Crabtree & Evelyn. Prior to meeting bestie, fashionably yours had done some shoppings at Takashimaya shopping centre to enjoy the additional 10% discount for cardmembers. Fashionably yours bought a pair of Brenda Inc earrings and my favourite Chanel nail polish. We also shopped at Bvlgari boutique as bestie wants to buy the keyring.

We went for our dinner at our favourite restaurant which is Royal Copenhagen. Fashionably yours knew it will be full house, so dropped by to make reservations before we shopped at Bvlgari boutique. As expected, when we returned to have our dinner, the restaurant was full house. Luckily we have reservations and were shown to our table at once. We were so hungry that we forgot to take pictures of our food. It was delicious, as usual and ate till very full.

The weather is so hot these two days that fashionably yours just want to stay indoors and sit near the fan. Seems like everywhere is under constructions now and jam packed with both human and vehicles over the weekends. It is a wise choice to stay in to avoid the crowds and the hot weather. It is such a breeze to shop during the off peak hour when other people are working during the office hours.

Eating my piece of rich fruit cake

which I bought from Royal Copenhagen

very yummy except a tad too sweet

I know the GSS is here now and most of you would shop to enjoy the discounts. However please shop smart and wise, only buy the things you need. Don't just buy because it is cheap. Also always check the expiry dates of products you are going to buy.

Enough said for now, Happy Shopping everyone and have a great week ahead.

P.S. Please share with me your good steals and/or bargains you had from the GSS. Thanks.

It is the weekend....Hurray....well well well, fashionably yours have been so busy during the weekdays and cannot find the time to blog. Just realized I can only update my blog during the weekend. Am I becoming the weekend blogger ? I hope not. I want to constantly update my blog for my dear weblogders.

The week is kind of happening. Took afternoon leave last Thursday to visit my hairstylist for a new look, together with bestie. I had a hair cut, colour, highlight and treatment. It was very relaxing with the hair massage. Spent about 3 hours at the salon together with bestie, but kind of fun because we chat and laughed alot, though we felt kind of sleepy in between. Luckily we have each other to laugh and talk to, otherwise really can fall asleep during the hair session. I like my new hair style. After we were done with our hair session, we proceed to redeem some vouchers at the customer service counter since we spent a certain amount and entitled us to play spin the wheel game.

We had lots of fun spinning the wheels....spin and spin and spin....Then in total we have 28 tokens. I exchanged 13 tokens for a cute little yellow bear. While bestie exchanged the balance of the tokens for a rubic cube and a note pad.

My cutie little yellow bear which I

exchanged for 13 tokens

to bring him home

What shall I name him ?

Little cutie bear saying Hi to everyone

Please suggests some name for me. Thanks.

We were so hungry after spinning the wheel, so we went to Ichiban Boshi at Suntec for Japanese dinner. Yes we love Japanese food. It was not crowded and no quene, so we were showed to our table once we reached the restaurant.

Some beef skewers

My dinner bento set

Healthy bento set

I love the fresh salmon sashimi and chawan mushi

Both of us ate till very full. We asked the waitress will the fruits be watermelon as shown on the menu. She told us only oranges will be served instead of watermelon. I told bestie that they served us oranges instead of watermelons the last time when we dined there. I think they are cutting cost on the fruits because oranges are cheaper compared to watermelons. We would prefer to eat watermelons.

Two of us really enjoying life on a Thursday afternoon while our colleagues were working hard in the office. Our weekend starts on Thursday, to the salon to do our hair, then to our yummy Japanese dinner. It is good to go to the mall during weekdays because less crowded and get better service as compared to the weekends. We don't like the weekend crowds at the malls.

Fashionably yours have a very bad case of throat infections and sore throat. Seen the company doctor and was prescribed anti-biotics on Friday. However still not fully recovered yet. Think I talked to much in the office and worsen my throat conditions. My voice changed too. I want my original voice to be back and the pain pain go away asap. Have been drinking lots of h20.

My anti-biotics

Actually Fashionably yours is supposed to be at the hottest party in town dancing now and not blogging here. I have complimentary VIP tickets to the hottest party in town. However due to my sore throat, I decided to stay home to rest and here I am updating my blog. I miss the party this time but never mind, I must recover asap so that I can go to the next party and dancing the night away.

Have a good mid-week.....the weekend is approaching soon and I can hear the footsteps.

Rainy Monday

Hope your weekend was good. It is a nice and cooling Monday. It rained cats and dogs in the late morning. Fashionably yours love rain. In fact, miss the rainy weather because the last few days the weather was so extremely hot. Hope it will be this nice and cooling weather tonight too for a good night sleep. OMG ! it is only late afternoon and fashionably yours is already thinking of my bed. Well, must be the nice and cooling weather that makes me thinking of my bed.

Munching cashew nuts, honey macademia nuts and abalone macademia nuts in the office, which my colleague bought back from Sydney. Nutty nutty days.....yummy.....Just finished my fruits and now making earl grey tea to drink.

Life is good though busy at work. Lots of projects in the pipeline. Guess is good to be busy in these times. Nevertheless take a short break to blog here and now back to my work and drink my hot tea.

Have a nice week ahead everyone :)


P.S. Can smell my lavender aromatherapy which fashionably yours is burning now. Love it : )

Tiring week and so many happenings

Feeling so so so tiring after a hectic week at work. Besides the heat is on. The hot weather can really affect one's mood. Making me feeling so tired and don't feel like moving because when I move I will sweat. Normally either hide inside the aircon area or sit in front of the blowing fan. Hoping it will rain this weekend so that the weather will be nice and cooling.

So many things happen recently, from the H1N1 flu to the arrest of Mas Salamat. First is H1N1 flu spreading to so many countries and affecting people's lifestyle. People are skipping eating pork. Thermometers and N95 masks are sold out. Many places are having temperature screening of visitors as a precaution measure. I have been measuring my temperature three times a day - Morning, midday and evening as per my company's policy now in view of the H1N1 flu. We have to record our temperature online via our company's portal everyday. Need to continue to do so even when the alert level is to change to yellow next Monday, until further notice. Have been washing my hands regularly and thoroughly too.

Last night about 2am my friend who works at the press informed me that Mas Salamat has been arrested in Malaysia after so long. It has been so long since he escaped and finally the authority nailed him down. The news is everywhere in the papers now and most of the people are talking about it.

Yesterday morning, the bus which I was travelling to work broke down half way so need to change bus. All passengers get a free ride though most of us were delayed on our journey to work.

Thank God the weekend is here, so that fashionably yours can rest.....feeling so sleepy now....need to zzzzzzzzzz.............alot.

Have a nice weekend everyone and wishing all my buddhists' weblodgers a Happy Vesak Day.

Freebies and good deals

Oh la la.....time flies and today is the 1st day of May which is also a Public Holiday. Yes it is May Day. Yeah.....no work today, rest day for fashionably yours and also a long weekend. Very happy and love the month of May because there are two Public Holidays - 1st May is May Day and 9 May is Vesak Day. Another reason is because fashionaby yours birthday also fall in May and in two weeks time. Yesterday was doing some planning at work and put the date on a document which the date looks so familiar and rings a bell to me. Oh then realize it was fashionably yours birthday so change the document's date :)

The global economy is already so bad and now the swine flu disease seems spreading fast from Mexico to Asia and Europe. Pray that this swine flu disease will be kept under controlled and stop spreading. My company is taking pre-caution measures. Business trips to Mexio, USA, Canada and affected countries are currently suspended. Staff who are not feeling well should seek medical consultation and stay at home to rest. We must take good care of our health by having sufficient rest, exercise, don't be so stress, eat fruits and drink lots of water to build up our immunity system.

Well fashionably yours have been extremely super busy at work in April. So many things to handle and finally got most of it done. Phew ! what a relief, feel happy and have a sense of satisfaction. Actually have been very busy both at the work front and the social front. So busy that really have no time to update blog and too tired to update my blog. At least now fashionably yours can sit down to update my blog.

Now times are bad, so freebies and good deals are most welcome. You have come to the right blog. Yes must bookmark my blog and come here everyday, every hour, every minute and every seconds constantly to check it out for my blog updates. Fashionably yours always have good things to share with my dear weblogders every now and then, so must check it out diligently :)
