April favourites 2021

Hey everyone! Its been ages since I last blogged as I'm busy with work and heavily pregnant. I'm due in 5 weeks time!! How time flies and we can all see baby J! 

Today, I'm going to share with you guys my April favourites. Recently, my husband and I bought a MacBook Pro to co-share. We are loving it so much despite both of us are clueless at using it initially. I love how sleek and lightweight the lappy is! Goodbye to my old Fujitsu laptop that had been through thick and thin with me since poly to uni period. 

First of all, the bag of the month that I would like to share with you guys is the Supreme logo zip tote bag in leopard design. I was browsing through Farfetch and I instantly fell in love with it. However, the leopard design was not available online. I managed to cop it at a really good deal on carousell. Whats more, the seller only used the bag once. So it looks pretty much brand new. I've watched online reviews on Youtube on how to authenticate the bag before purchasing it.

Dimension of the bag:

L: 50cm 

H: 32cm 

W: 20cm

The bag is very spacious and lightweight. It comes with one inner and one outer pocket. It's available in 4 colours: Black, Red, Green and Leopard. However, the leopard design is rare to cop. So I'm happy when I can get my hands on it! Not only this bag is used for work, but it looks rather hype for a diaper bag too right? 

Second item that I want to share is my new YSL cushion foundation. I've ran out of my Lancome marble cushion foundation and I can't get my hands on the refill pact only to realise that they stopped the production of it. So I decided to try out the YSL cushion foundation to check out what's the hype of it. I purchased it at BHG Bugis. It retails for $102 and the refill pact cost $62. Gotten a $10 discount as there was a minimum spending of $100. Not only that, you will become a YSL member instantly and I received 2 free gifts. One is a YSL mirror, another one is a small pouch to store my cushion foundation. I'm using shade 25. It smells good and my face does not feel oily after long hours of wearing it.

Last but not least, the last item I want to share its a pair of light pink Skechers shoes. I have very bad water retention. I'm swell up from my arms, hands, legs and feet. As a nurse, I stand up all day working so by the end of the day, my feet will be so swollen and its so uncomfortable to wear covered shoes. Jaryl suggested that I should check out Skechers shoes, but I always have this thinking that only aunties wear it.. The store was about to close as it was late but I guess the salesperson saw that I was heavily pregnant and I sincerely want to buy the shoes as I'm super desperate. We were also lucky as the store was having a last day promo of buy one, get one free so Jaryl and I gotten a pair of shoes each. I'm loving how comfortable and stretchy the shoes is. I've forgotten which series is this shoes, but this is how it looks like..

Alright, that's the end of my April favourites. It's time for me to do housework. Till then..

Whats in my Prada bag? (X'mas edition 2019)

Prada Nylon Bucket Bag 

Hello all, today I'm sharing with you what's in my Prada bag and how I turned this Prada cosmetic bag into a bucket bag. I was watching Youtube and chanced upon this korean video whereby a lady did a reform of this Prada cosmetic bag. I fell in love with it and I decided to make one on my own. So I purchased the cosmetic bag from one of the seller from Reebonz Closet. Jaryl found the round carabiner for me on Carousell. I bought the strap from Shopee. You can make do with or without a bag organizer. But I bought it as I want the bag to maintain it's shape. It's really difficult to find a bag organizer for this Prada bag model. But I managed to find one from a Korean Etsy seller. Viola ~ Now you can make your own Prada bucket bag! Links will be provided at the bottom.

August & September favourites

Vintage LV pochette accessoires - Bday gift to myself
Sovil Titus watch - Bday gift from Tina and Aisha 

Tatcha moisturizer - SGD 98
Olaplex no 6 bond smoother - SGD 44
Tangle teezer hello kitty - SGD 35
Tarte amazonian clay powder (light) - SGD 53 

H&M sling bag - SGD 19.95

August was my birthday month and I made so many purchases. I've been eyeing for the LV pochette for quite some time. I've went to the LV store at Takashimaya and Ion with Claire but the LV sales associates said that they have stop bringing in this model. I was so disappointed but I found it off carousell and I immediately copped it at a good deal. As this bag is a vintage piece, the bag strap is attached to the zipper instead of the D-ring at the side of the bag. But nevertheless, I still love this piece. I have gotten a simple black bag from H&M for everyday use.

Few weeks back, Sephora was having a 20% sales for black and gold card members. I was roaming around Ion at that point of time and decided to get a new face moisturizer for myself but ended up getting much more than I needed. I love the Tatcha face moisturizer. Its watery but not oily on my skin. For the price point, it's bloody expensive. The olaplex bond smoother coupled it up with the cutesy hello kitty tangle teezer makes my hair soft and tame. I gotten myself a new face powder from Tarte because the milani matte face powder makes my face oily. I'm not sure if its because of the base products I used on my face or the Milani face powder is not suitable for my skin?

Thats all of my fave products of August and September! Till then..

April favourites

Catrice - Base and Top coat
Wet&Wild - Velvet Matte Lipstick 03
Essence - I love extreme mascara
Essence - Clear brow gel
The body shop - seaweed toner
Paw patrol - Sanitizer
Essence - Concealer 

Tarte - moisturizer 

Today, I'm gonna blog about my April favourites ranging from my new Prada tote bag to beauty products that I'm in love with. First of all, I bought my Prada tote bag from Reebonz. Its a pre-loved bag but its in pristine condition. I had about 250 credits in my account and it would expire in July if I'm not gonna utilise it. Reebonz is having a mother's day sale thus the bag was reduced by 20%. So I gotten the bag at a reasonable price. The only flaw the bag have is that it has a pen mark on the inner compartment of the pocket. Otherwise, I cant tell that the previous owner really use the bag, considering its a 2015 model. Hyung also said that the bag reminds him of Christian Louboutin because the inner compartment of the bag is red while the outer layer is black. Onto my beauty products, I've tried out the body shop seaweed toner. The scent of it smells like fresh water which I really like. It suits people with oily skin type. I swatched the wet&wild lipstick on my hand before buying it, but it doesnt look good on my lips sadly. Also, it get rubbed off easily when I take a drink. Among the essence products I bought, I love the clear brow gel and mascara. The mascara was highly recommended by Tivya so I decided to try it out. It cost less than $10 and it works well as compared to Too-faced mascara. Catrice nail polish are affordable and long lasting too. Tried and tested when I'm using my paw patrol sanitizer at work everyday. My colleague Juliana introduced me this Tarte H2O moisturizer. I love the texture of it. It's a gel based moisturizer which does not make my face oily. It is quite pricey, but I bought it during sephora sale. As compared to my clinique moisturizer, I prefer tarte over it. Thankfully it is public holiday today, I could run my errands and pack my clothes in the wardrobe. Ciao! 

I have been putting Gen Neo's music on replay while I'm doing my law assignment. His music is so good but he is so underrated. Just found out that he is a singaporean and he used to study in Berklee college of music. That explains why I liked his music genre.

Alexander Wang Rocco VS Alexander Wang Mini Rockie

Today I'm going to blog about my favorite bag brand which is Alexander Wang. I own both the rocco and the mini rockie. I'm going to make a comparison between these two. In case you guys might wanna purchase it?

ALEXANDER WANG ROCCO 

90 pale gold studs

I purchased this bag online from Reebonz website a year ago. The colour of the bag is blush. It has 90 gold studs below the bag. Its quite heavy, weighing about 1.7kg. You can store alot of stuffs in it, however be mindful that carrying this bag for too long may cause backache. The reason why I chose this colour is because it is easy to match with my outfits especially if you have a wardrobe full of dark colour clothing. The material of the bag is lambskin. I prefer the pebbled look as compared to the smooth skin texture as it looks more aesthetically pleasing to me. When I wear denim jeans, it caused a little colour transferred on my bag. So if the colour transfer bothers you, opt for a black colour rocco. 

ALEXANDER WANG MINI ROCKIE

33 brass studs

Long wallet fits perfectly in the bag! 

Rocco VS Mini Rockie 

I purchased this mini rockie a month ago from The Outnet website. It fits my long wallet perfectly well. However, I do have difficulty taking it out sometimes when I'm in a rush. The zip is really stiff, so I don't close my bag entirely. It weighs about 0.94kg and it has 33 brass studs. So far I'm using it as my everyday bag as it looks edgy and less heavy as compared to my rocco. I hope this bag review would aid in your purchase of the A.W bag! :D

2014: What's In My Bag?

I love to watch what's in my bag tag on Youtube. Because I'm curious about the latest bag trend and what people carry in them! Thus, today post I will show you what I carry in my bag if you are curious! 

3.1 Phillip Lim Pashli

My bag is from Charles&Keith. This bag caught my attention because it looks like Phillip Lim Pashli. It comes in 3 colours (black, mustard, coral). I was contemplating between black and mustard colour. All my friends said that 'teh halia' colour will suits me better! Anyway, 'teh halia' stands for ginger tea in Malay. Because I was drinking that on the day due to having flu. Eventually, I copped this bag on Valentine's day after thinking about it for days. 

Here's the link: http://www.charleskeith.com/SGStore/CK/product?dest=SGP&art=CK2-50740923&color=23

Bag Review:

This bag comes with a strap. So when days I want to dress down, I would carry it as a messenger bag. It has a huge base which I love and it's sturdy too. This bag is not too huge or small for my frame (168cm). It's like the perfect size for my go to days! The bag can expand when you zip down both sides. 

In my bag:

I store my money and cards in my Charles&Keith long wallet. I have it since 3 years ago as a birthday gift for myself. I really need to hunt for a new wallet soon. My current wallet is ripping on the surface. Argh. An umbrella is an essential, because you never know when it rains! These past days, I was dehydrated in school. So I got myself a 750ml purple waterbottle from Cotton On to remind myself to drink lots of water. Wet wipes and dry tissue is a must! I love mints, so do anyone? Nivea body cream to keep myself moisturize! See the red pouch there? Is a handover from my aunt because she was clearing her cupboard. I thought since it looks new, might as well use it as an emergency pouch! Hahaha, you will know why..

Emergency Pouch

Now do you know why I called this my emergency pouch? I have my sanitary pads and oilment at all times because period just comes and go when they like every month. Alcohol pads and plasters in case of minor injury. Clean&Clear blotter sheets for my oily face. Nivea lip balm to keep my lip moisturize. Eye solution in case of dry eyes when wearing contact lens. Breathspray to keep my breath feeling fresh all day, all night. Hand sanitizer is self explanatory. Small compact mirror to check oneself out.

Thats the end of my "What's In My Bag?" post! Hope you guys like it and share with me what's in your bag! :D
