My online shopping craze....

Yup.. start again!!! I've been shopping online lot recently... Especially when it comes to cosmetic, skin care, clothing and bags.. Occasionally I will purchase stuffs on scrap booking too! But I've cut down alot on that as I really have way too much stuffs for scrapbookings. Funny that I didn't have such thought and discipline when it comes to CLOTH, BAGS and SHOES!

So yesterday while watching my new favourite blogger, From Head to Toe. I scroll to read her older post and come across this post on Fall Drugstore makeup. Basically all her make up products are purchased from Drugstore.com and so I went to check out... End up I purchase 1 eco friendly 6 piece make up brush, DUO eye lash adhesive, some eye makeups. All in all I paid about SG$40 for all 5 items!! Hahaha.. Super savings!!!

Can't wait for my items to arrive in SG.. Let's wait for another week for my items to reach SG!

And for clothings.. get to know about this online blogshop from a blogger... Hollyhoque.

I'm poorer by $100 from all the purchases above. Now waiting for items to arrive and stop spending $$!!
Gotta to save lots of $$ for wedding and flat!

Jia you!! (^_^)v

Online Shopping!!

All these while I've been using Singpost's Vpost service to purchase my USA loots. Especially to those company that do not ship internationally. And I've no complaints but raves for this service. Because as they promise, shipping is usually done within 7 working days after payment of shipping is received by Vpost.

Anyway let me get to my point.... 

And recently I've changed my skin care to Kiehl's which is very popular in USA. And their products are really good! So in love with their Rare Earth collection. My skin has tremendously improved. Lesser breakout though my pores on my cheeks..

Knowing that Kiehl's products are selling much more expensive in SG so i went to their USA website and realised 2 things :-

1) They do not ship international
2) They do not accept international credit card

My loots

So this means, i need the help of vconcierge! Process of purchase is a breeze.
Followed the instruction given my vpost. Paid for my items..
Waited for my parcel to arrive at my vpost USA address and which then i paid for my shipping.
Viola!
Items are received around 7 working days!

So now i know where i can stock up on my beauty regimen items!

Wow! It's Summer time!!!

Times flies really fast. Now it's already July. Another 5 more mths and it's end of year 2011.

Last year around this time, I was having a fun time at USA. Not really with the person that I went there to meet but having fun in the place that i've been wanting to visit. Of course not to mention, the shopping, food, and Disneyland / Universal Studios.

I really hope that someday I could visit San Francisco again but with my current bf. I'm really thankful that i've found a bf that really appreciate me and loves me for who I am.

Just like a quote that I've came across

[ A chance encounter ; hearts colliade ]

Anyway I want to share some nice calendars that i've found which can be your desktop wallpaper too!

San Francisco Trip 2010 - Golden Gate Bridge

After visiting farmers' market.. together with Mr Li and his friend, we drove our way to San Francisco... to finally view.. GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE.

Some facts on the Golden Gate Bridge on the wikipedia..

The Golden Gate Bridge is a vermillion orange suspension bridge spanning the Golden Gate, the opening of the San Francisco Bay into the Pacific Ocean. As part of both U.S. Route 101 and  California State Route 1, on the northern tip of the San Francisco Peninsula to Marin County. The Golden Gate Bridge was the longest suspension bridge span in the world when it was completed during the year 1937, and has become one of the most internationally recognized symbols of San Francisco, California, and of the United States. Despite its span length being surpassed by eight other bridges since its completion, it still has the second longest suspension bridge main span in the United States, after th Verrazano-Narrows Bridge in New York City. It has been declared one of the modern Wonders of the World by the American Sociey of Civil Engineers. The Frommers travel guide considers the Golden Gate Bridge the "possibly the most beautiful, certainly the most photographed, bridge in the world" (although Frommers also bestows the most photographed honor onTower Bridge in London, England).

 

Wasn't a really good day to visit the Golden Gate Bridge as it's a foggy day.. With the windy weather, we walked half way thru the bridge and decided to make our way back... to Pier 39 for our seafood lunch! Yippeee

Play-lot at Golden Gate Bridge

Enjoying the breeze and view....

With this fabulous kattle corn!! I love the taste of it!

Standing in front of the restaurant. True to its words, they really offer great view!

Dryer ice cream!! Enjoying ice cream in the cooling breeze is so good!

This marks my last day at San Francisco.... Love the place, the sights, the seafood.. and even the culture.

Living in US and living in SG.. seems totally different..

But most of all.. i love their outlet store!

I will definitely make my trip back to USA again...

Wanting to visit, New York, Washington DC, Florida, and many other places...

San Francisco Trip Day 13 & !4 - The last days of California

Ok.. It's almost like 4 months since I'm back from my trip and I've YET to complete all my blog posts...

Hahahah... I've to admit I'm just lazy.. =)

As my title mention, these marks the end of my 2 weeks holiday trip in the West part of United States... I'm very happy that i've the chance to visit united states and i believe i will come back again.. to visit other parts like New York, DC, Florida and many more...

Since i book the last flight back to Singapore, I still have at least 1 day in SF.. So on this very last day we went to Coit Tower and Golden Gate bridge..
Quite upset that i didn't have a chance to take the cable car! I guess it would be already fun as SF has many uphill and downhill.. Hmmm

Anyway here are the photos..

San Franciso Trip (Day 12 Night) A walk thru Las Vegas

After our visit to Grand Canyon, the tour bus drop us at our hotel around evening.

Mr Li and I quickly freshen up and continue our Vegas night.. I didn't want to walk much for 2 reasons..

1) Weather - Vegas was almost 40 degrees and even at night, the wind feels hot and dry.. Feel so tiring to walk even just crossing the road

2) Huge place. - Seriously even New York New York is just next to us.. To walk to the front of the hotel takes me 15 mins!!!!

The places that we went...

1) Coca - Cola world!
2) MGM world - to view the lions but i think we went there too late...
3) Excaliour Hotel - ended up playing acarde there as we don't know how to gamble.
3) Cacesar Place... wanted to do some shopping but all the shops are almost closing
4) It's ready mid night so we went to Denise for a super late dinner / supper!

We both are die tired.. and we fall almost immediately asleep when we hit the bed!
