Shopping for cold days

It's rainy season in the Penh! Time to bring out those cashmere sweaters from the closet!

The problem is I don't have one. I have a couple of cardigans but they've faded already. So guess what I did?

I shopped online. Okay, window shop.

Here's a few I found in different online stores which I like. If only, I could have their body too. Sigh.

Black is always beautiful.

Black and gray. I am loving the combination.

Pink. Girls should have one piece of clothing that is pink. At least in my humble opinion.

I love the ruffles on this.

A bright colored sweater to brighten a gloomy, cold day.

I haven't tried online shopping here in Phnom Penh. I might just do that before Christmas though.

Bamboos and Trees

Lately, I have been in the mood to decorate our apartment. I don't know what's gotten into me. I've planted roses on our pots, bought decorative stuff for our place. It's not bad. It's just that...well, since we are expats we usually just live on a bare minimum.

Anyway, I have been looking at wall papers and Manuka Wall Decals have caught my attention. I love their stuff there. Here are two of my favorites.



It's minimalist meets chic meets minimalist. Hehehe. I just love it. I wish I could find some wall decals here. Manuka, I think, is based in New Zealand.

Bowling in Heels

Possible! If you are Kim Kardashian.

Truth be told, she was actually a host of the grand opening of some bowling alley. But still, can you throw a bowling ball in that high heels? Apparently Ms. Kardashian can. Me? I'd fall flat on my face the minute I wear those killer heels. Hahahaha!!!

Old vs New

I've read the debate going on about Gap's old logo versus the new one.

And I am going to join the bandwagon. Hehehe. I love shopping at Gap. I love their tees, most of my dresses are from Gap. My son's clothes are mostly from Gap. And hubby has come to love Gap as well.

The new logo does not seem to fit Gap. I don't know. It seems like it's not well-thought of. Just my two cents.

I read they are asking people's opinion and design. Hopefully they'll come up with a better logo.

What do you think?

Bought a Gucci

Remember this post?

Well, I thought I won't buy any bag anymore. The Gucci in Shangrila was still closed when I was there. And when I went to the LV store in greenbelt, I didn't like the Delightful. It was nice but it didn't suit me.

Anyway, today we went to two different LV store along Orchard Road. Yes, I am in Singapore. I had no intention of buying anything, I was just looking around. I went in and checked the prices. The delightful still doesn't suit me. And the others were not my type.

Before going back to the hotel, we went to Gucci store, which is just in front our hotel.

Again, no intention of buying, I was just looking.

But different story from the LV store. I liked the bag I was holding. So long story short, I went home with this.





I actually forgot I wanted one like this. When I checked my blog, it's the same bag that I once posted and wanted to buy. Only different color of the handle. The one I posted was brown and I have a black one.
