Random Ramblings: Low Buy anyone?

The past few months were crazy months for polish buying! There was soooo many sales and offers and discounts going about all over the place. Online, offline, etsy, Sephora, Llarowe. Gaaaahhh! I for one couldn’t resist them and bought a whole bunch of polishes!

So for the month of February onward till hopefully June, I am going to set myself on a low-buy. Not a no-buy because I would be good the whole month and go crazy once the month ends. I think I have had 2 or 3 no buys 3 months apart. I would buy things on the first month, receive most of the items in the second month and by the time the third months come rolling by I’ll be all – OMG I bought too much polishes the past month! It’s going to be a No-Buy next month! Rinse and Repeat! It is a vicious circle that never ends!

This time around, my low-buy is going to cover all aspects of my life! From not buying too much junk food to buying clothes and shoes (Luckily we do not have 4 seasons in Malaysia :D) to nail polishes and beauty products! I know I cray cray. This low-buy thought not as extreme as a no-buy will still be kinda hard. But I gotta be hard on myself for the sake of my bank account and pending holidays.

Plus! With some packages that I have yet to receive, I should have enough of everything to last me a few months.

Wish me luck girls!

The Randomness Continues~

I finally got my hair cut!

I have mentioned before that I was planning to get my hair cut but have been putting it off until I have found a charity/independent body that collects hair to make wigs for cancer patients. But up to date, I have yet to find anyone that collects hair!

Last Sunday, I finally thought – Just cut it (my hair) and save it till you find someone that collects. And that was what I did.

This are the results:

(I have clarify that my before hair doesn’t always look like this. It only seems super unruly because my hair was tied up in a bun for an hour or so that morning. I didn’t exactly have time to comb it out and fluff it up at the coffee shop right before I went to the salon.)

Kinda drastic don’t you think? I think I took about 16-18 inches off! My hand slipped many times while washing because I still haven’t gotten used to the fact that my hair is so short now!

For now I have to keep an eye (and an ear) out to see who/where in Malaysia collects hair to make wigs 🙂

Wish me luck!

Birthday Prezzies!

November is over and these are my lovely presents I got this year!

I think my friends and family decided that I should go blue this year! LOL

The blue dress is from my parents. They got this while they went on a short trip to Australia recently. It is an interesting piece. It has lace detailing on the neckline while the rest of the dress is soft and flowy. Just like the delicate flower prints on it!

The next blue item is a bag from one of my close friends! She included a note with it and it reads ‘This is not black but I hope it goes with all your black items!’ Yea, I think I do have a problem with black clothing. I rearranged my wardrobe the other day and realised that almost 30% of my tops are black. Lets not talk about shoes and dresses. LOL

The small items in the photo is a VS Fall Runway Eyes eye make-up kit from a colleague, a box of really nice chocolates and a red packet from my brothers. Not pictured in this photo was a box of macarons from my brother’s girlfriend which  I have already had half of. LOL!

Last but definitely not least is a present from my lovely boyfriend. That little box in the top of the photo It is a  Fossil Wallace Rose Gold Glitz. I looove it!! It is classy yet casual at the same time!

Although it may not seem like a lot but I am definitely one lucky girl! I have friends and family who love me and that’s what matters most! 🙂
