I've been scouring the internet for a dress for our pre-wedding photoshoot and I think I've found the one on Anthropologie :)
Kingston Road Dress by Anthropologie - USD$228
It's a tad pricey but if it's gonna be for the wedding, I don't mind forking out a lil more...plus it's not too dressy which means I can wear it out as often as I like!
December is fast approaching!!! This means EVERYONE is a busy bee at work. The festival is in January and I am in denial.
Where did the year go?! My stationery business will have to take a backseat during this busy period. I might put my etsy on vacation mode but I'll churn out more holiday photocards and custom envelopes before I go on hiatus. The brisk sales from my Zazzle store is really motivating me to design something every day :) I hope the sales will keep coming in because I'm saving up for a holiday in Bali in April, as soon as the crazy period in the office is over! *crosses fingers*
IN OTHER NEWSSSSSS....
I did a lil bit of online shopping which is one of the best things ever I swear. Firstly, who doesn't like shopping? Secondly, I LOVE receiving packages in the mail, it's like opening a present that you know you will love! haha!
ASOS is having free shipping to anywhere in the world (it's usually GBP 10.5) so I decided to do some click clackin around...
I got myself a roomy black bag perfect for work at a not so scary price tag! 51% off retail price :)))
I got this French Connection Stitch Zip Top Bag and I love it! It's roomy so I can put my A4 documents in there. It's not heavy or weighed down with metal embellishments so that's good. The bag's not leather but the quality isn't so bad. I've used it for 2 days now and so far so good. It's starting to grow on me :) Usual retail price was GBP 75 and I got it for GBP 37. I think I got the last one cos when I had it in the cart, the red 'sold out' text appeared on the page when I went to look at it again. Lucky me!
Last week, I burnt a hole on this lovely ruffle sleeve teal top from Mango. It was such a lovely blouse I was really pissed at myself for not realising the iron was too hot for silk. ARGH! I still feel crappy inside whenever I think about. I love ruffle sleeves because I don't have skinny arms and the ruffles hide my flabby flip flappin arms. haha!
I saw this mink top in the petite section and I had to have it. I love the nude colour. love love love! GBP 26 was a bit steep for a top but I was still angry at myself for destroying the teal top and I needed a replacement pronto. The eyelet swimsuit on the right was a steal cos I brought it the next day when ASOS had a 20% off on their range. I got it for GBP 17!!! What.a.steal. I had to have it. Zahir kept asking me to go to the beach with him but there is no chance in hell am I gonna wear a bikini. My body is NOT bikini ready. I needed a suit but it's so pricey everywhere...most of them were above $60 and those are the basic plain boring ones :P
Oh and I gotta say, ASOS shipping is surprisingly fast! My order was dispatched on the 19th and it arrived on 25th even though shipping was supposed to take 10 days :)
Thanks to the low USD recently (and currently!), my colleague and I decided to go on a retail therapy on Amazon. The books came recently...look at what I got!
My new books!
