Forever 21 Haul

I have always like this brand when it first came into my country. The only one available 5-6 years ago was in One Utama shopping center. I remember my first clothing from it was a grey knitted sweater with a hood and the sweater is not a full body sized one and the sleeves were until my elbow. It was kinda expensive around 160 ringgit but looking at the knitted part I reckon it was around that price. It is a stylish sweater and I still have it in good condition in my cupboard. Overall Forever 21 has clothes that are the latest and trendiest styles around but sadly the price is not cheap. After looking at the US websites, I noticed that it was cheap in the states whereby t-shirt could be less than 10 USD and you could get bottoms such as skirts, jeans and pants less than 30 USD. Where else in KL, it cost a lot like I once bought a pair of skinny jeans for around 175 ringgit when it was around 30 USD. I'm quite sadden by the pricing here.

My friend Tracy was sent to Boston for work training and was kinda enough to help me bring back some items. So I took the opportunity to order from F21 and it's free shipping in the states if it's more than 50 USD. Hence I bought 2 skirts, 2 belts and 2 pieces of accessory. When she came back and handed me the items I was thrilled inside and looked forward to trying it.

Lace-Up Pencil Skirt (front)

The material for this is skirt a stretchy type of cloth and it hugs the body in a good way. The best part to me was it only cost 14.80 USD. I don't think you could find such cheap pricing here in KL at all which uses okay material. The quality is averagely good for a price like that.

Lace-Up Pencil Skirt (back)

I love the lace up part at the back it's so feminine.

Beaded Ballerina Skirt (Cream color)

Next this is a cream color skirt which I love a lot. There are a total of three layers where the most inner one is a lining. This skirt cost 22.80 USD which I feel is so worth it, so cheap. Great quality, latest trend of skirts now, I'm so happy to have picked it online and was able to fit it perfectly.

Buckled Elastic Belt (Brown), Woven Leatherette Belt (Brown), Caged Bird Necklace(Antic Gold), Birds in Flight Earrings (Peach/Gold)

I bought the necklace with a pair of earrings to match each other and I feel it's adorable. Those brown belts can match clothes easily and brown is a softer color than black which gives me the impression that it's more serious and brown is more casual. I would most likely match plain colored shirts with the ballerina skirt, not sure yet but maybe I can find some interesting shirts too. Looking forward to matching it to my style. I hope I will have other means of purchasing from the site as the style there are the latest and trendiest compared to those available for sale here in KL.

Just a little haul

This is my first time blogging on this, it's more pictures than words actually. Last weekend, Isetan had a special member 3 day sale where members get extra 10% on certain items. If you shopped on Friday itself there were more deals and special discounts. On Saturday seeing that my uncle and family came back to KL we meet up in Mid Valley Megamall for lunch.  My sister and I went earlier before lunch to shop a bit or at least just walked around and enjoy the aircon instead of the hot humid weather at home =P.

So we head to Isetan first and looked the special deals and so I ended up purchasing some skin care and make up. Below are some pictures:

I'm a fan of Estee Lauder and my skin care is the Hydration range. The big cosmetic bag came with buying the moisturizer and it also had the cleanser, eye cream and serum given for free. Usually for the same price you would not get any of those items. Upon purchasing the BB Creme from Estee Lauder, Isetan had a special deal where by you get a eye shadow palette, a mini size mascara and a full size lipstick. As you can see from the pictures, the colours in the palette are wonderful, so worth it. I know I looked like I spent a lot but it's not too much because I have saved up a few months before considering purchasing all these. I would also like to share my Sephora haul as Sephora Malaysia officially opened here at Starhill Gallery, KL right across Pavilion Mall. 

The scrub and shower gel from Soap & Glory absolutely smells great and works like a charm too. After using the scrub, my elbows which are usually rough have softer and smoother skin. After using the shower gel for about 2 weeks my skin feel smoother and my legs are more moisturized even without body cream. Other than that I bought two items which I adore months ago, I think it's about 3 months ago.

My lips are really pigmented and this lip gloss from MAC works wonderfully. Even their lipstick can't cover my red lips and this one had it's beautiful shade retained and so I purchased it. Also it was limited edition, Wonder Woman inspired for the Spring Collection. High Beam is from benefit and it's a highlighter which you use on your cheekbones, brow bone and your nose usually. After using it I notice the difference in my pictures and with the highlights my skin looks healthy and naturally glows.

These products lasts me a long time, like more than a year so I won't be spending on cosmetics and skin care for a long time =).
