July Picks and Rant

I feel like writing so here I am. I’ll post up my 2nd and 3rd batch of Sandakan pictures later this week. Just uploading the pictures on blogger can put a mosquito to sleep (which they don’t).  This month is Raya Month which means “Sales” and SALES.

Here in Tawau, the narrow walkways are lined up with small stalls selling Raya clothing,cookies, headwears, knick-knacks, ugly plastic flowers, knockoff Aviator Rayban’s (Will cause serious eye defects)watches, shoes  oh yeah specially shoes, knockoff’s of Adidas/Nike shoes which looks rather pleasing to the eye. I might get a pair. No one’s going to know that it’s FAKE. Seriously, original and fake what’s the diff. Even the workmanship of the originals can be utter shitwork. 

I went shopping alone (As usual) to get my Prince his supply of veggie, morning newspaper and lunch. Visited the bookstore to check for my cheesy mag (Cleo) but it’s not here yet. There’s no proper bookstore here where you can buy your novels. Most reading materials are either in Malay or Chinese even the magazines. The chances of finding trolls and elves are much higher than finding English reading materials.
I bought a couple of things. Few items from last month, so I’m bringing it forward.

June Buys


More nail polish.Love the purple glitter and the blue.I bought two bottles last year and I haven’t tried them out.I shall buy more..Only RM2.50
They can spell Nourishing but can't spell Design..humm.


 I absolutly adore this backpack. It’s made out of raffia strings and sewn with sponge on the inside.Bought it in a gift shop in Semporna for RM 30

Lightweight and gorgeous. Bought it together with the backpack at RM 20


July Buys

Yes! It’s nail polish alright, B.O (Bad Odour) Purple and Blue Metallic.I think I should show my nail polish collection.Oh! it’s not that many bottles (ahem).Zip bag case for my makeup.I’ve seperated them from my other bag cause I need space for my other stuff and a twelve coloured eye palette.

Lip Gloss,Lipsticks,Eye-shadow,Eyeliner blahblah



 MOTHER HOME trademark by IEONG, Cheng Son in Macau, Macau

What a brand name “Mother Home”..WTF??? but I like the colors. I don’t think I’ll get pus infected eyelids after using them.They maybe not your Urban Decay, MAC and other brands, but I don't give two hoots.The pigmentation on the colors are pretty good,easy to apply with one swab of your finger.I bought this at the 100yen shop for RM 7.00.If I don’t like it, I’ll probably turn the colours into nail polish.


Lastly

I passed by this clothing store the other day and I made a note to go back and so I did.Basically it’s a wholesale shop which caters to korean fashion.I was contemplating whether to enter or leave but since I walked all the way and being curious jane,might as well. Normally,stores like these offer clothing for stick people and I’m not a stick (No Trying...Free Size).

Thankfully I was lucky that day and I managed to bag two floral print blouses for RM 39.90 each.Short sleeved see through chiffon blouse. 






Also, I’ve been doing some online shopping.Yes!! it’s Acessories and plenty of it.Some items are belated gifts for a good friend.She recently bought a jewellery armoir and it needs items. Since it’s August already, two very special people will be celebrating their birthdays..Friend No 1. On the 19th and my BFF on the 20th...How cool is that..Shopping Timeee :}...


OooOO I got myself more clothing,but this time I’m buying them online. It’s a little risky especially pants although they give you the measurements n such.I pray that it fits.Well that’s all for July..
