Mum has been asking me to bring her for shopping as I seldom bring her out for shopping anymore due to my recent busy schedule on weekend. So yesterday I took some time off from everything and off we go!
Destination – 1 Utama. This is the loot that I came home with. We shop from 10am to 1pm 🙂
As it’s my birthday month I use my 30% discount birthday card from Padini to get a few pairs of shoe. I don’t care if you are a Charles & Keith lover and that you think Vincci is a cheapo brand but for me I’ve been wearing them since high school and I’m not going to stop buying them. They made good and nice flats. I’m very much into flats now.
There are a few flats on promotion such as RM80 for 2 pairs. I had my eyes on the holey colorful peep toe flats as soon as I walked in. Settled with a red and blue although I like the brown as well. I was thinking to get all 4 colors LOL. I went with 30% discount on original price of RM49 per pair as it’s much more cheaper than RM80 promo. I saw a black and white pump which resemble oxford pump but unfortunately the heel at the back had a deep scratch and it’s the last pair. So I got the black one for RM89 before discount although there’s a few light scratches on the heel and it’s the last pair too :(. My last pair would be this rope cotton flower high heels for RM109. You should see the shoe from the side. It’s gorgeous. For every RM60 purchase I was given a canvas bag. With my total purchase of RM207.20 (RM88.80 saving) I was given 3 canvas bags.
I walked in to Uniqlo to get a pink baby tee for next week’s Estee Lauder Breast Cancer Awareness illumination event. This is only RM39.90. Super comfy.
Also bought some random stationery from Jusco. Bubble wrap RM4.90, big adhesive tape RM2.50 and small Loytape RM1.40 each.
I went hunting for a retractable lip brush and bought one from Watsons for RM18.90. I also use my L’Occitane RM20 birthday voucher to get a Shea Butter Hand Cream. I don’t have anything to buy at all can you believe it. The hand cream was RM38. I was given a 5% discount which makes the total RM36.10. I only paid RM16.10 after deducting the RM20 birthday voucher 🙂
Another big haul of the day is from Daiso. I bought a board as photo background prop, a pack of protection sheet to wrap all the products in blog sales, a huge pack of paper hand towel for the office, a bottle of sponge cleanser, a bottle of detergent for women, a 30ml vacuum essence bottle (tips post coming soon), a pack of Little Twin Stars clear bag, a pack of Hello Kitty plastic bag, a pack of smaller Little Twin Stars clear bag and a pack of floral paper bag.
Although yesterday’s shopping wasn’t a beauty shopping but I had fun especially at Daiso. I sort of went crazy with those Hello Kitty and Little Twin Stars clear bags that I need to put back some.
Did anyone went shopping too? There’s Isetan Anniversary Sales happening too.

Me too. I go Daiso all the time. Always like the craft section
all thing in daiso only cost rm5 for each item~~ :DD really nice hor ;D
Yes all RM5 each. Some worth it. Some don’t.
U went shopping or you and your mum? Where’s auntie’s purchases? 😛
Me an mum :P. Auntie only bought 2 packs of magic sponge at Daiso LOL!
*cough* some said she was broke *cough* *cough*
Memang broke babe :p
Birthday card only once a year hehe. Daiso haul is accumulated wishlist. But the Hello Kitty and Little Twin Stars is unexpected purchase.
Be careful of unexpected purchases. You’ll end up loading your shopping basket with too many goodies. I always tell myself “Oh I am going to get 2 items at Daiso, then I’ll go home”. That’s true until I see Hello Kitty and Little Twin Stars items. I’ll put one item after another into the shopping basket. RM10 becomes RM100 or more. Hehehehe.
Don’t worry. I can control my spending habit 🙂
Someone called me a “child” because of my liking for Hello Kitty. LOL. I don’t think age matters where Hello Kitty is concerned. Hello Kitty is cute and I love Hello Kitty. I don’t show it to everyone though – some might freak out, some find it ah so cute. I hope Daiso brings in more Hello Kitty goodies. It is cheap and affordable and I can share the cuteness with so many people 😛
I like your level of brokeness 😉
I know right. I could only spend 300 bucks for everything lol!! It used to be 2k for skincare & makeup every month. Sigh 🙁
Due to your commitments, e.g. car loan etc?
Nah. Commission is not in yet. Next year I’d be normal haha
Come to think of it, sometimes I’m glad I’m such an amateur when it comes to makeup. Hahaha! Otherwise, I might end up buying everything that catches my eyes *omg*
Soon you’d be into makeup ;). Every girl will evolve in stages LOL!!
next year only can be normal because christmas sales is coming this end of year. hahahha
Wow nice haul, i no shopping as need buy son school uniform at least three set
Oppss. Your comment went to spam folder. Sorry. I’ve retrieve it back now 🙂
vincci’s flats are not what i’d called nice. The base of these flats are hard and unbendable. uncomfortable to wear even for a short time and not suitable for walking. i am not a fan of any particular brand but i prefer to buy flats with better quality, i have bought a pair of sembonia flats for RM100 and the base is soft rubber. Payless has good flats too.
Yes not many people like Vincci. My feet are used to Vincci so no problem for me :). I have 2 pairs of Salvatore Ferragamo Varina Ballerina Flat but I find myself wearing Vincci more on daily basis because it’s cheap so I don’t have to worry about spoiling the shoe. So sometimes affordable shoe comes handy 😉
my apology for the reckless comment made above. i made the comment without seeing the picture of the vincci flats( therefore assuming they were the typical ballet flats). i was actually sorry for what i’d said after seeing the picture because the style is very nice
sorry for being a menace
Oh no. You owe me no apology. I understand that each person’s shoe requirement is different. 99% of my friends hated Vincci shoe but I’m okay with it. I walk a lot so getting a cheaper shoe seems a better choice for me 🙂
Cheers.
