Boxing Day 2013

My eldest sis flew in from Vancouver to celebrate Christmas with us, and it's a tradition that every Boxing Day, we go to a mall (with youngest sis) to do some bargain shopping. We were out of the house bright and early to get a parking space coz it gets cray cray, y'all!
Line ups to get in the stores!

The deals I scored:
North Face Metropolis parka

House of Harlow 1960 Mallory moccasins 

from my sis-in-law


We ate at a Hakka restaurant after as a reward:D
Fish pakora
Crispy ginger beef
Manchurian chicken
having coffee after 
Did you score anything over the holidays?

Ladies, it was crazy. My eldest sis is not claustrophobic but she had to leave one store because of all the people. If the kids were with me, there's no way I would have gone!

Nice finds.=) I actually prefer to shop online. Hate the crowds on shopping days like these.

I went the other day to a mall, thinking I would take a look around and maybe spend my voucher in H&M, but oh boy.. the crowds! Since we got there anyways I did go in H&M and got myself a jacket, on sale, yey.. and today I went again and bought what's supossed to be a jogging hoodie, but now I think it's too nice to be used for sweating purposes.. coz you see, I want to be a good girl in 2014 and bloody start jogging already!

PS. Oh and today I was naughty! Naughty! Got a ghd for myself, even if I specifically told Santa NOT to buy it because I have short hair at the moment, I gave in today and got it.. even if hair is short, it can be straightened already, so.. but now I really must put a lock to my card, the ghd was NOT on sale!

Sounds like you had a good time! It's not for me though, the sales after Christmas. It's just too chaotic and crowdy, I'd rather just wait it out a bit and go when there are less people.

 If you've been reading my blog for the past few months, then you know my love for Alabama Chanin. Here's the newest addition to my wardrobe. :) Alabama Chanin Flora Waffle Sweatshirt, worn with North Face jacket, UNIQLO pants, and Vans sneakers The organic waffle knit fabric is naturally dyed using Sappanwood sawdust, and the foliage design is hand-painted! What I love about Alabama Chanin is that many of their pieces are one-of-a-kind. PS It was my eldest's birthday when these pics were taken:) How was your weekend? Any new purchases lately?

Here are some recent shots taken with my Pentax K1000 film camera. I decided to mail my films and have them developed at Downtown Camera , and oh my gosh, you guys! Such a big difference with how they turned out. So so happy, and will be sending all my 35mm films to them from now on. (All these shots were how they were sent to me...no editing. Used Fujifilm ISO200 films.)
