Hubby is now off..
For the next few months anyway, so though I feel weird I’m managing pretty well. Hmm, I realized I could perhaps survive without him for a few weeks/months but hehe not forever so now I’m actually counting the days I could see him again. I miss him, though my sister said maybe that’s because I don’t have anyone to order around? Lol!
Anyway, we got back from our vacation two weeks ago and since hubby was leaving after a few days, the next couple of days were spent in a flurry of activities. Typical of him, he waited for me before even shopping for things he needed to add to his wardrobe. Were living now in a tropical country so he didn’t have much of cold/autumn/winter clothes.
Thankfully, though its really scorching hot here in Phnom Penh we could still easily find a lot of clothing for cold places and at a lot cheaper prices. We ended up scouring Phnom Penh’s Russian Market/Tuol Tompong Market’s factory overuns sections and came out with lots of cardigan sweaters, a winter jacket, shirts, a couple of jeans and socks.
Hmm, I think he’s a more picky shopper than me, but I’m quite pleased he leaves it up to me and agrees with most of my clothing picks..

I have a thing for outerwear and coats, I think they look fab and so sleek and I fancy myself wearing one. I imagine I’d look a little bit sexier and elegant. But yeah they are simply imaginings since I live in a tropical country and if I wear that here people might think of me as weirdo or perhaps someone with a strange affinity to kids halloween costumes.
So yeah these pretty things will go to my ‘Only in My Dreams’ collection, err because of their steep price tags as well as the impossibility of me wearing it here..But who knows? Someday soon I might be in someplace where wearing these is commonplace. I’m crossing my fingers for that to happen soon..
Anyway here’s my latest picks of designer coats and outerwear..
Roberto Cavalli – Embroidered Long Coat & Sheer Crochet-Neck Blouse ($6,485.00) from Neiman Marcus
