Hubby is now off..

Posted in Girl Talk | 0 comments

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..

Posted in Fashion On Sale!, Handbag Picks | 0 comments

I owe you guys.. I know it’s been a month since I’ve been posting what I usually post in here – fashion finds and girlie blah blahs. For the past month every post has just been all about personal musings so I’m promising to make it up to you.

You see, I’ve been on a month-long vacation and while I wanted to blog as much as I can, but it was hard to manage with not-so good internet connections while I was there in the Philippines. Anyway, now I’m back in Phnom Penh and done with waging a war with our lugagges and my box cutter, I’m now surfing around again for an arm candy to feature here..

And I picked this..Missoni Leather Zip-Detail now at a discounted price from Outnet.com! It’s 65% off from the price of £902.13, now £315.75.

I was just drawn to the color, it looks deliciously feminine. Plus, it has a lot of pockets and compartments which I really really consider a must when it comes to tote bags. The details are also very attractive, it looks casual enough for toting around shopping and its also elegant enough to tote around for day and informal parties.

Need To..

Posted in Girl Talk | 0 comments

Relax.. That’s what I need. I was so looking forward to this trip to the Philippines that I seriously didn’t consider it would stress me out. We made various stops until we got to our final destination and traveling with a child will just make one so weary.

Once we got to my parents place, I decided to tackle the things and errands I need to do so I could have at least two weeks of uninterrupted vacation and bliss. Now, the going to and fro, traveling, traffic and chaos here in Manila is getting to me. That’s why I really really enjoy living in Phnom Penh, the pace of life is much slower, less frantic and if you ask me less stressful and you won’t even be in dire need of any wrinkle lotion! But it’s another matter here in Manila where the crowds are maddening and people always seeming to be in a hurry.

I guess I have yet to adjust. I’m checking myself in later in a spa for some massage. I need it, badly..
