Welcome

Thanks for visiting my humble blog! I hope you enjoy reading my reviews about shopping; beauty (I love skincare & fuss free make up products) and pampering rituals like spas and massages.

I occasionally talk about food and travel but my passion is sharing about must buys and must tries from my shopping escapades. So leave a comment for me even if it’s to say meow!

At Butterfly Project, we design monthly projects for bloggers that would benefit, motivate and encourage them to find their voice, goals and dreams.

Armed to inspired and be inspired back, I went about dreaming of the ultimate spa party for the community to participate in. I have always love spas and what more a party?

Hi..I never know Krabi would be that beautiful..Thank you for sharing the photos and experience with your readers..I'm definitely gonna put it into a must go place for me then..I bet the kayak part was the most memorable for both you and your fiance because i was once in your situation..thou i'm with my girl bestfriend..and she's very slim and small while me i'm very plus size and big..haha..can you imagine how the canoe will be once we're inside it? I thought it surely be imbalance but surprisingly it does not! A miracle for me! Haha..regarding your question "what takes two to rock!" which I think have the same meaning with "It Takes Two to Tango" idiom but i think "what takes two to rock" sounds much more rockingly crazy and cheeky..haha..so answer to your question I think its just when two peoples that have strong telepathy connection towards each other..I'm not sure what the exact word but its like just through looking at each other eyes you can understand what the other is thinking. There is no need for words. For your situation with your fiance in Krabi I think both of you have the same feeling during the Kayaking..which is let's just get over with it baby! The Kayaking is killing your arms but the experience and memories are priceless and precious to both of you. ^___^

Love the pictures,espcially the one where it looks like the both of you are having such a good time kayaking,making faces and even digging noses. When two people are so connected and so comfortable with each other that's a rocking realtionship :) And that brings me to my answer it takes two to rock an experience, whether it's an awesome moment, a hilarious situation or even a soulful experience, it's always better to have someone to share it with, dont you think?


heyya Tammy, what an awesome holiday you had with your fiance at Krabi ^_^ I wish to go there too, one fine day with my beloved. Well, to answer your question "what takes two to rock?", I would say it takes two to rock a beautiful everlasting relationship :) yeah people can always say that they are content with themselves, but the eternal happiness ? it takes two! doesn't matter with whom we would love the relationship to be, two is the perfect number. relationship between our self and God ? it takes two. between us and partner ? it takes two. or, between us and our pet ? two is still the answer :)

Malaysia International Gifts & Premium Expo 2013 (MIGP)

5.11.2013

Malaysia International Gifts & Premium Expo 2013
13th - 15th May, 2013 @ KLCC

There is PC Fair, Beauty Expo, Wedding Fair, HomeDec and even Education Fair but have you heard of the gifts and premium expo before? I must be living in the dark all this while because I didn't know such expo existed until lately when my friend told me about it. Being quite curios about what the fair has to offer and the prices from wholesaler and retailers, I am going to check this out next week for my company and for myself too. Who knows I could find a really good price to start my own beauty box company? (like there's not enough out there haha) or my own zakka shop. I also think this is a good place for party planners out there in Malaysia. The usual crowd would be coming from corporate to loyalty programme sectors as well as retailers and government agencies. I bet this year since the indie market is trending, they'll be expecting some quite hippie, artsy crowds coming.

The Expo: Malaysia's International Gifts & Premiums Expo (MIGP Expo)
Date: 13 – 15 May 2013 (Monday – Wednesday)
Visiting Hours: 10.00am – 6.00pm
Venue: Hall 4, Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre

 looks pretty interesting to check out

I am going to check out the market rates at this expo because when I get married, I would like to make my own wedding favors (that's if I don't turn into a Bridezilla). Also it would be a good place to get inspired with ideas. Example - when I see cute tiny Cinderella carriage boxes I immediately think about having a Cinderella birthday party and inviting all my friends to a magical dinner. When midnight strikes, everyone should tear off their clothes and start disco dancing. Well that's just me and my crazy ideas.

so what's MIGP about? 

This saying is a driving force in the gift and premium industry. The art of gifting has been practiced on a personal and corporate level. Companies present gifts and premiums to show their appreciation to their customers and partners as well as for branding and incentive programs. MIGP Expo 2013 is making its comeback as the 3-day intensive business gathering for gift & premium suppliers to showcase their latest range of products to potential customers from the corporate and public sector. It is the event where potential buyers visit to source for new gift ideas and meet the industry suppliers face-to-face.

example of last year's MIGP expo

I think this is great to customize your own tote bags

party/wedding ideas & craft supplies

spotted wedding favor boxes!

if you're looking for more elegant & luxurious gifts

this is interesting acrylic display stands, holders!

this is one of the booths I want to check out!

The MIGP website showcases a list of participating exhibitors for this expo which I find quite useful to do research before going because there is a total of 60 booths at this expo! The website also shows samples of the products by exhibitors and a brief introduction on what they do. Here is a list of items that will be showcased at the expo. I hope to find some good deals on clearance favor boxes and organza bags! Tell your friends about this expo because it might help them to save or give them an idea on what to do for their upcoming event or business.
