    diary of a sale addict

    I told myself I wouldn't go, but somehow I still went. I told myself no more queuing in the wee morning, but somehow I was sitting on the hotel carpet for more than 7 hours. I told myself enough, this was going to be the last time. I still went, I don't know why. The thrill the excitement, I love it all. Above all, I love spending time with shopaholics and chatting about post pregnancy issues and costs. There's more to shopping that what it seems.

    today 27th May 1.30am

     this year wasn't so bad, the 1st line wasn't even filled

     5am onwards, people started showing up

     the place is getting hotter by the minute, serious

     barely still full, compare to 2010 was crazy

      1 more hour to opening time! I'm sweaty n smelly already

    The crowd wasn't that bad this year. Perhaps the venue change and the limitation of invites given out minimized the sale horror this year. I kinda like it, because when the doors open at 8am for the first shoppers to go in, it wasn't crowded, it wasn't stuffy and nobody was stepping onto my toes with their high heels. I still see familiar faces around! and met my readers >_

    my haul, I'm a good girl this year

    Actually my budget is only rm300 and I was eyeing Origins this year! but somehow I diverted to Bobbi Brown instead mainly because since I was the 2nd in line, it meant I could buy or see some of the really cool stuffs on sale. I was more focus this time, my first stop was Bobbi Brown, then Origins and follow by DKNY/Coach perfume section. I saw Coach perfume set for RM180 (np RM3XX). DKNY perfume sets goes from RM130 - RM180. They were gone within the first 2 hours of the sale. Origins were mainly 1/2 price, I was looking at Youthopia for some time trying to decide if I should invest in the whole anti-aging range. The price were good but the manufacture year was a bit behind. I love the Origins Ginger Set RM100 (np rm200), regretted I didn't buy the set in 2010 so I decide I should give myself a Christmas present this year. I really love it. I only stopped by by Clinique to get the big bottle of toner 400ml RM45 (pink for combi skin) for Haze. I bet everyone is curious to know what's on Bobbi Brown's table?

    At Bobbi Brown, the usual lip glosses, concealer, eye shadows can be seen. However what I was more interested to see is the palettes. Here's a sneak peek!


    party shimmer palette, onyx, brow kit and ultimate party collection
    price range from rm64-rm115

    I also saw shimmer party brick but it was too shimmery
    forgot how much lol

     my precious, my precious! Origins Ginger Set RM100
    (Ginger Souffle 100ml, Ginger Burst 100ml, Ginger Essence 50ml)

     Bobbi Brown Onyx rm64 and Ultimate Party Collection rm115
    (gone in a flash at the table!)

    love love love DKNY perfume sets!
    Fresh Blossom 50ml + lotion RM150
    Green Apple 100ml + miniature + lotion RM180

    Well all I can say is I am getting more focus in what I want, but still abit crazy due being 1/2 asleep and to compulsive buying. I wish I had more money, I would grabbed more stuffs just to keep for Christmas or Birthday presents. Maybe next year? till then Estee Lauder sales. I love you!!!
