Holiday-ed

Hi all,

I have spent two whole weeks of holidays doing nothing useful and have wasted precious time. But nevertheless, I don't really care. Because I somehow feel that holidays are for resting not for improving any schoolwork..hehhe, that's bad. So please don't have that thinking too. It will ruin youu, really.. but still... haha i don't care la.

My routine has been sleep, wake up, eat, watch movies on pc and sleep again...and the cycle continues. I sleep most of the time..waking up late in the afternoons. However, there was once when i slept for 15 hours straight.. what a time waster I am. sigh!

But my holidays will never be completed without shopping. hehehe... what a money waster I am. Anyways.. last week, I went twice to two different places..far away in the suburbs. And today.. I unexpectedly went shopping again. There was this I don't know if u call a "shopping centre" but it's like a shopping centre.. which has a train station in the basement. It's called 'Melbourne Central'. And for so many months.. I didn't know there were so many shops there esp..clothing, shoes..etc etc, because I never explored the top or bottom levels further in.. the level where I always went.. only had restaurants all around and a fitness centre at the higher floor. So I was blur the whole time.. Moreover, the place is so much closer to my home that other shopping places like the suburbs. arghh.. not good. good that i discovered that but not good for future.. I'm afraid I'll go there and shop all the time.

Back to the shopping part.. I'm sorry yea, boys/men.. this part on is like more meant for girls to read.hehehe..cause girls like shopping right? Don't we, girls? haha, yeah.. I managed to snap some pics with camera phone. Felt so embarassed doing so.. cause I was alone the whole time. And some ppl seeing me take pics of the stuff in the shops look at me awkwardly like as if I was gonna steal the things in there. dumb ppl. So.. here goes my shop talk..

There's this shop called "Diva" which I stepped into for the first-time and alot of my friends have been there too..so dumb i didn' know about this shop. And I almost died when I entered the shop.. hahaha, not literally lar.. of course. Almost died of what u wonder? hahah, erm.. died of heart attack/excited-ness/happiness/thinking of how to not finish up my money until my brain explodes and i dunno what else.. hahah, unexplainable lar. Yea.. I LOVE the things there. Girls who like jewellery, like me, will love this shop too. So many varieties, designs, cool and nice too. I almost wanted to buy the whole shop..haha I wish! I had such a hard time choosing what to buy and almost grabbed everything.. until I have to SAD-ly eliminate one by one.




Hehe..i know u can't see them well.. just wanna show u what I saw lar. So u don't have to imagine.. haha

Bangles at the bottom



Pink and bronze





sorry if this is too much.. I just have to show u more of what i'm so crazy about







These are veryy trendy now.. necklaces that hangs down to ur chest with lots of pendants on each. Too bad I didn't buy one..I initially wanted to get one but it was eliminated. I might buy one of those another day.

Ok.. let's talk about what's in here in Melbourne and maybe in Brunei/Malaysia/Singapore or wherever too. I'm so excited to show my discovery. Discovered by observing ppl every now and then, Everywhere.

I realise that colours that resemble a sailor's uniform is Quite in.. but I don't really like it.

Let me show u.



Then Polka dotted clothing are kinda in too nowadays..but no pics

Then the hairbands



These used to be worn during the 80's isn't it? They're coming back here. Got stripe ones, polka dottted ones, cloth ones and many many designs but what u see here are the plain coloured ones. Actually in the shop Diva got lots...but didn't take pics.

Next, Skinny Leg Jeans. I got influenced and now love them too. I used to think they looked old. But now, after looking at hundreds of girls (estimately), I think they are very useful and look nice when u wanna wear jeans and boots (to me, it's the only kind of jeans that can fit into my boots) and also they make girls look very girly and nice when worn with flat "ballet-like" or round-toe shoes.




haha, okay enough of skinny-leg jeans.

errmm. another thing I noticed are sunglasses. Remember quite a number of years back, the "brightly-coloured lens" sunglasses used to be very famous. Like got blue, red, neon yellow and other colours. I remember I used to own a blue one and a two red ones.. of which I somehow have broken. I remember one of my red ones.. So sad man.. I didn't know it was on the car seat and 'Crack!'- I sat on it. Then I didn't really wanna buy sunglasses anymore since I always tend to break them. But after coming here for a week, and I guess again being influenced (by just looking at other people who were wearing them), I went and got myself a pair. But, don't get me wrong... not those brightly-coloured ones. It's those that I call "Big" sunglasses.. because they're quite huge; taking up a big part of your face. I see lots of people wearing those and so that prompted me to get one of the "Big" sunglasses too...hehe.

To show u what I mean.. Pics!

Then..




Woah! while searching for pics, I found this. Looks Almost exactly like the one I broke by sitting.. same colour some more.



Now..

Kate Moss

Britney Spears

Victoria Beckham

And lastly... Lindsay Lohan.



Notice her handbag. hhaha, MEtallic!! As I mentioned before in the tagboard, metallic stuff are soo everywhere. My favorite -bronze bronze bronze!! Anyway..err.. I also did mentioned flowy skirts before yea? haha, guess u know what those are. I always wanna wear them but must wait till summer then only safe to wear.. now winter (no snow, just low degree of temperature), wear and I'll freeze my legs only. Other things that I observed/noticed more and more people wearing and more and more shops selling both in Brunei and Melbourne are striped shirts and bohemian/gypsy-styled earrings. (* sorry if i'm outdated.. but the last time I was in Brunei those were selling at lots of places, dunno about now lar).

Because of the cold winter, I have also indulged myself in knitwear, scarves, gloves and trench coats. I know knitwear sounds like what only your grandmothers would wear.. but I still do like them.. depending on how nice-looking they are. Some can be quite nice..haha. And trench coats are sort of like jackets/coats that reach till somewhere near ur knee.. just imagine the movie 'Harry Potter'. U remember their coats? Yea.. trench coats are something like that but not as long as theirs. Theirs reach till the ankle. The trench coats one reach just somewhere near the knee ;-)

Ok.. I'll stop here. Damn, this is turning into a fashion report. I seriously could go on forever without stopping. I apologize if u're not interested in this post and find it a waste of ur precious time but thanks for reading anyway. hahaha I know not everyone cares much about what people wear at all.
