If you’re a shopaholic like me, you’ll want to subscribe to my RSS feed to find out about the latest in shopping.The girls and I went to the MPH book sale and came home with these. It’s a small stack compared to what we usually hoard back from other warehouse sales.
We normally get books really [...]
Metrojaya voucher gets me a new handbag
Posted on August 4, 2008 - Filed Under clair's closet fashion & style rewards & rebates | Leave a Comment
I had an rm50 voucher from Metrojaya that’s going to expire soon. So yesterday, I had to go to Midvalley out of desperation. I try not to go to Midvalley on the weekend because the parking and crowds drive me nuts.
But yesterday, I had no choice. Worse still, I had DH and Steev with me. [...]
slimmer goes shopping!

We have a wedding to go to at the end of this year. Good thing we were told early. I like being given lots of leeway to plan what to wear and you know, to get started on diet pills if need be .
I’ve got a few little black dresses that I haven’t worn [...]
I refused my first plastic bag!
Posted on July 5, 2008 - Filed Under clair's closet save the environment | 1 Comment
The kids and I are seriously hamburger-deprived at this stage. We haven’t eaten out in a whole week. So first stop - Carl’s Jr. Since we can’t afford even the cheapest Vegas vacations, we might as well stuff ourselves silly with hamburgers, right?
I had a shopping list to fulfill after lunch. So we stopped by [...]
do you keep a stash of food and essentials?
Posted on June 18, 2008 - Filed Under clair's closet save money talk shop | Leave a Comment
I’ve been grocery shopping like crazy the past couple of weekends since the fuel price increase. Actually it doesn’t have much to do with the price increase. I’m just a chronic bulk shopper, that’s all.
I like the comfort of knowing I have stock on hand instead of having to rush out like a desperado to [...]
liking those eco-friendly tote bags
Posted on April 16, 2008 - Filed Under clair's closet tips & ideas | Leave a Comment
You know those free eco-friendly tote bags that many malls are allowing you to redeem for a certain amount purchased?
Well, I’ve got quite a collection now from different places. Initially I thought they were the ugliest things ever, especially with their names or brands printed on.
I still don’t like to be caught doing free advertising [...]
breaking cosmetic cases

My Elianto eyeshadow cover broke on me yesterday and fell off, just like that. Previously it was the loose powder box that started falling to pieces.
I like browsing their products because the girls don’t bug me much. I hate the counters/shops where the promoter follows me around and keeps trying to explain things to me [...]
what to do if you bought the wrong shade of loose powder?
Posted on February 20, 2008 - Filed Under clair's closet fashion & style | Leave a Comment
I’ve just realized what a mistake I made with buying my loose powder. I’ve always bought powder that’s one shade lighter than my skin tone, as all the magazines suggest.
Recently I decided that I’d gotten a bit more tanned than I used to be. I don’t know what gave me that idea. But it made [...]
potpourri and dried flowers
Posted on November 13, 2007 - Filed Under clair's closet health & beauty | Leave a Comment
My entire room smells so good right now. All because I dug up a whole boxful of potpourri that I bought on my last trip to Australia. I’m planning to give some bags of it to a friend. I don’t know why I bought so many. Must be my hoarding instinct .
When I [...]
my elevated flip-flops
Posted on October 24, 2007 - Filed Under clair's closet fashion & style | Leave a Comment
Strolling along at the mall, I fell in love with this pair of casual slip-ons or elevated flip-flops .
These are not easy to come by as most of the ones I see around are flip-flops.I prefer something with a little height so my feet don’t feel so icky. Okay, so I’m being obsessive-compulsive [...]
