Anya Hindmarch Autumn Winter Collection 2010

Posted by IcedNyior on November 10, 2010  |  2 Comments

I got invited to Anya Hindmarch Tea Party by April who got it from Erin. Headed down to KLCC Sat Morning after waking up late because I didn’t set my alarm. Hehe sorry April!

Got there around 12.30pm (awesomely got from Damansara to KLCC in less than 30 mins) was greeted by friendly Sales Assistants at Anya Hindmarch KLCC. Was greeted by this awesome display of cakes and desserts below.

Red velvet cakes, dainty fruit tarts, truffle and macarons, all were gorgeously presented in such a pretty way (note the flowers at the back). I was so amazed at how they managed to fit 4 tables & chairs, the middle table for the food and a side table for drinks – coffee, tea and sparkling white wine (I believe).

And in the midst of all this, we were treated to a preview of the 2010 Autumn Winter Collection. Rows and rows of bags along all the walls tempting in their unique yet classic designs and colours.

The Body Shop Malaysia 2010 Sale + price list

Posted by IcedNyior on May 21, 2010  |  8 Comments

Yes ladies! Its here! Woot! From 21 May to 13 June 2010, all the West Malaysia outlets are on sale (refer here). Not sure about Sabah or Sarawak though. I first found out about it from the shoppingnsales site and later got a list of the items on sales from Miu.

Besides the items mentioned above, there are some Sets (eg, 3 x mini body lotion in nice bamboo/woody box) on sale for 50% or less. I popped by TBS outlet in Bangsar Shopping Center (while dragging my colleague along) and got my Body Shop Fix.

My Haul

• Retail price : RM38.00
• Discount : 70%
• Price after discount + 10% members = RM 10.26

Body & Shower Gel – Peach & Raspberry (250ml)

• Retail Price: RM24.90
• Discount : 50%
• Price after discount + 10% members = RM 11.20

Body & Shower Gel – Cassis Rose (250ml)

Pressed Face Powder – 04 (not in pic)

I bought a total of 8 + 1 (for colleague) items amounting to RM150+. Some other Items that I remember:

• Body puree raspberry – 50%
• Body & Shower Gel (400ml) Pink Grapefruit – 50% = RM22+ or so
• Mandarin Orange Shower Gel + Body Lotion set – 70% i think
• Bath lily, scrub = 10%
• Soaps – 10%
• EVERYTHING in the store is on sale, at least 5%
• These makeup items pictured are 30%-50% off. Lip glosses, the multi blush, etc. Other makeup items all 10% off
  

The sale will be until 13 June and applicable for everyone.
Members Special : On 21-23 May, all members get 10% off already discounted prices.

Note that the member’s special is calculated like this:

If the item RP is RM10 the discount is 50%,
The price will be RM 5 minus 10% member discount
TOTAL= RM 4.50

Not a total of 60% discount on the item. Remember this, because I did some miscalculation in the beginning. Also a tip, choose an outlet that is less crowded. I remember how packed it was at the Midvalley outlet during the last sale. I swear it was madness.

So tell about your haul :D

——————-

Decided to update with more price lists from readers :)

• tea tree cover stick for RM16 (50% off) and pomegranate body spray for RM10 (70% off) – chloe
• Tea Tree Facial Scrub = RM20 – @junw3n

Stila Cosmetics Haul

Posted by IcedNyior on April 22, 2009  |  4 Comments

As many girls know, Stila closed its counters in Malaysia (and other international sites) preferring instead to sell in the US only.

The best part? They had a clearance sale of all their cosmetics and merchandise ranging from 50% – 70%! Awesome. This was a chance for me to finally pick up some stila makeup (because they are a bit out of my price range :().

Anyway, this was my haul

• Stila mug
• Get The Look palette (I think its Look #2, cant rmbr) – 3 eyeshadows in Lame, Oasis & Coin) + 1 Cheek color in Tint + 1 It Gloss Lip Shimmer in Enchanting
• Stila Step Out & Shine Holiday 2008 Collection – Silver Clutch with purple lining, Lip & Cheek Stain in Pomegranate, Stila Convertible Color in Orchid, Stila All Over Shimmer Luminize, Stila Multi-Effect Mascara Black, Montmartre Eyeshadow Quad Palette
• Stila Lip Glaze in.err i forgot, but its a brownish colour with speckles of glitter (I’ll update it later)

Total Damage : RM260 *sweat*

Yes, i know I spent a lot, but considering that the Lip Glaze is normally sold at rm90 was only RM45, I got tempted. Hehehe! Oh yea, i bumped into Miu at the Stila counter in Gardens

Now have to makan megi till end of the month (or write more posts)

My Online Shopping Addiction

Posted by IcedNyior on May 29, 2008  |  No Comments

My name is IcedNyior and I’m an online shopaholic.

Its weird you know. Ask any of my friends like Pam or Aree and ask them how I am when we go out shopping. I’m usually the one who tags along, gives comments and only once in a while do I buy something – and that is quite seldom.

However, online shopping hit me like a mind blowing orgasm. LOL! Its so hard to stop myself from transferring over money for this or that item. Sprees are the worst!

Sprees are when people all gather their orders and order stuff from international websites like Bath and Body Works, Victoria Secret, Sephora, Amazon, etc then save on shipping costs. Its usually organized by two people – one in US and one over here. So the websites ships the items to person in US who then ships it to someone here who then distributes it to everyone else.

So yea anyway, I got the two packages I was waiting for. Yey! I mentioned it a few posts back coz I have to wait a month for the stuff to get here.

I bought these items

• Bath and Body Works Black Raspberry & Vanilla Body Splash = RM30
• Victoria’s Secret Beauty Rush Grapefruit Blast Double Body Mist = 2 for USD27.90
• Victoria’s Secret Beauty Rush Grapefruit Blast Body Drink Lotion= 2 for USD27.90
• I actually bought another BBW Chocolate Amber Body Splash but I didn’t like the smell so I sold it off to someone else at the same price I bought it.

I also bought these products from elf (EyesLipsFace.com) at Rm50 for 6

• Candy Shop Lip Tins – Berry Pop & Cherry Bomb
• Wet Gloss Lash & Brow Clear Mascara
• Brightening Eye Colour – Drama, Luxe & Ivy
• Brightening Eye Liner – Coffee
• Natural Radiance Blusher – Flushed
• Earth & Water Mascara Duo – Brown
• Bought a few other elf items for my sisters also.

Haven’t had the chance to try it yet tho. Will write reviews soon.

Of books and online shopping

Posted by IcedNyior on April 29, 2008  |  4 Comments

Someone said that its been a while since I wrote a proper post. Sorry! Been so busy lah :P Main been catching up with all my pending assignments. Have 3 projects this final sem *die!*. One of my assignments requires a short animation in 3d and this is my character, a lego man/robot. Thats a rendering of my character. I had to add knees to my lego man to allow for better movement later when I animate it. This class is really so much fun! We did bones last week and this week we’re doing skinning. Its all done in 3ds max 6. I actually have 3dsmax 9 but the lab uses 6 so better use 6 lor.

Okay, nuff about school work. I went to the PayLessBooks Warehouse sale last Sunday. It was sooo cheap! Fiction books for RM12 for 5 books and science fiction books buy 1 free 1, even for hard covers. The bf was so excited to see a StarWars hard cover book for only RM18 and a Dick Tracy book. He ended up buying 4-5 books. I ended up buying 8 books- 5 fiction (RM12), 2 science fiction (RM8) and Pulitzer (sp?) Winner book titled "Angela’s Ashes" (RM5). Cheap eh? Oh, we also bought this bookabout personalities of guys based on their horoscopes. Really interesting read.

Hurm, what else? Oh yes, I’m currently very addicted with online shopping. This month alone I spent a lot on online shopping. Which explains why Im kinda broke now.  I mostly buy stuff from overseas that I can’t get here. This is all from LYN forumers who conduct sprees so that the shipping costs will be cheaper. This is what I’ve bought as of now:

• Biomedics Contact lenses – RM75 for a box <–this one a bit expensive :( found a cheaper shop now
• White wallet for my sis – RM14
• Sunsilk Hair Mist – RM4 <–I absolutely LOVE this one!
• Elf (www.eyeslipsface.com) cosmetics (13 items) – RM100 + USD17.50 <– Decided to spend some money on my sisters about RM50 each and used my paypal to pay for half
• Bath and Body Works (www.bathandbodyworks.com) Body Splash (3 items) – RM 90
• Victoria Secret Beauty Rush Grapefruit Blast Body Drink Lotion & Double Body Mist – USD 27.90 <–yea paypal again

Whoa, after listing it out then I realized I really did spend a lot of money on shopping. LOL! Thats almost RM400 (or more) there. Okay, enough shopping till the end of the year. At least its way cheaper to pay via paypal then to withdraw it out in RM (this is to pacify myself for spending alot). Haha!

Damn you online shopping!

Opps..time for class. gtg

Birthday Prezzies

Posted by IcedNyior on November 18, 2007  |  No Comments

When November comes around, I’m always stumped on what to buy for my sisters birthdays. So instead of playing the guessing game wondering and hoping that the present I bought will be liked by them, I like to ask instantly what they want.

This year my youngest sister wants a bag. Geez! Do you have any idea how many different types of bags there are? Handbags, clutches, sling bags, graphic bag, tote bags, document bags, and the list goes on and on and on. Not only that, they also range anyway from RM10 to RM200++ for branded bags.
Lucky for me, i stumbled on SaveBuckets.co.uk. All you have to do is type in the product you want and it lists down the prices so that you can compare which one has the best value. After searching for “bags” I found this nice bag (on the left) that would be so adorable for her. It has many pockets for all her stuff and also a earphone outlet for her mp3 player. Plus, maybe I can borrow it to put all my books and laptop. Hehe!

Speaking of mp3 players, my other sister lost her mp3 player the other day and was pretty sad about it. Perhaps it would be nice to give her one for her birthday this year – if I have the money that is.

My love affair with jeans

Posted by IcedNyior on October 23, 2007  |  6 Comments

Have i ever written about how much I love jeans? To me, jeans are an essential part of anyone’s wardrobe. I think I have almost 10 pairs of jeans i think, ranging from light blue to almost-black dark blue to weird colours like white and brown.

Anyway, i found this site that has a whole collection of gorgeous jeans from various companies (some of which I haven’t heard about but they have really fantastic designs & cuttings) like 1921, Diesel, Ag Jeans, Nudie Jeans, Acne Jeans, Seven for All Mankind and lots more.

This is an example of a pair of jeans by Seven for All Mankind for women. Its called “Bootcut Stretch Jeans in New York Dark.” Doesn’t it look hot? I really like the colour of it and it also looks very comfortable.

This is an example of a pair of jeans by Nudie. Very sexy looking and emphasizes the butt. And we like sexy butts don’t we girls? Haha!

However, Tobi is not all about jeans, they have a variety of apparel and beauty products. I saw a whole bunch of earrings that I would so love to buy. But I still really, really like the jeans. What’s really cool about this online boutique is that you can speak to an online stylist and have live chat to help you in your shopping experience.

No more walking around in malls and getting harassed by salespersons. Ah…how convinient

Of papercrafts, Shrek and Body Shop

Posted by IcedNyior on June 5, 2007  |  No Comments

So its been about 2 weeks or so of holidays and I have :

• changed my blog address and template
• set up Pammye’s blog
• went to Sugar and saw a James Blunt lookalike
• joined Persetankan
• Watched POTC3
• Tried to sell my books
• Went to Alexis for the first time to see Shayna Zaid
• Made chocolate chip cookies
• Took a short break for the Gawai Weekend

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I’m back from my weekend break :D and I notice that I’ve missed two Download Fridays (will post that up soon).

I’ve also been busy doing papercrafts (Im a contributor at PaperKraft.net) and these are three models I just finished in this 2+ weeks :D

Pirates of the Carribean Compass – [link]

optimus prime – [link]

The Surveilance Camera from Metal Gear Solid (i really loved that game) by Chamoo – Click [link] for more papercrafts by Chamoo

~~~~~~
Friday Night

Went to lepak at a fren’s place in ampang with Ms Moesha. Was stuck in a bloody jam for almost an hour. Guess where the jam was? On the NKVE highway from Kota Damansara tol to Jalan Duta Tol which is just ONE toll away….and stuck for almost 1 hr padahal that is less than 10 mins usually. :-w

Went to pick up Ms Moesha at Sentul. We some how miscommunicated and she ended up waiting at a different place, lucky not that far away. Poor gal :P anyway we managed to find out way there. Lepak2 and played cards the whole night then at 7am ish went to send Ms Moesha to her frens place, and I went to another fren’s place to sleep. zzzz |-)

~~~~~

Sunday Night
I also went to watch Shrek 3 with Jai at Cineleisure. I was quite dissapointed that CinemaOnline.com gave it such a low review. They were kutuking the fact that the characters had the same kind of humour. Err…they’re the same characters…hello? But i agree that the role of Artie (Justin Timberlake) should have been deeper and given more screentime.

Anyway, I had lots of fun laughing during this movie – and I was probably the only one laughing at the ‘Hooters’ reference in the movie :)) The ending is of course rather predictable (as in most cartoon movies) – and I like how they intergrated other story book charaters like Merlin, Lancelot, Snow White, Cinderella, Rapunzel and Sleeping Beauty. All in all, this is a great movie to watch to make you feel good :D

Rating : 4 out of 5 stars

(no pics coz Jai refused to take pics..saying he looked buruk :|)
~~~~~~~
Today (monday) I went to Bukit Bintang with Zakri to get a present for his gf…yea I had to go and follow him to help him choose what to buy. He shops like a girl! We went to so many shops to survey-survey things and compare prices. If me, I’ll just pick and go. But ituler…dah org tu sayang kat gf dier kan…so must get the best things.

First we went to parkson and bought a nice silver box. Then while walking, we saw Body Shop and noticed they had this huge sale, up to 50% off, so we popped in. And after smelling a hundred scents, he decided to buy the Rougeberry perfume for her. And I also TERbeli 2 bottles of shower gel which smelled heavenly and a small bottle of home fragrance oil which was CHEAP! Only RM37 in total.

Then finally we went to this shop to buy a very nice red and light red selendang for his girl and packed it nicely into the box. Oh yea, he also bought me one orange one because it was “the first time we met face-to-face (I got to know him last year through chatting) and that I helped him pick out the presents.” So sweet!

Nectarine & Plum shower Gel + White Tea Home Fragrance Oil + Orange Selendang

Thanks Zakri :D
~~~~~~~~~~~~
So what did u guys do last weekend and what do you think about Shrek 3?
