New Things in my Wardrobe
1:48:00 AMAs in right now, I'm having two giveaways on my other blog "Tigerlily's Book", please feel free to visit and participate in the giveaways because both are open for worldwide :D
Okay so anyway, I started a new blog post series a while back, it's called "New Things in my Wardrobe". It's about sharing and documenting new items that I got on my wardrobe, it could be stuffs that were given to me, complimentary stuff that worth to mention or just simply new things that I bought. And it could be a clothing item, accessories such as bags, shoes, jewelries, or makeup, etc.. you get the idea..
And so here's what I accumulate from this past several weeks:
Did you remember I once posted about two giveaways that I won. One of them is this gorgeous earrings from katrinshine.etsy.com that I won via Heavenly Saying blog. This earring was shipped all the way from Italy!

I did a little bit shopping a while ago and bought these cute two colorful socks! I love wearing socks when sleeping and lately I found out that my socks were terribly worn due to the excessive wear, I slept in it almost everyday so no wonder they gave up on me. But that means it's time for socks shopping ;P
I also bought this peach floral blouse, maxi dress and brown tanktop at the same time i bought the socks:
I bought them all at Poins Square and they all are not really expensive. I love to hunt for treasures such as these pretty clothes among the cheap mass-produced clothes on the little lots and stalls in places like ITC or Poins. You'll never know what you will find there. I got the peach floral blouse for IDR 70.000, the maxi dress for IDR 100.000 and the brown tanktop for only IDR 20.000. (for comparison: 1 USD = around IDR 10.000).

I have been using Gisella pressed powder which I got for review a couple of months back. I did get great result with it but I needed a powder-y mineral foundation to perfect my look. So I browsed around and found this great deal at Strawberry.net , I couldn't believe I just found out about strawberry.net! They have almost all of my favorite makeup and beauty brands with discount price! And they ship worldwide too! For Free! Yeah baby, I'm speaking the real thing here. It's great for you who lives in a country where it's hard to get popular brands that were not sold in your country. And the free shipping doesn't hurt either, it might be their best marketing tools I say :D
Anyway, I bought this L'oreal Bare Naturale Flawless Starter Kit in Soft Ivory. The kit comes with mineral powder, mineral blush and mineral finish. I got a 42% discount on it and for that price comes 3 bottle of makeup -> who can resist that? I clicked "order" right away! :P

If you're my loyal reader then you must have read here that sometimes I always got something new out of my mother in law's house. She is a true shopaholic like Becky Bloomwood from the Shopaholics series. She buy things but then she sometimes forget about it and she would buy it all over again, only to discover later on that she already has it. But that means it's my victory :) As luck would have it, she will find random things at her house that she no longer needs, or left-out items that she don't wanna wear anymore, or things that she already has too many in similar color or types or patterns. And then she would offer me those things, whether i wanna keep it or not. And most of the time, I said "yes, of course!" :D
I did got a couple of bags from her and some accessories too, and now she found an un-used little box of BCBGirls perfumes sample that (yes, you guessed it) now it's mine :) The little box came with 4 vials of Nature, Star, Metro and Sexy. And it comes in the most cutest little box with handle that I can just slip on my bag :)
When she knows that I like collecting mini perfume samples she gave another two vials to me the next day. She found another two perfume samples which are J'adore Dior and Miss Dior Cherie (I like J'adore better than Miss Dior).

Around three weeks ago, right around my Birthday which is on August 16, both me and my hubby got sick. We were staying over the weekend at my MIL's house and then we got sick so we couldn't leave her house. Since I didn't bring much there so I borrowed a pashmina from her to keep me warm because I was having fever. She lend me this pink pashmina which I secretly love :p And again, as luck would have it, after I got better and wants to return her the pashmina she said that I can have it because she never wear it anyway. Is she like the best MIL or what? She is so generous I couldn't thank her enough.
And now the pashmina is mine. I never had a pink pashmina before and I love my new pink pashmina ^__^

Speaking of my birthday, my Sister in law gave me this pink asymmetrical jersey blouse as a birthday gift! As I mentioned before, both me and my hubby were sick in bed during my Bday so we didn't get a chance to celebrate it or let alone shop for my gifts (lol). But this surprise gift from my SIL really made my day :D
I just realized that I don't own a pink top in my wardrobe, how can that be?? Pink is one of my favorite color but how come I didn't even own a pink blouse? I only own several pink tees but tshirts doesnt count since I mostly only wear them in the house. So anyway, thank you Mirna for this lovely pink blouse!
