Silk Naturals’ Neighborhood

saw this vid and thought of your two kitties haha!

As you know, I have just about everything.

 I'm making this list:

*ETA: As you can see, I own almost everything. If you are looking for a similar color to a discontinued or LE color, I can probably help- just ask and i will look.

1) for my own personal reference when buying (Do I have that...?)

2)I am generally pretty nice about sharing. If I get duplicates or samples of what i already have, i usually give it away. I've also been known (on rare occasion) to give a lucky person or two the option of sampling from my extensive stash. I don't want a flood of requests coming in, but when people ask for a sample of one thing, i usually ask if there's anything else they'd like to try and i'd like for them to be able to refer here.

3)I'm adding a list of what I DON'T have so that if someone else has it and didn't love it, it might lovingly find a home with me.

HE COMES, HE SEES, HE SHOPS and SHOPS and SHOPS Formula One stars spend $50,000 in whirlwind shopping spree By Joyce Lim September 26, 2009

SOMEBODY must have told them that Singapore is a shopping paradise. If not, some of the top drivers in Formula One drivers would not have gone on a major retail therapy just days before the SingTel Singapore Grand Prix. De-stress? Perhaps. But the way these drivers stormed into the store and simply swept the merchandise off the shelves was a sight to behold. Over the past three days, the Puma store at Marina Square was probably the most popular haunt among the F1 drivers. It was visited by Sebastian Vettel, Fernando Alonso, Giancarlo Fisichella, Sebastien Buemi, Jaime Alguersuari, David Coulthard, Lucas DiGrassi, Romain Grosjean, Robert Kubica and Christian Klien. Each of them - all Puma-sponsored - spent less than an hour in the store. But by the time they left, the shelves would be half-empty, said store manager Razali Osman, 35. And the final damage? A whooping $50,000 worth of products. Not just for themselves, mind you, but for their friends and loved ones as well. Razali said: 'These drivers came with their friends who also took some stuff, but on the drivers' accounts of course.' One big spender is Vettel. At 3pm yesterday, the Red Bull driver visited the store and grabbed more than $12,000 worth of merchandise from the lastest collection. Retail assistant Muhammad Hilmi, 19, said: 'There were only a few customers in the store at that time. But some of these customers recognised Vettel and approached him for autographs and took photos with him. 'He was very friendly and obliged to everyone's requests.' Hilmi who attended to most of the drivers at the store, felt that Vettel was the friendliest among the group. He said: 'Vettel was very polite. Not fussy. He was always smiling and would always say 'thank you and please'.' Shopping cart So what were in Vettel's shopping cart? Well - take a deep breath - five pairs of the shoes, prices ranging from over $100 to $300; four Rudolf Dassler's jackets which are priced over $600 each; and a $600 Mihara shirt - among others. Hilmi said: 'He took a few items from every collection. And the same stuff from the ladies' collection. He said those were for his girlfriend, Hanna Prater.' Lucky girl. And Vettel appeared to like his purchases very much. When The New Paper team spotted him at the Red Bull Racing pit at about 6pm yesterday, he was already wearing the Cabana Racer II shoes from Puma Archive collection, which he had picked up earlier in the store. Another star driver who left a deep impression with the Puma sales staff is Alonso from Renault. Speed is indeed in the Spaniard's blood. Just like how he drove his F1 car, Alonso came into the store, made a few deft turns around the aisles, pit-stopped at the shoe section, and before anyone knew it, he was out of the place with over $12,000 worth of merchandise. Razali recalled: 'Alonso came with a young, attractive woman and a man. 'They headed straight to their sections and didn't have to think twice about what they want. 'There were about 20 shirts hanging on a rack, and Alonso took about half of them without even batting an eyelid. 'He went for the Rudolf Dassler, our high-end range and Puma Archive. He also took two Usain Bolt jackets. 'His friend took a lot of Ferrari stuff, though.' Ferrari stuff? Hmmm...we wonder why. Maybe Alonso's buddy knows something we don't.

Disclaimer: I really haven't read the little ditty on blogging regulations, but here is my disclaimer: I generally purchase all of my makeup and am not mailed packages of free goodies. I have occasionally received little surprises in my orders- an experience many Silk Naturals customers share as well as the GWP promotions on their homepage. On the rare occasion that Silk Naturals calls for testers, i jump up and down and wave my hand wildly in the air to participate. I also participate in most of the contests. The above colors "I Do!" and "Cinderella" are the wedding gift lippies mentioned in the intro spiel.  

My relationship with Silk Naturals: I have been buying and wearing Silk Naturals for around 3 years. I review it because I know how important reviews are in online shopping, and- after 3 years of stockpiling- i own almost everything they make. SN does not now, nor have they ever, paid me for any reason. They have never asked me to write a review nor have they ever asked me to take photos of anything. I do it because i love it. My swatches are helpful to others and act a bit like a closet for me in the "what to wear today" sense.

She's my new fave!

thank you all for your sweet comments about ashley and stuff!

i haven been replying not bcos i dont appreciate, i really do in fact :) just that i have been so buzzed up in life that i rarely have time to come on vox via computer anymore. have been sending posts or photos through my e71, and e71 is not good at all with reply comments, cos it just cant click reply to the person =/ and typing is a chore LOL!

ashley's been home for a month now! time flies! and suddenly, she's big and pretty, looking like her daddy but cool girl like her mummy =D

she will be going for her first show on 6th September, not thinking of bringing any trophy back, just hope she enjoy the experience :)  her big sister nania from the same kennel is a great beauty, and a fiesty princess. but somehow she refused to gait in the last show under a handler that she wasnt familiar with. hope amos and i can learn to handle her for show properly, so at least she wont be nervous in the ring :)

here's her k9data page, u can get to links of her parents and grandparents too!

i'll probably start a facebook or vox of ashley soon, so i can just conveniently chuck photos of notes of her in there via my phone every now and then. will send a heads up note here when its up!

ps: haven seen all the updates, but see that inan, dayna, littleredhen, meowshirl, mmichellee, facefab...... are all looking great!!

here's a pic of ashley and i bathing outdoors at the sentosa last weekend (beach). love how magical the shower droplets at the back looks like a magical blind  x)

I am making my wedding dress but I've been a bit of a procrastinator. It's a champagne colored silk shantung bodice with a white tulle overlay embroidered in silver and gold thread with white and silver flowers and a handkerchief skirt of champagne silk shantung, cream colored crinkle chiffon, and more embroidered tulle. I'm debating boning-i have a boned corset for underneath but it's not photographing as smooth as i would like. I think I'm going to press the hell out of it, take some more pictures and then decide.
