2010 diaries

My diary for next year! This sweet book comes with illustrations inside, and no, it's not in bad"taiwanese" English either. It actually has some interesting information on shoes.

The only con is that it doesn't come with dates. I had to invest 20minutes of my life painstakingly filling in the dates for next year. It also has no calendar. Guess I'll have to stick a small one on it so that I can keep track of dates.

This is the other diary I bought for 2011. Haha, hilarious that I'm planning my days so far ahead. Ooh...I must be a 'futurologist'. (In case you're wondering, it actually is a word for some people who are very good at predicting events. Alvin and Heidi Toffler are a couple of them.). Anyway, I liked both very much and couldn't decided (fickle me) so I got both. I especially liked that this Paris book is square.

And it has photos. Sorry the pics are upside down, but I'm feeling too lazy to edit. Just turn your screen the other way ok?

If you wanna get hold of these, they're at Artbox at Bugis Junction. You can't get them anywhere else; they're designed in-house. Cool eh?

Grandchild

Just came across this store at Bugis Junction level 2 while exercising. Exercising? Yeah...my credit card!! I reckon all the walking I do passes off as exercise too...after all, it gets my heart rate up when I discover good buys!

Anyway, I was wondering about the name of this store and it turned out that the owner had a granddad she respected who was a tailor, and was inspired by him. It felt like kinda a queer name to me, but I loved their merchandise. They have quirky stuff like a pen disguised as toothpaste, or one-off nerdy plastic glasses, knick knacks that takes time to figure out, and even a vintage telephone on the counter for customers (that means me!) to use.

The store looks even cuter now, with a green strip of 'grass' at the little black house'. Their clothes are mostly interesting with a relaxed, cool vibe. Some come in one piece only, and are rather individualistic. Some earrings are really uber cute. Check out the store for yourself!

My Chic White Earring Organizer

 

Tadah....my WHITE earrings organizer as promised. See my previous entry for the ugly copper version. After inhaling 3/4 of a can of white spray paint fumes, my labour of love finally bore fruit. Looks like I need more earrings. It looks quite bare. If you're getting one too, just take not it's not wonderful for hoop earrings or stud earrings.
