Advertorial - LOM

Hi readers,
i really have lots and lots of delayed posts i've yet to share with you due to my studies.
But i REALLY promised you that i will try my VERY BEST to post all ASAP(:

First, here's something to share with you guys on a very Brand New Online Blogshop who is hitting the market making their first debut this week.
Presenting
*Drum Rollls*


Look of the Moment

LOM is very special blogshpop.
They work in an unique and different way of mendering their portal, as compared to other blogshops.
That's because they've come up with a "New Shopping Concept".
That is:
    Releasing/Selling an item at a time. And will only release new item once a week or when the item has sold out.

Arent they thoughtful of coming up with this idea ??
Furhtermore, all items that they'rere selling/about to sell are hand picked by them, if they don't like it, you won't even get to see them in their blogshop!
Therefore, you can reallt 100% trust them with the design.

My opinion on their shopping concept:
    Rather rare and exclusive idea. Right now, we dont have to worry about choosing what to buy. Also, it helps to control and keep within our spending budget and time in choosing which outfit to purchase on when you're always spoilt for choices and indecisive on which to buy.


Here's they're design-of-the-week:

Double-wear colorful striped oversized top
A versatile piece, tie it up for the cropped look at the beach or just tuck it in for casual outings.
Definitely a PREFECT for Singapore's current weather.
Fret not, the material is light-weighted and, made out of Chiffon and slightly sheer as well.
Its free size so it definitely suits all without having to take out a measuring tape and measure yourself with the measurement provided. (So troublesome!)

Hey readers,
that's not the end of my post.
They have FABULOUS DEALS exclusively for MY readers(x (isnt it sweet.)
All you have to do is to quote 'beurself-ahqi' to be entitled to free normal postage.


I have done my part, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR??

Start shopping at LOM NOW!!!

Cheers;

Disney • Pixar’s BRAVE

Have you ever encountered a Brave Girl who will fight for her freedom and cherish her moments w/o fear, obstacles and reject.

While, i have met one.
She's:

  • Adventurous

  • YET
  • Kind
  • and
  • Sweet


  • *I wont disclosed her name or else she may complain xP

    I met her during my 1st day of Sec1 life.
    I remembered i dont dare to speak up and befriend with my class.
    But, out of the moon, there's was this lovely girl, soft straight hair flying off from her forehead down to her face, walking briskly towards my direction.

    'Hi, im ***. How do i address you ??' - a lovely yet rough voice came from the back of my ear and i turned to look at who would be so nice to approach me when others dont ??!!

    She reached out her hand and offered a handshake while i reluctantly reached out mine and she hold on to my hand with a smile on her face.
    'Hi, why arent you talking?? Have i startled you??' - posing with an awkward yet puzzled smile.
    'Hi, im minghui. Nice to meet you.'
    'Nice to meet you too.' - with a sweet smile.

    And that's how i got to know her.
    We started to become sisters w/o us realising it and we would mingle and gossip around during out freetime.

    One day, something happened during class and everyone started gossiping around.
    I joined in the conversation with her and she told me there's a bully in school targeting at girls who're easy prey.
    She warned me to stay away from this gang when i saw them in school.
    But, never did i've guessed it, that day arrived.
    I've became their prey.
    They laughed at me, saying bad things about me, making me feeling helpless and menacing not knowing what to do when suddenly someone shouted out,
    'Here, Miss Lim. There they are, bullying people again.'
    The gang hurriedly off leaving poor little behind.
    I slowly opened my eyes and saw her, standing right in front of me reaching out her hand to give me a lift.
    I was so touched and tears started flowing down from my eyes and she hugged me, giving me a sense of security and warmth like i've never felt it.

    She told me next time better stayed close to her or else i might not know when will i get preyed at again.
    I asked her, 'Where is Miss Lim, how come she isnt here yet??'
    She told me that i was a lie to fool the gang so that they will stop their actions and saved me out from them.
    She even told me one of our classmate saw the incident and ran to look for her, thinking that she might have a plan to save me.
    She even claimed that she was afraid of them, too, but thinking of the fact that i was being preyed, without hesitation, she came to my recuse.


    Till today, even though we are uncontactable but i felt very thankful to what she did on that day.
    It was truly the most memorable incident i've ever had in my secondary days and will be kept in my heart forever.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    So readers,
    after reading through my story are you inspired to write one too ??!!
    Here's your chance to write/blog about it to win a pair of tickets to catch Disney • Pixar’s BRAVE coming to cinemas on the 8th of August.

    Not sure what is BRAVE, the movie about ??
    Here's a synopsis on the movie:
      "Since ancient times, stories of epic battles and mystical legends have been passed through the generations across the rugged and mysterious Highlands of Scotland. In “Brave,” a new tale joins the lore when the courageous Merida (voice of Kelly Macdonald) confronts tradition, destiny and the fiercest of beasts. Merida is a skilled archer and impetuous daughter of King Fergus (voice of Billy Connolly) and Queen Elinor (voice of Emma Thompson).

      Determined to carve her own path in life, Merida defies an age-old custom sacred to the uproarious lords of the land: massive Lord MacGuffin (voice of Kevin McKidd), surly Lord Macintosh (voice of Craig Ferguson) and cantankerous Lord Dingwall (voice of Robbie Coltrane). Merida’s actions inadvertently unleash chaos and fury in the kingdom, and when she turns to an eccentric old Wise Woman (voice of Julie Walters) for help, she is granted an ill-fated wish. The ensuing peril forces Merida to discover the meaning of true bravery in order to undo a beastly curse before it’s too late.

      Directed by Mark Andrews (“The Incredibles,” “Ratatouille,” “John Carter of Mars”) and Brenda Chapman (“The Lion King,” “Prince of Egypt”), and produced by Katherine Sarafian (“Lifted,” “The Incredibles”), “Brave” is a grand adventure full of heart, memorable characters and the signature Pixar humor enjoyed by audiences of all ages. The film opens in Singapore theaters on 8 August 2012, and will be presented in Disney Digital 3D™ in select theaters."

    Sponsored review - CleoCat Wholesale Fashion

    Hi readers,
    today im gonna share with you a rather prominent blogshop called CleoCat Wholesale Fashion.

    This is the first time i've ever heard of CleoCat, when i visited their blogshops,
    my jaw almost dropped off to the ground.
    Reason being, the WIDE SPREAD of clothings they offer.


    From basic tops to winter wear, from earrings to pouches.


    Here's a little background info about CleoCat:
      "Cleocat-fashion is the leading online fashion store in providing low-priced mass market wholesale fashion clothing in Singapore, Malaysia, Brunei and Indonesia.

      Our business was founded in late 2007 and with reliable sources for wholesale fashion merchandise in Hong Kong, China, Korea, we continue to grow our business presence in South East Asia. In 2010, we created our first in-house brand December-shop to further provide our online fashion clientale with an alternative choice of online fashion clothing."



    See the little red box ??!!
    That's a key point which im impressed about them
    Here's what it reads: (cause i know you guys cant see it due to the size)
      "Looking for wholesale fashion clothes at cheap prices? Cleocat-Fashion is a Singapore-based online fashion clothes wholesaler and women fashion store dealing in inspired wholesale Korean fashion, women fashion and ladies fashion clothes and wholesale apparel
      - For resellers, we offer a one-stop wholesale fashion selling solution ranging from dropship to reseller flash catalogue tools absolutely free!

      No minimum purchase quantity at our online fashion website! Orders with less than 15 pcs online clothes will be considered retail purchases and their prices will be adjusted accordingly.

      1. 1-3 items - wholesale price x 1.8
      2. 4-6 items - wholesale price x 1.65
      3. 7-10 items - wholesale price x 1.45
      4. 11-14 items - wholesale price x 1.25"


    They are such thoughtful retailer as they have it in malay to cater to the Malaysians and Indonesian(:
      "Sedang mencari baju grosir dan pakaian grosir murah?
      Cleocat-Fashion ialah online fashion store pertama bagi korean fashion baju grosir, pakaian grosir, pakaian women fashion dan wholesale clothing di Singapore, Malaysia dan Indonesia."


    They have a different website for Malaysia (click on the image)


    For the next 'introduction', i'll be telling 3key points which is 100% UNIQUE & DIFFERENT from other blogshops, i dont really see these features on anyof the local prestigious blogshops too(for now which i have came across)

  • 1. DropShip

  • "As resellers/blogshop owners, do you often face angry customer emails when the clothes they ordered takes more than 1 month to deliver? Or worse, your overseas suppliers inform you that the dress your customer ordered is out of stock now. How do you explain to your customer? She then questions you why it took you so long to inform them when the fault really lies with your suppliers. This is usually a problem with sourcing from overseas. We have gathered this feedback from our resellers.

    OR do you find that you can't meet our 15pcs requirements in one order ? You see only 3 favourite items in our website but do not have other items you want right now, yet you are not willing to pay retail prices, wholesale prices are too appealing... " - as stated by CleoCat

    Its really very troublesome whenever you came across a wholesale blogshop and you will be scratching head trying to hit the minimum quota or just say 'bye bye' to the blogshop.

    As for this DropShip feature,
    what it really does is stated as follows.


    Here are some of the common questions they've encountered:


  • 2. Calcultor for postage

  • This is the BEST feature i've ever encountered
    as you dont have to crack your head, taking out a piece of paper and a pen writing down and calculating away.
    With this shopping-friendly feature, it really saves all the above 'method' times.

    Select your country


    Select how many pieces you have/would like to order


    TA-DAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Calcualted out nicely for you(;

  • 3. Sizing

  • Have you ever encountered any problems when choosing the clothing you like and once you click on it to check for the available sizing, turns out it doesnt have your size ??!!

    While, for them, they have a feature which can be sort by the sizes


    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Seriosuly speaking i really had a hard time choosing
    when you're definitely spoilt with choices.
    In the end, i got myself the Relax Long Tunic in Beige which comes together with a pvc leather sash.
    It comes in navy as well

    (click on the image to know the full detail)
    What's more, this tunic comes in L and XL.
    So ladies, dont be discourage to wear this tunic if you're of a bigger size.

    I really like how the tunic looks on me,
    even though some may have a bigger frame on the upper-body
    but this tunic works wonders by camouflaging and conceals off.
    I do like the material, chiffon - unlined but not sheer, as well as it feels light-weight and carefree which is my major point when im sourcing for clothes, nowadays.

    When i was browsing the web i came across this Chiffon Top


    Which looks exactly the same as the one i got from Bugis Street


    &what i really hate about myself is that they sell at a much cheaper price):

      "So ladies or girls, next time if you find any piece while shopping in Bugis Street,
      do check out their online shop cause you will never know how much you'd have saved by purchasing from them, CleoCat Fashion."


    Before i end my post,
    i'd like to share with you a video from Budget Barbie hosted by QiuTing,
    who is also known as QiuQiu.
    She did an episode on online blogshops and she chose CleoCat as one of her shopping portal(;

    You can skip to 5:30 which QiuQiu introduces CleoCat.
    (Click on the image to watch the video)

      Ladies and girls, start shopping away with CleoCat Fashion as they really sell at a SUPER affordable price♥♥♥♥

    Updates for the month of June

    This is just a random updates on what i did during the month of June.
    Besides locking myself inside my room,
    doing projects and assignments,
    i had a few enjoyable moments with my family and friend♥♥♥



    Last day of May:
    Thanks to Seveenteen and United International Pictures,
    im very happy to catch the premiere of Snow White and the Huntsman.

    *Opps :x
    im not supposed to snap



    Verdict:
    It's a very nice movie and i can say that this is a very different plot verses the original fairy tale ending.
    Instead of having both the prince and princess living happily ever after,
    Snow White and the Huntsman have a different ending.
    Snow White got back her dad's land and was named the Queen of her country.
    But, the movie didnt show who she ended uo with; not her childhood lover nor the huntsman.
    The Director, Rupert Sanders, gave Kristen Stewart a challenge;
    he filmed the other side of Kristen Stewart.
    Instead of the fallen-in-love and daring Bella Swan, she has to show her courageous side of Snow White.

    I thought that Snow White was a polite and well-mannered girl which we wont think that she would actually have another side of her.
    A strong, courageous girl who holds a mission to save her dad's land from the evil Queen/Step-mother of hers.



    Last week of June;
    One of my friend recommended a brand new bubble tea called ChaTime.
    It's original from Taiwan and they imported pure Green Tea from Taiwan, too.

    Introduction:
    “好茶”,就是要把每种不一样「茶」的风格,完全表现出来,我们寻觅台湾最优等的高山好茶,结合在地果农,依茶叶的不同特性,搭配产地直送的新鲜水果,赋予好茶新风貌,淬炼茶汤的甘甜,享尽台湾水果的迷人芬芳,让您客观地品尝茶香与果香。

    日出茶太重视每一杯茶的质量,注意每一个影响口感的细节,单纯地想把茶汤最原始的「甘、纯、顺口」的美好风味完整呈现,为无味的生活,注入一份新鲜甘甜;让疲惫的心,增添一丝的茗闲,享受专属于您的好茶好时光。

    Last Wednesday, i went to its outlet at AMK Jubilee
    Once you stepped in to the store,
    you'll be welcomed with the aroma of pure green tea.


    You can played Monopoly or other card games while you're enjoying your cup of tea(;




    ChaTime's Recommendations of drink.


    The list of drinks that provide.


    The drink that i got myself is Brown Rice Green Milk Tea.
    It tastes heavenly and affordable too

    Do you know why??
    Currently there are having promotion for ALL students including NYPians
    Yes, INCLUDING NYPIANS(;


    All you have to do is to flash your student card/admin card to enjoy the promotion(x

    Very tempted to get a drink RIGHT NOW??
    Here's their amk outlet


    Their HQ is located at #01-07 Novena Square
    You can check out their individual FB page:
    ChaTime Novena Square
    ChaTime AMK



    Lastly,
    i also went to try out Mcd's latest Fraqque in Caramel


    Verdict:
    SUPER SWEET
    Not sure if it's because of my tastebud for that day or something
    but, seriously, their fraqque is too sweet for me to handle.

    I know it sounds crazy but after i finished the drink,
    i gulped down a 500ml of plain water, straight away.

    No offense to Mcd but this is just my point of view.



    On Father's Day,
    my entire family went to Changi's T2 Swensens to celebrate this occasion.
    My second sister and i treated my dad and while waiting for our food,
    we took pictures to remember this special day(;


    My cheeky brother and my mum


    One of my phone's app from Android
    Fisheye function


    A family of 3

    Sadly we didn managed to take a family picture cause both of my sisters dont wanna took pictures together so instead of a family of 6, on that night its a family of 4





    That's all i had for the month of June
    Today is the first day of July,
    i wished everyone to have an enjoyable month and have lots of surprises coming up for you♥♥♥
