Credit Card sir?

Was reading Timothy Tiah's blog about this credit card prank that Audrey enjoys pulling on him. The boyfriend was behind me, watching The Wizard of Oz. I turned to him and looked at him. He knew I was up to no good. I read the blog post to him. And then come the million dollar question.

"Credit Card sir?"
"Don't be crazy, you are always out to pull pranks on me"
"What pranks?"
"You are always looking for chances to tickle me on my armpit. Each time I lift my hands up, you will attack. Or you will trick me to lift them up and attack."
"But they are always calling out to me, asking me to go to them. *wave hands above head* Come, Ping Ping, come."
"Nonsense."
*stare at his armpit* *attack*
"See, they are calling."

I don't do the credit card prank but I do always find EVERY available opportunity to tickle the boyfriend cause he is super ticklish like that.

Hiatus

It's funny how when I was rushing for my dissertation, I would blog like 2-3 times a day and right after I submit, I stopped blogging. I know I have promised to show the clothes I bought but I cleverly packed everything and brought home before I could snap any pictures. So will wear them during CNY and dolled up and then ask my sisters to snap for me.

Right after I submit my dissertation, I went home to clean my room. Reorganize everything since we had little renovation going on and changed some furniture. Then I went to SP to the boyfriend's place and 'nua' around for few days.

When we got back, we rushed to launch D'Sparkles collections and baking frenzy began. Baked German cookies and pineapple tarts. On top of that, I basically did nothing much. I did not go shopping cause my bank account was drying up. This entire week was dedicated to selling fruits in the market. 2nd year helping Daniel's aunt to sell fruits. Chinese New Year's crowd is MAD. There's so many people asking for prices, passing you their basket of fruits to weigh, pack and calculate. Some will just ask how much, or if it's good, and then complain this and that and want discounts.

Then there's sorting out the rotten fruits from the good ones and repacking them to sell and sweeping the floor. And lots of calculating. My mathematics has been put to rest for YEARS so it was really a challenge for me. Every day when we got back, we would be lying on the bed, dead exhausted. And we will take like 2 hour nap (we got up at 6.30am or latest 7am every day. Except on Thursday we overslept till 7.45am. By the time we are up it'll already be like 4pm or 5pm and soon we'll have dinner and then slack the night away or hang out with friends.

So this week has been crazy!!! I've not much going on for CNY (for now) so I expect lots of resting and checking on D'Sparkles stocks before I come back next week to prepare for my viva. Will claim this rest first before I even think about my viva.

CNY Clothes Shopping For Plus Sized

Shopping can be hard for plus size women. I myself has gradually moved back to the state where it's quite hard to get nice clothes from the mall. I vow to get it back down soonest okay? But I still enjoy my fair bit of shopping with some shops and also online shopping sites. I've tried a few shops and the quality is great and the price is reasonable so I'm gonna share here.

My CNY shopping haul. Hope you find it useful and can get some CNY clothes yourself. =)


Aishop sells good quality clothes that looks nice even on plus sized girls. At first I find the price a little steep for me since I'm not working so I chose only one dress and one pants and bought two lace camisoles for my sister. But when I received the items, THE QUALITY IS SO GOOD!!! I pay for RM70-80 I expect a quality that is worth that price. And they are!!

Cucucamber's stuff sold off QUICK. But now that she produces her own brand, she has more stocks in hand. Her price can be rather steep at times (again because I'm an unemployed student) but I've bought some clothes at RM30-ish from her and the quality is AWESOME! So good that I'm always seen wearing those few dresses. I love her coloured jeggings which are SUPER comfortable and she has lots of sizes, sizes up to 5xl. So you don't have to worry not be able to get the size you need.

Jessabella's clothes are a mix of I-HAVE-TO-HAVE-IT and NAH-NOT-GONNA-BE-SEEN-WEARING-IT. I think she has a very wide range of items and her quality is commendable. Not always top notch but rarely disappoints. Her price is also between a GOOD-BUY and a OK-BUY range.

Tesco. YES, you heard me right. Tesco. Tesco has been my go-to place to shop for clothes because honestly, there are some good finds there (especially plain singlets or tops). And they are not like RM5 cheap okay? There are dresses that can easily cost RM59. Of course there's a possibility that you may wear the same clothes as MANY other people who frequent Tesco. =)

FOS may not have the cheapest clothes (despite being rejected branded items =P) but you can sometimes find nice clothes there. Only if you can pay for the nice price tag as well. But I think RM50 for a decent dress is reasonable.


For those who love branded stuff, try Esprit. I am a size 14-16 and I could fit some of their tops and they are super comfy. But I'm again unemployed so I didn't get any from the shop. I cannot imagine asking my sister to pay RM60 for a t-shirt for me or RM200 for a blouse. But do it's extremely comfy that you'll just unconciously smile when you are wearing it. Serious! Check them out this CNY season as they have quite nice ones with nice price tag.

Shoes:-
 Payless (1st Avenue)
I have huge feet. Size 8.5. Used to think that I'm size 8 but I think I've increased by 0.5. But no worries, if you are from Penang, drop by Payless at 1st Avenue. They display ALL their shoes of ALL sizes so there's no need to feel embarrassed to tell the salesman or saleslady you need a size 8.5. You can try as many shoes as you like and just put them back after that. The price is towards the higher end (about RM50-RM100) but for someone who cannot find shoes elsewhere, it's a great place to look for nice heels.

Brands Outlet
You can get clothes and shoes from Brands Outlet as well although the clothes is maximum size 14-16 depending on the cutting. I can fit some of their XL clothes. Shoes again are on display with all the sizes so go and try them on! Price is okay-ish which is about RM70 for two or RM80 for two. However, the shoes are not of EXCELLENT quality so bear in mind to get shoes that may spoil easily. And comfortable level is slightly lower as well.

Padini sells shoes of bigger size as well and there's always this discount cart with shoes as low as RM15. However, the comfort level is not very high. So do bear in mind that you may get shoes that hurt your feet. =P


Okay, enough of talking. Next up will be pictures of me in all my purchases and also the shops I bought them from!!!

With all these shops for plus size women, do look hard for good buys. Do not settle for the one that you can fit. Cause more often than not, it'll end up in the Give-Away basket when the following spring cleaning comes. Been there, DONE A LOT of that.

I might be going to Dorothy Perkins to look for a pair of jeans. Will blog about it if I get anything from there. No point telling you how good these things are if I don't try it myself.


ps: I WAS NOT PAID FOR ANY OF THESE OKAY? In fact I had to pay for them myself. (With postage some more, see, no free gift also. =P Ok la, in Aishop postage is free if you buy above RM150 heee)

Kenny and Nude Wedges


Kenny Rogers Roaster was having this Red Day and the boyfriend and I decided to go there for our dinner since it' buy one free one. He has had a tough day in studio so a good pick me up dinner will be great for him. So we drove down to 1st Avenue to get ours. We assume the one in Queensbay will have long queue with USM students and whatnot.

When we reached, there's quite some people in front of us but they are all in big groups. So the guy told us that we can go in first cause there's table for two. YAY! So don't go in big groups. =P Just kidding. We are #foreveralone that's why we rarely go dinner with friends.

I did not take picture of the food but the boyfriend did. Will get the picture from him tomorrow morning. But I have two pictures of us sipping our drink (can't even remember the name) and wearing all red. Love it.



After a satisfying meal, we walked around at 1st Avenue. I actually wanted to go there to shop a bit for CNY as well. But the day before I got myself two tops from Brands Outlet so no more clothes this time around. I went to Payless (which I love going cause all sizes are on display and they have sizes for huge feet like mine). I tried on some heels but couldn't bare the pain so I went looking for wedges instead.


Scored this nude wedges at RM89. I know it's not exactly cheap (for me) but I don't buy many shoes. I probably buy like one a year or the most 2 last year and I still have them for CNY since I did not wear them for Christmas. I have huge feet and I only wear my mum's shoes. =P She buys, I wear. I can never shop for my own shoes cause ALL HURTS. Especially heels/higher shoes. To date, I have only 2 high heels which are really mine. And this is the third. Love the buckle cause it's huge enough. I usually don't buy shoes with buckle cause it's such a hassle to put them on. But I'm loving these.


Many people likes it and comments that it's nice. So yay to me!! The boyfriend paid RM50 for it though. I've been spending wayyyy too much. NEED.TO.STOP. Online shops stop putting up nice clothes!!!!!


ps: I need a part time job. You may sponsor me plus size clothings or other products too!!! I don't mind. I really don't! Until of course I lose weight and stop being plus size.

pps: My complexion is going downhill now. If you want to show super huge effect, I can lend my face. Provided you got super good products la!!
