Redmart x Lazada

I ordered everything from Redmart x Lazada, there is free delivery and $12 discounts on first few orders. Choosing a delivery slot is supposed to be free but you have to pay premiums or have several items missing. The final amount was almost $50 over what I initially thought I was paying.

Sashimi grade salmon, that is the description given on the website. I bought these Hellmann salad dressings for it and the offer was buy 2 get 1 free, but the 3 items got split into two bills and I ended up paying full price on all 3 bottles. Frozen chopped dill, I was afraid the fresh version wouldn't survive and dried is always not as good. 

I also bought sausage meat, candy cheese, plain flour. The candy cheese is used in making cheese balls in Korean pizza or wings takeaway, its crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, cannot find the korean flour they use but here are the cheese fillings.

So all this is just one meal, minestrone soup from The Cellar Door, marinated boneless chicken in smoky bbq & cajun with artisan farfalle pasta, UFC watermelon juice. Pasta cooking cream, shredded cheese mix, sliced avocados & sweet corn kernels, I assume my fridge already has the other ingredients. For dessert there is my favorite Wall's Solero Ice Cream Sticks & mango-tamarind candy.

These desserts are too nicely packaged to be eaten and will be given away. Gin Thye Rabbit Rolls, its regular swiss sponge cake roll with cream but the rabbit brand milk candy packaging is soo vintage-cool. Merlion salted egg cookies, pack of 4! I thought I only bought 1 pack. All the merlion tea is also on clearance, I didn't get any coz I prefer boba milk tea these days.

Lovisa.sg

This is an accessories brand with an online shop in Singapore. I found out the Island Shop no longer carries accessories so I tried out Lovisa to see if I can get some resort or tribal stuff. Be careful coz GST is charged after checkout. First-timers get 20% discount.

This order was mostly sale items, but I did get 2 necklaces @ full price. It's this wood raffia necklace and this silver-looking plastic necklace. 

These are all sale items, leopard print natural wood disc necklace, raffia bangle, antiqued statement necklace in not Rastafarian colours as there is no green, tortoise shell chain necklace I have never seen or owned real tortoise shell before.

5 items for $15. Antique lion button earrings, looks like buttons from an old tailoring shop. Kid's enamel earrings that look like lemons. CZ lace ring and two gold-looking rings in bee & moon, I love the gold-ish rings that look like signet rings.

The CZ doesn't stop there, I bought 3 CZ statement necklaces in scarf, cascading waterfall and butterflies. Then there are these 2 statement cuff bracelets in black CZ, its sold in white CZ but not sure where I would wear that too.

Lovisa has hair accessories as well, black spiral hair ties for everyday use and one blue-purple hair comb in rose-tone. I bought this rose-tone dreamcatcher statement necklace, I used to have a black one that broke. This pearl cameo brooch is only $5! Pearl Face earrings that I saw on Zalora.sg.

I put together 8 looks from all the accessories. The first one is the Italian style face earrings with tortoise shell necklace and bee signet ring. Everything here is very lightweight (plastic) and trendy, I can probably find that same necklace in Michael Kors. I like that the ring is non-adjustable size, like a proper ring.

Look #2 is this statement necklace that looks like Van Cleef & Arpels Bouton D'or collection. The goldtone on the edges is scrapped off and some of the yellow beads are missing, considering how meticulously packed in between bubble wrap this came in, I cannot imagine how it happened. Paired with antique button lion earrings and moon signet ring.

I have a blue & pink corporate wear outfit that I was looking for a hat or something to complete. Then I found this rose-tone hair comb in dusty blue that is perfect. Matching dreamcatcher statement necklace with irridescent crystals, I wasn't planning on wearing a statement necklace but this is good.

There are some black crystals on the tribal silver-looking necklace that would go nicely with a pair of black crystal bangles. 1 or 2 ovals on the necklace are wiped clean of blackened highlights, dunno how to add it back in, hoping its not obvious.

The lemon stud earrings go with the raffia bangle and raffia necklace. I am happy with the look it creates but does it also look like table mats? Also will it get mouldy? It's actually very difficult to get resort style accessories.

CZ scarf with leopard print wood necklace. Think the scarf will be worn as a belt instead, still need something to secure it down with.

2 remaining CZ necklaces with ring & brooch. The butterfly necklace is a little smaller than expected and lies completely flat against the skin like a crystal tattoo. The elongated necklace is half CZ & half beads asymmetrically joined together, not what I expected. However, it does look like the Gold Souk necklaces of the same kind, only in white crystals instead of gold.

Pandora.sg

I was initially at TrollBeads.sg coz there are sales and offers. However, I ended up buying silver charms from Pandora.sg instead, no discounts or sale @ Pandora. 

My silver jewellery now is this Pandora leather strap with a silver clasp and silver glass charms that I purchased a few years ago. Decided against mixing brands even though it looks similar.

The new charms are Sun Stars & Moon, Star Constellation, Sleepy Moon Dangle, enamel Butterfly. Delivery package came with a zip jewellery box, OMG! 

And a free gift, the new Moon & Star open bangle also in sterling silver. I will wear both bracelets together. It's a nice package.

A-One Claypot x Deliveroo

It's still the Chinese New Year, this meal was over Renri or everybodys birthday yesterday. Usually we get sushi, something different this year.

The offer is free claypot of fish maw & crabmeat soup that's like shark's fin soup without sharks fin. It even came in an actual claypot. 

The vinegar it came with is very aromatic, think got Chinese wine inside.

My order of honey chicken, stir-fried vege and claypot seafood coz there is no tofu version available from this eatery. 

Island Shop / Calvin Klein

It's the first day of Chinese New Year! 

From Island Shop Tangs, I got 2 macramé tees @ $50, normally the price is $200. All the current stuff at Island Shop now reminds me of Philippines, I thought I was going to get a couple of house dresses coz I got the discount for 50% off all dresses, as it turns out the offer is actually buy 39 dresses and get 1 dress free.

Ordering direct from CalvinKlein.sg website in order to get matching leggings to exercise top, on Zalora.sg there is only the exercise top available no leggings. One denim dress, I think this is the only denim dress I own for real. Overall, confirmation of order and delivery took a month. Discounts were about 50%. That completes my 60 outfits.

Meatballs and Pencai for lunch, finally its not ridiculously salty. This pencai has cabbage, pigs trotters, fishballs, prawns all placed into a pot and steamed with water, nothing else.

Zalora.sg Lucky Bag?

Ahead of the Chinese New Year (next week!) I couldn't resist ordering from Zalora.sg again all clothing items @ fukubukuro or lucky bag prices. If I combine my previous purchase of mostly Levis with this order, each item costs S$36.83. Clothing sizes delivered are random even though I ordered all the same size.

This order has a large number of dresses that I am hoping will last longer than pants. I realize I needed 60 outfits to last me 20 years. It's not a huge walk-in wardrobe but just 3 outfits a year coz that's how long these clothing lasts. If I want to wear this everyday than its 6 outfits a year for a decade.

I can work weekdays earning money and weekends spending money on clothing. Purchasing just 1 or 2 items at a time so I don't cross a line with the stores. That will give me enough clothing to last the year. Once I stop working all my clothing wears out and I have nothing to wear.

You don't want to hang all your clothing up at once coz people will break in to destroy your clothing, I know this from personal experience it has happened before. So all the stuff stays in storage in original waterproof packaging, not in your wardrobe.

There's a dozen dresses here and 5 complete outfits of tops, bottoms, outerwear. The River Island sweater is supposed to be oversized in white but came a size too small in light brown. I also got this vintage looking track jacket coz there is a track pants in my previous order that needs to be made into a set.
