285: Addiction To L'adorn

Shopping at L'adorn could become an addiction.
I warned you ladies, this addiction is contagious. To make it worse, not only ladies..boys love them too. Haha..

Don't trust me? .. here is the living proof;

"Mama yang ni emir punya yeh"
See..see, my boy was saying that while grabbing one of the L'adorn scarf when I was trying out the rest of the scarves  of my second batch purchased the other day =P (lol)

How about you? Are you ready to be infected with this L'adorn fever yet?

277: L'adorn London Scarves

Finally, the most awaited L'adorn London parcel has come to mama! :p

Yippiee..yayy!!

Take a look at their lovely packaging...

(White roses menggedik nak enter frame jugak) :p

And my purchase ^__^
Cotton Mixed Scarf:HJ00024 (left) and Oblong Satin scarf: OS00021 (right)

For now, I only managed to grab these two scarves (Yes, I'm going to buy more..!!)

If you follow L'adorn London (in twitter or FB), you'll know they are updating stocks on Monday. I could have made my purchase in the middle of last week, but after have known that stocks are coming in every Monday, I reserved my order and waited for Monday to see some of the new catch-of-the-week.

But then....

Most of  the 'just-in' scarves has been sold when I checked them on Monday morning around 10-ish. Man, I need to be quick next time. Should I get ready on Sunday midnight to be the first to view and grab the new-in? 

Hmmm...I don't wanna miss out, I think I can do that tonight :p

As mentioned by Hana in her blog about this Cotton Mixed Scarf:

 "You can wear them in any way you want. You can wear them as a shawl or fold and wear them as a square scarf. Brilliant! You can wear them on your shoulder for those non-hijabi as well. They are so flexible I feel like I want to buy all of them"

~Hana Fedora

Totally agreed!

I tried it on immediately after I unpacked the parcel and it was super easy to wear. The first picture down here is my attempt of wearing the  haven't been ironed scarf without pin while the second picture shows the ironed scarf. You couldn't tell much difference right? In fact, I don't see any difference, haha..
So the best word to describe this scarf is.. no ironing needed!(Happy!).. and most important, it looks good on my round face too (Double happy!!)

OOhhh  I'm super duper falling in love with them now, I couldn't help my self from scrolling l'adorn london website every now and then to see if these scarves have been restocked even  it was clearly told that updates is on Monday. 
Haha, I'm obsessed like that :p

See, now I have a reason for not hating Monday. Thank you L'adorn! You've made my Monday=))

234: Fabulous Mom

I know i'd been promising not to indulge with further baby stuff shopping activities in my previous entry (meaning to say, after i done with shopping at Maternity expo Mid Valley). But the visit to the expo was not a fruitful one. I still need to look around until all items in my baby shopping list are physically here in my home and in my hospital bag. 

And for that reason, I am updating another purchase of my quest to fulfill the baby needs.

 The First Years Spinning Rack                                                        Munchkin Deluxe Drying Rack

I have omitted electric bottle sterilizer from my list.Yes..for real, after I'm taking advice from my friend, Nadia (mommy to cutie Asyraf) to use the old conventional way of sterilizing bottle. Either boil them or using the sterilizer tablet..much cheaper and wiser spending than buying a brand new electric sterilizer :p

But..there's a point to ponder. Must ensure that bottle is totally dried up before use! Here comes the drying rack to play it's role.

I browsed through the online shops and selecting as much drying racks from various brands (macam banyak pun :p) and start selecting one that meet my need and pocket. At first, I was attracted to 'the first years' spinning drying rack. The original price was RM 79.90 and it is now selling at RM59.90 at mybbstore.com. I thought it was a really good price not until I found Munchkin Deluxe Drying Rack from babymanja.com

But the searching does not end there. I finally found out the best deal for drying rack at Fabulous Mom. Presenting (drum roll)..Treenie Classic Drying Rack.

The rack is holding Jingle Jungle standard bottles and the wide neck bottle from The First Years. Look at the rack closely. Doesn't it look so much alike Munchkin? :p

If you still prefer Munchkin drying rack, this shop also selling at the lowest price compared to the others that I found..RM 35.90 WITH purchase of RM100 in a single receipt.

I went to Fabulous mom shop at Ukay Boulevard and bought these. Maybe it would be useful for your reference if you're looking for the same item too. But to get this price, please be hurry as their sale period is only up to 15 April 2012.

1. Jingle Jungle Storage Bottle 6 pack - RM 19.92

2. Trainee Classic Drying Rack- RM 29.90

3. Hooded baby blanket- RM 23.92

I bought 3 packs of jingle jungle bottles make it 18 bottles alltogether. Hoho..I did not plan to buy so much storage bottles at first as I was thinking to use storage bags and then store them in this storage organizer. But again, as advised by my experienced friend (this time, Dot: mommy to cutie Aqif), it could be a hassle to transfer from bag to bottle especially when you plan to send your baby to a baby sitter. In this case, storage bottle is a better option ya..Owwhh, I remembered Ezal did say something about this organizer when we first saw it at Motherhood Expo, KLCC. "Macam bahan ujikaji dalam lab" :p

mybbstore

"Helps keep breastmilk safe and organized! Spring-loaded drawer freezes milk flat and and pushes up front, so all mom has to do is load the rack from the back for first-in, first out! Cover included to keep breast milk isolated from other items in the freezer, or can be used to hold bags for extra storage. Dishwasher-safe, works with most brands of milk storage bags, and maximizes space by freezing milk flat."

222: Mothercare, KLCC

I am on my 22 weeks now. As the number of weeks increased, my number of wearable pants decreased. Haih~ I was so in need of buying at least a pair of new pants or else I'll keep rotating with limited nos. of pants: my low cut Levi's jeans, my high waist Seed's pleated pants, my blue Courtyard palazzo pants, the beige Elle pants, and the only maternity black Scarlet pants which I bought few months back but still a bit loose on me. So, how many of that alltogether? 5 nos. Just enough for a week wear to office. Don't mention Baju kurung. All of them already 'shrink' (only) at the waist part..hheee, except for one kebaya which the sarong is quite low waist :p.

Without a clear plan in mind last Saturday, we headed to KLCC to have a coffee time at San Fran. Coffee. Before that, we visited the refurbished Isetan, which I was lost at the first place when I couldn't find Sun Moulin Bakery at it's usual place, Level 3. Hoho, it (supermarket and bakery) has been transferred to the lowest ground indeed. That means, Isetan now occupied every floor from the Concourse level up towards the 4th floor. 

After the 'extreme mocha' moment, we went around and found Mothercare at the extended wing (Ramlee Mall side). If I'm not mistaken, previously it was located at Ampang Mall wing, just next to Watson. The good thing is, the new shop is waaayyyy bigger than the previous lot and some stuff are on sale up to 50% !!

Oo btw...I started shopping for my baby since the past few weeks...errr, ok, frankly the past few months ;) The first romper suit was bought when I don't even know my baby's gender yet..I was too excited, who doesn't? :p.

Here are some of the stuff that I bought from Mothercare and some are bought online from Kidz Appear Shoppe. For myself, I bought a pair of maternity jeans with a removable waist band which can be removed later after pregnancy. It's very comfortable and the jersey band felt really soft on my stomach.. that it doesn't grip too much and it feel just great!!

Finally, as we made our way out from the extended new wing.. I just stopped by at this very cute set up outside Charlie Brown Cafe..don't you love the decoration too? ;)

205: Maysaa Wrap Band

I was in a text conversation with my sweetest kak Fara earlier today when we were talking about MAYSAA long awaited restocking for their famous wrap band. Later midnight, when I was checking my e-mail, I am overjoyed to receive Maysaa's newsletter; announcing  their new released scarves and snoods, featuring two brand new colors, white and dark blue. (I am truly excited that I'm straight away updating it here, it's so obvious isn't it?)
Anyway, both colors look good on the model, but my choice is still black and always be black =)

I'm going to make order at the soonest. Ladies,  if you're thinking of sharing order please let me know by dropping your comment here or shoot me an email  at: llapplegreenll@yahoo.com.
