Ugh.. burnt a hole in my pocket this weekend.

Every weekend, Mr Grumpy and I will go for brunch, wherever suits our fancy, not too expensive. So yesterday, we settled for Coffee Bean's all day breakfast. Not too bad considering its almost the same price as McDonalds (yea the McD's here is dollar for dollar). ^_^


Piping hot tea and coffee

Foodie!


Since, weekend is the only time I ever get time to see the daylight (no, REALLY) I have to get my dress by either Saturday or Sunday (as next week will be back to attend wedding dinner). I didnt really see something I liked around my area (we ended up walking for about.... 3 hours), so I managed to convince Mr Grumpy to go to City Hall with me. At City Hall, 1 shop, 3 dresses and half an hour later:

I got me a pretty tube dress.


I can be very decided once I set my eyes on something pretty. So its useless to make me walk everywhere else to find. Thats why I snapped it up so fast. I know if in a weeks time, I will still buy the same dress.

Its fairly priced for that material (European fabric, so it says) and design (pouffy skirt and the design on the dress is velvety feel...3D effect). Comparing to a boring Zara dress (plain and lacy). It set me back about $159. I managed to convince Mr Grumpy that this dress will be dual purpose, 1. wedding dinner; and 2. annual dinner (coming up!). Heheheheheh... whether in the end I will wear this dress again to the annual dinner.. .is another matter.. huahuahua!

Sunday came, and we decided hawker fare for brunch. Mr Grumpy had to go to work to settle some stuff, and let me be, all by my lonesome to shop. The damage:


Zara: Matching skirt and jacket. Boring. Not worth talking about cos its for work
Allure: My dress above
Pazzionz: Shoes
BYSI: a cute top, which I painstakingly have to source for a matching skirt... but I found it in Zara (the matching one with the jacket.. so its dual purpose again! smartie me!)

Some earrings from (Six) http://www.click-six.com. They were having sale, so I got them for $3 each.

All I'm lacking is a bag to complete the set. But I have spotted one in Guess... which will be bought............ soon! Still cant decide from the DKNY one (clutch). Hmmmmmm..
