Shopping Haunts for Plus Size

If you are a plus size like me, do you have difficulties finding clothes? I mean come on, looking at the women around me, they are so small or so skinny, I'm like gosh, I feel so out of place. But don't fret, girls. It's not the end of the world. Actually, I've got some tips which I've picked up from some sources and my personal experience too that probably will help you to give you some ideas on where to get your clothes and how to wear them. Anyway I did a post on this before but you know, second time can be a little bit better. That sounds a bit wrong. Moving on.. Forever 21. I bought some clothes from here before and if you can really look through the racks and the multi storeys (which basically is just 313@Somerset), at times you can get find clothes or dresses that will look flattering on you if you are plus size.  Cotton On. Not all Cotton On carry bigger size labels and in varieties. Sometimes the clothes are quite bleh like so generic but you should...

Beauty 101: Wet N Wild Palettes (Vanity)

Hold on to your horses peeps because I am doing a marathon blog post writing...ha! To basically occupy my time because I feel like I owe you valuable things to read.  If you are on a tight budget but want to get a make up palette with such intense colours, I recommend you the drugstore make up product from Wet N Wild which is not found in Singapore but if you know your way around beauty blogs, you can actually find out where to get them. And in Sing dollars, it's not that expensive. I bought mine at $12.00. I know that I told myself NOT to spend on make up anymore and to try to take part in contest for a chance to win some make up products but alas, so not working. Plus, it's only $12.  Anyway, if you live in Singapore, I can suggest two reliable blogs that source for their products and sell it to you. In the US, they are selling around $4.00 to $5.00 so over there, it's simply one of the best drugstore make up products. I got mine in Vanity. I like the fac...

Celebrating A Friend's Birthday

This isn't a good time but I'm not going to cloud my blog with bad vibes all the time..haha. It has been awhile since I last wrote something constructive that I can share with all of you peeps rather than just depressing posts. Recently, I went out with a friend of mine and I think we have been friends since like forever..but then we just plan to keep it that way. To me, it is always good to maintain good relationship with your friends especially those that you are close with because friends are important and they can actually keep you grounded. Provided, they are good to you. Those that bring nothing but trouble, please step away from them. Anyway, I gave her a present which is actually a top from Cotton On. Now I'm not the best giver of gifts because I'm constantly on tight budget. But you know, I do make the effort. Sometimes, people can be fussy then I can't stop them from being so. For myself, I appreciate any gifts (really..) because I don't expect peopl...

What Hari Raya Means to Me

Hi,  first of all, wishing all my muslim friends and readers, a Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri. Honestly, I am the last person you should expect to be in such celebratory mood compared to the rest of the people, haha. With all due respect, I think it is a beautiful occasion as we celebrate the end of the one month of fasting and it is also the day where we pay our respect to our elders and ask for forgiveness among friends and relatives.  If you go house visiting, you get to meet your relatives, chit chat and bond over food that are especially cooked during the occasions.  For me, it is not really a joyous occasion. It has been like that over the years though at times,  I do visit houses if I am invited. I do get to enjoy the food though I have to be careful as the food cooked on this day are usually..well..let's just say they don't call it joyous for nothing, ha!  While I respect the occasion, I hope they don't overspend because while it can be such a...

Praying for Things to Get Better

When life isn't treating you well, what do you do? Do you just take it in your stride and just hope for the best to come soon? Or you just sink deeper and deeper until you don't know whether you want to go on with life or you would rather be dead than be in this state of suffering? As you can see from my last few posts, I can honestly tell you that this is like one of the worst times of my life. Ironically, I should be in a celebraty mood because the Muslim celebration Hari Raya is just around the corner and as much as I tried to save up as much as I can, lady luck isn't on my side. I don't even get any piece of news about an advance pay. It is almost the day itself, which is on Tuesday, and I have my doubts that I will get the pay anytime soon.  So what can I do about it? Basically nothing I guess. While we are encouraged to celebrate it, even in the simplest manner, I just couldn't. How can I when I am practically broke? I sought help before and got myself a...

A Little Rant

I tell upfront that this isn't my year. I don't know if it has anything to do with me turning 30, but God forbids. Anyway, I am just taking it all in my stride, with the hope that things will get better. While I am happy that during such difficult times, I did get offers of monetary help which helps me to tide things over but there is just this short disappointment that well, not everybody can be nice about it. I don't wish to elaborate on it. I would rather talk about how I am just treating this as part of life and that not everyone seems to be what they seem to be. Like come on, even I don't know who I am a 100%, let alone someone else? But it kinda makes you wonder what got you there in the first place with that particular someone? Was it something that they do? Something that I did? I really don't know. All I know is that it is not going to be easy getting out of it. I just have to see it in another perspective and just learn my mistakes and not to take it to...
