have been so so so busy the past few days with tons of photos waiting to be uploaded, from bangkok to my birthday, new clothes ive gotten from club couture which i used for a shoot, (really excited to share this cus the clothes and pictures look great!), and more!

talking about clothes, another item to complete your outfit is the bag you carry. im quite anal about my outfit not matching, this includes my bag, but, im also very lazy to change bags on althernate days since transferring items from one bag to the other is a chore. and punctuality is not my forte, hence, i got no time to transfer my stuff. okay, one, is to get the storage pouch which you can easily transfer from bag to bag, or two, get a bag that matches most of your outfits.

since i do not have the storage pouch, of course i had to have a really versatile bag, that can bring me from formal to casual.

i have been lusting over the birkin bag since forever but even if i pawn all my possesions, flea away my mountain of clothes, i still wouldnt be able to afford one, but i suppose an inspired one will do! i love this bag which tianfenlan kindly gave to me, i swear i had such a hard time deciding between the caramel and the cream one. its really way roomier than it looks, since the sides are expandable if you dont lock the bag, which i do all the time.

you guys should head on over to their site to check out the bags, its really affordable and they have new designs as often as gossip girl airs on CW. haha. meanwhile, after shopping for bags, you could also pop over to polkadotpigs to get an outfit to match your new bag (:

oh yah, i found a random picture of me from the 50 gorgeous preview from their facebook page. thank you all for coming down the other day!

finals will be on the 26th at zouk, i will give out some invites if i have extras okay? and if you havent voted, christine yeo is on the first row, fourth thumbnail. hee. VOTE! (:

today is the first day of operation "fat face no more".

i put exercise back into my dictionary which had been long forgotten and erased. i breathed in the fresh air and felt the sun in my hair, i was reminded of how unfit i am and why i have always hated running (and still do).

i went back to an alternate week vege and carb diet, since the last time i did that, i was convinced that vege really clears your system and bowels efficiently. i also am reminded of how much i love my red meat and am totally craving for a large slab of beef with mushroom sauce, or beef bourguignon, that would be delightful.

october is my favourite month, so prize for guessing why. it my birthday of course! i love birthdays, because birthdays equals to get togethers and presents and food and more food! almost like christmas, without the (fake aka spray can) snow. i love christmas, especially christmas 08, but thats another story for another day.

anyway, talking about presents, here's a little stash from my celebration at sunset grill with b, corde, gab, daryl, elaine and brandon. more pictures soon after corde uploads them. oh, plus the dodo pomellato necklace my mum gave me. (:

i have more presents to come from more mini dinner celebrations this week. excited* plusss! not forgetting my favourite brand ettusais who asked me to select some items as my birthday gift! its awesome to be an ambassador for them. heh.

well, for you guys, fret not! if youre an ettusais member, you get to enjoy privilages such as invites to an ettusais birthday part on the month of your birthday, have our mailer directly mailed to your doorstep, earn double reward chops from purchases at the party plus a special birthday gift from ettusais!

what are reward chops? they are chops you accumulate with you purchases (1 chop for every $10 spent at ettusais) to redeem a $10 voucher with 20 chops and get your membership renewed. double chops means a faster route to get your hands on those vouchers!

and sometimes, you dont even have to wait for your birthday month to enjoy this double chops promotion. ie, right now for the month of october:

double chops just for recommending a friend! i told you october is an awesome month! (:

OH, members also get to enjoy monthly 'gifts with purchase' which is either only exclusive to members or non-members have to spend more to get it. like this duck luggauge that was free to all members with a purchase of a $100! feel special already?

(picture credit to rouge-deluxe)

now, how do become an ettusais member?

its actually pretty darn easy, all you have to do is to purchase any skin care item to qualify and your next purchase would start earning you chops already!

and because i declare that october is a smashing month, all of you who sign up as a member from now till the end of oct, will each get a bonus beauty gift! all you have to do is to let the counter person know that you are a reader of christine's blog!

enjoy october guys! we're only 2 months away from christmas. (:

no one probably cares about my obsession over chuck bass, but did anyone notice how especially tantilizing chuck looked when he brushed his hand through his (newly cut) hair at the scene with the josh ellis guy in ep6? complete with "tut, tut." ahhh, omg, hotness personified.
