Mystery solved

Remember that I mentioned that somehow my mobile phone went kaput in Monday's post? Apparently, I am the silly sausage (I picked up this expression from a colleague of mine), because I set the year on the date setting to 2010! How silly of me, right? So, any photos, messages, incoming call records, were found in older folder.

Anyway, mystery phone issue is solved finally. Here are photos of Flea What? fashion bazaar:

Shop, shop, shop...

A participating stall

I will try to be more careful in the future to avoid anymore silly mistakes. Anyway, Friday is around the corner. Yay! Have a great evening/day.

An almost shopping spree Sunday


It was truly an almost shopping spree last Sunday. Still had to look after my wallet or piggy bank though. Had to control myself. First stop was Kutu Market at Bistro 69, Metropolitan Square. If I am not mistaken, I think there were two vintage stalls, which I bought these items:

I know, I know, I bought a similar sailor top last month, with white stripes. I love sailor top and here is a little secret, I like man in uniform especially in navy uniform or sailor uniform :-) Perhaps this is the reason why I love sailor top so much...

After that, I went home to continue doing my house chores (most probably the most boring chores- ironing clothes, cleaning etc). Lah' Lah' Land: Flea What? fashion bazaar was on my to-go-flea market for the day. Somehow, my phone went kaput after dropping it (ouch....). Well, not totally kaput but somehow it is not the same as before. Took few photos of the bazaar but I could not locate them inside my phone. Sigh.

Anyway, it was good to catch up a bit with Ana and Tirah. Oh, I bought a vintage blazer from anaabu at a good deal - 50% of the price. Ana had a price slash on that day and it would be a shame for those who have missed this.

On another note, remember I mentioned about my pre-loved clothes? Well, I hope I was able to thank the buyers personally on that day but unfortunately I could not. Thanks to Ana for your kind assistance too. Thanks again!

Hope everyone will have a very good week ahead!

Exciting weekend...

This weekend is going to be an interesting weekend for flea market or bazaar lovers. Why? There would be four flea markets or bazaars for shopaholics to satisfy their hunger for shopping! This is unbelievable.





On another note, my lovely blogger friend, Ana from anaabu, has extended a helping hand to sell my old clothes. They are in need of new homes. She will be at Flea What? tomorrow. Do check out her cool vintage stuff!

Here is a little sneak peek....

Happy shopping and have a great weekend!

Serendipitous find


In between running my errands on Sunday in Mutiara Damansara, I stumbled upon an interesting stall. Prices shown were RM10 (for a blouse) and RM15 (for a dress). Checked (something within my budget). Some dresses got the vintage look (circa 1970s to 1980s). Double checked. Somehow one of the dresses managed to find its way into my grocery shopping bag.

Whilst doing your grocery shopping, have you ever experienced that one or few items which are not on your shopping list made it into your shopping cart or shopping basket? Well, this mustard dress is one of these experiences.

Happy Tuesday everyone. Three more days to the weekend!

I just can't stop...


How was your weekend? Hope it was a great one. My sis and I went to Bijou Bazaar at MAP@Publika, Solaris Dutamas yesterday. The mission was to get my sis a boyfriend blazer or boyfriend-blazer-like blazer. As for me, I was not supposed to get anything but....

I purchased three skirts! These look like vintage skirts circa 70's to 80's, suitable for work, casual and play. To be honest, I do not dare to calculate the money that I have spent so far to cross check with my budget. I might faint. Oh gosh....

Anyway, hope everyone will have a great week ahead!

Fun Sunday

What?!? Could you believe that Vintage Rockstar gave out free dresses last weekend at I love Bazaar, Subang Parade? It was true and I have taken two dress. Although these dresses have some defects but if you know how to fix the defects, you would have given these lovely dresses another life.

Here is one of the dresses that I have taken. Pastel pink - so unlike me. Love the design of dress, it is so 60s style.


With members of Thr5t. Apologies for the quality of photos. I use cheap digital camera (6.0 mega pixel!)

Bought the above skirt. Such a lovely skirt, don't you think? How can I resist??

Hope everyone had a great Monday. Four more days to go to the weekend. I am counting the days already...

Young and full of dreams

Photo taken from ana and her talking bulb

Last Saturday, it was a day to remember. A day that Ana from anaabu (formerly known as Vintage Packstocks) and I finally met in person. All these while we have been customer-seller relationship, then moved to following each other blogs and exchanging comments in the blogging world. It was great fun to meet Ana and her friends: Suwa and Tirah from Flashback.



Suwa and Ana - after a long day at I love bazaar, Subang Parade

As for Suwa, we were acquainted through exchanging comments on each other blogs. I checked out her blog once in a while. She has a cool blog - love her photos and her thoughts.

These young ladies are young and full of dreams. So much passion and they dare to dream big. I seriously envy them. They inspire me that dreams can be pursued regardless age. Just go for it! It was really, really great to meet and hang out with them. Good luck with your latest and upcoming project, Thr5t. All the best! Can't wait for it...

Weekend of temptations...

So happy it's Thursday because tomorrow it is Friday, which means that weekend is around the corner! This weekend would be a temptation since that I have vowed to cut down or stop spending. This is because I have found out about two bazaars - Midnight Bazaar: Vintage Paradise by UYA! Distro (26 to 28 Nov) and Kutu Market on 28 Nov. Well, come to think of it, I guess it is better to cut down bit by bit then totally stop, right? Ok. I have made up my mind that I would cut down thrifting budget to RM50 for the first three months, then RM30 for next three months and RM20 per month thereafter. This weekend's spending would be taken consideration as Dec's thrifting budget, therefore if I have spent all this weekend, I can not thrift at all in Dec. Sounds fair? Let the challenge begins...
