Missy C from Paris with Love!!!

Akhirnya...
entry yg di tangguh-tangguh!! hehe...
now ni agak berchenta nk blogging..byk sebab gak la..
one thing bz bee..
but this 2 weeks my sisters ade so bz memonteng and jln2..hikhik...

ok time to reveal my Missy C...
jeng..jeng..jeng...

(pada sesiapa yg dah ade byk tu mmg la tak heran..but for me??
mesti lah heran!! susah woo nk dapat!!!Giler berchenta ..sampai dh anak nk masuk 3 br nk dapat!!!hehe...)

I bought this piece from
Chanel Boutique
Avenue Montaigne
42, avenue Montaigne
75008 Paris

(hint pd sesiapa nk menjejak kaki di situh!! ;p )

on that day they just dis-assembled the catwalk platform..x tau la ade show or ape before tuh...
so dapat la bergaya atas catwalk ni..kitorang terlambat sikit je..kalau tak mesti ade lg deco die..sob sob...

perasan tak I got flower on everything..
yup mula2 ingat kt paper bag je..

bile blk rumah and tgk kt box pun ade...

then bile bukak, ade lg satu white flower..
eiii terasa best giler!!
mcm ade org bg gift jek!!! ;))

konon2 tanak bukak box ni until i pass my MPaed Dent..but on 2nd thought, mane boleh tahan babe!!! hehhehe..
nk simpan rahsia from my close handbag friends pun susah!!! ;P

My 2.55 Classic Chanel Double Flap Jumbo in Red..
actually this is the latest in the Cruise Collection 2010/2011..


ni pun last piece in that boutique..
bile SA tu call London, only one left in Selfridges..

but knowing how Chanel in Selfridges was, I just made up my mind!!
tak suke pegi situ..yg best pegi kt Harrods!!

I dun really speak Chanel, pardon me..

(me ni org2 yg tak sempat nk study2 nih!!hehe..)

before ni yg ade double flap is medium 2.55, but the new collection, Jumbo and Maxi ade double flap..hence the more expensive price..
xpe laa..alang2 dh beli, beli je mana yg suka kan??

Personally i like the double flap.
rase mcm secured sket..and it's different!!!

And ade embossed Chanel inside...


Well, bile dh beli bag merah mak ngah ni..mula lah pening nk melawa kan..
bukan boleh pakai sembarangan..nnt nampak mcm clown pulak...

Luckily I just bought a new black dress before I went to Paris..
tak tau pulak nk dpt bag merah..hehee...

so my first Missy C outing was to Madame Tussauds!!

And tak sia2 pegi sini amik gambar dgn A-listers..hehe...
mmg kt sini theme colour mostly Black and Red!!
so kire sedondon la dgn theme Mdm Tussauds ni!! hehheheee...

and the red belt pulak, nk di jadikan cerita tgh dress up ternampak my belt yg dh berkurun tak pakai...and sbb rase dress tu kosong sgt and my bulging bum pun obvious, so kene minimalis je..

Alhamdulillah I like it so much!!!

and dh berjaya lah si Missy C ni amik angin kt London..
and now kene masuk blk dlm box..hehhehe...

simpan la tak sure bile lg nk pakai..

ape2 pun i have no regret buying this red bag..sbb ni limited colour..yg black tu InsyaAllah in the future bile ade rezeki blh la beli lg..HOPEFULLY laaa....

(actually I was aiming for pinky but now its not the season..ade ternampak Datin Norjuma pakai dlm magazine mane tah mase blk Msia hrtu..tu yg bersemangat gi cari kt Paris..but now season terang benderang lah mak ngah!!)

Ape2 pun Red is among my fave colour!!!
Stunning babe!!!

ok laaa..
gonna sleep tight and hv a sweet dream and melayan perut ku yg getting bigger each day!!!


p/s: Boxing day blh concentrate on my agenda on baby stuffs!!! before VAT and price increases next year!! ;)

Autumn Hols 3: Paris Je T'Aime

Alhamdulillah...Syukur pada rezeki yg Allah bagi..
Tak disangka2 dapat pergi Paris lagi...it was an unplanned trip...

Actually my sisters called a few weeks before their trip and told me they wanted to go to Paris..mula2 bengang la jugak dh last minute br nk bgtau..But semua tu rezeki sbb tiba2 Eurostar ade buat promotion...so last minute booking dapat la tiket murah and both of them sponsored me..hehe..yelah nk lepaskan diorang pegi sendiri mcm tak sampai hati..dh alang2 jd tour guide kan..so me pun mengatur la strategi bershopping!!

Dh la week before tu br pegi Disneyland..and pegi gak the outlet.. see my previous entry..
But nothing much there. so selamat sket la duit ku..hehe..

We went to Paris for one day only. Pegi early in the morning, train 5.30am and blk mlm tu jugak at 9 ish...yelah now bukan tgh cuti pun..
tu pun pandai2 la cancel kan clinics and kebetulan i'm not really well the day before. So ade excuse la ponteng..hehhe... *jgn bocor okay!!!

This trip was a bit different..
Well 3 of us never go anywhere together..I mean just 3 of us..sbb beza umur byk kot..My sister got married when I just started my degree and I got married quite early too..
so we all tak pernah la pegi vacay single mingle nih..

lgpun my BIL agak conservative..so on my last trip to Msia, I dh berjaya meracun my sister and mintak permission my BIL..hehe..berjaya babe!!
My sis kate if die cakap sendiri sure tak dapat!!
And my yougest sister pun dh keje..so ade la duit sendiri die nk spend...eventho I paid for her flight ticket..takpe laah kan..

Nway i was excited about this trip, dh lama tak buat girls outing kan..duk oversea ni susah nk pegi jauh2 without family..lgpun dh ade family angkut la kan..

ni ade la solid reason to go alone..lgpun br a week before that balik from Paris Disneyland..diorang pun tak heran nk jalan dah..

ok enjoy the pics people..
mmg camwhore habis habisan laaa...hehe..
last time mase pegi Paris with my parents, Adib asyik buat hal je..
nk amik gambar pun malas..

so ni kire balas dendam laaa... ;P

Actually this time we took a day pass Metro ticket..
if nk naik hop on hop off agak pricey if for one day..kalau 2 days ok..
so it just cost us 6.30 euro..

We started our journey to Arc de Triomphe..(opps tertinggal pulak pics..)

then to Tour Eiffel..
we stopped by at Bier Hakiem and walk about 5 minutes..

Pic ni saje nk buat kenangan I'm at my 23 weeks..
penat mendera my sis amik byk2 kali sampai jadi..hehe...nk tgk my bulging bum..
nnt boleh buat profile pic.. ;)

The 3 of us..
my eldest sis ni muka my mom..even die dress up and masak pun mcm my mom..

Then we walked to Trocadero..
last time mase hubby and my parents turun sini, I was comforting Adib yg melalak sampai sejam kt atas tuh..
terlepas peluang nk posing kt patung nude ni..
aawwwwwwww!!!!

After Trocadero,
we went to Gallery La Fayette, shopping kejap laa..
Kt Champs De Elysees tak jln lg..mmg reserved nk pegi balik after habis sightseeing..

With high hope to buy things..in and out several boutiques, sampai ke sudah satu benda pun takde..
Last time mase pegi with my mom dapat la jugak special edition Le Pliage..galleries La Fayette punye..this time jgn kan special edition, classic le pliage pun xde stock..maybe sbb dekat nk christmas kot..

So dgn rase hampa kitorang pun meneruskan perjalanan ke Musee D louvre...
amik pics kt opera just opposite La Fayette..

Musee d'Louvre

Well malas gak nk masuk sbb takut x cukup mase..afterall nk tgk Monalisa je kan..hehe...

camwhoring gaya Mak Buyung..hehe...

Then meneruskan perjalanan pegi Notre Dame..


ok la gak this time tak ramai sgt org..tak mcm during Easter break..penuh nye that time..sampai my parents malas nk amik pics..
my parents ni kalau jln dgn diorang yg penting shopping..
sbb bas hop on tu stop dpn kedai takmo dh pegi amik pics ke ape ke..hehe..

this time I made it compulsary to take pics in every place that we went..yelah tak tau bile lg nk pegi..cfm tak pegi while i'm in London dh..3 kali ke Paris..cukup2 la tuh!! ;P

Then we had our lunch+tea at this Crepe restaurant..

We ordered Lemon sugar, Chestnut cream and Nutella Banana Crepes..
Sodap..
if pegi Paris tak sah kalau tak makan crepe nih!!

Then tour guide menjalankan duty tgk next destination..
btw after Notre Dame, kira dh habis main sightseeing..
so mase yg ditunggu2 dh tiba..
Ke Champs de Elysee....
Horaayyy!!!


Misi macaroons pulak and shopping maybe??hehheheh...

Mc Cafe..
yg best kt France..McD pun ade their own cafe..
so this time our mission was to compare between McD and Laduree... ;)


tp belum sempat jln ke mana, semua org dh complaint letih, sakit kaki..
nasib me ni yg dh 5 months tahan lg..
dh biasa exercise kt london kaann..hehe..
so lepak la kejap kt Starbucks..refresh...

sambil study camane nk pegi Avenue Montaigne..*wink2..

Bile dh ok..cont balik..ingat nk jenguk LV boutique but kene patah balik pulak..so semua malas..
we headed straight to Laduree..
last time mase i went with hubby dh malam and nk tutup..so tak sempat nk beli pun..

This time siap queue lg..ingat nk dine in for tea and macaroons or pastry..
but unfortunately ramai sgt org and takut our next mission tak sempat..mase ni dh around 4ish..
so just pegi beli for take out je.. ;(

Actually dlm ni tak blh amik pics..but biasalah dh ade my sis..hehe..
so we all gune camera compact je..curik2 amik pics dlm ni..
I tell you...Laduree ni mmg best..tergoda tgk semua benda..
My eldest sis ni baker..kt Langkawi mmg die buat part time biz cakes, kuih and pastries..
so mmg suke la die tgk berbagai2 jenis pastries..

packaging chocs die pun cantiks!! eiii geram je..
tp kecik sgt..nk beli kang takut pulak nk makan..hehhe..and a bit pricey..
kt London pun ade 2 Laduree so blh pegi sini jee...

Pastries..
I just bought toffee almond pastry..lupe nk snap pic..sedaaaappp....

Special John Galliano box..
lupe nk request for this box..tp dpt classic box pun dh lawa..


Whopie and choc eclairs...
cuppies pun lawa..but cuppies me pun blh buat..hehe...

and bought a box of macaroons...
yummeh!!!

Horaaayyy..
dapat Macaroons and pastries...

dh around 5ish dh start gelap...
so cepat2 nk ke Avenue td..last time lalu je..
tak masuk pun jln tuh..patut le tak perasan kedai ituh!! hehehhe...

Actually Avenue Montaigne ni ala2 Bond Street and New Bond Street..
semuanye designer boutiques..
but jauh lg cantik deco die from London..
especially bile dh gelap...
sempat la ber 'camwhoring' at few boutiques...

and jalan punye jalan...
cari punye cari..
baru la jumpe tempat yang di tuju!!!!!

CHANEL !!!!!!!!!!!

adoi mase dh jumpe tuh terhyperventilating kejap..
sbb mase tak byk and still contemplating nk beli or not..
actually kt la Fayette dh masuk but nasib xde stock..hehe...

and nasib we all pun baik, orang tak ramai and maybe sbb dh petang kot..
dapat pulak SA yg baik and peramah..
duk la melayan me yg byk songeh ni..
Actually I'm quite fussy but sbb selalu pegi sorang tak perasan la pulak..hehhee...
this time jenuh my sisters tunggu..but they are very supportive..hehe..

boleh siap tolong pilih lagi..

dgn contemplating nya lagi...

siap suh SA tu call London butik to find out...die pun dgn baik hati call London..and i got all the infos..siap suh compare harga etc..kekkekekeke...
ala if serious nk beli ape salahnye kan..

tu la advantage nye slalu kuar masuk Chanel kt London..cume tak terbeli je before nih! ;P

Akhirnya..setelah clarify everything...
dengan hyperventilating nyeer...

I got My first ever Missy C...
not from Rue Cambon..
But from Avenue Montaigne..
and i made the right choice going to this boutique coz most of the stores has ran out of stocks that day..
La Fayette didn't have stocks for 3 days already!!!
Alhamdulillah tu la yg dikata rezeki....

Owh am smiling ear to ear..
penat menabung...i still can't believe my eyes and myself that I owned this wish bag..

thanks to her..she really made my day!!!
and thanks to my sisters gak yang sabar melayan kerenah adik/kakak sorang ni...
and helped me in making the rite decision..
i think if i went alone mesti i choose the other one...

and the next day, mulut ni gatal gak nk bgtau my dear friend..she is pakar handbag..
and she was so excited to hear that and told me that i was so lucky and i made the rite decision!!
brla dpt tido lena malam tuh..hehe..

decision yg susah tau..
lg susah dr nk jawab exam final..hehhehe.. (yolah tuh!!!)

after dh happy2, we went back to Gare du nord and bought our dinner at halal shop nearby..
siap tapau for my hubby and kids..

then borded Eurostar for 2 1/2 hours...

Tibelah di London dgn hati berbunga2....

HOT: London Secret Sample Sale!!

Hiyaaa!! I'm back!! Can't wait to blog bout this..hehe..
My adrenaline rushed with full speed!!
Ok as mentioned..I went to the sample sale..Well actually been to one of the sample sale before exactly on the same street in East London last year..but the stuffs sold were not European brands..It was Designer UK's sample sale..
But this one..totally different!! AWESOME!!!

In the morning, dropped by at school to attend a meeting..then without any delays..I rushed to Aldgate East (which was the nearest station). Actually I was kinda early..it's around 11.45 am..I knew that door would be opened at 2pm..but I dun wanna be late..It's sample sale!! (cheh..ni influenced by Becky la nih!!ngeh ngeh..)
And thanks to my iphone GPS for the exact direction..(that's why I loved it very much..very precious..never let me down!)

Ok since I was early..nobody's waited in front of the door..(wat the hell??Am I at rite place?) tp mmg confirm coz ade big banner..Ok nvmd maybe I was extremely early!!
So I waited patiently in front of the door in freezing, chilly, rainy day..just for this sale!!
dah la all of my friends were not free today..huhu..so ended up alone..:(
Boring!!But still...when I imagined what could be inside the building..I was excited..sorang pun sorang la...

at 1.30 pm..people started to queue..me?mmg dh lama tercongok kt situ..siap sume staff yg kuar masuk sengih2 tgk me terkulat2 kt depan pintu..but i witnessed the rails with clothes being pushed inside the lot..and I was the unofficial receptionist kt depan pintu coz org heran pintu die tak bukak and tanye me..kak oii..kan dh tulih dlm invitation start at 2..tak baca ke??hehe..but I enjoyed it myself..ingatkan diorang nk tunggu sama2..tp sume blah..kate nk dtg balik..lantak la korang..untung gak..so that I could be the first to enter!!
Org UK ni tak suka tunggu kt tempat tu awal2 kot? lgpun mmg sejuk giler hari ni..Plus hujan kejap..nasib dh prepare everything including umbrella..Shopaholic la kan!!
Kt Msia dulu me penah gi queue for Sex and The City Premiere tickets..Guess what..4 jam before counter bukak dh start queue!!siap boleh buat kawan lagi!!dr berdiri sampai terduduk and bersila kt The Gardens nk dpt tiket..
penah gak queue for Clarks sale and other perfumes sale kt hotel!!sume dh start queue awal2..
Sample sale in UK??tak sama kot!!whatever!!


At 2pm..the doors opened...

so me proudly stepped into The London Secret Sample Sale as the first person ever!!Couldn't believe it myself!! Sale sebesar ni jadi org first??mmg semangat btul..hehe..

Orait..lets see the pics that i managed to capture..inside..only purse and phones allowed..no camera..

This is the lot for the sale..Big Banner lagi..Secret apenye??

Actually Bricklane is located in East London..It's famous with the oldest market..Bricklane market and also the other nearby Petticoat lane market on Sunday..
But there are loads of blacks in this area so I would say you must be careful!
I've been here before, so I recognized the place..but for those who are unfamiliar..please kepit ur handbags tightly!!
Just a friendly reminder for the next sample sale..hehe..

some of the views in Bricklane..

Kt tepi pintu ni la me duk tercongok for 2 hours 15 minutes as unofficial receptionist...nasib tader meja kecik..boleh amik attendance lagi!!

Aksi boring sebab dh kul satu, still tader org queue!!

inside..kene bayar 1 pound and showed member pass..tanggal sume coat and handbag..
the first section that I serbu was handbags and shoes..
Yellow boxes tu sume Fendi..Black boxes Dolce & Gabbana..
brand lain: Dior, Jimmy Choo, Miu Miu & Gucci..
best giler!!cantik2 sumenye..(price lebey kurang mase boxing day!)

This is one of the bags rails..

byk gak Fendi bags..but as I told before..I'm broke..tak cukup duit la nk beli beg2 ituh!!Owh..:(
Other bags: Chloe, Dior, Tods, Prada, Burberry, Miu Miu, Gucci, D&G..

ade accessories by Vivienne Westwood..I wished i could buy the jewelleries!! it's stunning!!:(

Price wise? menarik gak..but one of my friend yg minat miu2 ade keje..so I surveyed for her..ade la 4 bijik Patchwork multicolour bag..but in less than 1 hour tinggal satu jek!! so do other bags...
actually diorang boleh hold for 1 hour je..
so before barang2 ku dikebas..me paid for the stuffs first before went into clothing sections..
Bills???Scary!!

after i'd secured my stuffs..baru la aman nk belek2 baju..
byk giler..tak ingat la brand nye..but some of them were Vivienne Westwood, DVB jeans, Antik Batik, Totem, Kodomo and etc..cantik2!! tinggal poket je tak cantik!!

ni br satu row..ade brp row tah??giler!!!
after about an hour later, i've finished with my last purchase..
3 tops..2 of them from Brazilian Designer!!

.
.
.
.
.

My Harvests....

1st item..

as usual..shoe la..tak blh nk avoid la..
Gucci monogram leather pumps in maroon...my fave colour!!
Luv it!!!









2nd item..



Gucci purse..

3rd item..



Gucci monogram sling bag..
(kecik je..tu je yg termampu!!)
:(

actually dh hold another Gucci make up case with purple leather trimmings..
but u know...sob*sob*


My tops

Totem 2 and Komodo..

The two left are hand printed fabric (Brazilian design)..kt sini susah sket nk dapat material camni..sbb sejuk org tak pakai sgt..byk knitwear..
tp menyesal tak beli one top by Antik batik..
bile pegi a few minutes back..dh lesap!!
owhh..

after last payment..challo balik umah..
I'm speechless!!!
the best part was..most of the staffs recognized me as the first person out there!!
Am I A Girl in The Green Scarf??
London version kot!!!hehe...

and balik umah br realized sume Gucci..Why??
nk balas dendam kot coz mase boxing day tak dpt nk jenguk Gucci langsung!!queue panjang gilerrr!!!

as for summary..I will definitely go for their sample sale again..dh register as member and mesti dpt invitation after this..
Brands sold were marvellous!!
ade juga local brands for accessories and lingeries..but me had no time for that..hehe..
so for all other Londoner..keep waiting!!and maybe next time we can go together!!
baru boley posing byk2..hehe..


orait..i think that's it..till then..tata..wanna sleep happily!!
