Elizabeth Arden 'Untold' Perfume



Not too long ago, Elizabeth Arden invited us to watch We're the Millers at GV Gold Class, Vivocity! It was my first time watching a movie in gold class so I was pretty excited. However, because Vivo is pretty far from my place and by the time Sarah and I reached the theatre, the movie had already started so we rushed in. It's been a looong time since I've seen babygirl Sarah and I'm so happy we got to catch up after! *hugs*

We were personally ushered to our luxurious red cushioned seats and before I could settle down, I was asked to to pick my choice of food -  Chicken briyani, mushroom quiche or fish and chips. I picked fish and chips without hesitation, eager to immerse myself in the movie. Then I had to pick choice of drink, whether I wanted coffee or tea after and was alerted that there would be dessert served at the end. When I thought my order taking was over, the waiter asked if I wanted salty, sweet or mixed popcorn! Halfway through I couldn't concentrate on what he was saying because I really wanted to focus on the movie. Guess that's what happens when you're late for a movie, will order in advance the next time!

Introducing... the family

We're the Millers was pretty comical and had its funny, tongue-in-cheek moments. It's about this guy David Clarke (I kept thinking of Revenge, if you watch the American drama) who is robbed of his savings and his drug stash, and has to smuggle drugs from Mexico to earn enough to cover his debt and make a hefty profit while he's at it. Fearing that he would look too suspicious alone, he asks his goody two shoes neighbour, Kenny, a runaway, Casey and convinces his stripper friend Rose (aka Jennifer Aniston) to come along to play the facade of a happy family. Of course, as they aren't actually related, trouble ensues.

Morale of the story is that Jennifer Aniston is hot and she's still got it even though she's... whatever age she is.


Anyway, the best thing about watching Gold Class is that you can talk to your partner next to you without whispering, can easily leave the theatre (eg toilet or phone call) with minimal disturbance, and those automated reclining seats are soooo awesome and incredibly comfy. Oh, and I wasn't cold at all because a blanket was also provided! However. the downside of having too amazing huge seats is that you're far away from your partner so there's no snuggling or cuddling possible. Guess horror shows aren't a good idea?


Was really happy to see the Elizabeth Arden girls - it's been too long -  and Tiphanie was due in a month!! Super elated and can't wait to see her adorable baby. When I said hello to her baby, Tiphanie said she was moving around! Hehe. Now Tiphanie has delivered her adorable baby girl so big congrats to Tiffy!

The movie event was to announce the launch of Elizabeth Arden's new fragrance, UNTOLD. 


“I wanted UNTOLD to be a harmonious balance of the many facets of a woman, which, for me, is the source of genuine beauty,” says Clement Gavarry, IFF perfumer. “I imagined her sometimes adventurous, sometimes romantic, yet always equally confident,” he adds.


I really like the bottle  because of its curvature and scent! The photos I took of the bottle aren't as nice as the press photos so I'll just use those instead.

Untold is made up of a combination of smells for the modern lady, it is -

  • Vibrant: Sparkling Pink Pepper fused with crisp Bergamot expose vibrant optimism and a joyful spirit.
  • Unpredictable: Playful, fruity accents of Pear and Blackcurrant Bud LMR* evoke unpredictable ways.
  • Refined: Delicate Gardenia petals and intoxicating Egyptian Jasmine LMR* reveal a romantic and sophisticated femininity.
  • Mysterious: Nuances of Patchouli Heart LMR* and Sandalwood hint at a mysterious aura.
  • Sensual: Heated Ambers cascade over the hypnotic Musk, unveiling magnetic sensuality

If you're thinking of a gift to give someone special or a girlfriend, do check this scent out.

Foxtrot's closing down sale!

I can never have enough heels, bags and accessories!! They seem to match SO many outfits and have a longer lifespan than most clothes. So when foxtrot told me about their closing down sale with some items going for 50% off, I just had to make a trip down!

With pretty Atsuko-chan who speaks really good English and arranged to meet me at the store! Was trying to practice my broken Japanese with her and she's so patient with me *_* If you're lucky on weekdays you'll be able to spot her around Raffles Place, hehe!

Foxtrot is located in Serangoon Gardens. Look out for a HUGE pink foxtrot sign, directly opposite Chomp Chomp food centre!!


Really liked the welcoming and girly atmosphere. Sometimes I fear going to the second storey of shophouses because you never know what might happen lol #paranoid



Foxtrot has a really wide range of shoes, from pretty flats, glamour heels, casual sandals to comfy platforms, all encased in a pretty ribboned shoebox. Their bags are made of fine quality leather and inspired by trends and styles from all over the world. 

In the short time I was there, they managed to sell so many bags!! It's no surprise because they're definitely a steal. Leather bags for $69, how could it not tempt you??? I was super tempted and went crazy just trying them on hehe. 

All heels are $39 with rubber sandals going at $19!! Plus some shoes have additional paddings on the balls of your feet for extra comfort! 


Bling bling evening shoes. Check out the crystals on this one. Definitely a head turner!

I absolutely LOVED these heels!!! Classy and unique, but I had no occasion to wear this to :(
Tried these ultra high heels and I felt half a head taller! Clothes are being sold for $10 - $19 too!

There's a full wall mirror so you can strut around in your heels before deciding if you want to get something :p

 
Love the flowers that add a splash of colour and texture!

  Oh, and get this. ALL accessories are $5 each!!

Many designs to choose from! Earrings, rings, necklaces etc!

Cute designs!

 Trying to decide between bags :$

Finally decided on this one! Don't have any mustard yellow bags at home and it's leather so it's very durable!

 Their shoeboxes are sooo pretty! Rings that I'm wearing are available for only $5 each!! If you're wondering what design these rings are, they're in a shape of a dressing table and a silver mirror :)


 They only accept CASH so please remember to bring extra ;)

Find Foxtrot at:
6A Kensington Park Road

  Sale ends on 31 October 2013 so be sure to check them out before everything is gone!!

 
Be warned though. Wearing Foxtrot shoes may cause an inexplicable sense of euphoria, up your chic factor and attract intermittent comments about your remarkable fashion sense. :p

Thanks Atsuko-chan and David for the introduction! I came out of the store with a gorgeous new bag and leather flats! :)

Goodbye Tsukiji Fish Market :(

Goodbye Tsukiji Fish Market.

According to Today,



"The city is planning to spend US$4.5 billion (S$5.7 billion) to relocate the market — nicknamed Tsukiji for the neighbourhood that surrounds it — to a modern, climate-controlled distribution centre on a man-made island in three years. The move is part of a broader face-lift Tokyo is planning before the 2020 Olympics.

Officials say they want to redevelop the market’s estimated 20 hectares of land, valued in the billions, into high-rise apartments and a tunnel that will connect Tokyo to the islands that will house new Olympic sites. "

It's really saddening to see it go. I've had amazingly fresh sushi there, sigh. Be sure to make a trip down before Tsukiji... well... isn't located in Tsukiji anymore. 



1 World Music Festival - cancelled

Wow, it seems like the raved 1 World Music Festival is cancelled, 3 days before show.

 

Wonder what happened to cause such a huge decision!
