My Servicable and Pretty Lunch Tote

August 23, 2009 Paris B 28 Comments

A while ago, I bemoaned the fact that I could never get pretty lunch totes here like the ones I saw online. I persevered with my natty paper bag until one day I came across a promotion at Isetan.

lunch bag

Here’s the lunch tote complete with lunch boxes, which I ended up with!

The brand is Lock & Lock and you might be familiar with the storage containers that lock on 4 sides. Lock & Lock is now my food storage container of choice especially for packing lunches!

They don’t spill, there’s no smell, the size I got is just nice – 1 long box, a box with 3 partitions and a water bottle all in a lovely bright red insulated bag that keeps my food warm till lunch. Here’s how it looks when filled. Oh did I mention it came with a fork and spoon too? 😀 I love it. I think it cost me RM50+ after discount but Isetan usually has offers for lunch boxes in a bag of various sizes so you can find one to suit your needs and appetite. Oh don’t be fooled by the size – you can pack a LOT of food into these! 😀 I’m always having to rack my brains to figure out what to fill them up with.

I’ve fallen off the lunch bandwagon a bit since things got a bit unpredictable around lunch time at the office, but I’m going to get back to packing lunch soon. Its healthier and better for my waistline 😛

Do you carry your own lunch to work? Do you use a specific set of lunch boxes?

Stay beautiful,

Paris B

Saturday Rant, Freshlook contact lenses, Dior Serum de Rouge and YSL and L’Occitane deals to seal the weekend

August 22, 2009 Paris B 13 Comments

saturday thoughts

How quickly the week flies by! Here we are on a Saturday again – Whew! Was it just last week I was choosing a new car? hehe…

First up though, a little rant. You may be seeing more obtrusive watermarks happening on future pictures/photos here on My Women Stuff. Some older pictures (and even text!) were stolen and my watermark chopped off purportedly to advertise a product. If you see local blogs selling bag organizers with a picture of a messy bag and the text “Where in the world is my phone??” on it, the picture is mine and it was from my post about bag organizers. I’m going to seek a portion of profits if it doesn’t get taken down 😛

So, here’s fair warning to all readers about future pictures and I’m sorry if the watermarks spoil your viewing pleasure – I hope you don’t run away because of that 😀 Props to Nancy Drew Kahani for alerting me to the theft via Twitter so I knew immediately!

Now, onto happier things. I’m experimenting with some Freshlook coloured contact lenses this weekend. I’ve never really worn coloured contacts so it’ll be interesting to see if anyone notices or if its become the norm to have blue eyes 🙂

Review: YSL Golden Gloss #4 – Glossy Shiny Goodness!

August 21, 2009 Paris B 6 Comments

At the last YSL sale I went to, I picked up the YSL Golden Gloss #4. It was impetuous but I’m happy with my purchase.

YSL Golden Gloss

The gloss comes in a square tube – good to prevent it rolling around I guess. Its also quite a small tube in length compared to many other glosses. However, size does not matter, its how it performs … or have you heard that one already? 😛

I like that the applicator is a compact brush that does not splay. All hail brush gloss applicators! This is the reason I love the Guerlain Kiss Kiss glosses too. Brush applicators rock! Ahem…

It took me a while to choose the colour because I only wanted one so I ended up with #4 which is a cool toned rose red with lots of gold glitter. I say glitter because its coarser than shimmer but yet, it isn’t chunky glitter so it wasn’t too bad. I’ve got a swatch after the jump.

Ask & Answer : How do you deal with very oily hair?

August 21, 2009 Paris B 14 Comments

ask us!

Reader Vivian emailed me to ask me about oily hair, and I was at a bit of a loss as to how to respond because I don’t have oily hair. So, I thought we could all chip in with some bits of advice 🙂 Here’s her query:

I have really really oily hair. Currently using schwarzkopf deep cleansing shampoo but my hair still oily as ever. Really have no idea what to do with it. Do u have any suggestion?

Well, here’s what I suggested to Vivian to do, based on what little I know about managing oily hair.

Wash your hair everyday

We live in the tropics where its hot and humid and the weather can exacerbate a oily hair condition. I’d suggest washing your hair everyday with a shampoo meant for oily hair. Make sure you get the shampoo right onto your scalp to properly clean it because sometimes we sweat and the sebum can make hair look greasy and lank. Also, always make sure that you rinse out shampoo properly so there’s no build up. I wash my hair everyday but thats from choice and personal comfort 🙂
