Gong Xi Fa Cai! Happy Lunar New Year!

January 22, 2012 Paris B 24 Comments

gong xi fa cai

Xin Nie Kuai Le! Gong Xi Fa Cai!

That’s me wishing all of you lovely readers a very Happy and Prosperous New Year! Well, tomorrow at any rate 🙂

Today, being the eve of the new year, is when we all return home to be with our families and enjoy the Reunion Dinner. The feasting starts tonight! 😀 Actually mine started yesterday because I came back earlier 😀  Tomorrow sees us welcoming in the Year of the Dragon with a leap and a bound and it would be interesting to see just how it will turn out for us all.

As is traditional at this time of year, MWS will be on hiatus while I go home and enjoy the festivities. In our part of the world, I know there is a long break on so if you are travelling, I wish you safe travels.

To everyone else celebrating the new Lunar year, I wish you Gong Xi Fa Cai and may the Dragon year bring you even more happiness, health and prosperity!

Be back soon… once the CNY cookies and tidbits run out… 😉

xoxo

Paris B

2022 – Hello World

Instagram @parisbmws – You don’t know what you’re missing

Popped out of my hermitage to visit the amazing Jo Popped out of my hermitage to visit the amazing Jo Malone installation at Mid Valley Megamall 😍 Jo Malone has always made gifting an experience, both for giver and receiver, and this is what their Jobots are here for - to help you find that perfect gift whether for a friend, family, or for yourself each time you manage to dodge the C-bullet 😆
Go check out the Jobots at Mid Valley Megamall Centre Court & experience their signature hand and arm massages, gift boxing, personalised engraving of your perfume bottles & candle jars & play with the vending machine. You could get lucky! 
No prizes for guessing which Jobot installation was my favourite! The one with the dog of course! They also had a key chain with a dog. So. Bloody. Cute!! 
And after so many years finally got a photo with event organizer extraordinaire @cyrus.chin because we didn’t get the white & beige memo and came instead in (unplanned) matching sunny coral instead 😂 
It felt good to have makeup on, dress up and go out for a tiny little bit, and meet people I haven’t seen in literally years! Also to enjoy the scents (hard to smell with a mask on though) and the visual delights. Go check it out. They’re there at the Centre Court until Sunday 3 July.

Not everyday I wear something decent (I still live in crummy t-shirt, shorts & sweaty athleisure most days) so it merited a photo! 😆 
I put on a full face of makeup today and when it came to my eyeshadow, I had a brain fart moment and forgot where they were! 😂 Looked through 3 drawers before I saw them and even then I thought “Did I ever have THIS MANY?!” I guess I do. And before you ask, yes they’re all expired 🫢
Wrote a bit this week. This is a brand new fave ♥️ www.mywomenstuff.com
