2019 Life Mantra: Use it or lose it

January 3, 2019 Paris B 24 Comments

If there’s one thing the internet has taught us, it is this – there’s always something newer, prettier and more fun coming around the corner. So, we snap up goodies we have our eye on now, but instead of enjoying them, we tuck them away in our drawers and crane our necks, peering into the distance, wondering if there might be something better out there to come.

2019 life mantra use it or lose it

Or we buy something expensive, or exclusive, and we hug it to ourself and say “I’ll keep it for a special occasion” as we gaze lovingly at it.

This was me. But it’s now 2019 and I have a new life mantra to live by.

My Experience with shopping online from overseas retailers for delivery to Malaysia : A definitive guide

December 21, 2018 Paris B 19 Comments

There is one question I am asked a lot when I talk about products or brands that are not readily available locally here in Malaysia. It is this – “Did you buy it online?” and usually the follow up questions will be “Is it safe? Did you get taxed?”

I have also noticed that many otherwise seasoned shoppers balk at shopping at overseas websites. They’d rather wait for it to be available locally, buy from a local website despite a mark up in price, or use a personal shopper/reseller, to save on the perceived hassle, or perhaps get instant gratification.

Nothing wrong with that, except when I’m told by these same people that they find it hard to shop online from overseas, because they’re afraid! Well, there’s no need to be!

shopping online for delivery to malaysia - a guide

I was a little slow off the starting blocks with online shopping back in the day. Then, many websites did not ship to Malaysia, and it was very frustrating. Today, most do, with the odd exception. 

I have become quite an avid online shopper. But I am very careful with what I buy and where I buy it from. And because I get so many questions, I thought it would be helpful to share my experiences and tips for a more painless shopping experience 🙂

I started writing this, thinking it would be quick and easy, only to realize after a spell that it was a lot bigger than it looks LOL! 😀 So, suffice to say, settle right in with a cup of your favourite beverage and maybe some sustenance. Even take a few days if you like 😛

Your Say: Can the colour of your wallet affect your spending habits?

December 5, 2018 Paris B 28 Comments

Can the colour of your wallet affect your spending habits?

This is something quite interesting to think about, prompted by something said to me quite recently, in good fun of course. But still, as they say, there’s no smoke without fire and there could be a grain of truth (or not) in some beliefs.

red wallet make you spend more money

A month or so ago, I shared on Instagram Stories, that I was finally swapping out my wallet of 5 years for a new one. I’d gotten the red Miu Miu Matelassé Leather wallet a while ago, and felt that it was time to put it to use.

What amused me was how many people dropped me a message to say that I should be careful because a red wallet is supposed to cause you to spend more money! Hmm… did I want to be spending more money?! 😀

Whether you’ve been Naughty or Nice there is a Lilin + Co Christmas Candle with your name on it

November 30, 2018 Paris B 2 Comments

Some days, you trot out your Diptyque and Jo Malone scented candles. On other days, you luxuriate in a beautiful scented room, without having to sell an organ or a limb LOL! I can safely say that one of the better locally made, affordable soy scented candles I’ve encountered to date is by Lilin + Co. I’d told you about them before this so you can have a little read.

lilin + co naughty nice christmas candles

I recently met the owner at a local bazaar, where she (I believe) took a chance to call out to me, and we had a nice short chat. It’s always nice putting faces to names in email! 😀 They do sell at the artisanal bazaars around the Klang Valley like Riuh, so keep a lookout for them, if you go there. You can have a sniff at the candles, so you know what to expect.

Not long after, she offered for me to try their special edition Lilin + Co Naughty or Nice Christmas candles. and I must say that they are quite lovely! Lilin + Co have also kindly offered a discount code, so if you still need to finish off your Christmas shopping, or just want to buy something nice for yourself to help you cope with the year-end stress (I often feel more stressed and frazzled at the year end than at any other time of year!) this is your chance! 😉
