Shopping! Shopping! Shopping!

I always always love a good excuse to shop!

And what better excuse to shop would be for our upcoming trip to the US. I am pretty excited about The trip. Its the first time going to the States, and i just can't wait. We are heading to San Francisco, Las Vegas, Grand Canyon and Disneyland and Universal Studios at Orange County. Its going to be winter there, and the temperature is going to be in the range of 7 to 15 degrees. We have been checking out some places for winter clothing, and they are pretty expensive. And so, I have been busy shopping online!

Oh my, the options are endless! I got this for Nic. Cute, isn't it? I got this brand new Gymboree jacket from ebay for about $50+ with postage. Something similar would have cost $199 at ColdWear!!
I just got myself a pair of boots today - a perfect pair without heels. Sigh...I really do miss wearing heels, but oh well, its a small price to pay. I am currently looking for some warm leggings, long sleeve tees, beanies, scarves and gloves for Nic.

Sigh...I wish I could still fit into those winter clothing that I had worn when I visited my friends studying in London then. I was in my youthful twenties than, and had bought myself a tweed trench coat from Mango, a faux leather trench coat from some Indie brand, knee length boots, etc. Unfortunately the faux leather trench and boots have become mouldy and gross and have since been disposed. And as for the tweed trench coat, it doesn't fit anymore. Too fat, cannot button, and so cannot keep myself warm :( And whats left of them are just photo memories...

Anyway, I guess I will be snooping around Ebay for some more deals.

Well...counting down the days till it happen

So fun! I love ebay coz they have such great deals there, except for one unpleasant experience for me. Don't go overboard too, coz you ARE going to the States and those American brands like GAP, Old Navy are cheap too!
