Chicken soup for the soul

And the sick :( Had a bad sorethroat on Monday after having Korean bbq on Sunday. Was kinda asking for it I guess. Had the worst chills at night, feeling hot and cold. I used to fall sick more often but was much better the last year or so. Feeling much better today except for the throat which still hurts.

Anyway, on to happier stuff! Nothing beats a little retail therapy to brighten the mood. Most of you have heard of ShopBop. I got my Tory Burch Roslyn Zip Continental Wallet from there and their shipping time is arguably one of the best amongst online retailers. They offer free express shipping with orders over $100 or a $10 postage fee with orders under $100. Both includes tracking service so you can ensure your items are in good hands.

Here are some fabulous finds for 70 percent off. However as these are final sale prices, returns are not allowed.

Happy 4th of July

I hope all of you are having a great day! Today I'll be talking about my Marc by Marc Jacobs obsession. MBMJ is a diffusion line of Marc Jacobs and I've only recently taken more notice of them because their cross-body sling bags are SO comfortable and the leather is soft yet durable. Also, I bought a pair of MGMJ sunglasses and I think I've lost it :( Hopefully it's around the house somewhere and it'll turn up eventually. When I saw the range of colours available for the MBMJ Classic Q Natasha bag, I almost died. There's a few other gorgeous colours but I got the navy at Club 21 in Bangkok, Thailand cos they only had it in that colour, black, purple and red, which were decent but I have way too many black bags and I wasn't feeling the purple and red. My MBMJ craze is definitely not ending here.. 

Exam anxiety

2 weeks to go til my exams. Not looking forward to my accounting principles paper. Only thing I'm excited about is the month long break after exams. I have lots of sleep to catch up on. Good thing though is that the weather over the past few days has been pleasant. Sun has been out, wind wasn't too strong, totally my kind of winter day. On a sidenote, I haven't been shopping at all for quite some time and my fingers are itching. There's so many sales going on at the moment but e-shopping is still my preference. Love getting my purchases delivered, its like X'mas all over hehe. Below are my favourites from Revolve Clothing.
