Haul from Hong Kong and HK Disneyland
Here are the things I bought from my weekend in HK and HKDL (stands for Hong Kong DisneyLand).
I didn't expect I would buy so many!
Things in Hong Kong are so cheap! Max *heart*!
Here's a breakdown of my haul.
Four H&M dresses - two maxi dresses, one babydoll and one beach dress.
Have I mentioned how much I just adore H&M already?
Got a Biotherm Cleanser at RM56 ringgit. CHEAP! Though I have a full bottle but there's nothing wrong with stocking up one more since I do use the product. They're selling it here for RM80? RM90?
The sales lady at Sasa also convinced me to buy this Suisse Programme from Switzerland eye gel cream. It's for hydration and anti-wrinkle and comes at a steep price of RM150, should be even more expensive here in Malaysia.
I heard a lot about Suisse but never used them before. Anyone can give some feedback on this brand?
Some Hong Kong friends I met told me they've stopped using Japan products because of the radiation, so I'm considering switching to European brand right after finishing my SK-II and Hada Labo.
Bought a Mickey magic hat that lights at night. lol.
And a Minnie sun-cap. I *heart* Minnie, more than any of the princess characters to be honest.
Some Disneyland keychains.
They're so cute! Comes at RM24 - RM40 per set.
I got for myself.
And this for my bestie Wendy.
From HKDL I also bought this uber cute Chip & Dale umbrella.
two sides.
It's a tiny umbrella that can only fit one person in it, I think it's actually made for children. But who cares, I like it.
Popteen magazine. *love*
A coca-cola can for Wendy again to add to her mountaneous collection of coca-cola drinks all over the world through the time.
I should blog about that one day.
Two boxes of Wing Wah's famous wife cakes. Yum.
I think I blogged about these biscuits/cakes before.
Another reason to love Hong Kong.
And lastly,
My Dear Diary Masks.
They're so cheap there!
And they're even cheaper in Taiwan.
I got two big boxes with 34 masks inside, and one small box with 10 masks inside. If I use it twice a week, this supply can last me for 10 months~! Muahahaha!
The big box sells for RM60 in HK, whereas they're selling for RM128 in Guardian, Malaysia.
Imagine that, an average of RM1.80 per piece! CHEAP!
Total damage: I rather not calculate. La~la~la~
Remember my Judith Leiber sunnies I bought?
Well I promised to post a photo of me wearing it, so here it is.
Ta-da!
Nice or not, nice or not, nice or not? Tell me nice else don't say anything.
Muaks!
Kirsten Dunst likes her imperfections
Hollywood actress Kirsten Dunst loves her imperfections and would never change them. The Melancholia star told British newspaper the Daily Mail: “I like imperfections. People have said lots of times, ‘Why don’t you fix your teeth?’ For me, the people I respect are like, ‘Don’t ever fix your teeth!’ “So the aesthetic I migrate to is not the mainstream aesthetic. I think that it’s difficult to grow up going to the films where things are so perfect and that’s the idea of a movie star, too. “You see the star up there and a line or a pimple has been digitally removed so you look, well, perfect.” She says even her mother Inez, had previously told her to wear make-up to cover her lips. The 29 year-old added: “My mother’s like, ‘Your lips are pale, wear some red lipstick!’ So when we go out to dinner, I’ll put on the damned red lipstick for her.”
Christopher Knight Adrianne Curry Divorce
A Very Brady Divorce! After five years of marriage, a reality show, and a host of public displays of affection on Twitter, former Brady Kid Christopher Knight and Adrianne Curry, the first winner of Tyra Banks’ America’s Next Top Model reality competition, are calling time on their unlikely romance.
“After starting a relationship with what seemed to be irreconcilable differences, the couple has reached a period where those differences are no longer appreciated,” Phil Viardo, the couple’s longtime manager said over the weekend. “The decision was mutually reached after it became clear to both that some perspective was needed in order to assess their unique union… They still love one another but need some distance to consider their future,” he added.
Knight, 53, fell in love with the acid-tongued Curry, now 28, while the two were housemates on the defunct VH1 reality series The Surreal Life. After announcing their engagement on the show’s season finale, the newlyweds nabbed their own spinoff series, My Fair Brady, which documented their wedding and first year of marriage.

Hince’s band The Kills will be playing at the show.

This is the first marriage for both Candice, 24, and Tony, who previously dated singers Carrie Underwood and Jessica Simpson. The newlyweds met and began dating shortly after Romo’s split from Simpson in July 2009, after two years together. Jessica is now engaged to former NFL star Eric Johnson.

After partying with nearly 600 guests, the newlyweds made a grand exit in a classic Cadillac.
Snooki Detained In Italy After Collision With Police Cruiser
Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi got into a car accident — with the Italian police. So much for keeping a low profile!
The pint-sized star of MTV’s reality series Jersey Shore was taken into police custody in the Italian city of Florence on Monday after cops say she rear-ended a patrol car in front of dozens of witnesses. Snooks and the rest of The Shore Gang — including Vinny, Ronnie, Sammi, and The Sitch — are in town taping scenes for the fourth season of Jersey Shore…much to the displeasure of the local government. Officials in Florence had already banned the MTV production from shooting at some of the most famous locations in the Renaissance city (including the renowned Uffizi gallery and the sculpture-filled Boboli Gardens) and drinking in public before Snooki’s car ended up wedged between the cruiser and a highway wall.
Her Shore costar Jenni “J-Woww” Farley was riding shotgun when the crash occurred. She reportedly had to exit the car through a window because the door was blocked by the wall.

Shahid Kapoor Headlining Mausam Release Delayed
The release of Shahid Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor headlining love story Mausam is likely to be delayed in order to avoid a fratricidal clash with Ajay Devgan's cop thriller Singham.
Both the films are currently scheduled to hit screens on July 22.
A source close to the production team tells Sawfnews.com that Mausam producers have suddenly developed cold feet over the prospect of taking on Singham.
"Mausam was to clash with Singham, but the first rushes and promo of Singham have got rave reviews within the industry making Mausam makers question the wisdom of clashing with Rohit Shetty's action flick."
The Singham trailer has wowed one and all. It begins with Ajay Devgan making an imposing entry amidst the recital of shloka and features edge of the seat action.
"The action scenes leave one speechless and makes one go numb...the car explosion and Ajay Devgn's punch scene gives one goose bumps," a source who has seen the promo tells Sawfnews.com.
Mausam marks the directorial debut of Shahid's father Pankaj Kapur who has also penned the film's script. Shahid and Pankaj are invested in the film, both financially and emotionally.
Pankaj says he took three years to think and plan the script and 6 months to physically write it.
Filming began in June 2010 and wrapped up on May 25. Shahid dedicated the entire year to the film.

She said, "I can't remember a time where I really battled with my body, but I can remember being asked to lose weight and battling with the advice.
"When I started out, I was definitely heavier. I was quite voluptuous in fact. I had a real baby face and baby fat.” She added, "But I was a baby! I was told I had to get into better shape, but I'm quite stubborn so I didn't."
"I don't just work out to stay slim, I work out because it takes a lot to be on a plane and be jet-lagged all the time. Same with being on a film set for months."

According to a source, the couple have had a series of fights and are struggling to balance family life and their busy careers, reports dailymail.co.uk.
The singer also hinted at the strains in a few messages on Twitter.
“Never chase love. If it isn`t given freely by another person, it`s not worth having,” she posted.
In another message, she wrote: “Forgiving someone does not mean forgetting what they did. It simply means letting go of the hurt.”
Smith, who is also a former rugby player, also hinted at trouble in their paradise.
“You don`t know what you`ve got til it`s gone.”
However, the posts were deleted later.
The reason behind the fights happens to be Minogue`s career, and her lack of focus on their son Ethan, who turns one in July.
“Kris is not happy about Dannii`s heavy work-load, and wants her to spend more time with him and baby Ethan, and has put his foot down,` a source told News of the World.

Dharmendra, Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol Turn Social
Dharmendra, Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol have jointly launched a Facebook page and YouTube channel - both simply titled 'the deols' - to reach out to their considerable fan base, buoyed by the success of their recent film Yamla Pagla Deewana
Their new endeavor embraces social media and has the strapping of a contemporary day digital media campaign, but it's not what you could call a media blitz. It's just old fashioned, warm hearted, reaching out to fans. Just plain talk, straight from the heart. Not intended to impress you, but just reach out to you.
If there is a wow factor in their campaign it is – Hey, these guys are real!
You might find the Deol's rooting in tradition heartwarming, but remember it comes as a package. In traditional social interaction some aspects of life are off limits.
As Dharmendra says in his endearing inaugural video post, there is a line that we must not transgress from either side.
