the husband is a spendthrift!

or maybe not. you be the judge.

woke up bright & shiny on saturday morning. okay, not really. woke up to lunch brought back by hubbi again. :P after a hearty lunch, it was time to accompany hubbi to buy one of his most expensive & sought after purchase for the longest time.
as some of you would have known by now, hubbi is a watch fanatic since dont know when. and he is finally ready to take the plunge now with this Rolex GMT master II!


i can never understand why anyone would want to buy a Rolex & spend so much on a singular piece of accessory. but by now, i would have known, a watch is not merely a piece of accessory to him, but something larger than life. (just like LV is to me, heh).

have tried dissuading him previously through an array of ways. "your savings will plunge leh" doesnt appeal to the inner thrifty him. "buy a cheaper watch then you can save up faster for your next watch lah" doesnt appeal to the greedy him. "dont buy rolex lah, so old" cant find its way to the inner youthful him. "why dote on yourself only, buy something for me also lah" OBVIOUSLY fell on his deaf ears.

but i was glad that he bought it for he seemed genuinely happy & he had this gleeful (irritating) grin plastered on his face. still, i slowly start to appreciate the watch. the design DOES grow on you over time & its functions (shant bother to explain here) are really cool.

but again, do we really need to spend so much on a watch? so, i guess he's a spendthrift afterall. being broke and seeing him do retail therapy is not a good feeling. so i gotten him to get me a top from FOX! hehe. for those who have amex card, pls drop by FOX for 15% storewide (from now till end of mth i think).

so for now, the rolex is the centre of affection. flanked by his & my omega. *bleh*


tada! tried wearing opaque tights (from topshop) which seem to be the latest craze nowadays. sorry, if the photo below show little of it. its supposed to be this way cos my legs kinda look like lotus roots with it. lolz. and it DOESNT help that its texture is a little shiny.

only grace got to see it (apart from the husband) & is still alive after that. so grace: look like lotus roots hor? it may be some time before i dare to don it again. i need to slim down my legs!!

kinda into nail polish nowadays. been brushing on & wiping off nail color like nobody's business! tried the new color from the skin food (did i get the name wrong?) this sat night. the initial end result look really nice huh? just like what u got from a manicure. im a genius!

but alas, i assumed its dried too soon and the next day, my nails have some scratches on it. bleh.
guess i will re-do end of the week if i'm in the mood. :P


anyway, didnt get to see my fav. peanut butter baby this sunday. but still get to see ah long's the other nephew. he is very very cute too. look at those eyes! *wowwee*

and lastly, the other baby of mine! mimicking the poster and posing for me! hiaks.
