I was just looking at watches yesterday as I am thinking about getting a new watch. My watches have died lately; they seem to use up batteries so quickly that I am afraid to spend any more money on batteries. I might just get a new one to solve my problem. Now speaking of watches, I heard Rolex watches are one of the best brands that offer quality and well designed watches. I recently had a look at this website: www.bestoftime.com and I found some that I really like but only if I have the money to afford them. They are more for people with lots of money to spare, who can afford to spend thousands of dollars on a watch. I am sure that website is really popular with the rich and famous people. You can save money since you are buying from an independent dealer. The low markup makes you save money without a doubt. You should check out the website for more information if you are interested. There is a huge selection of Rolex watches there for both men and women. It is the website perfect for buying great gifts.

I shop and shop all the time this is why I often run out of money before payday. What thrills me is when I find a clearance sale. I get really excited because I get to buy a lot of new stuff at discount prices. In fact that is all I look for when I go shopping; the clearance sale. Although I am a bargain shopper, that I hit the deals, I don't really get to save money yet since I always end up buying too much. I will have to get a hold of myself someday; control my spending...LOL. I am becoming shopaholic as I couldn't pass up a sale. However, with all the things I bought I could turn around someday and start a business by selling them online for profits. I plan to have an online business someday when I have time to look into it. I need a stable income if I don't get a job. At least I can go to school at the same time when I am operating an online business. I am only talking about a small independently owned business for my sideline. Okay, this is all for now. I thought I'd take a test about what type of shopper I am. It's true that I don't necessarily care about buying designer stuff unless I find a sale and that I happened to like an item. I am for what is a comfortable and stylish designed item and not by how pricey it is just so show off to people that I buy designer stuff.

You Are a Discount Shopper

You love to get things as cheaply as possible. You live for sales. It's partially because you like to save money, but it's also because you like the thrill of finding a fabulous deal. Of all the types, you tend to shop frequently but rarely by. You keep an eye on prices. Brand names are not that important to you. You know how to have style without collecting designer tags.

My younger brother recently tied the knot and my mother thought we had to spend a lot of money for the wedding dress, too, as it is always very costly-being pricey. Well, fortunately we did not have to, because my brother's girlfriend knew of somebody who could help her out with lending her the wedding dress-she was in luck. Anyway, I want to talk about bridal dresses here and you know if you happened to be looking for a bridal dress, I have a website to recommend to you. It is where you can find the best bridal prices, which will save you money for sure. Why spend more when you don't have to, right? Getting married is not cheap therefore it is important that you take time to look for every opportunity to save money...especially when we talk about doing it in this weakened economy. If you don't have the time to go all over the place, you can browse the net just like with the website I am talking about here for your bridal dress/gown. Ah, speaking of bridal dresses, I happened to find the wedding dress that my friends and I talked about what I should wear on my wedding when I met my husband. The style and design of the wedding dress I have here speaks for what we had in mind. But then it's too bad that I did not get my white wedding wish-if to say we got married in my homeland that is. Perhaps we can renew our vows and I will still get to wear a wedding dress that is as beautiful.

I am one of the many people that sometimes even if I go to bed early I just couldn't sleep until the wee hours. Well, that caused my eyes to have dark circles and bags. So what I usually do is try to cover up the dark areas with a good foundation, only it doesn't always work and I find it such a hassle. I don't like doing that and I would rather find a cream, which will help make them go away. I have surf the net for other ways to make me look like I am well rested by making sure my eyes don't have dark circle and bags and some of the home remedies are not really effective. However, I found a website: www.eyecreamreview.net where there are helpful reviews on products that can help improve the look of the eye area, including wrinkles, dark circles and bags. It is a really helpful website because consumers like me can learn a lot from it in terms of what works and what the professionals recommend. We don't have to suffer from a really bad day of dark puffy eye bags if there is a solution. If you are looking to solve your problem, this eye cream review might help you. It has a lot of information to offer you including which eye cream is right for your type of problem. You can even find out what you can get for wrinkles around your eyes if you are one who has wrinkles to worry about.

I have heard that yoga or meditation is best when you are experiencing a difficult time. I mean if life has not been easy for you, you should see about meditating because usually people try to meditate to ease off their problems. Also if you are someone who is over weight, yoga helps according to some people who have done that in order to lose weight. Now what would be the perfect tool to go with it? Well, I happened to find just what you would need if you are into yoga or meditation. You can get one of these Crystal Singing Bowls available in clear and frosted styles. You just take your pick, whichever suit your preference. Anyway, I would like one for myself especially the Spouting Bowls because it says, "I can rub my hands on the handles and it would create friction and vibration that causes the bowls to spout water like a fountain."...I think it is amazing. If I know someone who does yoga or some form of meditation exercise regimen, a crystal singing bowl would make perfect a gift. Mostly the celebrities are well known for doing yoga as their effective exercise regimen. I can't wait to try it someday.

My poor blog hasn't been updated here. I am a bit pre-occupied sometimes that I miss to make any updates. My news for today is nothing exciting really. I shopped and shop lately. I went out with my friends and shopped for birthday presents as we will be attending another birthday this week. There will be 2 birthday girls’ again-2 girls at a time for a grand celebration. The other week we celebrated 2 girls' birthdays and I had a picture at my other BLOG-you may visit my other blog to see it. I put the rest of the pictures at my Friendster photo album. We all had a good time. As for my shopping activities, I bought lots of new clothes, shoes and swimsuits for my girls. I also shopped for my sister Gemma as I have been meaning to send her a welcome gift. I am going to send her a package in the following days; I still have to go out later for some more stuff to send to her. I decided to include a couple pair of ballet flat shoes that did not fit me. They hurt my feet that I mangled a pair already-that is as you can see in the picture below. I was going to get rid of them by giving them to the Purple Heart but I think I will send them to my younger sister and let her try them on, first. What a waste it would be to just give them away if they might fit my sister whose feet are smaller than mine. Hopefully they are comfortable enough for her and she can use them; otherwise they will be thrown in the trash. I have to find other ballet flat shoes to see if I can find a pair that won't hurt my feet.

I don't really like borrowing money from my family and friends if I can help it, but sometimes I panic because I need money fast, so, of course, I have to swallow my pride. I actually hate having to do that and would rather get the money from a lending company...if only I can acquire cash as fast. Well, perhaps this No Fax Payday Loan can help me acquire for cash fast. I heard it works great because I can get cash within 24 hours through a direct deposit to my bank account. Now that is exactly what I need. I don't mind paying for the interest at all as long as I get it at times when I need it. I prefer to borrow money from a bank or lending company for convenience and to spare myself the embarrassment of having to harass anyone. At least when I borrow from a lending company, I don't have to worry so much that people might talk about how I have been such a bother to them, because I am paying for the interest. By the way, if you share my problem, you should see about these Pay Day Loans because there is a way for you to get money you need in case anything comes up or you run out of money before pay day. You can get a loan quickly because it requires no fax at all, which means there is no hassle involved and you get the money you need as fast as possible. It helps that applying for a loan is no longer a waiting game...especially in this bad economy.

I went to Wet Seal the other week to look around and fortunately I found a couple pair of nice sunglasses there. I wanted to actually go back there because that is where I found a pair of sunglasses that fit me, only I didn't buy it at the time until it was sold out. So I had to come back for more and thankfully I came on time to catch the new arrivals. I ended up buying 2 pairs. The other pair was the only pair left and I had to grab it since it looks fancy. I didn't spend a lot of money buying them since it was a buy 1 get 1 half off. What a deal...I thought. I didn't know it at first, so I went ahead with paying for a pair until the cashier said I can get another 1 for half its price and I did as might as well. Now I have 2 sunglasses. The only problem I have with any sunglasses or eyeglasses is that when they fall to the ground, they scratch easily. I hate to see damages on them. Anyway, since they are cheap I shouldn't worry about it. I can always get new ones. Okay let me share them here for kicks. They look fashionable and stylish...perfect for going out in the sun, indeed. In fact, as you can see; 1 is oversize and 1 if more for riding a moped...LOL-sorta nice for when it is windy and sunny outside. Okay, ciao!

We may be having a flu pandemic but for most people who are fashion forward, it is not a reason to not look good. Well, what I am talking about is someone came up with an idea to make wearing a mask fashionable and fun. If you want to make a fashion statement while at the same time still very much protected from breathing in the swine flu, you have got to get one of the fashionable respirator masks available only at the FLU FASHION website. Why bother wearing the ordinary plain looking mask when you can wear a fancy one without risking your health since you are protected just as good or even better. Just find out more about it and you will see. Click here to view mask designs and get one for your maximum protection yet stylish mask. From what I learned, those masks offer a much better protection because they are designed specifically for our maximum protection. Now, there you go, dare to be different and look good. And don't settle for less!

Until now I am in search for some unique and exotic home decors...especially from my homeland. I was actually hoping for my sister to find a good size sea shell hanging decoration when she was still in our homeland because I want one. My husband and I bought some but ended up giving them away as gifts. Now we have none and unfortunately my sister didn't find one like I had hoped. So, I am interested in finding some home decors that reminds me of home. No matter where we go, home is never a home unless it is filled with all the things we love in it. Most people stay true to their ethnic backgrounds and would always remember to bring something from their native country to their new home country. That is what I do and I am surprise to see these Ethnic Gifts available online. People should check them out because for sure they can find something they will like. As for me, I find the Hand Painted Kundan Marble Vase to be very gorgeous, indeed. It is also very affordable to have, being sold for only $48.00. I would like to have that for myself. As you can see below, the details are amazing, which is why I had to grab the picture. Cultural arts are definitely another way to remind us of home, our culture and heritage. They do make great gifts to friends from different ethnic backgrounds.

In my family, we all adore wearing either a cologne or perfume. However, with me I still haven't found the kind of perfume or cologne that I really like yet. I am looking for the certain smell and it is the smell of a flower that I used to smell on my way to school. It might have been a blooming jasmine or orchids. So, I am always searching for that particular smell whenever I shop for a cologne or perfume. I wish I can find it someday. I also consider a fresh smelling colognes or perfumes and so far I have a number of them in my collection. I don't go by who is endorsing a cologne or perfume; I go by its unique scent or smell. By the way, I found a website where I can shop for colognes and perfumes, perfect for gift giving. I enjoy giving my husband colognes (he prefers colognes) during the holidays when we exchange gifts, which we don't often do so if we are not willing to spend the money. Well, it seems that this site has cheaper prices and I would be glad to shop there. In fact, this chrome cologne looks very tempting for me to purchase. It sounds like it smells good and it would be great for my husband to try. The jasmine and gardenias combined sells it for me. I like those flowers a lot as I grow up smelling gardenias, right at my grandmother's front yard.

I felt guilty with not posting anything here longer than I have in the past. I won't even mention how long I have neglected this shopping blog of mine. Well, this is supposedly a blog where I can brag; I mean rub it in, but no, I am just kidding aside there...LOL! Did I get you? So, ok, I created this blog where I wanted to share what I have been doing when it comes to shopping, etc. Now just because I did not post anything it doesn't mean I don't have a lot to share. It is just that sometimes I don't feel like writing. My interest is fading...especially when I am not making a lot of money like I used to. Anyway, I bought lots of stuff for our spring and summer wear. I usually make my purchase when I catch a clearance sale and at least a 50% off, sale. I have lots of outfits for socializing...LOL! I also buy clothes for our next year wear simply because I don't like paying top dollar. I watch for the clearance sale all the time. One of the things I bought some time ago is a pair of summer thong slippers. They are fancy, more for walking around at the mall. Let me show you how cute they look. They are not rubber like those that can be worn to the beach.
