Day 208

Day out with @ngjieling! Meant to take nice ootds, eat lunch and head to the Fayth office to collect my DW watch but it rained - The. Whole. Freaking. Day.

Finally queued for BAKE cheese tarts though! Albeit a few months late for this trend... We only queued about 10 minutes hehe.

I went to Warehouse to spend the gift card I won from their ootd contest, and I fell in love with this pair of culottes. It looks like the typical striped fabric that I keep seeing on a lot of culottes but it's in a more muted colour palette and I love this colour so much more? I really like it compared to the usual brown/black/white stripes. 😭

@briannawonggg is there anything similar coming up on TCL in this kind of stripes? 😂

Look how gorgeous it is? It fit perfectly too.

But $109 for a super thin pair of culottes with no lining... Nope. Can't even wear it in Canada because it's almost see through.

I got the Breton striped knit I'm wearing instead! $89 after my F3 membership. I do not understand Warehouse prices, not with their quality.

Time to trawl Taobao for this similar print I can't get over it. My heart said HELL YES but the brain (and jieling) said no. 😭

My first time trying BAKE.

And gosh I love it. 😳 The only other cheese tart I've eaten is the Breadtalk one. And after watching Hype Hunt on clicknetwork, it seemed like BAKE was overrated and not as nice? I actually really liked the Breadtalk one, except the crust was just too crumbly and it was impossible to hold and eat.

These tarts, though...😍

I love everything. The cheese is fluffy and sweet (Breadtalk's one seems slightly less sweet and more dense) and the crust is so perfectly non-crumbly. I hate crumbly crusts, they're such a mess.

I want more. Should have bought 12 😂

Had Itacho (again, I know) with @ngjieling because I can eat sushi everyday hehe. We ordered two of these rolls that were on offer - only about $6-7 per roll? Super worth it for sushi. I love Itacho lunch deals! (The weird sauce on the salmon was kind of weird.)

This spicy salmon crabstick roll tasted really good. It has these crispy little bits that taste like puffed rice cereal. 😛

Sadly my camera hasn't been cooperating with me and refuses to focus on anything.

Helped her snap an #ootd in the 1 minute we had before it started pouring again. 😒 Can I have those legs please?

Oh, and some spicy salmon egg roll. Eggggg. 😛

Went to the newly opened Sephora at ION and decided I need to own Naked 3. 😂 Ok not really because I keep buying eyeshadows and I really don't need more.

I'm probably going to go nuts buying eyeshadow in USA next month. 😭

#Carouhell:
I listed my RWB skirt for $25 and received this offer. It's BNWT and retails for $36. Ok to be fair, it's really not the worst "lowball" I've ever encountered but I just want to say that just because carousell is an anonymous selling site, doesn't give buyers a self-entitled right to haggle. You wouldn't walk into H&M and ask them to give you $5 off. I know it doesn't hurt to ask for slight negotiations for fast deals, but I also clearly stated "no meetups" as my first condition.😌

Bottom line is, don't negotiate a big discount and expect sellers to entertain you, and then say that you wouldn't have minded negotiating it higher. How about offering it at the price that people list it for? 🤔 Ok rant over, I'm really not actually that annoyed over it, so I feel a little bad for being rude-ish to the person. 😅
