Madly in love with these Proenza Schouler Mochila Wallets for Fall 2010, from US$145; PS1 style without the US$2,000 price tag! So tempted to buy one, except I am all shopped out for the rest of the year :)

Am really excited about a new online store discovery today – Sereni & Shentel – that I found via Zen’s blog. They’ve been around for a while, and I really wish I’d known about them sooner!
If I had to pick a favourite it’d be this one:
Bow Down Red
Love the nod to the Malaysian origins of this brand:
Kuching Cat Turquoise
For US$40 you can customise your own version of their cute Blair bands, which I assume is named after the notorious Gossip Girl!
Custom Blair
First, pick your base grosgrain ribbon colour, then these gems:
Best part is, they ship to Australia!

My Soak Republic package has finally arrived after some drama with the post office. Apparently it was sent back to Malaysia to be declared, and as a result took a whole month to get to me.. but the wait was worth it! I am now a happy owner of this adorable paper crane necklace.. and it actually looks better in real life!
They have plenty of cute things if you have time to browse, site navigation is a little messy and there isn’t an automated checkout system so you’ll have to email for a quote but it’s all legit! I’m not usually a fan of blog shops, but this one has great photographs and with a little patience there are some great deals at really good prices.

L-R: China Glaze Grape Juice, OPI Tease-y Does It, OPI You Don’t Know Jacques!, OPI Meet Me on the Star Ferry, OPI Ali’s Big Break, OPI Dusk Over Cairo, OPI Cosmo-not Tonight Honey, OPS Cozu-melted in the Sun, China Glaze Cream Puff, Seche Vite Top Coat and Base Coat.
I went a little crazy and bought all these new colours. They were incredibly cheap!
Seche Vite is the most amazing top coat I have ever used. My previous nail tech at Strip in Bangsar (KL) recommended it to me one day when I was going on a holiday, and it lasted the whole trip! It is touch dry in 30 seconds, goes over wet polish and has an incredible mirror finish. Only problem is, 2/3 through the bottle it gets a little thick, since it’s super fast drying, but a few drops of Seche restore takes care of that! I’m already on my third bottle..
If you do your own nails like me, there really isn’t a better top coat in the world! And under $5 on eBay :)
I also found this site – All Lacquered Up – which has really good swatches and was a great help buying nail polish online. OPI’s Meet me on the Star Ferry is my new favourite colour! Whats yours?
