Bath & Body Works X Blues

Bath & Body Works

Bath & Body Works is an American Retail store which was founded in 1990. It specializes in shower gels, lotions, fragrance mists, perfumes, candles, and home fragrances. Initially it was only in the US and then it expanded to Canada and so on and now Singapore. If I am not wrong, they opened 2 stores this year. One in Marina Bay Sands and the other at Takashimaya.

I only heard about this brand 2 years ago. I received 2 pretty bottles of lotions for my 16th birthday. They were from Bath & Body Works and I LOVE them A LOT!!!!

I also like Body Shop and all, but to be honest, I prefer body shop for other things. Like the well known tea tree oil, exfoliating scrubs, the sponges for back scrubs and my FAV would actually be their LIP BALMS & SHOWER GELS!!!! I am sooo in love with their shower gels. Especially the strawberry one. That is purely heaven on earth! 

However, we all know how moisturizing is important. When it comes to lotions, ever since my 16th birthday, I told myself that I am so gonna find a way to get my hands on a bunch of new ones from Bath & Body Works when I have the money of course. 

What I didn't know was that it would be so unexpected!!!!

Here's how the story goes....

On Thursday, 16 Sep, I was supposed to be going for casting for the Digital Fashion Week. Unfortunately, through email, I didn't make the cut for the pre-casting selection. I really would love to do runways and I hope that I will have the opportunities to do many others in the future.

*Fingers Kept Crossed*

It has been a while and school was about to start anyway. I needed some final therapy and what better way than to shop?! Hehe

Thing was, I have been saving up a lot not for splurging and all. Money is being saved for reasons I rather not share here. Those who are really close to me will know why. Moving on, I went to window shop anyway. I felt like hitting town one last time. I went over to Orchard alone to window shop. I only brought $12 with me. As sad as it may sound, like I said, shopping is a form of therapy. You can never go wrong with it. Although to be honest, shopping is way more fun when with company and who else other than BFF to call it the PERFECT SHOPPING DAY!

Before I begin, a girl ALWAYS has time to camwhore before "therapy" session... hehehe

Anyway, this time round I went alone and I bumped into an old friend. She was really rushing and I didn't even manage to take a picture with her. Apparently, she had a few more hours before her flight to Netherlands and she was doing some last minute shopping. She handed me a voucher. Guess what is it?! $50 Bath & Body Works!!! I was surprised thinking why would she give hers to me. 

Apparently, you can only use one voucher per transaction and she used hers and was left with this. Also, she had no more time to wait for another day to use it and so on. The fact that she was in a rush, made her just give me a quick bear hug and also the voucher before she literally scurried away with like 8 shopping bags!!!!!!

I was just thinking to myself how lucky I was. I went to Orchard to window shop and ended up shopping because of this. Best part, as mentioned earlier, there's one outlet at Takashimaya and I was at Wisma. It was just beside me!

My luck didn't end there. I head down and saw something that would make EVERY girl smile...

SALE!!!

At Bath & Body works, the 6.5 oz body lotion used to be $22 but now it is $20. There was a promotion. It was buy 3 products and get 1 free. Which means pay $60 to get $80 worth of item. 

I used my $50 voucher and had to pay $10 for $80 worth of lotion!!!!

After this, I didn't felt the need to window shop anymore. I took the train home and with my remaining 2 bucks, got myself Chicken Rice from Ananas Cafe.

It was really a GREAT Thursday!!!!

These are my lotions...They smell ULTRA heavenly. I had like about 6-7 favs but had to narrow it down to 4 and totally no regrets as to me they were the best!

Even the paper bag looked cute!

Be it Shower Gel, Perfume, Body Mist or Lotions, I am someone who prefer something sweet, light, and fruity.

Blues

On Friday, I had a day camp with the fellow SOH Ambassadors and then a meeting session with SAA.

The camp was fun mainly cuz I finally watched Captain America 2 and I must say it's AMAZING!!!! I actually preferred this to the first one..actually I don't really know. I like them both. Also, I had 4 slices of pizzas, all different flavors from Sarpino's. Yup, I really pigged out!!!!

The reason why I labelled this blues was because, coincidentally, I wore blue the next day too. So.. yea.

This time round, I paired it with my skirt inspired by a trench coat that I got as a gift which I am soooo MADLY IN LOVE WITH! It's so flowy, and chic and what not to love?!

Today is a Saturday and it's already 7.30pm! I cannot believe that the 6 weeks of holidays passed by this quickly. Well, Monday school will start and the rest of October and even the first 2 weeks or so of November will be really packed for me! 

This will be my last holiday post as the next I will be posting is probably if I find time in the weekends once school starts.

I really hope my class is fine as I saw my classmates and I have to say more than half are EXTRA COMPETITIVE to a point where I honestly don't know if I'll enjoy this upcoming semester. I still sure do hope about the clique thing. Cuz, I'm already in Year 2 and in my last semester as a Year 2. It's about time I had some friends who actually sticks besides The NiggAPACHE of course. 

Well, we'll see.. I can only hope it goes well.

I've got a semi busy day tomorrow. Let's see how the last day of the supposed "hols" goes.

Till then

xoxo
