Admiring Audrey

First time i knew about Audrey Tatou when i watched Amelie, that time i was still in my secondary school.
I like Amelie, really simple movie yet at the same time gave a good feeling at heart.
Since then, i really into Audrey Tatou movies.
After that i also watched A very long engagement, that whole time until close to the end of the movie, i kept prayed hope her fiancee still alive. Really romantic movie.

Talking about Ben

I forgot to mention him when im talking about Skyfall. Q, Ben Whishaw.
Great actor, for somewhat the felling of IT geek that being potrays on skyfall really match him well.
It changes images of Q, to my opinion Q backthen is more like Da Vinci "inventor" but with Q in Skyfall, its more updated with nowadays condition that internet rules the world more than anything.
Ben Whishaw, i really like his acting.

Wish you good luck with your theater performance with Dame Judy Dench.

Hubby's working shirt

Im not just a mother and a wife. Im also happen to be alterations, laundry and ironing head mistress at home.
I loathe anything to do my hubby's working shirt, suits.
They always difficult to iron (i mean his working shirt), dropped the suits to dry cleaner, and have to sort his ties, arghhhh.
He spent thousands pounds just for working shirt and suits. And i got the headache with ironing just to get rid the creases such a ridiculous job.

Last time, his suits got holes on the pocket same with his trousers too and that suit is a branded that came with watering eye bill just being bought for few months. I think he always carry stone or tons of pebbles on his pocket. An expensive silk tie got stained by pen ink that it end up stayed on the corner of his wardrobe ages now.

Im really gutted honestly. All my pray is a  mens suit or shirt brand that affordable that didnt came out with such a watering eye bill and endure my hubby roughness.
Last year we found Charles Tyrwhitt store in Bluewater shopping centre, the store looks really neat and expensive exclusive look thingy.

Surprised! We spend only few hundreds pounds and managed to get 8 working shirt, 2 suits. Until today we still buying my hubby work stuff from them. I just bought hubby a brand new brown suit for him from their online web, and 4 working shirt by calling them since they send us catalogue regularly.

Pros about Charles Tyrwhitt, the company come with affordable price, and easy to iron and some of the shirts no need to iron, excellent costumer service. And they really true good quality, which im really happy to be their loyal costumer. Since they are a gem to find. Thank you Charles Tyrwhitt, you make my life easier. Blow kiss from a housewife.

bottle and cup

I have been looking around for children bottle and cup with few features that i want; easy toclean and if they come up with straw, must be robust from most violently chewing teeth. few bottles and cups failed to survived being tested by my boys.

Two days ago. I bought munchkin water bottle and Dr.Browns cup from Boots.
Munchkin bottle come up with straw that easy to be clean. The Dr.Browns cup also easy to clean. So far Mr. red A chewing the straw violently and the poor straw survive.

Thank you Munchkin and Dr.Browns for the lovely gadget. And Boots as usual still my favourite place for finding quality stuff.

Talking about teeth

I did my general check up last week since my wisdom teeth create some excruciating pain for days.
Went to dentist get x-ray and being asked to be back week later, that day i got my antibiotics being prescribed and she also told me i had lots of plaque. I already brushed my teeth everyday and everytime i did check up its always about plaque.
That day straight away i went to amazon and bought electric toothbrush Braun Oral-B. Since i want to make sure my teeth isnt decaying.
The week after that when i went back to the dentist, she told me that my plaque reduced quite significantly compare to last week and i didnt told her that im having and using electric toothbrush.
I didnt regret my decision to use eletric toothbrush they well worth it. If you keen here's the link

Beauty Regime

As i wrote on my previous post, Spring is time to tidy up and be ready for summer after hibernating in winter. So most of time i will buying things and start doing beauty ritual regimes.

Right now, im using Elemental herbology Facial Cleanser, Cell food and moisturizer day and night. I bought this from Space NK UK. The Moisturizer and serum felt really light and not oily when i wear them and gave me some refreshing cool sensation hours of wearing them. The facial cleanser consistence bit like oil but when it rubbed on the skin they create foam and didnt make my face skin dry and flacky. So far im happy using them.

And i decided just to window shopping and one of the sales advisor there asking me to try some of the clothes there, really no pressure to buy and she's gave me flock of dress. Most of the cutting or the shape even the colour is out from my comfort zone and im really pesimistic but she said to me to give it a go.

It turn up really amazing. Blew me away. Ok Hobbs now youre on my favourite list for fashion brand.
I end up bought this beautiful elegant red dress that has Kalimantan/ Borneo Ikat pattern on the dress.

Lets go crafty

Back then when im still at primary school i always do cross stitch on my spare time (when i said im doing it my mum gave me alot of hand since i made it really messy). I just like them alot. My brain love those x pattern for some reason and i havent done cross stitching for long time now.

Yesterday I went to bookstore and found cross stitch magazine and bought them as i found the magazine giving free project for kokeshi card and since i got bored if the craft project to big and take long time to finish it. Im in the middle doing these Kokeshi project now and in the magazine it says took 4 hours to finish it. Due to the lack of my stitching skill it look really messy and crooked.

Anyway, i do have a blast to get relax doing the project. I dont care bad weather since i can sit down and a cuppa warm water on my side whilst doing cross stitch.

Smelling nice

I cant wear high heels due the nature of my daily life (being a housewife) my trainers and sandals is my best friend.
I cant have branded handbags again due to the nature of my daily life, last time i went out with my son and put my handbags in the buggy i got pickpocketed now never used handbags again. Only small sling bag and has to be really light so i still can chase my son easily when he decided to make a run (since my son have ability to run and disappear really fast) and when i chased him, he tought its a game "catch me if you can".

So another thing that i can use and wear without become hurdles to my daily job is Perfumes. Perfumes and small touch of make up is the only saviour for me at the moment (for daily use of course).

I like to buy perfume and their body lotion.  I just bought Jous d'Hermes perfume and body lotion, their latest range of perfume which i like it the fact i can buy the refill if i run out the perfume and the refill bottle gave me in a size that equal to 2.5  new bottle.

After i finished my YSL Parisienne im thinking to buy D&G 3 l'imperatrice if not Balenciaga Florabotanica.

Lets Jumperoo

Back then when Mr "Red A" just newborn, i always taking him everywhere when i cleaned up the house, then since its quite dusty and not save bring along baby whilst im juggling with the vaccum cleaner. So then i bought rocking chair for baby. For 6 months he's ok sitting down and i can left him in living room.

But when he turn 7 months, he will be crying if i left him alone in the chair. It become really tough to clean up the bathroom and house. I got idea to get baby bouncer then one of my friend told me to get Fisher Price Rainforest Jumperoo to entertaining Mr "Red A". If you interested you can get it in Amazon UK, will give you the link here

Basically its a baby bouncer, i saw the baby bouncer that can be hang by the door frame since my door frame not suitable for that type bouncer so i bought Jumperoo. He's so happy to sit in there for long time. I can cook, doing house chores, ironing and he will be happy to jumping up and down in Jumperoo.

Im still using Jumperoo until today for Mr "White Bear" and like his brother he's quite happy to sit and jumping up and down in Jumperoo. This thing is a baby gadget that i consider important and in my top list for life saver to survive being a housewife aka cleaner of the house.
