Active-Crystal Headphones

The $165 Swarovski Active-Crystals headphones. Guess this is one of a earphones specially created for women. They still have this with necklace and it costed $239 or more?

This is the most tedious item to be removed from its packaging!!! I have never buy earphones thats packed like this.........

So many steps to removing it from the box/packaging. If I am a bit more rough, I would have damaged the plastic earplugs? I guess, they have to make the packaging look more 'classy' to make buyers feel justified to pay so much for earphones?

Did u see the 'Active-crystals' or 'Philips-Swarovski' wordings? Those are laser-etched words. Will they faint off after some time?

Bling bling. The booklet stated that its 'designed by women for women'. Something like this.

The white straps on the earphones are rubberband to hold it to the plastic packaging.

If u buy ala carte crystals from outside, it should be rather expensive (if u manage to find it in the first place). Plus, you cant possibly stick crystal of this size to a earphone. Nowadays people like to DIY their stuffs with lots of blings-swarovski. They paste those tiny flat base swarovski stones onto handphone/earphones/camera etc. (I have done it on synthetic leather photo frame)

But for earphones, the end result might be rather fake or weird because most earphones looks 'plastic'?

I read that for this philips-swarovski series, its made of stainless steel and fabrics cord (exterior). But i am not sure if its chrome or what.

Anyway, it should be more lasting than normal earphones because there's no rubber component that might turn sticky after years. Those normal earphones straps tend to become sticky after few yrs. Guess they slowly breakdown. Downside is the fabrics cord might get dirted easily.

Ok, the earphones isnt THAT pretty (not as bling as diamonds hehe) but its still pretty and unique!
I am putting this in my display cabinet first to display it for a while. Switch on the spotlight & will be like Swarovski showroom display hehehehehee. Ok, I'm waiting for a chance to 'flash' it on the streets. Lalalaaaaaaaa

Gmarket 1st Order

Random display of pics... from my first Gmarket Order... but some stuffs are not in here.


This is from that seller whom has cancelled 2 out of my 3 items order. Then the thing is, i have to pay shipping and imagine end up buying 1 hairclip and pay domestic shipping.......... isnt this hairclip expensive?!?! Worse, its scratched!!! Very pissed with the seller. Maybe i should take a macro pic of this and post up here.

=I should have complained to Gmarket but its too late. So remember, if u received e/s palette (chipped off like mine), scratched items etc, just email Gmarket global and see if they can help u. No harm trying things out. Its very annoying to pay for something thats defective. We pay full amt, real cash. Not discounted price. Tsktsk



My bling bling gold bar wallet!!! The surface is also gold glitters inside that patent leather!!! Amazing right? Regret ordering the gold because the red is sooooo much nicer. How i know? Because i ordered 1 each. Gave the red to my mum. And I am going to buy the red again for myself. HUMPF!!!

Shower foam.......... initially i thought the free gift is one facial wash tube but that turns out to be scrub or moisturiser. I like the cleanser from this range.

Hair accessories from another seller. This seller is better because things are packed nicely into the box.

The accessories are pretty expensive. I end up paying $30 plus to 40 for 2 necklaces. Bought them because they are more unique.

Ok, buy less fabrics, buy less materialistic stuffs. So I have cut down on cosmetics/skincare since years back. No longer crazy over them now. Then I guess, I must cut on watches too. Embrace simplicity.

How True! Buck Up!!!

Omega Watch!

I bought this on end of December 2008. Ordered a new pc from the dealer. I was delaying from Oct to December, waiting for any credit card promotion. Too bad. No promotion. hehehe. Maybe the SA thought I buy it when I received my bonus. hmm but no? I dont have 13th salary? I dont know the exact term for this because I totally dont have this 13th "salary".

Only post 2 pics because the others are not nicely taken. Going to wear this on CNY :P A bit bright so cannot see the color well. But overall, rosegold is suitable for my skintone. So happy i stick with this instead of stainless steel. I still prefer this.

Fabrics

Wow, I managed to get this on the last day of 2008 at dirt cheap price! Its like half price of what I normally paid for! The down side is that, if there's 2yards or so, I have to buy all of them. The lady boss dont sell it by 1yard.

I like this multi color polka-dots. Not sure if I can do this into a shirt (as in, i'm not sure if i have the "Expertise" to turn this into a shirt) or i will just do a bag with this?

I like this xmas color print although its "very xmas". The prints are very sweet. The blue fabrics is a designer fabrics!!! So its really a steal!

Rather vintage cotton ginham? look. Luckily I get 1yard for this. Otherwise if i must get 2yards, most probably I will give it up. Most probably this is used as patchwork.
