Haul: La Senza Semi-Annual Clearance Sale

One of my new year resolutions is to ban to frumpy underwear. I've already bid farewell to my ill-fitting bras and granny panties, and made room in my closet for bright and shiny new undies! (Do the same, and feel your confidence skyrocket instantly!)

New year, new undies!

Thank God, La Senza is having their Semi-Annual Clearance Sale. After shopping for Christmas gifts last month, it's high time to treat myself with all the sales happening in the metro. I was able to get all these on sale from La Senza in Trinoma and Rockwell.

La Senza Cotton Panties (7 for P1,295.00)

Original price for a pair of cotton panties is a whopping P495.00, but now each one just costs P185.00! Go hoard!

I was also able to grab a couple of Beyond Sexy Push-Up Bras in basic and playful designs! Each one I got was at P795.00, but they do have other bras (such as the lightly lined ones) for as low as P495.00 each. That's even cheaper than the ones you could get from the department store!

Beyond Sexy Push-Up Bra in Naked (P1995.00 -> P795.00)

Bring on the glitz and glam! This allover lace push-up bra creates an intense lift, while keeping a natural look. The gel-lining is specifically designed to contour to your shape, creating a virtually flawless clevage.

My personal favorite would still be the nude, lacy one. It has sparkles, so cute! :D

Consider underwear as a basic fashion necessity, since it can also make or break your outfit. Good fitting undies can make anyone feel more confident about themselves, so go ahead and indulge! La Senza's Semi Annual Clearance Sale is from December 26, 2013 to January 19, 2014.

Haul: Maven | Human Nature | La Senza | Landmark | Forever 21

While lots of my blogger friends are posting about their great northern sale hauls, I'll be posting about my haul from the mall next door. >:) Yesterday, I went to Maven's Beyond The Blush Beauty Blowout held in Trinoma (which is the first leg of their mall tour). It was so nice to see some of my lovely blogger friends again and also meet new friends in an entire afternoon of fun beauty, fashion, career, and personality development workshops. There were lots of attendees, and the event was a success. I'm looking forward to attending the next one, and I hope that the location will be accessible or near the north area.

Aside from the workshops, readers of Maven were also treated to an exclusive Maven loot bag, plus delicious cupcakes from Sweet Patti Cakes and wines from Manny O.

There were also booths selling beauty stuff like makeup, brush sets, skin care, etc. I was particularly drawn to the Human Nature booth, since I wanted to buy their newest releases. I finally purchased the new Human Nature Natural Moisturizing Shampoo and Conditioner in Lush Vanilla (which I've been sniffing like an addict since I bought it because it smells so good), and the new Human Nature Natural Feminine Wash in Chamomile Cool. I've been an avid user of the regular variant of their feminine wash, but I bet this one is even better because of its cooling sensation. (So fresh!)

My sister who wasn't with me during the workshop went to SM North EDSA to see what she could buy from the sale, but the foot traffic was too heavy (and we blame it on the sale's success). She described it "as if people were Christmas shopping" already. (Not such a great news if you're not into crowded places.) She came back to Trinoma and we decided to just shop together in some of our favorite stores!

First stop was La Senza, where there was a crazy mid-year sale (until July 29, 2012)! We both got to buy undies at almost 60% off. I won't be posting what designs of undies I got just to leave something to your imagination. Let's just put it this way, the bras from La Senza are so fabulous, that they manage to make something out of nothing at all. Haha!

After that we had dinner and went to Landmark, which was our ultimate bargain wonderland (even if they aren't on sale). There were lots of affordable but nice clothing, but I am still having trouble searching for slacks that are exactly my size, so I end up always buying skirts and dresses. I spotted a red maxi dress that had the exact length for my petite height! I had to buy it immediately, since I've always wanted a maxi dress that won't overwhelm my figure. If I wear this long red dress, I'm almost sure that someone might greet me "Happy Birthday!", but I don't mind.

The purple bath lily I also got from Landmark. I had to replace my worn out cream bath lily which was from Watsons (which lasted for just about 2 weeks). This one is double the price from my previous one, but it's bigger and it looks sturdier, so I hope it lasts longer.

The last one, I didn't buy. It's from my cousin who visited us from Canada. She knows that we love Forever 21, so she got us these cute little Love & Beauty Eyeshadow Blocks. Our local Forever 21 stores also sell makeup, but I'm not sure whether they also have these little Eyeshadow Blocks (because I always see palettes there).

So this was my weekend arte haul. So much for payday weekend! Now I'm back to bringing packed lunch to work next week. :D
