something old, something new

note to self: do not announce a giveaway that happens at 8am in the morning... that just means that i have to wake up before that to write the post... perhaps 8am on a friday is fine. just not a monday morning... so here i am yawning endlessly whilst typing.

first up, big thank you to everyone who read my blog... i am humbled by the figures... we crossed even the 300 barrier so thank you once again to my readers from singapore, the united states and the latest addition, malaysia!

anyway, let's deal with the business at hand... MY VERY FIRST GIVEAWAY! 

so this post is titled, 'something old, something new'. here's something old...

it's a book entitled, 'Chanel: Collections and Creations'... interesting pictorial look into the house of Chanel. i've had it for a few years now and it's just been sitting there after i read it hence the decision to part with it. this is a combination of two of my interests... books and fashion... more information about this book can be found here... http://www.amazon.com/Chanel-Collections-Creations-Danièle-Bott/dp/0500513600

now for something new...

it's a wallet from Levi's... i got it as a gift from the store but it was just days after i bought my current wallet so this was left in my drawer for a couple of months now... if you are looking for a basic black wallet, this is it.

the important bits about the giveaway... drop me a note at greenmonster77@hotmail.com... do use 'something old' or 'something new' as your title depending on which item you would like... for your content, tell me which post you liked and why... i will be giving the items to the first person to write in... we'll work out postage details via email...

final note... i realised that the items are in line with this week's theme of black and white / monochrome! haha...

the next edition...

this post is not fashion related so i'm sorry to disappoint those of you who have started to pay attention to my humble blog and were hoping to find a fashion tip or two...

a couple of days back, i decided to start writing again because i enjoy writing... but writing for nobody in mind was quite a bore so i started to put up random articles about fashion (which i love!) and then monitor which ones work and which ones don't... well, the results are encouraging...

yes, i know there are blogs that hit hundreds of thousands of page views per day... who am i to boost with thirty each day? well, it's nice to know that people actually come to my page... of course i hope it's not a one time visit but do come back regularly and give feedback so that i can keep improve my content whilst developing my writing.

anyway, long story short... expect less posting during the weekends cos that's the time i have dragonboat training (yes, the @ditor is a dragonboater... paddle paddle race race) and also a time i catch up with friends or shopping... but i have lots of ideas about the next step that this blog shall take so do visit often!

final note... dropped by armani exchange and calvin klein jeans at ion orchard... quick glimpse at puma too... armani exchange and calvin klein jeans has decent new stock... do swing by if you are free... puma didn't blow me away.

OKAY... i love my virtual friends too much to not do something nice... when the page views hit 250, i shall look into my collection and do a fashion giveaway... it's nothing fantastic yet... baby steps to BAM!
