ever-crazed stila

my friend mentioned to me a couple of weeks ago that stila was going to close down in Malaysia. i couldn't care less because i wasn't that big of a fan of stila, despite owning a couple of lip glazes (which i've sold off because i realized i don't like wearing sticky lip gloss) and the stila scarlett swarovski christmas pallete (i only use the blusher now, haha). i used to crave stila during my first trimester last year and after i delivered my baby girl, the enchantment of stila seemed to diminish altogether. lol.

so every outlet in Malaysia is busy clearing their stocks now. being the girl that i am, who can resist items going at half of the original price, despite not liking the brand? =P. i was hoping to get one of their Stila Convertible Eye Color because according to Miu, it's one of their best sellers. i wasn't really an eye fan before because i always end up looking like a racoon in my attempt to use eyeliners and eyeshadows (i wear glasses too, so my eyes are less noticeable. and i hate wearing contacts). i didn't realize how many crazy stila fans were out there. by the time i decided to visit the stila counter at KLCC, most of the items and colors were out. i was lucky enough to grab an Eye Convertible in Onyx from Miu though. thanks Miu =D. i was also interested in the special edition makeup case going at RM50 only (because it's purple! so sweet) but as you can guess most of the stila-crazed mob snapped them up already. there are even some of them who grabbed as much as they could haul and resold them to people at double the price. geez. i'm beginning to think that this is a gimmick stila's pulling to get rid of their stock.

there are still bits and pieces left, but i wouldn't go as far as visiting every single stila outlet just to see what is still available (gone were the days where i would stalk each and every vincci store outlet in Malaysia just to get that particular shoe model that i fell in love with at the time, hahahah). there was one thing i was willing to buy though. i bought the stila mug. hahahah. it's selling for only rm15. some stila fans would add the mug to their museum of stila collectibles, but not me. i plan to use it in the office to drink. hahahahah! i should've bought more. i could make a collection at home. hahahah.

on another note, i bought some stuff at shiseido yesterday. i know i shouldn't have, but to be fair two of the items were on sale =P. oh, someone please kick me.

Significant Other will be going to Dubai tomorrow.
