Christmas Gifts Shopping Spree at AEON Malaysia

Sebrinah Yeo December 19, 2021 0

It's the special time of the year again and it is merry, bright and cheer with Christmas this year! This year's Christmas special I will be featuring AEON stores nationwide because they are my life saviour! It was due to a last minute decision and I selected a few Christmas Wish List from my organization of letters from children in several orphanages in Kuala Lumpur from ages 1 year to 11 years requesting for toys, sports equipment, soft toys and a variety of sorts and I wonder, where to get them?

So if you happen to be like me in a hurry to finish your Christmas shopping, then fret not! Because AEON actually has a "12 Gifts of Christmas" festive countdown that showcases a variety of gifts that is suitable for the entire family! And that's not all! The pricing are super affordable some even way below RM100!

Worry-no-more, as AEON is your one-stop last-minute shopping destination and here are also some guidance and an idea that you can make your shopping for gifts this season even more easier!

For Children :

If it's a girl, a stylish, cool, or practical present that your younger sister, daughter, niece, or friend's toddler would enjoy may seem like a daunting chore. Worry not, since AEON has you covered with hard-to-pass-up toy brands like Barbie, Aquabeds, Baby Alive, and Licca and many more!

What about a boy? They say boys will be boys. What excites boys more than thrilling fun and adventures? Perhaps some cars too – if that is a yes, Hotwheels, Wan Lee Boy Toys and Thomas & Friends will ring a bell in your mind! Come over to AEON and get your sporting gears, and also some cool toys/ games such as LEGO, Hasbro, Gundam, Beyblade, Nerf and Jurassic Park - all starting at RM50++ only.

For the Adult :

For Her - Please take note that women and fashion are inseparable – well, beauty comes first! Pamper your woman with a skincare regimen package from SK-II, Laneige, Shiseido, or KOSE' and watch how it makes her day. Not only that, with AEON's exclusive on-going promotion, you may shower your woman with irresistible scents from Burberry, Dolce & Gabbana, Tiffany & Co, and many more brands.

For Him - Nothing defines a man better than classic old leather. Consider getting him a good wallet, bag or belt made of top-notch quality leather from Obermain & Alain Delon or even good pair of shoes from Crocodile and Larrie. Not a man with eye for fashion? No problem! Gift him good Men’s collection watches from Caterpillar, Alto or even Polo Club Britannia, which is available up to 50% discount at AEON.

Visit any AEON store nationwide for ongoing promotion and extended New Year's specials until 2 January 2022 for the ultimate variety for the entire family, including toys, shoes, handbags, perfumes, electrical gadgets, and home fashion all under one roof.

Children Accessories Christmas Special with Madammoselle Malaysia

Tesco

Sebrinah Yeo December 24, 2020 0

Its Christmas Eve! Have you already bought gifts for your loved ones? I know I have! Especially for my little precious princess who is already 1 year plus and has been capturing my heart every single time I lay my eyes on her.

At first I was considering toys for her but then I realized she is more feminine than me combined and she is truly a work of art! She loves sitting infront of the mirror and looking at herself and pretending to put skincare on whilst combing her baby hair that is slowly taking its time to grow out.

That's why this time I gotten her Madammoselle collection of hair accessories for my daughter and also for me so that we can put them on together. At first I was wondering where to locate cute adorable hair accessories for her and also for myself. Because I want to also see the quality as well! Because of that I decided to check out Madammoselle for its full range of hair accessories and they also have them in physical retails and one of them I spotted was at Tesco hypermarket at the clothing sections. I love Madammoselle brand identity because their brand's DNA is to empower female to look and feel their best! Even in the simplest hairstyle like a ponytail can make a whole lot of difference subject to individual style and preferences. Another reason is, they have a huge collection that you would wanna splurge on a variety of choices that can last for long term!

So I splurged on these because they are affordable, of good quality and comfort, most importantly, I can wear it in style with my daughter anytime we want! So today, allow my daughter to model the beautiful collection as she also loves it on herself as well. Hence the kiss she gave herself in the mirror (hahaha)!!

I think this will make a perfect gift for all the ladies and lil ladies out there! The best gift for best friends to match and pair with, a lovely collection your girlfriend will adore, the best gift a mother and daughter can down with it today! So head on to your nearest Tesco outlets now and style up just in time for the countdown tonight for Christmas tomorrow with your precious loved ones!

A Book Is A Gift You Can Open again and again

Used

Sebrinah Yeo February 12, 2019 0

“The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.” – Dr. Seuss

And this is very true. Since young, my mom always encouraged me to read a book a day. I was one who never liked to study, but my mom told me to read a book instead of just role-playing with Barbie or watching TV all day long (there was no iPads or smartphones back then). So I took her advise and look through books from my sister's room. I remember reading Archie comic books as the first ever story book I touched! However, it was just simple flipping through the pages. Then I told my mom I wanted to see what else is out there?

I remember she took me around town to find a local bookstore who rents books back then and as I was looking at the comics section, she told me to look for stories instead of comics. So I checked out Enid Blyton and that's how my storybook reading journey finally began.

Fast forward to today, I have came a long way and have my parents to thank for. Taking me to the bookstore to return the books and to rent another book to read up and repeat again and again. It was just exciting! Until these bookstores started to close down one by one. And technology started blooming as was I.

As a mom of 2 and soon-to-be 3 kids, I would definitely love them to experience life as is, like a book of wonderful journey that awaits them to start their own story.

So I've been looking online for books for my children and I found this website of My Children's Book that actually offers really affordable and a wide selection of hand-picked titles with up to 80% discounts off it's normal price because they are an online retailer that specializes in used story books for kids in Malaysia.

I love how they categorize their selection by age group and by popular categories and titles. It really shows that they have a large variety of selection to choose for. But most importantly, I can just click and wait for my books to arrive at my doorstep. I don't have to hunt down for the next upcoming book clearance fairs anymore, although the difference of the books may be of its quality such as new or used. But even at bookstores, some books have already been used on the spot itself so its really no difference, so long as it's condition is still good.

My Children's Bookstore also has a guide that explains their condition of their books as you check out their book selection range. They even show the quantity available.

Given the chance, I wouldn't mind receiving a book as a gift. Because books are like keys to very informative knowledge that you may never know what you got yourself into until you start reading it!

Another thing that I find really useful is that each book has "More Info" that you can view to see the details of the book and its origin publisher and how many pages it consists of. Apart from that, there's also a Synopsis section where most of the books has a short caption explaining what is the book all about. But to really know what the book is truly all about is to just get it!

I gotten 9 books for my kids to learn reading for the first time on their own & also a variety for me to read them bedtime stories. Mostly is Ladybird and also Enid Blyton too!

The pricing is definitely reasonably affordable, and the condition are all almost as new and very good! Some other books has options to choose good or acceptable (library copy) conditions etc, which will definitely bring the price lower for sure!

Multiple payment gateway options

So if you're on a budget then why not? Afterall, as long as the book can still be read even though it may not be of fresh prints. I believe every item holds a memory in place and books that has been read, has more stories to tell, atleast it will smell like a real book would smell like! (Most book lovers can relate!)

A book can take you on many journeys at anywhere anytime and that is priceless! And my kids were equally excited to receive their books that I ordered for them!

They are now choosing which book I should read for them every night now. Atleast on the bright side, they are now following my footsteps in showing passion in reading books at a much younger age when compared with me back then.

I was expecting maybe some worn out pages or yellow stains or lots of scribble. But just look at the condition that all these books arrived in!! It looks really new, almost new! There were some with names in it but it wasn't scribbles on every page. Totally worth it!

However, the good condition ones goes out pretty fast but they have over 1,000 titles available, you will be too spoilt for choice!

Batik Boutique Unique Holiday Collection Malaysia

variety

Sebrinah Yeo December 04, 2018 1

What do you know about Batik?

Ever thought about it before?

If you're like me, am sure you may have the same common understanding that Batik is a unique design by Asians, especially amongst the Malay community with their traditional Batik design and attires.

In fact, you're probably thinking, batik is a sarung or baju kurung or a cloth with nice pattern print design. But what if I tell you that, this post may change the way you see, think, imagine and feel about batik more than you can even imagine it's purpose for!

At The Batik Boutique, the story to how it began to it's solid footing here in Malaysia today, truly marks a gift that the founders and its creators really inspires and empowers more people with their humble beginnings.

Amy Blair, met her friend Ana, a single mother in 2009 and through her friend she actually met a few women who were living in PPR flats in a very poor and rundown condition with their family. It saddened her to see that they didn't have the opportunity that she had when she was growing up in the states. And settling here in Malaysia building her family here, after meeting these ladies, she were inspired to find ways to help these ladies and her friend Ana to have a better chance in Malaysia.

Ever since then, from a few ladies who had zero knowledge in sewing or batik, learned baby steps and finally, from sewing from home, to studios, into retail outlets and now into exporting across borders such as UK, US, Australia, Japan and abroad; The Batik Boutique truly made its humble mark in proving that you can do anything if you just don't give up!

The women who are involved can now earn a sustainable income to support their family unlike before, they can finally stand on their own two feet and be independent. You see, the Batik Boutique was created with the mission to teach women how to sew and to work with artisans in Malaysia.

They have just recently launched their 'Holiday Collection' a couple of weeks ago and the result was overwhelming as it was almost sold out.

I really love their display of the 'Holiday Collection', it's truly befitting for the upcoming festive season Christmas. What's even better, celebrating Christmas in Malaysia with the true art of the beautiful and unique Batik design.

If you noticed the pillow design that I am cuddling with, was actually inspired through the founder Amy, rummaging through some of the batik blocks from one of the artisan and she saw a tenung design weaved on the batik. That's how this pillow design was born for this 'Holiday Collection'.

I won the Instagram post during the day! A beautiful yellow batik, bag.

They also have 2 types of clutches, one in greyish white and another in vibrant colors; the colorful one is almost sold out as well by the way.

Everything that the Batik Boutique has to offer are all 100% handmade, including the tassels on some of the products.

It's really amazing to see women who started from scratch, they had nothing, everything from zero ground up, zero skills and no knowledge of sewing, even one of them couldn't read or write but they all needed one thing in their life, and that is money for their family. Through learning this skill set, they now make a decent living and continues to create these marvelous collection for the world.

I really love how the Batik Boutique does not just focus on selling batik cloths etc, but they offer you a wide array of variety in batik design, such as having modernise fashion but in batik styles.

Batik Boutique successfully expresses to the public that batik can be modern and be used for more than just apparels, yet, it can still be casual AND each piece is unique because they work with artisans. This makes their collection valuable for money as you can not only wear it at home but even outside as well.

And seeing as the season of gifting is near, what's even better than to gift these perfect gifts to your loved ones, here's a 20% code for you to enjoy online! (Valid till end Dec 2018)

HOLIDAY20

I really enjoyed the workshop here where they also organize workshops like these to the public too. These are perfect gift sets for kids too! I'm thinking to get a set for my kids to enjoy the beauty of batik at home.
