Nuff

Buying Dilemma..

I love attending enquiries.. You can keep asking and I can keep replying. serious. regardless of u buying or not. but when u decides not to buy, maybe you can end the reply with a - "Thanks for the assistance, but I have decided not to take the item" and not leave in silent. Because I do not know if I should save it for u or not.
Those who want me to reserve, aren't u glad I have no time frame? I also do not mind that u decided not to take it. But if u do want to take it but need some time to recoup your money to buy, tell me.
Can always blast me a mail saying that " U have found a better item else where, or gone broke, or change of style etc.." or "Gimme 2 more weeks. I need to save another 2 more dollars"
Point is - Get me updater ler...
Because there are other people who may be in dire need to get the particular item to wear for functions, for gifts, to go dating or simply to satisfy their buying impulse..
They need an answer - I got no answer - Can u answer ?
Then, they get frust - I get no answer - can u answer?
It's like making call to a call centre to check on your almost overdue bill, but operator failed to give u details, and u get irritated and ur bill got cut-off.. -__- (hmm... getting more and more irrelevant)
Point is - ur feedback and status is always appreciated
see how it is like a chain?

Not-e For Sale Post #2



Eason says: micheal jackson die
Cynth says: he not my brother ..
Eason says: :D
Eason says: but he is the king of pop
Cynth says: also not my brother ..

And so that celebrity was dead.. Only now that he is officially dead, most of the people in Facebook took some initiative to go dig up some MJ video clip and keep jamming up FB news feed with that plastic man's videos, messages and pictures..
I don't get it. When your grandma passed away, why don't you post snippets of her life in youtube showcasing her making butter cookies for new year? Or when she makes nasi lemak to sell and pay you thru school.
When your Grandpa passed away too, why aren't there pictures of him in his self made ciggie? And why are there no shouts out of "Ah Kong!! I love you very much!!! I will put joss stick to your altar everyday!!"
And then Michael jackson dies.. half day earlier than this uncle... whom I suspected may have died ..
I saw him lie flat on the road.. Which makes me wonder sometimes.. what determine when do we have our life taken away. Who determines it?
I saw that uncle lie flat at the side of the busy road... like this..while the radio plays Utada Hikaru's " Baby Come Back'

Sigh... most probably his wife would not have known about it till after 3 more hours when she is notified by the hospital. And when she knows, most probably, she do not know what is there to do but to wail and wail..And when she wail, most probably there will be too much things in her mind ( who is goin to feed the family, what is she gonna do without a husband, how is she gonna survive for the next 10 more years, how can she bear looking at the tragically dead husband)
Then again, he may not have a wife. He may be a single uncle who may have worked as a carpenter, carving walk-in closets for you rich fashionista, installing air-conds for you rich brats, mending toilet bowls for you ignorant rich arse. Which meant he had just ended his life without the privilege of having children to mourn his death and put flowers on his grave during the Ghost festival. Which also means that most probably his corpse would be lying for a couple of days in the mortuary till .. till.. I dont know, but I am sure those people in the mortuary have a way to handle it..
That torn pants, old combed cotton shirt.. Obviously he must have carved a lot of closets or built-in cabinets.. or mend a lot of toilet bowls.. but I don't think he had tasted or even know what is a spaghetti carbonara,caviar, or even the oh-so-nice tiramisu cake. A staple of mix-rice for lunch, ba ku teh for dinner and the occasional 50 cents butter cake packed in some oddly designed plastic taken during tea time at the local mamak.. is already a blessing, without much complain.
Why was he chosen to leave first? In a tragic way..? Could it be that he had sinned in the past? Could it be that he has nothing much in life to look forward to, hence God think its better to end it? HOw does the theory of life and death dictates the what nots of a person's? How do God make one go first? Is this what the Lord do to end the life? finger-push him.

However he dies, anyone dying is sad .. except for the politicians...it's even sadder when one who dies, just dies without having a real taste of the finer things in life....
yah, I get an enormous guilt arising when I am able to afford things that people cannot afford..I felt sad when I can go for the expensive Korean food whom the uncle carpenter can only assume how it taste. I felt bad when I can afford those stupid mix of cocktails drinks which most probably cost the equal amount of uncle carpenter's wage for a day.
I hope I can have all uncle carpenters to build me walk-in closets, mend my toilets and I would let them have a savour of the finer things in life..maybe I can't afford them caviar, but at least a cabonara.. but i aint Donald Trump!
Then I thought maybe I should also be humble and not spend the hard earned money on all things that I fancy... After all, uncle carpenter never had any besides his daily staple of mix rice. but then that would mean I would die no knowing how a cabonara/ truffles / abalone taste like!!
oh god!!! I am dumbfounded.. Uncle, I am sorry you left in such manner. I hope I can be the Prime Minister so that i can make everyone of you wear clean clothes despite your profession, and feed you cabonara just so you know how it taste like, and give you a comfortable living so that you will not die in regret...
Till now I am still not able to understand why u have got to go first...but whoever you are, you deserve a mention just as how that wacko singer deserves his. After all u made someone's life brighter by making their gorgeous closet.. or planted some gold toilet bowls.. Im sorry, I do not know in exact what do you do..
In your next life I hope you get to drive a Mercedes and not a motorbike anymore.


Even if you still got to drive a motorbike, I hope you are a contented biker-uncle-carpenter who have tasted at least cabonara or kimchi.
Rest In Peace..
*the frequent mention of cabonara does not literally indicate writer have never tasted any before. She had. maybe..

The above post is dedicated to the uncle, a stranger who got hit on the road, the dog which have been smashed to pieces that I avoided while driving, and many other innocent found dead..today, yesterday or any other day..
Today's been a long long day... of frustration and never ending colouring.. urghh

note to frustrated/ agitated / highly aggresive / mood-swinger people who happen to drop by : u are not forced to read. if u don't like it, I suggest u click NEXT or swing elsewhere to find a happier platform. I have very high tendency to ramble very often. u need not think high and low to leave nasty comment :)

the pareo style
Also bought this quite a while.. Sometimes I am over-ambitious.. I beg the salesperson to sell me this last piece on the mannequin..It is actually for those who have purchase above RM150 or so in the boutique that they will be elligible to AGAIN buy this (note : buy, not FREE) I can sooo envision myself in it... I told myself - one day I will bring the club down with my unashamed hotness with all this rare items i got. Unfortunately my actions are not as loud as my talk -___-
And till today.. at the time of posting... I am actually still not letting go :P !!!!!!
I am in the midst of attempting to sew many more of this :D actually it's not that hard.. I just need to get the relevant materials... I am trying to make a longer piece so that bigger sized girls can use it too... there are actually 10 different looks to be applied on this piece..but i got tired of doing it :P
Give me a holler if anyone is interested.. I may be able to make one of your choice :) at a reasonable rate of course... :)
Hey.. maybe we can even set up a club - The Wrapper Clubs' Mois ;P

I am a Small Blouse

small lil blouse with satin edging at the bottom
monochrome pic just don't do justice to the blouse eh?
bell sleeve

plunging neckline at a decent rate
NEW
Bought just to shut someone's mouth.If u notice there is a white stick at the shoulder, which I havent untag. Love the plunge, but a smaller framed person would suit better. It looked like a babydoll top on a giant frame :P I prefer longer top so as not to create a short body. This is more for petites in height kind of girls. I am 164cm + 4cm daily heels :P So i may appear like I have super long legs but stunted body :P
But thats just my view.. maybe it works for u. perfect for a casual day out especially a hot sunny day!

Hannah Not Montana

Personal vintage... Don't think I've ever worn because at the time of buying it never really does fit me.. :P One of my oldest collection which I do tend to take it out once a year and give it a try but never wear it out!

Like I said, fabrics last time were always better quality than those available nowadays.. As they said, cost cutting :)

corduroy with small lil flowery prints- true color

wear on its own or as an outer piece

pair with miniskirt for the sexy cowgirl or jeans for the subtly sexy Hannah

This Is Not a Selling Post :)

It's been raining almost daily ... urghhh!! which means i can't get out of the office.. i might as well get something to do... write a post !!

Yah, this is what I do ... putting motifs on papers... and later the girls will transfer it on fabrics by drawing and coloring it manually. It's all about colors. The more striking the merrier !!







swirls ! swirls! swirls !

shawl ! shawl! shawl !

the highly contrasting hibiscus!
last week, someone wanted to wear the ducks on her baju kurung, and this is what we did :)

If you do realise, most of the stuffs I am letting go are single colored. Soooo very unlike from what I do daily :D yah, sometimes we do get pattern sickness :D

My Name is Madhiva ! Bling Bling!

can smudge the eyes, the nose, but not the smile of wearing a churidar! :)
the pants

the edges of the scarf


scarf comes fully sequinned!

red and black, the perfect contrast!


Another on from the 'machis' collections!! A churidar !! or commonly a punjabi suit for most people.
I love bollywood!!! Hence is only fair that all my stuff despite not over-the-top glamour, but must signify a bit of elegance also wut.. ;)
Not many people (of other races) like to wear the sarees or the punjabi suit. OK, maybe they do fancy, but they have fear of wearing. After all, many have fear that the saree may drop. And many also think the punjabi suit makes them fatter than they are.
Saree is the most flattering outfit ever invented!!! With the correct method (the 3 pin method to be precise) definitely u will look ravishingly hot with an illusion of a smaller waist, tell u! I mean it creates a visual, not instantly reduces ur flab around ur waist ;D
Then there is also the punjabi suit,which is of course the safer outfit as there is no worry anything may drop :) Am not sure what is the best style or pattern to choose for when getting a churidar, but I know what I want when I saw one :)
Madhiva is soo glam for functions. parade it around with confidence..All the blings are not made for you to sit at a corner and hope no one notice u :)
The 3 piece set comes with a black top, red pants and matching red shawl. all with embellishment / sequins.
Has been nicely wrapped and placed in my 'to -wear -one -day' box. Am still hesitant to let go, cus it's rare!! But i prefer the walk around in saree and show more torso :P , and i am currently attempting to make my own saree!!
Imported from India of course
Fabric : Cotton Linen
Size :M- L (mail me for exact measurement since its not stretchable)
Bought for more than RM280, can't remember exact since I splurged with more sarees!
Reasonably yours for
RM120
