Cuci

Last night we watched Cuci The Musical. And it was easily the funniest musical I've ever saw (not like I watched too many musicals). Kudos to the whole team. I was skeptical at first but after reading the rave review in NST last week we decided to give it a try. It had us in stitches throughout the show and the best part the jokes were delivered candidly. And it was not slapstick either. I don't want to write a review since in today's NST there's another piece written abt it. But if you haven't watched it yet, go get yourself a couple of tickets and a babysitter.

Gals... please don't put any clues or the answer in the comment box. Better yet, lets discuss this in emails.

Wardrobe malfunction

I wore my new pants today.. Well, it's kinda new since this is my second time wearing it. I bought the pants in Zara and had it altered since it's too long for petit me (ok la... pendek). Anyway, the label says that it's dry clean only but unfortunately the very first time I wore it, my beloved boy vomited on my lap. Ok la fine eventho I had to drive home (Farril vomited while we were at the clinic) while sitting on old newspapers. Anyway, the pants went in the washing machine, ye la takkan nak antar seluar bau muntah to the laundry.. kan pengsan lak org tu. When it's clean and dry, I thot the pants looked a bit short but nvm. So, today I got my confirmation, yup.. my pants shrunk. On the other parts it's OK since it only became a bit tighter ard the waist and thigh but the thing is the length has become shorter. I was like..ok.... maybe it's not noticeble and since I was late I just grab my shoes and drive off to work. Tak tau la apasal gatal la plak hari ni nak pakai booties yg lama tak pakai pastu tak sedar diri seluar tu dah senteng sket... sekali dah pakai kasut mmg la ada sedikit kelakar. The problem is if it shrunk just a bit more I can passed it off as cropped pants but now it hangs just above where the booties starts. Nampak kaki sket. Bongok..

Standing up... kaki ku buat peek-a-boo

So now the question, should I just cut off some inches and make it into a proper cropped pants or leave it like that BUT remember never to wear it with those booties again. Actually, I'm not even sure how it will look with other shoes. I'll try it later...

Sitting down. Kalau berdiri pendek camni takpe gak..

I found it!!

I've been looking for a dokoh ('Loket yg berupa kepingan lebar diperbuat daripada emas dan berhias batu permata' according to Kamus Melayu DBP) since I saw one at a local brooch shop before Raya. As usual being me, I didn't buy it then and there. I was buying brooches with my mum and only gave it a once over. Nevertheless, the image stuck in my head. Then, I found my kebaya songket that I made but never wear since 2002 at the back of my wardrobe. I thought the kebaya would look nice with some accessories. So, my mom and I went to the same shop to buy it and guess what, the one in gold is not available. Then we went to shop's main branch and saw it hanging in the display cabinet. Lega.. tapi sekejap je cos it's the only one left and it has a huge discolouration in the centre. Tension tak dpt beli. Last week, I saw one at Midvalley. I took a look at the price and decided not to buy it plus they have only one of it. I searched for it on the internet but I didn't know it's name so I was searching for brooches, kerongsang with no result. Later, I googled image and there it was and finally I knew that it's called dokoh. After that it's easier to search and I found 2 website selling it. One of it has a shop in Giant Kelana Jaya so I simply had to have my lunch there and finally it's mine. Here it is;

The shop has lots of design. You can have a look here: Paulini's Collection. A few other design caught my eyes but I settled for the one I was searching for. Love it and you can bet I'll be popping by again really soon.
