Lora Christelle Lim deep in thoughts...

Christmas is a time of giving and shopping for Christmas presents for everyone can be a very stressful job as you need to think deep and hard on a thoughtful gift that will be loved and appreciated. I have given many beautiful and lovely Christmas gifts to my friends and brought them great happiness :) Here is my Christmas Shopping List that I wish to share with all of you!

1. Scented Candles/Incense - Ecoya, Glasshouse, David Jones, MOR, Crabtree & Evelyn etc.

2. Fashion Jewelry - Chanel, Hermes, Swarovski, Pandora etc.

3. Fashion Clothing - Zara, Ally, Forever New, Portmans, Witchery, Country Road etc.

4. Gift Vouchers - Myers, David Jones, Cinemas Movie Tickets etc.

5. Christmas Goodies - Christmas Cookies, Chocolates, Candy, Crackers etc.

PANDORA CHARM BRACELET - I received my first Pandora Bracelet with Snowflake Charm as a Christmas gift this year and I am very excited as I look forward to adding new charms to my bracelet in the near future. Pandora Charm Bracelets are very popular in Australia and every Pandora Boutique are flooded with huge crowds. Patience is required when shopping in Pandora stores this Christmas Festive Season. My neighbor told me she has 2 full charm bracelets and each bracelet had a special meaning to her. I guess every Pandora Charm Bracelet tells an interesting story as most people add a new charm to their bracelet during special occasion such as - the birth of a new child, buying a new house, school graduation, job promotion, special anniversaries, birthdays etc. My birthday is coming up in JAN 2016 so guess I will have one good reason to add a new charm to my Pandora Bracelet!

CHRISTMAS BAKING - My general advice is to make a list, keep it simple and Christmas baking is definitely my top choice. I have spent 8 hours last Friday baking alone at home, whipping out fresh cupcakes and star-shaped cookies fresh from the oven! I took a long time to bake as baking in large quantities took a long time - moulding the star-shaped cookies one by one, putting tray after tray into the oven, decorating each and every cupcake/cookie by hand. Despite the hard work, I was feeling extremely satisfied as all my friends and neighbors were so happy to receive them and complimented that they taste incredibly delicious! I also baked for Charity and passed some of my baked goods to the hospital :)

Belated Birthday Presents - Miu Miu Nappa Cristal Clutch and YSL Belle Du Jour Patent Leather Clutch :)

I received 2 lovely belated birthday presents from my loved ones recently and I'm delighted. I have always love shiny accessories and fell in love with the Miu Miu Nappa Cristal Clutch which is extremely popular. It has been sold out in many countries and special thanks to Cindy Li for grabbing the very last piece found in London. This bag has travelled a long way into my hands!

My very thoughtful sister - Sara Shantelle Lim also bought me a red  Yves Saint Laurent YSL Belle Du Jour Patent Leather Clutch in order for me to match my red Miu Miu shoes, red Miu Miu handphone cover and the car which I bought recently. The YSL clutch comes in glossy patent leather in a classic and timeless design with a signature, stitched logo emblem. It has a magnetic snap flap closure and one inside open pocket. Many celebrities carry the YSL clutch to red carpet events. Suitable for evening wears and special dinners. This is my first item from YSL and perhaps more to come :)
