Pay $25 for $50 worth of waxing services at Always Tan Skin and Body, in the San Francisco. Open nearly 40 years, their well-trained staff makes that not-so-pleasant experience of hair yanking relatively painless. Don’t need a bikini, lip, or brow wax? Save your skin with 53% off a one-hour “Deep Cleaning” facial. Their five-part facial, which has earned this spa a near-perfect rating on Yelp, includes enzyme exfoliation, aromatherapy steam, deep-cleansing extractions, and a luxe hydrating mask. Cap it off with a neck and shoulder massage and this $59 package is a steal you’ll wanna snag before time’s up!

Look what I’ve picked up recently, a vintage “i santi” briefcase! Doesn’t it look classic?  My old VP was giving away some random stuff that he didn’t want to bring back with him to Germany, and this was one of them!  Super sweet! Structurally this bag really reminds me of the Mulberry Alexa, but worn out enough that it gives off a good vintage vibe. The burnt orange leather is simply to die for and it has three perfectly spaced compartments, for all your business/daily needs.  I can’t wait to sport it!

Here’s a close look. (sorry pictures were taken in my office)

Location: Element Mall | 1 Austin Road West, Kowloon, Hong Kong | 1st floor | Location No. 1001

Ended up catching high tea at Caffe HABITU with a couple of friends after we found out that our movie was sold out.  It was a pretty cute cafe that overlooked the ice rink in the middle of the mall.  Booth seating available along the edge overlooking the ice rink, cute lounge seating along the wall, and table seating close to the bar.   The cafe serves pastas, pizza, salads, soups, pastries, and of course assorted coffee related beverages.   I ordered a Cioccolata Freddo (ice chocolate), while my sister ordered a Caffe Latte Freddo (espresso with cold milk), and we both ordered dessert (unfortunately I don’t remember their names).   My friends ordered an Schiuma Di Cappuccino (ice blended cappuccino), his girlfriend a Cioccolata Freddo, and also a dessert.  Bill came out to be approximately $140 HKD (approximately less than $20USD) for my sister and I.   

The Cioccolata Freddo that I was ordered was fabulous! No complaints from anyone!  It’s definitely a cute place to hit up after a long day of shopping.

Check out their website for other locations and latest promotions!

You guys got to check out Pawn Stars!  It was first introduced to me by my boyfriend and I’ve been watching every episode on On Demand since I got back from Hong Kong.  Image a cooler and more up-to-date version of Antiques Roadshow! I’m so ready to hit up an estate sale, find some random crap, and head down to Vegas.

Check out Pawn Stars on the History Channel at 10/9c.

Here’s a little preview

Greetings from Hong Kong!

Just got off the plane not long ago….ugh…13+ hours of hell for me.  I have massive motion sickness, so I got dominated on the plane.  Threw up twice. ugh.

Anyways, I’ve been traveling quite a bit the past couple of years (mostly to Asia), and I’ve finally came up with some “must haves” or necessities to survive the dreaded 13+ hours flight.  Here’s what I have in my bag.

1. Bag – Limited Edition Timbuk2 Reflective Racing Stripe Messenger in gunmetal

Possibly the best travel bag in the world.  It has great compartments for all my laptop accessories, beauty products, my DSLR, my laptop and so much more.

2. Camera & Camera Bag – Nikon D40 & Crumpler 4 Million Dollar Home

I definitely miss traveling with a point-and-shoot camera, but hey, I shouldn’t be complaining since it’s a DSLR.  The Crumpler 4 Million Dollar Home is the perfect case for my camera (I highly recommend Crumpler bags, bags come in all different sizes).  It allows me to pull my camera in and out super quick and with ease.

3. Netbook – HP Mini 110

Perfect netbook for bloggers on the go.  Super small and light.

4. International Cellphone – LG Ice Cream Cellphone

Must have if you have a locked cellphone.  I bought the LG Ice Cream a while back hoping to use it in the US, but I ended up with horrible reception.  Found out later that phones from Asia run on a different frequency, hence the reception problem. But it’s not the perfect phone for me in Asia.

5. MP3 Player &  Camera – Apple iPhone

For those long MTR rides and quick pictures (when I’m too lazy to carry my DSLR).

6. Thick Socks

It’s freezing on the plane.  Got these socks from my boss while I was in Chicago doing a tradeshow.  The softest and warmest socks ever!

7. Flipflops – from Target

To slip in and out of on the plane.

8. Facial Mask – Neutrogena Fine Fairness and Olay White Essence Mask

The air quality on the plane is horrible.  My face tends to dry up real quick and with lack of sleep,  it’s sometimes necessary to do a mask on the plane.
