"anya" happy to see me?

today was like any other thursday...
woke up, got my a** to work, had my cuppa of java, wrote a lil bit ere and there in my blog...
UNTIL...

"hey miss urban chic...there's an anya hindmarch preview sale today...wanna go?"
maybe it was the huge 'i am a shopaholic' sign on my forehead...or a 'she's really stylish' look that i have (ok, i am merely wishing...)

but whatever it is...what could i do...but agree to go along?
(innocent smile)

at the front of the store, there were 2 tables with loads of anya hindmarch paper bags carefully lined up. after signing the guest book, i was given the goodie bag! was hoping for a mini pouch of some sort...but what was given was good enough...:)...there was a really nice note/sketch book, a booklet on the colletor's items and a booklet on the be-a-bag product.

there was also a hi-tea spread! cakes, cupcakes (what else), chocolates, coffee...and alcohol (yeesh...come on. its not even NOON...bloody alcos)...i just tried the chocolate pralines (which were SUPER duper yummy)...the cake (which was not so yummy)...and this pink spongy sandwich thingy with sickeningly sweet inside (which was not yummy at ALL)...but despite it all..they looked so pretty!!

Tower of those sickeningly sweet sponge sandwiches

as for the preview sale...the prices were really good! things were going at 20-60% off! there were 2 pairs of shoes i really like that was going at 60% off! but...*sob* they didn't have my size!
(might go to pavilion to check this out!)

anyway, this was the highlight of my lunch hour (plus!)...:)
