Hump Day Shopping Frenzy, 20 Nov 2019

The search for a dinner dress and church wedding dress for the girls for the wedding of hubby’s cousin on 1.1.2020 continues today.  We spent a total of 4 hours walking non-stop, hunting for dinner dresses and shoes. I walked over 7k steps just at the mall. And another 7k during my morning exercise. Feeling very satisfied with my achievement today in the fitness department 😊

I bought the black dress for Sherilyn (first picture above). When we got home, a ‘senior relative’ commented that the younger Yaps should not be wearing black at the wedding dinner. She commented that I should bring the dress back to the boutique to have it exchanged with the blue one. So yeah, we will have to make another trip to the mall this Friday for this purpose and also to shop for another dress for the church wedding for Sherilyn.  When the school holidays start next week, we will have to make another trip to the mall again to shop for dresses and shoes for Cass.   This gives me excuses to go shopping again and again.  An ardent shopping queen never gets tired of shopping 🤗 And the icing on the cake is more calories are burnt and I chalk up more steps for the day doing what I love best.  🤩


We found all our dinner dresses at Marry Merry @ Mid Valley Megamall.   This boutique carries beautiful and elegant evening dresses and gowns at reasonable prices. And the dresses that I bought today are on a 50% discount!  We should have checked out this boutique first before we went to Eclipse and H&M last week and wasted so much time trying 101 dresses futilely.

I got this lilac dress for myself, for the church wedding.

Check out the big girl’s face. She’s pissed off that paparazzi mom stole pix of her wearing heels.  This is her very first pair of heels.   Other than to wedding dinners and her school’s concert / orchestra, this girl cringes whenever she’s asked to wear dresses and feminine shoes. 😆

Today’s damage is huge and more damage is in the offing  😧

  1. The dresses are beautiful and you look great in the lilac one. Hey, these days, it’s the norm to wear black colour gowns and dresses to weddings. No one mind actually. Hope you can get Sher’s dress exchanged.

    1. Hey Barb
      I know right? But when it comes to the elderly folks’ wishes, if it’s not too extreme a request, I’ll usually give in. Hubs actually wanted black but then again, oh well. I’ve already called the boutique. The lady said it’s OK to change, though she didn’t sound too pleased as the dress is a sale item 😀
