Hello L.A.

Love the weather here in L.A., not as cold as it was in SFO.

We had Shabu-Shabu (hotpot) for dinner, quite healthy I guess. :)

I think we'll check out Beverly Hills later today, maybe I'll see some celebs? :-p

Can't wait to check out the shops here. It's probably the same as the rest but who cares, shopping is shopping.

My last time here in L.A. was the first time we all came to the US which was like in 1994?? I barely remember anything so it's like visiting for the first time.

Oh, I forgot to mention the good buys we got in SFO and San Jose!

My trip to SFO won't be complete without visiting DSW, a shoe warehouse...literally! Aside from their regular super discounts, they have an additional 30% off for everything! So Steve and I went straight to their clearance section, my gawd, the prices, it's super great deal! Even Steve was impressed!

Imagine a Bottega shoes from $55 to $75!! Isn't that awesome?? We left DSW with 13 pairs of shoes! But not all ours, my brothers and parents have one each, the rest are ours, hehe :-) That sort of made my day already but of couse, I still have to check out the rest.

H&M was a disappointment, their stuffs aren't what they're used to anymore. :-(

Those are the highlights of our stay in SFO. :)

Off to San Jose now where we stayed at for the rest of our stay...we went to the Great Mall. Only stayed there for an hour and a half. Thank God I walked by Arden B.! OMG, the whole store is at 75% off!!! I got a dress valued at $178 for only $18!!! I almost had a heart attack! hahahaha that's the major steal and then I got tops for like $5?! I can't decide what color to get, so I asked the cashier for her opinion, when she told me it's for only $5, I was like, oh ok, I'll get all of them. Five bucks!! Wish I had longer time to scout each and every piece there...hehe. But I was super satisfied and a happy shopper after that!

Oooohhh...Steve got me the LV Damier Azur Speedy!! It's in the room right now, resting nicely inside its box. Can't wait to use it.
