It Felt Like Christmas Time

I am secretly in love with the delivery guy.

Not only one delivery guy but a few of them who had been kind enough to deliver my parcel to me. Every delivery guy that came to my house made me feel special and love.

Okay, that is it. I am not going to express my love to the delivery guy anymore, haha!

But do you guys feel happy when you see the delivery guy standing in front of your doorstep with a parcel in his hands? Do you feel the love that he is trying to show you? Do you feel like Christmas all over again?

Have you felt any of these feelings?

Okay, now I sound crazy, haha! What happened to "not going to express my love to the delivery guy anymore"?

I just feel happy, that's all. It is like Santa came early with everything that was on my Christmas wishlist (Although I paid for everything that was on my wishlist ðŸ˜…).

Online shopping has been one of my favourite activities since I knew the magic behind those mouse clicks. Thank you mouse for serving me well and this time I shopped a little on TaoBao, basically it is a Chinese version of Amazon.

Short story on why I ended up shopping on TaoBao.

I got a new phone last two months and I could not find a nice phone case for it. I am currently using Sony Xperia XZ and somehow most of the shops are selling only iPhone cases. Can somebody please tell me why? It is quite hard to get one nice and cute phone case for my phone but iPhone case is like all over the place. You can practically get whatever casing that your heart desires, I am so jealous of iPhone users. 😒

But at least, I still have TaoBao to save my poor soul, haha.

With a few mouse clicks here and there, waited for weeks before it got to my doorstep and TADAH!

My early Christmas gift, minus the less appealing wrapping sack but what really matters is on the inside, haha!


Let's do some unwrapping business to see what I got from TaoBao. 😉

I bought two phone cases for Hazel but sadly I got one of them the wrong phone model. 😢

Lesson learned, always double check the phone model that you choose under the options available. Although it says there "Phone case for XXX model" but there are different phone models available for the same design.

TSUM TSUM!
Finally I managed to find them on TaoBao! And look at how adorable Stitch is with the alien hat on his head, just so freaking cute and I had to get it.

I also got a mini Totoro phone case and I think there are some other cartoon in it too. Not sure which is really belong to Totoro because I didn't grow up watching Totoro.

Here comes my favourite phone case of all, MACARONS!

It looks so cute and I almost bit them off when I first saw it, haha! 😀

I am not sure what Japanese cartoon is this but they are so cute with the watermelon print.

And they gave me that purple thingy as free gift. I think you are supposed to stick that to the back of your phone to make that ring kind of thing for your finger so that you can hold your phone securely, I guess.

I don't know, sometimes phone accessories are too fancy to understand, haha! Or maybe I am just too old to understand the new fancy things people are using, haha!

And I got myself a bonus item which I wanted to get for some time.

I had been browsing the internet for quite some time before I decided to get these cuties because I don't feel comfortable buying shoes online.

I love to shop online but there are few things that I would rather not to buy online especially shorts and pants. Sometimes those shorts or pants fit perfectly around my waistline but not on my thighs or the other way round. Skirts are okay because you don't need to worry whether it fits your thighs or not, as long as it fits nicely around your waistline then you are good to go.

Second is shoes. My shoe size is 7 but some of the shoes may have slightly smaller cutting size and I might need to get them in size 7.5 or 8. You can only know how well a pair of shoes fits you until you really try them on. Some shoes fit your feet perfectly but they are not comfortable, and usually uncomfortable shoes will end up in the storeroom forever, haha!

That was why it took me so long to decide whether or not I should get these Tsum Tsum slip on shoes.

So now I already got them, what do I think about buying shoes online?

Overall, I am happy with my purchase this time. Those are really adorable shoes and it appeared to be the same as the pictures shown online  I got them in size 7 which is my usual shoe size but these are a little bit loose for me. Just a little bit that it does not bother me that much because once I wear socks with it then it is fine. Maybe those are the rooms for socks, haha!

If you are interested in getting one or two pair for yourself (there are other designs available too), here are the links for you:

Last but not least, I got this key chain for no reason. Even my mom asked me why did I get this weird looking key chain online, haha!

It is Gudetama and I must have it, that's all.

Okay, that's all for my TaoBao haul for this time.

So far I've got 6 phone cases so I think I'm good and that's enough. Please don't let me see another cute phone case else I would end up with another 6 phone cases and my mom would definitely kill me for that, haha!

Okay, that's it for this post.
I hope you guys enjoyed reading as I enjoyed shopping online, haha!

Happy weekend!

The TaoBao Lover,
Rachel.
