Shapee - Belly Wrap Plus+ and Hips Wrap Plus+

Shapee is the leading brand for modern shapewear and maternity products. Founded in year 2012, Shapee has provided comfortable and good quality shapewear to help women look good and feel confident. After giving birth to 2 children, I have problem with a big tummy. I have always wanted to have a smaller and flatter stomach and I think Shapee products can help me achieve my goals.

Recently I received Shapee's compression wrap, the Belly Wrap Plus+ and Hips Wrap Plus+ for review. These come in free sizes and are suitable for most people. They are made from the finest elastic material and breathable fabric which allows one to move freely. These should be hand washed and hung dry under the shade. 

Belly Wrap Plus +

The Belly Wrap Plus + supports the core abdominal muscles and helps one to get back their pre-pregnancy shape. This is suitable for women after giving birth naturally or C-section.There is a reinforced belt for stronger support and it uses triple compression design to help you lose inches faster. After wearing this, I feel my stomach getting smaller and it's not so flabby anymore. When I first started wearing it, I felt a little uncomfortable as it was tightly wrapped around my belly but after getting used to it, I do not feel the discomfort anymore. The tightness can be adjusted, so for beginners, you can wear it a little looser, then slowly tighter.

Hips Wrap Plus +

For women who worry about wider hips after delivery, try the Hips Wrap Plus +. This is designed with multiple levels of compression so you can control the amount of pressure on your hips. This is also made from breathable fabric which is stretchable and comfortable. I am not that particular about my wider hips after giving birth. However I still tried this and I do feel my hips being supported and tighter. This would be great for people who want smaller hips.

A SAVAGE FOURSOME MAKE THEIR MARK ON BANGSAR

Bangsar, 20 th February – Nivedhan Naysaduray, Vineeth Suresh, Vijay Karan, and Sarah Parmar have an average age of just 24 yrs, but already these young millennials have cemented themselves as entrepreneurs in Malaysia’s start-up node, Bangsar. The young and dynamic ensemble, recently joined Malaysia’s ever growing entrepreneur circle with the launch of Savage, a bar that brings an edgier feel to Bangsar’s nightlife scene.

The streets of Jalan Telawi welcomed its latest addition on the 20 th of November 2016. Savage, with its unmistakable purple hue, was the brainchild of its four enterprising founders who were inspired to turn their love for the food and beverages and entertainment industry into an avenue where they could share their passion with fellow party-goers. Savage offers patrons with a cosy set-up, entertaining music, and drinks at bargain prices that make it an ideal spot to relax after-hours.

“From the get-go, we set-out to create a venue that can be enjoyed by those who share our love for hip-hop, R&B, and old school music. When it comes to our menu, we offer an assortment of beverages that satisfy the wants of those who look to us as a spot to socialise and have a great time,” said Vineeth Suresh, Director of Savage.

Keeping with the entrepreneurial spirit, Savage also provides a platform for up and coming disk-jockeys. Among the talents that wow party-goers include, Zami, Ziqq, Lil J, Brian, Dinesh, and Jay. Its weekly events include, #StraightOuttaClass on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, #ThirstyThursdays on Thursdays, #FreakyFridays on Fridays, and #SavageSaturdays on Saturdays, that cater to different age groups and offer tailor-made promotions.

“By offering a variety of events on a weekly basis, we have managed to accrue patronage from different age groups, from working adults to college students. Working with high calibre entertainers and providing eye-catching promotions has increased the exposure of our brand by a considerable amount since we first opened our doors,” said Sarah Parmar, Director of Savage.

Its spacious layout makes Savage a perfect venue for get-togethers, parties, reunions, fundraisers, and corporate events. The bar is able to accommodate between 100 to 120 pax and offers a long list of household brands of liquor, wine, cocktails, and beers that will satisfy even the most discerning taste buds out there.

“At Savage we offer great music, beverages at premium prices, and an ambience that is cosy and inviting. Our goal is for our customers to make this their go-to spot for fun and a great time. Regardless of whether you are looking to host an event or have a relaxing night out with your friends, Savage is the place to be,” said Nivedhan Naysuduray, Founding Director of Savage.

The arrival of Savage comes at a time when Bangsar’s nightlife is thriving with bars, restaurants, cocktail lounges, teahouses, and coffee houses filling up the grid of streets outside of Bangsar Village. Despite visitors having a long list of outlets to choose from after dark, Savage’s owners are confident that this will not deter their success, if anything, it would only serve to increase the patronage of the bar.

Vijay Karan, Director of Savage added, “The success of the outlets in Bangsar have greatly contributed to the large footfall to this area. At Savage, we believe our unique offering will be able to attract a portion of this crowd to our bar. It is great to operate in a vicinity that is made out of many reputable names in the business, and our goal is to be among the must-visit bars in Kuala Lumpur.”

Valentine's Dinner at Lillipilli Cafe, Sunway Pyramid West

Valentine's day is a day for couples to celebrate their love. Usually couples will have a romantic dinner and spend time together on Valentine's day. After I was married with kids, my hubby and I seldom have romantic dinners because we need to take care of our kids all the time. This year we were lucky to be invited to Lillipilli Cafe at Sunway Pyramid West for a romantic Valentine's dinner while our children played at The Parenthood Playland. 

The Valentine's dinner package includes a 3 course meal candle light dinner, 2 unlimited Play Entry for kids (including kids meal) and 1 mystery gift for the lady. The package was worth RM 150+ but there was promotion for RM 99.00 only. This was a great deal especially for couples who want some romantic time together while kids enjoy their playtime and food.

The ambience was really romantic as we entered Lillipilli Cafe. The tables were nicely decorated with flowers and candles and the owner, Ms. Li Lian gave my hubby a rose and a gift to give me. I really liked the flower and gift. We were also given cards and color pens to write love messages to each other. 

The kids had their meals before we let them play at The Parenthood Playland because we know once they start playing, they will not have dinner. My daughter had Spaghetti Chicken Bolognese and my son had Fish N Chips with their fruit punch.

After the kids finished their meals, finally it was time for my hubby and I to enjoy our romantic Valentine's dinner. We were served with fruit punch drinks, mushroom soup with garlic bread as our appetizer. The mushroom soup was delicious as there was generous amounts of mushrooms. For our main course, I had roasted chicken (mushroom sauce) with fries & salad and my hubby had roasted chicken (black pepper sauce) with fries & salad. The roasted chicken tasted delicious and I really liked the mushroom sauce with lots of fresh button mushrooms. The salad was very fresh too.

Our dessert was Banana Split with 3 different ice-cream flavors, Strawberry, Chocolate and Vanilla. I loved this and shared it with my kids. When we finished eating, it was about 10pm. 

Thanks to Lillipilli Cafe for having this great package for Valentine's Day dinner. My hubby and I really enjoyed ourselves. My kids had a lot of fun too. The dinner was delicious and the best part is everything was nicely planned including flowers and gifts. Thanks for being so thoughtful.

Lillipilli Cafe also organizes catering services, birthday parties and other celebrations. For more information, you can visit their Facebook https://www.facebook.com/lillipillicatering/ or call Andy at 016-205 4048. 

GT Mobile GT-888 Smartphone Review

GT Dollar had a grand launch on 16th January 2017. To read my earlier blog post, click HERE. This was held at Sime Darby Convention Centre and I was introduced to GT Mobile at this launch. GT Mobile GT-888 smartphone is designed in Singapore. Since GT Mobile is quite new in Malaysia, I will let you know more about its specifications and my honest review. 

Unboxing the GT Mobile GT-888 

GT Mobile GT-888 smartphone comes with a quick charger (charges 35% in 15 mins) which I really like, an earphone, a screen protector, a transparent casing and a user guide. It has a 1 year warranty period. The screen is 5.5" and is the right size and comfortable to hold. The screen is made from Gorilla Glass 3 which is 300% shatterproof and scratch-resistant. Less worries about screen cracking when it falls. The 2.5D Arc Screen delivers high resolution, very clear photos and colors from every angle. It has a metal frame and comes in 2 colors, silk white and metal grey. Mine is the metal grey color.

GT-888 is 8.6 mm thin.

GT Mobile GT-888 features a 64-bit quad-core processor which enables fast speed for playing games or multi-tasking. It runs on Android 5.1 Lollipop OS. I like the dual SIM standby where I can have 2 SIM cards in 1 smartphone. This would be great for some people who need at least 2 different telephone numbers, 1 for work and 1 for personal calls. 

The rear camera is 8.0MP and the front camera is 5.0MP. I have tried taking some outdoor and indoor shots. The photos are clear even in low light because it has an image sensor which can focus in 0.3 seconds. Here are some photos I took. Overall, I am quite satisfied with the clear photos taken.

The GT Mobile GT-888 has a HotKnot Function which allows users to share contents with other smartphone seamlessly. Just tap down swipe to oen HotKnot funtion and put the device in contact with the receiving device screen to screen to start the transfer. You can send photos, songs or files faster than Wifi transmission speed this way.

It also comes with a pre-loaded GT Dollar app and GT Watch app. 

In conclusion, I really like this GT Mobile GT-888 smartphone because it has fast charging, fast speed to get my work done, good quality camera photos, dual SIM cards and HotKnot function.

Jonlivia S+ Hotpants Review

I have never owned a hotpants before and was excited to receive the Jonlivia S+ hotpants (5th Generation, Batch 9) for review. S+ stands for Sweat+, Stretch+, Slim+ and Soft+. I have always wanted to lose weight since I had children and I know Jonlivia S+ hotpants can help. This is because it makes me sweat more and burns more fat. It is stretchable, soft and comfortable. Jonlivia hotpants is made in Taiwan. The material is 85% neoprene & 15% nylon and it is breathable hotpants. It is suitable for all kinds of activities such as jogging, cycling, yoga, badminton and other exercises.

Jonlivia hotpants has 4 layers, it has double waist level and can be pulled up to tummy level.
I started wearing it for 1-2 hours, then increased to 4-5 hours. If your body permits, you can wear up to 9 hours. Wearing the Jonlivia S+ not only increase the amount of sweat, it promotes body detoxification too.

It has stronger waistband, stronger side stitches and wide back stitches. It is very flexible and the best part is it comes with a back pocket zipper. The quality is very good and I would definitely recommend this. It also looks fashionable even if you want to go shopping wearing it.

You can hand wash it or washing machine cold wash only. Do not tumble dry, do not iron, do not bleach and do not dry clean.

Thanks to Jonlivia for this great hotpants. I love my Jonlivia hotpants very much. If you want to find out more about Jonlivia, please visit their Facebook https://www.facebook.com/jonlivia/ or website https://www.jonlivia.com/
