Ten years ago, I used to stay up until midnight to wait for the fireworks - Merdeka, Merdeka, Merdeka! - and wake up at ungodly hours like 7am to watch the parade. Now, I stay up until 3am watching Sex and The City (just finished Season 5 :P) and then wake up at 2pm after all the parades are over ... and DBKL is sweeping the confetti off the stadium floor.
But despite growing into a rather unpatriotic young adult, it hardly means I don't love my country! ;) If you're anything like me, then you'll know what I mean when I say we show our love in different ways - like, shopping to help the country's economy! :D
Here are 8 stores to show our love through, on this very important day! ;)

We've seen the striped maxi dress, but we haven't seen a laced striped maxi before!
Highly recommended for sizes 4 to 6 with a trim figure -
this'll be a great piece to accentuate that toned body! :D

This one is a briefcase-esque bag that's suitable for both school and work.
Great opportunity to merge the best of both worlds: style and professionalism!

Calling all size 6 shoppers with a great sense of style! :D
This pair of thick cotton lilac high waisted shorts are super cute, especially with that paperbag waist!
And have you seen this white lace corset? Love it!
It'll be a great outfit to accessorize with, too!

I think I'm getting a little hooked on bold statement necklaces these days,
and this brass one is so irresisitble - I had do something about it - either buy it or review it! :P
Ooh circular sunnies a.k.a. round sunglasses are making a comeback, and this pair here is so affordable!
