Very pretty shoes! Ordered on 26th Oct & received on 28th Oct. They fit perfectly! Can now leave these at work as emergency shoes when my shoes get soaked in the rain on the way to work. LOOOVE the design!
Shower steamer smells nice without even unsealing the item, excited to gift it to my friend! Thank you so much! :)
This is my 2nd purchase! Material is of good quality and comfortable to wear. Definitely no regrets, do try it out!
A lot of different relatable emotions! From happy, sad, sarcastic and angry. Applicable to all different backgrounds!
Bought these very cute gnomes for my potted plants and thank you for the free gift!
My 3 year old son really loves these for bath time, even more than bath bombs
I loved it as it was my favourite snack when i was young and it looks cute as a product
I think it’s a great item. I was having a headache on what to buy for my female colleague’s christmas present for secret santa. I was looking through novelty items and i saw this desk sign and i thought it is perfect! She does sales and she always has goals to hit so i thought it would look great on her desk. I just decided to buy it figuring it would be great for her to have something like this.
Plus I was left like one week to buy something and the delivery was fast! Made it just in time for me to give it to my colleague!
This purchase was a rushed buy as I needed them urgently for an overseas trip. What was amazing was their warm and prompt service. Not only were they responsive in their communication, I also received my order very quickly. Thanks again.
