Glow by Lady E

As you all know, I’m on bed arrest. I can only get down from my bed for a few times a day. I can only go down twice a day. I’m pretty much stuck in my room for the next 2 months or so. I miss going out, eating out, doing the groceries, visiting Watsons, going window shopping and just hanging out at the mall to get away from this heat. I miss Saturday afternoons spent with my husband in coffee shops or in a gelateria. You won’t believe how much time I spend over the Internet, playing Candy Crush and other Facebook games which I didn’t have any interest in before. I also look forward to opening my email every morning. I check every single one of them so now I have a very organized inbox. Nothing gets left unread. Seeing as I can’t go out and do some shopping, I’ve assembled my pretend Forever 21 shopping list. These are new arrivals from the brand and I would buy them if I could go out. From left to right, top to bottom 1. I love maxi dresses! 2. Love the retro print on this dr...

I got this palette as part of a gift from my best friend Ahne. This is how it looks brand new I’ve been using this palette since my birthday. I took this out of town and literally road tested it. I was really surprised with this palette. I was expecting it to be so-so because it’s from Forever 21 but it turned out really good. The colors last the whole day with a good primer. I’ve never used this without a primer, by the way. I use Too Faced Shadow Insurance. I’ve used all the colors and it doesn’t matter if it’s light or dark. They both last and the pigmentation is the same. The light colors are shimmer while the dark ones are matte.  I only have a problem with the pink shadow on the upper right. It became like this: See the center? The texture is different. I don’t know what happened. Maybe my brush still had some brush cleaner in it when I swiped that color. Anyway, the pigments are bigger now and I have to flatten them out to apply them properly. In spite of this, the ...

I never got around to posting the rest of my Forever21 shopping trip finds. Finally kicked the lazy bug so here it is: Forever 21 Haul I bought a skirt, a gray shirt dress, a cerulean top and a pine green racerback top. I chose these pieces because I can mix and match them with what I have in my closet. I wouldn’t wear the shirt dress alone as it’s too body hugging and too showy in front (you know what I mean).I always wear it with something else. It’s very versatile though. I can wear it with jeans, as a dress, with a skirt, etc. I wanted to buy another one but they only had it in one color. Here’s how I wore them: I couldn’t fit my whole body inside the frame that’s why I’m headless here. = ) The only thing that bugs me is the shirt dress keeps going up whenever I walk. It’s probably because it’s still new that’s why it’s still too tight at the bottom. I’m hoping to wear it out a little so it adjusts to my body. What’s your favorite versatile piece of clothing?
