Saying Hi!

My crazy kitties want to say hi to you lovely ladies! This is Gwen, she’s the bunso and the tiniest of the bunch.  They’re the same ones you saw being nursed by their mom on my doorway. They’re all grown up. Gwen is very sweet and she’s my little masterchef! Whenever I’m in the kitchen, cooking, she makes it a habit to stay between my feet. Then she follows me to the ref then back to the kitchen then to the water dispenser then back to the kitchen. She likes watching me chop ingredients and overall, watch me cook.  MB also can’t get her out of the kitchen when he’s doing the dishes. I told him that she will go once he leaves the kitchen and true enough, she does every time. She likes lying down on my foot (and MB’s foot). Here, she was busy playing with my slipper so I decided to get my camera. She stopped playing when she saw the camera. She became suplada . Here are more blurred shots of Gwen: Vampire Gwen. She’s not mean. She was about to yawn when I took this shot. ...

Accessories Shopping!

Mom took me accessories shopping sometime last week: This Aqua piece will be available in Hyphen soon! I love this necklace from Kashieca! I asked MB to buy it for me but he said he was saving up for our trip. It’s okay, mom got it for me. This is my favorite of the bunch: It’s so rocker chic! And it fits my tiny wrist quite snugly! After that, my mom and my sister went clothes shopping at Debenhams. I only asked her to buy me this belt and the scarf. And just for kicks, I added the new Kleenex boxed tissue set in the photo. =P Impromptu midweek shopping is the best!

Nouveau Monde and FOTD

This is one of my favorite buys at NARS. This is the Nouveau Monde (new world) Duo. You can use this duo for a day or night look. I used this for an EOTD but I couldn’t get the colors to show on cam. [Any tips Charles? = )] So I just took an FOTD: I love the fact that it lasts long. I don’t have to re-apply several times throughout the day and at night, I just made the colors darker, blending the green shade towards the lavender to create a somewhat smoky eye effect. And I’m using the gray bow headband here (from a previous post). I think this is my first FOTD. I’ll try to post more in the future. Have you tried the NARS Spring 11 collection yet?

An Old EOTD

I unearthed these photos from my February archives. I think I used the NARS 15th Anniversary Palette for this: I posted these because I know a lot of you ladies out there love neutrals!

Of Bags and Purses

YSL I am a big fan of bags and purses. I used to keep at least 20 of them at a time but now that I’m older (and wiser) I only buy bags that I know will last me a long time. So I gave away most of my bags and slowly rebuilt my collection. Here are some that I’ve recently acquired during  my trip abroad. Tsumori Chisato Cats When I was younger, I used to just buy this and buy that bag if I find it nice. So, there will be times when I end up not using a bag because I have so many already and I tend to stick to a few bags because of the hassle of organization. Now I know better.   Anna Sui Marc by Marc Jacobs I’m loving the Marc and Anna bags as they are so great with shopping! I gave the YSL bag to mom. I have yet to use the Cats bag. I can’t wait to buy more once this shopping diet is over!

Still a Blog Sale!

I have more items for you ladies! Givenchy Play for Women, 30 ml. Selling price is Php1,500. Still 50-70% full.

I’m selling this for Php1,600. It’s also new. I haven’t touched it yet.

Blog Sale!

I’ve been accumulating a lot of stuff lately and have been neglecting a lot of my makeup so I’ve decided to put up a blog sale! Here are the items for sale: This is my Fashion 21 palette, which is my very first palette. It’s been sanitized. The useless applicators are missing though. It comes in a pouch: I got this for almost Php400 and I’m now selling it for Php150. It’s great for makeup newbies. Next, are these colored and basic liners: As you can see, there’s still a lot of product there.
