It's called retail THERAPY

Dress from ASOS - got it in a 12 was WAY too big and then had to go to Far East plaza to alter it for SGD30 but Choo Alteration Center did a kickass job - basically everything I'm buying is to go with this dress which I'm planning to wear after my last exam for a Christmas dinner party and then party-partying...


Bought this belt to cinch the dress, because it looks better from Forever 21 at Orchard XChange. Ten bucks - totally worth it.


Kinda boring but I got this Cyber Colors Zero Pore Primer from Sasa. I dunno if its any good but Cyber Colors is generally good and the Majorca Majolica one I have makes me look insanely white because it has SPF in it. Plus I'm so tanned now so it doesn't work. It was on sale from SGD25.90 to SGD20.72 so I thought that was cool.


Again kinda boring but I got a neutral-ish lipliner in Clover Pink from The Body Shop. I checked out Maybelline's and Bourjois' but I didn't like them. It's not super neutral nudy its more like pinky brown. It was SGD18.90 - no discount.


Ok fun stuff! Got fake eyelashes - also Cyber Colors. They were SGD8.90 and one free! I'm going to wear them so I can try and recreate Lisa Eldridge's pretty makeup look.


More fun stuff! I got the Bourjois Effet 3D Lip Gloss in Rose Gold. The idea is that it will go over the lipliner to be super shiny and pretty. Kinda expensive at SGD23.50. But it was recommended by Lisa Eldridge so...


And these GORGEOUS ear-rings are from DIVA. I saw them and I was like this is it! I love them, they were SGD17.


Bought these two t-shirts from Esprit today, I got them both at 20% off so it was supposed to be like SGD50 but then it was SGD40. I love them - the purple one fits well and the pink one is just so me...

That's it! Hopefully this is the end to my mad shopping urges :)

Epiphany Friday

In descending order of how huge the epiphany was:

5. I am born in the wrong era. I've been watching Pan Am for the past two days and no one can deny that I wouldn't look good in one of those tight-ass dresses and with winged eyeliner. The 1960s man. Those were the days. I mean not if I wasn't a white American though, because if I wasn't that would be shittay...

4. I am a hardcore procrastinator. As in I should have been writing my paper, but instead I was watching Pan Am. To the point where I had to do my final powerpoint presentation in under 30 minutes. It was good presentation though.

3. I can really eat a lot of food. It's just that majority of the time I have intense will power.

2. I really am happier when I don't like someone. I don't feel anxious or get that choking constricty feeling.

1. I look WAY better when I don't line my eyes the whole way round! It looks way better just on top because I think my eyes are getting smaller or maybe the rest of my face is getting bigger?? Is that two epiphanies?!?!

Watch Lisa Eldridge do no eyeliner on the bottom lid:

I'm sick and procrastinating

I have 3 final research papers due next week. A take-home exam due the Monday the week after and the last of my final research papers due that Wednesday. And I'm blogging. While transcribing in-depth interviews for another one of my final projects. Also I'm sick. Not I'm going to die sick but like low grade fever, painful throat, super duper tired kind of sick. Which I really can't afford seeing as I have basically the majority of everything due this next week.

I think that my blog doesn't have a focus, like its about me but not so much about anything else. Don't think I can be a cosmetics blogger - coz I've gone off that. Can't really do lifestyle because my life isn't exactly a baller lifestyle. Also I like clothes but I just don't think I'm one of those people who really understands how to wear clothes. Ok enough of that.

I don't have time to actually post so I'm just going to embed music I've been enjoying. Some of its quite shameful.

Ghetto Love - Karl Wolf - this guy is like MTL's answer to Shawn Desman. Not that an answer was needed or anything...


Wherever You Will Go - Charlene Soraia - so good


Bedardi Raja - Delhi Belly - this is good, kinda slow but nice


5 O'Clock - T-Pain feat Wiz Khalifa and Lily Allen - what a great remix of this song


Will blog later when time and mood permits!
