Plastic or not plastic?


What is your first impression of these bags? They look exactly like those plastic bags you get in supermarkets right?!?! Yuph you're right! But, they are better! Why? Because they are re-usable! These bags aren't platic, they're nylon!
And you can take them when you shop around anywhere! Not just supermarkets but also when you shop for clothes you don't have to waste another plastic bag!
With a size of 10.5”x21.5", you can fit a whole lot of stuff in that tote!
Each bag is $28 for grabs! Check em out at fredflare.com!

Stiched Up

How cute are these chucks? I saw first saw them at teenvogue.com's Daily Specials..
They're $70 and they're part of the Product (RED) thing.. So, some of the proceeds go for the RED charity which supports the AIDS research thing in Africa..

21st July 2007

The 7th month of the year.. The 7th year of the millennium.. which also means the release of the 7th Harry Potter book! I can't wait! There's a special event in Plaza Senayan, Jakarta.. I'm still working on the permission from my mom.. but I hope I can go!
The dress code is "a lil bit of Harry Potter".. I'm not really sure about it, but I think it means we dress normal only with some touch of Harry Potter.. I think I'm just going to go over the top and dress like a Hogwarts student! Except I'll have my look "modernized".. I'm probably going to wear the skirt ALOT shorter with black stockings.. and with a grey cardie.. and I have this Gryffindor scarf I got years ago from a magazine, so I might wear that as well..
I'll post up a picture if I remember to bring my camera.. lolz..
make sure you GET that book !!!

first powder blush

Yes, I'm serious about my title of this post.. This is my first powder blush purchase.. After years of using cream blushes (I own about 6 of them.. and the contents are still far from empty), i finally bought some powder blush so that the color won't wash out too fast during the day... Like usual, I always do my research online and throughout magazines... And for my final decision, I choose MAC blush in Style as recommend by a makeup artist in Allure magazine.. So I went up to the MAC counter and I asked for "Style" and they said it's not stocked here! [ARRGHHH].. Instead of just walking away, I asked the counter-girl to recommend me some good blushes for me.. She recommend 3 colors.. First was a nice pink (think Chanel's fall runway look). But I thought I didn't like looking too fair.. So I asked her for a more brownish, peachy color to warm my skin up (Yes I am a picky customer who sometimes know more than the counter girls..). Then she recommend 2 other colors.. One lighter and one darker.. In the end I choose the darker one!
Check out this link for the color..

It's called "Peaches".. It looks really pale on the picture.. But it's actually much more vibrant that the color shown on the web.. Bottom line, I tried this color on my friend (who has a golden-dark skintone).. and the color is still flattering! great thing is, you can control the amount of color deposited on your cheeks..

Empty Luggage

long time since the last time i blogged! why? because I went to Singapore! I was actually expecting to buy a whole lot of new stuff.. but, I didn't.. Basically, sale items are from the previous season.. Second, the new fall items are not all displayed yet.. -_-''.. i hope i can go there again next month! I'm looking for good classic coats (like trenches but cropped because of the weather here).. I've been buying some nice feminine dresses lately.. And I really hate to look the same as other people in the malls (with leggings, flats, granny cardigan).. I don't think it's bad looking though. It's just that too much people are wearing it.. So my way of pairing those dresses is with a more masculine piece like military jackets (I'm aware they're not in right now.. but who cares), a parka cinched with a skinny belt (or sometimes i wear 2 skinny belts) or a vest...
One item I bought was an coral Armani Exchange minidress (can also be used as a top).. I was planning to buy the nice blue-green jewel tone.. but my size in that color is out of stock!
I was actually looking for grey skinnies.. but i couldn't find a good one.. so i didnt get it!

Faux Pearls... and chains...

Who's up for back-to-school shopping? I AM! ahhah...well.. I don't really do back-to-school shopping.. basically, i just SHOP. Anything good to buy, then I'll buy it as long as it doesn't break my wallet...
One thing I want to buy is a new tote! Sure backpacks are trendy right now, but I'm not into it.. So, I'll stick to cute totes.. ^^.. They're also more practical for my busy schedule! OK, enough about me.. Here's what I got to show you!
