maquillage

so alot of you guys have asked me what my daily beauty regimen is.. so i thought i would share it with you..
my 2 favorite mascaras, the Lancôme Hypnose (volume) and the Smashbox Bionic (length) – they both do miracles.
compacts and lipstick, i will always and forever go with Chanel – they have the perfect shades of reds.
as for the subtle scent, Bulgari is currently my number one choice for eau de parfum.
that is all for now! xo

so my girlfriend and i were out and about on lunch – and we were sitting at a bench letting the busy financial district’s traffic pass on by while we started to play a game.

you know that obnoxious game “bunch buggy beetle – no punch back”? – so we made up our own and said for every color someone wears she punches me and for every black someone wears i punch her – well after about 5 minutes of the game – the conclusion was that we need more color in our lives, because her arm will bruise after tonight. sorry dah~ling!

or otherwise – let black be a color!

well here’s to red lipstick! – the only “color” in my life! xo

my one to-do mission for this fall is to find the ultimate leather jacket – whether it be $200 to $2000 – i don’t care just so long as it fits perfectly and it comes with some sort of ruffles and studs and shoulder detailing with just the right amount of crop – i will buy it in a heart beat.

can anyone find something of a cross breed between the two images???? seriously.

BoA the korean pop-sensation who’s dominated the Asian Market since her early childhood (at just eleven years old) – is now tapping into the American markets! congrats! and now she’s gracing the cover of July’s 2009 issue of Nylon Magazine for Korea and sexing up her image.

from sweet and innocent, to pocahontas, to feminine, to punk, to a young lady – this girl has played all the roles.

it’s amazing how much she’s accomplished so much – and she’s only 22 years young! but a 11 year-veteran in the music business.

so i am truly 50/50 on this one..

as you all know by now – my obsession for shoes is the obvious – but was never a seeker of the Choo’s – so this shall be interesting

while my utter disappointment with the Matthew Williamson collection has not been forgotten – I cannot help but wonder if this is another one of their “crying wolf” media stint..

the collaboration is another addition to the many collaborations done to date (from Karl Lagerfeld, Stella McCartney, Roberto Cavalli, Viktor & Rolf, Comme des Garçons, Matthew Williamson)

president of Jimmy Choo – Tamara Mellon said that she felt honoured to be among the fashion greats to be affiliated with H&M and quotes Mellon “It’s such a privilege to design a collection to appeal to fashion savvy, street smart women.. Jimmy Choo will bring H&M a sophisticated, fashion forward, accessible and glamorous collection – the perfect party pieces to wear out at night.”

Jimmy Choo brand has become quite popular with glamour & diva-dome. The label was co-founded in 1996 by Malaysian-born Choo and former Vogue accessories editor Tamara Mellon, and it’s become a major global upmarket brand with stores in major cities.

Everything from flats to knee high boots from $99-299, and handbags from $59-299 and sequined tops and dresses..

it’s a bittersweet treat (just the day before my birthday) launching nationwide on November 14th 2009 at selected H&M stores.

do i plan on waiting in line for this launch? only time will tell.. to be continued..
