*~Mirror, mirror on the wall...~*

So this is by far my favourite eyeliner...last through the day and most importantly, it doesn't smudge at all!! plus i'm terrible at applying...haha this makes it easy and it's fast drying as well *i've no patience lol...* ~~n_n so i'm super glad i found this~~

Creer Beaute Oscar Impact & Cool Eyes Eyeliner - Black - USD$14.00



my sister bought me this from HK...BUT i don't have great reviews for this one x_x I like how it dries matte BUT I find it harder to apply (again probably coz i'm really not good at this....but 0_0) it smudges after only a few hours so it's a bit of a pain... so yeah I don't think I would recommend this~~


Kiss Me Heroine Make 3D Liquid Eyeliner 2.5g - Highly Black - USD$14.30

*~Milk Tea eBay Feature~*

so being the huge eBey junkie that i am...i'm considering doing a daily eBay find post *maybe? lemme know what you guys think*~~
recreating looks from magazines are always fun~~esp from jap mags n_n~~ they take the most unrelated pieces and somehow make them work! haha...i should take notes :P
anyway i'm a huge cardigan fan as you can probably tell from my A&F cardigans obsession...and i've actually been on the hunt for a heart cardigan~~i believe i spotted some from topshop awhile ago...but they haven't put out any for awhile now *sad*
today...*after writing a 5-hr practice exam x_x* i stumbled across this starry cardigan that look quite cute~~i never would pair it with a red skirt but it definitely works on the model~~so i thought it deserve some honourable mention on my blog haha...so here goes~~


i know shipping is ridiculous eh? haha but yeah a lot of asian ebay sellers put up a really low bid price and a really high shipping price (probably attract buyers and pay ebay less fees?) so it's actually part of the price of the item...so you definitely should factor that in when doing comparison shopping online...it's also the reason why you never see a huge discount that you would expect from combined shipping like normal sellers...but usually it's still a good bargain~~



lol might as well feature this one too...this dress kind of grew on me...not really my style...but the model makes it look adorable and i love the white socks+pumps pairing!!



*~Banquet Dresses~*

i'm going to my high school friend's wedding this saturday...and got me thinking about dresses for the banquet (i'm probably going to wear my topshop dress) but here's a couple that would've been just as nice n_n

Luminious Lady Dress - USD$27.00
i think black and white dresses are super classy...

In Dove With You Dress - USD$36.99 (originally $74.99)

i've spotted a few dresses in this style this yr...i love the giant bow in front~*

Oatmeal Cookie Dress - USD$24.50
again loving the bow detail...this one is a lil bit summer-y but the poofiness is too hard to resist *i'm into princess-y dresses lol*

*~Product of the Day: KnockOut Matte Nail Polish~*

KnockOut is by far the best matte nail polish ever!! I love the whole matte nail polish trend...and makes any colour looks great!! I've found their matte top coat really works with just one thin coat --> it's super amazing!! As much as KnockOut (KO) has some great matte colours, the nail polish itself is really quick thick (doesn't take that long to dry BUT i still find it a little bit hard to apply)~~so that's why I definitely highly recommended the matte top coat because it applies like a regular clear coat except it dries matte and you can pick the colour you like and use the nail polish you already have (since I have to admit KO is a tad pricey at $19...) You can find it at aritzia or urban outfitters stores n_n or online at directly from the company at http://koknockout.com/ or online stores such as www.drugstore.com

FLATTE TOP


Here are my top 3 favourite colours that I've from KnockOut:

*~Mock Look For Less: Top Shop Edition~*

i know that a lot of blogs do look for less from online retail stores but ebay is actually a super good source for look for less items as well~~and usually for a better price!
i absolutely love topshop *esp when i was in england...* here's a couple of good mock looks that i've found on ebay n_n to share with you guys!!



*~...Milk Tea Sale Watch...~*

*sigh* being in Canada sometimes suck...because we can't take advantages of online sales~~*like the tory burch private sale right now (add tory burch on fb and you'll see it grr...reva ballet flats for only $118!!) So Forever 21 U.S. is having a pretty good sale...here are a few good items that i spoted that i'm really hoping we'll see some on the Canadian site soon~~

Pleated Ruffle Front Tank - USD$6.99
this definitely reminds me of pieces from club monaco or banana republic and is a great piece to mix and match with outfits for work or a casual look

Beauty Mini 1-Piece Nail Polish Set - CAD$6.00
7-Nail Polish Set - USD$5.00

forever 21 actually has pretty decent nail polish and some of their colours are really spot on~~
i love the pinks and greys n_n...this is a great set and i love the two different colour themes~
i don't know why they name the exact same product differently on the two sites...>_<>

Polka Dot Trapeze Tank - USD$7.99
o...another great piece that would go really well as a matching piece...especially with a black skirt for the summer~~

Geo Yoke Tank - USD$9.99

lol...i guess i've tank top theme going...haha this just caught my eye as well n_n


Bow Front Lace Top - USD$13.99

ok so lol more bow-ie goodness...haha this kind of grew on me a little bit...thought it was hideous at first but i see how some girls can work it *especially on a night out*~~and for $13.99...it's definitely not bad!!
