*~ModCloth Rant~*

ModCloth carries some amazing clothes but i've found that their prices tend to be a little higher (around 20%?) than other online retailers...here are a few sites that sometimes carry the same stuff at a lower price (and often in a different colour if you wanted more selection), so it's definitely good to do a little comparison shopping!
- www.lulus.com ---> i actually found out about this on www.perezhilton.com and you can use the discount code " PEREZ1" to get an extra 15% off n_n

*~New Wallet: STNY by Samantha Thavasa~*

I'm super duper excited/happy about getting a new wallet...muahah...it's STNY by Samantha Thavasa
I've been wanting a new wallet ever since my old one got stolen a couple weeks back and I don't want to use it anymore x_x haha YAY~~

lol it is pink but yeah bad webcam lighting~~it looks like what it does in the magazine...gotta love the white polka dot background too~~

it's super girly...and has monogram pattern which i'm a sucker for
but the best news is that...while samantha thavasa's goodies are super adorable, they're also super pricey *sigh*
lol BUT that's why I love japanese magazines~~
the wallet came free with July 2010's Steady~~jackpot!! lol...definitely a good day for me...
haha the magazine actually have like 10 pages of samantha thavasa goodies featured and the makeup bag/pencil case with the same pattern was around 5,500 yen 0_0
so I highly recommend it if you're a fan~~the wallet is big and room...n the quality is pretty good as well *not cheap looking, actually look like their regular collection*...you can probably buy the magazine for USD$15 or CAD$20 in those places that sell japanese magazines...or ebay is another option *~which is going to cost a little more but i say it's still worth it - just click on the link below~*


p.s. the magazine is a pretty good read too *esp for girls like me who just started working~*...and they usually give out decent freebies...i think i might pick it up from now on~~

*~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!!

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

Oatmeal Cookie Dress - USD$24.50
