stop making me blush =P

    what is one make-up product that Japanese girls can't live without??.....ya you'd think it would be false lashes rite? BUT it's not...IT IS actually BLUSH! that is seriously what makes those Japanese girls get that innocent super cute kinda look! I swear....it's truly magic.
    The blush colors that are sold in Japan are incredibly different compared to Vancouver. Working at a cosmetic store where I used to play around with all sorts of colors, I'd almost say the color "desire" from NARS comes close (true pink)............BUT not really........................ the blushes are like transparent pigments! though they look like solid pink colors, when you put them on it blends into the skin. The end result: it looks as if we produced that blushed look ourselves! Currently the best rated blush is this one from CANMAKE: approx 8 dollars canadian




     blend both the colors with a blush brush to get a more prismatic look!


    teehee!!

Devil wears PRADA.............IN PINK!

    I got my inspiration from the movie "devil wears Prada".
     I swear after that movie, when the word Prada was mentioned you'd think of a sexy but devilish image (well the poster) and so I'm gonna defy that by an opposite image with softer colors and small detailing to make you look more angelic? K, that definitely was not the word to explain it, k maybe cute would be a better choice of words.
    ANYWHO since PINK in all shades are classic spring colors, that steered my look into this direction.


    love at first sight, my Prada


    the color is a bit washed out, it is actually more of a creamy pink, hence the picture in the corner!

    DETAIL in an outfit is what makes an outfit truly ORIGINAL

    numero one: the PINK BOW in my hair! (F21 Japan)


    numero two: my CUPCAKE necklace! (Betsy Johnson)


    Accessories you can go crazy with and get away with it!
    From the small details, a.k.a bow hair clip, cupcake necklace and floral tank the outfit isn't just a CUTE outfit but  cute-CHIC and with the Prada shoes, cute-chic-ELEGANT<3

    cardi: silence and noise from Urban Outfitters / tank: talula 

    numero three: LIP COLOR

    Hey  make-up is an accessory too! so with this outfit here's some PINKs that goes! light for day and brighter for night!
    I have super small, thin and pale lips so it is hard for me to pull off bright colors, even when I have simple eye make-up, hence my brightest pink ain't really that bright. Also I know there are many many MANY pinks out there so I say go explore, but heres what looks good on me!!(I put two sets of lighting)

    Indoor lighting:


    Outdoor lighting:


     and here are the lipstick/gloss brands:

    bright ----- light

    Lacome color fever #312 lipstick with Candy doll gloss(japan)
    Lavshuca lipstick(japan) with Shu Uemura PK 33S gloss
    Dior Addict High Shine #260 with Bourjois Max. 3D shine #62 gloss
    YSL Rouge Volupte  #2 lipstick with Chantecaille Mirth gloss

    When I wear lipstick, I hafta finish off with a lip gloss, its like the cherry on top, it just doesn't look the same without it!

    TIP: if you want the TRUE color of the lipstick, get some concealer to take down your original lip color! I use a "lip concealer" but regular foundation or concealer will do!


    I would love to hear what kinda detailing you do to your outfit!!!

modernized parachute pants = Harem pants?


    I know, I know Harem pants have been around for a while now, and it had its big break last year.....but till recently I had called them modernized parachute pants...because it was obvious that the original template for these so called Harem pants were the parachute pants from the late 70's! but google saved me from potential embarrassment and taught me that it wasn't called that anymore.....

    getting back on topic!! I was super iffy on them for the longest time....a.) cause I'm a bit wide on the lower half of my body and I didn't want to accentuate the unflattering parts of myself and b.) last year when it first hit the stores in Canada, I was a bit chicken to start the trend reason stated in "a.)", even though it had already made its debut in asia and the states long ago. 

    but I was totally in the closet about how much I loved these pants! how it pairs up with absolutely every colored blazer and with the right outfit, gives off this elegant look that I'm obsessed with! so since last year I have been going to many, many, MANY stores and trying on gazillion pairs of different shaped Harem BUT always had no luck....it just DID NOT WORK....AND JUST when I was going to GIVE UP.....couple days ago, I went into H & M and found one. I tried it on practically with my eyes closed and peaking through one eye to look at myself in the mirror....that was how nervous I was.....(all those failed attempts to find the perfect Harem pant had scared me)  BUT to my SURPRISE it didn't look too shabby, and for $30, I was SOLD! but after doing this shoot, maybe it was the pants or how it fit on me but I couldn't help but think, no matter how much they claim they modernized the style of these so called "Harem pants" I think in my mind it will always be parachute pants....... 

    Nonetheless! I put together an outfit with these Harem Pants:






    blazer: Smythe / top: Zara / freshwater pearls: gift from China / HAREM PANTS :) H & M / shoes: Luxury Rebel from holts / bag: miu miu


    NOW my question IS, was it hard for you guys to find the perfect HAREM PANTS?
