I Can and I Will

J Crew Sweater/ J Crew Necklace/ Zara Pants

Catching up with posts I should have posted weeks ago. Wore this cozy white sweater from J Crew during thanksgiving weekend and added the signature J Crew necklace to complete the look. A little extra sparkle just spices everything up and makes such a comfortable outfit just enough less "casual". 

I am currently visiting the UK and will be posting pictures soon.

Retro Rock

As you may all know by now, a red lip is my favorite look of all. It is an accessory that makes anything look extra put together and refined. Whenever I am too busy to deal with what to wear, go with jeans and a plain t-shirt but add a touch of red lips and I am ready to start the day. This is what I am wearing for a Thanksgiving shopping day. I just blended in some brown eye-shadow in the crease and added a cat-eye liner for the eyes to tone down the red for a daily look that is clean but still chic.

Indulgence

Finulite Cellulite Smoothing Massage Mitt


This lotus seedpod looking massage is my newest indulgence for the legs. Pairing it with the Peace Love & Juicy Couture Body Lotion, I massage in a circular rotating motion. It releases stress from walking all day, exfoliates skin, and tones the legs. I significantly see a difference of leg slimming from the first use. Favorite item and now I can't stop.

Gold Sand

A simple golden shimmering eye to wear on a daily basis. I have recently been liking cream eye shadows as they only require the finger tips to apply, highly pigmented, have a more "smudged" effect, and is longer lasting. Honestly speaking, I am not familiar with Mary Kay products but I got these samples in the mail and decided to give them a dry. The two colors are extremely beautiful, both with a shimmery tint, but is not dramatic at all to wear in the daytime.   

Products used: 

RMK Foundation (102)
The Body Shop Concealer (02)
MAC Studio Fix Fluid (NC44)
MAC mineralize bronzer (Medium Deep)
YSL Semi Loose Powder
Mary Kay Cream Eye Color (Iced Cocoa)
Mary Kay Cream Eye Color (Beach Blonde)
Bobbi Brown Eyeliner Gel (Black Ink)
Mary Kay Lash Love Waterproof Mascara
Benefit Blush (Dandelion)
Chanel Lipstick (Royallieu)
Chanel Lipgloss (Scintillantes)

I tapped the Iced Cocoa shadow all over my eyelid and high lighted my inner corners of the eyes with Beach Blonde. Eyeliner, and the must mascara. I kept the lips neutral with a rosy color by Chanel Royallieu, and ended with Scintillantes Lipgloss. 

Having the hardest time trying to display the "whole face" look. I try to make it look less like a selfie as possible, but since my eyelids are so small, the colors don't show up well, and it looks like a selfie after all.  I will have to find a way to work this out.... expect improvements!

Windy



                                                                              BCBG MaxAzria Blazer/ J Crew Shirt/ Trafaluc Jeans/ Fergie Pumps/ Asos Earcuff/ Unknown Necklace

My brother and I decided to grab brunch this Saturday and came across a one hour and a half wait. Thus, we went across the street to take pictures... talking about time efficiency! 
I really like the fact that I am the only person in such light colors, everyone else have switched to the Autumn/Winter mode and dressed in blacks and brown. Not saying that dark colors are not beautiful, but it is never a bad idea to go the other way for a change. As you can see, it was also incredibly windy, blowing my hair and blazer in all directions..... I tried to work with it the best I could.
First time wearing this ear cuff I got from ASOS this summer. People on streets actually asked it is was an earphone. Rocking it like an earphone then.

By the way, brunch at Portage Cafe was delicious. It was definitely worth the wait......
