Peekaboo... I'm standing at a different part of the office
Close Up... without the face
What I’m wearing:
Top: Crimson red top with white bow print from GEORGE G21
Bottom: Navy jeggings from RED HERRING
Accessories: Big black plastic bangle from thestreetsofbangkok; Black & red handmade button ring (gift from my friend Keat); Long beady necklace from thestreetsofbangkok; Red “Chiclets” earrings from thestreetsofbangkok; handmade Red & Blue origami butterfly brooch from JuanitaTortilla
Footwear: Strappy brown/black platform wedges from MIMOSA (Far East Plaza)
These are new shoes. They are comfy and make my ugly feet look decent. Comfortable, light and sturdy so far. I haven’t lasted an entire day yet, so I have to wait and see. So cheap though! Paid less than SGD$25.
Close-up with face (I didn't do a good job of concealing my eyebrow zit)
One more for the road... Thanks for the photos Sara Fang!
Ooohh yes, and last night I was invited to a FRENCH CONNECTION fashion event that’ll be held at La Maison on August 6th. I love French Connection (as if you didn’t already know) *yip*
A quick one today because it’s rainy and I’m rather tied down with work. I chickened out wearing the dress with bare legs because it was a little chilly. Pearlyn wasn’t around to help me with pictures and Xianghui is away on a business trip… Christie, haven’t seen her today. Michelle… is kinda ill, and I didn’t want her to stand in the rain with me – hence the interesting angle. I peeked into the office while standing at the balcony (aka my photo studio).
Peekaboo I see you
What I’m wearing today:
Dress: Grey tailored tulip dress from ASOS
Belt: Purple stretchy belt that came with a RIVER ISLAND dress
Leggings: Bright purple tights (gift from Natalie’s trip to Italy last year)
Footwear: Gold and black diamond-patterned flats from MARTINA PINK
Wow 93 posts on clothes I wear! To celebrate the 100th post, I shall do a video log! Hmmm… any suggestions to what content?
Acting coy
Taking a peek at Janice who was gossiping about my vanity

Have to talk about one of my favourite products – the ALMAY Intense i-Color 03 Trio for Hazels! I got it off eBay (brand new) and you can see what it actually is here.
So here’s a step-by-step of how to use it (extended version ‘cos it’s a Sunday and I have some time to muck around):
Step 1 - L'OREAL Visible Radiance Renewing Gel Toner
Step 2 - BENEFIT That Gal Brightening Face Primer
Step 3 - BENEFIT Lemon Aid Color Correcting Eyelid Primer
Step 4 - MAKE UP STORE Care & Cover (Medium)
Step 5 - URBAN DECAY Surreal Skin Cream to Powder Foundation (Illusion)
Step 6 - ALMAY Intense i-Color (Apply PINK on eyelids)
Step 7 - ALMAY Intense i-Color (Apply BEIGE on browbone, under brow area)
Step 8a - ALMAY Intense i-Color (Apply BROWN along the crease)
Step 8b - ALMAY Intense i-Color (Use a smaller applicator or a Q-Tip to trace your crease)
Step 9 - BENEFIT Bad Gal Liner (Extra Black Waterproof)
Step 10 - Crimp your lashes. Bounce the eyelash curler a few times, jiggle it lightly.
I change the contents of my make-up pouch as often as I want to. Though my staples include my eyebrow pencil, eyeliner, concealer and pressed powder. This is just for mobile use and touch ups on the go.
Right now, I have:
MAC Select Sheer Pressed Powder – NC25
REVLON new complexion One-Step Compact Makeup – 03 sand beige
COULEUR INC Eyebrow Pencil – Light Brown 02
MAKE UP STORE Care & Cover – Medium
THE BODY SHOP Cheek Blush Blush Creme
ESTEE LAUDER Pure Color Crystal Lipstick – 305 Crystal Blush
PAUL & JOE Glistening Eye Colour – 004

MAYBELLINE Intense XXL Volume + Length – Brownish Black
BENEFIT Bad Gal Liner (Waterproof) – Extra Black
L’OREAL HiP mini eyeshadow brush
Eyeshadow from Korea, don’t know what brand – Marbled gold and brown flecks
With this, I can amp it up for parties right after work, or do a minor touch-up in the day or even get by spending a night out and waking up in random overnight situations…
