summer faves ☼

hello lovelies! i'm going to be sharing with you all about my updated beauty/fashion wish list for this post.

i've been watching a lot of fashion videos on youtube lately. and note that when i say fashion videos, i don't mean stuff like zoella or michelle phan because i find that those types of fashion videos are very.... umm.... i don't really know how to say it but it's sort of like you're just looking at things that they like and you're not venturing into your own style from watching other beauty gurus like them. i've been watching videos from fashion tv or vogue about models like lindsey wixson and alexa chung which i really just adore. so without further ado, let's start off with what's new in my beauty wish list. 

beauty wish list:

1. morange by m.a.c. 

this is an absolutely beautiful shade of orange by m.a.c. because it's so light and summery. it really gives a pop of colour to your face especially when you wear it with chocolatey brown eye shadow. i found out about this lipstick from watching the DSQUARED2 spring 2014 backstage video on youtube and i'm considering on recreating the look that they had on lindsey wixson for my school's prom this year. i can tell that it'll look stunning. i might substitute it for rendezvous by revlon because m.a.c. lipstick is quite pricey and the revlon one is quite reasonably priced and the quality is great too. 

what a babe!

2. m.a.c. pro sculpting cream in copper breach and richly honed

these are the same eyeshadows that lindsey is wearing and the same eyeshadows that they used for the DSQUARED2 spring 2014 fashion show. they mixed both these colours together for the eyes to create this beautiful chocolate look.

richly honed

3. eyeko - me & my shadow (eyeshadow pencil)

eyeko has recently teamed up with alexa chung to create a whole line of beauty products. alexa uses this eyeshadow for her signature simple and clear look that i am deeply inspired by. 

4. eyeko - eye do (eyeliner) 

this liquid eyeliner is the key to alexa's famous cateye. i currently use another liquid eyeliner called in2it which is pretty good but a little light so i end up having to colour many layers for my cateye. this eyeliner by eyeko is extremely good quality and the ink is dark which means that you don't have to colour on so many layers. in case you're wondering why eyeko's products have such cute names, it's because when alexa herself got to name all of them when they teamed up with her. 

5. rimmel moisture renew lipstick - nude delight

a perfect nude shade of lipstick that unlike other lipsticks out there, keeps your lips moisturized. i'm not sure if they sell it in my country but if they don't i'll just have to buy another brand that has a similar colour because i honestly just need this lipstick. i mean c'mon. it's perfect! 

so that's all the beauty products that are currently on my wish list. i don't use foundation or concealer a lot because it clogs up your pores and it makes all my pimples come out the next morning. also they aren't good for your skin so i avoid using them as much as possible. anyway, moving onto my fashion wish list. 

fashion wish list:

1. alexander wang white manuel mary jane pump

alexander wang is a fantastic designer and this mary jane pump is just super cute yet sophisticated. they have them in white, pink, and black. they cost a fortune though.... however, i'm planning on getting this look alike pair from charles & keith that i saw the other day

2. lia peekaboo blue romper

this romper is the same as the one on the left in the picture above. you can buy it from hello parry. it's still quite pricey but cheaper than buying from the actual alexander wang website. tip: use the discount code "freeshipping"

3. diamond print nude tights

super cute tights from romwe that'll go well with a my leather skater skirt and white cropped blouse from mango. 

4. verge girl blue knit crop sweater

i'm a huge fan of shelby hamilton and i saw her wearing this gorgeous knit from verge girl and i fell in love. i love shelby's style and i would definitely style this sweater just like how she did with a simple denim skirt and white birkenstock sandals. 

well that's about all for now. my mom just gave me a bunch of her old clothes today so maybe i'll make a haul post soon. till then, stay fab xx

fashion with a passion

guess what. i was too lazy to go to school today so i skipped and now i'm officially on a three week holiday. yay! the holidays actually officially start on wednesday but i was too lazy to attend school today and tuesday (which is tomorrow) is my school's sports day celebration which i sure as hell am not going to attend either so that means my holidays have started early and i'm only returning back to school two weeks after june. oh what a life! 

usually on long holidays like this, my family chooses to go travelling but it looks highly unlikely this time since my mum just bought a new car and i have an open day to attend at a school this coming saturday. plus, i have a lot of events i'm attending like my own school's international understanding day and a leo dinner held by my school that are both being held on the last week of the holidays. so technically that means i'm only fully available on the first week of june but both my parents might be busy with work. we were planning to travel to hong kong or shen zhen because i want to go on a wicked shopping spree because i'm in desperate need for new clothes and my mum wants to buy more tailor made cheong sams. (typical asian... i know) my dad just wants to go for the food because these places have the most amazing dim sum ever.

so in the meantime i will list down things that are currently on my shopping wish list:

1. parental advisory mesh top

this is super cool and edgy. i've had my eye on these babies for a long time now and i think that they would look fantastic in a pair of boyfriend jeans. i almost bought them a week ago online but then i found out that the website was a total rip off because they offered a 50% discount on any item but then increased the prices by double so even if you do use the discount you're still paying for the original price which was totally unfair. i emailed them my complaint and didn't get the tops but hey, at least they gave me a 30% off on my next purchase ☺

2. kenzo eye patterned dress and white blouse

i saw both of these on my tumblr dashboard and i instantly knew that i got to have them. the dress is so totally adorable and the white blouse with the white skirt (or shorts) looks clean cut and edgy. both these looks would go perfect with a pair of stylish black boots or sandals from windsor smith. top it off with a gorgeous faux fur coat and you'll look ready for the runway.

p.s.    you get bonus points if your hair is long and you style it into two little buns at the top of your head. it's totally cute and it earns you extra points for being daring and different in my books.







3. windsor smith shoes

do not even get me started on windsor smith shoes because i swear that i can go on forever and ever. first of all, lets just be clear that there is literally nothing that i do not want from the windsor smith shoe selection because lets be honest everything there is perfect. i would kill for their hologram platform sandals as well as their chunky white sandals. i would sell my soul for their boots and sacrifice my first born for the rest. go check out their shoes for yourself. i'll even be ever so kind to drop you the link here .

4. mary jane doc martens

i think that everyone that really know me is aware of my love for this wonderful thing called doc martens. i only have one pair which is the classic black one and i love it so much. one of my favourites shoes because it's so rugged and trendy that it matches many different styles that i have. i really want to get the mary jane docs because they're super duper cute. the mary jane docs would go absolutely prefect with a cute little ensemble with a striped shirt and overalls.




5. hello parry lilac coloured basic coat 

so last year i found this australian fashion website called hello parry on instagram and i instantly fell in love. their clothes like the zara inspired skort and leather bralette are magnificent and so is this coat. the colour is perfect and so is the design. coats make you feel like a boss ass bitch and they're cool. i've been eyeing on a good old coat for ages and this is the one that i want.


p.s.    you should really check out their website here. they have really great stuff.









so i guess that's all for now..... i'll be updating with a new post pretty soon since it's the holidays so stay tuned for more. xx
