the best things come in small packages

Went to Mindado for dinner the other day, but when we discovered that the wait was gonna be nearly an hour long, I dragged Jeff into Ulta next door and picked out a small bunch of things :)

Amazing Cosmetics Amazing Concealer To Go in Tan Medium

New York Color Blushable Creme Stick in Berry New Yorker and Plaza Pink

"did it hurt when you fell from heaven?"





Excuse the cheesy pick-up line. I've done a bunch of posts on the VS Fashion Shows in the past, therefore I am running out of witty titles! So these are some backstage photos from none other than photographer Tommy Ton, who also covered the show last year for style.com. I'm very happy to see some of my favorite models returning to the runway this year :)

How many days until the 30th?

a little retail therapy

A little blogging before bed~

I know American Apparel is suffering and all right now, but that's better for us who now get to buy their stuff for 50% online!! I ordered from two different sales on Swirl, which is another one of those sites similar to GiltGroupe and HauteLook.

My gets: Dolman Sleeve Hoody, Leggings & Crop Leggings, Printed Double-U Mini Dress, and Rib Raglan.

I really like ASOS. However, shipping from the UK is a pain in the ARSE. Not only does it take about a month to get here, but twice I've had problems with my orders. The first time my package was lost in the mail so they had to send me another one. This time, my order was wrong and they sent me someone else's shoes. I originally ordered a really cute pair of leopard-print flats but now they're out of stock so they have to refund my order instead :(

These were the shoes they sent me - I would consider keeping them if they were my size!

And I finally got my ViVi magazines. I haven't read it in like two months! The November one came with this fuzzy pouch thing that reminds me of the dust thingys in Spririted Away! I don't what I could keep in it except my camera. It's really soft though so I like petting it.

shine on


I've been reluctant to try out the whole maxi skirt trend, but I love these sparkly ones.
You know I'm a sucker for anything shiny.
Teehee.

i can see your halo






It was the Victoria's Secret Fashion show tonight in NYC! I love all the sparkle and glamour, and hope that my favorite models will be there. But since the most of the world will have to wait until November 30 to see it on TV, I'm going to share these photos of last year's looks.

Well, there will probably be photos online tomorrow so stay tuned ;)
