cheapo

purchased some things that i needed that were on sale (i usually wait till they go on sale *cheapo)wanted to try out the eucerin redness relief moisturizer to help the redness on my face (it has a green tint which is supposed to neutralize redness). i like how it neutralizes my whole face like how a foundation does, but it doesn't cover up all the redness. also got some almay makeup remover wipes (bogo free woo!) and it does it's job. i just hate the smell (nutty+cheap alcohol=bleh!) and how tiny they are. also got nyc bronzer in sunny to contour my chubby cheeks : ]
finally found a pair of polka dot tights that are within reach (at Target) and affordable ($7). also got a garter belt at target as well.a beautiful sunrise. a beautiful start to a crappy day.
went out with good friends to Macaroni Grill which made me really excited because i love eating there, but this trip was bleh. just look at my uncooked margherita pizza:
cardigan: American Eagle, romper: Urban Outfitters, jeans: Walmart, wedges: Urban Outfitters

nomnom choco and wasabi

had a nice valentine's day rushing to finish the boypren's gift, eating (not that great) all you can eat sushi, nomming on onsale chocolates and watching labyrinth.
made these dolls (a monkey and a kidnapper) from the book Cute Dolls by Aranzi Aronzo. i want to keep them for myself!

v-day outfit:
cardigan & romper: UrbanOutfitters, tights: Target, shoes: GoJane
valentine's day goodies:
wedges are so fun! (mind the sleepiness here :])
sweater: thrifted, jeans: H&M, wedges: American Eagle

and finally picked up this blazer that i got from thrifting from the drycleaners. is paying $50 for alterations on one jacket and dry cleaning 3 of them expensive? i don't know, but it felt expensive to me :[.

in love with this headband from Forever21. i just hate it when you see classmates from high school that you know of, but are not friends with. it's just like: *stare at eachother and go on with own business. ugh!

headband: Forever21, cardigan: UrbanOutfitters, Jeans: H&M
also got some thigh high stockings from ebay seller Dolly's Closet. now all i need is a garter belt :/
feeling inspired by the little girls of bioshock 2 :] (the nyx mega shine lipgloss in Garnet is a nice lip stain!)
nomnomnom delicious milk tea pudding and wasabi crackers!

goodies

went to San Francisco last weekend to watch an interesting (but boring once the numbers started) class on solar panels. headed to Japantown afterwards and got some goodies:
Shiba inu calendar! Its was 75% off, so i got it for $3.75. they were selling these adorable bags in Kinokuniya and my sister got me one (she has a love affair with bags -_-)
the bag filled with the goodies i got the following day:cardigan & romper from Urban Outfitters. Bra/Bustier from H&M. the guy ringing me up was telling me how his friend bought it and wore it with a skirt and blazer and how hot she was lol. i was thinking of returning it because i didn't know what to wear it with, but when i found out that the straps were removable i was ecstatic! planning to wear it with the cream cardigan and a black high waisted skirt for valentine's! ;]also got these two nail polishes at Urban Outfitters. the one on the left is Matte Nude and on the right is Matte Orange. they dry very quickly since they're matte and i love the orange one, but the nude is an ugly tan color :[
Goodies from MAC:
MAC Sheertone Blush in Peaches, Cremeblend Blush in Optimistic Orange & Nail Lacquer in Coconut Ice
it can't decide whether to be pink or peachy, but it's mostly pink.
now what makeup look to wear for valentine's?
