Cutout Booties

I'm currently searching for one of these cutout booties. They are perfect for Fall and Winter... with their dramatic look which somehow effortlessly composes a difficult combination of sexy and sophisticated.

What is in your bag?

What is in my bag? Beside a purse that is stuffed with cards and a little money, my cell phone, dental floss, drops for contact lens, and my little usb memory, I usually carry...

Beeswax Lip Balm by Burt's Bees.

Get it for $5.25 at Amazon.com. This is GREAT GREAT GREAT as it is the only thing that works for my permanently dried lips.

$22.50 Sheer Gloss Lipstick (S2) from Shiseido

This is the most popular lipstick that is sold by Shiseido in Saigon as I have heard. High-quality and moisturize your lips so you don't have to worry about any damage when use everyday. The color (S2-clear orange) is neutral & fresh. It fits all ages and make you look lively without overdoing it like some other lipsticks.

$7 Thermal Spa Water by Vichy

You can buy a smaller size and put it in your bag. Spray this on your face in the middle of the day to feel refreshed and waken up without actually washing it.

$35 SUNGLASSES P.. MIAMI C by Mango; except mine is black, not white :)

necklace is a charmer

I love to accessorize with different types of necklace - whatever it's made of (silver, stones, white gold, ect..) Like all girls, I have my own collection - from cheap to expensive stuff, but it's never enough. Different with bracelets which I think most of the time, are better bold, necklaces should be small and delicate. I hate it when people let the big necklaces wear them. Here are some charmers on my wish list right now...

$18 Multi Tasker Necklace from Roxy

$15.50 Peace Charm from American Eagle


$89.99 Crystal Necklace of Arwen by Lord of The Rings

stop purplizing everything

i'm sick of people wearing purple all the time... everywhere everytime i turn around, there it is - the color only works if you know how to sprinkle it on you, not shower it.

I bet one day people will look back and wonder what they were thinking wearing this color all over them...

headbands

I found a new interest - headbands, since my hair was cut short and curled :) also since I started watching Gossip Girl and Lipstick Jungle.. You can almost never can catch Blair without one, and Victory Ford looks absolutely chic in a headband.

a scene from Gossip Girl where EVERYONE wears a headband

gorgeous Victory Ford in her signature red headband

I just got myself a similar red one from Evita Peron at a sweet 70%-off price (from 9 hundred something to 290k) at Parkson :). Beside, I also got a super cute dark purple one at 30% off. The thing about Evita headband is that you feel nothing when you wear them - extremely comfortable, yet they stick to your hair and not fall down like other cheap stuff.

missing Victoria Secret :(

The thing I miss most from the States? I don't want to say shopping, but definitely the variety it has - basically every brand name, every store, everywhere.

5-for-$25 panties from VS is one of my most favorite, just wish someone could buy these and bring them to VN for me. If Singapore doesn't yet have a VS store, when will Vietnam do?
