The vertical prints around the shoulders give Dries blouse a princess sleeves' look and accentuate the neck.

You know you can never get rid of certain old clothes; one day, they inevitable come back into vogue. 
^6^

Finally I have time stopping by Jill Stuart beauty for a test "make-up"!!!
Photobucket
I bought a purple eyeliner to highlight my lens/eyes, and gold tone w/ sparkles nail polish for a summer fun look. 
( lower right )The taro, dark lavender jelly textured eye shadow is so easy and moist when applied on the eyelid. My experience is that it almost is impossible to apply too much!!! 
However, the jelly eyeshadow might dry out faster in the continental climate....such as USA!! @@

The far right is charcoal.

I was on the verge of spending money on those yummy color blushes yesterday.


Photobucket

I only applied the far left two eye shadows on my eyelid and around the corner of tear gland. 
It really is very natural looking but somehow the shimmering color around the corner of right eye didn't show under the flash!

Have a good laugh!!

Hi Rachel,

Don't you just love Jill Stuart makeup? I wish we could get them in the U.S.... The colors are very flattering on Asian skin.
hey, Isabel: yes, thanks for telling me about that awesome eyeshadow as I had a hard time deciding which color combi. to buy. :) However, the jelly eyeshadow is pure fun as it probably does dry out very fast in north Cal. ^^

How is your summer plan? I got your shirt the other day and I think so far there is only new Zealand and Taiwan have her boutique where you can physically see her stuff. o.w. you have to go online shopping!!!

I love Jill Stuart make-up! Don't worry about the eye jelly, if you close the lid tightly, it will be fine. I have too much Jill Stuart make-up! You have to try the blushes! They are highly pigmented and very pretty on! That said, the colors in the different blush palettes are pretty similiar. If you like blue based pinks, then #2 is for you. Most of the other blush shades are pink with strong peach or red undertones. I personally like #2, #7 and #11. Have fun shopping!!!!
Thanks, Michelle:

I will give it a try if I have a chance.

I love blushes but hate to buy duplicate....perhaps I can try the ones you recommend and see if something works for me that I don't have yet!!! ^^
love the baby!!! those glasses just cracked me up!! hehehehehe...

love ur top too

Black Swan Part ? - My Gray Swan and the Party!!

Natalie Portman in Movie: Black Swan. (pic. source: Officer trailer from YouTube .com) I have been inspired by Natalie Portman's character in this movie-- Black Swan . She is an awesome actress and I can't wait to see this movie in Nov. I didn't intend to copy everything from her character but the make-ups does seem incredible "Halloween-suitable" to me.  My Halloween theme: 3 kiddos go to trick-or-treat at " Dr. pumpkin Susses ' haunted house". ^O^ More highlight of my creation.... Twilight poster - "eclipse"...haha..  My Gray Swan make-up! I use black eyeliner for the outline of the feather.  Bobbie Brown newest eyeshadow : Black velvet and dab w/ The Body Shop silver-gray eyeshadow for more definition.  I could do better next time for more details on feather!! I also add a fake eye-lashes w/ white dots for more fun and dramatic!! Voila~ my Gray Swan .... w/ Alaia gold lace-up heels! ^^ A full house of ...

Last Steal Before s/s 2010!!

It has been a while since the last time DH and I went out for a DATE!! Well, I guess a real DATE is just too luxury for us having 3 young children and it always needs a special arrangement for it to happen. Ilona won't go to preschool until this fall so hopefully by then, DH and I will have more romantic date-out alone!!! DH's Porsche is manual and I have no problem of driving it too. Thanks to my driving coach back in Taiwan so I can drive both manual and auto-shift cars!! :) I am not so into cars personally!...... IT to me is one kind of transportation means from destination A to destination B. :) Ilona sits pretty cozily at the back seat! Finally there is my Chanel 08' pink crystals brooch. My ODJ. 1. Top:  Dimension Victorian style white shirt dress RUGBY military inspired coat et vous fur coat 2. Bottom: Dolce Vita denim cut-out leggings 3. Shoes:  09' fall Proenza Schouler platform cap toe pump w/ wooden heels 4. Accessory: Chan...

Can't Have Enough of Alexander Wang -- The Skirt n' Coco Duffel Bag!!

My parents came yesterday evening...and yes, my mom did bring over the Chanel classic jumbo I bought for her!!! My heart palpitated so fast after seeing her carrying that THEN-Mine-NOW-HERs bag!! lol  I really love the classic look of Chanel!!! Well, I know you must think that I could either trade or borrow that classic jumbo from her, but I just don't know how to ASK!! So I think I will wait till next spring and see if boutique, NM or SAKs would order Chanel matte black reissue 226 w/ gold hardware!!!!!! Wish me luck then!! Anyway, here is the look of me today!!! I must say it is hard to resist loving Alexander Wang Coco Duffel bag and obviously HE is getting so popular this season. A girl ran to me when we were crossing an intersection in SF city today just because she wants to know where did I get the Coco Duffel bag!!!! lol I am glad I had a fur vest on... it gets so chilly in SF city! I am only holding a pair of Alexander Wang's combat black heels... sat...
