Wooo hoo ~ Its the second week of January and with my hair growing at breakneck speed : I had to get my first haircut of the year before CNY madness sets in!

Tied my hair in a loose ponytail before setting off.



The weather was alittle crazy today, with dark clouds looming above my head - then the expected downpour but out of the blue, the skies cleared up and it was sunny once more!

I chose to wear a cheery top!
It was a surprise 'present' from the lovely owners of Le'Jetaime!(Click here!)

U can see my previous post on Le'Jetaime here.
:)



I am a lazy person, I prefer easy-to-wear clothes.

Like this.. I can throw on some old shorts and walk out in flip flops but still looking presentable!
Im not really a t-shirt kinda girl, although I do love my vintage junk food tees! But I reckon they only look really nice on super skinny girls.
:p

Another picture (sorry to scare u guys....again!) before I leave for the salon.



A necklace that I bought in the night bazaar in Taipei.
Its actually a bird in a cage..! Cuteeee max.



Alien alert!



I cut it shorter, dyed it alittle and my stylist will always tong the ends for me before I go off.
Back home.



Its so much shorter! (Okieee.. Im exaggerating..)
But I likeeeee... :p



The side-view.
My hair colour is brownish with a tinge of red under the sunlight.



With flash.
My blusher is orangey coz I became so tanned during my maldives trip - pink doesnt show on my skin well!
But I still LOVEEEE using a pink lip with dark falsies & colour contacts.

Foundation: Revlon ColourStay
Powder: ZA in #32
Blusher: Candy Doll in Orange
Lipstick: Candy Doll in Pink
Lip Gloss: NARS in MoonFleet

Colour Contacts: FreshLook in Green



Had some time to spare, so I took a kiamp kiamp (aka hair clip) and kiamp-ed 1/3 of my hair up.
This is a different look with curls.



Its easy and great when the weather is burning!



U must make sure there is a little 'volume' at the top so it looks cuter (I think! Hee!) and not so flat.
I chose a small bow kiamp, coz its pretty popular now to put little bows in hair.
(Despite being nearly 30 soon, I still act cute everyday! *puke max*)



I hope u enjoyed my little hair & makeup post, but maybe one day I shall do a more detailed one with proper curling techniques with a tong.
:D

Bye dearest all!
Take care, have a greeeeat weekend~

xoxo

P.S
I hope u all dun get nightmares from my hugeee pictures!
Had recently decided to enlarge it alittle but I didnt expect it to be so big!
Sorry! Will make it smaller in future.. hehehe!

Reader since 2000: Hello! Aiyo im not offended! I really dun mind heheh! :)
I did get my eyelids done in 2005, by Dr Wong in Gleneagles. He is good!
He also decided to do a higher cease, becoz I already have double eyelids to begin with.
So individual case by case basis during consultation.

My eyes are done by the sitching method, the most traditional method where the effects are most permanent - by also u need more downtime.
Sitches have to be removed after abt a week, and u cant wear makeup for at least a month.
U will look like u have been crying for along time, but other than that, relatively minimal pain.

They have more advanced methods now, like laser etc and the outcome is more natural.
My eyelid cease look very deep n there is slight scarring.
But I wun say I regret the procedure, coz its been quite long and at that time it was a very impulsive decision.
(I did it within a week of making the decision.)

If I could turn back time, maybe I would have gone for the newer methods like laser, where there is lesser downtime and a more natural effect.
But I cant turn back time, so I have learnt to live with my decision. Hehe.
Hope this helps!!!

yasmi: Hmmm Im quite a bad packer coz Im a lazy packer! LOL! Maybe I should try to do one coz I have a long trip coming up! :p

QQ: I use Photoscape! :D

rosaline: Thank u for ur support!! U can link me, no probs.

joey: OMG I think u drunk lor! Kekekek Im not slim.. its the heels n the alcohol u drank..!! :D

jace: Ure welcome dear!!!

fatso: Im not slim my dear! its the camera angle. But my job requires hard labour work, so maybe thats why I manage to not put on so much weight. But I really dun bother about extreme dieting, I just try to eat lesser carbo and not so much suppers when I feel that my jeans are getting tighter. (Maybe thats also why I hate to wear jeans!!! )
please dun go to the slimming centres, they dun work in the long run. U are really better off seeing a GP for healthy weight loss management. Raffles hospital has one esp for weight loss. :)
