Pre-Japan Preparation and Journey to Japan
It is much to my excitement to start writing about my 8 days 7 nights Japan vacation! Finally, I had always imagined visiting Japan and hoped for that one day to blog about my dream vacation here. But now that it is happening, I am feeling that tinge of bittersweet as it reminds me, once again, that my dream vacation is a thing of the past. Looking back, I remember the frustrating wait spent...

Dolly Wink 2011 A/W Sneak Preview #2

You can see what runs consistent and what doesn’t. The black and pink colour scheme remains the same but something about its packaging isn’t as bold and striking as the previous. Now it is packaged like a little perfume-looking design and I am missing the cute big bow which sticks at the top of...

ankimohime asked: Hi there. First of all, I love reading your makeup and wig reviews! I've only ever bought Korean wigs before but thanks to your Aquadoll posts, I might consider getting one of their wigs in the future. Anyway, on to my question: I read that even good quality wigs have a lifespan of 6-12 months? In your opinion, should we toss out our wigs once they get to that age or is it possible to keep...

Half wig is
Interesting. Unlike the full wig, it adds on to the natural shape of your head and does not have the artificial scalp that “pops out naturally” which gives yourself away too easily. Like this~
I am not someone who like princessy look like this but this model makes such look worth trying.
I like this model a lot and if you know who she is, do let me know :) She has this...

I heard that on its first day of its opening, the queue was insanely long to have spilled over to the building next to H&M!

Picking on the wig colour took me quite some time before I decided to go for CM. I was torn between CM and LB, hee.

I will never forget the day when I felt like I was the luckiest girl alive on the 24 August 2011 to be able to stand so close to someone who has been a strong fashion inspiration to me.

I cannot recall when was the time I started to develop a liking towards her but one thing I am certain of is that, my liking...

Pretty isn’t it? The combination of a gorgeous scarf doubling up as a watch belt seems to quite a chic fashion statement. I had been wanting this the first time I set my eyes on this lovely watch.
Thanks to my boyfriend. He has gotten this(the exact first picture in black) for me as our 8 anniversary gift! Thanks love!...
