Random Pink Things

As if the title isn't warning enough, this is a super random post.

I realise that while I'm not an outwardly pink person, I do own a lot of pink paraphernalia and accessories.

Of course my pink T-10 camera.

Pink mouse.

My pink coin purse and card pouch.

Hell, even my shaver is embarassingly pink.

What incited this post? This device:


It's an eye massager that is USB-powered. And it is very pink.

I was just showing it to my mom at Action City and the next thing I knew I got it. Nonsense right, I know.

Told you this was a random post. And these are what I bothered to take photos of, I actually have more -_-.

I'm supposed to be doing a html frames webpage design at the moment and it's frustrating that 13 year olds can do a whole webpage waaaay better than I can.

The Dress that hugged too much

Apologies for the lack of updates!

Been extremely busy! If I'm not doing the never-ending projects that had me up whole nights the past week, I'm busy catching up with friends that make me sane! Seriously.

I just came back from an overnighter with friends that left me 70cents poorer and in a few minutes I'm leaving the house again for a project meeting. Blleeehhh.

Anyway. here's some photos I totally forgot about.

I had a performance at Zouk a couple of weeks ago and I wore one of my many unworn dresses.

I was concerned that the dress was hugging my butt too much, so I actually wore pants under it before the performance. Little did I know my worry should have been focused more on my, uh, front since it was kinda exposed because the cloth kept creasing.. THERE.

I wore the second dress in this post, if you want to see its full version.

This is most unobvious photo I could find. Actually there are others but I like this one best because I don't look at my cunt first :)
Crazy photography, I honestly don't know how my friend could have taken this.

I did like my hair that was done in 10 seconds though.

I'll go find more interesting to blog about!
Like Japanese magazines and narcissistic artistic collages!

First and Last day of work

The title sounds a tad negative I know. But really I was only temp-ing so it was my last day at work.

Oh, oh, and of course, my first day as well. I can finally tell people I've worked a proper job. Although I don't see why people don't seem to want to consider my tutoring as a 'proper' job. Hmph.

Anyway, work was FUN! Tiring, but FUN.

Right so I was temp-ing at the Naf Naf boutique at Vivocity.
They needed people because they were doing a fashion show the very next day to launch the new line.

I would have gone for the show if I did not have school that I've already skipped countless times. Basically our jobs were to do stock clearance and, uh, replacing.

The boutique, almost empty with barely any clothes and zero customers, was closed earlier that usual.

As we await for the new stock to arrive, we decided to do a little of, uh, consumer behaviourism ourselves.

The dress was verrrrry low cut so my bra was showing hence the dorky pose -_-".

Basically Naf Naf is the french, more expensive version of Topshop with much less variety.

It was tough finding things I liked, except for this ultra luxurious white blazer jacker.

The purple tiered dress made for an interesting combo that I liked.
Very lux resort, yes?

My bestie's pumps were made out of this gorgeous black velvet that you just want to caress.
I loveeeee.

Back to work.

Gwen Stefani - The Sweet Escape Tour

All-time rock idol Gwen Stefani is coming to Singapore!!! !@#$$%^&*()_+!

And I'm pretty certain I won't be able to make it. I seriously doubt I could pool enough money before 14 August, which is the date of the concert, of course.

Boo.

I miss her Harajuku posse, no matter how gimmicky they are.
Maybe she'll be looking for a new posse.
The Jurong West Posse! No?

Mama Gwen and Baby Kingston!
He probably hates getting dolled up like that but he'll grow to love it.

Aww maaaannn. Get your tickets at Sistic, hmmph hmmph whatever.

I worked for the first time in my whole entire life. More about that in the next post.
TIRED.

Hilary Duff is Dignified

Admittedly I was a little sceptical about this album, because, number 1: she is Hilary Duff, number 2: and come on, "Dignity"? Right. and number 3: she is Hilary Duff.

I could possibly lose my street cred after this review, BUT I really like her album, so I'm willing to risk it, ya' dig me shizzle ma' fizzle hommies? *coughs*

Anyway, the album has a more electronic dance sound, and no more of that annoying crappy pop she was doing before.

Hilary Duff also co-wrotes most of the songs so I'm glad it's not as cheesy as I expected; in fact I thought the lyrics are quite mature.

Her vocal range, however, was mediocre, though that probably shouldn't matter seeing as how the electro-pop sound is the crux of what rocks this album.

My favourite songs are Stranger, Gypsy woman and Dreamer.

For the purpose of this blog, I hunted for photos in hopes of capturing her style. Or her stylists' style. Whatever.

She looks best in one-pieces that she pulls off in a no-frills way.

My favourite, thank you. The red dress is adorable and her shoes rock.
Next on the shopping list: nude killer heels.

I wouldn't look up to her as a style inspiration, but hey, I do love her shoes.

Creative Zen Stone, well, rocks!

I officially need an mp3 player.

And I'm really really liking Creative's Zen Stone. As a self-proclaimed local brand advocator I am ashamed to say that I was once an Apple snob, preferring its clean and minimalistic design over Creative's features.

But this time round, the Creative Zen Stone, probably made to combat the iPod shuffle, wins. It's so cute!

I'm planning to get the Creative Zen Stone Plus. Apart from me preferring it's design over the iPod shuffle, I also like that it has a screen and FM radio.

Oh and have I mentioned that it's unbelievably affordable? It retails for SGD$99 for a 2GB size. The Creative Zen Stone one, which differs because it has no screen and FM radio I think, costs about SGD$60 for 1 GB.

I'm currently awaiting a review from favourite geek website, CNET Asia. Whee.

Cloth-shopping and amateur-ish photography in Chinatown

I went cloth-shopping today and I came home satisfied. Chinatown is officially my favourite place to go cloth-shopping.

Perhaps more like it houses my favourite shop to buy cloth. It's a tiny shop with an amiable granny who tends the shop alone. She could have made me buy the whole shop if she wants me to because she was sweet and not-crabby and old. I can't refuse an old lady, come on.

Digress!

I bought 3 pieces of cloth: off white cotton, hot pink cotton and linen, stripy cotton. I loovvvee.

My mom nagged because she's certain I won't make something out of them.
My friends rolled their eyes because they too are certain the cloth will end up under my bed untouched.

I shall prove them wrong!
.....
...
.
Uh, make that I shall attempt to prove them wrong.

I almost cried as well because I accidentally deleted all the pictures in my digicam while trying to make space. So to stop my whining we made up for the lost pictures by taking some more.

Outfit for the day: White oversized shirt, light blue eyelet skirt.

I could've worn a belt for a neater finish but I simply didn't feel like it :)

FUN.
