April 2013 Haul

Ciao!

Come stai? :D

As of today, imma happy girl! xD For the moment at least. I've just submitted one of my submissions this morning and I'm free for now. After my submission, I enjoyed my free time cleaning the toilet and kitchen lol. Perfect isn't it? xD

I tried to write Italian above but all I could come up with was Hello and How are you? LOL. Did I mention before that I took up Italian as one of my electives last year? IT WAS SO HARD. But it was really interesting. I almost failed though ><

Anyway, I gonna post some images of the items I bought during April :D

Valley Girl, Jewel Hair Pins - $2.95 (Sale)

Valley Girl, Cross Diamond Hoops - $2.95 (Sale)

Colette, Silver Jewel Studs - $6.50 (Sale)

Colette, Jewel Necklace - $9.95

I fell in love with this necklace at first sight! xD Maybe because it was so shinny lol. This necklace wasn't on sale though. And I've just realised that I bought much more accessories then I did before. Usually its clothes.

Parade, White Dress - $20

This is another item that I fell in love with :P It was the last piece in the shop and thank goodness I could fit into it. It is a size 6 ><

Can you see how far down the cleavage goes? xD (I did not buy it for that reason!)

Nicki Minaj EDP - $49 (Sale)

And of course, not forgetting this perfume lol. I posted about it in my previous post but I'm gonna show it here again because it is part of my haul.

April is ending soon! And winter is coming. Its getting pretty chilly lately. Not sure if I can wear me skirts during winter ><

For now, I will still wear them xD 

OOTD!

I am so so glad that my face has cleared up from the acne! It has been painful for the past few days and my face has been pretty bad as well ><

But now that the monthly visitor has arrived, they're slowly disappearing ^-^

This is where it stops now. Thank you for reading! :)

Till then, TTFN!

That's so me xD

Eau De Parfum

こんにちわ！

今日のポストはｐｅｒｆｕｍｅのことです。さいきんわたしはたくさんｐｅｒｆｕｍｅを買った。ちょっと高かったですが本当に好きですから。毎日私はちがうのｐｅｒｆｕｍｅをつかいしなければなりません。

I think I've spent a lot of time writing that short sentence lol. I haven't been practicing my Japanese ever since last year so now it really is rusty. Sorry if I made grammar or structure mistakes! ><

I'm not sure if I wrote in one of my previous posts that I will show the perfumes that I have. Even if I didn't write that, I'm bound to post about it one day. And today it is xD

Anyway, I think I can never get enough perfume. There's just so many different scents that I want em' all! xD Well, the ones that I like I mean lol. I currently have 6 perfumes. Not all of them are EDP. Some of them are EDT and cologne mist if I'm not mistaken. 

I also realised that I tend to like the scents of celebrity perfumes. Not that I side them or anything. I'm a really neutral person when it comes to scents. Meaning that, I don't look at brands, colour, design, packaging or who's perfume it is. As long as I'm attracted to the scent and I know that I want it, then I want it xD But of course, cute, creative and nice packaging of the bottles can really attract me to it xD They won't necessarily smell nice but I feel drawn to them lol.

Since I have quite a few bottles of perfume with me, I'm trying to use them up everyday. So everyday I tend to use a different scent depending on my mood and outfit? Lol.

I'm gonna show images of the perfume that I have at the moment.

#1 Justin Bieber - Someday

For those who despise Justin Bieber, I have no comment lol. I didn't buy this because I'm a huge fan. The scent appealed to me. And his songs are alright to me xD I bought this perfume last year for $29. It was on promotion and I received a mini bottle of his perfume as well as part of the promotion. My sister was with me at that time. So, I gave it to her hehe. And it is sitting in my room back in Malaysia while she is in UK lol.

The scent is really sweet. I wouldn't say its refreshing because it's not lol. Its just plain sweet and it has a rather thick or musky feeling to it. Its not literally a musky perfume but it feels like a 'heavy' perfume to me. I would't spray too much at a time because sometimes, perfumes can suffocate you :)

I took a tester scent of Justin Bieber's latest perfume which is Girlfriend and I thought it was not bad as well. 

Image from Google

One thing that I'm concerned about is the bottle. I mean, what's up with it? It is heavy and troublesome. The fact that the bottle can come out of its 'shell' is quite annoying for me. The scent is sweet as well but its not as 'heavy' and 'thick' as Someday. It is on sale at the moment for $29 as well. Or was it $19? If its $19, that's really cheap xD 

#2 Britney Spears - Circus

Okay, so I know that Britney Spears has a wide range of perfumes and I seriously cannot keep track. I never really fancied her perfumes though the scent was alright. It just never occurred to me before. As in, I never paid any attention. Just like Avril Lavigne's Perfume which is Black Star and Forbidden Rose (scent wasn't really nice for me), Rihanna's Perfume Range and a few other celebrities perfume. 

Even though I said all that, there was one day when I was browsing at the perfume section in Priceline, and there was a big promotion going on. I thought, how cheap is cheap? And then I saw this perfume (one box left) on the shelf. AND IT WAS $5! I was so so surprised. Is this real? Lol. That was really, really cheap. For a celebrity perfume. So I went over to the counter and double check it with the assistant. And she confirmed with me that it is $5. No hesitation xD

I bought it last year as well and as you can see, I've only used that much lol. Same goes to all of my perfume though. The scent is something similar to Gwen Stefani's, Harajuku Lovers, G (image below) which I would say, is a very general scent. It can match anything. I think? Lol. I'm sorry because I don't know how to describe the scent >< But what I can confirm is that it is not a sweet or musky scent.

#3 Gwen Stefani - Harajuku Lovers, G

I bought this perfume really recently. Like this month or last month. I bought is for $24 at Priceline. The original price is $59 so I thought it was a good deal. Actually to be honest, I was more attracted to the bottle more than the scent lol. The scent is alright but you know, cute packaging and all xD

I talked about this perfume in one of my previous posts as well. I can't remember much of what I said, so I will link it here and you can check out my review there :)

#4 Enchanteur  - Paris, Belle Amour

This scent is super sweet and floral-ish! I used to be really addicted to it when I first bought it. But as time goes by, the scent got a lil' sickening since I wore it everyday hehe. I bought it around 2 years ago. I can't remember if this is a EDP or EDT. It won't last for the whole day that's all I know.

Enchanteur is not a famous or big brand. I bought it in Malaysia but it has a French influence on it so I myself am confused as to where its from lol. There are a few other scents of this range but I particularly like this one which is in transparent pink liquid. It looks like water here in the picture. Maybe its my hand lol. This scent was at reasonable price at RM22.90 at Watsons. I believe that this product is still ongoing in stores.

#5 Kose - Happy Bath Day, Precious Rose

This was one of my really happy purchases when I was a teenager. I was really, really into Japanese stuff and products (but didn't have the money) back then. And the only reason I bought this was because it is Happy Bath Day lol. But of course, the scent is lovely xD Its like thousands of roses elixir in that bottle. Hehe. I bought it at John Little, Singapore around 3-5 years ago. And I still have quite a bit left. 

When I saw the Happy Bath Day range, I went nuts. I wanted everything. But I was a poor teenager so yeah, I only got one bottle of this as a lovely souveneir xD It costs $15. I'm really glad that I have it because, I don't think the Precious Rose Range is available anymore. Actually I'm not sure because it was quite some time ago ><

AND! Lastly, MY LATEST PURCHASE TO MY PERFUME COLLECTION! xD

#6 Nicki Minaj - Pink Friday

I am so happy! xD I mentioned before that this perfume is part of my wish list. And now its granted! xD

I bought this a few days ago actually. It was on sale at Priceline. The original price was $89.90. And now it became, $49. I mean, that's a really good discount no?! Lol. $40 cheaper is almost half price. When I saw it, I was like, am I seeing what I think I'm seeing? xD

I really know that I wanna get it but I also didn't feel comfortable spending money like that. Then I thought to myself, you'll never know when it gets this good again. So fine! I bought it lol.

 A rather creepy image of Nicki Minaj lol.

And yup, so is the packaging lol. Especially the face. Gold plated. Reflection. Looks like a skull xD

The packaging is cool but its really heavy. A lot of detail and effort has been made for the packaging. Like, her face. It kinda looks like her face (the nose and lips) even if its gold. And the realistic, 3D boobs lol. Not forgetting the necklace on the bottle as well. Maybe that's why it is so expensive.

Anyway, I'm loving the scent. I've used it once today and I'm like wow. I smell like candy hehe. Nothing too heavy or too much. And I've sort of done a 'survey' with this scent lol.

Before I bought this perfume, I took a scent tester of Pink Friday and another scent tester of Katy Perry's Meow!. I asked 5 guys what they thought of the two different scents. Koibito's friends lol. And out of 5, 1 said he preferred Katy Perry's Meow! whereas, the remaining 4 preferred Pink Friday LOL. I asked him why Katy Perry's? He said Pink Friday was too sweet for him. Well I guess you need a mood and liking for such a 'sweet' scent hehe. Koibito doesn't seem very fond of it. But maybe he will be once I start using it often xD

These are all the perfumes and scents that I have with me in Melbourne. Its quite a lot actually lol. I think I have a few more back in Malaysia but yeah that's it. Did you like any of them? xD

By the way, I took a sniff on Rihanna's Nude Perfume and oh! I kinda like it! >< NOOOOO!! I shouldn't buy too many >< I'll just keep it in mind ><

So lately, the weather has been getting quite chilly and its been raining quite a bit recently. I love it when it rains. Then I can take a nice cat nap and cuddle in bed xD The sound of rain is so nice and relaxing. But when it rains, its really windy and chilly. Carrying an umbrella is troublesome as well because it is likely to get overturned. Melbourne and her wind lol.

I'm starting to chicken out with the cold so I have started wearing jeans instead of skirts >< I don't know how my friend can wear skirts during winter. With stockings of course, but still! The wind is sooo cold. Goosebumps all over. 

Sorry if I didn't post much. I've just been so busy with assignments that I don't have time for myself. I'm surprised that I can stand not going shopping for the past 2 weeks. Grocery shopping is not considered. And since I haven't been posting much, I guess I'm just rambling here now lol.

I'll just post one OOTD and I shall wrap it up.

From all the clothes I bought, I think you might have realised that, I have A LOT OF CLOTHES lol. And I can never get enough xD Yes that's bad >< Since I have a lot of clothes, I try to make them worth by wearing them of course. So sometimes I may have weird combinations or style and colour. I guess I'm just bored and wanna mix and match with my clothes. I look so unflattering and unshapely here LOL. Really love the neon peach though xD

Oh I look extra round at the moment. Had a lot of cravings and hunger pangs lately. I'm expecting the visitor soon lol.

I really like my hair colour! Under the sun of course lol. Its so light and chocolatey. I like brown shades that have an ash, beige or chocolate tint. I somehow dislike brown tints with a lil' red inside. If you want brown, just go brown! :D

And look! My roots are growing so quickly :( That was one of the reasons I was hesitant to dye my hair. Because I am lazy and poor to maintain. Not only that, my hair crown looks really thin here T.T

Alright! I should get to bed now. It is almost 1am lol. And I have 8.30am tutorial tomorrow T.T

Thank you for reading! :)

A random picture of me that I digged up lol.

TTFN!

Easter Break

Hey all!

I know that I have been MIA for quite a while. Sorry bout that! >< 

Its just that I've been really busy with assignments and chores? Lol. 

Or maybe I was just plain lazy xD

Last Friday, my dad and brother came to Melbourne to visit me. It was a short trip. It was good while it lasted. I was the tour guide lol. And the three of us were so cramp in my tiny apartment. It was so messy as well! @.@

I can't stand things being messy, unorganised and unclean lol. I must tidy up and keep things nice and neat. Hehe. Well, my room is 90% neat and tidy now. I just have to vacuum it and do the laundry lol.

Just this morning my dad and brother returned to Malaysia. How funny. Because I just started my Easter break lol. For one week. Ahh.. holiday feels so good xD Even though I just started uni one month ago, I feel so stressed and lazy already. And that is very very bad. Don't be like me xD

Since I was free today, I went shopping after class. Cat's out of the bag lol. I shop too much >< And it feels so good to just relax and watch my drama series while painting my nails. Hehe.

Currently, I'm watching Vampire Diaries Season 4 and Suburgatory. I told a lot of people to watch Vampire Diaries but most of them are skeptical saying its childish and rubbish lol. I managed to convince a friend to watch it and she loved it xD Oh well, preference.

Previously(over the years) I watched Heroes, Gossip Girl, Secret Circle, Pretty Little Liars and erm...I can't remember after that lol. I do not watch Glee. Somehow I can't really stand musical-like shows, like High School Musical, Muppets, Glee and other shows with singing. I mean, they are entertaining to watch but if I had a choice, I'd rather not. Disney movies and Phantom of the Opera are exceptional though xD 

And.....

True story bro xD

I absolutely did not do any work or assignments today. And YES IT FEELS SO GOOD. Holiday y'all xD

Two days ago (Monday), I was rushing an assignment which was due to submit on the next day. I had to finish my design report plus a model. It would have taken me more than a day but I tried to rush everything I could @.@ I was accompanying my dad and bro for the past few days therefore I did not have time at all >< 

So, I did my work the whole day on Monday. From 10.30 am to 2.30 am. Breaks, shower and meals in between of course lol. And I had to wake up at 7 am for lecture. I was sooo sleepy and tired. I thought I was the only dead zombie. But actually, mine wasn't so bad after all. One of my friend pulled an all nighter and slept at 8am. Class was at 11.30am lol.

Anyway, a late warning, this is gonna be a long and maybe a slightly draggy post lol. A rather vain post as well xD

During the time when I did not blog, I bought stuff. As usual lol. This is soooo bad. I need to control myself ><

Here are the pictures;

Dotti Military Jacket at $40

Very expensive jacket >< 

In my previous post, I wrote about the Autumn fashion in Melbourne. And I think I'm beginning to become very influenced with the fashion! Its not really my style but I thought its quite fun to have a play with different styles and fashion. Therefore, I'm beginning to explore more xD

Dotti Black Peplum Top at $5

This top is extra cheap (you can never get this price in normal retail) because I got it at DFO xD

Valleygirl  Long sleeved Top at $10

This top was on sale. I usually wouldn't wear designs such as this but yeah like I said, I'm influenced xD And I like the graphics too! :D

Cotton On Lace Top in Coral at $15

I got this at DFO too and it was on sale. I've been searching for a top like this for ages! I thought it was cute and bright.

Harajuku Lovers Fragance, G at $24

Ahah! I've been looking at this for a while now and was hesitating on whether I should buy it or not. The normal price was $59 if I'm not mistaken. Then there was a sale and the perfume reduced to $24! I bought it then and there xD Got it at Priceline :)

This is the super adorable bottle :D

I don't know how to describe the scent. I feel that it is a very general scent and that it would suit anybody? @.@ I've asked my brother on what he thinks about the scent and he said it smells floral-ish. I'll stick with that description then xD

While shopping today, I went window shopping at Forever New. I really love the designs and colour schemes of Forever New. It is so me somehow xD But sadly it is really really pricy. Malaysia does not have Forever New ATM but Singapore does. Malaysia has Forever 21 though lol.

Anyway, at Forever New, I took a bunch of clothes and tried them on in the fitting room. Among all, I really like this one!

Oh I really like it! I like the pastel colour, the lace, and the pearls! Oh the pearls are so right xD I tried it on and I think it looks okay? Lol. The material is really good quality as well. 

Overall, the clothes at Forever New are good quality but yeah, they're just so expensive. Like this top, it costs $89.90 @.@ I did not buy it lol.

Here's a picture of me wearing the top. I tried to capture a clear and close up view of the pearl details and they're so pretty xD

If you're interested or curious about Forever New, you can check it out here.

And now I have some pictures of different OFTD :D

OFTD #1

OFTD #2

When I wore this outfit, I was really, like literally the brightest walking person lol. I'm not sure if the picture shows it well but my skirt is actually a fluorescent yellow. And fluorescent coral. You get the idea. Like a human sorbet lol. Everyone was wearing dark colours on that day. I felt rather insecure. But I thought to myself, Life is too short to wear dark colours. I have to wear all the bright and shocking colours while I'm still young and studying xD Personal preference.

OFTD #3

It was slightly cold on the day I wore this. That's why you see me in jeans lol. Usually its a skirt xD

That's all for the OOTD pictures. 

Oh! I said I would show images of my star stockings. And here they are;

Cute aren't they? xD And if you're wondering what's with the pink cartoon thing behind my legs, well, that's my bed sheet xD

Little Twin Stars! I feel so happy when I go to bed. All pink and cute xD

And recently, I started playing Line Play. It is so cute xD I was addicted to it for about 3 days and I got bored after that. Because I'm poor and lazy lol.

All pink and cute again hehe.

Now, let's get on to Yummy business.

The food looks good ain't it? xD

Well, that sums up my post. For this Easter break, I guess I'll take the time to relax and complete my assignments. Will attend church for Good Friday and Easter :) I'm glad I managed to even blog this lol. 

Another thing is that lately its been quite hot and sunny. The weather keeps on changing -.- Hot and cold. Cold and hot. And right now its raining! I love it when it rains. Especially at night xD

A night view of the Yarra River.

Me and brother :P

Oh! One funny thing happened today. Well its not literally funny but its rather surprising for me.

I have a design studio class every Wednesday and well, I don't know every single student in the class. So when I sit by myself, I'm rather quiet. But when I'm with friends, I can be quite noisy hehe. So today most of us had to present our work on the projector therefore we have to speak out loud. I think because of that, people can hear my slang and accent.

We had a 10 minute break in between and I accompanied my friend for a smoke (I don't smoke). While chilling outside, some classmates who are Malaysian and Singaporean, approached me and my friend and asked us, "Are you guys Malaysians?" I said yes and they were like, "Really? I thought you were Korean.". I find it surprising because Malaysian people think that I'm Korean. Lol. Usually locals can recognise locals but in this case not. Maybe because I didn't speak lol.

This is not the first time I was mistaken as a Korean. In the same class, another Malaysian girl mistook me as a Korean and I'm like, "Ha??" Lol. In Malaysia as well, some people tend to mistake me as a foreigner. Not until they hear me speak xD Our Malaysian accent/slang tends to give us away hehe.

That's all for now! Will keep you updated xD

Thank you for reading!

Till then, TTFN!
