Pink and Undecided: thematic dressing

Rock N' Rollin! (SPONSORED)

Hey guys...

In my previous outfit pic not so long ago, i already mentioned that i was going for a fun photo shoot on Sunday, that photo shoot was for the items sponsored by Dresslink!

Borrowing Onkas as per #Undecided's suggestion, he completes the look! LOL

Well, in case you can't tell, this is somewhat of a costume haha. I don't normally dress like that prancing around town or whatever (not like there's anything wrong with that, but i did get snarky comments when i post a pic on IG). Each of the items in this blog post can be worn on everyday life (eh... If you think it's okay wearing a dress with skeleton hands holding your boobs and butt, that is! Totally fine by me!) but throw them all together, you get this : a costume.

Which is precisely my point. I mean, that's the beauty of playing dress up, yes? Thing that most girls can relate, no matter if they're 3 or 33 (or 66, for that matter), playing dress up is fun and it should be over the top and crazy. If not, they'd be call "dressing normally" instead of "playing dress up".

Please keep that in mind if you plan to comment, because i don't take annoying comments easily *LOL*. Consider yourselves warned :p.

Anyway. You can see the items in more details (and learn about the quality) in my Dresslink unboxing and review post.

So, i wanted to take the pics outdoor (better lighting and all) and since we had plan to throw our BFF A a birthday dinner that day, i asked #Undecided if she thinks i can snap pics somewhere in her neighborhood (you know, lots of trees, quiet so i can actually take pictures without people staring). Hunny can't take pics properly when it's hot so i was glad that my other BFF G (who now take nice pics) actually wanted to tag along and take pictures with me. Most of the pictures in this blog post were taken by her (and a few by hunny).

It really was so much fun because of G! She was encouraging and since i've known her more than half of my life, i totally felt at ease when she took my pics. No shyness attack or whatever hahaha.

Dangling gold necklace USD 1.36 only!

Black shift dress with skeleton hands USD 5.81

Showing you the other pair of hands on the butt hahaha

:p. Btw, i was wearing hair extension clips from Irresistable Me for more volume!

Oh yeah, now i understand why it takes an army to take actual, professional fashion photos. I didn't realize that my fringe was in a total disarray and nobody pointed it out to me, so please try to ignore the weird long spikes in the middle of my forehead, it's supposed to be swept to the side >.<

Btw, i was also trying out my new makeup (sponsored by Zoya Cosmetics) that day!

MOTD. I didn't look so bitchy without the sunnies, no? LOL

List of products used :
1. Zoya Cosmetics CC Cream
2. Zoya Cosmetics Blotting Powder
3. Face on Face Face Powder
4. Clinique All About Eyes Concealer
5. DHC Medicated Concealer
6. Maybelline Fashion Brow 24HR Coloring Mascara in Rusty Brown
7. Color Concept shimmery nude eyeshadow
8. Mai Doll Liquid Eyeliner (Black)
9. Mustika Ratu Blush on (Amethyst)
10. Zoya Cosmetics Ultimate Eyeliner in Black
11. Simply Stay by Mustika Ratu powder for nose shading
12. Oriflame Tender Care
13. Zoya Cosmetics Lip Paint in Pink Powder
14. Unbranded Hiliter

Okay let's go back to the outfit. We took a LOT of pictures so i have more photos than my usual outfit pics (this is already just 20% of all the pictures taken hahaha)

In case you're wondering, i am not afraid of Onkas. I'm not very brave or whatever, big dogs used to scare the shit out of me (most of them still do!), but Onkas is a sweetheart. No need to be afraid of him whatsoever. He did pee on the exact spot which we picked as out photo taking spot tho zzzz so yes, those wet (BIG) patch you see on the pavement. His pee.

Since we're going all out, i decided to borrow #Undecided's hubby's air soft gun *LOL*

FYI, it was really really heavy and i kept on shouting at hunny to snap faster

This pose is especially torturous. I need to work on my upper body strength

Like i mentioned earlier, G was my photographer and later she joined me in the photos hahaha.

Of course i beautify this pic, it turns out nice, no?

The actual tone of the pic *LOL*

LOL at my chicken butt lips >.<

Lastly we also took some more pics at Mazel Tov where we had dinner. Yes, we did get carried away.

Round clock shaped bag USD 2.89

The only items that were not sponsored are those knee length socks (which i don't even remember where i get from anymore) and boots (bought online, unbranded China imported ones) *LOL*

All of those items (and thousands other options, don't worry-they also have subtler, more normal looking items than the ones i picked hahaha) can be purchased at Dresslink!

G and i had so much fun taking these pics, we decided we should make this a regular thing! Hope you enjoy this post as much as i did in the process!

Halloween Fashion Part 2 : Gypsy Fortune Teller

black

Hey guys.

I'm actually drown to the neck with event reports, and i haven't even start working on a single one FML. The photos require more time to sort, resize, etc and i'm still busy running around (loads of relatives from out of town and even out of the country are visiting) and ATTENDING the said events so.... I'll need some down time which i will definitely be getting this week (not today, though) to work on them.

Meanwhile before Halloween's way too far behind us, i need to blog about my second Halloween look.

My fave photo of the look. With the right filter, i look so pale and ghastly.... Downright ghostly!

Yeah, like the title stated, i was going for a (creepy) Gypsy fortune teller, but that first picture looks more like black widow hahaha (not the marvel kind, the ghostly kind... You know, the one that mourns the death of her beloved til she too dies of misery and haunts the resting place ever since :p) thanks to the netted, spidery veil.

This is the actual ensemble i wore that day :

Minus the shoes, i wore the heels only for photo purposes and changed into flats later because i did not want to kill my feet the second time. The spiky headband's from Forever 21 (wayy too tight, it presses my skull and gave me horrible headache!) and choker from Lovisa

That's the final look, but when we snapped majority of photos, i totally forgot about the choker and spiky headband i already prepared!

Just like the first look, the star of the look was the lipstick :

FOTD. Black lipstick makes your complexion super pale i guess, even when you actually use blush on!

Just a basic gothic makeup, and i think the green on my hair works really well with the poisonous, witchy look!

List of products used :

1. Mizon Snail Repair BB Cream

2. K-Palette Zero Teka Oil Matte Powder

3. Black eyeshadow from Australis palette

4. Mai Doll Brown Liquid Eyeliner

5. Maybelline Fashion Brow 24 HR Coloring Mascara in Rusty Brown

7. Mustika Ratu Simply Stay powder used as nose contour
8. Clinique Blush On

9. Oriflame Tender Care

10. LA Girl Creme Lip Color in Dreamer

11. Esprique Precious Double Shine Face Powder

I didn't actually buy the lipstick for Halloween, i just really love dark lipstick and truly didn't know that Dreamer is well... Black. I do want a black lipstick, but when i purchased Dreamer, i really thought it'd be very deep purple that it's almost black. But no, it's pure black alright. Not the easiest lipstick to apply in the world, but for IDR 40.000 i wouldn't complain. It's not like i'm going to wear it all that often anyway.

Then i had some fun with my veiled headband...

Hm. It actually has a small, pointy witch hat, but the veil is so much more interesting. And it's very hard to include the hat in selfies....

Ready for series of photos where i look meaner, bitchier than ever?

I didn't actually have to try to look mean *sigh*, hello normal face/resting bitch face

Deliberately circled my eyes with black eyeliner, it's always easier to look mean with slitty, slanty eyes than rounded, wide ones okay!

I got asked if i bought my outfit for Halloween, well... I didn't! I didn't even realize it's Halloween appropriate when i bought it! The girl modelling this outfit looked so innocent...

But i did buy the skull clutch because Halloween was near! I knew i could wear it then. I've always loved goth style, and skulls in everything-but my mum's extremely superstitious that she'd scold me whenever i try to wear anything with skull in it! As i grow older, she seems to relax and probably accepts that her youngest daughter's not all that normal (she still complained about the skulls and ghosts on my nail art and she was scared when she saw me on the two days i wore my Halloween makeup *LOL*, i seriously didn't think my blue lipstick made me look that scary! She said i "look like Halloween", errrr... Whatever that supposed to mean hahaha)

I can pretend that i fortune tell using my hot pink skul hahaha (yeah, they didn't come in any menacing colors, sadly. Only hot pink and purple)


Outfit details : Top and tube top (worn as skirt) : Online See through gold stars skirt : Online Skull bracelets : Stroberi Leopard necklace : Online Heels : Everbest

I actually got more likes on Instagram for the first picture than my Monster High one (i got a lot of love for Monster High on FB though, which is totally unexpected)-which look do you prefer on me?

Will be back with event reports and other things, hopefully sooner than later (laziness, go away! I've been hooked on Lifetime's Flowers in the Attic series *which totally means a halt in productivity* and now proceed on reading the books. Thank you A for giving me a new thing to obsess on *stare*. It's just to... twisted and delicious! And disgusting too, but that's the beauty of fictions, right? To see a world which you do not ever hope to see in real world!).

Pink Valentine

baby pink

Hello guys *glum*.

How's everybody doing? Me, not so good. No idea what happened but i had to get up almost 7 times last night because i had a severe case of... errrr... There's no gentle way to say this : diarrhea *LOL*. Apparently not only me, my mum and Baby Boy also suffered from the same thing (so was a few of our maids). Baby Boy was so dizzy that he threw up this morning when we tried to get him ready for school, so of course he had to stay at home despite having a test today *sigh*. Thankfully he's already feeling good in the afternoon, the same sadly cannot be said about my mum and i.

I missed a whole day sleeping and couldn't even sit too long without feeling like puking *double sigh*. I am better now, but still nauseated and dizzy-really hope that i'd be completely healthy tomorrow, it's Chinese New Year's eve! We got the whole celebration planned out already, i cannot afford to be sick tomorrow! Plus being a superstitious Chinese that i am, i believe i need to welcome the new year with full health so that i would be healthy throughout the year too. Weird logic? LOL.

Anyway, it was a well needed rest anyway, i had a very full weekend+Monday... And i planned to blog about this yesterday night-too tired to do so though, but here it is at last : my Pink Valentine's Day look :

Yes, i know i look very cliche and Valentine-ish that i was a bit embarrassed when we went to the mall that day haha (yes, people stared. They always do). I almost always dress in pink on Valentine's Day because i love thematic looks but also because as you should already know by heart, i LOVE pink! But this was not exactly the look i would've gone for if not for Cherish's birthday dresscode! LL asked me to wear a tutu and a plain tee. While i do have a few other (okay, a lot -___-) of tutu skirts, what my wardrobe lack of is... Plain tee! What do you know...

I am not much of a tee person (i wear tee for housewear and to exercise, mainly!), and those tees i have... They're not plain. I finally found this plain pink tee with ruffled and ribbony chiffon sleeves, and that's the best i can do!

I was still having my period and was super bloated :(...

I really do love tutu skirts although it's not exactly very flattering, it makes my hips looks big and it's not even that big (i mean... It's big if you compare it to skinny girls' hips, but it's very normal for my proportion) but sometimes girls just dress on whatever way they want to dress, even if it doesn't make her look skinnier

Angling is everything though, i am quite amazed at how sharp my chin looks in this pic *LOL*. My face's round like a moon IRL

I was quite happy of how the whole look ended up together, even if i was a bit self conscious about looking like a beached whale

Here's my simple and soft #FOTD or #MOTD to compliment the softness of the outfit :

Why do i look like a chipmunk sometimes?

Here's the list of products used to achieve this look :
1. Benefit Some Kinda Gorgeous Foundation Faker
2. Johnson's Mini Face Powder in Rose Pink
3. Daiso (Ellefar Color) Glitter Eye Shadow Palette in Lilac (i only use the pink color)
4. Mai Doll Black Liquid Eyeliner
5. Majolica Majorca Lash King Mascara
6. Collection Work the Color Eye Shadow Pencil in Vintage Blush
7. Canmake Loose Cheek Blush On in 01
8. Bee Balm (use as lip balm)
9. Hello Kitty pale pink lipstick
10. Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss in 060 Shine That Pink
11. Esprique Precious Double Shine Face Powder to highlight my nose bridge
(edit : totally forgot to add elf eye primer, DHC Medicated Acne Care Concealer and Clinique All About Eyes Concealer that i use in every look hahaha)

Have i ever told you how much i love Daiso's glitter eye shadow palettes? I have two, and i will be keeping my eyes and see if they have other shades in June :D (coz Indonesian Daiso's so lame, they do not carry the cosmetics here).

So shiny, glittery and pretty... I love it more than other eyeshadow triple its price!

Errrr laugh lines alert, should i start considering botox...

Pale pink's definitely the theme here. I kinda felt weird because i haven't been wearing such a sheer color in a while!

I also chose pinky accessories of course, i totally forgot to snap a pic of them together but here are some of what i wore... Eh, i also forgot to snap pic of the necklace by itself but you can see from the photos above that i am wearing a baby pink stone necklace.

It's actually from Green Earth, i have quite a collection of them although i didn't buy them for the benefit but purely because i like how they look, i ended up clutching on hope that it really works. I have been unreasonably down and losing my sense of self worth lately, it just makes me feel so ugly. I don't normally believe in worldly possessions being able to change you mood/luck/whatever, but at times like these i grasp on anything that can bring positivity into my life-even if it's just a suggestion. I chose this necklace because it goes with my outfit, but when i read the words "heal the heart" and "possitive affirmations for self-trusts and self-worth" i feel like it's totally meant to be. Been wearing this every time i go out haha

I also wore Flash Tattoo from Me-Nail again, this time in the shape of seashells

Baby pink Aigner leather wrap bracelet and a beautiful tear drop ring on my right hand


Outfit details : Pink Top with Chiffon Sleeves : J-Rep Tutu Skirt : Mifasol Room Braided belt : Jakarta Baby Pink Bag : Rebecca Minkoff Jelly wedges : Online

I'm not gonna lie, when is see the pictures i zoomed in on my huge arms zzz. But like Leah said, i should focus on what my arms has done for me instead of beating myself up for not having a smaller pair ^^.

That's all for now, i better get back to resting so that i would feel top notch tomorrow!

Oh yeah, have you joined my All About Fashion Giveaway? Would mean the world for me if you could! Thank you!
