Updates + OOTD

Hello! I've jumped back on the blogwagon :) Haha, anyway I haven't been able to read blog updates because my internet has been so slow for the past 5 days. In Australia, we get capped internet which means that when we reach a certain amount of downloads (GB) for the month, the net becomes really slow! Nothing loads or it all takes ages to load which is so frustrating :( I hope Australia can be a little more like the US or other places in the world that don't have capped internet! I'd love to know, do you have unlimited internet?

So how are we all? I hope you're well. This post will just be an update of what I've been up to in the past couple of weeks. Not much though because I've been going to school.

Thanks for all the wonderful feedback from my last post :) I'll definitely have another FOTD and OOTD on my blog.

Last week I went to David Jones to collect my free sample of the Esteè Lauder Pleasures Bloom Eau De Parfum. I was sent this voucher by email from Marie Claire (Magazine):

To my Australian readers, sorry if it's not big enough for to print out and use. But if it is, feel free to use it ^__^ However you can email if you'd like the proper-sized one.

David Jones is an department store but has a lot of high-end brands. The lady that served me was really nice, and I mean really nice. She had a smile on her face and she happily took a sample from the drawer and handed it to me. She said "enjoy using this" instead of something typical like "here you go, see ya later".

For me it's not an addictive scent but I like it and would use it :] The scent is not overpowering and is suitable for young women. It smells very floral!

Have you tried this Esteè Lauder perfume or any other from Esteè Lauder? What did you think of it?

Something also perfume-related was when I was looking for my friend's birthday present (the 18th I went to last week). I went in Myer (another department store like David Jones) to look for perfume and ladies there approached me and ask whether I'd like to have a sprayed sample of it on a card. That day I collected so many different ones! I put them all in my wallet to make it smell nice inside hehe.

One lady had the Fan di Fendi perfume but instead of just giving me a sprayed card, she also gave me a wristband of the perfume sprayed on it at least 5 times! The perfume is still quite strong haha

I don't know if I'd wear this out in public but it's cool

I've also been to Morning Glory a few times in the past few weeks and these are some things that I bought:

Rose mirror :) I've never had a mirror with a handle on it. It's so cute and it's great for applying eye make-up

Pig Rabbit!! You might think it's a little weird but it's the replica of the Pig Rabbit in the Korean drama 'You're Beautiful'

What it symbolises in the drama is really cute ^_^
If you're into K-dramas, this is one to watch

Morning Glory also have these keyrings of Asian meat and food
Only the buns made me hungry. The meat has too much fat on them =__=
The bento boxes and the soup bowls were cute


And now to the next thing in this post, my OOTD :)

Yesterday was my last day of term 3 which means that after my two weeks of holidays, I'll only have TWO WEEKS OF SCHOOL LEFT FOREVER! Oh my goodness, time has flown by so quickly...

The whole school wore casuals clothes instead of uniform because at the end of term 3 we have something called Social Justice Day where the whole school raises money for charities and also orphanages in places like Cambodia and Vietnam. The weather was lovely and I think I got sunburnt on my face from sitting outside for too long without wearing sunscreen T___T This is something I don't miss about Summer!! And it's only Spring here :( Having sensitive skin for me means that I burn easily =[

There are pics of the day on Facebook so for this I'll just upload a OOTD picture :D

Excuse the messy floor, it's all for studying

Accidentally missed my eyes when I took this pic haha...

Cardigan from Portmans, short sleeve top from Temt, denim-inspired leggings from ICE, belt from MCL Fashion, beaded necklace from Gloss, chained necklace and heart bracelet from Diva, earrings from Equip, shoulder bag from Dolly

Sorry I didn't take a picture of my top without my cardigan on =/
But I did find a Facebook photo of me without it

It wasn't a good picture, that's why my face is cropped out LOL
Definitely not tagged on Facebook anyway :P

You may have noticed that my hair wasn't straight in those pics. I waved my hair using a mini hair straightener, otherwise known as a mini flat iron :) It was really simple! I could do a tutorial if anyone is interested.

NOTD - Revlon Sheer Translucide Nail Enamel in 007 Sheer Blossom


That's all for this post. I'm on holidays for two weeks :) Expect more blogging from me!

FOTN and OOTN

Hello this is my first Face of the Night and Outfit of the Night blog entry. As you may or may not know, I was out last night for my friend's 18th celebration so I'll be incorporating some images from that night :]

Products used


FOTN - Pale Pink & Brown


Eyes:
Urban Decay Primer Potion
Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Shadow & Liner for Hazel Eyes
Physicians Formula Flat Automatic Eyeliner Pencil
Face of Australia Liquid Eyeliner in Charcoal
BeautySnapz Eyeliner Sealer
Simple False Eyelashes
Duo Eyelash Adhesive Clear-White
Maybelline Pulse Perfection Mascara

Face:
Australis Primer
Revlon Colorstay Velvet Creme 020 Natural Tan
Revlon Matte Powder Blush in 001 Rose Rapture

Lips:
Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in 131 Ginger
Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick in 700 Nude Delight
Esteè Lauder Pure Colour Lipgloss in Passion Fruit Shimmer

- I tried the BeautySnapz Eyeliner Sealer to review! I'll talk about that soon
- I probably should have filled in my brows but I didn't want them to stand out more than my not-so-bold eye make up
- I put a few layers on my lips to create a coral-y peach colour

The BeautySnapz Eyeliner Sealer is this:


And basically it is used after applying eyeliner, hence this is why it's called a sealer not a primer

My eyeliner did stay put throughout however the eyeliner itself could have just remained on my eyes without smudging or fading.

With that said I will say that it can work but I recommend that you purchase a good waterproof/smudgeproof liquid eyeliner instead of buying an eyeliner sealer :)

Now to my OOTN

Sexy back? LOL

♥ Dress from ICE
♥ Heels from Spendless Shoes
Haha yeah.. I didn't get to wear the heels that I ordered.. still haven't arrived yet! But they have been shipped. Will probably get them next week.

♥ Bag from Strandbags

Accessories:
♥ Diva bracelets
♥ Equip necklace and ring
Oops I forgot to take a photo of my earrings...


There we go! Completed FOTN and OOTN :)
♥ Earrings from Diva

The night was quite lovely and lots of funny and memorable things occurred
I'll leave you with some photos :D

Purple semi-formal theme :)




Upstairs

Upstairs overlooking downstairs
It was so embarrassing when a lady came up to tell me and my friend that we were standing against the black steel railing(pictured)

She was like "You might want to stand away from here because we can see up your dresses!"
I was sooooo embarrassed!! I think she could have worded it in a better way but nope it had to be straight-forward and direct haha... I guess I'm glad she didn't tell just me because I had my friend there too. And I wore skin-coloured stockings so I wasn't too fussed, but still hahaha T_T

Everyone looked gorgeous of course and it was fun dancing on the dance floor :P

My friend took this photo - she didn't dance!

We were doing 'The Nutbush' which apparently is an Australian dance thing like 'The Macarena'. It just consists of side, front and back steps with kicks to the left and right. It may sound confusing/hard but it's actually really simple. Youtube probably has a few examples haha

Naww I like this :)
Birthday girl on the left

Birthday cake and my gift on the left (purple gift bag)

So yep that's all!
