chic jewelry


Snakeskin/Link Bangles by Vita, Necklace by BonnieBasham
These silver mixed with snakeskin exudes both uber chic & classic look. Solo bangles work for those who fancy clean, uncomplicated style. Donning a stack of them spell F.U.N.K.Y.
Bonnie Basham's necklace. I just love them. My favourite.
5-Strand Amazonite Necklace & M&J Savitt 6-Strand Bone Necklace by M&J Savitt
Timeless pieces. Paired with a fabulous gown, it does not steal limelights from your dress.

Compact perfume

I went for Christmas shopping yesterday – spent a bomb. But I did manage to get a little something for myself.

A solid perfume - Mimosa Solid Perfume by L’occitane. Fresh smell of magnolia. I have chosen this, contemplating this or Green tea (best seller).
A sniff to perk you up and rub it on if you need to add a heavier note to your scent.
I am a sucker for multi function items.

These solid perfumes are great for a night out when you NEED to use that small/tiny purse. Remember, sometime ago I mentioned Stila’s solid perfume.

Here is some other to choose from.



Clockwise from left :

So In Love by Victoria's Secret, maybe baby by Benefit, Fantasy Britney Spears, Marc Jacobs,

Estee Lauder Touch Perfume, Island by Micheal Kors, Stella In Two and Rococo Rouge Gelee de Parfum

I am loving these compacts for its versatility - so travel friendly!

Tell me if you know any perfume that comes in compacted size.

Brand new heels

I am wearing this pair of stubby heels I bought some months ago. Pretty. Gosh, it is painful and very uncooperative with my feets. The straps is somehow inadequate. Either that, or my feet is not designed for these heels. This gives me a lesson about thinking twice for love at first try shoes. Well, I did think twice – saw it the first time, lemming for it, and 2nd trip was to bring her home. So much for the money spent – enough for me to get a whole get-up outfit.

Well, when choosing heels make sure you get your size right. Right size, not bigger, not smaller. Take your sweet time to try them out. Don’t just slip them on. Buckle it, strap it, like how you would wear it out… and walk walk WALK, at least 10 – 15 steps or more (if the SA allows).

Try staircase walking too. Stand in them longer than 5 minutes – ask yourself, are they comfy?
Make sure your heels matches your dress/pants/skirt.

If there is no doubt. Buy it. And it doesn’t end here. Don’t keep it and then wear it on your first date or any function. Try it on at home, walk in it. So that when you actually wear it, you will feel much comfort.

So much for my tips.

Edited: My heels looks like Kate Bosworth's... anyone know who is it from?
