Creeps of the Day...

Hi lovlies.. I had a little creepy morning.. this is what happen...

Well.. my car is supposedly coming back home soon~ so my hubby thought I should start driving again. Literally I stopped driving for months.. so I thought it was a good idea. Driving is not as scary as I thought it would be after the accident.. I am still more sensitive than before... about anything.. but I think I will be ok. I usually turned into this small street but there was a stupid person standing in the middle of the turned lane! Er.. I hate it when people stand in the middle of the street? Does he have a death wish? There is no cross walk, so at least cross when there is no car around.. not in the busy morning time when people are off to work!!!





So I avoided him and turned into the next street... as I was turning, there was a stupid dog standing in the middle of the street! Luckily I thought “ he’s standing on the other lane.. not going to bother me”.. but there was another car coming from the other direction & the dog moved toward my lane! So my hubby start screaming “ Careful!” & I was just shock for a little bit because the dog was kind of at my blind spot when he moved, so I barely saw the stupid dog... errr.. lucky dog, nothing happen to him..  = =... Idk if he have a owner, no chain or anything on him~ 

I was trying to find a stupid dog pix, but all I found were cute ones.. & this one is so sad, the dog is trying to help the other dog that got hit... 

After I arrive at work, I was bored because getting dropped off meaning getting to work EXTRA early.. so I decided to go to the convenient store and buy some breakfast. I went through the backdoor because it was closer, & than I saw a bunch of construction worker guys from next door standing around looking at me.. WEIRD... so I quickly walk pass by them... as I approach to the lights, I saw the drivers in the cars looking at me... errr... this is unlike my old office building, where the nearby streets area always filled with people. Now, there is no one around me.. ehh.. scary.. Thank GOD it’s day time..( of course I would never walking around by myself at night...)



I bought some donuts & left the store, on my way back a black guy said “ hey beautiful” or whatever he said I didn’t listen. I don’t have anything against black guys, no matter the race, it’s just creepy for a stranger to say those things to me.. errr... Finally, I am almost back into the office building, I made another mistake by thinking going back in the back door will be faster... IT WAS LOCKED!..  ahhhh!! ok.. so now I have to pass by the construction worker guys AGAIN to go around to the front door.... & I got another “ morning” greeting.. hahaha..



Ok... so that was my creepy morning.. oh & the donuts taste horrible. 

I can’t wait to get my car back.. I miss it SO MUCH.. 

How was your morning?

Makeup Mondays With Mario: Blush That Won't Budge


Celebrity makeup artist Mario Dedivanovic is answering your burning beauty questions!!! Every Monday, he will answer a beauty/skin care question as part of a weekly column on Spoiled Pretty, Makeup Mondays with Mario.

Hi Mario,

I love your blog, and have been reading all your posts at Spoiled Pretty! I need some help with making my powder blush last. I put on my blush after applying my primer, cream foundation, and loose powder. I am using a variety of blushes, including NARS, MAC, and Wet n' Wild, but none of them seem to stay. Is there anything I can do to get my powder blush to last longer? Thanks!

-Cassidey

Hi Cassidey!

Powder products tend to stay better on moisturized skin. You mentioned that you're using a primer, cream foundation and loose powder which all work. However, using an emollient moisturizer will certainly help your blush and any powders to last longer.

Another way to get your cheeks blushing longer is to first apply a cream blush and follow with a powder blush right over it. I do that often when I need a client's makeup to last through the day and night.

Thanks for visiting Makeup Mondays With Mario!

xo,
Mario

OPI Black Shatter and the Katy Perry Collection


I can't remember the last time I was this excited about my nails. Peep my polish...I layered OPI's new Black Shatter over top of MAC Nail Lacquer in Soiree (from their Cham Pale collection) to create a rose gold leopard-esque print!

Black Shatter creates a crackled finish when applied over any dried nail polish (it doesn't work on bare nails - I tried). It accompanies the Katy Perry Collection by OPI - which is gorgeous in its own right.


Teenage Dream


 
Not Like the Movies



Last Friday Night



The One That Got Away

When I saw an ad for this collection in one of my fashion magazines, I instantly fell for the glittery shades: Teenage Dream and Last Friday Night. But after OPI sent me some samples to review, the others won me over in a big way. At first glance, Not Like The Movies may look like your standard silver, but it's actually a light purple and green duochrome that is perfect for those who love to rock an edgier nail. And The One That Got Away is the most beautiful berry shimmer I've seen in a long while.

I've been meaning to do some more swatches and post the pictures - which I still intend to do. So check back soon...

The Katy Perry Collection by OPI launches this month at Professional Salons, including Beauty Brands, Beauty First, Chatters, Dillard's, JCPenney, Pure Beauty, Regis, Trade Secret, and ULTA, for $8.50 ($10.95 CAN) each.

Even though I already own one of each, I plan on buying (and hoarding) at least two more bottles of the Black Shatter...and I suggest you do the same.

20-30% Off at AnnTaylor.com

Take 20% off your full-price purchase of $100 or more or take 30% off your full-price purchase of $200 or more at anntaylor.com. The offer is valid now through February 20, 2011 (To redeem, enter code 10801122334 at checkout). You're welcome.

I already own this open cardigan in camel - and I've been meaning to pick up some other colors, but it kept slipping my mind. Good thing I'm absent-minded because I just snagged two more (in black and gray) - and I got the 20% off - plus one of the sweaters was half off with some other limited time offer.

Fashion Show Spring&Summer 2011

Hi lovlies~  Today my topic is fashion... after all the dramas last year... I kinda forgot about school for a while... I was planning to study fashion design.. see how that goes... so yeah I already enrolled in one class this coming semester. I actually already taken some sewing classes in HS & college. So I do kinda feel like this class well be a duplicate of what I did before. Though, those were “sewing” class instead of “fashion” class so I suppose it’s different?

I have a friend who’s working in the fashion industry now... I don’t think she took fashion classes before, & her goal was actually not fashion related, but she seems to really like her job now. I was wondering if I should just be like her to find a job in fashion industry & than look for better opportunities once I have some experience. However, her pay is not high, so she seems to be just be there for the experience so she can move forward.

I feel like everything I am interested doesn’t really come with a big paycheck....unless I am famous... lol.. but oh wells, I am just trying out what interests me... hopefully I will eventually find a career that I truly desire.

So I was looking though some fashion shows & I have to say I agree with everyone who loves Alexander McQueen. I love all the dramatic styles, beautiful colors...I love every single piece!


Chanel Spring Summer 2011
I love many pieces from the Chanel collection. Other than classic, there’s also exciting fashion forward pieces. The overall atmosphere of the stage is breathtaking; I cannot imagine a more beautiful stage.

Do you have a favorite designer? 

What’s your dream career?
