Valentine's Day Inspired Nail Art

Pale pink OPI & essie sparkles.

Sparkly red OPI & manicurist's mix of nude. This is my first time getting my nails done with soft gel in a nail salon & my experience at Nail Box Causeway Bay was really bad. The manicurist had a major attitude problem, complaining endlessly about how hard it is to remove my DIY sparkley polish, throwing stuff, sighing.. Another manicurist was being clueless the whole time; I had to tell him how to mix a nude shade using white, yellow & pink paint. It took 5 failed attempts by different manicurists to draw a heart, until finally the owner came to the rescue. The result is amateurish & the red color smudging onto the nude shade; they charged HK$308 & still had the nerve asking if I were gonna take a package. Ugh. I so will NOT. 

Mad About These Leopard Print Men's Shoes

Found these cool pair in a random outlet at Wharf T&T in Kwun Tong for HK$169!

Bought them for SC but I think he's not in love with them :( story of my life :(

Pffft. Better buy for myself next time.

Easy & Pretty Storage Necklace

I have a confession to make. I buy necklaces, I buy lots and lots of necklaces.
But I almost NEVER wear them.
One of the reasons is because they are all tangled together into a huge pile of monstrous mess and I hardly can see all of the necklaces that I have.

I saw this necklace storage solution a few times on Pinterest and thought that it is pretty cool, it works, and it's totally doable! So went ahead and did it.

This way, each necklace will have its own hook, the possibility of them getting tangled together is dramatically reduced, and I can look at all of them - it does NOT make choosing easier though :p


Plus, it makes use of my corridor and it looks pretty.


All I had to do was to purchase cheap kitchen railings and hooks from IKEA and get them installed.
This works like magic for me... maybe until I bought many more necklaces I don't need :)

Shopping Kate Spade Outlet Citygate Hong Kong

My first time roaming around Citygate outlets without naughty baby :) 

Here's my loot from Kate Spade.

This bag is light, can be a shoulder/sling bag. The color should be pretty easy to go with anything. HK$1,650. Ooops. SC just found out & is now scolding me.

My wallet is falling apart & this one is too cute to be true! It has notes & coin & plenty of cards compartments. HK$800.

I'm now officially banned from shopping. 

OB's Outfit

Look at my boy werking it. Fierce!

Mama's proud :D

He's wearing Uniqlo tee, earthy tones Hawaiian shorts from Global Works, Hallmark socks & Adidas sneakers.

Navy Blue & Pastel Yellow

What I'm wearing to work today. I just realized that my necklace matches my pants & my shoes matches my dress! 

Lady story dress (I have this in 3 colors), uniqlo pants (I have this in 5 colors!!!), M&S shoes (I can only wear it in the office) & monki necklace :)

Make Up Shopping - NYX

OMG, can someone stop me from shopping? We just got a car & SC's nightly driving practice to the malls isn't helping my shopping madness!

Last night I saw a huge NYX counter in Tsuen Wan's City Landmark & could not resist getting this make up palette in a cute box. It has neutral shadow colors that I already have (sigh...), few shades of blush & bronzer. It cost HK$290.

It'd be great for business trips (more excuses from a shopping addict).

I also have a major addiction to buying eyeliner pencil, so I'm trying out this brown one. So far so good, it costs HK$85.

Please no more shopping mall tonight.
