A plate of decapitated head, anyone?

:: did u know - gaddafi trivia ::

Let's take a break from talking about fashion, beauty, daily activities, et cetera et cetera...

Just a short one though.

The world was shocked knowing about the death of Muammar Gaddafi, the Libya's head of state who was killed after being captured by the Libyan fighters two days ago. I didn't know much about him earlier so when I was discussing about his death with my colleagues on Friday morning, I searched the Wikipedia and we were surprised to find that...

Muammar Gaddafi

.......was born in 1942

.......started ruling Libya in 1969

.......ruled Libya for 42 years

.......died at the age of 69

Repetitive numbers! What a coincidence, isn't it? 

A bit creepy too *goosebumps*

:: pastel friday ::

I chose pastel colours for my casual Friday outfit. A combination of pink and blue paired with off-white handbag and grey pants...

What do you think?

I like the colour combination a lot. I was very comfortable and felt confident through out the day. On another note, I just love my entire collection of Dorothy Perkins basic tee. I have almost 10 of them in different colours. Not only comfortable, they have helped me a lot in transforming myself into different looks and style. I plan to write a 'tribute' post for my basic tee one day, but as for now...

HAPPY WEEKEND PEEPS!

:: christmas 2011 makeup gift sets ::

Christmas is coming soon. Not that I'm celebrating one but it's that time of the year when cosmetics and perfumes come in pretty, limited edition gift sets. It's the perfect time to splurge all the money you have because the sets are usually worth-buying. I envy girls who are celebrating their birthday at the end of the year because they can always ask for one as a prezzie. If nobody is available to buy for them, they also have a concrete reason to spend their money on any set of their choice as a birthday gift for self. It's so unfair! My birthday is in January and the good ones are usually gone by that time *sad face*.

So far I only found info on gift sets from two famous makeup brands but believe that more brands will release theirs in the near future. 

First, let's see what Estee Lauder brings us for Christmas 2011. Last year they had a success by collaborating with Coach so they remain the same strategy and collaborates with a famous American fashion designer, Michael Kors for this year's collection. 

Silver, gold or bronze? You still have time to choose before they hit the counter soon. (I like the gold pouch but not the make up colours).

Another line of christmas gift sets is from a brand with cute vintage packaging, Benefit Cosmetics. Let's start with the perfume, The Crescent Row Set which consists of 10 ml of each scent...



...and followed by the worth buying " I'm Glam Therefore I am" palette set which is jam-packed with four eye shadow shades, a face powder in Glamming, a mini tube of Girl Meets Pearl face highlighter, mini Badgal Lash mascara, Life on the A List lip gloss and a brush. Wow, what else can you ask for but this is not the end...



...because here comes the Ticket to Glossytown set... 

It's a lip gloss set consists of 6 pretty shades in So Frisk Me, Nudie Tude, Spiked Punch, Life on the  List, Kiss You and Foxy Lady. I'm not only in love with the gloss tubes but also the packaging. Too cute to resist!

So now, what say you...Any liking?

Right now, I'm in L.O.V.E with

...

my new handbag

...

I've been searching for a new white handbag for almost a year now (refer this entry) but the perfect white ones usually come with a hefty price. When I saw that cute bag in Charles & Keith, Empire Gallery weeks before the mall was exploded, it was love at first sight. I didn't buy it right away though because what I had in my mind as my perfect white bag were either one of these beauties...

Anyway, they are both far beyond reach at the moment *sobbing* so after few more visits to the C&K boutique I finally purchased the cute patent quilted bag yesterday in Mid Valley. The colour is off-white and I like everything about that bag. It's small, glossy and what I love the most are the ribbon, the gold plated flip closure and the chains. I'm happy but that doesn't mean I'm forgetting the Wilshire and the Alma.

...

Just to let you know that I'm also in L.O.V.E with this:

 Loacker Napolitaner in Hazelnut

RM8.90 for 175g

A tester size was included in the goodie bag I received during Secretary Luncheon at Menara KL earlier this year. The company's marketing strategy was successful because I'm addicted to this biscuit ever since I tasted it. Usually bought it in the smallest pack priced around RM2.60 - RM2.80 so when I saw a bigger size pack at Jusco yesterday, I just couldn't resist to purchase one. I usually prefer biscuits in chocolate flavour but this time, hazelnut rules. Yummeyh!

:: happy birthday nor! ::

To a wonderful friend aka. my partner-in-crime,

Wishing you all happiness in the world

&

may you'll be blessed with a great, successful life ahead.

Welcome to the big THREE yow!
