Pink Explosion

top and shorts: Forever21

shoes: Jeffrey Campbell Lita

lipstick: Mac Candy Yumyum

Yep, decided not to sell these pink babies. I guess I never really wanted to. So, I waited for the perfect occasion to wear it : Chinese New Year. This would be my go to "we're-chinese-therefore-we-wear-colorful-clothes-on-special-occasions" shoes. Admittedly though, it might be considered hideous by the traditional Chinese oldies..(I'm not being age-ist or racist ok, I actually heard one of them say it.) Who cares??? I want them. And my dad has long given up on my wardrobe choices, so there!

Anyways...

I've rediscovered my love for my Candy YumYum. I've forgotten just how shockingly neon it is. Just look at the first photo! Malayo pa lang, kitang kita na!!! It's the first pink lipstick that I ever loved like this.. hahaha.. Pardon the "lipstick addict" babble..can't help it.

That's it for now. Talk to you all soon.. 

A Trip to Salcedo

tee: Forever21

blazer: somewhere in HK

shoes: Topshop

lips: Mac Candy Yumyum

Went for a very basic outfit because we were headed for a market. I've had this tee since last year and is probably one of my most worn clothing. It's super comfy and fuss free. And my boyfriend was beyond ecstatic to see me in flats and not in Litas. He despises my JC babies a little because it make me a wee bit taller than him. I did bring a blazer with me because we dropped by Rockwell Bazaar that night.

Also, put on very minimal make up. Tinted moisturizer, light eyebrow powder, touch of mascara and of course the infamous highlighter pink Candy Yumyum lipstick.  My face felt naked w/o my eyeliner. 

After our disappointment with the food in Mercato, the boyfriend and I dragged our "anti-morning selves" to Salcedo Market a few Saturdays ago. We were a little more prepared this time. I did a little bit of research the night before. My favorites were the samosa and baklava. The Japanese pancake was yummy as well... actually most of the food we tried were quite delicious. Unlike in Mercato were the food were mostly redundant, Salcedo has a very wide variety. I'm been planning to go back with my friends soon. It's worth the early morning call.

Phink It Over!

I've been totally boring these days.... I've lost my mojo. 

I'll come back when I find it again. 

The Lip Says IT All

Top: Topshop

Vest: Forever21

Shorts: SM Dept Store

Shoes: Soule Phenomenon

Lips: Mac Candy Yumyum

It was all about the lips! Obviously!

Kept the outfit monochromatic because I wanted to give that "fhink lippy" the attention it deserves. And boy did it get a lot of those and a bit of pointing too. I didn't mind for the most part because I shouldn't really expect anything less. 

It's been a while though since I've been in love with an outfit...this is the first time in quite some time. Maybe it's the greys and blacks. Or maybe it's because those are my favorite pair of shoes. I don't know... I just kinda really like this. 

Too bad I don't have any detail shot of my rings. We were in a hurry. I'll show it next time. 

Mac Quite Cute

Candy Yumyum Lipstick

Giggly Mineralized Blush

One can never be too old for cute stuff right?  RIGHT? 

At first I wasn't really excited for this collection. Pastels don't really work well with my skin tone. 

But after seeing video review Candy Yumyum I knew I had to have it. It's the neon-est pink I've ever seen. And it's a matte! and I've read that it works well with yellow based tones. SOLD!

Almost didn't get it, I was late by a mere 10mins and it was sold out in Trinoma. Luckily we were heading out to Shang the same day...so the rest as they say is history. 

And I couldn't pass up the blush either. it has a freakin' heart on it. Too cute!

How 'bout you? Do you think you'd wear this shade? Yay or nay?
