Hello Kitty Flowers

hello, I’ve been so busy with family and friends that I haven’t even taken many photos! it’s taking it’s toll on me because now I’m slightly ill with a cold, due to lack of sleep and super cold air con!=_= Anyway, it was my mum’s birthday and we bought her these flowers. so cute.

Also ordered a haagen dazs ice cream cake! cost around $350 HKD ! it was mango flavour and so yummy! there wasn’t even any cake though, it’s full ice cream ^___^

mmmm and I’ve been eating sushi a lot again.

and congee for breakfast.

So here’s more pandas I spotted whilst out shopping! I have a radar for pandas !! These are from Nico!

hmmm more panda socks I got xD

etude house hand creams !

Panda yoghurt drink, from panda Tea ^^

cute little shop in Sha Tin.

Panda birthday rabbits!

And more panda stuff. I think I might end up buying everything here! I already have 2 of the plushies =]

okay that’s it for now, I’m too tired =__=!

Food and shopping in Hong Kong

hello! I made it to Hong Kong =D

So one of the first things I bought were goodies from Sasa. SPF 65 and SPF 130 suncream- an essential for me to prevent getting a tan whilst I’m here and also to protect my skin!

^ on the left is something I picked up by majolica majorca (sp?) and it’s called aurora tear liner. It’s supposed to go on your eyelashes and look like a tear, to give the effect that you’ve been crying.! lol not sure why I would like to look like I’ve been crying but. for some reason I just wanted to try this out! Will review it another time.

^ i bought the fairydrops mascara for going to the beach/ swimming in! because apparently it’s super waterproof =] and I tried it out, it really is waterproof. Plus it has fibres too like fiberwig and the way the brush is shaped it makes your lashes curl =] I actually really like this mascara.

my first and favourite dinner in HK ^_^ sushi!! and it’s so cheap here too compared to UK

yummy curry fish balls.

I also bought missha bb cream and some eyemakeup remover from skinfood.I really needed this as the Fairydrops mascara was so stubborn it didn’t come off with normal facial cleansers!

And in HK there really are panda things everywhere you look! I bought these 2 pairs of socks:

Saw a whole shop full of panda stuffs ^^

random ducks lol. spot the panda!

oh and this is my favourite buy so far. it was only 129HKD which is like, £10 !! who needs an expensive designer wallet when you can have a cute panda one with polka dot lining ? =]

and lastly for now, I saw this when I was out shopping! anybody recognise this face?! XD

That’s all for now, will be back soon =]

Coral outfit + DIY lace trim undershorts

I bought these shorts at TOPSHOP last week with my striped ones. ( I have so many pairs of shorts but i justify that by wearing them all year around !)
So i really liked this pale red/coral colour. They were super comfy as the material stretches ^^. SAM_2579e

I wanted to put some lace trimming on these shorts because they look really short on me.
But I didn’t want to accidentally ruin a brand new pair of shorts so instead I decided to make lace trim undershorts that I could wear under anything ^^ (similar to the ones in this post but they were too tight and too thick/warm to wear underneath in the HK summer)
So here is my mini tutorial:

tip: measure the trimming around your legs first! or else get elasticated lace trimming. my tights were patterned but any tights/stockings will do.

^ they add a little something to plain shorts =]

^ my face looks funny here o.O
It just so happened this stripy top was an exact colour match to my shorts =]. The over knee socks are actually cut off from the original tights so no material was wasted = double DIY ^_^
p.p.s. I am going to Hong Kong in 3 days !
can’t wait =)
