Bamboo tablet!

So I got the Wacom Bamboo Capture Tablet and have been experimenting with it since I got home! Took me about 15 minutes to get a hang of it but boy it's fun! I'm loving it already! 


I can see my soon-to-come travel pictures will be going up a notch! Can't wait till I get home and start going over all the memorable moments of this trip! :)

Whimsy

I randomly stumbled upon Bianca Green's work and boy oh boy I am in love! The way she magically combines her prints with day-to-day objects has left me feeling rather whimsical, not to mention a bit like Alice in Wonderland! And did I mention I am a sucker for doodles?

Am currently debating whether I should get her iPhone skins (here and here).  The detailing and colours of the prints are leaving me gasping for air!

The glittery glittery eye

I am a person who sucks at make-up. Most likely because I am rather lazy and the only thing I can cope with each morning is a quick liner fix and the trust worthy mascara. Eye shadow, on the other hand, is like no man's land to me. Perhaps it's due to the fact that I never spent the time to learn how to apply it properly. Having seen this glittery eye on The Beauty Department made me jump a little. It makes brown eyes look so adorable! :)

FYI there was a phase where I applied a golden kohl on top of my brown liner in order to add a little "umph". Now I just use black liner haha.

Summer fun!

Despite puking out literally everything I swallow, there was no putting a stop to Sunday morning's wakeboarding session.

Like Jo and Chikz say, I finally got my fix!

Now I need to visualize how to do a baby jump. It's been told to be my homework!

Monday blues once again and now back to pukey pukey mode. I must say, the sleep from 4pm to 8am helped a bit on my road to recovery.

Girly prints

Soft, abstract prints seem to be dominating the world lately. But then, when have they ever left us? After the Zimmerman collection that I literally drooled all over my computer monitor, other pretty prints have caught my attention!

Absolutely adore the back slit of this Zara number!

Mr. Kate

Life is ironic sometimes. I was telling my lunch buddy today how caffeine rarely affects my sleep pattern. 12 hours later the flat white has ended in a rather sleepless night, which in turn led to me looking up Mr. Kate, which I have bookmarked a few days ago.

Ahh their Days of Ore jewelry lookbook is so yummy.

I adore the quirkiness and whimsy of the collection and how it's girly yet not too girly. Does anyone follow where I'm going at? And being a person who loves accessories that are loud and clear, Mr. Kate has hit a home run in my world. Hmmmm. My head is running a little wild at the moment.

Invite.L

This was one of my rare impulse purchases but I bought this Magazine Editorial Notebook by Invite.L the moment I laid my eyes on it! Can't wait till i receive it in a couple weeks and see what good I can make out of it!

And icing on top of the cake, free worldwide shipping! Thanks Invite.L!!

I blame this impromptus buy on my current read..... We're talking about snap judgments now right? ;)

Doll face

I'm not usually big on models but recently Ju Xiao Wen (雎晓雯) has caught my attention. I first knew about her via her interview with Electric Sekki and the Lane Crawford A/W 2011 campaign. Since then I have been seeing her on runways during the recent fashion weeks.

Here's her interview with Electric Sekki and you can see the rest here.
