Picture 019

these lenses are just like waicons

and even as comfortable.

i love how these show up on my medium colored brown eyes.

i have to say my eyes are not very light but light enough

that they are very luminecent.

the magic tops look so light

i can hardly believe it!

sorry about the  “just woke up,have not combed hair”  pictures

no makeup no nothing….

oh okay i did Picasa a little- to take out a zit or two.

two actually.. :)

i am still looking for the perfect grey or brown lens

any ideas??

 

Internet Shopping is a Beautiful Curse! May 11, 2009

i am completely obsessed with internet shopping as of now…

it’s completely taking over malling for a lot of people.

Etsy.com

Asos.com

americanapparel.net

Lightinthebox.com

dealextreme.com

lots of places even offer free shipping.

in the past month i ordered contact lenses, shoes, dresses

and it took me less than those usual 3-5 hours at the stores.

no swollen feet, and great great internet discounts!

photowhoring again, with my overly picasa’d

sharpened pic.

i don’t usually fix my pictures

but i was trying to do dramatic.

new pics spring 2009 072

this was my first attemp at nailart with the

konad nailart kits

it’s very laughable..hehehe

it isn’t very easy!

but it looks real cute.

the set on ebay for a fauxnad set cost me

$8.00

for 10 plates with stamp and scraper

plus the price of shipping

the special polishes are what really set

you back at $6.00 each

so i only got a black and white polish.

but considering the real set sells plates for

$6.00 or so each

i spent nothing!!!

i went for a pedicure yesterday and the guy

at

the front of the salon saw my nails and asked who did it.

when i told him it was me-he and the other workers

told me not to ever do it again or they would lose business!

haha not with me doing it.

Smelling SWEET TARTS May 8, 2009

someone said i smelled like a sweet-tart…

well i don’t necessarily think so.

but i do love to smell fresh and sweet…

just not tarty.

i doubt my fiance likes me to smell like a baby either

but here are a run down of my most fave colognes

and perfumes.

PARA MI BEBE ,PMB -***everyday

this cologne is a classic spanish baby cologne

which gets sprinkled in your hair

it’s so fresh,clean and soft without being powdery.

it’s lovely fragrance just mixes with your own

and doesn’t go away.

it’s a everyday scent i carry with me all the time

in a seperate atomizer of course.

it’s fondly called PMB or in english-”for my baby”baby_003

Philosophy Pure Grace-***casual

someone said i smelled like a summer breeze with this on

and so i could not resist making it my

signature scent.

i wear this on the warmer days or when i want to

smell young and breezy

it’s another classic scent that is refreshing

and lovely, like soap and water…

its a great pick me up scent.

Issey Miyaki  L’Eau de Issey-***dressy

i remember my Dad brought this home for me

from Hongkong- and i would bathe in it

practically.

it was gone within a week.

it was my first real womanly cologne without really being womanly.

this cologne makes me feel very beautiful  and mysterious

and it definitely gets noticed.

as i walked through a corridor at work one day

i hear someone say…

” ooh i can smell Roz…Roz is here!!!”

(Roz is a shortened version of my real name that i really do not like, hehe)

it’s very woodsy, and musky and floral

without being garish and flowery.

it’s also very oriental so, it takes me back to my roots.

it’s my favorite all time go-to perfume all year round.

the bottle is also unmistakable ISSEY MIYAKI.

some other faves are:

moschino cheap and chic love love

moschino couture

and armani code for women.

all in all i don’t stray far away from these scents,

although i do have others these are my most favorite ones.

what does everyone else think?

do you like the smell of suntan?

does it make you feel beachy?

do you like the smell of sweet tarts or gummybears?

or do you like being more womanly?

for me

i guess it depends on my mood really.

i’m such a homie…

Picture 013my Russian mama-sita Valentina just being silly at work

after our many shopping trips to walmart for everything and nothing.

she bought everything, i bought nothing…just a milk bath

with loads of bubbles from Calgon.

I am loving the rainy season, it remind me of the Philippines-

when it’s nice and cool- the sun gives me hives!
