I am a Zipia Addict.


These are just some of the items I am thinking of getting for the spring/summer.
I honestly don't shop from there all the time, maybe 1-2 times a year along with
many other people to cover up the minimum spending of $300-500.

If I had a full time job, I don't know what would happen honestly XD

I think I started to shop online more often in 2010?
It was probably because of my sudden addiction to eBay, that led me to other things >>
Although, now I try not to buy clothes online because it can be difficult to see the size
and quality of the garment. I think my worst online shopping experience was from
Forever21 and eBay, in terms of buying clothing and accessories. It can be a bit tricky,
but I think I've learned my lesson :p

I believe that shopping in person will save me more money, in the long run.
Unfortunately, I can't quite let go of Zipia just yet, just because I love their styles
and most of their items are made in South Korea. I can easily get pants that fit me
as well, because I am quite petite. Plus, I don't like shopping in person, because I
can be so indecisive... I can literally stay in the store deciding if I should get one item
of clothing for an hour or more. That is why I like to shop alone lol :p

Crow Perfume review

I'm not someone who wears perfume often, but I stumbled across Crow Perfume through Irene from
YouTube (aka Pinkie Charm). I will never be able to finish a whole bottle of perfume, so I decided
to get samples. I picked up No.1, 2, 3, and 4 because they seemed like scents I would like to wear.

Crow Perfumes are water based and does not contain any alcohol, parabens, or phthalates.
The full size bottles cost $48 containing about 50ml of the perfume.

You can order sample sets of 3 or 6. I ordered 3, but they kindly gave me 4!
My favourites are No.1 and 4 :)

No.1 lasts almost all day on me, leaving a soft scent of vanilla and jasmine :)
No.4 reminds me of Elizabeth Arden's Green Tea perfume, but with a touch of citrus.
This scent doesn't last as long on me as No.1... maybe for a few hours :(

and the best part? (for me anyway :p), I like to add No.4 on top of No.1 at the end of
the day to freshen up the scent. It also becomes a new scent on me that I love! <3

No.2 is a lovely scent, where the rose and jasmine really blends well together :)
You can definitely smell the hint of peach, although it's pretty subtle.
This scent is elegant and I can see women wearing this to work on a daily basis.

No.3 is unique and I'm sorry, but I don't know how to describe this scent! -.-
but I can definitely smell the 'ozone', it's a bit earthy but still floral.

If you're looking for something that is water based, light, and for everyday, I would
definitely suggest looking into these lovely scents! Be sure to get the samples before
buying the full size bottle(s) though :p

Aside from the lovely scents, they come in beautiful packaging :)

Golden Spectacle


I recently bought a few items with a friend from Zipia.net :)
I'm wearing the skirt and starfish earrings :D
I also bought a yellow cardigan, but that will make its appearance some other day :)

I paired it with a faux snake skin belt because the skirt was a bit too big for me ><
I think it goes well with the belt :) and I am loving the texture!
I'm selling the earrings on the right... just thought I would post a photo of them because
they look beautiful on their own :) They're a bit big in size, about 2.5cm wide.

Base: Sally Hansen Green Tea & Olive base coat
Colour: Nubar "Mod Agua"(means 'water' in Spanish)
Design: Konad image plate M84
Glitter: CM diamond glitter
Top: Konad top coat

I decided to do a simple design this week, I wasn't really inspired by anything.
I have a nice idea for next week's design though :D

I just came home from a family dinner. It was to celebrate my aunt's birthday
and Chinese New Year's at the same time. One of my cousin's gave me this
adorable 'red pocket', with the little ears peeking up from the envelope XD

I've been addicted to this song recently :)
