Revlon lipsticks haul & swatches

For some reason, I was in the mood to shop for lipsticks today. So right after I work, I went straight to the mall and bought myself 2 revlon lipsticks and lashblast mascara.



Revlon Matte 005 Strawberry Suede




It's very bright and matte. Time to look for a good lipgloss that will match this color!! :) any suggestions?






Super Lustrous Lipstick Pearl 634 Sparkling Cider






I know I probably would only use the strawberry suede once or twice in a year (haha) but I just thought I'd "invest" on a red lipstick. Kinda like one of those things you should have at least one of in your box. I got lazy to try on the mascara.. will post photos next time.. :)

Sunny Dragon


Follow my blog with bloglovin

(Belated) Happy Birthday Anna!

It was actually last Apr 24 but I just wanted to blog about it (haha!). So the original plan we had was a surprise party at Stanley Park for some cherry blossom lookbook picnic/photoshoot. But since Vancouver weather was being a jerk, it wasn't sunny enough to have an outdoor picnic so we decided to go somewhere else sunny... The Sunny Dragon Restaurant. Haha! It was still a surprise party which was good, and we still had a lil bit of "lookbook" theme minus the cherry blossoms. Then we went to Anna's house and baked home made brazos de mercedes. Yumm.

My outfit was easy as I just finished cleaning up my room that time and rushed to the restaurant. Thank God for Anna being late, I got there a few minutes after Anna came. :)

Forever 21 top, Banana Republic cardigan, washed out black jeans, high heels boots up to the knees (don't remember the brand)'

Anyway, here are just a few photos from the party:

The birthday girl, Anna

Calvin's accessory -- not sure where he got it, sorry

I have classes again this summer semester which started last week, on top of my full time job. I hope I start blogging, again (haha).

Granville island!


I'm so glad that sun is finally back here in Vancouver! Yay for spring. :) I went out for a bit today and the weather was so nice that I didn't have to wear a sweater. I hope this isn't just a teaser as Vancouver likes to play us like that. haha!

Anyway, me and my bf went to Granville island yesterday to take photos. Granville island is what I will consider one of the most artsy places here in Vancouver, well.. a very well known arts school (Emily Carr) is there so I guess that would make sense :) But weather wasn't as great as today's, considering we were there at around 6pm. It was very cold, but we still managed to take some shots. I also got new shoes 2 weeks ago which I haven't worn yet so I wanted to take photos with it.

I'm Here! :)

Hey everyone,

If you guys know me, I'm sure you'll say "another blog?!" HAHA. Yes, I have a million.. well maybe not a million but too many to not even remember how to log in to all of those, and obviously, none of them are up to date. Hopefully this will last me.. and will be my last blog account.

Anyway, I've been really interested in makeup, fashion and anything beauty related. So I will be blogging about that, including reviews, hauls, maybe do a lil makeup tutorial later on if you guys like. I will most definitely put up photos later but for now, please have a look at my very last blog. :) http://ellemangoes.wordpress.com/ but make sure to visit me at least every week :)


Feel free to follow my blog, ask questions, link me to your site, bookmark me, follow me on twitter, email... or whatever's out there. :) And of course, comments are always welcome. I bought a good camera, not too long ago, so let's put that to good use.

talk to ya later!

PS
I'm not sure if you're wondering but why would I switch from wordpress to blogger?
---I liked wordpress but I felt very limited to the themes as I cannot customize css (not that I know css) and layout designs that are available to choose from are very few. I felt very limited as I like to change the look of my blog. At least, if I'm able to change the layout, I feel like I'm "updating" my blog even if I'm not posting anything new. HA HA! K, that's just a lil sumfin sumfin for you.
