TWO WEEKS IN THE LIFE | 6 JUN - 19 JUN

Pacific Rim

It is not my first time to watch Pacific Rim but I have no idea why it popped up in my head and I watch it again. I am completely obsessed with it again. I am a girl who loves to watch Sci-Fic movies a lot. This movie is great at talking about how all the races worked together to fight with monsters, relationships between family and friends, trust and faith in each other. I have to talk about Chuck and Max the bulldog! Dog and soldier always get me haha.

Workwear

 

I struggled quite a bit in deciding what to wear for my new job role because I feel the best in comfortable tops, shorts and sneakers. I did quite a bit of research online and observe what people wear to work but I could not really figure out what I want. So I went on a little shopping trip to malls and I figured it out! Originally I wanted to switch between trousers and dresses but then I found that dress with a blazer is not really my thing so I went with a silm fitted pair of trousers. Sadly, culottes is not allowed at work because it turned out better than I thought so I may get it for off work.

New Things

I have been trying a lot of new things like mascara, nail polish, eyeshadow, lip products and even dried fruit water! When I started to change some of my routine especially I am going to change to new work position, it makes me feel scared (kind of good scared), excited and fresh and I took it as a good feeling.

Hope next week is coming great!

Love,
Sonia

Jenn Ne Sais Quoi

It is really excited that Jenn collaborated with ColourPop since her style is very versatile.

The eyeshadow quad is called "Jenn Ne Sais Quoi" which she played with a French phrase "I don't know what" and then each eyeshadow is named with first 4 French number Un, Deux, Trois and Quatre. I love the whole theme of playing with languages because there is too much naming with people's name, pet's name or lyrics. This kind of naming is much more fun!

According to the official website,

Un: A soft champagne sprinkled with silver multidimensional glitter in a Metallic Finish

Deux: A mid tone warm brown in a Satin finish

Trois: A brownish brick red in a Satin finish

Quatre: A blackened brown in a Matte finish

As usual, the eyeshadow is creamy and pigmented but still I think it is the best to apply with fingers.

Colour wise, "Trois" caught my eyes the most since I really like red colour. The look that I created above is very similar to the one I created with Cranberry from M.A.C. But unlike Cranberry, Trois seems to be more red red and I found it easier to work with in a subtle look. Overall, it is very easy to create a natural look (Un as a nice overall eyelid colour: Deux as a crease contour colour; Quatra as a soft deep brown eyeliner) while you can also create a playful look like I do in the above pictures.

Love,

Sonia

Getting Pumped

Update for another week fitness! This week, I mainly went to fitness on my own since my schedule could not match with my personal trainer's. But I do enjoy doing it too! One of the biggest changes that I noticed is that I was not as tired as before when I was working especially I worked 6 days this week. Before, I would be tired like hell but this week, I was also tired but I managed to do fitness! This made me want to keep this routine more and more.

New Hair

I cannot believe it has been one year since my graduation trip. Last year today I was in Istanbul with jet black hair. I swear I would not dye my hair black again because there is too many follow ups. Today, I went to salon to get my hair done. Originally, I wanted to get lighter hair for summery look. But then I thought of trying something new - matte hair colour. I was not sure how it will turn out and it turned out nice. It is not exactly black but kind of darker brown matte colour. Also, getting a hair cut is also my priority because my hair is too heavy for summer and it grew very messy because the last hair dresser did not really do his work seriously. This time, I got my hair colour and hair cut fixed!

Love,

Sonia
