After 5 days of working, I wanted to stay at home and rest in the weekend.
But this week, I went to House of VANS with Chantelle.
Of course I have to wear my favourite VANS slip on to there!
Did not expect too much because I just want to hang out with friend only.
It has got a little concert area, places for skating, art and street market.
I am interested in street market the most but it was really sunny outside:( Although the street market was not really big, the products there are more unique than those I went before and I am really impressed! We were chilling around and taking pictures around with a drink.
I do wish that Hong Kong can have more event like this because it would be really nice to chill there instead of always going to shopping mall and coffee shop!
Never owned any dark lipstick before because I am more of a bold and bright lipstick girl. Diva Antics is my first one! My friend Chantelle (the lovely girl in the pic above <3) wanted a dark red lipstick so we went to MAC store to check some out. We are both wearing Diva Antics in the picture. According to MAC official website, it is an intense reddish burgundy.
I always remember Diva but MAC has came out a amplified version of it called Diva Antics in the M∙A∙Cnificent Me collections.
So it would be more moisturized than the original one which is a matte finish.
When autumn comes, it seems like everyone started to wear dark lipstick but this is not my case.
I have no intention to buy the lipstick at the begining but after I tried it on my lips...why not? haha
I think this colour is good for the days when you want a more mysterious, seductive, vampy look!
Also when you are sick of wearing a sharp red lipstick for a night out, dark red is also an option. But for me, I would also wear in day time. Just do not be afraid of the colour!
A classy colour would not run out of style in any season in my opinion.
Two weeks ago, I catched the bargain - Buy 3 for 2 on feeluniques.com for Tanya's products.
Tanya's makeup tutorials have always been my favourite ones because she has got brown eyes and her makeup is always on point:) I used MAC brush 217 so much because of her haha!
After I saw her demonstration on Galaxy Eye Palette on Vessel, I wanted her products so much because the price is really reasonable and the combination of colours are very pretty.
I purchased Galaxy Eye Palette, Fairytale Eye Palette and Date Night Lashes.
Originally, I also wanted Hollywood Eye Palette and Perfect Brows but they are sold out:(
Galaxy Eye Palette
Fairytale Eye Shadow
Date Night Lashes
I always like cool, sleek and chic packages. But when I open the box, I have to say it is very cute!
And it suits Tanya's personality very much:)
The pigmentation of these eyeshadows is good regarding the price is really cheap.
Tanya named each eyeshadow.
Galaxy Eye Palette: snowflake, moonlight, stormy sky, starry night
Can you imagine a Hollywood actress can talk to you about life without makeup on YouTube?
She is the one - Teresa Palmer.
I always always say she is my inspiration <3
I knew Teresa from I Am Number Four (Who does not like a strong, powerful and cool girl like her in the movie? haha) and Warm Bodies which is my all time favourite movie of her and Nicholas Hoult's.
But Teresa is not merely an actress, she is more than that.
Of course I have to mention her husband Mark Webber too!
Mark's movie The Ever After has got such an intense emotion and it offers a great insight into the other side of human life. And I am so looking forward to see his upcoming project!
I wish I could meet and talk with Teresa and Mark once in my life!
Speaking of Teresa, I absolutely love all her Tez Talks.
It always comes around when I have to refresh my mind.
I always go back to different Tez Talks just to remind myself how should I response to different situation.
Back then, I had an idea that I want to response to each of her videos because it really helps me a lot in growing my soul.
I tweeted her, left comment on her video or even sent email once to Your Zen Life.
With such a busy schedule of her, Teresa is sweet enough to retweet or favourite some of my tweets:)
Now, I have a blog so I can finally response in depth!
Recently, Teresa posted a video about how to keep in balance.
In the video, she showed a list with different categories that she has to focus and keep her life in balance.
So I wrote my list for the past two weeks as it would be my last two weeks before starting to work.
- Soul:
Meditation with Teresa Palmer (one of my favourite videos of her!)
Write Gratitude Diary with manifesting
Read Books
Loving, caring and positive vibes
- Body:
Drink more water
Tune my sleeping timetable back to normal
- Me:
Create some ME-time by logging out to social media for a few hours
Listen to myself, deal with each feeling and communicate more
- Create:
Write more blog posts
Be in an environment that I love
| Result |
In order to keep myself following the list, I have something where I can often see it.
For example, I keep my gratitude diary, water bottle, book on my desk so I do not forget about it.
Every time I feel wrong, I look at the list immediately and find if there is anything I missed.
I have done everything on the list but not for tuning my sleeping schedule:(
Still, I cannot sleep well for every another day.
But I think the situation is going to be better as I will start working tomorrow and I know I will be tired and am able to fall asleep so easily every night!
Thank you Teresa for giving me inspiration all the time.
After these two weeks, I have found myself in a more calm and peaceful mode.
As I will start working, it is time to write a new list tonight!
All the love to Teresa, Mark and Bodhi:)
I always love to write and receive postcards.
This summer, me and my friends went to different places for graduation trip so we posted postcards to each other.
This time, postcards came from Europe to Asia-Pacific.
Nordic Area: Denmark, Sweden, Iceland
Europe: Spain, Switzerland, Netherlands, Greece
Europe: Turkey
Asia: Tibet, Japan, Taiwan
Asia-Pacific: Australia
Total 15 postcards!!!!
Probably the highest numbers of postcards which I received in only one season.
Thank you to all my friends:)
