Cosmetics : Christian Dior Shimmer Powder Rose Diamond

I finally got Dior's shimmer powder! I heard one of my favourite makeup artists call it an perfect material for blushing and highlighting and that she always uses it. They have 2 colors called Rose Diamond ( which I bought this time) and Amber Diamond. I asked a sales girl which one goes good to me telling that I often use MAC bronzer on my face, and she proposed that Rose Diamond should be better because it can be both of blushing in pinky pink and highlighting in baby pink - crystal white. Amber Diamond is great as well but it's only for highlighting I guess (and i already have orange - gold blush so :D ) And I used it on a 20 national ceremony and realized it was totally INCREDIBLE <3 It was a little bit expensive, but it was worth it !

Hello :D

I've just finished exams and I'm a little bit relaxed now :) Soon I'm gonna make my own research at school. And in the middle of March I finish a year term 2013 finally and then go for a month off. So exited to go to Italy from now :DD

Anyways, one of my friends told me a song, saying that I would like it, which caught my mind so bad ! So chilling, thanks so much <3

Styling Tutorial : Floral Print Dress

Hi, everyone :) I guess you girls already have some floral print dresses in your wardrobes. Maybe some of you think flower print stuff is for spring and summer, and maybe others think it's difficult to coordinate other jackets or winter footwear. But you can wear it if you change a little bit of the way you coordinate your style.

Ok, all you must have is

・Floral print dress

・Black leather jacket

・Black beret or hat (anything like pork pie hat) 

・Small chain bag

・Big gold earrings

・Booties / Short boots

・Dark toned lipstick

This is my suggestion.

By Ganni

By Topshop

short boots by Zara, earrings and hat by Topshop, bag by Chanel and lipstick "Rouge Volupte Shine" by Yves Saint Laurent Cosmetics.

 You can also wear black mesh tights. It will be more grunge style inspired by 90'. If you want it totally grunge, you can wear gold necklace or gold watch, but don't do it too much. Just consider the total balance :)

I wish you enjoyed,

Thank you guys :*

Music : Last of The Summer Wine

This is one of my favourites from Palma Violets. It's so lovely. And the sounds reminds me of The Velvet Underground... Very nostalgic feeling, back to 60s !

But love isn't easy

That's just the way it goes

Well, I'm loving the high road

I'll never ride alone again

I'm searching for something

Something I love

We'll be searching going right over we go

I'm going again

Film : Anna Karenina (2012)

"  I was eighteen when I got married, but it was not love. "

I saw this film in airplane the way back home from London... twice ! It really shoot my mind. It was so beautiful. The original novel was written by Russian author Lev Tolstoy. The theme is about love, but FORBIDDEN one. Anna's husband, Karenin, is a senior statesman but she met a young handsome man, Vronsky, in Moscow. They fell in love with each others and...

YES I absolutely love their dresses. They won for best costume design at 85th Academy Awards ! My favourite is Kitty's white dress <3 And I also LOVE its music. It really matches this saddest story about their bittersweet love. So beautiful. Theatrical stage sets seen in lots of parts were nice as well.

And when I saw this with one of my friends, we were like...

" Bronskyyyyy !!!!!! "

Ahaha, Bronsky was so stunning in this film... starring Aaron Jonson :) His sweet blue eyes almost killed us !

And here is my favourte quotes from some films of Anna Karenina.

Anna : I feel pain. I feel tears.
Vronsky : Why?
Anna : Because I'm so happy. Not to think, only to live, only to feel.

・

Vronsky : I love you.
Anna : Why?
Vronsky : You can't ask Why about love.

・

Vronsky : I'll never forgive myself for your unhappiness.

Wishlist : Fuji Intax mini

Do you like to take pictures ? For me, YES !!! I have Canon, Nikon, Sony... and my iPhone 5 but this intax mini camera has so much different taste on taking pics. Colours, materials, its looking... Just so pretty ! And though it's not as expensive as Polaroid it looks alike. But this is smaller, and just cheaper.

Yes, I need it now.
