Also cross posted to gal_style ~  Hello lovelies~  I've decided to write up a quick review of my experience ordering the MA*RS gold chain leopard bag from Makiko Online Shop a couple weeks back ( inspired by this post, here).

It's that time of year, peeps.  Summer's approaching and there's nothin' better than icy cold watermelon, flip flps and you guessed it, those lovely boho waves that only the ocean, the sun and the hot sand on your back can create.  Not lucky enough to be blessed living in Hawaii?  No worries!  I've scoured the seven seas to find the best products ( Read more... )

A request initially made by 58468_0 , here's to presenting my self-sufficient guide to 120% perfect skin care.  If there's one thing I can't stand more than damaged hair, it's a pimply, flaky face.  This flatters no one.  At all.  & while no one's technically "perfect," it's with the help of various products, 3-hour shower sessions & an extremely patient ( Read more... )

Oh noes.  Or something like that.

I haven't even taken any photos.  At all.  Give for the below (part of the living room) & one ( Read more... )

Regardless of how many times we've heard the same songs over and over again, SPEED's "new" album is still a great buy (see : here).  The vocals are positively polished, the arrangements just dollied up enough to give the songs new life and the girls' new look (see : Hitoe's teeth lolz) fab.  Unlike other self covers, the tracks still maintain all ( Read more... )

Few things are worse than looking like a baggy eyed zombie.  Unfortunately, due to a stressful on the go lifestyle, work drama and a general lack of sleep, I’ve been cursed with saggy, highly noticeable dark bags under and around both my eyes.  Like, goth dark ( Read more... )

If there's one thing I love me some hardcore, it's being tan.  Unfortunately for me, five hours baking in the sun leaves me no less pale than when I started.  Frustrating?  Yes.  Smart?  No.  Self tanners can be absolutely tricky: I'd rather throw myself in front of traffic than wind up looking like a splotchy tangerine.  Especially considering my ( Read more... )
