FriendlyFashion.my is Closing Down

Hey guys,
not sure if you guys have read my blog entry regarding FriendlyFashion.my one year ago,
it's an amazing website in which we're able to swap or sell our preloved items to the other members,
or make new friends with the members. It's a fun and exciting site,
we get to share our thoughts, beauty and fashion tips etc. 

However, I've received an email yesterday from FriendlyFashion.my.

"The Friendlyfashion will officially be close from 1st of July"

What a big shock of the day!
At first I thought it was some sort of prank, but it is kinda impossible for the official FF crew
to send us a prank us right? And then I started to scroll through the FF forum and realized it's real (T_T)
I've been their fans for almost a year, and I spend most of my free time
scrolling through the catalogues and reading the forum.

It's really sad, but I guess we just can't change the fact that FF is closing right?

Anyway, thanks FF crew for putting in so much effort and hard work in order to make this site a fun fashion community in Malaysia. 
Hopefully they will launch something even awesome-r projects in the future!

Bangs or No Bangs!

Hello readers, right after the dip dyed or ombre hair trend, bangs aka fringe is the hottest hair trend!
Are you fed up with your old hairstyle and feel like making some changes?
Bangs and fringes would be a perfect choice for you.
You might not notice this, but many celebrities are trying to rock their hairstyle by cutting fringe recently.

Sneak Peek at Demi Lovato's new hairstyle :)
Demi Lovato looking so young and pretty with her new fringe!!

Zoey Deschanel, the new girl. I really love her hairstyle. So feminine and pretty.

Besides that, speaking of bangs, Taylor Swift rocks her fringe really well!
She looks much prettier and stunning with her bangs.

Personally, I really love straight across bangs.
Blunt bangs make girls look so glamourous and beautiful instantly :)

In order to choose bangs and fringe which looks good on you,
we have to consider about two key points:
1. Face Shape
2. Type of hair


Which bangs flatter your face shape most?

Round Face: Long, side-swept bangs
Square Face: Full, blunt bangs
 Oval-faced: Any bangs
Heart shaped: Long bangs
Deciding hair bangs based on the face shape might not be accurate enough. Hair type is a vital factor as well, everyone has different hair type and some people might not able to get their ideal bangs or fringe. It's always better to go for a good and trusted saloon, ask them for recommendation and they will tell you which bangs suit you.  Staring at Zoey Deschanel's photo makes me feel like getting bangs as well. haha. 
Yea, that's all for today.

Pink Dip Dyed!

Spotted any difference??



NO! NOT MY PIMPLES!

One more chance.

Oh yeah, you're right babe! I've finally got my pink dip dyed done.
You've no idea how happy I am.
I was so sick yesterday and was extremely sad and frustrated, not because I am afraid that I couldn't 
finish my assignment on time, instead, I was so worried that I couldn't make it to the hair appointment.
Therefore I actually drank a bottle of medicine to make sure that I'm alright!
Bad example! (please don't ever learn this at home!)

Woke up this morning and realized that I'm completely healed.
Wuhoo! dressed up and started my journey to Hair Now Beauty Centre @ Cheras.


Before I decided to have my hair dip dyed, I was really in dilemma,
I have never done something like this to my hair before. I really love dip dyed, they are so pretty and trendy but I didnt really have much courage to do it. What if people don't like my hair colour? 
But at the end, I've made up my mind, "I should do this!"
I'm still young and I should do things that I like!! YOLO! Some more it looks fun and awesome!!
 If I don't do this now, I'm pretty sure that I'm gonna regret when I turned into an old grandma.

Okay I went to have my cut and wash session, pink dip dyed and also hair treatment!!
This is my awesome hair stylist, Florence and her pretty daughter aka blogger Angeline.

source: http://angelineng92.blogspot.com

They look so sweet right? hahah they treated each other like BFF than mother & daughter.

And hey, did I mention that Florence has more than 20 years of experience??
She has graduated at Kimarie Salons and Academy at Singapore and even became a lecturer at the 
academy for a year. Then, she continued pursued her hairstyling and beauty skills in London,
Vidal Sassoon Academy, Toni & Guys academy and Morris Academy of Hair Design and received
a lot of professional certificates.
So incredible right? 

Hair Now Beauty Centre uses L'oreal Professionnel products!!!!
And the best part is they offer really affordable and great prices. Who can resist to have awesome amazing hair with such low prices??

Currently they offer 6 colors for dip dyed, which is green, pink, ash, purple, red and blue.
I chose pink!

I'm really impressed by Florence professional skills.
She has some sort of magic hair i guess! haha! And best of all, not like other hair stylists, Florence is extremely friendly and lovely. She has given me a lot of hair advices as well.
Oh! For those who are planning to get a dip dyed, you better get a hair treatment done as well!
This is to minimize your hair damages! hehe!

So that's all for today's post! I'm a happy girl now! *blushed*
Looking forward to have more hair done at Hair Now Beauty Centre.

Top 5 Fashion No-Nos!!

Suddenly I have an itch to blog. hehehe.
Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri for my lovely muslim readers and happy holiday to my non-muslim readers!
Hohoho. Good for me, I have one week holiday break and I'm currently at my hometown /wahaha
It's great to be at home. 


Just bought this mask hours ago and gonna apply it later after a long stressful hectic work day. 
I lied, and in fact this is just an excuse. Haha I just tipu kerja (slacking). When the other staffs were busy doing their works, I was sitting right in front of computer surfing the net. Oopsy I wasn't supposed to tell other. Hmm,  let's keep this secret between us.. Shhh!! Don't tell my boss! /XD

Oh hey, babes, today's post is mainly about Fashion No-Nos!!
Fashion is a form of expression and it will actually reflect to other people of who you are.
 And of course, unlike what we learned in Physics, e=mc^2, there should be no rules to limit fashion.
But there's some No-Nos that we have to know in order to cause fashion disaster.
 I'm not saying that I'm fashionista or what, because obviously I AM NOT!
But I've seen so many people making these mistakes and I think I should share this out
so that more people would be aware and reduce the chances of making these mistakes.

Top 5 Fashion No-Nos!!
1. Wear shades or sunnies in indoor area. That is way so not cool!!



2. Match sandals with socks.


Match Birkenstock with stockings. Are you kidding me?!

3. Wear legging as pants.
When you wanna wear a legging as pants, please make that you are wearing a really long top or dress.


Olivia Wilde wearing leggings as pants, and this actually looks so wrong!!
So please don't do this.

4. Wear fishnet stockings.
Please don't wear this out unless you're a pole dancer, prostiture, b*tch or sl*t as well.


5. Expose too much by wearing low cut top and short bottom at the same time.
It is not sexy and classy at all. I was supposed to insert a photo as well but when I googled it, the result actually shows inappropriate photos and I really don't feel like inserting this kind of photo in my blog
which really destroy my blog layout :x

 Alright, so these are basically the top five fashion no-nos.
Please bear this in mind so that you will not ended up embarrassing yourself in the public.
That's all for today's post. Hope the content is useful and applicable/XD
Okay, time for applying face mask!! Skin condition getting worse recently.

Love mix and match?

Hello Fashion lovers! /hihi
I was chatting with my hometown besties using Facebook yesterday and we started to talk
about our ambitions and studies so on.

Randomly, my friend SY asked me what’s my ideal ambition /sweat
Umm here’s the thing, whenever people asked me the same question, I would definitely answer them
that I don’t have an exact interest towards anything.
I lied. The truth is I was way too shy to tell them /blush 

Recently, I’ve been started to watch “Jane by Design”and kinda addicted to this television drama, I’m so jealous of her. She’s around my age but already has an awesome fashionable job and good school life as well. Can play with fashion and earn money at the same time.
It’s like every girl’s dream come true!
Oh not to mention she looks so sophisticated and chic all the time!!

I am so envious of these people who have their interests as jobs! 
And this television series actually makes me even think more about my ambition.

OKAY TIME TO BE HONEST!

er.....umm....actually.....my....
My dream career is to become a full-time blogger/ make up artist or even fashion stylist.
Since I was young, I started to style my barbie doll (fashion stylist wannabe).
And now, I love to style ‘the real human' by mixing and matching their items in the wardrobe and makes people beautiful and gain confidence #dreambig /blush

In my future (20 years? or 30 years+), I would want a room-sized wardrobe for myself!!

And in the meanwhile of chasing my dream,
I saw someone talked about Polyvore while browsing Friendly Fashion website.
I was really curious (almost kills a cat /XD ), hahaha silly me,
then I googled it and I was seriously impressed by the site and how it works.



Life like this

Is this polyvore collage pretty? guess what? I’m the one who match the outfit 
I know I’m so talented right? /wahaha
Nah I was just kidding, peeps! In fact I found this website which is incredibly awesome and convenient, we can make these type of collage in few minutes time.
Think you can do better than mine? *challenge accepted*
go and make your own polyvore collage and show me what you got /hmm
You can check it out at www.polyvore.com
Hope you guys will love it!! 

Alright, that’s all for today’s post, my dear readers.
Hopefully you enjoy reading this.

Moustache Tee

Look what I’m wearing here

\/



I’m wearing a mustache tee. Oh yeah! *shake my ass*
As what I’ve mentioned in my earlier post on mustache trend, I’m really obsessed of mustache tee
but I couldn’t find it anywhere.

























So a few days ago, my lil sister Samantha was browsing the Facebook and coincidently she
spotted an online boutique selling mustache tee on the timeline.
She told me and I was really excited and started looking at the photo catalogue.

Not only the purple mustache tee that I’m wearing, the mustache tee comes in 4 other colors as well.


Ain’t these tee shirts look so adorable??
Not only that, it’s not purely for females, but also males as well.
And the best part, each tee only costs 28 bucks!!!

Ombre Nails tutorials

Hello hello my beautiful readers, do you all love colors?
Like me, I personally love ombre or dip-dyed hairstyle a lot and yet I have got no courage to get it because it’s way too bold. 

source: http://stepheezybeezy.tumblr.com/post/3817033295/ombre-hair-looks-like-so-much-fun

This hairstyle just looks so fun and young!!
But honestly, not everyone can really manage to handle this hairstyle. 
I mean if you were a model or what, it was okay, but if you’re just a super ordinary people, probably you would end up looking like a mess.

It’s way to easy to go wrong with the ombre or dip dyed hair!

Take for an example:
source: http://mystylebell.com/2011/05/24/what-is-ombre-hair-color/

This looks good on Jessica Biel. But this kind of color could be little bit tricky.
To get these awesome ombre hair, please do go for a higher quality hair saloon for more professional services and consultation.

Don’t believe me? Alright you might be ending up looking like this:

source: http://stylerefine.com/2011/05/13/summer-hairdos/

Alright Drew Barrymore looks like she has not been dying her hair for quite awhile with the black roots and her hair looks so unhealthy and frizzy. 

source: iamrochelle.com

That’s the worst ombre hair I’ve even seen!!
There was once I spotted a Korean student in my campus who really rocks her ombre hair. 
I was like super envious and had the enthusiasm to get this hairstyle as well,
but there’s a fact that I couldn’t deny, I just cannot manage to handle this hairstyle.
Of course there are people out there who look really good with their ombre hairstyle. 
But seriously, it’s really rare, like 1 out of every 10 person?!

Do you get what I’m trying to say here? 
It’s simply way too tough for most of us to rock this kinda ombre/dip dyed hairstyle.
But here’s the thing, I’m really into this ombre thingy although I knew that it’s not really for me.
But what can I do? go for this even it doesn’t suit me?
Definitely a big no-no! 
Why would I even try to force myself to fit in this ombre hairstyle even though it doesn’t suit me!

Instead, why not I just apply the ombre trend on my nails??
In that way, I’ll not be able to go wrong easily and always keep up with the trend. 
I’m so brilliant hahahhaha 
source: worldpressgirl.info

To be honest, and obviously for those who have been reading my previous blog posts knew that I’m really not good at nail arts. The biggest reason for it is due to I am really extremely impatient and not artsy as well. I know it would be really easy for me to just get the ombre nails done at the nail saloons, it would save up a lot of time and extremely convenient. But there’ll be no satisfaction from doing these ombre nails. Furthermore it’s usually not cheap, a normal saloon might charge us approximately 40 bucks just for the fingers, but it doesn’t stay long. We might just scrape off the nail polish and might need to go back to the saloon every week for touch up or to do a new one. It’s really not worth it especially for a student who has limited allowance.

Alright, so I’ll be doing a ombre nail art tutorial.
Don’t worry, it’s really easy to make your own ombre nail art! Just follow these simple steps on my nail tutorial video and hopefully you guys really love it as I really put in a lot of efforts and courage. 
This is the first tutorial video that I made. Just enjoy it. 


It’s purely just for fun and sharing. And duh I’m not professional, so please forgive my imperfection.
For those who don’t appreciate my video, you can just leave it there without watching it.

So, yeah, have fun peeps!

Mustache Trend!

I’ve no idea why but the mustache trend seems to be really ‘contagious' and it’s really spreading fast.
I spotted 'mustache' everywhere, such as


Since the ancient times, people have always think that mustaches are only for boy or man.

It’s a boy thing. Or maybe for?

Man

It’s on wallet, headband, cap, earings, rings, necklace........



Mr.cupcake as well!


I was really curious about the trend and I googled it.
So far I’ve got a few results from my findings. 



#Hearsay 1



Some people believe the fingerstache found its way into our youth culture through a popular reality show, Keeping Up With the Kardashians. When the Kardashian sisters drew mustaches on their fingers, they helped raise this comical trend to its current hot spot

#Hearsay 2

"Long ago, my friend told me about a kid on Youtube who was really funny. You see, that kid was obsessed with mustaches Then, all of a sudden! kids became obsessed with mustaches. Taking pictures with them, growing them, and even wearing clothing with mustaches on them. In my theory, I think the kid from youtube got it started, but now it's become a "cool kid" thing to do. So now every teen who calls themself as a hipster/cool kid does the mustache pose! "

I don’t know whether are they true or not since
they are just rumors so it’s just up to you whether to believe it or not. 

It doesn’t matter.

I’ve googled quite a lot of people with ‘mustache’ and

from my point of view,

I think that the best fashionable ‘mustache’ icon goes to
