have to admit, my likes are more on the bland side when it comes to makeup. eyeliner and neutral palette of eyeshadows are pretty much the two products that sums up my daily routine... well, my one and only routine. still trying to get the hang of the perfect balance. so the offer to an exclusive make up trail by the professional dior team didn't come at a better time. never does for me actually. the summer croisette 2012 collection was inspired by the gradient colors of the mediterranean sea and palettes of a sunset. the tones of pastels, turquoise, nudes, and golden-bronze are perfectly captured into the range of products. the make up artist insisted on a va-va-voom makeover and had me experiment with the aurora eyeshadow palette, nude tan sun glow powder, tan eye gloss and the brown panama ultra gloss. took a minute to get used to the ariel do. but it felt barely there and comfortable. not to mention fought the heat pretty damn well. kudos to denise and the dior team for the fun workshop and my own set of from collection!

definitely the hottest talk of the past weeks must have been alexander wang hitting up in our very own hong kong cee-tee. all the commotion to celebrate the new alexander wang joyce store over at tst harbour city. the night sums up to squeezing in and out of the crazy pack, chatting up to what seems like the whole of hong kong ( literally everyone was there...), messing around with denise to get a good picture with wang, and wanting to clear the racks of amazing clothes clean from the store. would kill for this. was wearing the obvious option of my alexander wang draped dress. layered with a muscle tee underneath to tone it down and to make things more 'me'. if it wasn't already. love almost everything he creates. even his hair and smile is perfect. never enough of some alexander wang.

looking through april's taiwan trip album and reminiscing. here, a look built for sunny intervals with occasional drizzles. the type of weather that gets on my nerves the most but the drinks from ten ren teahouse makes up for any foul mood. may's trip ready and booked. can't wait to discover new places all over again.
