Audi Star Creation

I caught the Audi Star Creation show on Monday and I have to say I am rather impressed with the collections these young designers put up. Despite the fact that I had expected more from them, overall it was still rather commendable. It was the showcase of the collection of the 12 finalist of the Audi Star Creation competition and they were shortlisted out of the 355 submissions. The finalists are from Singapore, Malaysia, China, Korea,Japan, Mongolia, Thailand & Vietnam. After a tough fight, the winners were Haziq Putra from Singapore, Vu Ta Linh from Vietnam and Sun Yi Jin from China.

Chanel Takes Over

So, by now I'm pretty sure that most of you would have heard all the buzz that is going around about Chanel's Cruise collection in Singapore. Well, Karl Lagerfeld, Andre Leon Talley, Cara Delevingne all in one little red dot! How much hotter can Singapore get with these "Hot" people in town.
I guess most of you are like me, all excited about how this cruise collection that is inspired by Singapore looks like!
It wasn't exactly in your face Singapore-like, no Merlion tails, Sarong Kebaya or any slippers & shorts ensemble. You get the drift. According to Karl Lagerfeld, it was more of a vague impression of Singapore, nothing to explicit or designed to the detail.

Haul: Lush, Sephora, H&M, Topshop

Hey Lovelies, so I went on a shopping trip after my interview yesterday and it was awesome!(: Therefore I've decided to blog about my haul on the shopping trip and if this turns out well, I might be posting more haul posts on the blog! 
So, I headed to town yesterday and I managed to get quite a lot of shopping done! Been going on the Lush website quite a lot recently and looked at the beauty body lotion & of course its raving reviews. Therefore, I wanted to head to the store so badly to get some of these products! The Lush store in Singapore is located at Wisma Atria. So head over and immerse yourselves in some of the most beautiful scents.





So, while I was at Lush, I picked up several products. Which includes the Retread hair conditioner, Fair Trade Honey shampoo, Snow Fairy shower gel, T for Toes powder and the Twilight shower gel.


Lush: Snow Fairy Shower Gel & Twilight Shower Gel
The snow fairy shower gel smells really yummy! It smells like bubble gum and it really lingers on your skin. It really freshens you up and leaves your skin really happy after the shower. As for the Twilight shower gel, due to the presence of Lavender extracts, it soothes your skin and the scent calms you down. Therefore, I would highly recommend for you to use the Snow Fairy shower gel in the morning and the Twilight shower gel at night after a hard day's work!



Lush: Retread Hair Conditioner & Fair Trade Honey Shampoo
The Retread conditioner is a really strong conditioner according to the sales assistant, therefore it will restore a lot of moisture into your hair. I would suggest for you to use this conditioner only once a week  and use your regular conditioner on other days. The Fair Trade Honey shampoo aims to provide moisture to your hair and it also creates shine and volume, which is what I am really looking for in a Shampoo. I headed to lush wanting to get either the "Curly Wurly" or the "Big" shampoo instead because I wanted volume in my hair. So, the sales assistant was really helpful and recommended this instead. Hence, I'm going to give it a try.


Lush: T For Toes Foot Powder
The T For Toes foot powder aims to keep your feet feeling fresh and nice smelling with the presence of tea tree and lime oil



Following that, I headed over to Sephora to do even more beauty shopping. And I bagged more products that I intended to.
Sephora: Soap & Glory Sugar Crush Body Scrub (S$25)
I have read many raving reviews about the Soap & Glory products and many people have recommended the body scrub. Therefore while i was at Sephora, I decided to take a look at the Soap&Glory counter. This Sugar Crush body scrub smells really nice and I really like the consistency of the scrub. Therefore, I could not resist but to bag it!


Sephora: Urban Decay Naked Basics Palette (S$45) & Sephora eyeliner brush (S$21)
So, I have been wanting to get my hands on the Urban Decay Naked Basics Palette for the longest time. It seems to be so useful on a daily basis and I really like the packaging of it as it is really handy as well. I do not really enjoy eyeshadows that are really shiny, therefore the matte colors of the Basics palette is just right for me.While I was there, I also bought a Sephora eyeliner brush as I want to give a try at eyeliners. 


Palette Color: Venus, Foxy, W.O.S, Naked 2, Faint, Crave




After buying all the beauty products, I really wanted to get my hands on some clothes because it have been a rather long time since I've bought some really nice clothes. Therefore, I headed over to Topshop in hopes of seeing some really pretty jumpsuit that I have been wanting for quite awhile. However, nothing really caught my eye but I got my hands on even more beauty product. and accessories instead.
H&M Belt ( S$7.90)
Topshop: Lip Crayon in Red (S$16) & Necklaces (S$29)
I have been trying to look for a perfect shade of red lipstick for quite awhile. Hence, I decided to give this topshop lip crayon a try as I like its matte finish. So, I saw this really pretty necklaces and couldn't resist bagging it as well. I've been looking around for a black belt with gold buckles for quite some time and was really happy when I saw this belt at H&M. However, I would have preferred if the belt was of a wider width as I find it a little too skinny. It was going at a really cheap price though so I just bought it.


So, these are my haul for the shopping trip yesterday! This will be the last post for quite awhile until I am done with my finals. I promise I will update more often after my examinations are over and I will probably change the layout of my blog then. See you lovelies in 2 weeks' time!

CATALOG

Decided to shoot for a blogpost after my internship interview. Since the past week has been so hectic and stressful with all the exams and presentation in school I decided to have some fun and do some shooting! It wasn't exactly easy shooting in the scorching sun, but it was fun and we had a really good laugh. I especially love the contrast between the put- together look and rather dilapidated background.Hats have been such good friends to me lately. Rescuing me from all of my bad hair days as well as making up for my oddly small head giving it the extra width.
