Featured Seller: Wicked Indulgence Confectionery

2012-02-06T02:00:00.000+08:00

I've put off writing about this shop for a few weeks or so just because I know this shop best fits the Love month. If you want something unique to give to your lover, partner, or you just want to make someone happy this Valentines' Day, I'd say get them some wicked dark chocolates from the Wicked Indulgence Confectionery.

Note: This post is for serious chocoholics!

Diamonds may be every girls bestfriend, BUT.. Like what I told mam Angie, the next best thing is chocolate!!! I feel privileged to feature an amazing shop that I'm so happy it discovered my site thus I learned about what they offer... and I'm pretty sure you'll be amazed and intrigued as much as I am.

There's more to chocolate than meets the eye! True enough, I've seen just how creative Wicked Indulgence could be. Just by simply going to their multiply shop, you'll already be enticed by how they see and speak of chocolate. More than that, their main focus is Dark Chocolate and fusions! If there's all sorts of 2012 fashion trends, I'm telling you Dark Chocolate is the latest trend on chocolates. But I'm pretty sure these fusion chocolates that the Wicked Indulgence has to offer would leave you wondering and wanting for more. (sure is working on me!)

When asked, Mam Angie said that among their best sellers are the Cinnamon, Nutmeg & Vanilla (heavenly with a mean cup of Cafe Americano, dunk it and let it melt slowly) and the Chili - especially among male clients (simply because of its contradictory slow burn and knockout power). Personally, mam Angie mentioned she loves the Dark Caramel Crisp (the honeycomb is also handmade) and the Chili. Opposite in every way but perfect for eating together.

These are your selections:

The way mam Angie talks about these chocolates definitely tickles your imagination.

They've also got some rocking instructions as to how to eat your chocolates to fully enjoy it.

I seriously recommend trying out their chocolates, and most especially, getting it as gift to your honey. You can even order a set and maybe enjoy it by the fire place or as dessert after a romantic dinner. Nothing beats first experiences. Experience the bliss of gourmet chocolates, and just like what the Wicked Indulgence Confectionery's shop says: "Welcome to dark side!"

Cheers!!! ^_^

Eyeglasses for Fashion

2012-01-23T23:40:00.000+08:00

This opportunity's timing is perfect... I was just on the lookout for those popular nerd fashion glasses, and voila, I get to review one of the #1 online glasses store there is: Zenni Optical.

Do you know that they offer the latest AR coating, Finger print resistant also known as Oleophobic coating, which also is an anti-reflective coating. Pretty neat, right? What's best about this feature is that its very advanced version: super-hydrophobic/oleophobic coated lenses effectively repels oil, water, and dust besides fingerprints while reducing annoying reflections. Lenses stay clearer, and makes it easier to clean. The reduced reflections are helpful when driving. You won't get too much of those overhead light reflections, and you want to know what else? You don't even have to worry taking off your glasses when photos of you are being taken! How cool is that?! Definitely lots of lesser hassle for anyone wearing it.

With all these special features you might even forget you're wearing an eyeglass sometimes. I know I'm going to enjoy this real nice coating if ever I need to purchase one.

Oh, the fun doesn't stop there. Zenni optical actually offers as low as $6.95 prescription glasses with the said oleophobic coating! That's very affordable for something so sleek!

Check out a few of what I feel like getting (all for only $6.95 each!!!):

Harry Potter glasses???

Neon glasses are very much in the trend!

I love this one!

And of course let's not forget: the Retro glasses, FTW!

I just so love browsing online... now... if only I'd be able to get me one of these lovelies. ^_^

Featured Seller: Sabizca Iloilo

2012-01-18T00:30:00.001+08:00

Sometimes all it takes is a lot of will power and family's support.

That's how and why Sabizca Iloilo started her online business. Although she didn't know how to do it, and where to start, she still went through with it. With guidance from her family and then soon enough the others sellers she became friends with, Sabizca Iloilo is now getting the hang of this kind of business.

Basically, she began by selling her twin sister's preloved stuffs that had been stuck in their cabinet. And then, when her relatives in the US learned about her business, they started sending her more items (US Authentic) to sell. Yes you read that right... Sabizca Iloilo's items are a variety of perfumes, fashion jewelries, shoes, make ups, and plenty more... the best among her items so far are the:

Authentic Michael Kors/Calvin Klein bags!!!

Michael Kors Bag

Sabizca's Personal Fave: Michael Kors

Her best selling items are her perfumes:

Authentic Smart Collection Perfume(Made in France)

Now, as for my personal fave from our lovely featured seller... i'd say ever since that VS Fashion Show with Maroon 5's "Move Like Jagger", I chose this:

VS Pink

Now... I've always dreamed of someday wearing sexy VS tops or whatever... if I wear this tee would I become a VS bombshell??? Lols~

THIS IS FREE!!! IF YOU PURCHASE 2 DOZENS (at wholesale price) OF VICTORIA SECRET SPRAY!

So, if you want any of these or want to see more of Sabizca's products... just visit her and maybe ADD HER UP! Go, go, go! ^_^

How To: Everyday Look Make Up

2012-01-08T03:19:00.001+08:00

I chanced up EverythingKawaii E-store's New Year "Mine" sale on cosmetics so I was able to purchase a haul. I don't usually do this: buying a set of make ups and all that. I had always been the pressed powder, blush on, eyeliner, lip tint or lip gloss chic... well... there's always room for improvement, thus, my first ever - not really a how to - rather, simply sharing what my everyday look for 2012 will be post.

In this post however, our focus is on these adorable, cute looking, MAC Ball Blushers.

Mac Ball Blusher (Pastel Colors/Glow):
As you can see: these blusher is made in powder balls. I'd best describe it as a palette of colorful round pellets. LOLs~

Anyway, this color (pastel glow) works better as a highlighter all over the cheeks and the face than a blush on. But for simple looks, you can actually make it work on its own.

Lovely colorful pastel powder pellets.

These are the shades that you'll find in the blush container:

On the skin: A touch of purple, pink, orange, and light blue green (highlighter)

Now, what you do is swirl the brush around inside the container, and hopefully you get a nice mix of all the colors to get the highlight or blush that you want for your cheeks.

For someone with my skin tone (fair to dark), you'll notice that the colors turns a little light and doesn't easily show. You'll have to put either a little more amount of it, or you can just add a darker shade of blush on, and then use the MAC ball blusher as highlight.

In this post though, I used the MAC ball blusher as it is, on my cheeks, and all over my face...

Swirling the brush around to get the most of all the colors...

Put foundation or pressed powder first to clean up your face,
and then feel free to apply the MAC ball blusher.

And then I put on the usual black eyeliner, a little pink and purple eyeshadow on the eyelids and on the corner of my eye... match it up with red lipstick that matches my nail polish... placed my hair down, and voila!

A nice, light, could pass for an everyday look.

Now, the problem is... where do I go now???

Oh well! Enjoy!!!

Featured Seller: SOMETHING YOUNG

2012-01-03T23:55:00.002+08:00

I've been eyeing this shop for quite some time before the year ended... good thing I became too busy during the holidays, I'm now starting the year with a fabulous feature.

Start the year with SOMETHING YOUNG, by Sarah Jane Young.

Just like any other successful businesses, Something Young is a product of a hobby turned business story. Sarah is a self confessed Do-It-Yourself girl. In fact, this polymer creations started out when she tried to recreate polymer pieces she liked online. To finance her DIY obsession, she sold her works online and now, Something Young is amongst my favorite polymer slash locket source.

The last time I had a locket similar to what Sarah makes is when my aunt from New Jersey gave me one... and that was back when I was young. It's gone now, and I never saw anything like it ever... until I came across Something Young. Now, I'm still deciding which to get for myself.

Anyways, here are among Sarah's best seller:

Fleurettes Locket Collection

Here's a little story behind this collection from Sarah herself:

"The Fleurettes Locket Collection has been my goal ever since I started creating with polymer clay. The time-consuming, most-intricate technique showcased in this collection is commonly known as the applique technique. Given the little time I could spare to trinket-making during college, I couldn't make this technique until I finally got a lot of time to spare on polymer clay. I find this technique very sophisticated and unique. Plus, I get to cover them in lots of sparkly shimmer! :P" ~Sarah Young

Little Blue Bouquet - Locket Necklace.

Something About Vintage - Locket Necklace.

Aren't they just gorgeous???

Here's my personal fave: Since I'm into red colors this year,

Dainty Candy Flowers - Locket Necklace.

Blossom Festival - Locket Necklace.

Something Young is proud of its uniqueness, sophistication, and intricacy. Something we could all very well see in these lovely creations before us. Definitely, something adorable...

GOING RED: Fashion Power

2011-12-22T20:41:00.003+08:00

You can call it 'fashion intervention', I consider it a life changing attribute to how I wanna face the new year... and yes, I wanna face it with a bang!

But nobody said I should wait for the new year to use it?! What am I talking about??? The RED Power.

RED Collection photo from my Tumblr site: Andrea-Karlsan

Red, has always been known as one of the most powerful and the most exciting, sometimes even the most fun color you have. Even as kids, red is one of the first colors introduced to us. In fashion, RED gives anyone who wears it an aura of power - BOLD, IN-CHARGE!

Worn with Hope "Last Leaf" Bracelets

What's best about this color is that it compliments all kinds of skin tones. So how come not everyone's comfortable wearing it? Because in reality, it takes a little more guts to do so. Red, bold as it is can be a little intimidating, so if you're not sure when to wear it, here's a tip:

The best season to wear it is, NOW! Christmas or the holidays! If not that, Valentines can be your next best month to try it on.

But for the most part, you can actually wear red everyday if you want to. It all ends up with just how confident you are and how you'd carry the look.

As for me... I'm definitely going red from now on. Life improvement??? Love improvement??? Fashion improvement.. oh yes, RED can mean a lot of things... and why not?!

So, let's all go bold, and daring! GO RED!

Shop's name: HAVOC. Aurea, describes her shop as an everything under the sun type of shop offering a wide variety of accessories. Soon she says it'll carry some clothes new and preloved as well.

She likes exploring the possibilities and finding new stuff and sharing it to the world.

Wow! I feel like I'm echoing myself over here. ~haha...

This is probably the reason why I am so instantly attached and enticed on her and her pieces.

Now for the good stuff. Here's a few of the products you'll find in Havoc.

Her best seller:

Monkeyin' Around Drop Earrings
(now who wouldn't see the fun and style in that?!)

Keep the Faith Charm Bracelet
(Isn't this to die for???)

Alright. This part is where my own favorite item should go... but for the sake of obsession, envy, and argument... LOLs~ I'm going to put a few of what's keeping me all giggly with bliss!

Gossamer Wings Drop Earrings
(Time to unleash the Summer Gypsy in me...)

Be One with Nature
(Simple, yet hits the spot right on!)

Flower Power Drop Earrings

And there's actually more where that came from.

Fashion Tip: Thrift Finds (Round 1)

2011-11-30T01:30:00.003+08:00

Admit it or not, fashion can drive you broke! It's an obsession that's so hard to break... and once the trend starts kicking in, either you wanna have that look or you just can't help but create your own. Thus, an impulse buy.

But here's a trick that will surely fit your budget. Find a cheaper alternate. I'm not saying go for totally replica ones, rather, go for something that is said to be inspired by the original. Yes, that's a new way of putting it. INSPIRED.

So, last week, I saw a shop with a buy 1 take 1 promo... and these color leg glasses caught my attention. There's yellow, violet, and blue... I wanted one violet and one pink, however, pink is sold out so I kinda ended up getting these 3 instead.

Here's a couple of fun shots I made with it:

Lightly wacky, eah?

But nonetheless, I know these glasses will work with my outfits. These are actually a very good example of colour blocking accessories. Add up these silicon watches I won from a contest I participated in with a group of sellers:

Colored silicon watches

...and voila! More colors to accent my look.

It will be included in my most favorite everyday get up or something... so far these sums up my online buys from last week:

Buy 1 take 1 (+1) Color leg glasses, a couple of vintage necklaces,
and the silicon watches I won from a friend.
(Background is my favorite envelope bag!)

With all these fashion items, I knew I needed a better organizer. Thus, an addition to what I bought online is this:

Accessories organizer that you can hang with 33 slots back to back...

Now how cool is that right?

There you have it... the first round of my thrift finds. Who says fashion items need to be expensive. The best trick for fashion budget challenges is to find an affordable alternative, and wear it proudly... all you have to do is project with confidence. For sure no one else will figure out just how much your accessories are. But if they do find out, so what?! As long as you look good with it, why not?!

Fashion's all about looking good, and having fun with it anyway!

So... happy shopping and thrift away ladies! ^_^

Let's start by pasting her answer here... because I just love the way she said it:

Who's the lady behind the shop?

"I am a mommy fashionista, who believe that being beautiful is forever. I think that every woman is beautiful. You just have to know who you are and how you will handle yourself. Being positive helps, and that's what I am. Mary's Fashion Boutique online store makes me happy, why? Because it is my passion… It's not just about selling stylish dresses, but also sharing the fashion trends today to every woman out there. Actually I have a favorite Boutique at the mall... All of the clothes are Korean fashion styles. I thought of hmm... why not sell Korean fashion clothing too?! And sell it in a cheaper price. And I did! I am happy about it..."

And so I might add... now that she's selling it a much cheaper price, everyone else who loves Korean clothes is sure happy about it too! High five ms. Mary Grace!

Mary's Fashion Boutique prides itself with the fact that her clothes are all on-hand and ready to ship, unlike most Korean shops there is where you'd have to pre-order and wait... some even has cut-offs and all the hassles of more waiting. That's definitely a plus. Clothes available in Mary's boutique includes casual dresses, cocktail dresses, party suits, occasion outfits, and a variety of wedding dresses to prom dresses, evening dresses to maxi dresses, and many more.

Her best selling so far is this green chiffon dress:

Her own favorite is this animal printed dress which she says is one of that quickly turned into a modern fashion trend of today.

My personal favorite from her collection is channel-z style dress which is a form fitting dress a really nice pattern made with cotton and lace... love it!!!

If you like it too, and wanna see what else she has in her collections, feel free to visit her:
