OOTD #1 (budget friendly)

This is my first outfit of the day segment! 
My casual outfit for a hot hot day (such as today). I wore a navy blue chiffon top from Costa Blanca (I'm starting to really like the clothes there), khaki shorts from Winners, braided belt from Forever 21 and my strappy black studded sandals from China.

Julep Maven boxes

I was introduced to these Julep Maven nail polishes through one of my friends. What caught my eye was the fact that the first introduction box can be bought for $0.01, that's right a PENNY (the original price for a boss is $19.99 + Free shipping for Mavens)! All I did was register by taking the style quiz to determine which box would suit you the best. After the quiz you will formally register by creating a password and inputting emails and such. A confirmation email should appear in your inbox shortly after sometimes it can take up to a day, that's what happened to me.  When checking out use the PENNY code to get the box for a penny! Also the best thing is that this subscription can be cancelled before the 26th/27th of each month, or skipped if you do not like the nail polish colours.

Usually a box comes with 3 items: 2 nail polishes and a cream of some sort + little extras. 

The Classic with a Twist intro box. 

The June box with 2 sugar sticks and a spf lip balm (I didn't know they were going to be added) 

Colours from Left to right: Lauren, Claire, Kelly, Anne

I decided to do my nails with Claire and Anne, and topped it off with Elf's Matte Finisher. I used nail dotting tools to make the circles :3

Anime North 2012

This is my first year going to Anime North, I've been wanting to go since Gr.8 (junior high), but never ended up going because of the timing of the event and I often forgot about it =__=. I knew the convention was around May but was never sure of the date. I only found out the actual date the week of the convention and thank goodness I had no work on Friday so I was actually able to go! 
Here are some pictures, there aren't many ><

Drugstore (Lipstick) Haul

There was a sale at Shoppers & Rexall where Rimmel Long Lasting Lipsticks including the special edition Kate Moss lipsticks were on sale for 2 for $6! I went a little crazy and grabbed a bunch, seriously. I generally love lipstick line, it is my all time favourite! I grabbed majority of the creamy shades, I'm trying to avoid any shimmers, or metallics. Aside from lipsticks I also grabbed some annabelle stuff which were on sale, 2 for $2, and 3 concealers, I forgot to include the GOSH concealer stick.  





(Crush, Guest List, Nostalgia, Just So)

(Paradise, Asia, Heavenly, Royalty)

I honest;y do not think I would look very good in these shades but I just couldn't resist purple-mauve colours :D OMG Heavenly and Royalty look so pretty except I know that I will look absolutely horrible in those >< 

(Rimmel Long Lasting Finish by Kate Moss: 03, 05, 07, 08)

I can't wait to try these all, swatches will be posted later!
