So here's the 'bang'! I was feeling inspired last week despite the falling sky. No I didn't get flowers from a secret admirer. I checked my table, nothing there. Just mountains of files looking like they were ready to fall on me. *shredder please!*
What was different last week anyway? Well I realised I had been wearing The Body Shop's latest summer fragrance Love Etc... Sun Kiss everyday of last week. It could have been as a matter of convenience that it's the easiest to reach on my currently messy dressing table but I was glad it was my fragrance of the week.
It's so fresh and vibrant! I rather liked the original scent but I love this one loads more. So I figured instead of doing just another review on a fragrance, why not give my own interpretation of Love Etc... with an outfit that I think describes it best plus it's just more fun. I call it a "Photo Write Up". *moment of brilliance there :P*
Love Etc... Sun Kiss is a fruity-floral fragrance with a blend of jasmine and fresh nectarine notes. Created by Dominique Ropion who is a world renowned perfumer, it embodies everything FLIRTY, DARING and a dash of CHEEKY. No brainer why I was attracted to this one.
It is housed in a distinctively shaped bottle with an eye catchingly pretty ombre gradient in orange-pink with a gold top. The fragrance works really well with varying body tempratures, I'm indoors one minute then outdoors the next *you're hot and you're cold, you're yes then you're no.. Katy Perry anyone?*. Great staying power too.
The other two summer fragrances which are an exciting twist to the originals are White Musk Sun Glow and Dreams Sun Fresh. These are limited editions so if you fancy any or all of them you have to get them soon! Each Eau de Toilette retails at RM85 for 50ml and also comes in the body purée variant. Layer it! ;)

I just realised, who in the right mind would spray any sort of fragrance on themselves in a pool? Then again, there's always something strange happening when it comes to the Chocolate Cats. *wootsz*

I'm really not one for heels. More often than not I will only wear them if I have to. Don't get me wrong though, I appreciate a gorgeous pair of heels but wearing them is another story all together. Which is why I always opt for flats, they are loads more comfy and I don't have to fear tripping to my death. Ridiculous I know.
One of my all time faves is a pair of Converse which I swear looks good with almost anything. I got these pair of Sparkle Nightshade early last month as a belated birthday present and am still completely adoring it. Lurv the colour. Lurv how the sequins sparkle when light bounces off it even more. I kept my outfit simple to focus on my shiny new kicks. The shoes were a definite head turner. Looks fabulous in action! Oh and featuring my new hair colour in Ash. :)

One of my fave T's from H&M. The graphic is artsy with a hint of freakish. Plus it's so comfy. I got this one from the H&M store on Oxford Street, London. Brings back memories when I used to drop by H&M every week to see whats new and end up buying too many things. Lol. But soon enough I don't have to go so far to get some really cool stuff. H&M is finally coming to KL!! *throws confetti & jumps around like a looney*
With the rumour starting way back in 2009, I heard H&M is making its way to Malaysia some time in Autumn 2012! Hinting that its first store could be in a mall along Jalan Bukit Bintang, Suria KLCC or Mid Valley Mega Mall, this news is simply brilliant.
Though I have a feeling it could be a mall along Jalan Bukit Bintang since they are looking for a store that could be between 10,000 to 30,000 sq feet. Hmm.. that sounds like the size of where Debenhams is currently located at Lot 10. Debenhams is moving out to Starhill Gallery after all. *smiless*
