I rather like that first photo although my friend says it looks freakish. The focus was suppose to be on my wrist but it made my arm look miles long instead. Really isn't a very good look. I should figure out how to get that effect with my legs. Lol. Featured in last photo: Pearl Milk Tea. *Yumss*

I lurv a perfectly stacked arm and despite my ever growing collection, I still wan't more pretty bracelets. So I decided to DIY some with styles and colours I fancy.

Mixing and matching your jewellery is always a great way to get the look you want. I was going for a fun look with complimenting colours. Turned out pretty! These are so fun and easy to make and needless to say I'm hooked and I'm making more, in different colours. Though I'm finding it such a task sourcing out brass materials and acrylic rhinestone chains here. *sigh*

Spring may not be in the air just yet, since Europe is still freezing and all. But Lancome's Spring 2012 Collection Roseraie des Delices (Rose Garden of Delights) is out and gives you a gorgeous taste of spring. Inspired by a rose garden cherished by Nelly, the wife of Lancome's founder, the pastel colours from this collection is perfect for spring. Rose garden party anyone? With Lancome's the latest ambassadress Hanaa Ben Abdesslem fronting the Spring Campaign, she lends a sensuously feminine feel to it.

Aaron De Mey had in mind a woman relaxing, maybe throwing open her bedroom windows and taking chairs out into the garden to laze in the soft light filtering through the leaves. This is also his last and final collection for Lancome.

I attended a tea party at the Lancome Parkson Pavilion counter yesterday to experience this whimsically beautiful collection. Lancome will be holding a day long Tea Party at various counters on different days just to allow its fans try out the latest collection and also learn how to apply makeup and bring out the best of Spring colours with the help of Lancome's Colour Design Artists. Cupcakes will also be served. ;)

Used the Vert Trendesse on my eyes. Stunning palette!

Unlike the previous collections where I found the blush to be the main attraction of a collection, this time the Vert Tendresse stole the show. It's a gorgeous mint and greens eye palette that looks so fairytale-like. I lurv ♥ lurv this palette! The colour stands out like no other. The other eye palette is Rose Romance features soft pinks, peach and burgundy. RM140 each.

The blush however does not disappoint with the signature rose design that's just beautiful. La Roseraie Blush Palette (RM120), a limited edition piece is a rosey-peach powder blush that evens out and illuminates the complexion. The rosy shade brightens the complexion and the peach gives it a natural glow. How to wear it: Blend both shades together and apply to cheeks, chin and forehead. The pink shade can also be applied to the upper cheekbones to accentuate or just below the eye to disguise dark circles.

French Touch Absolu Lipstick comes in three shades (RM80) . Rose Candy - a vibrantly radiant fuchsia, Cotton Candy - soft pink, Sweet Marmalade - a sheer coral. The packaging is really pretty!

Radiant Fuschia, Cotton Candy, Sweet Marmalade

The Color Fever Gloss is enriched with plant based ingredients and a lavender fragrance, includes sweet almond oil, which leaves lips feeling soothed and hydrated. Available in three shades (RM75) - 310 A sheer orangey red, 387 Tangerine Petal a sheer soft coral and 388 Rose Petal a sheer baby pink. No sign of the Green Petal gloss though. Was very curious to try it out.

*Flips through the papers* Oh wow!! When I was asked whether this was something I wanted to do I didn't expect a full page feature. I vaguely remember the interview taking place but can't for the life of me recall what I said. I was keeping my fingers crossed I didn't sound a mess.

When I saw the feature I was over the moon. Never seen a photo of me that huge before. Lol!! As for sounding a mess, well the only thing I can say is the article was just ace. Well now you guys know a lil bit more about the strangeness behind Chocolate Cats and thanks loads for reading my blog. ^^ Click here to read article.

Also thanks loads Harian Metro for a brilliant feature!! Made my day. Oh heck, it's one of the coolest things ever. :)

I finally defaced the Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette! I have a whole post on Naked 2 and will be putting it up soon. Since I can already play around with the colours, I created the 'Not So Naked' look. Come on the palette isn't exactly boring despite the name.

My eye makeup skills still needs work but I'm learning. Its gotten better though. Lol. I used Verve on the entire lid, Pistol on the outer corner, Snake Bite in the crease and Booty Call to highlight. More on this look and other looks with the Naked 2 write up.

Running off to buy a certain newspaper now. *winks*

Remember the MAC Me Over collection which was launched for Fall/Winter 2011. Well I have a few of the lipsticks and lipglasses from that collection in case you guys were wondering how some of the shades would look like on a medium skin-toned me. I have with me on the one hand an extreme bright and intensely dark shade and on the other hand some really nude ones. Some crazy dramatic shades on me. Sounds fun already! As with all MAC lippies, expect the vanilla scent.

The Lipsticks

Runaway Red, Prince Noir, Secret Lover

Runaway Red is a blue base medium red lipstick with a hint of fuschia if your eyes can catch it in the photo. The colour is intense even with one layer but with two layer it's pretty much opaque. Its satin finish gives it that bit of creamy look.

Prince Noir is a deep burgundy with red undertones. What can I say, it's dark. I probably wouldn't wear this ever so often, perhaps for a statement lip. That said, it can be toned down with some gloss. This is a matte finish.

Secret Lover more along the lines of barely there with loads of fine gold shimmer. I suppose the lustre finish says it all. Great to mix and tone down brighter or darker shades.

The Lipglasses

Good Times is a light pink mauve. It appears a creamy nude pink on my lips and despite applying two layers, does not appear to cover my lip colour. Still clearly visible. Great for mixing and toning down brighter or darker shades.

Illicit is a light peach beige with micro shimmer. It appears a creamy nude beige on my lips and just as Good Times, despite applying two layers, does not cover my lip colour. I suppose I could use this if I'm going for a nude look. Otherwise i'll be mixing and toning down with this one. I found this one to settle a lot quicker on my lips compared to Good Times.

Mixing Colours
Runaway Red Lipstick + Illicit Lipglass

Prince Noir Lipstick + Good Times Lipglass

If these lipsticks and lipglasses are still around at MAC counters, they retail at RM68 each.

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*

Sorry for going on silent mode for the past week or so. One of my cats have been really sick and I can't seem to focus on blogging. His blood test result comes out tomorrow and fingers crossed it's encouraging news. *prays hard*

My day got a bit brighter when I received these Sparkle Nightshade Converse as a long awaited very belated birthday present this morning, one of many, from darr-ling brother. *smiles* I really wanted these ones, the purple sequins are just fab but since the Malaysian stores don't carry it, he brought it back from Melbourne. Completely adore them! Thanks x infinity you!! *big huge hugzz*
