Thailand P.I

I wanted to apologize for my recent lack of posts but I'm currently on holiday! The leg of my trip is already done and I've left Thailand for Penang a Malaysian Island. Here are some photos from Bangkok to forgive me!

A Thai Tuk Tuk, I think they look nice but aren't that fun since the drivers tend to be crazy and
the price they want you to pay for trips are only decided on your look.
(If you go to Bangkok take a taxi at least they have a meter so you can't be cheated and air-con).

Fresh lime juice (also orange/pinneaple ect...) can be seen served nearly everywhere around the city. Make sure it doesn't cost you more than 10BTH.

ASOS buys

I decided on giving myself (well having my parents buy me something) a little Xmas gift.
I'd been shopping for a new pair of jeans in Buenos Aires and really wanted to get the Levi's CURVE ID as an investment piece ($68 is expensive for jeans I think) but when I came to our local store they were about $130 for the EXACT same piece!
I was totally gutted and so turned my attention to Jeggings, which are supposed to be cheaper so if they don't last it won't be too bad.
But when I went to the store again to check some out they were TWICE the price of the ones I saw online!
So now I'm just going to buy my stuff on ASOS, at least if it doesn't fit I have 30 days to return them! And get my money back! I also bought myself a cute cardigan since I still don't own one and I'll be arriving in the middle of winter in Europe!

Friday Shopping

Today my friend Luna and I went to Paradise Garage to shop for some AY NOT DEAD sales items and thankfully for once I came out with something. I really love the Argentinian brand but I find their sizes are quite exclusive 00/0/2/4 and I can never buy anything.
But today I managed to snag some pretty rad leggings for an awesome price and even if they weren't actually my size and they fitted perfectly (I'm a size 8/10).








Ahh I'm so glad, definitely going to wear this on the plane back to France!

shopping

Well since summer is coming soon I decided to give myself a little something, when I went shopping and failed at finding a pair of jeans.
This awesome crop top is from A.Y. Not Dead and it cost me about 20 dollars, I know it's pretty expensive but the clothes here are all. I'm quite happy with it, it goes with nearly everything I own, from skirts to jeans & shorts.

SEPHORA primer review


I recently had a friend bring me the Sephora Smoothing Primer over from France, since we sadly don't have Sephora here.

I was basically looking for a primer that was affordable and that worked well.

You see my problem is I have oily skin and so my make-up has a tendency to fade or even just smudge which I hate. So putting my faith in the comments I had read online I decided to try it out.

I've always loved Sephora because it's basically quite affordable and the products have always hooked me up, quality wise.
I've been using it for about a week now and I have to say I'm impressed.

  • The texture is perfect, transparent, not too liquid but not thick enough to clog my pores. You just need a press for your whole face.
  • It doesn't smell like shit (hey I'm just being honest) I think it's pretty close to olive oil even though it's tagged as "Fragrance Free".
  • It lasts for at least 4 hours in my experience when used on eyelids. And more for the rest of the face.
  • Works well as an eyeshadow primer (I always used to have my eyeliner and eyeshadow smudging after batting my lashes a few times which was awful).
  • After using this my make up seems to glide off more easily when I wash it off.
In all I'm pretty happy about it. For 10e. it's more than I expected (seeing as Urban Decay's Primer Potion is twice the price). I'd definitely give it a 4/5.
