Style File 17~~ Presenting... T's OSCARS BEST DRESSED List

I know, I know, I'm a bit late in posting this but I was kind of busy with this and that... Also, to be honest, I don't really like the Oscars or any other award show =/ Me don't watch usually except for the opening red carpet ceremonies where I get to see all these beautiful ladies and handsome gents walking down the red carpet with their designer dresses-suits looking chic and shiny-high and mighty ;p From head to toe, looking all glamorous, they dress to be looked at and I like to do so. Just for the sake of sharing, below is the list of who I thought killed it with the way they looked at the Oscars.
Did we agree mostly on the list? Any objections? Additions? Subtractions? oO??
What say you?

Etsy Picks~~ Spring Favorites Volume I (^__^)/

Spring is not my favorite season of the year but since it marks the end of winter and of course the end of the unstable, silly March weather, I happen to like it very much! All the liveliness, the colors and the life spring brings in people's lives are other reasons why the up and coming season is treasured and liked. I wanted to pick some items from Etsy which gives me the feeling of spring. Lots of colors, new beginnings, life, flowers, bugs, birds, clear blue skies etc... I guess we should be getting ready for the new season and what better way to do so than checking out some lovely unique, handmade items on Etsy.
Presenting my ~Etsy Picks for Spring Volume I~
Enjoy \(^_^)/

Naughty Japanese ^^'

A friend of mine just came back from her 3 months ship journey. She flew out to Japan first; stayed there for a week or so and took a cruise ship to Dubai, Singapore, India and some more countries which I can not remember at the moment. Sounds amazing doesn't it?!? She brought back some snacks and little gifts for me :) I mostly loved these cocoa cookie bars covered with chocolate in the shape of a penis!! XD You have got to love the Japanese. They come up with these whimsical, naughty, fun things that makes it impossible for you get bored there on Japan land ^__^ She bought them from Okinawa where she loved. I haven't been there yet but I most certainly will be some time around next year. She couldn't carry the whole box of cookies because the box was too large but she cut off the front of the box and squeezed it in her luggage because she just had to bering it;
see "why?" v below v
Sorry again, I had to take the photo with my phone and the cookie looks very blurry ><

A Tasty-Fun Discovery

A good friend of mine introduced me to this very cute restaurant last night. Unfortunately, I did not have my camera with me so I took the photos with my cell-phone's camera. Though the phone's battery died soon after we ordered so I did not have a chance to take a photo of what I was eating yet again ><>
The entrance was kind of hidden and mysterious. Right after you slide the door you hear a cat "moeeewww"ing and a frog "wraaack"ing. I'm not going to talk a lot about the interior now because I will be updating this post with photos of the interior. Promise with better photo quality this time!!

Style File 16~~ Shoes from leather and stainless steel - Introducing MARLOES

Beauty Page 24~~ First Round of Sasa Orders Has Arrived!!

I wasn't expecting the pack this early!! I was happy with the fast shipment and was kind of hoping for the pack to arrive sooner than the ones before. The reason? I had some bad reactions to some BRTC toner and cream. My face got all red, irritated and dry after couples of times of use. I've got really really sensitive skin and the toner I've used was heavily scented and I guess it contained alcohol. The cream was supposed to sooth my skin but dried it very badly!! Should have known better... So I needed my JUJU cream as soon as possible!! Guess I'm lucky ;p I'm trying not to touch my skin as much as possible so I'll be using the toner after a week when my face gets a bit hydrated and all the rash is gone! So it's going to take me more than 2 weeks to write a review on the toner and the BRTC serum. I'm not even sure if I should use any other product from BRTC (>.<) Anyways... Here are the photos of my package and the goodies it contained!!

~Meet Clio~

Born in Belgium April 16th 1982, now residing in Montreal, Clio is active and creative in any possible way!! Disguises as your regular woman who rents houses by day. When night falls, she leaves her day skin behind, transforming into; Painter, illustrator and crafster extraordinaire Clio! She also runs this amazing store on Etsy, selling unique retro necklaces. The chit chat begin right after I sent a 'heads up' message, letting her know that one of her items was featured here on my blog. I found out about Clio's paintings later on when I went back to her store page to read a thing or two about her designs and herself. I should say, I love her kind of expression on canvas or any other material on which you can paint-scratch on. Her paintings are colorful, interesting, not at all ordinary; faces, places and figures have character!! Some disturbing but not at the same time :)

She's having a show in Montreal that opens the night of March 11th falling on a Thursday. You may see the detailed information below on the poster about the place and time of the show. Unfortunately, I live quite far away(I'm talking continents) from where the show is going to be so I won't be able to see her art live and get to meet her in person but if YOU are living anywhere near by, GET GOING!!

See her WEBSITE featuring sketches, painting and more information on Clio-don't miss the "interests" section under folder "Biography" ~_^
Check out her store on Etsy to make one of Clio's unique designs yours!

And DO see her show if you're anywhere near Montreal!!!!!

Beauty Page 23~~ Some New Goodies from Sasa

I have mentioned on the Vitacreme post that I was running out of moisturizer and toner. I also am running out of cleanser... So I decided to give some new products a try. I searched online through many web-sites and did a detailed research and finally decided on what to try!! Winter has been harsh on my skin! My Avene Gel Cleanser is drying out my skin too much and the Anti-shine regulating lotion from the same brand is not hydrating or moiturizing enough in winter. I guess both the products are better for summer. So I'm replacing the cleanser with JUJU Aquamoist HA Foam Cleanser. I still am to order this one from Sasa...

Skipping on to the things I've ordered... A Pore Tightening Serum from BRTC(US$25.30 for 30ml); JUJU Cosmetics Aquamoist Vitamin C Cream(US$15.20 for 50g)&Toner(US$12.30 for 120ml). I'll be using JUJU as my day cream while applying Vitacreme as a night cream and see how it will all work out(hopefully great!). JUJU products had around 300 something raving reviews from the users on Sasa. So I thought, these can't go wrong. They're also for all skin types and really really cheap!! People compared Creme de la Mer with JUJU's Vitamin C Moisture cream O_O

Click on the images below to be directed to the product's homepages on Sasa and read more detailed information plus reviews of users. I will review the products myself after a 2 weeks trial.
