While my spouse was shopping online with his home depot coupons, I was browsing The Container Store for some shoe storage solutions. I found these funky Como Drop-Front Shoe Boxes and I just love them.  They are great for protecting your shoes against dust and yet keeping them easy to access.  You can stack multiple boxes together in your closet.   Made from heavy-duty fiberboard frame, its exterior is covered with soft fabric.  Whether they are your Aldos or your Jimmy Choos, the Como Drop-Front Shoe Boxes are just what you need for pampering them.

I spotted this cute Contour Canvas Bag at Molla Space the other day.  This fun bag is designed to show the curvy contour of a woman’s body.  When held at the side, it coincide with your body.  From a distance, the sexy silhouette looks like it’s your body.  These cool bags are available in 5 different colours. Get one now if you want to show off your contour.

Have you gotten a gift for your loved one this Valentine’s Day?  Are you still busy looking for the right gift for that special someone in your life?  Valentine’s Day is about 2 weeks away.  My friends love receiving chocolates, sexy lingerie, a bouquet of flowers or a manicure/pedicure for Valentine’s Day.  As for me, I would love to have these :-

Pigment Shoes from Humanoid

Gemstone Bracelets from The Vamoose

Sac Nylon Tote from Calypso St. Barth

A few months ago, my spouse got together with a bunch of his friends and started playing some gigs at the local club.  He plays the guitar while his friends are on the drum and keyboard.  Another friend is the lead singer.  They enjoyed it so much that they have rented a place to pursue their dreams.  This weekend, they will be opening their own club which is equipped with the best music gear such as digitech vocal and bass processor, guitar pedal and etc. I just cannot wait to attend the club’s opening.  I will be wearing this Asos Wrap Dress With Tie-Waist this weekend and have a great time.

I just came across news about Seal and Heidi Klum’s divorce.  Boy it came as a shock to me.  They looked like a great couple together and very loving too.  They are known for renewing their marriage vows every year.  It was reported that Heidi cannot tolerate Seal’s volcanic temper anymore and it has started to affect the children.  The couple married in May 10, 2005 and have 3 biological kids. Seal adopted Heidi’s eldest girl from a prior relationship.

I have seen Angelina Jolie’s ad for Louis Vuitton “Core Values’”  campaign last June.  The photo was taken in Cambodia, the birthplace of her eldest son, Maddox.  Angelina was wearing her own clothes and has natural makeup on.  It is a beautiful photo and Angelina looked so serene and sultry.  What caught my eyes is the Louis Vuitton’s Alto bag on her shoulder.  This model has been discontinued at the time of the photo shoot.

I was a Louis Vuitton a few days ago and I just casually asked the salesperson if they have the weathered monogrammed bag that Angelina was carrying in the ad.  Well, to my surprise, they do.  Louis Vuitton decided to re-edit it due to the great demand after the ad was released.  However, I was a tad disappointed that it didn’t look like the bag in the ad.   Actually I prefer the weathered look more than a brand new one.  I wonder how long does it take to have that weathered look.

Oh why must the weekend go by so fast?  Sometimes I wish that the time would slow down.  It has been a pretty busy weekend for me.  Besides the usual cleaning around the home, I tried to organize my wardrobe.  There are some clothes which I have not worn for over a year and I think it is time for me to give them away.  My closet is looking a wee bit better now but I wish it looks like the one below.

I would love to wear short sleeves in the summer given the warm weather.  However my arms are flabby and I do not feel good wearing sleeves that are short.  Cap sleeves make my arms look big too.  I can never wear tank tops.  Tops with three quarter sleeves are my favourite besides long sleeve tops.  I found some tops that are great for disguising my flabby arms.

Rosette Flutter Sleeve Top from Forever 21

Embroidered Gathered Top from Forever 21

These blouses are not only flattering to your arms, they look great when paired with your favorite pair of jeans or slacks.

Chinese New Year is barely 2 weeks away.  It is a tradition to don new clothes on the first day of the Chinese New Year.  Well, guess what?  I haven’t got one yet.  I have been so busy since Christmas.  I must really start shopping soon.  My girlfriend was just telling me the same thing.  She has yet to get any new outfit though she has seen a few outfits that she really likes at Forever 21.  They are new arrivals and her picks are :-

Confetti Cut-out Dress

Ombre Colorblock Top

Colorblock Bandage Dress

Bright and colourful eh?  Well, in case you don’t know, red is an auspicious colour.  If you can’t find anything in red, then get the next brightest colour for your outfit.

I saw this step-by-step eye makeup guide at SaiFou.com and thought I’ll share it here.  The steps are easy to follow and result is just awesome.  I hope to try it out soon.  I just love the smoky eye effect and I always thought it is very hard to create it.
