Howling at the New Moon


By now, everyone and their grandaunts would probably know I'm not a rabid (pun intended XD) Twilight fan.

The - undead *ouch* - giveaways?

: 21-year old vampire-loving female blogger who has only blogged once about Twilight
: Has not had any countdown celebrations for New Moon's screening
: Does not wish to change her name to Adele Cullen or Adele Black
: Will never be caught going around gushing about Team Edward or Team Jacob




Despite the overly-mushy, archaic lovey dovey tone of the Twilight Saga... there's one saving grace yet for the descendants of Dracula! *hip hip hooray*

Her name is Alice, Alice Cullen XD

Edward, Bella and Jacob can have their fun looking lovelorn... just give me Alice and I'll be fang-tastically happy ^^

For one thing, this girl's got style!


Alice and Jasper


It takes attitude to pull off Vintage without looking ridiculously last century, which Alice does despite being from... erm, the last century.

She's talented, gutsy, strong, fun and caring. Proving that it is possible to be nice and yet fun to be around ^^

Halloween's done and over with, but with New Moon coming around, get some style tips from Alice and hit the cinema looking fashionably chic!


Hair


Go for a whole new, fresher look with a skilfully done pixie cut that accentuates sharp features.

Plus point: Do it right and you definitely won't be getting "OMG!You look like an auntie!" comments ;)


Attire


While it wouldn't be feasible to don such warm attire in sunny Malaysia, take a tip from Alice by pairing an elegant scarf with a contemporary coat-like long top in a muted yet "young" shade of blue.

Alternatively, opt for preppy checks with an edgy crocheted sleeveless cardigan.



Alice is definitely one for Chictopia! :)


Accessories

Replica of Alice's necklace

Ribbons and cameo brooches need not necessarily be old-fashioned. Add a touch of femininity to your outfit without giving "feminine" a bad rep :P


Lastly, don't forget to smile ^^

Even if your partner, standing right beside you, looks like a jiang shi



As part of my devious scheming to get fangirls all screamingly excited (while I take over the world by becoming a bewitching vamp XD ), here's the trailer to New Moon.

Enjoy hopefully :P



And if you did enjoy that, what're ya waiting for? XD

This New Moon rises only once, and Nuffnang's giving 30 bloggers invites to the exclusive, premiere screening of New Moon.

Alice! Wheeeeee!

P/S: Wasn't vampire baseball in Twilight so awesomely fun? =D

Ichigo Ramen's Events


Pink Bazaar!


Adele will probably be heading to Pink Bazaar next Saturday with KF and Shaun. Come join in the fun if you have the time =)

Sha-Lene of YSK will be there too!

I'm still very much in 7th heaven from my vintage lace bf blazer, and also partly because of Pink Bazaar... I haven't bought anything online since *good girl* XD

And, and, and... I'm really excited because one of my fav blogshops will be there!

I've blogged about how Ilovesnackfood makes me happy, and now they will be at the bazaar to add a touch of quirky-licious happiness too~ hehe ^^

Becky - Japanese model/entertainer/designer


Celebrities these days seem so multi-hyphenate. They delve into practically all areas of the biz.

I solemnly swear this has got something to do with my exam preparation... partly XD I'm reading up on the theory of simulacra for Screen Theories & Techniques.

...Although it doesn't justify reading up on juicy gossip about Asian boybands ;)



...Like the TVXQ scandal. All the "you're lying"/"slave contract"/"3 against 2 - traitors!" talk is enough to make an exam seem trivial in comparison XD

Fans of Johnny's Entertainment's stable of boybands - albeit ones with a sense of humor - don't miss out on the wise-cracking http://uwasako.livejournal.com/

Some of these rumors are really hilarious, teehehehehehe

Along with http://www.regretsy.com, it's one of the most rib-tickling & side-splitting time-wasting blogs I've encountered this year.

Anyhow, gossip was the way I stumbled on Becky - through her alleged 'non-romance' with a certain member of Jpop gorup NEWS it's really more funny than it sounds XD

She's actually the designer of her own label of wedding gowns , BCK Message! Miss Talented or what?

No guarantees your wedding entourage won't burst into fits of giggles when they see you, but hey... I'm a cosplayer wat, nothing's too OTT =P


I can so imagine me in this origami dress, not.


Barbie, much?


Race Queen getting married? This is so, like, the 'it' dress ;)


My Fair Lady ^^


The lolita's wedding gown... can't miss out the bow =P


Kimono meets Jewel in the Palace meets Princess Barbie

Tomorrow's the big day!

First up, International Trade Law. Ok la, this is one of my fav subjects and I think I can do it. Hope they don't spring super duper hard questions on us though, or else I'll fall flat on my face.

5/11 - Screen Theories and Techniques. Another unit I like... but Andrew's marking it so, ehehehehe....... no comments XD

9/11 - Managerial Economics. Notice how I always whine about my economics-related exam papers? =.=

16/11 (last one!) - Trade Finance and Foreign Exchange. Refer to statement above.
I know, my 1st exam paper starts on Thursday... wth am I doing blogging at this insane hour?! XD

*mock posh tone* It's passion for sharing + blogging + aesthetics, my dears =P

Sasha Vintage updated with an awesome collection - My Fair Lady! ^^

It's a theme that pays homage to classic elegance ala Audrey Hepburn, so you know it's going to be good if lace and demure wardrobe staples are your cup of tea ;)

I'm eyeing a particular piece that'll dig a hole in my bank account, but it's so pretty! XD

Go check out Sasha Vintage now! Just don't reserve/buy the Bow-Wow Bf Blazer before I do, hehe.

P/S: Plus point - owner Sasha Lian is very nice and pleasant! :)

P/P/S: I've officially gone nuts and bought the blazer! XD

I don't believe in paying PosLaju's high postage rates, but me caved in for this... Look at that beauty ^^

Avalanche - Marie Digby


I'll be the first to admit I'm no fan of Marie Digby, not because I don't like her - I'm just not that interested.

I don't know when Avalanche was released except that it's off her 2nd album, as I first heard the song on the radio.

It entertained me for a brief few minutes while I was annoyed that I was late for MUSA's appreciation dinner, battling the rain and rush hour traffic XD

The radio's what actually makes driving so enjoyable for me, singing aloud in the car with no one else to listen to your off key tunes ;)

Avalanche is one of those songs lah, good for chilling out to and it'll definitely appeal to the young crowd. I know I would love this song to bits if I was, say, 15 =P

Just like how I would be crazy over Hannah Montana's Best of Bost Worlds *grin*

Hehe, couldn't resist sharing the above picture.

Truth is, my room's lighting is the total opposite of the "emo bulb" now. It's a new tube of daylight fluorescent lamp... it feels like I'm sitting under the sun minus the heat.

Except that I am emo-ing over exams. Just as well the lights are like a smack in the face (and eyes *ouch*) to be optimistic XD

(I love natural daylight, btw ^^ )

Kit's sent over my package today! ^^ Probably receiving it in a couple of days' time. Zeus grant me the strength to actually read my lecture and tutorial notes instead of those enticing novels =.=

Btw, you've got to check this out!


http://lyndonwade.com/#/portfolio/room-107/86/


I'm not gonna spoil the fun by giving away too much, so just head on over and explore.

It's really interesting. Trust me ;)

Ta-to for now. Going for a complimentary beauty treatment later in DJ, and getting my hair cut... maybe XD

You guys and gals, seriously, the chatbox messages make me wanna cry (in a good way la, k?) :)

Chee-v kor, Mr Anderson, Stephanie, Sara, and many more... thanks for not giving up on my blog even when I did.

Tadaima! (I'm back)

KF pretty much forced me to update XD

... And I came back and realized the last post was a really misleading cliffhanger.

So here's a new one =P

Lately:

I found out Lady Gaga once did burlesque... wohoo! Makes sense, as she shows off some burlesque-ish moves in Eh Eh's video.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iO7wGkHEMk

I love the vid! It's so colourful! XD

Purposely put a link instead of embedding as that version of the video is one of the clearest I've seen, with lyrics at the sidebar.

I also finally made the leap and bought preloved/books online! ^^

Quite a number of books coming by post... *bliss*. I love getting goodies in the mail :)

Books 'N' Stuff

Kit's having a clearance sale bcoz she's moving house, and I got some reads from her.






.All pics by Kit.


The Stone Menegarie, The Dragons at War, and The Once and Future King are pretty much standard stuff for me - magic, fantasy, etc XD

Kiki Strike got astoundingly good reviews on Amazon ;)

Susuk as I'm plain curious, lol.

Right now I'm pretty much waiting for the parcel to arrive, hope everything will turn out alright. Kit's been nice to deal with though :)

I'm such a hoarder. I'm moving house too by December, and exams are very near.... but I'm considering it as a pre-post exam treat =P

Wohoo Adele, hehe.

Ok la, this post's stretched wayyyyy too long.

Ciao for now! Finals in 8 days' time.

Gee >.<
