Oh Look it’s Ms. Paltrow

 
Never liked Gwyneth Paltrow.

Always thought she was just this forgettable, boring, flat-chested blond actress that appears in movies i don’t really watch… ok, i’m just being downright nasty but really, i can’t remember any movies she had acted in except Shakespeare in Love which i thought was just ok.

But then she went and developed a chic fashion sense, married the coolest guy on earth aka Chris Martin from Coldplay, had gorgeous babies and still looks gorgeous, in fact she is hotter than she ever been AND appeared in the coolest movie on earth aka Ironman (ok not the coolest but close).

Among other talents, i learned that she is multilingual and recently i only discovered she can sing! Like really sing! She’s pretty good too.
 


 

And just when i thought i would denounce myself as a GLEEK (because season 2 of GLEE is getting lame), i jump right back into the GLEEK wagon because of Ms. Paltrow.

Watch this mash-up of Rihanna’s Umbrella and Gene Kelly’s Singing in The Rain by none other than Gwyneth Paltrow and Matthew Morrison.
 


 

She is the epiphany of gorgeous and cool :).

Zenni Frame Fit

Zenni Frame Fit

 
I noticed that my current glasses are slightly bent. Must from all those late night readings where i fell asleep with my glasses on. Oh well, it’s about time I get a new glasses anyways. I think I’ve been using this description for almost 3 ½ years already.

But before I decide on the new frames I better check out Zenni’s fabulous new website. There’s a new try on feature that is absolutely great; Zenni now has the best tryon: Frame Fit which lets visitors the ease of uploading their picture and “try on” the variety of frames available on their website.

Here i am before i try the glasses online.
 


 

And here i am with a funky frame.
 


 

This is my favorite.
 


 

I think i look better with thin and simple frames.
 


 

Zenni has really done a great job. Not only are the prescription glasses at a low price 9 (as low as ZenniOptical $6.95 Rx Glasses) but now the website has a really convenient tool for try on. Check out Zenni’s New Site!

Say No to Expensive Glasses

Say No to Expensive Glasses

 
Yes, say no just like what the title of this post says!

Aren’t you tired of paying your hard earned money just on a pair of glasses that you’s probably change within a year once your prescription changes? I often wondered how much would would a glasses actually cost without the frills.

Now i know.

It’s $8 a pair. Yes, at Zenni Optical you can get yourself a pair of fashionable eyeglasses from $8 onwards! That’s the Lowest Price Progressive Glasses i’ve heard off anywhere. The glasses comes directly from their factory minus the middlemen so there is no transparent fees charged.

The selection of frames are wide too ranging from titanium, aluminium alloy, stainless steel and many more.

I found some of the designs rather nice. Like this one.

It’s no wonder Zenni is The #1 online Rx glasses store.

Kobe the Fashionista

 
Kobe’s coat is really soft and shiny now after i fed her cod liver oil everyday for a month. I just realized that her black coat is in even better condition than my brittle hair. It’s really crap that i am willing to spend more on my dog than on myself!

I am going to the pharmacy this weekend to get some fish oil capsules for my hair. Kobe will have to skip her cod liver this month coz i will be broke buying vitamins and primrose oil and now fish oil. On top of that it’s sales season… maybe Kobe will have to skip her baths too. Hey, dog shampoo not cheap ok.

I’m kidding. I love Kobe too much and she stink real quick, i can’t stand it even if i wanted to.

And when she’s not stinky she’s a real fashionista. Here’s a clip of Kobe in an old pair of undies. Don’t ask me to whom does it belongs to ok. Haha.

Turn on the mute if you don’t want to get annoyed by our baby-talk.
 


 

Poor dog.

Fake Bangs, DIY Curls and Stupid Beautician

 
I rarely blog about cosmetics and beauty stuffs. That’s because i’m a lazy bum and i prefer spending a few more extra minutes in the morning, in bed. I suspect i’m a guy in my previous life. Well, Mr. Bf agrees with me… not about me being a lazy arse but about me being a guy…that’s saying a lot about his sexual preference haha. I’m joking honey.

Ok, i admit it’s like only once a month, a week during PMS that i’m super vain and would pester Mr.Bf about my weight, my hair, my skin. Then i’ll go on a crazy shopping spree coz i need some more dresses or skirts and other girly things that i’ll probably wear only twice before deciding that it’s too feminine for me.

Youtube and search for DIY beauty stuff too. Like these.
 


 

*goes into bimbo mode*

The bangs are amazing ain’t it?! It’s hot!

And the curls is like brazziliant! Like i wish my hair would grow longer… like right now coz it’s not long enough to curl! I mean like… bummer!

*goes off bimbo mode*
 


 

Like wtf.

And i’ll drive him crazy complaining about how my hair looks and how i need to get it straightened/curled/dyed, that i need a new look. Girls, don’t be shocked but that’s the only time of the month that i actually buff and polish my nails feverishly like a psychopath.

Other days i’m just plain lazy.

But recently i’m pretty obsessed with my face. Everytime i look into the mirror i see a new spot! I’m getting old wtf. And that stupid beautician in Hartamas made my acne worst. Stupid unprofessional b*atch. FFK queen, late for appointments, do your facial session but at the same time chit chatting on the phone and made my acne worst – now i have really bad scars! Those interested to know the name of the beauty parlor let me know. I will email to you. Don’t go there. I hope she goes bankrupt!

I’m not ever gonna trust that friend of mine. Thanks for recommending the worst place for facial wtf.

Fortunately another friend recommended a new place for my facial and i’m almost cured except for the scars. Now i’m using Dermalite products.

This is before i used Dermalite. Ok, not really coz it was 3x worst then this by the time i quit the previous salon.

Before
 

And this is after 2 session of facial at the new place within 2 months using Dermalite products. Taaa daaa!
 

acne-after
After
 

The last facial i went to, Angela recommended something like an Oxygen mask. It was like pouring acid on to my face. I cried the whole 10mins the mask was on my face! Excruciatingly painful but it worked wonders :). Oi leng ng oi meng wtf.

Next step is to zap away the scars. Hopefully soon before Mr. Bf goes insane. Wtf. I’m not having PMS, i’m just having a quarter-life crisis.

Happy Birthday Dearest Mom

 
It’s mommy’s birthday. Happy Birthday Mom!

She’s going to be 58 today.

Omg, she’s so gonna kill me for telling her age LOL. Hey, i don’t think 58 is old anyways. Mom is more fashionable than me. She’s gone and worn leggings with her long top while i’m still trying to grasp the idea of how leotard-like leggings has become so fashionable. While i admire girls wearing them and looking good wearing them, i still shun the idea of wearing leggings out of the house. Not mom though. She looks so cute under the green top and leggings. God i wanna bear hug her :P.

I always bring her out for a nice dinner in a restaurant but i’m dead, dead broke (coz i gotta save up for my medical expenses and also for our family trip to Bangkok soon) so no dinner this year. A small celebration at home with a nice cake will do i guess.

Mom doesn’t seem to mind. See why i love her? :P

My Future Boutique

 
If i have the money i would open a spanking new boutique. But mind you, it would not be like any other boutiques in town. It would be something special. It would be the talk of town. It would be breaking news. Even more of a news than the embarrassing politics in Malaysia.

My boutique will sell gorgeous and sexy apparels for larger size women. By larger size women i am referring to UK sizes 10 and above. There will also be beautiful clothes for women that is well endowed and with bigger bust sizes. But that is not what makes my boutique different from the rest.

What makes it so different is that my boutique will have place cards and cartoons murals on the walls. The cartoons will be making a parody out of skinny people. Yes, my boutique will pay homage to the real women and make fun of Victoria Beckham clones. (I am saying this because i am jealous of skinny bitches… just so you skinny bitches won’t flame me.)

Damn i am so original.
