The Nokia 7900 Crystal Prism on eBay »

Hey people, you know the pretty purple Nokia phone that I blogged about a few days ago and some of you have been wanting to buy it? Well you can now! Since we are the kind of girls who want practical phones with classic, silver designs, (largely because we travel between countries a lot and Hong Kong is one of those places where phones are not attached to phone plans, unlike the UK or US,) we have decided to follow in Style Bubble’s footstep and put this Prism up for auction on Ebay (UK). If you are a fun girly girl who wants this phone before it gets released, place a bid here !

Uniqlo UT Project 08 »

Two weeks ago, the new Uniqlo ad in Grazia (a UK glossy tabloid) featuring Chloe Sevigny really caught my eye. I’m not a fan of Chloe’s style, (actually I wonder why people love her style so much,) but I really liked how the black tank top fits her here. Doesn’t Chloe look very casual rock chic? And the other big attraction? The fact that the ad is by Uniqlo means that the shirt is actaully affordable!
Uniqlo’s collaborations with designers to produce capsole collections are usually much talked of on the Internet. But UT Project seems much more accessible to me. UT Project is basically where Uniqlo collaborates with a bunch of artists and designers to make printed T-shirts. Depending on the designer, not only are the print designs different, but even the fitting of the t-shirts is different. You can probably tell from the few pictures of Chloe modelling them.
The most popular (and publicised) t-shirts seem to be the Basquiat t-shirts (-they’re the ones Chloe is wearing in the first two pictures.) I bought the tank top on the left and I love how it’s really long, and it’s got a slit on one side so you can tie it together the way as shown in the ad. It’s going to be one of my lazy-day shirts this summer!
I think the Osamu Tezuka t-shirts are kind of cute. Don’t they look so easy to throw on? I imagine wearing them to hang out at a friend’s house.
But I’m really not a fan of the surfing-looking t-shirts like the one on the right. (A bunch of people back in high school used to wear surfing t-shirts to school everyday and I think I’ve been scarred by them.) And I really don’t know how to appreciate art because the print on the left t-shirt just looks ugly to me.
The long blue shirt on the right is one of the more special designs. And as for the shirt on the left, it didn’t look so pretty to me until I saw it modelled on Uniqlo’s Japanese website. Those blobs of green look just like the blobs of colours I’m trying to add to my wardrobe!
We all know celebrities and ads always make things cooler, so if you want some idea how how to dress-up these ordinary T-shirts from ‘normal’ people, take a look at the images on the Japanese UT website. (Speaking of which, why is the Japanese Uniqlo site so much better and complete than the US and US Uniqlo sites?) It has many girls posing in the tees, giving the tees many different styles -from hipster to cutsy to rock chick to boringly ordinary. Actually, even if you’re not a fan of Uniqlo, you should take a look at how they styled the girls for inspiration!

Remedy For Puffy Lidded Eyes or Eyes With No Defined Crease »

1. Apply a touch of black eyeshadow in the center of the upper lashline.

2. Sweep a taupe or natural color eyeshadow over the crease and slightly above it.
…..(Remember, we’re working with minimal space here…not Cher’s lids! )…..

3. Use an eyeshadow shade that’s lighter on the browbones and lids.

That way, when the light hits your peepers, the highlighted area of the eyes will stand out as the crease appears, well, creased! The upper lids lined with black shadow in the center provides a contrast with the highlighted lid to create more visible lids.

A New Breakthrough In Anti-aging Skin Care, The Secret Is Out! »

A License to Stretch the Truth on Your Age

If you feel like you’ve tried every skin care product on the market and for the most part, are not satisfied with the results, you’re not alone. But, don’t give up just yet…

What’s your real motivation? What solutions are you searching for that brought you here today?

Hi my name is Wendelynn Kohn, thanks for visiting my blog. For me, it was my eyes…

All my life I was told I had beautiful dark brown eyes. Then one day I looked in the mirror and thought, WOW, you look really tired and it’s only 8 o’clock in the morning. What’s different? What’s causing my eyes to look so tired and old? Lines are not it; I don’t have any “crow’s feet”… I stared at the mirror for a few more minutes and said to myself: “That’s it; the bags under my eyes are darker and puffier than ever before.” I put on some extra concealer that morning and went on with the rest of my day, but I kept thinking about it all day long. My eyes didn’t look that bad yesterday morning…?

So that same night, I hit the Internet and started searching. I spent hours on WebMD, trying to find a possible alternative condition, to just simply “getting older”. No such luck! I continued my search and that’s when I found LifeCell. I read every single word on the web site. I saved the site to my favorites and went back the next day and read it again. As I searched for other products, I noticed one important thing… the other products provided little to no real explanation for how and why they worked. For some, LifeCell may actually provide too much information and scientific proof, but for me, that’s what made the difference and made me hit the “buy now” button - NO SECRETS!

LifeCell actually has people postponing and canceling their injection and cosmetic surgery appointments. And, here’s why…

There are critical differences between LifeCell and other products on the market today. We “look old” because of wrinkles, lines, skin blotchiness, age-spots, loss of skin radiance, sagging skin (a big one), “feather” lips, under-eye puffiness (a dead give-away), crow’s feet and thinning lips. From a scientific point-of-view, skin-aging is caused by: free-radical damage, changes in fat content of skin, changes in skin collagen, dehydration, DNA changes, degradation of the elastin polypeptides and certain disorders in the packing of the lipid matrix of the skin.

So the bottom-line… Unless the product(s) attack all these sign of aging and the biological changes associated with getting older, they will not work in the long term. Each product is simply a quick fix for one specific problem. I don’t know about you, but I really don’t want to find myself using 10 - 15 different anti-aging skin care products at once.

Now that leads us to the cost of LifeCell…

Yes, it’s in a higher price range, but when compared to higher end products, it is competitively priced and offers so much more. Use this as a guideline to follow: LifeCell, will replace all of the following for you: 24 hour moisturizer, firming serum, under-eye cream, anti-wrinkle cream, night cream, day cream, age-spot reducer, lip treatment and so on… Ok… Now take a minute and add up the cost of all the products you are currently buying that fall into these categories. How does it compare? Are you satisfied with your results? In the end, most of my clients and prospects, agree… price is not an issue.

How well does it work? From my own personal experience, I started seeing results within 24 hours. I’m going to give myself a few weeks and then I’ll post my photos. I want people to see the dramatic results.

Numerous case studies, personal testimonials, photos and videos providing proven results are available at the website.

LifeCell truly is the world’s first ALL-IN-ONE Antiaging Skin Care Treatment.

It’s a Fast-Acting Anti-Wrinkle-Cream, Firming-Cream, 24-Hour Moisturizer, Age-Spot Reducer, Corrective Under-Eye Treatment, Lip-Plumper and Makeup Base! All you need is this one wonderful anti-aging skin care treatment on your dresser. You can practically throw away all the others and replace all of them with LifeCell!

“Seeing is believing”! Learn more about LifeCell today… I highly recommend it.
