TheRoadNotTaken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear,
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I marked the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
- Robert Frost



Funny how I studied this poem in high school
and never really thought about what it meant.
Now, it just speaks volumes.

NotEnough.

Question:
Love conquers all?
or
Sometimes, Love isn't enough?

LettingInLaVieEnRose


Sabrina Fairchild: Maybe you should go to Paris, Linus. It helped me. Have you ever been there?
Linus Larrabee: Oh yes. Once. For thirty-five minutes.
Sabrina Fairchild: Thirty-five minutes?
Linus Larrabee: Changing planes. I was on my way to Iraq on an oil deal.
Sabrina Fairchild: Oh, but Paris isn't for changing planes, it's for changing your outlook! For throwing open the windows and letting in... letting in la vie en rose.

- Paris according to Sabrina [1954]
Sabrina played by Audrey Hepburn
Linus played by Humphrey Bogart

LucyHalesLBD.

I have been searching high and low for this damn dress!
I'm beginning to think it was custom made for her just for this episode.
In episode 6 of Pretty Little Liars, she wears this gorgeous black dress
with details on the sleeve and a bit on the belt!
Her shoes are by Michael Kors =)

If anyone sees this dress online.. LINK ME!

The Eiffel Tower.

Givenchy&AshleyOlsen


I love how casual and easy this outfit is to pull off!
Almost everyone has denim shorts,
black belt and a black top
(in this case a thin looking rolled up sweater) and sunnies!
Well, the Givenchy bag might take a while to obtain
but for the meantime, I might recreate this look using another oversized black bag =)

Extra love because its worn by Ashley Olsen.
I've loved her since I was 8 <3

Strangers, Again.


Such a beautiful piece from WongFu Productions.
The best way to describe it : It's real.

"The most unfortunate fact about a relationship that doesn't work out, is the inevitable path both parties are on to become strangers. Many relationships follow a general path, through a set of different stages, one that brings two strangers together, takes them through a period of deep emotions and meaningful experiences, then returns them to where they began."
-Strangers, Again.


"I think that.. if life separates us and we end up being in totally different places, we will always remember when our paths align for this period in time..
And I'll be thankful for that and hope that wherever you are, you'll be thankful too. 
And I think... thats the best we can wish for..."
-'Josh' (Philip Wang)

NotLikeTheMovies


Katy Perry  singing "Not Like The Movies" during her California Dreams tour <3
I was blessed enough to see this live!


"I didn't feel
The fairytale feeling, no.
Am I a stupid girl
For even dreaming that I could."

RoyalCoincidence.


Such a coincidence for this Royal Wedding!
Kate and Wills (Duke and Duchess of Cambridge) as Cinderella and her Prince Charming,
Eugenie and Beatrice (Princess' of York) as Drizella and Anastasia.

the dream that you wish will come true.."

BedroomNook.

This little bedroom nook is such a dream.
I posted this up on my tumblr quite some time ago
and after going through my posts,
I fell in love with it again.

Loving Women according to Bob Marley

“You may not be her first, her last, or her only. She loved before she may love again. But if she loves you now, what else matters? She’s not perfect - you aren’t either, and the two of you may never be perfect together but if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice, and admit to being human and making mistakes, hold onto her and give her the most you can. She may not be thinking about you every second of the day, but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break - her heart. So don’t hurt her, don’t change her, don’t analyze and don’t expect more than she can give. Smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad, and miss her when she’s not there.”


- Bob Marley

I'm usually not an orange type of girl.
But for these babies, I will be!

Someone please buy me a house with this gorgeous bathroom! 
I can spend hours doing my make up here everyday!

Lauren Conrad





If I could pick a celebrity BFF, it would definately be Lauren Conrad.

She is such an inspiration! I think it's amazing that she already had the hopes of being a designer and already planned to work hard on achieving that goal even before she was cast for Laguna Beach. 
Although being in the limelight all the time, she manages to be graceful and carry out such great style (just check out that Chanel bag!).

She is definitely on top of the people that I want to meet!

It's here!

OH AT LAST! This blog is FINALLY here. I have wanted to start a blog for the longest time. I had a rough idea of what I wanted to post up here but somehow just lost inspiration.

As a cosmetics enthusiast, I always knew that this blog would contain my inspiration for cosmetics and make up artistry, perhaps some of my work and also to accompany a vlog/beauty channel that I'm getting around to creating. But somehow I thought that, that will never be enough. I thought I had it all figured out. But, there was just something missing. Although I did intend for the blog to showcase make up artistry, I thought it would be boring for it to purely be a blog about cosmetics, reviews, hauls etc. And as much as I LOVE the cosmetics industry, I didn't want to fill up this page all about it.

It wasn't until I re-watched (for the thousandth time) one of my favorite movies of all time ,Marie Antoinette, that I figured out what I wanted to share with the rest of the world!

If you haven't watched the movie, all I can say is that it is VISUALLY STUNNING. Everything is so lavish, colourful, pretty and royal! Everything from clothes, pastries and sweets, interior decorating and location. I LOVED everything about that movie. Of course, the make up back then is totally not my style of make up BUT of course I took into consideration and respect the era it was set in :)

Everytime I watched this movie, I would marvel at everything that was shown on screen and I everything is just so inspiring!

So, that's what I think my blog would be about in addition to all beauty related things I'll be posting up on here. Things that inspire me or find amazing. From time to time, maybe even some music or things that make me laugh :)

Till next time !
