Happy Sunday!  You might have seen me ranting on about my skin on Twitter.  It started last Thursday, my skin has this weird reaction with redness and white bumps on my cheek area around my nose/under my eyes, as well as on my chin, and here and there on the rest of my face, even my eyelids =(.  So I was freaking out and pretty depressed over the last couple days.  I apologize for my rant and missing a post on Friday.  It's just that it has never happened to me before, so I was really scared.  Plus, it's on my face, it's very visible.  I don't work from home, so going to work like that is very uncomfortable.  Anyway, I woke up this morning, it seems like it has calm down a bit, so I hope it'll be better this week.  Because of how horrible I look, I didn't have the courage to take pictures of my face.  So this week is just going to be pure product reviews (and some leftover pictures from last week lol)...

Anyway, let's rewind and see what you might have missed this week =)

Putting My Chiffon Blouse, Cropped Sweater, and Winter Leggings into Action


Last week started off with an outfit idea post featuring few items from my Best Fashion Finds of 2011.  It is nice to show them in action to show how much I enjoy these pieces =).  Read more about them here.

Happy Sunday everyone!  Last night I stayed up till three to change up my layout a little bit.  "What's the difference?", you asked.  "The width is a little wider to allow bigger thumb nails and slide shows on the main page!", I said.  Please let me know what you think about this change.  Do you prefer what it looks like before?  Or do you like the new one better?  I'd like to make my blog more visually appealing, so please help me get there!  Thanks!

Anyway, I'm not too sure if I'm glad it's Sunday, because that means tomorrow I have to get back to work.  This week had been pretty crazy at work.  I stayed late every night to finish a request by Monday.  When I get home I managed to blog, but it's always kind of late at night.  So did you miss any of my posts this week?  Let's rewind!

Gotta love when these are waiting for you by the doorstep
I placed my first order with PinkyParadise.com during New Years because they were having a sale.  As a new lash addict, I want to try some popular lashes available in the Asian market, so I decided to pick up a few from two of the best selling brands: Diamond Lash and Eyemazing.

Pinky Paradise is a online shopping website for colour lenses, accessories, and Asian cosmetics.  They mainly focus on colour lenses, so I ordered all four lenses in the Princess Mimi/Bambi Series, which are produced by the very cute and popular Japanese model Tsubasa Matsukawa.  I also got a pair of pink lenses because they were available in my prescription (they're pretty hard to find).  Visit the haul post for more details!

Happy Sunday everyone!  It has been a very eventful and productive week.  First of all, The Office Chic was officially launched last week on January 8, 2012 (yay).  I'm so excited to be back on blogging, and I can't wait to put more posts up on this blog!  But let's rewind and see what went up on this blog this week =).

OOTD: It's a Sunny Sunday
Since it was sunny out, I would do an OOTD of my Sunday casual wear.  It was my very first "shoot" for outfit of the day.  I made my boyfriend to take these outfit pictures for me, but it was so awkward!  I can't help but laugh during the shoot.  (read more about my Sunday OOTD here.)

It was fun, but weird!  I'm going to try it again today, since the weather looks kind of nice (at least there's sunlight).  So let's hope everything goes well and I could put more outfit and fashion posts up!



Best Fashion Finds of 2011
The fashion version of my Best of 2011 features a few of my favourite purchase during 2011.  These are probably my most-worn clothes lasy year besides my jammies and fleece pants LOL.  (read more about my favourite fashion finds of 2011 here.)

Speaking of clothes, I am trying to figure out how to use more current wardrobe more efficiently because it's been cluttering up.  My goal is to only buy key pieces that are timeless rather than filling it up with clothes that I don't touch often enough.  IMO, the item is worth its price if you get to wear as many times as you pay for it (so $1 each time!).  Is that weird?  LOL.
