~* Celeb's Baby boom!*~

Hi Empresses!

So we've experienced the Baby boom..but this one is far more fabulous! Celebrity Baby Boom! I'm sure they will be so cute and adorable..so..who is expecting??

Ivanka Trump just announced that she is pregnant with Jared Kushner (owner of New York Observer)!

Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon are expecting twins!!

Kate Hudson and Matthew Bellamy (British rocker) can't wait to be parents!

Victoria and David Beckham! I am sooo happy for them..I hope it will be a girl..(I will be so jealous! Victoria's daughter will inherit all of her clothes, bags, shoes.....)

Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem!! (That will be one very pretty or handsome baby!)

Celeb Stylist Rachel Zoe with Rodger Berman are expecting a baby boy! He jokes: "I won’t be surprised if our baby has Chanel diapers, Missoni blankets, and an Hermès bassinet." What??? 

Black Swan Actress Natalie Portman (who also inspires the current runways with ballerina styles!) with Benjamin Millepied! The actress's plan? ""I hope I’ll get to lie in bed and eat popcorn and watch TV for the rest of it"...wouldn't we all want that?? =)

Until then,

stay fabulous!!

~*J.Lo's hairstyles!!*~

Hi Empresses!


So, I watched American Idol yesterday and guess who is one of the judge?? J.Lo!!!! (Yey!!!)


Known for her creativity...here are some of my favorite hairstyles..

A simple ponytail..accessorized with lots of jewelery & a cute shirt! So..if u have already much going on (especially with jewelery and glitter)..just choose a simple hairstyle..to balance it off ^__^





Voluminous hair with headband..this outfit looks flawless because J.Lo matched her hairband + shirt + make up perfectly..& also again.. since it is a smoky look..just choose simple jewelery =)




Save the best for last! This is my favorite look! It's simple & romantic! =) I love how J.Lo matches her soft make up with the cute Fuchsia dress..also her simple hairstyle and jewelery complements the romantic look and doesn't overpower the dress



So..what is your favorite look? Keep me posted!

Until then,
stay fabulous!

*~colors, colors, colors!!!~*

Hi Empresses!!!


So...r u looking for gorgeous nail polish & the ways to keep them "unchipable"?  Well, let me show u my nail collection...

1st..my OPI darlings..=)





So..first of all..to prevent ur nail from chipping, getting yellow and also to give ur nails nourishment..use OPI Nail Envy (Original)..then let it dry for a minute or so and apply ur choice of nail polish..

The first one (from left to right) is a glittery pink and is called "Princesses Rule!"..I really love this color as it is a very soft pink embellished with a glitter effect...but the hard part of the glittery nail polish is that they are hard to get off..but hey! u need to sacrifice for F-A-S-H-I-O-N and B-E-A-U-T-Y..right?? =p

The second one is a glittery red-purple color and is spelled "Let me Entertain you"..I usually use this  color when my nails want that extra attention..as it is a very brave color..and also when I feel sophisticated! =)

The third one is a special edition from OPI and is a glittery blue..it is named "DS Magic"..it is a very pretty and unique color..it goes especially well when u have a nude or light-colored outfit on (especially white)..to make the whole look more cheerful and interesting.

The fourth one is a dark purple..it is known as "Russian Navy"..It's really darrrkkk..so when I feel angry, gloomy, or when I need that extra drive and encouragement..then I usually use it!! =p The negative side of wearing dark color polish is that they leave ur nails a bit dark and dirty..so I usually paint my nails in light-colors..like pink..nude..or even paint them with a transparent finish..

Last but not least is a very very very glittery light-purple..it screams: "Show it and glow it!"..yea u got that right!! =) Since it is so glittery..I use it only as embellishment..for example add a few drop of it with a base of red or hot pink nail polish...or u can also use it as a french manicure tip! =)

Ok...so still haven't found ur soulmate nail polish??? Relax..I have more to come empresses!! ^_^



Here are my other cute little bottles.. =)



Ekhm...so here we go again...

For the base and top coat..I use Revlon Double Twist..it's more efficient..as it's already 2-in-1..so remember what I told u earlier..about the OPI Nail Envy??? Ok..so 1st u apply the OPI Nail Envy..then the base coat..=) It will make ur nail polish last longer that way..=D

The first one is "185..Lilac Pastelle"..it is a purple-pink mix..to me its very barbie-like ..^_^..

The second one is "080..Light"..its a very pale pink..n I usually use it as a base for my French-Mani..=D

The third one is known as "745 Frankly Scarlet"..it's one of my favorite reds..it has a bit of glitter and it is also not too red..it's just perfect!! =)

The fourth one is Skinfood's Hot Pink..it is until now my favorite nail color and brand...it is already shiny from the first coat..it last long..it's easy to apply..n it has a range of pretty, unusual colors..actually the brand is from Korea..but it is unfortunately only available in Asia..I use this color the most..n sometimes I combine it with OPI's "Show it and Glow it!" as a French Mani..Magic! =D

Last, but not least is Faceshop's wine-red "RD 303"..this brand also originates from Korea and therefore also only most available in Asia..=( 

Well..that's all Empresses! I hope u have found ur dream color!!! ^_^


Until then...

stay fabulous!

~*Joy in rainy days!!!*~

Hi Empresses!

How have u been doing? Well, the long weekend we all are desperately waiting for is just one day away!! Cheer up!! ^_^

Anyways...I was walking home from school today and yey! it was raining! Usually I like the rain, but only if I a inside my room, sipping my hot chocolate, watching raindrops falling from the blurry sky..=) So I pulled out my cute umbrella..which looked like this:


So when u open up the “packaging”, pop! an umbrella shows up! Isn’t it cute? I think the cute, little things in our life cheer us up in gloomy situations. So, when u r experiencing hard times, just try to find something that makes u smile. Whether it is a cute umbrella in the rain or a shopping spree after ur break-up. I believe that there is always a rainbow after the rain. =)

How about u? Share ur favorite story (or upload a cute umbrella picture of urs!! =p)

Until then,
stay fabulous!

*~New Vernis Spring/Summer 2011 Colors!!! =^_^=~*

LV introduces new colors this Spring!!!

Hi Empresses!

 LouisVuitton has now new colors for the Vernis line! Excited? Hold on...

The 3 colors are Blanc Corail, Bleu Infinite and last but not least Terre d'Ombre. I personally find those colors a bit gloomy for Spring/Summer, but hey see it on the positive side! Those colors are more neutral and therefore can be more easily matched. Also since they are "Classic" colors, those bags (you will most probably buy =D) will be a timeless and fabulous addition to your closet! Let's take a look of how it will look like in the flawless Alma:

  Now, now ladies (and perhaps some gentlemen? =p) have u decided what ur favorite color is? I think the Blanc Corail is similar to last season Rose Florentine and the Bleu Infinite is similar to Bleu Nuit..don't u think?? O, if u are already deciding to get one Vernis item in these new gorgeous colors, let me inform u that they are available in:                                                                                                         
*Wilshire Boulevard GM
* Alma MM 
*Sobe Clutch
     *Zippy Wallet, Sarah Wallet, Zippy Coin Purse

I called the LV store in SF yesterday and they said that the Blanc Corail and Terre d'Ombre is not yet in store. It will probably be "ready-to-own" by the end of the month, latest.


If the Easter bunny could give u one free wish, which bag and color would you choose? =) Keep me posted guys!!!! ^_^


Until then,
stay fabulous!!!
