What to wear to the beach?

Hii!! In 9 days, I will be headed off to Thailand. I'm not a beachy type person so I don't really have any outfit to suit the occassion. What kinda beach outfits do people wear to the beach? lol as silly as this sounds I had to google "beach wear". Not really a bikini fan since I feel like I have budges everywhere, only have a set coz I really needed it for a day spa place. Most of the results from the google show flowy dresses, I like dresses but dunno about the flowy bright colored ones. I'll definitely be bringing over shorts and a maxi but just wanted some other outfits so my pics don't look like im wearing the same thing everyday. Definitely, looking for a sun hat.

I did find these shorts at forever new that I bought yesterday. From $69.95 down to $34, another bargain purchase!!

 
My shopping list for this trip:
  • Sun hat
  • Plenty of sunscreen
  • a nice swim suit (if I can find one)
  • flowy dresses

Heading off to Chadstone Shopping Centre today and checking out the Myer one day sale.

Wedding invitations & Bonbonniere Boxes are decided!!

Hello =) I have made some progress! My wedding invitations and bonbonniere boxes have been ordered. The printing company has started printing. It took a while to decide on what I want, knowing me it normally takes me ages coz im so indecisive. In Australia, it's very expensive to get invitation made. I went to a few wedding expos and the invitations there was like $8-10 per card... wayy too expensive for my budget. The fact that I know ppl will end up throwing my invite in the bin made me feel even more stingy. My invitations are from HK, the girl was really nice and communication has been really good. My invites are simple but my bonbonniere boxes are mega asian lol My mum loves the chinese character on wedding stuff, some kinda good luck thing? What's good about this place is the bonbonniere boxes are custom made so it will have our names and wedding date on it.


 This is my invite, the envelope is also a greeny pearl colour.



Bonbonniere Box - on the other side it has our names printed on it. Thinking of doing a candy buffet, so ppl can just take their boxes up to the table and fill it up with whatever lollies they want.

Misty's Diner

Recently went to Misty's Diner after a few friends were telling me how yummy their burgers was. When B and I were trying to find the place, I was suprised where it was located.. right next to a garage lol The service was a little slow, it took about 20mins for us to get our food and I was starving like a marvin. Here are some pics I took inside the Diner. The way they decorated the place was pretty cool.


look!!! there's Bs head lol
 some kinda burger B got
 my California club sandwich
 Curly fries!!! yummo
 Blooming Onions - It starts off real tasty then when it gets cold really really fatty grossness lol

I wanted to take more photos inside but didn't want to look like a freak. As I was taking these pics I was already sneaking around.. you might ask why? who knows lol I always feel like a criminal taking photos.

Kookai Clearance

The other day I decided to stop by the Kookai clearance. Heard the sales weren't that great but went any way. It was at a  warehouse type place and everything was everywhere. They had tables in the centre with boxes of clothes, to find anything you will need to dig through it. I love treasure hunting lol Around the room was racks of dresses. Managed to get 2 singlet tops for a total of $28!!!


 This one was for $13
and $15 

Mighty happy with my purchases, I had to dig and dig for find these guys lol

REVIEW: MISSHA Perfect Cover #23 & swatch

Finally received my Missha BB cream I bought from ebay around 2 weeks ago. I have used this for a few days, I must say I am impressed. At the start when you put it on, it does give you a gray cast but that does go away after 20 seconds you wouldn't even notice it anymore. Coverage is good, pretty much covers my uneven skin tone as well as acne scars. I like to put it on and then set it with powder. I'm currently using MAC mineral loose foundation, not the best powder to be using to set the BB cream but it will do for now. Once you set it with powder, it should last the whole day. This might sound gross but sometimes I go gym after work with make up still on and it pretty much stays in tact but then I don't really sweat like a pig so it might be different for everyone lol

Overall, really impressed and definitely buy again.


On the left we have Garnier BB cream in light and the right is Missha perfect cover #23. It is a little hard to tell over my mobile phone camera but the Garnier BB cream has a yellowy tone to it whilst the Missha BB cream has a grayish look to it. Garnier BB cream is a lot light which is reflected in its coverage. I like to finish off both with a powder because it gives it more color and also helps set the bb cream.

Hope this helps anyone who is deciding between the two.
