It’s been a while since I did a girly post. I would like to confess that I actually come from a family of shoppaholics. I have been fortunately or unfortunately, whichever way you would like to view it, raised by parents who love to shop. On one hand great but on another that’s just bad because then i keep having more and more stuff, to the point i don’t know where to keep them. This is related how? Well, I just want to share on the three must haves that any girl would need. Since I started going for castings again, I always get this from the casting agents. Come dressed smart casual. I never understood that. To be frank I always thought I had reasonable sense in fashion. It wasn’t only till recently, I realised I don’t! Shame on me. Most of the clothes I have are those funky types which are great for a one time wear and never for another time. I didn’t have basic stuff in my wadrobe, making it hard to dress myself well.  So anyways lets share a lil 101 on what I’ve learnt. The 3 must haves in every girls closet. Black is always classic, stylish, elegant, sleek and you can never go wrong with it. It’s great for any mood, time or date. Reason I’m stating all the following apparels as black is because that is basic. Always make sure you have at least one good slip on skirt.

Then make sure you have at least one if not two good Lil black dress. You’ve heard of the book and no this is not made up.

You have to love Zara for their simplicity in clothes. These two dresses are under the label Zara Basic and man are they basic. I love them :) You can’t go wrong at all. They weren’t terribly pricey either. Just shy over a 100 ringgit. Not too bad for a dress you can keep all the time and never have it out of fashion.

Every girl should have a lil black dress. You will never know when you may need it.  Finally, always check on the list that there must be a pair of black pumps. I just love saying that. Pumps. Or as how the ‘inspector Clouseau’ in the Pink would say. Puuummps. Bwahaahha. cracks me up. Ahemm, yes all girls need a pair of good looking black puumps. And I just had to show.. cause I’m so proud of these two black beauties.

I got this from Zara at a wonderful markdown. Used to be around RM300 plus but when I got it was only at RM139. ooooohhh Happppyyy!! And I can’t wait to wear this baby. Ahh

This pair I got from Topshop. I can’t recall the price. My reasons for getting these two is because of the closed toe part of the shoe. See I share most of my shoes with my mom. And all her high heels are either open toe or strappy or wedges. Her pumps from her working days are too small and the minute I pop my feet into them I’m in ouch land. 

Only thing I didn’t manage to get a lesson on was buying a top. But as long as you the bottom covered – as in covering you up or settled, hehe – then it’s easier to figure out the top half of your wadrobe. 

I’m not a fan of makeup. And I do not usually right about it. So I’m going to categorise posts like these under bimbette :P If anything at all I hate how us girls have no choice but to use it at times, because the reality is that it does enhance one’s features. I’m such a tomboy… yeah I know. I squeal at the fact that I have to apply mascara on to my eyes. I’m a makeup artists nightmare :P I’m not that troublesome of course, I just dislike mascara. I dislike it for the very fact that I have to spend a number of moments from my time just to apply the gooey stuff on to my face. I dislike the fact that I the make up my clog up my pores and cause more pimple problems which I don’t need. I dislike the fact that you need to experiment with it a lot until you get it right. And most of all I dislike it because I’m terribly poorer now because of it. Even so with what I want to do… I have not much of a choice but to use it..Ah well.. The only makeup that I do enjoy using though are eyeliners and lipgloss/lipbalm.  These are a must have for me in my bag or at least if i were to put on any make up at all.. Usually a bit of lipgloss will suffice. Last week, I had to stock up on some eyeliner before Ismail started. These are my main makeup items now in the bag.

Anyway, I went to buy my favourite brand for eyeliners… MAC.. sad to say though I think MAC eyeliners are just not mean to stay with me.. for I have no lost 2 of my favourite MAC pencil eyeliner :( Yeah I’m terribly upset.. RM70 down the drain.. sigh sigh.. But what I would like to share with you girls out there who are searching for a good eyeliner.. I want to thank my Tai Ka Che Min Li who is teaching me how to do make up stuff to my face hahah.

This little wonder is by Stila Cosmetics. What I love about this piece right here is that there are three parts to it. You have the two ends where one tip is the eyeliner which is waterproof too. The texture of the pencil is very very smooth, so it just glides on your eyelid. At the other end you have the smudge stick ( at least that’s what I call it), that allows you to smoothen out your eyeliner. In the secret middle compartment, twist it and ta-dah you have a white highlighter. Absolutely great for an on the go pencil for your eyes. The damage of my wallet.. RM98. But i think it should last me for a while.
