I love the Rockettes and I know I can never be one! lol In honor of National Lipstick Day, I'll share to you  (for those who don't know yet) the red lips secret of the Rockettes. with half-Filipino Rockette, Christine Sienicki, and her red lips of course! The Rockettes always wear red lipstick. And I found out that most of them wear MAC Red or Russian Red. Some uses MAC Ruby Woo. To increase its longevity: 1. They fill in their lips with a lip pencil. Most use MAC Brick or Cherry. 2. Apply lipstick. 3. Top lipstick off with a clear sealer. Most use Cosmetically Sealed Sealed with a Kiss . So now you know the 'Secret'! You have enough time to be a Rockette for Halloween or just add the look for the Christmas festivities this year! What is your favorite lipstick?

This jet lag is not fun and I'm in need of something to perk me up. To tire myself and hopefully go to bed earlier, we walked around the neighborhood. Britain in Bloom is the largest horticultural campaign in the United Kingdom. This year is its 50th Anniversary. The winners for the competition will be announced in September. While walking, I've noticed these blue round signs on some of the houses. Apparently, these are historical landmarks. And after some Lebanese food (they have a lot of them here!), we also decided to walk home and burn those calories. In the corner of our street is a flower stand which is literally called "The Flower Stand". My fiance got me a bunch of pink long stemmed roses and eucalyptus. And since I don't have vases yet, I decided to use these tall glasses for the living room and recycle the wine bottles for the kitchen. These flowers have indeed ...

Having lived near Central Park in New York City, I am so happy that Hyde Park is not far from our flat. This reminds me of Boathouse! I would love to have tried their summer drinks  but too jet lagged to do so.  will def try the boats next time!  no fence = more fun I thought it said: Please don't walk on the Memorial or in the water. Ooopsss! lol Reminds me more of the carousel in Bryant Park in NYC. I love rock art. It has a calming effect on me. I got lucky to see this art installation during our walk in Hyde Park.   Chilean architect Smiljan Radić has designed the fourteenth Serpentine Pavilion. Open until 19 October.  A semi-translucent, cylindrical structure that resembles a shell and rests on large quarry stones,  this year’s Pavilion occupies 350 square metres of the Serpentine’s lawn  and is home to a...

It seems like yesterday when I left the Philippines with hopes to have a better future. And after 7.5 years of stay in New York, now I'm here in London. It was a pretty tough decision I must admit. But the opportunity to live in a 3rd continent is rare  and I had to take it. It was so hard to leave my family, friends and career behind. But hey, USA! I'll be back soon before you know it! I remember my arrival in Los Angeles, CA when I moved to US. The immigration officer thought I was a real "Princess"  and let someone help me with my luggage! And Social Security Administration gave my SSN via phone. The perks of being named "Princess" started to be fun! (Thanks Mom & Dad! I love you!) And my move in the UK is rather quite lovely! (in a Brit accent of course!) I saw the immigration officer's eyes perk up  as he saw my name in the system. He said that I'm surely living up to my name with a smil...

2 years might have passed since I read the trilogy of Fifty Shades of Grey and they maybe in the basement now for storage--- but that doesn't mean I already forgot about the books. I might be personally happier if the movie had came out sooner but oh well! At least the sneak peak is out now. But damn we still have to wait for Valentine's Day 2015! After the teaser came out on July 20th, the official trailer is out today! Teaser Official Trailer Are you still excited to see this movie or the excitement of the book has been long gone?

Now you can have RED NAILS, not just RED SOLES! Today is the launch of Christian Louboutin Nail Polish. Back in 1992, surveying one design from his third signature footwear collection, Christian Louboutin was dismayed that the actual shoe wasn’t as colorful and compelling as his original sketch, especially underneath. And so he snatched a jar of nail varnish from an assistant, who howled in protest, and his famous red soles were born. The ROUGE LOUBOUTIN was exclusively launched in Saks 5th Ave New York City Flagship Store today with the Louboville displays. taken at Saks 5th Ave Flagship Store one of the Louboville displays at Saks 5th Ave This will be available officially for sale on August 6th but is already available in Saks 5th today. The entire 30 shade collection will launch on August 31st. The 16-faceted bottle, produced by Pochet, has its edges smoothed with a hand-held flame. It takes 22 weeks to make each bottle an...
