The Princess's 21st X stylexstyle shoot BTS X Salon Vim X Glitzy Fingers X Adverts- Texas Red, Unlabelled, Vogue Avenue

Wow. The title for this post's such a mouthful. 
I've been so busy with internship that I've kinda lost track of time. It's been more than 2 weeks since I last blogged and I'm honestly not happy about it at all. There are so many things that I wanna say but there's always a time for it so we shall wait.

My life isn't that exciting at the moment. I just don't have time for almost anything. Not even to rest. I'm so exhausted that I can fall asleep at almost anywhere. Even at Ashleigh's 21st birthday party!:( I wasn't only super late for it, I was asleep almost the entire time!! Poor Ashleigh, I'm so sorry :( Fai said that I slept so soundly I didn't even know someone had accidentally hit me. Hahaha

Anyway, I'm going to keep this post as short and sweet as possible so that I get a little more rest tonight. I have to be at Sentosa tomorrow morning at 10.30am for work!:( I hope the event ends early so that I can spend the rest of the day lying on the beach doing nothing or sleeping. hehehe

Back to what I was talking about- The Princess's 21st Birthday.
I've only been to two of Ash's birthday parties and I can safely say that I love her parties because she'd always make sure that everyone's appropriately dressed. By which I mean shirt and tie for the guys, and pretty dresses for the girls. I share a similar liking for the dress code because it's that one night where everyone's forced to look like they're a part of Justin Timberlake's music video. hehehe

Ash and I have only been friends for a year plus? We met while we were both still working at A&F. What I really like about her is how she's real, super down to earth and she always have a way to make me laugh. I guess we've already been through some up and downs along the way but I'm glad that we've made it through. Also, I'm super proud of how much she has changed and grown into a lady (or a princess) over the past one year. Cheers to everlasting friendship! hehehe
A happy girl is a pretty girl indeed!
I love you bbgirl. Looking forward to our special date ;)

styleXstyle shoot BTS

It's always a lot of fun being a part of a shoot that's different from what I usually do. You see, at a blogshop shoot, the main objective is just to take pretty pictures of the apparels/products while racing against time. I'm not saying that I hate it, cause if I do, I wouldn't still be doing it would I? I love blogshop shoots because the poses are always systematic and it makes me feel really comfortable and confident. However, it doesn't allow me to experiment and improve on my poses. Therefore, whenever an opportunity to shoot for something different arises, I'd definitely jump on it!

Thank you Sharon for inviting Mae, Val and I to be a part of styleXstyle's very own eshop! http://shop.stylexstyle.com/ I had a lot of fun during the shoot simply because I was surrounded by a team of really nice and inspiring people. It's always super awesome to work with such a supportive team/crew. Check out styleXstyle eshop and discover looks that have already been put together for you. Once again, thank you styleXstyle for the feature and I hope to work with you guys again soon!^^

(I know this post sounds like it was done in a rush. But that's right!!! I honestly don't have enough time but I hate to leave my blog stagnant so I'm trying my best to update it as and when I can. I'm sorry and I hope you guys understand. I'm trying...)

Let's get the pictures to do the talking ;)
hehehe. No, I'm not shy (in other words, paiseh) to say that I am proud of us. Go #TeamGushcloud!
Some behind the scenes pictures. Jouir!:) 
Surprisingly, I wasn't nervous for the shoot at all. Maybe because I've been in such situations quite a few times in my life already, hence I'd came pretty prepared? Also, it's most probably because Sharon was such a sweetheart. She was so supportive and encouraging that I didn't feel nervous. Instead, I was filled with enthusiasm and I couldn't wait to #werkit. hehehe
I love how their stylists put things together! So fresh and unique.
With the gorgeous mastermind behind styleXstyle and my fellow blogging mates <3
With the team behind styleXstyle. You can already tell how nice they are from this picture right? >.<

Lately, I've only gotten about 3 days off from internship and I'd spent the last 2 days pampering myself. (Well, not really because I still did a few shoots before the "pampering" sessions) I got my hair done yesterday at Salon Vim. This time I took out the green and replaced them with slightly ashy-lilac-blonde streaks that's rather ombre looking-ish? I wanted something much more extreme but Sham didn't go for it because he knows that it isn't good for my hair. I trust him with my mane and if he says no, it's a no. But I'll try to convince next time to give me what I want. hehehe. 

So here's my new color!!! I took out the green simply because too many people are doing it and I just really want to be special *cries*.. I know I sound like some selfish child but seriously, I want special hair. SPECIAL!!!! Okay, I'm just super tired now and I'm talking rubbish. 

Well, as always, I would leave my hair in Sham's hands and he'd never fails to do magic! I've never been a fan of ombre hair but I LOVE what he did to mine. He's such a talent. I can't wait to see how it fades ;) And I definitely can't wait for my next visit. (I do miss my turquoise/green hair though)
Book an appointment with Salon Vim!

Next, I'd spent another off day getting my nails done!!! After what's been forever, I decided to pluck up my courage and do Gelish again. This time at Glitzy Fingers! They may sound familiar and that's because they're actually Rachel's nail sponsor! I've always admired her nails and I was super happy when she introduced me to Belle from Glitzy Fingers. Belle was super professional, and she's so genuine and down to earth! Plus, she did my nails in just an hour which is really fast and perfect for me since I don't have much time to spare.

I went for a pretty straight forward design with all my current favourite hues- Black, White and Gold. Look carefully and you'll see a tiny seashell. So kawaii eh?! Overall, I am really pleased with Glitzy Fingers and I am impressed with Belle's professionalism. If you're thinking of getting your nails done, Glitzy Fingers's a place that you should seriously look into ;)
With Mother's Day just around the corner, bring your mom along and she'll be entitled to 50% off Gel Mani from 1st to 11th May!! SUPER WORTH IT! And it's such a great way to spend some quality time with mommy eh?

Glitzy Fingers is located at People's Park Centre (Chinatown) #03-58. It's directly opposite the third floor escalator. Call them at 8100 7353 to book an appointment! If you have an queries about the pricing, do feel free to contact them as prices vary for different designs.

Alright!!! I'm done with this post! Hip hip hoorayyyyyyy! I know it's not much but at least you know that I'm dying to get my normal life back. I'm still working on 2 posts that I think you'll like a lot. But I just need time :( Sighhhh... we shall see how things go over the next few days. AND.... Anyone going for Disclosure? hehehe. That's something I'm desperately looking forward to ;)

Right, that's it folks. Thank you for reading:) Countdown to 11th July for me please?

xoxo,
Eunice Annabel

1) Texas Red
Texas Red is an online store based in Singapore which specialises in fashion for girls with wild hearts! I've always been impressed with them since the day I set eyes on them. What's there not to like about Texas Red? I find it hard to pick just one favourite item cause everything just looks so darn good on their site! They ship worldwide so everyone can get your hands on their goodies no matter where you're situated at ;)

Without further ado, here are my picks!
Serenity Midi Skirt in Wine
I did a short feature of this skirt on my Instagram a few days back and received a lot of compliments about it. Everyone was asking where it's from and finally, I'm revealing the secret! It's from Texas Red! Sure there are tons of midi skirts available in the market but none like this one. It has such an awesome quality that it looks as though it was taken straight off a rack at TopShop or something. Highly recommend this piece if you're a midi lover like me!^^

High Hopes Slit Dress
Yeah, yeah, yeah... I'm not afraid to say that I LOVE sexy dresses okay? I love cut outs, low backs, high slits. I think they're all so damn interesting and I actually like how I DARE to wear them all. hehe. Adding this new baby into my collection of fabulous party dresses. This high slit dress is super comfy and gives an illusion of longer legs. YUMS!

2) Unlabelled
Working with really established shops makes me super excited all the time! Unlabelled isn't just your typical blogshop. They're a fashion boutique that specialises in edgy, yet sophisticated and trendy apparels that almost anyone can wear. You can also find them physically at 42 Haji Lane, Level 2. When I was approached by them to get this ad done, I was so spoilt for choice. I wanted almost everything on their site because everything's either really unique or super versatile. Here are my picks^^

Caged Dress
Another sexy dress in my bag. hehe. I love how modest-looking this dress is from the front while it shocks people with it's intricate details at the back. This is a stunning yet comfortable dress that would be perfect for (obviously) a party or a sexy dinner date ;) Now here's what you call an update on a Little Black Dress.

Asymmetrical Wrap Skirt in Black
Ooooo-whooo!! I finally own my very own pair of asymmetrical skirt and I am lovin' it to bits. This is such a perfect twist to a classy midi/maxi skirt. I love how it makes everything and anything look good. It's easy to wear and without a doubt, is super comfy too. Not just that, it's of really excellent quality. I am impressed and you can be sure that I'll be wearing this pretty often. hehe

I'd also picked their silver clutch which I've featured on my IG!:)
So much monochrome loving going on here.

Gerine Lattice Midi
I wore this beautiful and stunning dress to the Dr.Beats Solo HD headphones launch event a few weeks back. It's such a sophisticated, yet sexy and stunning dress that possibly steals all the limelight. hehehe. A midi dress like that says "Pay attention to me!" and that's exactly what you'll need if you're going on a date with someone special.

Garden Corset Dress
Hello beautiful dress. I've been pretty into monochrome lately but this dress is an exception. First of all, the colour is STUNNING. I love this shade of blue hence, I must get this dress. Secondly, the flowers on it contrast super nicely with it. And lastly, it comes with a sexy corset detail, what's there not to like about it? Such a perfect dress for a summer vacation!

My First Ever Nail Sponsor: NAILSY X Advert- Pinned Up Closet

NAILSY
My First Ever Nail Sponsor
Ang Mo Kio Ave 6, Blk 716 #01-4028b 
Singapore 560716

Hello girls! So everyone's been asking me why I haven't gotten my nails done for so long or why I don't have a nail sponsor. Well, I'm gonna finally address it and introduce you to my VERY FIRST nail sponsor!^^

Well, I haven't gotten my nails done for really long due to filming. We aren't allowed to paint them or basically change how we look at all. That's also another reason why I haven't dyed or trim my hair at all. The reason being, some times we shoot the SAME scene on DIFFERENT days or different locations. And that time apart could even be up to weeks. And ask yourself, what if I had my nails painted in the first week and they were gone in the next week? Wouldn't that be a flaw in the movie?

It's okay if you don't get it cause I didn't get it in the beginning either. HAHA. The point is, I haven't pampered myself to a manicure or pedicure for almost 4 months now!!! So the moment I was approached by Nailsy for this sponsorship, I'd jumped at the opportunity. I was so happy to finally be able to head down to their shop and prettify my nails. hehehehe  

As shown in my Instagram picture below, I got a Gelish Bejeweled Houndstooth design on black base. I know it is really different from what I would usually get but I really wanted to try something new and it's already the Winter season, so its a must to stay in the Christmasy trend. hehe
Anyway, in case you're wondering, Nailsy is a pretty young start up business owned by Sharon, my manicurist (the owner of Nailsy). I was so amazed to find out that she's SO YOUNG and already super independent. The plus point about her? She's SUPER NICE and REALLY FUNNY. We became friends immediately after my session was done. In fact, I'd put all my trust into her while deciding on what to design to go for. After all, she is the expert so I literally just sat back and relaxed while she was busy working on my nails.

And the place was really comfortable too! Here's some pictures of how it looks like on the inside. It may be small but it feels really cosy. What I love so much about it is that homely feel I got while I was there. With Sharon's humility and sense of humor, I felt super at ease getting my nails done.
Most importantly, in case you're wondering, Nailsy is located at 
Ang Mo Kio Ave 6, blk 716 #01-4028b 
Singapore 560716

It's a cosy little shop that looks like this! How cute is that?? Looks like a mini getaway club house.
Finally, I have pretty nails now! Goodbye to boring plain unpainted nails. Even though my nails may not be as strong as before due to constantly applying Gelish in the past, I'd still decided to go for Gelish once more this time. This is simply because Sharon assured me that she will be very careful with taking care of my nails. That really put me at ease so I can't wait to come back again soon for another round. Probably for an X'mas or CNY design this time ;)

For now, I really love how versatile my nail art design is. Everyone who've seen my nails are in awe with how much bling there is on them. HAHA. All thanks to Sharon for being really generous with beautifying my nails with lots of blings. hehehe
If you would like to visit Nailsy for your next manicure or pedicure, simply make an appointment with Sharon by contacting her at 9147 6181. 

For updates on monthly promotions, simply text her at the same number to constantly be updated! 
You don't wanna miss out on the next Nailsy promotion coming your way this Chinese New Year starting from 1st December onwards! Check the banner below for more details ;)
Can't wait for more manicure sessions, the design possibilities are endless! I'm already planning what to do next. hehehe! And that's it for now guys, its time for me to turn it cause it's already like 12PM and I have school later at 9AM :(

Thanks for reading!
xoxo
