Face Of The Day: Scarlett Johansson

Via Nars Cosmetics

Scarlett Johansson at the White House Correspondent Dinner

WHAT: Makeup artist Fabiola used the following products on Scarlett:

*PRO-PRIME Eyeshadow Base
*Alahambra Eyeshadow Duo
*Bali Single Eyeshadow
*Orgasm Blush
*Chihuahua Lip Gloss

Baby Pink + Baby Blue .... Seasonal selection!!!!

I dress up according to my mood particularly as I am quite impervious to the sudden weather change!!  That also explains why I am having a cold and cough now .... :P


I wouldn't say that my yesterday's buy of Proenza Shouler yellow clutch is impulsive since I longed for their cross-body messenger for quite some time already.  However, admittedly, I am also darn good at making excuses and DH has to view it as a defensible and acceptable behavior once a while!! ^O^ 


This yellow clutch is my first "yellow" bag and to make its debut impressive, I thought something fun and springy ensemble would do better than warm color palette .... We shall see it later!


Some of you already saw my video on FB about how to cook Chinese Beef Noodle soup and I said "Invest a good pot is worth an-hour-less standing in the kitchen"!! hahahah.... Here I found you a pair of want-to-cook-more Le Cruset pots!!

Don't you feel like sitting your new-born in it..... I am sure it is quite sturdy!! :P

Another pair of blue and pink......

(both pictures taken from SPUR magazine)

 Pinky-Peachy + Blue

Abby's ODJ. 

The peachy shirt and blue ruffle skirt is from Crew Cut (J Crew), and the skirt is sold-out on line.

I didn't pick that argyle patterned tights for her but it is impressive that she knows about the whole COLOR harmony. :) 

This is yet another pink + blue outfit = gorgeous!!

Top: Diesel, Rachel Roy bustier, HM shorts: picture taken from NYLON.

My ODJ.

So I thought I can do light pink and light silver ensemble (... kind of a tint of blue hue in it)!!

1. Top: 
Sanctuary pink w/ mini ruffle tank
HM floral bustier 
HM lace cropped jacket
2. Bottom: 
IRO high waist front pleated pants
3. Accessory:
Sonia Rykiel pour HM striped tights 
Proenza Shouler (PS1) Yellow clutch 2010
4. Shoes:
Mission multi-colored espadrille 

I was trying to show that YELLOW stripes on my tights

and to echo my PS1 yellow clutch! haha...

Make good use of both your closet and wear the clothes you kept for more than a couple seasons as many times as you can and then .... ......

donate them!!

Nick Verreos celebrates Yozmit's Birthday at Saint Felix West Hollywood

Miss Yozmit Birthday DIVA!
Giving Eye: Yozmit, Saint Felix West Hollywood

Last Tuesday, on Cinco de Mayo (May 5Th) was my very good friend Yozmit's Birthday. Yozmit is an artist, singer and performer and all around DIVA!-- she even performed in front of MADONNA, for her Birthday last year! Yozmit Couture: Performance Gown

We celebrated at Saint Felix, a bar/lounge right in the "heart" of West Hollywood! Being that it was Cinco de Mayo, I just knew West Hollywood would be a mess! But I didn't realize HOW MESSY:It was like a Saturday night! Yozmit lives and performs mainly in NYC but was in the West Coast visiting a friend in San Francisco and decided to make a "Birthday pit stop" in LA. Miss Yo: Yozmit in Nikolaki "Vintage" silk polka dotted cowl neck jumpsuit, Dec 2000, notice her SKY heels (like Madonna's from "Nothing Really Matters")

I've known Yozmit since Fashion Design School--yes, we both attended the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising back in the day...She was Lady Gaga BEFORE Lady Gaga was FOUR; always giving COUTURE, fashion with a capital "F" and Vogue Italia Editorial...even if it was 3 in the afternoon! So I made the drive out for two reasons: To say "Happy Birthday" to my old friend, and B) To see her outfit! She didn't disappoint, featuring TWO outfit changes in the period of an hour! Her first: A black plunging-neck mini dress/tunic knee-high blue suede stacked heel boots, a purple belt and a fabulous "crown" worthy of a Peruvian Princess...or... a very Gay Mad hatter from 'Alice In Wonderland" , here in her second outfit...

Many of her friends came out to celebrate, including "Underwear and Swimsuit King" fashion designer Andrew Christian, who is actually opening his store right next to Saint Felix on Santa Monica Blvd; fashion designer Peter Cruz (who has been designing for Kimora Lee Simmons and her line) and Artist, Illustrator and Photographer Miguel Angel Reyes.V Necked: Fashion Designers Nick Verreos, Andrew Christian and Peter Cruz, Saint Felix West HollywoodBrothers From Other Mothers: Avi Ivan (love the Maria Callas T-shirt) and Nick Verreos, Saint Felix, Yozmit Birthday
Cuddling Couture: Yozmit and Miguel Angel Reyes, Saint Felix West Hollywood
I only stayed for about an hour since I had to go back to my "Nick Bat Cave" (I had a lot of work to do). But, I hear that Yozmit and Miguel Angel Reyes kept the party--and impromptu photo-session--going, at various West Hollywood bars. Happy Birthday Miss Yozmit!

Something NEW, Something OLD, Some grow WISER, and Some grow UP!!

Weekend is dedicated for family!! Hope you all had a fab. Mother's day!!

I said that I don't normally wear sweat pants or yoga pants and sneakers in public unless I was just stepping out of the gym. 

Why did I mention this?

Ah~~ On Saturday, we took kids to a playground and DH can't stop  nagging about my inappropriate ensemble.....

He goes: "why the blazer, why the boots....... you look like you are going to work!!" 

I answered: "I don't know that we end up taking kids to the playground. Besides, they are the ones playing in the playground NOT ME!! I will be sitting aside watching and occassionally I might jump in the sandbox or push them for the swing!  ^O^

Blue dress, Plastic Island boyfriend blazer, gold tone floral tights, Moschino cheap n' chic teal ruffle boots, Forever21 gray braided belt.

Then you know what happened on Sunday?!!! We went to SF city and did some shopping at Barney's for their last day purple GC event!! 

I wanted a Proenza Schouler bag in Yellow but since Barney's long sold out already, I bought the clutch instead. 

What about DH?

heh... then it is my turn to nag about how sluggish his outfit looks!! He wears white sneaker and a shrunk sweat pants that he had to pull it down a little bit so it won't look awkward on him. Then there is this wrinkled shirt he wore underneath a blazer he tried out at Barney's.... MAN~~ it is a total disaster!! He finally realized that his outfit doesn't quite go w/ the ENVIRONMENT......the high fashionable Barney!!! ^O^ He took off his slouchy shirt and tucked underneath the stroller...........hahahahhah..........that's really hilarious.  Anyway, he bought Woolrich slouchy blazer for himself. Something that he would look dapper in it!!

We thought it will rain hard in SF city...but it turns out the weather is quite sunny and bright!!!

Ta da~~ 

My Proenza Schouler Clutch 2010!!

A modeling picture w/ my new baby soon be followed!!!

Have a cozy Monday!
