Los Angeles & Hawaii 2015

Some of my favourite photos from my visit to Los Angeles and Hawaii in December and January. This is the first holiday I've had in a while where I felt that I've been able to completely, 100% unwind and not let my worries get to me. Plus we did a ton of cool activities like parasailing, swimming with dolphins and an island helicopter flight. Be sure to check out all the best moments in my LA and Hawaii vlogs above.

10 Shopping Tips

My newest video is my ultimate Top 10 Shopping Tips that I live by when it comes to shopping for clothes and accessories both IRL and online.
A summary of my tips are below. Be sure to check out the video for the full details :-)

1 - Before purchasing a clothing item for everyday wear, visualise THREE outfits you would wear that incorporate this new item.
2 - Know your body measurements and clothing measurements.
2B - Carry a tape measure with you.
3 - Buy it knowing that you will wear it soon.
4 - If you have a clothing piece you're hesitant to wear, wear it immediately!
5 - When you're out shopping, wear your best-fitting nude underwear.
6 - If you're considering an expensive designer piece, know if it will be easy to resell.
7 - Check the fabric content before buying an item of clothing.
8 - If you like a 2nd opinion, shop with a knowledgeable and honest friend.
9 - When it comes to online shopping, do as much research on sizing as possible.
10 - If you find something inexpensive that you love, buy another.

If you already use any of these tips, try out any for yourself, or have additional tips of your own I would love to hear about it!

Styling Inside Transparent Bags

I finally finished it! My video for styling inside transparent bags. This took a surprisingly long time (as it does when you're a hyper-perfectionist like me), but I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I did making it!

P.S. As you may know if you follow me on tumblr/twitter (and as you can tell at the end of this video), I've been sick lately plus super busy with some styling assisting work and on top of that working on some of my own shoots. Basically timing has really sucked lately D': I still have like... a backlog of content though?! So I'll do my best to have it ready and posted more regularly asap !! I just wanted to let you know I haven't disappeared or anything hehe. I'm always around on twitter/tumblr/instagram. Hope you are all doing well, see you soon (´◡｀)ﾉ

Matte & Glossy Drip Nail Tutorial

Over the past few months I recieved a bunch of requests to create a tutorial for my dripping nails, so I made this video for you guys. I actually created and uploaded it at the end of last year, but I completely forgot to share it. As in the description of the video, it's not my best work! But I hope showing my tools and technique helps you to achieve the same look if you wish (´▽｀) As for those of you who've been asking me to make some other youtube videos, this idea really excites me and I'd love to give it a shot. Although I'm back at uni now, I'm still going to do my best to find some time to try a few things out for my channel, even if it takes a little while. And speaking of being back at uni - sorry my last few travel posts are taking so long! The last week back at school was a bit crazy, but I should have some things up (including an outfit post) really soon!
