Disney Couture.

Okay, so my cousin just introduced me to Disney Couture. I had heard of it before, but I had just assumed that it would a collection of tacky Disney keepsakes. Oh my Hades was I wrong. Stunning collection! And as Little Mermaid fanatic, I am now obsessed with it! Here are some of my favourites:

Shark Jaw Charm Necklace:


Conch Shell Charm Necklace:












Coral Reef Earrings:













Isn't it stunning?!
Now if only I could afford it...

I love this song...

Long White Cloud - Shapeshifter (NZ).
I could listen to it forever.

Get Out!

Great song from Circa Survive's new album Blue Sky Noise. Amazing album as a whole, but this has to be one of my favourites. Circa Survive have such a distinct sound, both Anthony Green's phenomenal voice and the amazing melodies creating the unique ambient rock sound. I had never heard of Circa Survive until last year when I saw them opening for another act. I fell in love when I heard 'In Fear and Faith' from their début album Juturna. Their second album On Letting Go is also full of goodies. Check them out.

Hourglass.

I bought this foundation yesterday and it is AH-MAY-ZING!! You only need to use one pump, it's full coverage without feeling like mud, it has a glow to it aaaaaaand you can use it as a concealer too. Um, perfect. Yeah, it's a little on the expensive side... but honestly, I have never found foundation like this. I've used Natio, Scott Barnes and Stila but they feel thick and slimy compared to Hourglass. I won't be able to buy anything for the next few weeks, but it is so worth it. If you are looking for a gorgeous foundation and don't mind spending a wee bit more, check it out. I got mine from MeccaCosmetica in Wellington. LOVE IT!

Hourglass Veil Foundation.

Losing Control.

Came across this song at my tap class of all places. I really like it. The chorus is wicked.

Timbaland and JoJo - Losing Control

Well...

It has been forever since I posted. I really don't have much to say for myself. Right now, I'm drinking coffee, watching Star Trek VI, recovering from a night on the town with my cousin. Lately I have been hitting the books hard at University. Really not an interesting subject to discuss... well, I do find it interesting which is why I'm studying... but I find that when I try to discuss it with others they zone out and  I'm left rambling about social structures that generate inequality and other criminological issues. But I handed in my first honours essay a few days ago. Big achievement. I almost went insane writing it. Considering I'm usually on the brink of insanity, it doesn't take much... What else? I moved out a few months ago. LOVE my new place. It's my 70's style Aspen ski lodge retreat. And with the weather the way it is at the moment, I couldn't be happier with that description. The only thing I miss is a dryer. Clothes don't dry to well here in the winter. And I HATE damp. But everything else is easy. Shopping, bills, cooking. My flatmate is awesome. We've been friends since we were 5 so we get on really well. I miss my little brother. He moved up north for his degree. Sucks we can't hang out as much as we used to. My older brother has gone to the States for 3 months so I'm totally jealous. Can't wait until this year of study is finito. I'm going to go on holiday. Hopefully Europe. I just need to get out for a bit. Only like a month or so. I'm thinking Greece or somewhere Mediterranean. And so that's me.

Delicious Snack.

I discovered this snack while I was really hungry, but didn't want a big meal... and it had to be something sweet but not too calorie-heavy (I know, not fussy at all...)


Spoon about 3-4 heaped spoons of natural greek acidophilus yoghurt.
Cut up a banana on top.
Drizzle with a thin honey.
(Optional) crush natural cashews on top. 


So delicious.
Fills you up, it's sweet and pretty!
Enjoy!

These Are a Few of my Favourite Things...

I haven't posted in a while. I'm sort of procrastinating. What better way to burn some minutes then talk about some of the things I'm really into right now...


1. Songs: 'Question' - Ladi6, 'Right as Rain' - Adele, 'Dstryr and Dstryr' - Lostprophets, 'On to the Next One' - Jay Z, 'Nothing on You' - B.O.B ft. Bruno Mars 
2. Colours: Purple and grey (especially together), neutrals (really light pinks and golds)
3. Clothes: Leggings and anything with zips (tops, dresses, etc.)
4. Makeup: au natural - either really natural browns and golds or nothing at all! Although for lips I'm liking a sheer red/plum colour (just got a new Benefit Silky Finish lippy in Fruit Cocktail... yummy sheer sparkly plum).
5. TV Shows: Stargate Universe, Doctor Who (absolutely loving Matt Smith), Most Haunted (just for fun), Private Practice (wasn't much of a Grey's Anatomy fan, but caught myself becoming involved in the spin off...), Brothers and Sisters (also just fell into this one, but I like it)
6. Books: Virtual Equality: The Mainstreaming of Gay and Lesbian Liberation by Urvashi Vaid (it is for my research thesis, but I am really enjoying it. So eye opening. Good read too not like complicated academic mush)
7. Tweeting: its just so damn addictive. Follow me!
8. Food: Pea and Ham soup. Actually addicted. It is so, so, so, so good.
9. Drink: It was Lipton Iced Green Tea for a while, but now I'm back to blue Powerade. It looks so unnatural it must be good for you right?


Nine is a good number to stop. I'm running out of things I'm loving. Plus the rugby is on.

Jamie Cullum

I LOVE this cover of Rihanna's Please Don't Stop the Music. I am a bit of a sucker for jazz crooners. But with Jamie's smokey vocals, soft drum beat and gorgeous tinkling on the piano, the song makes for easy listening. Perfect with a hot cup of coffee on a cold Autumn day.

Enjoy!

dailybooth.com

Recently I joined dailybooth.com. It's basically a site where you take a photo of yourself doing whatever you happened to be doing at that particular time (or what you staged yourself doing) and just like twitter, people you follow/follow you and pretty much anyone around the world can comment or post a picture back. It's actually quite a strange experience. I don't know exactly why I joined up. I have 2 followers, one of them is me. To be honest I don't know how I ended up following myself, but my follower count is so pathetic I'd better leave it. It's quite fun to post pictures of yourself and have little snippets of conversation with people half a world away. I mostly post pictures of my make-up looks (although I am quite proud of myself for posting pictures where I am not wearing any make-up which, as those who know me can tell you, is pretty rare). I find these new social-networking sites so intriguing which I guess is one of the reasons I join them (that, and some strange narcissistic need I am fulfilling). It really is a breakdown in boundaries. Social, territorial, you name it... it's broken. On these sites, especially photo sharing ones, there are no territorial constraints, cultural and language barriers don't seem to be an issue. Some people really put their lives out there for everyone to see. I doubt 20 years ago people were sharing their deepest thoughts freely with anyone who cared to see. I think it's pretty wicked that people can connect and converse and be uninhibited by race, nationality, time, language, social class etc. It really is becoming an open world.
