Quick Nail Post: China Glaze Hunger Games Riveting and Electrified Gradient

Hello my sweethearts~ I'm just going to take a quick break from some make-up homework and write up a quick nail of the week post for you guys. During my stay at Washington, I had these nails on:

The below pic is taken from my phone, so the color is a bit off. Just wanted to show you guys a fuller picture of what this mani looks like (:

It's a sweet and simple glitter gradient with two China Glaze colors I got from their Hunger Games collection last year: Riveting and Electrified. Riveting is a gorgeous deep orange filled with sparkling gold bits that shimmer like crazy! I only used one coat of Riveting because it's such an opaque polish already! As you can probably tell from the below pics:

1 coat, I swear! Look at the gorgeous shimmer :D

 And here is a blurry pic with flash to show you how much shimmer is in here! You can also tell from the bottle that this polish sparkles like CRAZY under direct light! So gorgeous :3

I've gotten so many compliments on my nails already, but honestly it's the polish. Glittery and gorgeous, not to mention very smooth and easy to apply AND LASTS SUPER LONG! I'll definitely be doing more glitter gradients because they're so simple but eye-catching! And it makes people think I spent lots of time on my nails xD

Okay, that's it for the quick post~ I'm about to continue doing my homework now! Hump day tomorrow, hang in there, sweethearts :P
Love,

Cute Affordable Online Shop: Miako~

As you all know, I'm a sucker for fashion. Especially inexpensive and pretty clothes! But sometimes, these stores don't have much selection to develop your style with. This is when I stumbled upon Miako! Miako is a
"A cute online shop, by an asian-lover owner, who wishes to help anyone to get anything they want from Asian countries. 
We know that in places like Japan or Korea, there are a lot of interesting things difficult to get in other countries. So here, at Miako's you can get anything you want at the lowest price!"

Their layout is adorable, pink, polka dots, and cute little animals! :D Also, very easy to navigate. And, not to mention, they have free shipping! Some stores only provide free shipping to orders $50+, but Miako offers completely free shipping, how convenient~

Miako has a huge selection of clothing including this leopard shirt which caught my eye:

For only $13!!!! No wonder it's all sold out!

They also have really cute dresses too! *o*

Only $20!

Omg, you do not know how many times I've tried to use Taobao and fail because of the shipping and all the other complications, now finally a cute asian clothing store~ I'll definitely be shopping here more often, and if you guys have any questions or concerns, feel free to email them, they're SUPER FRIENDLY! Which makes me love them even more :P 

Alright sweethearts, go ahead and check them out, I'll see you guys in my next post :3

Love,

Casual With a Touch of Edge~ Featuring Michael Kors Cowlneck Shirt :3

Hi everyone! :D I'm in a really good mood today because 1) I volunteered 2) I got my paycheck 3) I practiced piano so I feel productive 4) I talked to 哥哥 and 5) I have a post to publish today! WHEEEE.
Anyway, hyperness aside, I want to share this outfit with you guys. I like it because it has contrasting colors, lace, pleather, and studs! YUMMM :3

Pleather pants with knitted panels inside the legs. I've had these for a bit now, and they're starting to stretch out at the waist so I HAVE to wear a belt now ): But oh well, I still like them! Makes me feel badass :D And I have to apologize because I cut off all the tags on these because they were bothering me, so I can't tell you what brand/where they're from D: SORRY!

I really love the cowl neck style of this shirt because it adds lots of dimension and depth to your look without having to layer tons of stuff over it. And plus, this shirt has triangular and circular studs on the shoulders! :D Loooove it :3 It's also quite a thin material so you can wear it all year round!

Loool, and I wore blue earrings because I wanted to match it with the blue cami I had underneath xD

Top - Michael Kors (Size M if anyone is wondering. A bit loose and baggy on me still.)
Jewelery - Wet Seal (Bracelets are from this haul)
Leopard Ring - F21
Fringe Boots - F21

And one last camwhore pic before I go, just cuz I really like my hair today :P

Heheheh, okay, that's the end of today's post! Hope you guys are having a great week so far! I'm still enjoying my Spring Break~~~
Love you all,
-Christine.
