In other random news - Im really loving 2NE1's fall
outfits. Last year they were still wearing lots of
colorful clothes in the fall. But this year its more edgy
and sophisticated...but still funky & unique.
I just lovvvve 2NE1. 




For lunch today I made a  really simple version 
of BiBimBap. I only added the basic ingredients 
of this recipe but no beef
instead I used mushrooms. 
I didnt add kimchi or raddish.
I highly recommend you to go to the 
Korean grocery store near
you and get some Gochu Jang (Red Pepper Paste)
& Dwen Jang (Soy Bean Paste). 
Its so useful esp in the winter for soups 
and rice dishes etc !
I get mine online at koamart.com

Amerie's Blonde Hair




Ive always been a fan of Ameries Look.
Her music is ... well ... blah. 
I just think her songs arent catchy enough.
But, she is so freaking gorgeous.
She is half korean, half black if you didnt know.
She has a cute tattoo on her lower back
with her name in Korean.
I remember when I first saw her "1 Thing"
MV and freaked out when they showed her
tattoo in Korean.  Haha !








She has worked with Se7en also. 
I think there are clips on youtube
of them playing around in the studio
as well as the MV for "Take Control"
I just wish I knew why none of her songs have
been that good since "Why dont we fall in love"
Do you know what I mean ? They are just
all kind of dull...


So, yeah her father worked on the 
U.S Base in South Korea so thats how he 
met her Korean mom !
Cool right ?
Anyways, I always envied her luscious black hair 
& now its...gone ! 
What do you think ?
I think its too pale of a blonde for her skin tone.
I do like when stars switch up their look
but...not all hair colors suit all people. 






Current Loves

Lovinggg this MAC Eye Shadow out with the
Venomous Villains collection.
This one is "My Dark Magic"
Its so freaking gorgeous. It makes me want to 
replicate this swirl of colors
on a canvas. I swear I could look at
it all day. On the eyes it comes out
in 2 tones of a shimmery purple/black color 
but in the pan its even more amazingly 
gorgeous.
Im thinking about going 
back for the blue/green one.





As soon as I saw this color on the 
OPI Nail Polish Rack I had to have it.
It just kept jumping back out at me as
I browsed other sections of the store.
Its such a fantastic golden broze color. 
Its a bit sheer but build-able for sure.
Its called "Glitzerland" by the way.



I have found a new favorite lipstick ! 
Its Drugstore even !
Its the famous Maybelline "Pink Please"
A lot of people in the US say they cant
find it because its always 
sold out everywhere...but people here arent
that fanatic about lipsticks
so there are tons. Im going to stock up !
Its a creamy, cute pink shade. 
In the package it didn't look that special
but when I put it on I was in love.
Its a lightly nude sort of pink &
its slightly matte but also is not 
drying at all. Its perfect to pair with
dramatic or smokey eyes.
I freaking love it !



I also got this online from Etude House. 
Its one of their new Sweet Eye Cupcake Shadows. 
Super cute packaging. Lovely Color. 
I got the the Cloud Cookie one (#5) 
Its shimmery but not in a tacky way.
I really like these sorts of colors on my skin 
so I ordered one. Etude house always has 
fabulous eyes shadows for a decent price.
You can find this product here :

Of course their price is more than in Korea because they 
gotta make a profit...but if you want it thats where 
you can get it : ) 

Here is what it looks the colors look like up close:




& Here is the package :




So yep, thats about it for today. Just thought Id share. 
Have a good day ^ ^

I love Minjis Hair ~ !

I just watched the Inkigayo Stage of 
2NE1 on youtube and in "Cant Nobody"
Minjis hair was so freaking cool !
It makes me want to get purple clip in
hair extensions for fall.
I think it would give my black hair some edge.
Woohoo. Gonna look em up on ebay.









I dont dont want them to be
plastic looking...Hmm lets see what I can find. 







These seem to be good because they are human hair
which means you can style them and even dye them
a different purple shade if you want.
But, there isnt much hair so you might have to order
2 sets if you want a good bit of purple.
Remember - if you see in the description
that its only 30 grams then its really not much
hair at all.


I may just stick to one set as I just want it on the
bottom layers like Minji.





I think places like Hot Topic
would have similar ones as well. 



So, yeah have a look around ebay or whatever
and see what you can find ! : )
