steve madden for a steal
Shopping day on a Monday does not get any better. Browsing through at Myers in Perth City, Steve Madden's were always tempting to me minus the ridiculous price tag on the student/unemployed budget. The whole rack was on sale starting from AUD49.95 till AUD 99.95. I decided to try on a gorgeous pair of oxfords but found it hard to walk in. I was so tempted to get the wellington/garden boots in tartan design for like AUD14.95 but then I might be heading back to KL soon. hmmm...while sitting there staring around at all the shoes, I spotted a platform/wedge heel in grey. I tried it on because it was in my size and I was thinking I should just try as many shoes I can there so I would not need to keep on wearing on my boots. It was comfortable and so ultra cute! When I looked at the price, I was in a stunned-mode. AUD19.95. SERIOUSLY? From AUD99.95 to AUD19.95? Quickly I lined up to get the other side. It was a steal dont you think? I am totally in love with it hence the long blog post!
Steve Madden's Benji in Taupe
Apprently, Steve Madden in Australia is closing down hence the sale. Well, I just have to go browsing around in other Myers to see any bargains! Sorry for the ugly photo.
Other note : Shaun's graduation day. Sorry I can't be there on the special day but do have fun!

the cove
On Wednesday my friend invited me to watch a movie at Cinema Paradiso in Northbridge. Not knowing what to expect since it was Cinema Paradiso ( think artsy-), I went along on a rainy evening. The movie was called The Cove. From the explanation they gave us, I thought it was more between the lines of murder/secret type. Anyways, I was pretty naive. Only after the movie I "wiki-ed" it up.
"The Cove is a 2009 documentary film documenting the annual killing of more than 2,500 dolphins in a cove at Taiji, Wakayama in Japan."
Overall the docu-movie was really an eye opener. Such killings should not take place at all. From the movie, nearly 90% of the people in Japan does not know the atrocities of dolphin killing is going on. They do not even know that dolphin meat is even consumed. If you guys are wondering where does the meat go? Apparently they pass it off as whale meat in the supermarket. Dolphin meat has 2000ppm of mercury much more higher than the legal limit of 0.4ppm for any fish. Its not only about the dolphins being killed, after the fisherman's round out all the dolphins to the cove, dolphin instructors from all over the world would basically pick out which dolphins for their aquariums around the world. The dolphins which aren't pick, are the ones that are slaughtered. At the end of the day, people like me and you are the ones that support the trade by going to see this dolphins/swim with them.
I know what I might have just wrote might be gibblish. But I do believe if you are able to create awareness, it makes the world a whole better place. So if just one signature or one lousy blog post can make the difference, why not right?
I have linked the petition site on my facebook profile page or you can just get it here : http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/724210624?z00m=19775525
Just 2 minutes of your time can make the difference!
You can head to The Cove movie website at http://www.thecovemovie.com for more information for viewing times.
It would be awesome if you guys just spread the word about the petition around or just write up or copy my lousy post!
There is more information that I have got but I have managed to misplace it somewhere. Next post!

dinner+dance dress up to the 50's
ok fine. i did not want to buy the shots. its aud17 for one 5 inch photo. i will probably think it over first.
dress : forever new victorian inspired little black dress (australia)
shoes : Platform T-bar metallic grey/black heels from charles and keith (singapore)
hair : frangipani from the curve's flea market (malaysia)
overall : although it was a glam-glam day, the whole outfit is probably less than aud100. the dress was on sale :P
the afters
white herringbone coat - ebay australia
petite gloves - forever new (australia)
somebody commented to me when i was in freo after drinks during rush hour, your probably the first person i know in perth that wears gloves. hello world..if you were wearing a short sleeved coat during winter you will probably need light gloves. its not like i was wearing snow gloves right?gloves are definitely fashionable but not in malaysia!

the st john's ambulance annual dinner and dance at the perth convention centre was more formal than i thought. it was so glam!the theme was dress to impress. so i decided with the 50's sultry look.basics : maybelline angelfit foundation, bodyshop tea tree concealer, maybelline shine free loose powder.
eyes : modelista eye pallete shimmery white eyeshadow, rimmel kohl eyeliner, l'oreal lineur intense liquid eyeliner, lash me lashes sarina lashes, shiseido the makeup lasting lift mascara.
