Sick Of Bullsh!t Alien Movies.

My friend Bertie Beetle just dropped me off at home after watching Skyline at the cinemas.


As the Usher song goes "Oh Myyyy Godddddd." WORST MOVIE! I hate movies that don't end. They are just like a part one and you are left to guess what happens.

As if one guy can kill every last alien around the entire world. Worst movie, waste of $27 (as I was stuck paying for both of us).

Took a quick snap of myself when I got home. Must warn you, did my makeup in the dark while we were driving to the cinema so don't be expecting a glamazon.

Love my new Supre top.

Day To Day Livin..


Fool me once - shame on you.
Fool me twice - shame on me.


I can't believe I gave him a second chance!!! Two weeks ago I was going to catch up with one of my mates (I'll call him Hink). Friday night comes, Friday night goes.. No coffee/dinner like we planned.

Whatever, it happens. Would have been nice if he called or messaged to cancel but whatever, I've barred people at times too.

Today I'm out shopping, waiting in line to buy my new video camera (check for the unveiling on my vlog tomorrow) and he walks right past me. I call out to him and he is shocked as shit to see that I'm blonde now. Anyway, I get a call from him at around 6.30 asking if I wanna catch up tonight. Coffee and a cruise. I'm like sweet, 9pm (then I changed it to 10pm). He was fine with the time.

10pm comes and goes and still no car in my driveway. At 10.30 I tried to call twice - no answer. UGH. I sent him this message.

Ur obviously throwing off again.
Don't worry about it.
I'm not one of those dumb bitches who will sit here n wait all night while u ignore my calls and msgs.
Im gonna make other plans.


And that was that.

Talking about people I seen/ran into today.. I was at my local mall buying heapssss of stuff (check vlog for haul) and this guy walked past me. Shaved head, built like a brick sh!t house and POW he looked at me. Not only did he look, but he practically got whiplash turning to keep staring at me. Then he stops, waves and waits for my response. I smile and wave (embarrassed as anything) and then he gives me the *can i have ur phone number* signal) I shook my head - no, then he stood there and looked at me with an OTT puppy dog face. I laughed and walked up to him. Turns out I know him from years back. How weird. He is GORGEOUS to say the least.

He has such swag - litterally, he has a bad knee so he walks a tad gentle on that leg, causing a bit of a limp. Usually he has a walking cane but he left it at home. Love a man with a disability. Braces, broken bones - I'm there! Hahaha.

UHHHHHHHH. What a day.
Buying clothes, watching a group cat fight in the middle of the mall, buying more clothes and shoes, getting a guys number, running into a mate, my hair looking freakin awesome and getting my new Sony Bloggie. Can't ask for anything more. Well - maybe a witness on hot good my hair looks.

If I can't get out of this house to get a witness, I'll bring the hair to you. I'm so happy with it. Looks hella short in that photo but DAMNNN. Rapunzel in the house ;) lol.


Oh and also - I got a lot of stuff in the post today. So relieved. Took heaps of photos. I have so many vlogs to upload to my YouTube account, it ain't even funny!

My eyeshadow is the Wet N Wild palette in Vanity. Not that you can really see =\

Double Standards..

It really tweeks my melon that the Glee GQ spread is getting so much negativity when photos like the ones I've posted below are going around.. and celebrated never the less!

OoO she's 30, WOOPTY DOO. People are saying she is brave for posing nude at 30. The last time I checked, posing nude is all that Kim Kardashian is worth..!

And don't even get me started on the fact that people call this crap 'art'. If it was art, her face would have been painted too. She wouldn't be standing there full frontal or ass out with her hair and makeup done flawlessly.

This is just another pathetic example that Kim Kardashian will do ANYTHING to get noticed. If she's not naked, she's in a bikini.

This family makes me sick. No doubt her mother told her what a 'great opportunity' this photo shoot would be for her 'career'.

You know who I call brave? Who I respect for posing nude? Helen Mirren. Women like her are in a league of their own. Kim Kardashian can take her clothes off all she likes, she will never have a shred of dignity in my eyes.


People are actually inspired by THIS person..?

Knock Knock. Whos There? The Postman!


I hate being deceived.

When I opened my parcel today, I was expecting the palette that's displayed in the above photo. After all, that is the 'Dior Beige Massai palette'.

When I placed a bid, I knew the palette was a tad different but it still looked quite large in their photos, not overly huge but at least a standard Dior palette size. Today when it arrived it didn't take me long to realize that it's the smallest frikin palette on the face of the Earth!! I had to open the package again to see if that was just a free sample that I received with my full sized palette. It wasn't.

It's probably double the size of a standard single Dior shadow but we all know that still not anywhere as big as the normal palettes. I'll be lucky if I can even get an ear bud into the eyeshadows on the sides, let alone a standard makeup brush...

Ok maybe it's not THAT small but seriously, I was thinking the palette was around 10 - 12cm. It's more like 6cm.

I really don't mind because I love the colours but I wish they had of advertised it was a travel size palette.

Anyway, enough of a rant and onto the important stuff.

This is the latest edition to my makeup.


Christian Dior palette in 705 Beige Massai.



Have you ever been deceived on Ebay?

If you were me would you have asked for a refund or just been happy that you liked the eyeshadow shades?



Living In A Bad Omen.

Just like the title of this post, my new house has had a bad omen since the day we moved in. My family are pretty superstitious people and when we drove into the driveway of our new house, there was a dead black cat on the front lawn.

You have bad luck if a black cat crosses your path, can you imagine the amount of bad luck you have when one dies at your doorstep?

So far, we spent five days without power, the kitchen sink has been clogged, the television antenna needs to be replaced, our internet wont be connected for up to a month, i burnt off some of my hair and have been caught in an ice cold shower at least four times because the hot water service is up shit creek.

Ahhhhh, you can't imagine the relief I feel just to be able to sit here and write a blog entry, even if it is on crappy dial up.

I have so many vlogs that I can't upload because it would take all day just to upload one video on dial up.

Can't wait until our wireless internet is connected.

How has everyone been? I'm going to attempt reading all of your blogs now.

Take care xx

Moving House.

So let me tell you about my day.

Last night I slept on the couch. I woke up today, brushed my teeth then started moving all of our extremely heavy boxes onto the ute that we hired. The my brother and I took all the loads to the new house. We unloaded the boxes and took them into the corresponding rooms and then did the same thing again and again and again.

That was my day until 3pm when I almost snapped my thumb off my hand.

When my brother was moving the ottoman (big foot stool) he was trying to fit it in between a book case and the side of the ute. My thumb was right on the corner of the bookshelf when the ottoman was slammed down into place.


Thumb = swollen, tight, black and wont bend from that position, no matter how much 'Kill Bill' "wiggle your big toe" motivation I give it.

So, after half an hour crying and trying to pull it together, it was back to work - thinking I'd just broken my thumb.

We then jump started my car, I parked it on the road and we took another load to the new house. I'm so glad mum found a house only three streets away otherwise today would have been hell.

5pm rolls around and we get a knock on the door. Mum opened the door to see some doosh from our real estate saying that we have to open our house because they scheduled an open day to show prospective tenants through the house. After mum went off her nut, he stood outside for fifteen minutes and no-one showed up to view the property. I don't know if it was embarrassment due to the fact that nobody viewed the property or because mum ripped him a new one but after the fifteen minute open house time slow, he just got in his car and drove off. No 'goodbye' and no 'thanks for your time'. Rude bastard.

NEVER RENT FROM RUN PROPERTY IN CARLTON!! They are the most incompetent, rude and ridiculously demanding real estate we have ever leased through.

Anyway, mum and bro have gone to post a parcel that mum sold on Ebay. You should see how many bags of clothes are in my new room at the moment just waiting to be unpacked. I'm not even going to bother explaining the amount of stuff I have to sell - mostly clothes and shoes. You wouldn't believe me even if I told you.

I'll be taking photos tomorrow and fingers crossed that I can jump on the net to post them. Our new internet provider just sent me a text message to say that there are no available ports at our new house so we may have to wait a month for internet to be connected. I'll wait til my brother eats before I tell him. He is usually a bit happier after a feed lol.

So far, this move has been easy, hard, disappointing, painful, aggravating and f'd up.

I can't wait until we are in the new house. It's like a clean slate, you know? I already have my room planned out, a schedule for myself and ideas for my vlog and blog posts. I'm definitely going to step up my professionalism with my vlog. I need to find the perfect spot to record, set up a nice background and organize my wardrobe so I can show you guys through.

Oh, best part of moving house? I FOUND MY TWO DIOR DRESSES FOR SUMMER! Oh, plus I found like three boxes of makeup, fifty odd nail polishes and some other random stuff.

Here is all that is left in my lounge room at the moment.

A couch, a rolled up carpet and a bookshelf.

Hope your day has been as eventful but less painful and aggravating as mine.




Darle Una Sopa De Su Propio Chocolate.


Being new to having a VLOG I was looking at rant's on YouTube and came across all of the below videos. If Mac hadn't pulled this collection, I too would be doing a vlog about how disgusted I am with this cosmetics line.

For all of you who don't know anything about the Mac Rodarte collection:

It's based around Mexico. Juarez in particular. Juarez is the most dangerous town in the world outside of government declared war zones. It is known for its drugs, slave labour and brutal treatment of it's women. It is a daily occurrence for women to be beaten, raped, kidnapped, dismembered and murdered. There has been 6000 murders in Juarez this year alone. The police are corrupt and do nothing to stop the violence against it's women and children.

For Mac to do a line and try and make money out of these peoples suffering just disgusts and astounds me. What is even more pathetic is that the names of their products are OBVIOUSLY named after the horrible things that happen there. Names like 'ghost' and 'factory'.

Could they be any more obvious that they know what happens and don't care? Not to mention the model looks like she's dead.

In all honesty, I'm happy that Mac have canceled the collection and are donating the amount of money they PROJECTED they would have made off this line but seriously? Damage in my eyes is done.

They have no soul. Big statement but at the end of the day - to them, it's all about the money. They wanted to make money at anyone's expense. First they offered to throw $100,000 at the problem, which (rightfully) enraged people more.

What gets to me is that most of the violence and brutality of Juarez is aimed at women and Mac sell to WOMEN. Their buyers are WOMEN.

Just because they have no conscious about what is going on, doesn't mean that we wont/don't.






If you don't mind a bit of bad language.

More Than A Worthy Alternative To Mac.


I think that everyone is so in love with Mac that it's come to a point in the average beauty bloggers life that they only really stick to Mac and designer cosmetics (Chanel, YSL etc).

I am so sick of seeing Mac hauls. Really, I am.

I'm from Australia so Mac is extremely expensive to buy. I think it's around $45 - $50 for a single blush. In my opinion? I'd prefer to buy a complete Chanel palette off a wholesale cosmetics site for that amount of money. Don't get me wrong, I love my cheeks but if I could cover my whole face and not just my cheeks for $50 then I'd prefer to do that.

Maybe you'll think I'm a tightass, maybe you'll say I'm not 'up with it', but most of my Mac products have been gifts, bargains on Ebay or swaps I've done in the past.

I love makeup more than I can explain but I am never tunnel visioned about anything in life, whether it be makeup, food, clothes, shoes or even the smallest thing like stationary! I love to try different things, cheap or expensive, new or old.

I can't say that this is a new addiction of mine, because I have been shopping here for a long time but I think I should give an honorable mention to Inglot.

It can't be easy being in competition with a company like Mac.

I have found that they have the best quality in packaging and product. But what is the best quality they offer? The price!

I just got three nail polishes for the price of one. They were on sale for $5 each, just because they are last seasons shades!!!

Point me in the direction of a Mac store who would lower their prices to $5 just because it's last seasons stock and I'd be there in a heartbeat. I think the point I'm making is that I don't think I've ever seen a sale at Mac. They get away with keeping prices the same because they have a 'permanent line'.

I love Mac and this wasn't intended as a dig at Mac so please don't get me wrong but in my opinion, Inglot is THE GREATEST!

I love love love love love love them.

Just look at these photos and just TRY to tell me that they are not worth putting your Mac Pro store on hold for a while?!

What Was She Thinking?


I don't know about most of you, but I personally can't stand Rhianna, Rihanna - however you're meant to spell it. In my opinion she isn't worth checking my spelling on.

I am very opened minded when it comes to clothes, makeup, hair and everything else about a persons image but I am more than happy to let everyone know that I am really unimpressed with her hair. Although it pains me to admit this, her makeup can look fabulous at times but not even the best makeup in the world can save her from looking like a fire hydrant.

Here's praying that the next time she's waiting to cross the road, a dog (in tradition) cocks his leg and pees on her.



Stop, Thief!


There is only one real difference between someone stealing your bag in the street and someone stealing your money over the internet.

When it's virtual theft you can't scream 'Stop, thief!' like they do in the movies. Those famous two words are usually followed by a handsome man throwing a can of vegetables into the crowd. You can actually feel that sense of justice and relief when the can of vegetables hits the thief right on the head as he bolts from the crime scene. It's moments like these that I wish there were virtual cans of vegetables that I could throw through my computer screen that would fly out the thief's computer screen on the other end.


The reason I'm going on about this is because I recently purchased a secondhand Louis Vuitton bag on the internet. The seller was from South Australia and I'm from Melbourne. It's been 23 days since she supposedly sent the bag and it still hasn't arrived. I doubt she even sent it to begin with. She has given me nothing but trouble since day one and I wish I hadn't deposited the money into her account.

Here is the last email I wrote to her.

I feel some release of stress by taking this matter further. Deep down though, I know the feeling will never compare to the relief I would get if I caused a concussion to the lowlife who stole my cash.

Ranting About Revlon.

I've always been a huge fan of matte eyeshadows. They always work better on my eyes when I'm wearing eyeliner - which is 5 days a week. Shimmer and metallic eyeshadows seem to coat my eyeliner so I tend to stick with matte shadows most of the time.

I was very keen on trying this Revlon range of matte and metallic shadows until I seen this ad.

Her makeup looks dirty with a bit of a drug addict edge. I'd even go as far as to say that she looks like she had been partying for the last 10 hours and her makeup smudged all over her face so Revlon just applied makeup over the makeup she was already wearing.

Jessica Biel is gorgeous but the makeup that has been done looks pathetic.

The white does not work on top of the black, her eyebrows look red, the black is too heavy on her eyes, it's not evenly applied and it looks like she has no mascara on.

Altogether it looks like a cheap, chalky and a mess. It annoys me just to talk about it.

The other ad she did for foundation is no better. I don't think she has a face for cosmetics advertising.

Revlon needs to pick up it's game if they want me to buy it's products.

Taking A Trip To Paradis, Detouring Through Allentown.


I'm so glad that I no longer have to listen to Vanessa Paradis whistle and sing through the Rouge Coco by Chanel advertisement during the television ad breaks.

It was nice of Chanel to bring back the whistle she did in the original ad in the early 90s but I know I'm not alone when I say that I'm over the moon that I no longer have to hear it 45 times a day.

I suppose it didn't help that my brother would always make comments regarding 'horse teeth' or 'whistling through her front teeth' every time he even heard the ad from another room. As much as it made me laugh, the ad itself required a channel change or the mute button.

It's no surprise to see she is now advertising bags for Chanel in the August issue of Marie Claire magazine.

I'm well aware that Chanel got rid of Lily Allen because she wasn't suitable for Chanel due to her partying habits but in my opinion, this bag suits Lily Allen a lot more than Vanessa Paradis. I cannot see her wearing this bag in real life whereas Lily Allen looks like she would own one in every colour!

The ads they shot of Lily Allen looks like she is playing the role of a spoilt rockstar princess who loves to be the center of attention and be the loudest girl in the room.

I'm not quite sure why they would make an ad campaign like that and then dump her for being the same person she's portraying in their ads. Plus, all you have to do is listen to one of her songs to know who she is and how she is.

Maybe they should do a bit of research before choosing the next person to do their ads.


Khanh't Afford Those Prices? Yeah, Who Can?

I was just checking out the current Net-A-Porter sale.

I came across some really cute sunglasses on sale.

Although the prices were dramatically slashed, I don't think there is a snowballs chance in hell that I would pay 147 POUNDS but hey, each to their own.

Emmanuelle Khanh may be a recognized designer but seriously, I can get a pair of Dior, Cavalli or Chanel sunglasses for this price and almost every person I pass on the street would appreciate the logo and price tag that came with it.

These sunglasses are pretty but they don't set my pants on fire and if my pants aren't on fire, neither is my money.

Lets face it, with how many designers in the world at the moment, there are a million other things I'd prefer to spend $300 AUD on than one pair of sunglasses by a designer that only a few people in Australia would recognize.

I'm not run or motivated by only the 'popular' labels and I don't dress for other people but I draw the line at a sky high price tag.

I know for a fact that I could get a vintage YSL purse, a new Givenchy makeup palette, a second hand Louis Vuitton bangle and a vintage Burberry scarfe for the price of one pair of these sunglasses.. And that's the price they are when they're on sale!!!!

What do you think?

Would you or have you spent over $300 on a pair of sunglasses that aren't by a 'popular' designer? I'm not talking about people who have millions of dollars, I'm talking about an every day person who has to work to pay the bills and cringes when the rent is due.

I was shocked as shit when I seen the prices. Keep in mind that every 1 Australian dollar is $1.70 in pounds.

Here are the prices in pounds and what it converts to in Australia dollars.

GBP - 369.57 reduced to 147.83
AUD - 649.05 reduced to 259.62

GBP - 339.13 reduced to 135.65
AUD - 595.59 reduced to 238.23

GBP - 286.96 reduced to 114.78
AUD - 503.96 reduced to 201.58

GBP - 265.22 reduced to 106.09
AUD - 465.78 into 186.31

GBP - 257.17 reduced to 100.87
AUD - 451.65 reduced to 177.15

GBP - 369.57 reduced to 147.83
AUD - 649.05 reduced to 259.62


Like I said, cute.

I seen a pair similar to the red ones available at Factorie on sale for $3 or two for $5.
They may not have the pretty 'EK' on the side and it's a promise that they will break in a few months but f me, I could buy 100 pairs of the cheap sunglasses for the price of one of these designer pairs.

Therefore, if my cheap pair break every 3 months, I still get 300 months (25 years) worth of these sunglasses.

Do the Emmanuelle Khanh sunglasses last 25 years?
