so this is a sister-post to my post about my weight on my other blog, but I thought I'd post here about Fitness Clothes.

Fitness clothes for me consists of my highschool gym shorts and a t-shirt. I never understood why anyone would want to wear sweat pants or yoga pants when all you do is be hot and sweat but there are a few things I've realized:

1. Tigheter fitting tops and bottoms make it easier to see if your muscles are working, and also prevent the sliding up of the shirt, or the awkward sneak peak during leg stretches


2. The jacket that models wear in the ads, is moreso to hide you fabulous bod as you work out in your tight tank. I mean, sometimes I'd like to wear a sports bra AT the gym, but not TO the gym while walking behind the sketchy supermarket parking lot.
3. most work out clothes are FUGLY.

any suggestions for cute workout clothes? Old Navy has some, Pink has sports bras (though Victoria's Secret X is more structured rather than just half-a-cami like Pinks), although Victoria's and Pink have the CUTEST yoga pants (and coveted shorts/long shorts) if you find them in season!

Some clothes ARE cute, but I don't really wanna be so presumptuous as to wear a BLANGED OUT sports suit when I'm doing my old-lady 10lb weights, so I'll stick to the grungy baggy work out sweats, and save my awesome bod for the beach.

I know this isn't a makeup post, but I have to tell someone about how amazing Inception was!

SPOILER ALERT:

Inception freaks me out cause I dream like 6/7 nights as far back as I can remember. In grade school I read a lot of books on dream analysis because my dreams were so crazy and vivid and most unusally of all...

Lucid almost all the time.

So I started to train myself to control it, I can change events and erase people and situations. I jump off buildings to try and fly, I usually fall, but after over 15 years of training, I can fly sometimes!

I also learned to no think about it TOO hard... cause just like in the movie, the walls will shake and I'll realize I'm waking myself up by thinking too hard. I have to just get the idea, and let it happen without forcing it...

sounds familiar...

There is a common term used by MUA (Make Up Artists) to describe the products that they can't live without, the lipstick which blatantly PWNS all other lipsticks, the most amazing of all shadows and in this case, the LINER to end all LINERS.



Smashbox's JETSET WATERPROOF GEL LINER in Midnight

I have been debating buying this gel liner from Smashbox (one of my favorite brands) for like years now, ever since my emo phase in high school where the search for a BLACK BLACK liner for my waterline began.

The waterline is that delicate strip of skin above your lower lashes, that emo kids like to line. but watery eyes/contact cause it to be wet, and thus liners fade quickly...
NO MORE!

I used a bent angle liner brush from Sephora to apply, loaded up the brush, and just painted, LITERALLY painted it onto my waterline.

it appeared BLACKEST BLACK and WET. that sexy look you see on models!



I applied around 11:30 am and then at 12 at night...



still on! It totally isn't gone on my left eye, I accidentally wiped it off playing with makeup at sephora -_-

but I LOVE THIS MAKEUP. HOLY GRAIL, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! :]

and. I bought a $30 lipgloss from Dior it's shinyyyyyy!! I'll review soon!

and a preview of my new nail design for the wondergirls...

My other new obsession is Korean Circle Lenses!

They're contact lenses designed sometimes to change the color of your eyes, but mostly to make your eyes look BIGGER and give it that Dolly eyed look!

Sometimes the diameter of the iris (the colored circle) on the lens is BIGGER than your actual iris! this makes your eyes look HUGE and wide open!

Personally, the 14mm diameter have been JUST bigger than my actual iris, but there are up to 16mm lenses available o.O

here's some examples of contacts I own:

my natural eyes


my purple 14mm circle lenses - crystal.i violet

my acuveve colors - green



my blue circle lenses - Shimmer blue




The purple ones are the ones with the slightly bigger iris, and personally MY FAVORITE pair!

The purple is actually nice and subtle in the day light and indoors, and nice and bright on flash and in bright light!





the other one I'll share is the blue ones.

It's not as crystal looking as the purple, but it's a more "painted" looking blue pattern, with brown on the edges.





here's my video review for this:


Over all, I really like circle lenses! I have a gray pair on it's way to me right now too ;) I really want another blue pair in the same crystal type as my purples, and I also want a nice hazel brown too :3

I'm getting my hair dyed a nice light brown on tuesday! i'm hoping it's like this:

I bought this kit from Target today for.. idr. like $10 ?

I never did acrylics before, but I watched A LOT of tuts on youtube, and I've been thinking about doing acrylics for a while now.

I ordered little fimo fruit slices, little plastic bows with a rhinestone, and various colors bright fine glitter (to make different color acrylics) from ebay so I can't wait to get them!







I couldn't wait for them to come in, so I bought the little kit to practice with.

It's fairly easy to use, you just file and buff your natural nail, clean with acetone, add the false tip if you like, trim and file that, and then...

1. dip the included brush in the acrylic liquid, WARNING, this stuff SMELLS like a vietnamese nail salon! sit in a ventilated area with a fan!

2. drag across your acrylic powder mix (mine was clear, with mostly silver, and a tad of pink glitter), a cool ball will form at the tip of your brush!

3. Move to nail and place the ball, smash it quickly and thinly onto your nail surface. repeat steps 1-3 until the nail is covered.

4. when it dries (hit it with the manicure stick or tap nail on wood, it should CLICK), take the fine edge of the file, and SAND DOWN the acrylic till it's thin and even and smooth!

5. apply clear top coat and done ^_^

it came out really nice!




very sparkly in person, and multi-dimensional and my nail feels thick and STRONG.
I'm in love!!!

I can't wait to do my fruity sparkly nails :D

i know this is irrelevant, but look at the cute little chocolate I sewed!
