Beautiful Tees for Spring


If there's one thing a girl can never have enough of in her closet, then sure enough, it has to be some really nice t-shirts! How easy it is ladies to throw them on when we are in a rush to leave somewhere with only a few minutes to spare or want to look nice at home but consider being comfy as well. The comfy vs. slob issue is still a battle today. xD 

Here are some spring tees which I totally fell in love with whilst browsing:


Add a pair of black tights or jeggings and you're set!

Can never have enough owl in one's wardrobe.

So feminine and vintage! 
Lovely over long solid color dresses such as in black or gray.
 A classic sailor striped shirt. :) 


So which one of these did you like best? Hmm...I'd say mine has to be the first one; perfect for those days when you feel like theres too much going on in life, lol.

All of these tees are available from the same Gmarket seller here. Happy reading! 

Sincerely,

A Cherry Culture Haul

Hello Ladies, 

Today I thought I would share with you a quick  haul of goodies I purchased from Cherry Culture a few days back. If you already don't know, Cherry Culture is an awesome site to purchase brand new cosmetics at a discount price. It doesn't carry brand name makeup such as Mac, Nars, Urban Decay..you get the picture, however, it does carry awesome brands such as NYX, Palladio, and Jordana which are great quality for any girl with a tight budget.

Moving on, 
I placed my order with them on the 15th and received it today on the 23rd. 8 days in waiting. So that's not bad at all, although, I admit I was growing impatient. Nonetheless, patience is something I've always needed to work on. :p 



So from left to right, top to bottom:

Top Row:
NYX Blush in Angel (seems soft for everyday wear)
Palladio Herbal Tinted Lip Balm in Rosey (heard it compares to Burt's Bee!)
Palladio Herbal Tinted Lip Balm in Bronzy Pink
NYX Xtreme Lip Cream in Buttery Nude
NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Stockholm
NYX Born To Glow Liquid Illuminator in Gleam 


Bottom Row:
Palladio Herbal Dual Wet&Dry Foundation in Cypress Beige
NYX Roll On Shimmer in Nude (oh lovely color!)
Jordana Color Tint Blush Stick in Apple Cheeks
Cherry Culture Lip Balm in Strawberry (Free with a $20 or more purchase)
Jordana Blush in Coral Sandy Beach


Hopefully, I'll be able to review these over time as I use them.

Thank you kind people for reading. <3 

Until next time,

Now About Those Hair Ties...

I'm among those group of girls who keep a hair tie with them at all times. Where, you ask? Why of course my arm, you silly. :) The problem I have with hair ties is the fact that I lose them most  all the time! Either they get lost at the bottom of my purse, where I no longer have access to them, or just have a sort term memory moment; put them someplace and forget. Well, not anymore I say! 

Here's a neat idea I saw for keeping those hair ties in place for when you need them the most. 



All you need is a clip keychain and a pack of hair ties. Pretty neat, huh? 
Affordable and practical. Now let's hope I dont lose the keychain...

e.l.f. Essential Triple Tip Waterproof Eyeliner Pen

Being the kind of girl who wears black eyeliner every single day of her life and really can't live without it, I'm so excited that e.l.f. has launched their Essential Triple Tip Waterproof Eyeliner Pen! If you haven't already heard the news (cause I just found out today, lol), go ahead and check it out. :) As of right now, they offer two colors: black & brown. And for a low price of only $2, it's not heavy on the pockets either. 

Here is how e.l.f. describes it:
This smudge-free, budge-free Waterproof Eyeliner Pen lasts for hours for a fabulous and fresh look of precision. The innovative triple tip applicator provides better control while applying fine to bold lines. Try a dramatic look by extending the line for a winged eyeliner effect!

So what are your opinions on this product? Do you think it will be a hit or a miss? 

I'm really tempted to try it out!

Get to Know Priscilla Ahn

So maybe this isn't an interview (sorry if you thought that)! However, I felt liked I needed to share her voice with the rest of you girls out there. I discovered her recently by accident, and must say that I am hooked on her songs. I mean literally, I find her inspiring in the music industry, cause of her image. No crazy-doing weird stuff-to get attention business here, but simply a girl with her guitar living up to her dreams. Enjoy!

Where To Shop (For Clothes) When You're Broke

Let's face it, the economy is tough, and there are still times where we may need to look our best. Well, you don't always have to spend a ton to look like star. I've compiled a short list of my favorite online sites to get the best clothes for your money. New and with price tags! ;)



  • 599fashion- I have listed this site first, because it's the cheapest online clothing site I've found so far which sells brand new clothing for women. I've ordered from here numerous times and all my items have arrived to me safely and in a timely manner. Usually just 4 days!
You will like it if: 
  1. You want brand new simple clothing for women. 
  2. Have trouble finding plus sizes. (This site caters a lot of cute plus size clothing!)
  3. Like sites where there are daily new arrivals.
  • lnlclothing- I discovered this site recently and boy am I happy I did! They offer a ton of cute and beautiful clothes (mainly dresses) for $7.99 and less! Some of their clothes are also from Forever 21! 
You will like it if: 
  1. You have an obsession with cute dresses.
  2. Want reliable good quality.
  • everything5pounds- Here is a really good UK based site if you're looking for unique and fashionable clothing with an affordable price tag. They offer a HUGE collection of shoes and you really never get tired of browsing through it.
You will like it if: 
  1. You want to own something no one else owns.
  2. You don't mind ordering from oversees if you are in the states.
  • wholesale-dress- I think this has to be my favorite from the list. Simply because it's a site probably every blogger has heard of before and their stock in clothes, shoes, and accessories seems almost endless. Really! I used to hate the quality of their merchandise before, but it seems as if it's gotten better throughout the years.   For only $150 USD, I can get a completely new wardrobe. I will review this site more on a future post. ;)
You will like it if: 
  1. You like designer-inspired clothing.
  2. Don't mind that some clothing are imitations.
  3. Want to build your wardrobe for less. 
Hope these sites come in handy the next time you want to look your best while staying on a budget.

Welcome- An Introduction

Dear Readers,

In order to get straight to the point and minimize reading time. You're welcome.
Let me introduce myself by saying:

Hello, my name is Yumna, and this is my blog. And yes, I'm so excited! I can do a cartwheel, not that I even know how to but...

It's always been a dream of mine to write and being able to share my thoughts with others, is simply AMAZING. So although I don't have a book in my hand right now, in the meantime, I have this blog.



Just like most girls out there, I'm a confessed shopaholic, with an interest in, you know; girl things. So sit back with a cup of nice coffee (or Kool-Aid for all that matters) and make yourself comfy. Hopefully, there are many posts to come!


Oh, so you don't mind reading? Read more about me here. :)
