I feel very inspired after watching fashion-related videos. I really enjoy playing around with Looklet.com, where I can channel all my creativity juices into it.

New Hauls: More Revlon and Ginvera BB Cream
I've been really lazy and not been updating. It's about time I get back to my blog.
This is quite an old haul. Picked up these stuff during Watsons members' sale again. I think it was during the Chinese New Year sale.
Picked up Revlon ColorStay Liquid Foundation in 180 Sand Beige. I've been wanting this forever. I just couldn't bring myself to pay full price (S$29.90) for it in Singapore. Also picked up Revlon PhotoReady Stick Concealer in 004 Medium.
Now I only got this because there was 30% discount off. On top of that, I get a free makeup pouch and another Revlon nail polish (yay for freebies). I picked out Revlon Nail Enamel in 907 Steel Her Heart, which is a gunmetal shade.
Also finally got a full sized Mentholatum Acnes Creamy Wash. I did a review for it back here. It's really affordable for an acne cleanser but yet I keep forgetting to pick it whenever I go Watsons, until perhaps the Watsons members' sale. It's always sold out during members' sale so you can imagine how popular it is.
Also decided to try out the Ginvera Green Tea Nude Cover BB Cream. It was going for buy 1 get 1 free so I thought might as well get it. Test it and I find the Ginvera BB cream to be liquidy. It seems more of like a tinted moisturizer than a BB cream (which you would perceive it to have a thicker consistency). The shade is on the beige side but works for me. Would be trying it out longer before doing a review.
That's all for now.

Review - Chersamme Reversible Skirt
Bought 2 Chersamme Reversible Skirts (Zara-Tulip Skirt Inspired) after reading Wendy's review. I thought the skirt looks really cute on her and moreover, I really really like multi-functional clothing.
I've stopped shopping from blogshops online mainly because a lot of "free sized apparels" didn't fit me right and ended up disappointing me. So I took a gamble this time as this blogshop offered bigger sizes. I'm glad I bought these.
I ordered Girly Teenager, which has a strawberry fushia and bubblegum violet combination and The Wonderwoman, which has coral red and electric blue combination.
I would say the colours are true to the website's photos, except for The Wonderwoman's Coral side, which turned up looking more of a coral orange in reality than a coral red. All the other 3 colours are all very rich and vibrant while the coral appears a bit duller in comparison. Nonetheless, I find it to be a unique shade.
The reversible skirts are made of elastic polyster silk and so they are incredibly smooth to the touch. They have a few pleats in front but I don't find them to be that visible. The skirts are not sheer at all since they have 2 layers of coloured fabrics sewn together. The skirt comes with 2 pockets and it's the same even when you reverse it. It is smocked at the back.
When I reversed the skirt to try on the other side, I noticed that it will end up like this (see below) where the different coloured fabrics aren't aligned properly so the blue fabric will peek out a little when wearing the coral side. But I am not that bothered by it as it can still pass off as part of the design (to have it peeking out).
Overall, I really like the Chersamme Reversible Skirts. I like the cool concept of having 2 wearable skirts in one. I prefer The Wonderwoman a little more as the electric blue side is really pretty while the coral side is more muted but still really nice.
They still have some leftovers from backorder so if you are interested, drop by their site at Chersamme.com
