Metal Clashes

I've really been into mixing gold and silver together lately. When done right, it adds more dimension and intrigue to your look. Can you also tell I love anything pyramid studded or shaped? Just some recent accessory findings. I've been trying to build up my bracelet collection so that I would have more options to stack. I like the idea of stacking bracelets of various colors and textures to create a unique look. Loving some of the bracelets I purchased! Gold on white is such a clean, fresh combination. I absolutely adore gold on cobalt blue!!! The pairing looks so luxurious yet edgy at the same time.








Gold/Blue Bracelet: F21 / Metal Pyramid Stud Bracelets: H&M / Rings: H&M / White/Gold Pyramid Bracelet: H&M



Just some random 셀카(selca) photos ^-^




Nails of the Week (NOTW)

Leopard print! Like my nails? ^-^ Sadly I haven't become this skilled at nail art yet -_-! It's Sally Hansen's Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips in 320 Kitty, Kitty. I love them! They turned out a lot better than I was expecting and have gotten lots of compliments from people ^-^. They're suppose to come off with nail polish remover. I want to try them in different patterns now! I have one other one, a plaid design from the holidays ^-^.







Recent Instagram Photos (mehimarykim add me! ^-^)




A quick shout goes to the lovely Selen at xLittleBells for awarding me with the Versatile Blogger Award. Thank you so much!! Please go check out her awesome blog! ^-^

Next up will be some monthly subscription beauty box reviews (Topbox, Glymm, Luxe Box). Anyone interested in tutorials? Maybe of Kpop artists' makeup looks in MVs? 2NE1? ^-^ Let me know!

Till next time,

  2. So they have been saying forever that they were going to build an H&M here, after three years still no H&M! And after seeing all your freaking accessories I'm super jealous and can't wait to get my butt back to Cali where we have H&M all over.

    OMG are we accessories twins now, I love pyramid and stud jewelry as well but I must say I can't bring myself to mix gold and silver tones for some reason. Even the hardware on my bag has to match whatever jewelry I'm wearing and I agree that the gold and cobalt blue does have a royal air about it.

    Me-Hi you have such an adorable and youthful face! I love how well you do you're winged eyeliner, due to one of my eyelids being slightly bigger it makes it hard for me to get that look down symmetrically.

    1. I hope they build an H&M there soon!! Seriously one of my favorite stores, style wise as well as price range! ^-^ They said that the U.S. online shop is suppose to open soon so hopefully that'll help you!

      YESSS accessory twins ;) I know, I love pyramid/stud jewelry! I was actually like that too until recently, I would always match silver with silver and gold with gold. I still like doing that but recently I've been into mixing metals ^-^

      awww thank you! (*^-^*) I love your eyes, they're so big and dolly!!

  5. Love the nails! I haven't tried the salon effects yet because they can be sorta pricey especially compared to doing nails yourself, but it's definitely much easier and quicker!
