[Tried & Tested] Hug Those Comfy Lips With MAC Huggable Lipcolors

Hi Huneybees,

Say 'Hug Me' with the all new MAC Huggable Lipcolor! They are back by popular demand and have brought in this huge teddy bear to join in the fun! This time, there are more bright, shocking pink and orange shades to celebrate the Summer!

The 10th shade - Bare Hug was not available and that's been the one I've been wanting to have. *sob sob* See this swatch from Temptalia below and you will know why it is a hotseller... :(

The Huggable lip shades have been known to give your lips those glossy, luminous, creamy look that clings to your lips for hours, making them look juicy, ready for kisses. Enhanced with collagen, you know your lips will be conditioned while you wear these lovely shades and the unique gel base melts upon contact, allowing each shade to glide on effortlessly. They are not meant to be true opaque shades, just as though glaze upon donuts! Delicious eh?

Before I drone on and on, here's a lowdown on what happened at the MAC Huggable Lipcolor launch held at their Sephora counter in ION Orchard. We all got to try out these lovely shades, snagged up the shades we've been eyeing on, watched demos by Beno Lim and his team to teach us how to pair those lippies with the right makeup and most of all, HUG the largest bright pink teddy bear!!!! Can I bring it home?!

I was a little disappointed though, only to realize that the teddy was in fact a mascot suit, but that didn't kill my fire to hug it repeatedly. LOL!

As like always at MAC events, it's always a joy to be there whilst we shop, and the makeup artists themselves always dress up to the occasion. Don't they look adorable this time with the side curled ponytail and pink ribbon?

Don't the models look so pretty?

Sorry I f* up my swatches and I had to "borrow"this from retailtherapy.onsugar.com

That's me with Love Feeling. One of the stronger shades.

So, now onto the Huggable Lipcolors. I like that they condition my lips like tinted lip balm and packaging them in this slim, silver tubes are so much easier to bring them around and not get lost in my bags. Hehehe!

Though the colour payoff is not meant to be strong, but I would love to have them around during the daytime. It's not too scary and catchy for my day to day events, it's not sticky like a lip gloss and it will be good to have for a light sheen of colour whilst moisturising your lips.

[Digital Fashion Week 2014] Thomas Wee Brings The Opera To The Fashion Scene

Hi Huneybees,

It was <<Farewell My Concubine>> meets Wieqi (Chinese name for the classic board game) moment as Thomas Wee presented his beautiful and elegant collection at the Digital Fashion Week 2014.

Strongly influenced by the Chinese opera, his signature silhouettes of elegant works in silk are seen as he incorporates traditional Korean and Japanese kimonos with brillant cuts and tailoring. His designs are wearable, timeless and entirely unique, as seen on the models as well as Business Development Director of DFW Creative - Charina Widjaja.

The show began with Asia's Next Top Model finalist - Sofia Wakabayashi clad in silk organza top, culottes and a Japanese inspired belt, choreography for the show was as interesting as Thomas' outfits as the models walked back and forth, with an uncanny interaction, as though we were all watching a fashion opera.

What I loved is ability to create this soft beauty with just 2 tones, without any fancy theatrics, the models all stood in refined elegance. Just like this piece above, with just simple folds, what seemed like a pair of pants, is in fact a skirt, creating that amazing illusion as the model walked past us.

Totally understanding the female's anatomy, the free-standing collars, the big sweeping shawls and smart looking suits, totally shouts drama and poise, especially with the last few looks on Sofia Wakabayashi and America's Next Top Model winner - Jourdan Miller, you will definitely be turning hands with Thomas Wee's amazing craftmaking.

Though owning a piece from the atelier of Thomas Wee might be luxurious, but I bet from the pictures shown below, you know you are getting the best of best. You’ll need to make an appointment with Thomas himself, if you would like to get them.

To make an appointment, email thomaswee5@gmail.com. Prices depend on the fabric and amount of work involved. Selected look can be purchased at Inverted Edge, just go to http://invertededge.com/shop/designer/thomas-wee-dfw.
