NOTD--Ginger Bells!

I got this one in a very good price. It cost me ntd179.
From the bottle, it looks pumpkin-ish (or the color of unpainted pottery) to me.
On hands...? Much better, it looks mature and winter, feel like sitting around fires.
I also like its texture, see how creamy and shinning it is! I didn't use top coat

NOTD--- Tickle my Francey+ Baguette Me Not

Got a bad-nail-day today :( These are the ones that I used to day.
When I off to starbuck today, My hands looked like these. 
I used 2 coats of OPI's tickle my Francey, with this

Although it looks shiny, cute and everything, it softens my existing layers. And my nail turned out to be cakey even after 2 hours. So... I decided to redo my nails when I got home.

I chose  Baguette Me Not this time.
I haven't use it for a while, and i have to say it looks much darker than the pictures.
It suits my skill tone, makes my hands look brighter than the neutral colors.
I think this is a must-have color for our Asians. It is not too dramatic like 'red' red,
It is a sophisticated and elegant color that is good for fall and winter.
I won't wear them in hot summer because I will leave my finger nails for some hot and edgy colors.

Heavenly Dew- My earrings collection

I got my ears pierced in high school. Since our school had a strict policy toward clothing manners, I had to hide it when schooling. After I graduated from high school, I deiced to be a very 'cool' person by digging more holes in my ears. Once I got 4 on my left ear and 3 on another (because i was born in April 3rd). 
Unfortunately I got infected, so i only have 3 now. But strictly speaking, earrings are not by favorite assaerories before. 
I did purchase earrings from time to time, but I lost them constantly. 
Yet, the the Korean Drama Cruel Temptation (2008) changed my attitude toward them completely.
In this soap opera, almost every woman wears earrings, which compliments their individual style with excellent taste. So I was addicted to earrings since then. Therefore most of my earrings are Korean-style. 
  These photos are taken from my crappy canon 950is...not sure if you can realize how gorgeous they are from them...
I got most of them from stores in ShiDa area, which are unique and worth visiting when you are  in Taipei.
