A "Land Before Time."


Since this blog is not only dedicated to fashion alone, I might as well share something informative to make it more lifestyle-ish. Some of you might not get what the title means. It's based on a 1988 animated movie about dinosaurs, "The Land Before Time." 
Anyway, South Korea is big on festivals and expos. Speaking of which, Goseong World Dinosaur Expo 2012 is one of them. It is held in the town of Goseong-gun. The expo, which opened last March 30, will last for 73 days.

They offer attractions such as 3D, 4D and 5D film viewing. It was such a downer, at first, since you have to stay in line for more than 30 minutes. But it was rewarding when you've finally reached your turn and appreciate why most people wanted to see it. "Cool!" would sum it all up. They also have the Dinosaur Garden and the like. While waiting in line for our turn to watch the 5D film, a parade passed our way.

 
Not just a childish delight, I have loved the banana split flavor for a long time now.

 
For this trip, I opted to wear a simple outfit, a grey jacket over a red-striped shirt and an orange belt paired with a comfy pair of dark denim pants. I wouldn't have enjoyed the trip if I hadn't worn my "walking-friendly" flats.

 I also wore a couple of bling, grey leather studded bracelet, a ring with a black oval stone and a long-chained necklace with antique-looking pendant, so that the outfit wouldn't look boring.

 Finally, I had my white sunnies on.

Informative enough? Let me know.

Quirky.


I'm really still an amateur when it comes to blogging. There aren't enough creative juices inside me that I can squeeze out. Not to mention the poses I made for the past few posts. I've been trying to keep it as simple as possible. But what the heck, I know some of us have that supermodel within us. I know I do.


With the help from my mentor and blogger friend, Hani, I came up with the title for this post. Quirky means something that is strange or not normal but cool, according to Urban Dictionary


Quirky is my new haircut and so are my shoes. I may not look like one supermodel but I'm on that high. Lavender mixed with leopard prints. Yes, quirky is the perfect adjective for it.


I apologize ahead for the next picture. It's quite funny to look at. I was trying to go for a sexy look. Instead I ended up looking like I'm constipated. Well, what's worth a good laugh, right? Cheers to me, for trying :)


Anyway, for this post I'm wearing a black blazer, button-up shirt, animal print leggings and my "quirky" platform sandals. I'm carrying a purple bag to complete the quirky ensemble. Accessorized my outfit with black crystal bead necklace, a studded bracelet in grey and a ring with an over-sized stone.
Happy weekend everyone!

Hair evolution.


 Before I came to love this new hair of mine, I've always worn my hair straight and long over the years.  But that didn't stop me from experimenting on different types of hair cuts that would be suit me from time to time. Here's some of them.

long and straight 

 
front fringes

  
medium length with highlights 

permed

super short
So far, I haven't tried too edgy or too risky haircuts. But I hope to do it someday soon. Lesson for this week and maybe even for life, don't be afraid to try new things in life. You'll never know what best suits you.
Have an inspiring happy week everyone :)
