410. Recent Life

I'm trying to update my blog more frequently again, so I'll most likely be posting shorter updates rather than saving up all my photos for a big post. And I'll start taking more pictures again. So this is my new dress from AQAQ (one of my favourite brands at the moment!). It is a different style but it's pretty similar to this black one I have from them. I love them both so much! I need more occasions to wear them to though. I also realized how much I've been spending on clothes, food and everything in general these days so I need to stop and save up for a bit. Well, maybe after I get my two upcoming purchases (which I probably shouldn't reveal yet because if I do, I feel like I'd have to buy them lol. I'm still trying to talk myself out of buying them. Or at least delay it.)

I really want to go on a big vacation again this Spring so I have to save. I was supposed to go to Asia with my mom this November but plans fell through..so I may go next Spring or possibly to Europe. My sister just moved to Hong Kong today. It's pretty exciting but unfortunately I may not get to see her for at least a year. I've asked her to start a blog to update us on her new adventure though so maybe I can share the link with you when it's up ;) That's also part of the reason why I may go to Hong Kong again in the near future. Before I do that though, I need to get my new travel site/blog more established first! I don't remember if I mentioned it here before but I am starting a new travel blog, which is going to be more business-oriented than this personal blog. I haven't had much time to work on it lately but I need to start again.

Last Thursday, my sister and I met up at Yorkdale for lunch, then a movie and dinner with my mom. I haven't been to Yorkdale in forever..I didn't know they totally renovated the Holt Renfrew there and added a bunch of new stores! It's actually pretty nice. If it wasn't so far from me I'd go more often.

Make Up For Ever "Artist Shadow"

In addition to the Make Up For Ever "Artist Liner", the brand also sent me a duo of their "Artist Shadow" eye shadows to try out. They were released in celebration of the brand's 30th anniversary. The entire collection includes 210 different shades, so in other words - any colours you can think of to create any types of looks! I received the Iridescent Snow Gray (I-120) and Metallic Turquoise Blue (ME-232). These two shades complement each other perfectly and I love the silky/creamy texture of them.

Much like the eye liner, the eye shadows offer intense colour payoff and lasts all day. The formula is based on Pigment Atomization and Water-Blend Technology, which makes them super easy to apply and blend. Pigment Atomization is a technology used to maximize colour delivering up to 88% concentrated pigment (the highest on the market). Water-Blend Technology is a technology used to allow for the utmost blendability and even texture.

The 210 shades are available in Matte, Satin, Metal, Iridescent and Diamond finishes which currently makes it the most extensive range available to consumers.



Purchase it at Sephora: Artist Shadow ($24 for a single/$39 for a duo) & a Custom Palette Case ($1!)

409. Cluny Bistro

Since I haven't updated my blog in so long here's my second post of the night! Yesterday my sister and I went for lunch at Cluny Bistro. It's a fairly new French restaurant in the Distillery District. Their interiors are beautiful! I love restaurants in this style. I had the Classic Croque Madame (with extremely skinny fries) and she had the Charred Marinated Tofu salad.





It was a Monday afternoon so it was pretty empty in there. Great atmosphere.



My portion was pretty large and very filling. My sister's was the opposite, so we ended up sharing mine. I really love the fries here. They're extra skinny and the seasoning was really good.
