Here's some pictures from over the weekend. I was so lame and forgot to pack my camera so I had to use my iPhone to snap these.
The wedding cake for the lovely couple :) It was a Taro cake from Van's Bakery in San Gabriel for those of you familiar with LA. It was delicious!
This was the pier at Marina del Ray where the wedding took place
This was the deck of the restaurant Shanghai Red's :) The other side of the bridge had a whole bunch of gorgeous koi fishes! :)
The table where I sat at :) Asian weddings are all about the food. This place had a buffet!
This was the best photo I found o_o I didn't realize I left my camera at home until we were in LA... 6 hrs later! Driving. My hair's crazy, I know.
This is Muffin... the couple's 12 yr old cat :)
How is it that super markets can sell ice cream like this? LOL Ridiculous huh?
I've noticed that one of the things I don't really pay attention to are my brows o_o I don't know what it is but I never seem to make it shapely yet it's the one feature that really defines the face. That's all going to change in a the next few days! I was contacted recently to review the Anastasia Beauty Express Brow Palette (really excited!). I'm really going to make an effort to see how a higher end product works compared to my cheap ELF Studio Eyebrow kit. And also to see how it compares in terms of color match. I always find that it's hard for Asians to get the "ideal" brow color because it never looks good to have jet black eyebrows yet it can look unnaturalish with brown brows. At least that's with my ELF one... maybe the Anastasia one is somewhere in between? ;) We shall see.
It's curious, isn't it? I've never tried anything like that and it looks really luxe with thoughtful packaging. What I like most about it is the brow stencils. I'm really excited to try it out and will def give guys you my thoughts on it.
Will post again tomorrow. Night all!
