This was a Spring 2013 release, but only a measly 10 bottles made it to our shores. Even in the US, it was all soldout within days, and some are asking for double its retail price on ebay.

YSL La Laque Couture Tie & Dye
It’s been a crazy manicure week! I’ve been drooling over Chanel’s Provocation (a Spring 2013 launch), and finally picked it up last week.

Colors of the season
Stopped by the OPI@LacBar at Millenia Walk during lunchtime for a mani-pedi (probably my last before the baby arrives!). Gorgeous place - loved the chic white bar-styled interiors, and tucked away in a quiet corner on the 3rd floor. Comfy leather sofas allowed me to doze off almost right away! Unfortunately, I seemed to have … Continue reading »
