99 red balloons

It was my grandmother's 65th birthday yesterday! I wore one of my favourite dresses, a red dress wit polka dots! :) My favourite color & print in one dress! The Charles & Keith wedges gave me very bad blisters but the pain is worth it ! ;) & it made me as tall as most of my relatives which is awesome because even my 10 year old sister is as tall as me now! :(

I went out today to get DIY materials for my lego rings & bodychains..yes I am so lazy I haven't even started on them yet! It was a really hot day so I decided to wear my high waisted shorts wit a t-shirt wit my favorite superhero! BATMAN :D

I have been obsessed wit lipsticks & lipglosses lately. I put about 5 in my bag! I experimented wit red lipstick today, I liked it but it gave my mother a shock! Hahaha.

    Oh I adore both these outfits! Especially the second one, that t-shirt, I adore! :)

    You sound like my friend, trying to wear heels so she can feel taller. :D I'm afraid to say, I'm one of those people that makes most my friends feel short... not tall... especially when I myself wear heels... I'm usually around 5'10-6 feet :P

    Thanks for your kind comment, by the way, I'm so glad you like them :)

    xoxo,

    i like the lipstick :]
    i wish i could wear red lipstick too, but:
    1. I have no idea how to find the "right shade" for me.
    2. People would flip (like your mother)
    3. I forget D:

    :] anyway, i love that dress!

    You are so lucky that you live where they sell those David & Keith sandals! When I saw a blogger wearing them I searched high and low on the internet for those until I realized that they're pretty much only sold in Asia. =/ Which makes sense -- I've only seen bloggers from places like Singapore and Thailand with the sandals. So jealous!
