Top Five Embellished Headbands
Lately, Bao has been really into sparkly embellished headbands. She claims it adds so much spunk to any wardrobe, and it makes you feel girly pretty at the same time. I think she’s right. Last time I saw her, my eyes went straight to that attention grabbing hair accessory. I have to admit, it made me want one.
In no particular order, here are Bao’s top five most recommended sparkly embellished headbands 
Personally, I like the big bow headband the best.
Forever 21 Bow Headband
$4.80
Forever 21 Funky Felt Headband
$6.80
Forever 21 Spiral Floral Headband
$5.80
Silver Metalic Rose Headband from Sheek Inc.
$32.00
Faceted Posy Headband from Anthropologie
$19.95 on sale
“I got this! My sister bought it for me this weekend, and it’s sooo cute!” says Bao.

I think almost everything on this site that was recommended by Bao have been sold out. She has a keen eye for popular products.

Valentines Mini Cupcakes
February 23, 2010 by cindy
Filed under Super Random
I don’t really cook or bake, so the fact that I went to the effort to make these tiny cupcakes is close to a miracle.
I just used Pillsbury cupcake mix. But I got the tiny baking tin, tiny cupcake cups and a heart sprinkles set all from target. The silver tray was from Crate and Barrel, and it’s nice because it came with a plastic lid. I liked baking these smaller cupcakes because they bake so much faster. They’re so easy to frost too! Coming from a complete amateur like myself, these mini cupcakes are the way to go!
I’m a little late to post but better late than never right? Happy Valentines Day~ Hehe.
New Nude Lips
Nudes are all the rage this Spring, and I love it! I’m not usually a lipstick wearing girl, but I’ll definitely do this velvety shade of nude by Revlon. I love the subtlety and lightweight feel, and to top things off, it’s only $7.99! What a steal! Sorry, Sephora, I think Target, CVS and Walgreens beat ya on this one.
This is also a part of Bao’s Spring 2010 Must Haves so be sure to check out the rest of her awesome recommendations!
Above Product: Revlon Matte Lipstick Nude Attitude 001 $7.99
Bao’s Tip: “Add a little layer of clear lip gloss on top.”

My 7-Eleven Domo Straw Figurine Action Shots!
October 2, 2009 by cindy
Filed under Random Cuteness
I just went to the 7-Eleven on Olympic and La Cienega, and I was surrounded by Domo!
Although I was hoping for a more crazy look and feel (as per my previous post), I must say, I was quite pumped and excited — as you can see from all the pictures I took of the Domo figurines that come with the straw (cost $1.99 and I bought three…).
There are tons more pics below of the actual 7-Eleven store experience with Domo all around. Enjoy!
Domo Trio on my laptop…aren’t they cute? The hip-hop Domo cracks me up. Look at him, so gangsta, haha!
Domo Coffee Cup for 99 cents which I didn’t buy. If it looked exactly like it did in ceramic form, I would have bought 100.
Domo Goods
Spotted the Domo Manga behind a yellow “caution: wet floor” sign… 
Spiced Pumpkin Latte by Domo. Perfect for October
Domo Slurpees of course!
Ahhhh, I just love this guy…<3
Psychedelic Floral Bikini
As I mentioned in a previous post, bright floral prints are the season’s must haves. So I just bought a super cute, psychedelic bikini top and bottom from Forever 21, each for only $12.80!
I didn’t realize how cute the bikinis and swimsuits had gotten at Forever. It reminds me of when Target got so much cuter and my friends and I went crazy over the new styles. Forever has got it down so hurry before they all sell out.
If you don’t’ have your cute swim attire for the 4th of July, stop by your nearest Forever 21. Why not snag the cute Chanel knock-off jelly flip flops while you’re at it.
If you have your holiday outfit but want one anyways, I suggest you go online for a wider selection as a lot of the bikinis have been selling out super fast. You can even get FREE SHIPPING at Forever21.com until July 5th with purchase of swimwear ☺
Bikinis and bottoms fit true to size.

We are a huge fan of Kidrobot toys and these super cutie zipper pulls definitely made our top 10 favs. They are just darling to look at. How could you NOT smile? You can dangle them on your favorite zipper hoodie, gym bag or wallet. These Luckies Zipper Pulls are said to bring TONS of LUCK so take them with you where ever you go!
Mari introduced me to these so I just had to get her some for her birthday
One note: the Luckies Zipper Pulls come in blind boxes so you won’t know which one you’re getting. We think the idea of not knowing what you’re getting is charming. It’s like getting a little surprise gift for yourself. How exciting!
$6.00 at Fredflare (Free Shipping Code Here! – Hurry before it expires!)

How to Spot a Bastard by His Star Sign – Gemini Horrorscope
Did you just break up with your cynical Aquarius boyfriend of 3 long years? Or are you in the dating scene and wondering why that date with the Taurus hottie was so insanely boring?
Well if that’s the case, you must not have read this book, How to Spot a Bastard by His Star Sign. This book gives you the darker, funny side of astrology and horoscopes and describes in detail, all the horrible things about the men you date based upon his star sign. It comically explains why the self absorbed Leos always want to be the center of attention and the reason you got suckered by the Scorpio’s smooth-talking, sadistic manipulations.
We’ll begin by highlighting this month’s star sign, the Gemini. Born in between May 22 and June 21, the men born under this sign are said to be possessed with multiple personalities. Here’s an excerpt directly from the book:
Relationships:
Relationships just don’t hold much appeal or a Gemini bastard. The hours are terribly inconvenient. Intimacy is stifling. Monogamy sucks. Rules are stupid. And as for the thought of spending time alone with you –that’s absolutely terrifying. See, you could get too close. Then you’d want to know what’s deep down inside of him. And he’s afraid to show you because he’s not quite sure what’s down there himself. (Our bets are on a primordial black hole.) This is why he’ll prefer to keep you as just an acquaintance. Even after you’re married to him.
But there’s good reason for his behavior: He’s possessed. No, don’t call the exorcist. This isn’t a medieval chant, holy water, and crucifix thing. It’s worse. A Gemini Bastard has many demons-a multitude of personalities living inside him, each of whom qualifies as a bastard in his own right.
How to Intrigue One
Don’t require sympathy. Or consistency. Or fidelity. Or company. Don’t ask where he is going. Or when he might be coming back. Or if he’s coming back. And don’t’ ever ask anything more emotionally demanding than “how are you?” or “Where did you get your shoes?”
If You Dump Him
Gemini will suddenly discover he definitely does have deep feelings for you. Feelings you have hurt. Terribly. Irrevocably. His heart is shattered. His soul destroyed. His life is meaningless. How could you do this to him, you…you…what was your name again?

Best Liquid Eyeliner by MAC
The MAC PENULTIMATE Eye Liner is seriously the best liquid eye liner I’ve ever come across. I’ve tried the inexpensive liners from CVS to the super expensive liquid liners from Sephora and this is by far the best.
The tip of the penultimate is extremely fine and sturdy so you can line your eyes to your ideal thinness or thickness. It goes on really smoothly and totally reduces my eye-makeup time. It’s also very water resistant. This past weekend, I was doing some dishes and accidentally splashed a bunch of water onto my face but the eyeliner didn’t budge.
Loved it so much, I bought a second as I hear it’s a limited time piece. Go get one! $16.50 at any MAC location
