Customize Your Military Tag

Posted on By sweet surrender 2 Comments on Customize Your Military Tag

Was fortunate enough to be given with a military tag for review few weeks back. What is this?!?! Frankly, I didn’t know what it’s for, all I know is that it is a tag which the military men wear on their neck for identification purpose but I didn’t see the point of us having it. After doing a bit of research, it’s pretty versatile I must say.



This is what I got. You can customize it with your own photo, choose the chain and rubber silencer colour that you want. I’ve got no idea what’s the rubber for hahaha… When I opened the package, I was wondering hard on what it’s for *LOL* My mom hook it this way. I didn’t suspect anything wrong as I was still trying to figure out its usage, also didn’t notice what it’s for even after referring to the website, malaysiamilitarytag.com. I’m just too slow to realize ;p


It’s hard to decide what to put for the photo. I ended up using this photo I took back in December 2012 at Lake Tekapo, New Zealand. The best scenery I’ve ever seen.

At the back, you can customize your own message and I had chosen some motivational quotes. Come to think of it, I should instead have the date and location of the photo I’ve taken as a remembrance. Oh well… Doesn’t matter.


This is the correct way to use the round rubber thing, the rubber silencer!

Seeing and holding it physically, it’s pretty durable even though it’s very light in weight. According to the seller, it can last 15 years.

So what can you do with a military tag?
1. Key chain
2. Luggage tag
3. Necklace/Pendent (as fashion statement)
4. ID tag (emergency information, medical purpose, tag for your pet and so on)
5. Souvenir

So… What should I do with mine? Suggestions?

If you are interested to get one or in bulk and customize your very own military tag, just go over to malaysiamilitarytag.com for it.

Finally, In a Kebaya

Posted on By sweet surrender 8 Comments on Finally, In a Kebaya

Remember the kebaya I bought last year in Melaka?

Never had the chance to officially wear it. Finally the chance was here early this month. Wore it to my company’s annual award night but too bad wasn’t entitled to any award or even lucky draw as I’m still new hehehe… Had fun dressed up though.

It’s pretty hard to walk in that sarong without kept stepping on it, I had to pull it up to walk to avoid stepping on it then fell face down! Hahaha…

It’s been a long time not posting photos of myself in this blog aside from Twitpic.

Now that I’ve worn it, it’s not a waste of money not wearing it after buying it. I was so concerned about not having place to wear it to. Good thing for the theme of the night, I got to wear it for the first time and fully dressed up 😉

Enjoy your long weekend! Need to go back to work again tomorrow. Boooo… I was thinking of just buying a flight ticket and fly somewhere for the weekend but I didn’t. I miss the days when I can just go off anytime anywhere without worrying about coming back to mountain pile of work or responsibilities.

By the way, remember I mentioned about the haunted hotel we stayed during our road trip? Still got no mood to share about it *LOL*

That’s all for now. Busy week ahead!

KATE GOLDISH EYES PK-1

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on KATE GOLDISH EYES PK-1

This post is supposed to post in June but I only got the mood to experiment with it recently. Was lucky to be one of those bloggers who got hold of KATE GOLDISH EYES, one of the latest eye makeup palettes from Kate. It was launched in May 2013.

KATE GOLDISH EYES contains two unique gold pearl powders – Real Gold Pearl, a pure gold pearl powder with 0.1% 24k REAL GOLD, and Nuance Gold Pearl, a bright pearl powder with a hint of gold. Combined in a beautiful eyeshadow palette, the two powders create a gorgeous shimmer that is glamorous and sophisticated. KATE GOLDISH EYES blends well with all skin tones to create stunning eyes.

Remember KATE’s event that I blogged about?

I was given with PK-1 while another one which I won was also PK-1. What’s the odd of getting two same palettes? I found out other bloggers got different colours, lucky them. Hence, I can only talk about PK-1 which is pink.

Top left to top right: Shiny gold(D) and soft beige(A)
Bottom left to right: Deep brown(B) and color gold(C)



A: Soft beige
B: Deep brown
C: Color gold (there are 4 colours to choose, mine is pink. Other choices are blue, gold, and white)
D: Shiny gold

The colour doesn’t look obvious right? What to do? The palette I was given was in natural tone. It’s actually what I like. However, I was hoping I can get another either white or gold. Not blue for me… I just don’t look good in that and it’s hard to match.

You don’t see I mark A in the photo as I was using it as base so it’s covered by B, C, D. However, soft beige can be good to be used alone to brighten up your eyes and achieve the no makeup look but only apply minimally, not too much.

The shiny gold is pretty impressive and versatile. Just a dab on the middle of your eyelid for the day look or to go to work while you can layer more to transform it into night look for that finishing touch.


Can you see the shiny gold effect? Without it, my eyes won’t pop and look bigger. Even the photo on the left that was taken with my phone was able to capture it.

While for color gold, I used it for highlight under the edge of my brow most of the time. You can also use it for the entire lid.


This is my original eyes LOL… No double eyelid tape. With my hidden double eyelids, it’s just too hard to play around with eye shadows, can’t even see the colour. Also makes my eyes look heavy on the top, flat, small, and tired. With a dab of shiny gold, it managed to give my eyes a bit of life and dimension.

Let’s see how eye makeup trend transformed from 2008-2013:
2008: Deep and contoured
2012: Colourless, clear, and contoured
2013: Sophisticated eye makeup combining gold colour with other colours

Nevertheless, for me, these trends are timeless. I love looking natural than having so much colour on my face.

My verdict? I absolutely love KATE GOLDISH EYES! Just this one box, you can take it from the day to night to anywhere. The retail price is RM59.

tHe Spring’s RAD Campaign Presented by Levi’s

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on tHe Spring’s RAD Campaign Presented by Levi’s

It’s been a long time not attending fashion event. Seriously long! Was lucky to be invited to tHe Spring’s RAD Campaign last night. It was attended by up to 500 Levi’s customers and the highlight of the night was a fashion show by Levi’s showcasing their new Levi’s Revel, the jeans designed to be their most comfortable and best-looking jeans made for women.

A pop-up bar was set up too! It’s called the Indigo Room. Guests were served with Indigo Ale (cocktail made of tuak and ‘bunga telang’). I didn’t drink at all. I would never reject free alcohol but this time I rejected it *LOL* Just wasn’t in the mood to drink at all. So I have no idea how it tasted.


Finally, the fashion show started with Deborah Henry welcoming the guests.


You know you’ve not taken proper runway shoots when all the photos turned out so-so -.-” I lost track on how long. More than 2 years! I even cannot remember how to set my camera setting for it! Camera was rather low in battery too so I didn’t dare to play too much with it else it will be continuous shoot most of the time.


Didn’t manage to get a good spot for it too, that’s why none of them facing me hahaha…





There’s few more not in this post because they were too blur or I couldn’t get any proper shoots of them.

After that, there’s dance performance by Soul Dance Academy.

Was lucky to be able to take a photo with Deborah (Miss Universe Malaysia 2011). Goodness! She’s so tall! I was on my 3-inch heels some more! Imagine that, she too was on high heels. Oh… I’m so tiny…

The Indigo Room was where the guests mingled around, pretty nicely setup I must say. The best thing was that no smoking allowed! If only there’s place like this in Kuching.

There’s a section setup at tHe Spring for anyone who is interested to try out the new Levi’s Revel. You even get to have your photos taken 360 degree to see how you look like in the jeans. Better go there early, the queue was pretty long!

Here’s some of the designs that I personally like. Which is your favourite?

So what’s the Revel is all about?

Levi’s® Revel jeans use exclusive Liquid Shaping Technology that has been fused into the denim through innovative design techniques like screen-printing. The Liquid Shaping Technology controls the fabric’s stretch in strategic areas for a figure-hugging fit that lifts and defines your body and gives you a beautiful, shaped silhouette. While other brands have jeans with shaping panels or inserts that many women find uncomfortable, the magic of Levi’s® Revel jeans is in the liquid, which holds you in at the same time as being super comfortable.

The denim for Levi’s® Revel jeans has been carefully selected, developed and tested to make the jeans feel as great as they look. Levi’s® Revel denim delivers four-way stretch that perfectly enhances a woman’s shape and moves with her body. A super-soft hand feel and superior memory retention help the jeans keep their shape as well as hers.

Interested? Head over to your nearest Levi’s store to try them out.
