Gillian makes her day!
For those who remember, Nikky is our little sweet volunteer who is a self-professed "sneakers and denims" girl. Amongst the retro-chic looks we created for her, she also wanted a "sweet taiwanese girl" look.
Heh, so we set our nifty hands working her hair into loose curls with an iron curler. Always curls hair in sections - left and right, within each side, top, upper middle, lower middle and bottom layers of hair. After the hair has "cooled", rub a little bit of hair wax between your palms and use your fingers to comb thro' the curls for an au naturale look. For Nikky, we combed all her hair to one side and fasten it with bobby pins - this gives an interesting twist to the usual curly dolly hair look. At the same time, this has the effect of "slimming" the face down. To complete the hair style, we added a sweet tiffany and white striped hairband, one of the must-have hair accessories...popularized by Taiwan "Cutie Princess" Raine Yang!
For make-up, we used silverish white eye-liner to brighten her eyes. Psst, pearl and shine based eye-liners are more mod than your traditional blacks and browns. To compliment her outfit, we used metallic green shades for her eyes and blend it just slightly beyond her eyelid and on the lower lid as well. Nikky is blessed with nice dimples and a pouty lips, so a cherry shade blush gives a rosy complexion and colorless gloss gives the finishing touch!
The outfit - Nikky picked Gillian from our Buttons and Such collection, commenting on its lovely lace and ribbon frills as "Sweeeeeet!" We paired Gillian with her black three-quarters and cinched it at the hips with a metallic toned wide belt. We told Nikky, her high-cut sneakers would bring her out for a shopping trip, while boots would bring her to more glamourous occasions and locations.
Her verdict - "I Loveeee it! It's my favorite look out of the 3." That makes both of us girl, we love it, too! Whoever said Singaporean girls are not as sweet or well dressed as the others? Nikky's new look is living proof heh. Cheers to that!

Viewed from the right, we see the accentuates with her hair swept to one side - the anchor earring (worn only on this side) and the shiny belt buckle. This side makes the loud and sweeping statement.
Viewed from the left, we see the sweet little lolita - the ribbon from the hairband, her curls bunched together. If you like, you may wear a diamante stud earring on the ear on this side!
Up-closed and up-front, we see the overall combined look. Sweeeet, isn't it? =))
Close-up on the earring - it's one of the hottest, latest accessory type from Korea...The anchor and spoke combination makes for an interesting combination. Wear one for an attitude statement, or both to complete the picture!
