What's On My Phone ! (Samsung Galaxy Note 2)

Today I'm gonna the What's On My Phone tag ! My phone is the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 and I've been using it for about 2 months, I've done tons of customizations to make my phone cuter and more girly.
I really love this phone because it's very big and has the very cool S Pen stylus and S Note function, sometimes I get inspirations for my fashion design or my songwriting it really helps that I can pull out my stylus and draw it down immediately. I have A LOT of phone cases, and I will be doing a separate post for the Phone Case Collection tag !

This is my home screen, and I'm so sorry you can't really see the borders because the colour blends completely into the background of my blog. As you can see, I've replaced the usual Whatsapp, Twitter and Instagram app icons with some photos from lookbook.nu and some I took myself. I've also changeed the font of the icon text. How I managed to do these 2 customizations is by installing the GO Launcher app, it has options where you can replace the font and app icons.

I also have 2 additional apps "note" and "music player". Now I shall show you what is in the "note" app.

It's just an app where you can create memo. I really like it because it's so girly and sweet and reminds me of a warm and cozy day with tea and comfy blankets.

And now, let's go into my music player. The icon is just a cute teddy bear (I love stuffed animals) with a crown.

It's just a normal music player. As you can see, I am currently listening to the Lemonade Mouth soundtrack. I loved the movie ! One of the best and most meaningful Disney films I've ever watched, if you haven't watched the movie yet, please do !

This is my menu/applications. Just the usual social networking stuff: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Carousell. Oh ! Carousell is a wonderful app I discovered recently, it's an app based in Singapore that enables people to sell and buy items. I have an account and its @allforcyan, I have a bunch of great items up for sale.

These are my Entertainment apps. I used to really love 4 Pics 1 Word, but I got really sick of it after awhile. The games I play most often are Farm Story and Bubble Mania.
I also have some languages apps which I use to learn Korean and Italian. These are the free versions, but I will be paying to upgrade to the pro version very soon because I'm just about done learning all the words in the free version I have,

I shall now show you what it looks like in my Facebook app. Lately I've hardly been on Facebook, the social networks I've been on constantly are Twitter and Instagram because I can update my tweets and photos very quickly, whereas Facebook takes longer to load. But this is what my theme is like when I log into Facebook:

Let's get on to TWITTER !!

Now let's take a look at what my Twitter looks like. My Twitter is @allforcyan. If you're reading this RIGHT NOW and you haven't followed me yet, please do ! I will give you a cookie ~~

I am so gonna tweet this right now !!!

<<<<< THERE IT IS !!!

<<< and YES I FOLLOW 1D, because I love them <3

Ok ! That is all that's in my phone ! I will be sure to do an updated WHAT'S IN MY PHONE tag if I change a new phone in the coming future. I LOVE YA. BYE !

Mini Haul (April 11th) feat. Tony Moly

Yesterday my friend Tatiana and I went to the most popular shopping destination in Singapore, Bugis Street. As usual, it was super crowded. (Even though it was a weekday and I assumed there would be less people. ) I got these items, and their total cost DID NOT exceed $10 ! Isn't that amazing ? I'm incredibly proud of myself for scoring these awesome deals. The stores at which I got these items were all located in a small section within Bugis Street, named K-Street, the "K" stands for Korean.

Let me give you a quick introduction to what "K-Street" is all about.
In K-street, some stores sell products from Korea (makeup, shoes) while others sell products inspired by the Korean style (clothes, bags)

Tony Moly is a very famous makeup brand in Korea, it is extremely popular with teenagers and adults. Hence the reason why I've always wanted to try their products.
I found a store in K-Street doing a clearance sale on some makeup products, and this Tony Moly product was on a 40% discount.Which is incredible, because the final price came up to $6.50. I couldn't believe it because Tony Moly products are slightly pricey in Singapore due to it originating from Korea, but I managed to get this at such a low price point and huge discount.
I'm so excited to try this out, be sure to check out my review on this product which will be up really soon.

Moving on, the following 3 items are all from the same store, also in K-Street. Tatiana and I were walking by when we saw this huge basket with tons and tons of jewelry, and the lady at the store told us they were having a clearance sale, so everything in that huge basket are a dollar each.So we got really excited and spent a while looking through all the jewelry. And in the end, I picked out these 3 pieces.

Remember my previous post (http://allforcyan.blogspot.sg/2013/04/a-tiny-little-bow.html) where I talked about that silver bow ring I got from Forever 21? Well, after I got the it, I complained about how it's such a pity that Forever 21 didn't produce a gold version.
And then I found this gold ring in K-Street, and it's the exact same design as the silver Forever 21 bow ring, but in GOLD !! I was about to freak out over it, but I kept it cool, because there were other people around and that would be so embarrasing. I can't believe I found this tiny ring in that huge basket. Wait, I've got the story wrong. TATIANA was the one who found it, so thank you Tatiana if you're reading this !!

The second piece I got from the huge basket is this bunny necklace, it's so cute and I've been getting really into cute bunnies lately because I think they're so adorable, and when I look at them I SMILE. I bet you're going like: "Cyan why would you smile at bunny necklaces ??"  I don't know why, it's just one of those weird things I do sometimes :D

The last thing I got is this faux pearl hair clip. I use this to create a really simple hairstyle, I take 2 pieces of hair from the side and then I clip them to the back with this hair clip. Super easy for when I wanna look put together when I'm in a rush for something and my hair's in a mess.

A Tiny Little Bow

I just got this silver bow ring from Forever 21 for $5. I totally flipped out when I saw it because I love bows and anything that's a bow, I just gravitate towards. I've been really wanting the bow ring from Brandy Melville, but we don't have a Brandy Melville here in Singapore, so I got really pleased when Forever 21 came out with a similar design. I went straight down to the store and I bought it.
I know it's going to that staple jewelry piece I will put on with every outfit <3

Early April Fashion Haul ! (Spring Fashion) H&M, Cotton On, OMS, Static Fumes

I've haven't done a fashion haul in a really long time, so I felt I should probably do one today !
Lace is very, very on trend this spring and I am very excited because I LOVE lace, it's just one of those staples I must have in my wardrobe and something that I think looks extremely pretty when worn with just about anything.

Without further ado, LET'S GET STARTED !!

I got a few things from Cotton On. H&M, and some online stores that I love.

Starting with Cotton On, I ordered some items online and they arrived yesterday.

I got this chambray top with the tie-front on sale at $15, what drew me to this piece is that it has the most beautiful LACE panel across the shoulder.

I also got another tie-front top, this time the whole top is LACE, and has this really cool embroidery design. I got this on sale at $15. It also came in a pink version, but I got this white one because I felt that it would look more flattering with my skin tone.

This is a close-up on the design. It's very girly and floral, which is why I can't wait to wear this, because I'm into girly and floral things. And this looks very dressy, even those it's very light and casual.

The last item I got from Cotton On, is this sheer printed shirt with the prairie cluster pattern. I love sheer printed shirts for spring because they're very light and breezy for those hot days when you don't want to be where a slightly heavy layer, but you wanna cover up your arms from the sun.

A closer look on the really cute print.

As you can see, it has a high-low hem. And you guys know how obsessed I am with high-low/asymmetrical hems

Moving on to my H&M purchases !!

Here it is !! My favourite item in this haul, a LACE skirt from H&M. This is so cute ! And I will definitely be wearing this a lot this spring. I will definitely creating a post soon, about how I style this lace skirt. If you have a lace skirt, here are some ideas on how you can wear it !

Denim: Lace looks very good with denim. This combination gives off a country-girl vibe.

Black: Black fabric when worn with lace gives an instant dressy look.

Pastel/neon colours: Pairing the 2 hottest trends this spring, pastel and lace, will look super cute. Trust me ;)

This is $24.90 and it's from H&M's Conscious, eco-friendly collection.

This is the second and last item I got from H&M. A sleeveless top with white patches. You guys know how much I love polka dot print. Look ! This print looks like polka dots, doesn't it?

For the longest time, I've been looking for a black top with white polka dots. so I tried this on at H&M and it fit me really well. It also has a slight peplum bottom. I've always felt like peplum tops wouldn't look that great on me. But this time, I told myself: Suck it up. Cyan. Just suck it up and try it.

And I tried it, and it looked FANTASTIC. Moral of this story, Always Take Risks. Just throw away all your hesitation and give it a go.

Those are the 2 items I got from H&M, the last few items are from some really great online stores, I will be talking about them more below, so be sure to check them out !!

I got this pair of highwaisted shorts from OhMySmoothies. I've been on the look-out for a nice pair of highwaisted denim shorts for awhile now, and I'm so glad I've finally found a pair. They fit very well and are extremely comfortable. Highwaisted shorts are just perfect for the days you wanna dress casually, you can throw on ANY top with these, and they'll look super good and cute ! I also like that this has minimal ripping because I have found out that having a large amount of rippings in your shorts will result in them getting worn out in the wash more quickly, that's just something to take note of when buying your ripped shorts, heavy ripping will result in a more destroyed pair of shorts, literally.

And I've also come up with a bunch of ideas on how to wear these shorts with the spring fashion trends,

I plan to wear them with the 2 tie-front tops I got from Cotton On (at the start of this post) and also the black top with white patches I got from H&M (also from this post).

I got this really cute t-shirt from Static Fumes when they were having a sale. This was $12. It just has the Celine brand name on it.  It's just very simple and I can wear it on any casual day. I first saw this t-shirt in one of EvelinaBarry's YouTube videos, she was wearing it and I was like: I have got to have this t-shirt !! And then I went to Static Fumes' Sale, and I was sifting through all the racks and I saw THIS ! I was stood there having a moment, completely freaking out. I couldn't believe I found it <333

Ok guys !! This is the end of my haul ! I hope you had as much fun reading this as I had creating it.
