“Christmas is forever, not just for one day, for loving, sharing, giving, are not to put away like bells and lights and tinsel, in some box upon a shelf. The good you do for others is good you do yourself.”

We'll keep this post short and sweet as we are trying to keep up and upload as many pictures as we can. In a few days, you'll be seeing more pictures - it will be photos of us taken by others during the last two months. Excuse us for not posting often, we'll try not to ditch again. You are probably wondering what we've been up to other than hanging with friends and getting ready for University. Besides all those cliche things, we've decided to get our own personal TUMBLR. We love to do things together and of course, we have a common interest and that is Tumbling on our own time.

Live Your Life

The Summer of 2011 has been extremely good for the both of us; we've been preparing for University, and working almost everyday to save up for our California trip as well as school. Due to this we've had trouble keeping up with our blog. We are sincerely sorry! Now that September is around, we should be able to blog and update more :D

We'll make it quick ~ we just wanted to share some of our summer adventures and lastly, put emphasis on the motto: live your life. To sum it up, check the picture below.

Easy Come, Easy Go - Promenade!

Thought we should play a little catch up and introduce our prom dresses! Olivia's was found in a tiny boutique on a bridal street in downtown while Boyu's was created by the brilliant Tony Bowls! All in all it was a magnificent & memorable experience. Our childhood fascinations with this night became reality; after 17 years of waiting, we finally got to rock some prom swag ;)

“To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.”

Much Love,
B & Liv

Growing Up One Step At A Time

We've been away for a while! 4 months have gone by and a lot of things have happened in our lives. We have successfully graduated high school and we will both be attending the same University next year as well as be in the same faculty (therefore our fashion blogging will not cease to stop even in our next chapter of studies, sororities & parties). We are so dearly sorry to have not paid enough attention to one of our fav hobbies but we are back with a vengeance!

We want to make a new promise to ourselves; all we ever wanted was a blog to show our true spirits and a fresh new canvas to exude our own creative juices when it comes to fashion. So this is to one thing that we can control, reinvent our blog & dedicate the outfits of this summer that we don't ever want to forget, the lessons we will learn, our fashion inspirations and what makes us happy in life.

We pinky promise ;)

Yours truly, B & Liv

Now that 'GLOW' Fashion Show is over, we are

free. For the past weeks, we've been very stressed. Nothing is easy we tell you! The 'GLOW' Fashion Show would not have happened without the different sponsorships. Here's what we learned from organizing a fashion show: even if you don't believe that it'll happen, it will in the end. Therefore, try your best while doing the job.

Be great at your job. One of the secrets to finding work/life balance is being satisfied with your job. If you absolutely hate what you are doing then you won’t be able to find any balance in life. We all choose jobs based on our needs, skills and desires. If there is at least something that you love about your job then you should remind yourself about it as often as possible. When you are happy with what you are doing you are able to produce results, generate ideas and be great. Focus on being productive, having indispensable knowledge in your field and being responsible with your tasks. Wanna read more?

When life gives you seeds, grow a beautiful garden. And when it flashes you an opportunity for love, take it. Whether its with a brand new puppy, friend, distant family member, or even with someone special, let your heart guide you for once. Life is precious, so let yourself be happy and breathe with satisfaction that you feel loved by the people around you. And when it comes to all the single people out there, just know that somewhere, there is someone waiting for you. Believe in fate and hope, because without it, the world can seem like nothing but a cold place.
