The last post became so long I decided to split them and talk about music here. There's so much to say, so this is still a huge read, but I hope you enjoy the playlist! As usual, the songs are all on this playlist embed below. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLR1AX02qOFeAcyScRDP24fx-Q880Ah43l Twice - Love Foolish In the inevitable Feel… Continue reading Media Edit Autumn 2019, #2 (Music)
Media Edit Autumn/Winter 2019, #1
It's been a while (April, in fact??), so I've consumed a fair bit of content since last time. I've split it all up into two posts, so I will be covering TV and music in a separate post. I can't believe we're moving onto a new decade of new things to read and watch and… Continue reading Media Edit Autumn/Winter 2019, #1
[Cafe Break] Le Montblanc, Seoul
One of my goals throughout the holiday is to try and visit as many cafes in Seoul as possible. There are so many, and I want to visit them all while I still have the chance. I spotted Le Montblanc on Instagram, and luckily the friend that came with me also had that cafe on her… Continue reading [Cafe Break] Le Montblanc, Seoul
[Seoul Diary/Reflection] Winter Is… On Its Way
It's November. Every Seoulite has embraced the arrival of jacket season, apart from me. The weather was still hitting 20 degrees C at the end of October. It took a sharper downturn to highs of 14 just recently, depending on the day, and in the evenings it can hit anywhere between 10C and -2C! Somehow,… Continue reading [Seoul Diary/Reflection] Winter Is… On Its Way
[Beauty & Chatter] Seoul Fashion Week S/S 2020
Me? At a Fashion Week? I've not even been to any of the London ones! But, as I am Seoul this year, I felt that I should experience it once or twice at least. You can have a look at my instagram over at @Swanzig_X where I've saved it all as a highlight (it'll likely… Continue reading [Beauty & Chatter] Seoul Fashion Week S/S 2020
[Review] Lilybyred Mood Cheat Kit in Peach Energy
When it came to the later stages of packing my suitcases to go to Korea, I ended up ditching all of my regular eyeshadow palettes. They were all rather big and bulky, and this year I've been leaning away from that and going for much more compact options. My go-to was the small custom palette… Continue reading [Review] Lilybyred Mood Cheat Kit in Peach Energy
[Snap Review] Etude House Honey Cera Lip Oil
It's here, folks! The first beauty post written in Seoul! (I say this although my excitement for Rihanna last week really beat me to the punch.) As we all know, beauty shopping in Seoul is a dangerous venture for the wallet. I've held back a lot so far! But I wanted a daily lip balm… Continue reading [Snap Review] Etude House Honey Cera Lip Oil

[Makeup & Chatter] Fenty Beauty Artistry + Beauty Talk w. RIHANNA
Imagine, y'all. On a regular day scrolling Instagram, I came across this. https://www.instagram.com/p/B0zOmc8BR3l/ [In case the link doesn't work, it's the promo post for Fenty Beauty's Artistry and Beauty Talk with Rihanna] And I thought, "Rihanna is going to be in Seoul. I'm in Seoul at the same time! This is FATE." So I tried… Continue reading [Makeup & Chatter] Fenty Beauty Artistry + Beauty Talk w. RIHANNA
[Thoughts/Seoul Diary] Not Quite Homesick
So my second week of classes is over. I have a long post for you all today - I am back to relying on the blog to get my thoughts out due to the different timezones and sometimes not wanting to bother people with my feelings. I've been telling people I am fine and settling… Continue reading [Thoughts/Seoul Diary] Not Quite Homesick
