Hey Beautiful(s)! If you haven’t already noticed, I’ve added a new Facebook Page plugin on the left side of this page. I’ve created this page for you ladies (and gentlemen) to get first hand news on the latest free samples, blog posts and the gamut of privileges that you can enjoy as Honeyz Readers! How fantastic is that?! 😀 I’ll also be sharing the latest styles (from new looks to new lines) fresh off the streets of New York, London, Paris, Tokyo and Milan as well as ubiquitous but timeless fashion trends on this new Facebook page! How can you miss all these right?? Here’s the ‘Like’ button! 😛 New look for my blog! If you have forgotten the old look, here’s a little recap. It used to have a background decorated with crowns and crosses motifs accompanied by an image of a young and jaunty Honeyz mascot. Now, I’ve replaced them with a background that resembles a blusher palette and a more sophisticated version of the Honeyz mascot. I’ve also perked it with a new slogan ‘Defining the Lifestyle of the Contemporary Woman’. 🙂 Originally, I’ve wanted to create a logo for Honeyz. So I sought the help of my good friend, Yong Thye (who has a very creative streak in him). And voila! Not only did he give me a logo….. (FYI, this was the logo he created.) He also gave me a brand new banner! (He’s the best best best friend in the world!) However, the new banner did not agree with the previous background color at all….. Totally wrong… So we began to seek for a new background of a contrasting color. And there you go! A new background that was actually inspired by my Etude House’s LUCIDarling Blusher. The blusher has this graduating palette with different tones of pink. And I love the design of the blusher palette especially the ribbon closure. In addition, it smells great too! Not very pigmented….. Ok ok a little carried away here. Saving these deets for my next blusher review! *wink* Back to the new look… I really like this new blog skin. The palette background, stylish mascot and slogan reflects the purpose and the foci (fashion, beauty and travel) of my blog more clearly. Well, I hope you guys like my Facebook page and my new blog skin. (Anyone spot a pun there? :P) Keep on glowing! I’ll see you soon! Love, Juliana #facebookpage #newblogskin

As the IT-girl of the 21st century, the Honeyz Belle constantly exudes confidence and display her innate capability to nail the perfect look for every occasion. Personally, I think having awe-inspiring skin is the first step to becoming this next IT-girl. I guess that doesn’t come as a huge surprise as you’ll notice that the people you first meet usually gaze at your face before they ‘scrutinize’ the rest of your body, i.e. Outfit, accessories, etc. and impressions are imprinted from there. However, perfecting the complexion has always been a very challenging terrain for most girls. So, the solution to instant perfect skin? The foundation. The term ‘foundation’ in makeup isn’t all vain talk. Webster defined ‘foundation’ as a basis upon which something stands or is supported. Well yes. In make up language, it literally forms the base of your entire make up. Your make up ‘falls apart’ when your ‘foundation’ is not up to mark. And this brings me to my second Honeyz Foundation Review. This time, I’m going to review the L’Oreal True Match Foundation. I’ve used many liquid foundations before and so far only this one kept me loyal. I have an olive toned complexion, hence the yellowish undertones of the G3, Golden Beige of this foundation blends into my skin pretty well and it does not create the bi-colour effect between the neck and the face. Also, I usually look pasty in photos. The foundation adds radiance to my face and makes me look much healthier in pictures. Just thought you might be interested… I wore the True Match foundation for the recent Honeyz Fashion Review Shoots and I like the natural and glowing look that it created! In this part of the world (referring to Southeast Asia), the foundation comes with a pump. I understand that the foundation comes in a bottle in many U.S. States. Anyway, back to the pump. I dread using foundations from bottles as it’s difficult to regulate the amount of liquid foundation that flows from the bottle and it creates an atrocious mess afterwards. The pump solves this problem. So thumbs up to that! Here’s another gaping fact about the foundation. It is extremely waterproofed. My good friend, Claudia, swears by this. Claudia and I We were in Bintan, Indonesia recently for a beach getaway. On one occasion, we decided to test the waterproof properties of our make up. Some of us were using Dior, Revlon and L’Oreal Two Way Cake and Claudia used the L’Oreal True Match Foundation for the experiment. So after 2 hours of soaking in a chlorinated pool, Claudia was the only one who still had her make up stubbornly on. The blusher on the apples of her cheeks were still highly visible! (Yup, they stayed on like super glue.) So there you go! True Match’s adhesive and water resistant properties proven! I also noticed shimmers in the foundation when it’s in the bottle, like tiny golden glitters. But when applied, they disappear. Less concentrated I guess. I slathered on some foundation for your reference. So no worries, it does not create the glittery effect on face. It’s still suitable for everyday use. The glitter is probably the True Match Foudation’s secret to its blendable properties. Coverage wise, it’s light to medium. I thought it fails on the coverage part. My blemishes and freckles are still pretty visible after application. It also has a rather short lifespan. It usually lasts 3 hours on my oily complexion. And then poof! It disappears and you have to re-apply again. In a way, I feel like Cinderella’ when I wear it as I have to remind myself to touch up the make up when the ‘optimal time frame’ is up. In addition, I experience mild breakouts from using this foundation at times. This is weird as it claims to be non-comedogenic and non-acnegenic. 🙁 I’m wearing the L’Oreal True Match Foundation in G3, Golden Beige in this picture. This picture was not enhanced in anyway. So this is how the foundation looks like under natural sunlight. It retails at Watsons at SGD 30.90. Overall, I would give this baby an 8 out of 10. Despite some of the negative factors pointed out, I can’t deny that this is an absolute godsend. No foundation feels more like second skin than this one. Moreover, this foundation had tide me over countless meetings, dates, photo shoots and dinner functions. 🙂 Ok. It’s time to serve the dessert of this post – Make up tips for liquid foundations! If you have an oily complexion, you may want to consider purchasing liquid foundations that are a shade lighter than your skin. This is because the foundation tends to turn a shade darker once it mixes with the skin’s natural oils. For the most natural look, try to match your foundation to your neck. You may perform a foundation test by first swiping on three different shades (a light, medium, and dark one for comparison) from the top of the jawline down to the neck. The one that disappears into the skin and matches the neck most closely is the one for you. Avoid foundations that have pinkish tones. They almost always look unnatural and masklike, calling attention to the fact that your neck and face are not the same shade. Instead, find a foundation with a yellowish undertone which will help to balance out any redness in the face. Use less foundation. Most people create an opaque veil of mismatched color when they slap on too much foundation. Use tinted moisturizers instead. Brighten up with some bronzer and blush if you think your foundation is too sheer to your liking. Alrighty. That’s all for this L’Oreal True Match Foundation review post.

Apa Kabar Honeyz Bunnies! Today, I’m gonna shed the ‘Beauty Junkie’ and ‘Aspiring Fashionista’ personas and put on my ‘Wanderluster’ hat. (Ignore the lack of parallelism.) Yes. A travel review FINALLY. In particular, my favourite beach destination. Before I dive into this review, I decided to do a mini survey with my good girlfriends on where their favorite beach destination is. Here are the responses. Favourite beach destination: The Maldives Favourite beach destination: Six Senses Ninh Van Bay Favourite beach destination: Perhentian Island Favourite beach destination: Island of Coron Gorgeous choices, ladies. Here comes my choice…. Bali’s Ahimsa Beach Resort Jimbaran! There’s not a scintilla of doubt that this fine resort is my most favourite beach getaway. It is highly recommended on Trip Advisor and is ranked number one among twenty-three others under the ‘Specialty lodging in Jimbaran’ category. If you’re wondering what’s the big deal? Well here’s the biggie… Lobby (In the evening) I was greeted by the simple and tiny lobby. (Well… The ‘big deal’ is not exactly here.) Ok. Honestly, when I first entered the lobby, I wasn’t too impressed. In fact, I started to worry about the state of the villa. Could it be crammy and dull like the lobby? Wait for it… Wait for it….. (anxious tone) There you go! Boy was I wrong about the villa! It was huge and spacious coupled with a nice aromatherapy scent. Well, I guess the lobby was probably built small on purpose to give way to the huge villas. Villa (In the evening) Love the plunge pool! I just have to do this. A cute kitchen. Entertainment systems in the living room. DVDs may be rented free-of-charge at the concierge. There’s a garden in the bathroom! Isn’t it beautiful? Gotta snap a picture! Villa (In the day) I woke up the next morning to this. Breakfast was already prepared by the Ahimsa’s staff! Totally famished. Gobbled my delicious breakfast like a hungry monster. Villa in the day. Awww.. love the tranquility. Camwhoring in this beautiful villa. 😛 Ok. Lotsa camwhoring. I can’t help it! It’s not everyday that I get to lodge in such a beautiful place. Walkway to the lobby One last camwhoring picture? Outside the resort Heading out! Explored the hotel beside the Ahimsa Beach. Interesting monument Headed to the beach. Enhanced the colour slightly and it turned into this. Whoa… I came back later in the evening to this. It was a little surprise from the resort (as part of its honeymoon package). Can I bring this home? BBQ Lunch in the resort! I love my life! And a “live band” to go with the wonderful lunch. How good can this get?? A clarification. The ‘live band’ was not part of the package. I think it was 40USD per hour. The rates are available at the concierge and it’s based on availability of the musicians. I went to the shopping and entertainment spots nearby and it wasn’t that fantastic. I would suggest going all the way out of the Jimbaran area for entertainment (e.g. Rock Bar) or just stay in the hotel (It’s good enough. :P) For further information on the resort and its rates, you may consult their website at www.theahimsa.com . Here’s a little hint to my next travel review. As if it’s not obvious enough! Till next time! Love, Juliana #travel #resorts #ahimsabeach #beautifulvillas #bali #travelreview

In the twinkling of an eye, it has already been 3 weeks since I ‘penned’ my first post. I’m glad you guys have enjoyed what I’d shared so far. Thank you for all the encouraging messages. I truly appreciate your ardent support. Please do continue to watch this space for more beauty, fashion and travel anecdotes! And with this, I’m giving you your second dose of Honeyz Fashion Review. In this post, we’ll be reviewing apparels from famous Singapore blogshops, Agneselle and Love Bonito as well as Britain’s highly reputable high street chain, Topshop. Personally, I’m a huge fan of Agneselle and Love Bonito. Agneselle for their affordable price and great quality and Love bonito for their state-of-the-art designs. Without further ado, I present you Fashion Review: Agneselle, Love Bonito, Topshop Agneselle Love Bonito Topshop Photo Credits Photography Models Judy, UK 4, 155cm JW, UK 6, 153cm Your humble blogger, UK 6, 161cm I hope you have enjoyed this review. Lastly, I would like to clarify that Honeyz fashion reviews are not advertorial posts. I do not endorse any of those brands featured. Rather, I’m trying to show you how normal girls (girls with non-supermodel statures) look like in clothing from these famous boutiques. This is to aid you in making informed purchase decisions when it comes to updating your fashion wardrobe. 🙂 Once again, thank you for reading and I beg for your continued support. 😛 Tata!

Honeyz….. I’m home! I’m gonna try something different in this post. No beauty reviews this time. Instead, I’m going to do a fashion review of online store, Le Dezire ‘s best sellers. Eunice, founder of Le Dezire, was kind enough to give me some of her signature pieces for this fashion review. You can’t believe how grateful I am as she only have limited pieces left for each of them. 😀 Anyway, instead of doing the conventional way, i.e. Pose in front of a mirror and take pictures, then write my afterthoughts (which was my initial idea), I decided to do a fashion spread kind of review with the help of some friends. 🙂 I’ve been a huge fan of fashiontoast.com and lookbook.nu for the longest time. The beautiful and artsy fashion spreads never failed to awe me (In a good way). So for this fashion review, I decided to try a ‘fashiontoast’ inspired photo spread. Here are the pieces Le Dezire gave me. Very pretty outfits eh? Now that you’ve seen the Supermodel look. Here’s the Mortal version. Enjoy! Noticed my sky blue nails in the photos? (Well, I hope you did!) Got them done at Nail Indulgence De Beau, No. 1 Liang Seah Street, #02-14. I enjoyed the warmth of their service. Very friendly and accommodating. You can contact them at +65 6333 1687 to arrange an appointment. 🙂 Photo Credits Photographers Samuel – The Seasoned Photographer Yong Thye – The Passionate Photographer Alex – The Noob-turned-Pro Photographer Models Pretty Judy She’s a UK 4, standing at 155cm. Lovable JW She’s a UK 6, standing at 153cm. That’s me. I’m a UK 6, standing at 161cm. I hope you liked the fashion spread. 🙂 Well, I thought it would be interesting to also show what went on ‘Behind the Scenes’. 😛 So here you go. Super Star Judy! Look at all those paparazzi! “Is my photo ok??” “I want to look that sexy too!” In the dressing room – All made up and ready for the photo shoot! On your mark… Get set…. Go!! ‘Photo-whoring’ while waiting…. More ‘photo whoring’… And MORE photo whoring!! Ok I think that’s enough. Soaking in the sun. Ok that’s a wrap! Greatly appreciated… Lastly, I want to thank SimVideo for their excellent photography and photo effects services. A renowned wedding and corporate photographer in Singapore and JB. And Le Dezire for their beautiful clothes. Thank you all for reading. See you and God bless! Love, Juliana #fashion #review #Photography #ledezire #fashionreview #photoshoot

In this 21st century, every woman seeks to strip away the cliches surrounding them. They’re vigorous and confident. And this is the spirit of ‘Honeyz‘. ‘Belle’ is a woman who’s admired for her beauty and charm. So a Honeyz Belle is a confident and intelligent woman of the 21st century who’s not afraid to express her desires, show off her charm and become the belle of every ball. I believe all of you is a Honeyz Belle so henceforth, I’m going to call you ladies ‘Honeyz Belles’! So Hello Honeyz Belles! As my blog title suggests, I’m gonna review THE imperative tool to pretty peepers – Mascaras. Check out their faux lashes! Mascaras are an important part of make up as they define our eyes and gives them that ‘little burst of energy’ to our otherwise dull-looking eyes. And whenever the topic of mascaras is brought up, I hear Loreal, Lancome and Maybelline being mentioned almost 90% of the time. So for this mascara review post, I’m gonna leave them out of the picture since we all know that they are good enough. 🙂 And review the underdogs instead – The Face Shop, Majolica Majorca and Sephora. The Face Shop’s Extreme Volume Mascara I started using this last year and have been loyal to it ever since. I love its non-clumping and lengthening qualities. It separates the lashes well and thus does not produce the ‘lump-of-lashes’ look. Best of all, this mascara is smudge-proof! 😀 Panda eyes from smudged mascara is definitely not a pretty sight (especially if you’re on a hot date) so this is an absolute hot favourite for me. The slight curvature of the mascara wand is also perfect for my oval shaped eyes. The Face Shop’s Extreme Volume Mascara Wand The mascara creates a soft and natural look that is great for daily activities such as work and school. Here’s how it looks like on my naked eye. Wearing The Face Shop’s Extreme Volume Mascara on make-up free eyes I like that it darkens and lifts my lashes slightly to produce this very natural look. Well, here comes the trubs. It is relatively difficult to achieve the really dramatic look even after a few more coats of this mascara. Here’s the example, After numerous coats of Faceshop’s Extreme Volume Mascara Not very impressive, isn’t it? So if you want to achieve those ‘Drama Goddess’ look with your eyes, I suggest you opt for falsies or simply purchase the Big Three’s mascaras and pound on the eyeshadows. * Big Three = Loreal, Lancome, Maybelline All in all, I like the great qualities of this mascara and its affordable price. (Johor Bahru’s Faceshop retails this at RM 45 which translates to SGD 18.) Majolica Majorca’s Lash Expander Frame Plus Majolica Majorca Lash Expander Frame Plus ‘Majolica Majorca’ is quite a mouthful. I’m going to call it ‘MJ’ in this post as it’s famously known for. (No, not Michael Jackson’s acronym) MJ is a sub-brand of Shisedo and it’s much more affordable than it’s parent brand’s products. This is terrific news for most of us who can’t afford Shisedo’s luxe make up all the time. 😀 Ok here comes my review. I bought this product due to friends’ recommendations and its cute packaging. (I’m a typical girl, aesthetic qualities are extremely important to me.) I must say it’s pretty easy to apply and lengthens my lashes quite a bit with its fibers. The fibers were attached to the end of my lashes upon application and created this ‘longer lashes’ illusion. It has this gooey texture that does not dry up too soon unlike other mascaras. This allowed ease of re-application, which in turn reduced the clumping effect that re-applications usually caused. In particular, I love the design of the wand. Majolica Majorca Lash Expander Frame Plus Wand As you can see, it has this mini comb on it that enables me to target even the tiniest lash. Great for application on the lower lashes too! Well, everything about this mascara is great but here comes the nightmare… The removal of the mascara. Removing this mascara was a huge hassle. It’s stubborn as hell! The fibers stick to your lashes like super glue and they wouldn’t budge even after much (gentle) rubbing with my make-up remover. Many times, I could still spot clumps of the remaining fibers on my lashes the next morning. I guess the excessive lengthening fibers isn’t such a great idea after all. Sephora Mascara Sephora Mascara This mascara darkens, separates and thickens my lashes pretty well. It has slight lengthening properties too. One plus point – its pretty easy to remove even with non-eye make up removers. Here’s a picture of the wand. Sephora Mascara Wand I did not like the wand though. It’s big and coarse and it irritated my eyelids a few times during application. I underestimated its frame. As such, I don’t think it’s suitable for Asian eyes. Another bummer of this mascara? Photo Credits to hollywoodtoday.net The panda eye look! I noticed bad smudging after hours of wearing the mascara. Very unkempt. In conclusion… I think the diamond in the rough is definitely The Face Shop’s Extreme Volume Mascara. I’m a no fuss person so I’m no huge fan of exasperating make up removing procedures. In addition, I don’t think any one wants to meet a big client or go on a hot date worrying about the state of her make up constantly. Removal and longevity of make up is extremely important to me. Once again, I’m going to end this post with some useful mascara tips for you beautiful ladies. Never try a mascara at a makeup store as there’s a risk of infection. To brighten the whites of your eyes, try using blue mascara. To prevent clumps, remove excess mascara from wand before application. To prevent smearing of mascara, dust a layer of loose powder under and over the eyes. Alrighty. That’s all for this mascara review. Thanks for reading. 🙂 I’m already preparing for my next post – A fashion review. I’ll be back sooner than you can say ‘Honeyz’! So watch out for it! Love, Juliana Disclaimer: Do keep in mind that reviews are entirely subjective. It is normal to have differing views. So please don’t hate me if I didn’t speak well of your favourite product.

Back in 2014, I gave it my all when I began planning my Disney-themed wedding . I practically used every waking moment to brainstorm ideas and fulfill wedding-related errands. You probably already know – I am over the moon at how the wedding turned out. However, due to the intense preparation process, I also began to rest on my laurels afterwards. I felt like I needed a lot of rest time after my nuptials and soon I found myself shopping more than working. Haha! I became complacent and was literally dragging my heels to work. Here comes the interesting part… Who would have ever thought shopping could be inspiring too? I was visiting one of my favorite fashion stores, Kate Spade, and somehow the little flamingoes and donut purses ignited a creative spark for a new project. That one shopping trip not only inspired me, it also helped me overcome my procrastination and see everyday objects in a different light. Before you know it, I was back at work planning Honeyz Cube ‘s new repertoire of services and products. And today, I’m very proud to present to you Honeyz Paint House , a unique and stylish new photo studio and lifestyle event space and YOUR very own getaway and creative retreat. We’re all about living life to the fullest and celebrating the everyday! And of course, I had to host a Donuts and Flamingoes themed party to introduce Honeyz Cube’s new little sister to our fellow blogger friends and partners. And guess what? We decided to hold the party on our very first wedding anniversary. How apt! Click this way ↓ to the fun please! Prepping for the Big Day! Planning this party was no easy feat. We spent two months conceptualizing the concept, getting partners onboard and designing the invites and banners. Then we spent another two gruelling days printing press releases, info sheets and table mats. (Yup, we DIY-ed our table mats. :P) Printing the press release and brand info sheets. Decorating the tables. And finally, we’re ready for our very big debut at Honeyz Paint House. Welcome to our Donuts and Flamingoes Party! Yay! We loved how the decor turned out. Do you? 😛 Since we still had some time before our guests arrived, we decided to do some last minute checks for the party, to make sure every welcome packet was filled with all our sponsors’ goodies. And here’s my knight in shining armour who’s not only my loving husband but also my number one supporter in everything I do. Thank you so much, B! Muuaaah! :* Of course, all of this also wouldn’t have been possible without the support of our generous partners: For Beloved One 寵愛之名 Jacqueline Burchell Singapore  Nail Indulgence De Beau Clara Song Make Up TACT.sg Tact.sg also sponsored my outfit for the party. Here I’m wearing Tact.sg’s Flare Flair blouse from their M O N O collection. 🙂 Alexander Yuen: A Finer Side of Magic Nelson Manlises Photography Whimsical Patisseries OCOO Singapore Skycart Skycart sponsored our goodie bags, cute decor as well as these fun props below! Now let the party begin! Our cutest guest just arrived! And she brought donuts cakes too! Yay! Special shoutout to  Agnes , Sydney and Yan Teng ! Thank you for your thoughtful gifts! It was really nice catching up with one another. Check out those happy smiles! This is not the most flattering photo but.. I’m absolutely in love with the cool bell sleeves of my new crop top from Tact.sg! No, I wasn’t scratching my armpits. Haha! I was explaining some of the cool features of my new top which is also very Britney from the noughties. Don’t you think? Have you ever wondered what boyfriends do when their girlfriends socialise with their girlfriends? Well, evidently, they chill on beach chairs and play with their phones! Haha! Everyone couldn’t get enough of Whimsical Patisseries’ pretty dessert table! Our guests also got to try Jacqueline Burchell’s latest nail colors that are now also available on our Cube Store . Hmm… Why’s everyone taking photos of my profile? Because I’m wearing flamingo earrings! How befitting! 😛 #flamingoearrings Alright, enough of the profile photos! Let’s take a group shot! Wait! Do you see that epic photo bomber?! One of the highlights of the party was Alexander’s sleight of hand magic tricks, especially the one where he made our Honeyz Paint House logo appear on a poker card! How cool is that? Our audience looked astonished and impressed! And then, it was time to open the ceremony and introduce Honeyz Paint House formally. And we introduced our new concept with this video we made a few days prior. Psst! It was actually also the first time we played anything on our 52-inch screen. How exciting! Yay! Our audience looked pretty happy and hyped up. The stakes are high now. We need to keep this going so we upped the ante by inviting magician and sleight of hand extraordinaire, Alexander, to perform some of his popular stage magic illusions. Our guests looked impressed and entertained! Yay! Mission accomplished. Then it was back to mingling with the girls and trying our sponsors’ awesome products. Jacqueline Burchell and Tact.sg also kindly sponsored some prizes for our lucky draw! Congratulations to all winners!

Can’t believe our last update about #Bobblianahome was almost a year ago. To help you recall, this was our last post – Our New Home . And now, it’s time for another #Bobblianahome entry to clue you in on our latest developments. Yay! You last heard we were going to update all the fixtures, lightings and appliances and our plans included – creating a Dolby Atmos home theatre, getting a convertible dining/pool table, building a fireplace and many many more!Can’t forget – also styling the ultimate Girl Cave! Haha! Well, we did get a dining/pool table and a fireplace but to create a a Dolby Atmos home theatre, we’ll need to upgrade our electrical system and rewire the entire house. The project is a home-tastrophe, I tell you! This means our house will need to check into design rehab and get a complete makeover. Initially, we wanted to take matters into our own hands and design the place ourselves. It can’t be that hard, can it? So we started picking our brains to conceptualize everything, from the shelves to the faux ceilings. Well, of course our design didn’t take into account important structural factors that impact the existing concealed pipes and wire system. Another important component is project management. We had to draw up a comprehensive construction schedule with all our prospective contractors. This we reckon, is going to upset our stress meter even further. Finally, we decided to hand all our designs to an Interior Designer our friends recommended and guess what? He came up with some pretty badass 3D drawings within weeks! I thought it would be fun to show you what they look like before we embark on this crazy Interior Designing ride. Click to check out the photos! We wanted a cozy European setting so our designer added a touch of modern Edwardian elements in the designs. Here we go! The Boudoir (aka Master Bedroom) Present State: Designer’s 3D Impression: Master Bathroom Present State: Designer’s 3D Impression: Living and Dining Room Present State: Designer’s 3D Impression: You might be wondering why on earth we would need a fireplace in Singapore? Well, here is one reason: Over here at the Stryker household, we are huge Christmas fans, and nothing warms the cockles of the heart more than seeing a fireplace surrounded by Christmas goodies! The faux fireplace truly brought the magic of Christmas into our home and was an extra special treat for my hubby, reminiscent of his days as a little boy growing up in the UK. As seen on my Snapchat: Who knows, maybe one day our own kids will be just as excited by it. 😛 Kitchen Present State: Designer’s 3D Impression: Guest Room Present State: Designer’s 3D Impression: Girl Cave (aka Study Room) Present state: Please don’t judge me. I know this is an insane mess. I’ve a good reason for this.I moved all my shelves to Honeyz Paint House  so for the time being, I can only house all our DVDs and products erm… on the floor. :p Designer’s 3D Impression: I’m actually pretty happy with most of his designs except this last one for the Girl Cave. Think it looks more like a Man Cave now. Haha! I have some ideas that I gathered from Pinterest for my Girl Cave so I’ll probably be adding my own girly touch to it. Stay tuned for the next #Bobblianahome post! Meanwhile, for instant snippets of our new home, follow this tag #Bobblianahome on Instagram. Have fun!
