Sleepless Travels Reloaded

First up…my first toki arrived from the US!
Thanks Alice~~~~~~

Then I went to town and snagged some more Cue at the special Cue Club member’s extra 30% off already discounted items!

-does some quick calculations-

That’s an original price of $633 vs normal discount price of $316.50 (50% off) vs the price I eventually got them all at which is $221.55 (30% off)! w00t!

Hit the jump for way too much narcissism.

Satin-y shift dress. It’s a fun dress. Also how stupid do I look indoors in sunnies? Yeah.

Pirates of the Caribbean style! I rather like the top even though I had to get it in size 8 as they didn’t have any more in 6. Probably my favourite outfit of the lot. Casual. It’s too bad I don’t have a Pirata print tokidoki to match up with it…

A black shift dress with drawstring top bit. It’s also got bits of gold thread running through the whole fabric (which has the slight “wrinkley” look. Woohoo no need to iron!). I don’t think you can really see it in the photos though. I like the slight “curry puff” look for my hair XD

And then today another grey top from eBay arrived.

the caped sleeves look a bit narrow eh. and my shoulders now look broad and fat or sth >_<
I look terrible without glasses >_<. I suppose I shouldn't bother pining for lasik surgery anymore then eh?
Jump on my head for 1UP
Grey top has a cute bow at the back

And last week a nice secondhand versatile black top from Cue arrived too (another find from eBay)
And in a few days I expect 2 secondhand dresses (eBay) - one Cue, the other Kelly Barnes, plus some woven leather bangles to arrive too. Happy happy :D. No, actually scary scary >_<

I made the online purchases because I was grumpy and bored - nothing caught my eye during the sales in town - before that special Cue sale. Oh well. I need to sort out my credit card bill now >___<

Also I was forced to use photoshop again since I wasn't satisfied with the photo pile collage function on Picasa. And even though it took me ages to remember how to do simple things (why doesn't my text show uuuuuup T____T. [10mins later] Oh, it's underneath another layer. How to bring it to front!! T______T. [20mins later] All fixed ^_^). But no matter how long I stay away from ps, there is one function I will never forget how to use, and that's the heal/airbrush tool

Thus, the results of my ps endeavour:

I know, I know, the photos suck. My skin looks terrible (I really only airbrushed the worst spots for the polaroids >_>). Bad lighting, terrible backdrop, etcetc. It’s very mafan to take all the photos via timer okay!

P.S. If anyone can tell me how to move the 4th poloroid photo down to the second line it would be much appreciated. I’ve tried doing paragraph, line break tags…even div clear both! It’s driving me insane!!! nvm, all fixed. Reshuffled around photos and somehow that worked.
