Some Anya Love

Christmas is just around the corner! 3 days to go to be exact!! I'm feeling excited already :P Can't wait for all the Christmas-y food. hehe. Not to mention the long weekend which awaits all of us (:

Anyway, I just wanted to share some Anya Hindmarch love today. I was doing some online window shopping earlier and came across some small but pretty and practical items. (Might be some super last minute gift ideas for some of you :p )

These are some of Anya Hindmarch's labelled goods.

For your iPod...
...
...

A stylish casing for your camera.

...
...

I don't know why I always buy bags which does not have enough compartments. I always have the problem of finding my keys, phones, lip balm, earphones, etc. That's cos I have to dump everything into the bag. Not fun when you're rushing to answer your phone or rush into the house. So this next item would be perfect for carrying all your essentials!

...
...

I've got my eyes on the MUSIC casing. Very tempted
The most practical one for me at the moment. Just 'cos I need a home for my itouch ;)
But really...I'm just looking for an excuse. hehe

Have a great weekend everyone!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Enjoy the holidays!

Much love.

Just Too Cute

Christmas is NEXT WEEK! Next Saturday to be precise!!! The festive atmosphere is at full swing now. I can hear my neighbour blasting Christmas Carols every night. I'm not complaining... (: haha. Done with Christmas shopping yet? LoL

Anyway, I came across these make-up items from Dior. They're so cute I have to share them on this blog. 
First up..


It's for your face and lips. So compact it'll fit in any bag! (: Look at it! A miniature Lady Dior bag!!! How cute.. Personally, these colours work for me too. Very lady-like (:


This is just a blusher. If I'm looking for a blusher now, I'll definitely buy this! :P 

I'm going gaga over these 2 items now. haha

Oh, I found these items on strawberrynet. They have a reasonably wide range of beauty products/ makeup/ fragrances. Many big brands are stock with them. The best thing is they usually have pretty good discounts. AND Free shipping (to anywhere in the world). Which makes it double yayy!

Hope you guys had a great weekend! (:

Get Up and Go, Go, Go!

I've been feeling a 'lil bit under the weather this past few days. Maybe it's due to my lack of physical activity. I noticed that all I've been doing for the past couple of weeks is sit in front of the computer, eat, sit in front of the computer, eat, sleep. Not exactly a very healthy lifestyle. And definitely not a lifestyle I want to keep. 

So I decided that today..Enough is enough! I should be exercising today!!! So off I went for a brisk walk. Just for half an hour. I reckon it's not long enough or vigorous enough to burn some fats along the way. But heck, it's a start! :D I actually feel better now. Better 'cos I don't feel so guilty being such a lazy arse. hehe. 

Now I'm here, in front of my laptop blogging with a cup of honey&lemon. Apparently honey&lemon soothes the soar throat. I'm still waiting. Patiently. Not feeling the slightest improvement yet. Grrrrr! 

Ok, here's a sponge cake with lemon butter cream and mixed berries I prepared a couple of days ago. Just to get in the mood for Christmas! :D It was from a recipe my cousin passed me. It's pretty yumms I can tell you. The picture doesn't do it justice. Blame the photographer! Eeks! That means, there's only me to be blamed! *shy* haha

See why I need some form of exercise now? LoL

On a very happy note: The other scored 4 HDs out of 4 subjects!!! I'm a proud girl (:

Hope your week has been going on oh-so-well people!

Save or Splurge?

That's what I always ask myself when I'm about to purchase something. 
Sometimes, making a decision takes forever. I've learned to ask myself this question at least 10 times before I walk to the counter (if in a shop) or click checkout (for online shopping). All in the hopes of spending wisely. 

Lately, I've been thinking of getting a Twilly. A narrow scarf which can be used as a hair accessory or a scarf around your neck. Hermes has been famous for its Twillys. I, for one, cannot resist it at the moment. 


Unfortunately, the price is a 'lil bit steep. :(

BUT I found a close substitute by Alainn via ThePopLook.

Silk Vs. Satin Silk. 

Something tells me I should follow my brains. haha. 

What should I do? Sigh. LoL

Ivanka Trump Girl Up Bracelet

Speaking of bracelets, I found this a couple of months back but did not share it on my blog. 

This bracelet is made by Ivanka Trump Fine Jewellery for the United Nations Foundation Girl Up campaign. Girl Up provides an opportunity for girls to raise awareness and funds to help other girls in developing countries. 

Ivanka Trump Fine Jewellery is actually a founding partner of this campaign. Thus, 100% of the proceeds of this bracelet goes to Girl Up. 

So, by purchasing this simple but pretty bracelet, you'll be killing 2 birds with 1 stone. You'll be donating to the Girl Up campaign AND expanding your jewellery collection. :P haha..I kid. 

Visit the Girl Up website to find out more about how you can help (:

Friendship Bracelet


I'm sure most of you have made and received this when you were young. (: 
I remember making and collecting friendship bracelets back when I was in Standard 5 (Year 5). Talk about childhood memories. haha. Sweet. (:

Anyway, I found out about the Friendship Bracelet Project through Gracie a couple of days ago. Immediately, I wanted to be part of this project. Basically, this project is about making friendship bracelets for kids in Uganda. These kids are not as fortunate as you and me. Most of them have perhaps not received any presents/ gifts. 

Thus, making these friendship bracelets for them would put a smile on their faces! :D At the same time, you'll also be spreading some love. So why not join in?

These simple bracelets are so easy to make. If I (a-not-very-creative-artsy-person), can make one, so can you! The strings needed to make these are inexpensive. Plus, it wouldn't take too much of your time. C'mon people..I know most of you are having a very long summer break. :P  
My supplies. Colourcolourcolour! yayy!

Spread some love y'all! 

xX

Finally!

It's finally Friday! woot! I'm so happy the weekend is here again. This means that I can sleep in, drink tea, read magazines and books, watch movies/ dramas and do anything and everything relaxing. Such bliss! (:

Anyway, I just wanted to share some pictures with you today. Mostly on random things.

My dinner today. 
Chicken Bayou Salad. 
The brother and I headed out to Tony Roma's for dinner today. Just 'cos we were too lazy to cook. No one wanted to lift a finger. :P I wanted to take a picture of the ribs he ordered. Before I could even get my camera out, he was already diggin' in -.-

O.P.I Royal Flush Blush

I just painted my nails with this favourite colour of mine. The light pink isn't too OTT (over the top). It's actually a very sweet and lady-like shade of pink (: 

Return To Tiffany Pendant

I've been having this Tiffany&Co pendant for around 10 months now. Ever since I got it, I've been wearing it everyday. Since my name is also Tiffany, some people think it's my name tag. haha. Due to sweat and water, this piece of silver jewellery has been tarnished. :S As you can see.. It's not shiny anymore :( Maybe it's time for me to send my necklace in for some polishing work. 

My 2011 Planner

I've been looking for a planner the past few weeks. It's actually pretty useful for uni. Since I'll be challenging myself with taking 2 Finance subjects next semester, I anticipate a crazy every-other-week-test schedule. Reckon a planner would be essential for me to mark down reminders to help me stay on top of things. This Kikki.k planner is so cute. Look at the pages inside! So colourful, fun and pretty. The size is also not too big. Perfect for throwing it into my handbag. (:

Anything planned for the weekend? 

Have a great one ahead! (:

Piggy Bank!

Say hello to the newest addition to my room!

...

...

...

...

...


My very own piggy bank. haha If you're wondering..No, I didn't get that for myself. My parents and brother thought that someone should buy me a piggy bank as a reminder to save. They just love making me sound pathetic! LoL

So the brother said "There you go.. Save up to buy whatever you want and stop making me buy them for you". Hah! You're so smart! But c'mon, that's part of the perks of being the baby of the family! :P

So I'm pretty pumped up about getting my piggy bank filled up. Now I just need some motivation to do it... What do you think I should save up for? :P I'm still thinking about it...

 I'll start with putting in a dollar (of coins) a day. (: Hopefully I'll stick to it! 

Seriously this piggy bank looks so funny. And mind you, it's porcelain and it's huge. 
Look, it says "My First Piggy Bank". hahaha


Umm.. Definitely not my first. Don't worry ;)

When I Put My Make Up On...

I rarely put make-up on. I always thought and still think that it's pretty unnecessary for uni. Haha. Laugh at me. I'm not a cosmetic freak. But yes, I still put on some face powder and lipgloss when I go to uni. I don't exactly turn up bare faced. LoL.

But since I can't turn up au naturale every morning now, I've to smack on some make-up. Which means, I take another 15-20 minutes extra to get ready. Not a good thing when I'm rushing actually. So, here's what I've been using for the past 2 days. 

1. Big Beautiful Eyes by Benefit.
Using the fish eye effect
It comes with a base shadow, couture shadow and liner shadow. The best thing is, this eye kit comes with a concealer. I need to hide those eye bags! *cries*

2. Waterproof Eyeliner (Benefit) and MagnaScopic Mascara (Estee Lauder)
Using pin hole effect
Hmm...I'm still pretty bad with the eyeliner business. My hands are pretty shaky and I hate the idea of poking a pencil so near my eyes! I try to avoid using the eyeliner as much as I can. I use the liner shadow as a replacement (that's cos I use a brush for the liner shadow). The mascara is pretty good. I didn't realize my eyelashes could be made visible. LoL

3. Dandelion face powder by Benefit
Pin hole effect
This is a pinkish powder which can be used as a blusher as well. The best thing is it smells really nice! 

4. Gloss Fluo by Chanel or Lip Butter by Palmer's
Using Pop Art
I use either one. The colour of the lipgloss looks pretty far out. But when applied, it doesn't have the bright-shocking-pink colour. Trust me. I've been using this for the whole of last semester and none of my friends complained. haha. If you don't like coloured lipgloss, Palmer's Lip Butter should be your choice. I love my lip butter just 'cos it's flavoured. Dark Chocolate and Peppermint. Yumm.. My favourite ice cream flavour! :P

I snapped these pictures using a new digital camera I found lying around the house. It's been here since June, but no one noticed its existence. haha. So I decided to own it now. I've been exploring its effects and such. It has the fish-eye effect! Hmmm... Looks like I don't need a lomo camera now. :P

I want to wear this. 

What goes with it? Hmmm...

On a totally different note, I've found some Aussie bloggers who are into snail-mailing. Maybe I should start letter-writing soon! 

Have a great week ahead!

First Day and Time for Everything

I survived the day! Don't worry, I didn't do much today. Sat down and read up work manuals. Haha. But somehow, it was draining. 

I came home hungry and sleepy. Kicked off my heels and ran to the kitchen. Guess what I found? I bowl of mango-fresh prawns- lettuce salad! Made by the brother. Yummmm... Reminds me of Victoria Station! They call it prawn cocktail there if I'm not mistaken. So I just grabbed a fork and started diggin' in. More than halfway in, the brother came in and said "Ooiii.. Don't finish everything!" haha. Gotta love the brother sometimes. :P

Now I'm craving for some macarons! 
Can you get me a box of these? Now?


Went for some macarons last weekend with Rachel. It was fun fun fun. Sadly, no pictures :( We didn't bring our cameras. Yes, the phone! But we were too busy chitter-chattering. I want macarons! I'm sleepy...

I should sleep soon. Goodnite!

When It's the Holiday Season

... Everyone goes on a shopping frenzy! Yes EVERYONE! Girls are on a shopping high, and most guys (who don't usually shop) start shopping too. I mean... Who can blame this sort of behaviour? Every shop you walk into, there's a "SPECIAL", "SALE", "PROMOTION" tag. You get into the "Should I buy this" mode. You find yourself giving in to the temptations. Next thing you know, you're at the till paying for your item with a bigass smile on your face. :D haha. Ohhh, the sort of high you get from shopping. Am I right, girls?

OK, so here's something for you Jennifer Behr fans out there. Since, Christmas is around the corner, Jennifer Behr is having a discount! 30% off all items, ladies! Yes, you read that right! The discount code is SPARKLE. Just type that at checkout, and you'll receive that 30% off!





For those of you who do not know, Jennifer Behr headbands were made famous by the one and only Blair Waldorf. Most of the headbands spotted on Queen B in Gossip Girl is by Jennifer Behr. 

Check out the website and see if anything tickles your fancy! ;)

Kara Ross

I've been on a roll for jewellery this past month. Don't worry, I'm sure this jewellery binge will pass. haha

I came across some of these pieces I really like. I think I'm into cuffs and statement necklaces for now. So bear with me...

All these are from Kara Ross

First up on my LIKE list.

Cityscape Cuff

Wide Hexagon Cuff

Narrow Hexagon Cuff

White Kabibi Shell Necklace

Roman Numeral Link Necklace
I REALLY like the Cityscape Cuff... BUT (there's always a but..) I don't think it'll be suitable for work, aye? People will think I'm dressing up for a casual-do or party. The Wide Hexagon Cuff looks more 'decent' for formal meetings don't cha think? haha

But, I think the White Shell Necklace will go really well with a nice work blouse ;) 

Ok, that's my jewellery dose for the day!

Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
(Although I think I'm a day late...It's supposed to be Thursday right?? hehe)

Well, can't blame me. Thanksgiving isn't a big holiday/ celebration in Kuala Lumpur or in Sydney. So, I don't really keep track of it. BUT, I actually do believe that Thanksgiving shouldn't be a single day in a year. Everyday should be Thanksgiving. I mean... Being able to wake up, to carry out your normal routine is a blessing isn't it? We should already be thankful for being alive, well and kickin'!

People in the US usually have Thanksgiving dinner with their family. With roast turkey and loadsa other food. That's why some call it the Turkey Day. LoL. 


Members of the family would share at least one thing they're grateful for. As for me, I'm thankful for so many things! (That's great isn't it?) But to list it all down would definitely take AGESSS! So, here are my top 5:

1. I'm thankful for the person who loves me (: 
2. I'm thankful for a GREAT family and awesome friends who stick by me.
3. I'm thankful that I enrolled into university this year and managed to complete my first year studies. Tertiary education has become a necessity. But bare in mind, your parents don't owe you. They might have to make some sacrifices to put you through university. 
4. I'm thankful that I'm never lacking.
5. I'm thankful that I get to strike items off my wishlist this year. hehe. Make your own WishList! From my experience, they work! haha

Since it's still Thursday (in the US)...
Happy Thanksgiving!

Hope you have many many many things to be thankful for! (:

Five Things

Five Things that keep me occupied:

1. A good book
Currently reading: Shopaholic Abroad. 
I'm reading it AGAIN. Why? 'Cos that's the only book which makes sense to me in the house. The brother has other books which are way too "deep" for me (I think) or I'm just NOT interested. haha. I want my Msian home library. Take. Me. Home. :(((((

2. Magazines/ Blogs
Magazines: Frankie and InStyle. Why? 'Cos I'm getting ideas to decorate my room. They call it drawing visual inspiration. Seriously... I'm not trying to sound shallow here.  
Blogs: Cupcakes and Cashmere. Why? I find many cool baking recipes from this blog. And Emily (writer) is just so creative when it comes to refurnishing her apartment!

3. FastPass TV
Currently watching: Grey's Anatomy, Gossip Girl, Modern Family, Glee. Just because there's nothing else to watch, I'm starting to follow 90210. Big Bang Theory will join the list too. (I know I know... Streaming is illegal. But then, the TV is not as up-to-date!)

4. Cupcakes


What? Vanilla cupcakes with pink icing. yummm.. My favourite. And they look pretty too. Some ask "Why don't you just buy them?" Umm...My answer would be 'cause you don't get the satisfaction of enjoying your own baking. Plus, you don't get other people's compliments. hehe

5. Blackberry
My access to BBM, Whatsapp, Twitter, etc.

Something for Autumn

Something for Autumn
Something for Autumn by tiffyyap featuring long sleeve sweaters
Gold would make the outfit pop!

First Day

First Day
First Day by tiffyyap featuring suede pumps

Yes, the above would be something I would wear for the first day at work. Actually I've been thinking hard on what I can put together for My first day. I certainly don't want to go into the office in black&white. I know I know. Black&White is proper and smart. Some people say it's sexy too (I quote Shien). But isn't a black skirt/ pants and a white blouse/ shirt a lil boring you think?

Don't get me wrong. I don't wanna be rocking up on the first day in a shocking pink dress either. No one will take me seriously right? haha. But I think this ensemble above looks pretty good. The details of the embellished top certainly makes the cut. The tailored blazer on the other hand, brings about structure to the outfit and this projects the kind of seriousness we need to display at work.

If only I had these items in my closet. haha

Just for a relaxed day out.

I haven't logged into Polyvore for a couple of months now. So while waiting for my video to load, I thought of creating another set. Since the weather today's pretty gloomy, I thought of creating a look which brings forth the relaxed vibe.

This whole set features all my favourite pieces. From the J Brand jeans to the CCSkye leather wrap. I also love how the Philip Lim jersey looks so comfortable and airy. With the CCSkye statement necklace, that plain, simple tee is glammed up instantly.

Wouldn't mind this wardrobe at all, with the earthly tone. haha

Have a great day guys!
Time for baking some cupcakes you think? ;)

Holidays and such

Today's the 3rd day of post-exam bliss. Yes, it feels good that exams/ assignments/ uni work is off my shoulders. As a student with these things bugging you 24/ 7, you feel like you're carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders. All the uni students out there will definitely agree with me, no?

So, on Tuesday (post-exam day 1), I went out to Bondi with a couple of friends for brunch. Nothing beats poached eggs with salmon, a glass of cold, freshly squeezed orange juice, good company, Bondi beach and awesome weather. We were digging it in at Bondi Trattoria

Summer holidays are here. Most are going home for hols, some would be working/ interning, while others are just done with university life and getting ready for the real world. 

2010 uni has been pretty good to me. Many ups and downs, but at the same time, many friendships were built, and many were also made stronger. Friendships back home are also as strong as ever, which is a pretty awesome thing! 

A conversation with a friend actually got me thinking about what I actually blog about. I think from now on, my blog would be a happy place. I've come to realize that I shouldn't blog about anything too personal here (I don't usually do that anyway). A line should be drawn I supposed. 

This blog will feature things colourful, fancy and pretty. Afterall, its called Of Colours and Fancy Things!

Wait for more updates. My blog shouldn't be dead. (:

Have a nice days you guys!

Final Dash to the Finish Line!

My final paper is in approximately 3.5 hours! Actually a tad bit less than that. 
The weather looks pretty gloomy. :S Please don't rain! (:

I hope I finish the finals with a bang!

Dear Quantitative Analysis, please be kind and nice.  
I promise to love you more (:

So for now... Wish me luck!

When We LOVE

I wish everything was ok, normal, perfect, happy. 
Isn't that what everyone wants in life? 

But reality is, life is not a bed of roses. 
Yes, I've heard that so many times already!

I was just talking to a friend yesterday, and I complained "I'm just 19. Why do I have so many problems?? I never knew what SAD felt like. Until now." 

I know..I always use this word "Oh...I'm so sad now I'm stuck at home.." or "It's so friggin sad that my exams end the latest amongst all my other friends" or "I'm so sad my Dad didn't allow me to get that" or...Ok, you get my point.

But I've tasted the true meaning of SAD now. This emotion. This feeling. 

It definitely hurts. 

My friend said this in response... 
"Cos you chose to love. When you love, there'll always be problems"


So true.

But despite all that, I still choose to love

I don't know if I'm making any sense to you. But heck, my blog is my place to vent out my feelings (:

Hot Saturday!

It's been so HOT the past 2 days. I thought it's spring. Feels like summer already helloooo.. But I must say, I definitely prefer the hot weather as compared to cold winter days. *shivers*

I can't really get my head around studying too 'cos it's just too hot. It's unbearable sometimes..And more often than not, the 'hot-ness' makes me feel sleepy. haha

So in between studying/ trying to concentrate, I was goofing around with my webcam. I mean, better be making funny faces, than visiting my online shopping websites right? :D haha. I've found a cure for my weakness!


Sorry for the crazy- hair look. This is basically the exam-mode-studying look.

Did I mention, I love Peter Alexander? I can now walk outta the house in my PJs. haha

Time to stock up on PJs you think? :P

Yay or Nay?

I found this on RevolveClothing..

Rachel Leigh Greta Bracelet in Gold / Rose Gold.


Yay or Nay?

I should ask the mother. I can tell her we can share... hehe

But I can guess the answer already.
"Not my style la"

Sigh... As I grow older (into a young lady), our style differs aye mommy? haha

TGIF

Thank God it's Friday!
It was so good to get outta the house after so many days! I kid you not, spending 4 days at home, and not stepping out feels B.A.D. 

It somehow feels so nice to be out again. And this time, I took some effort to put on something nice. Not dress up. But not t-shirt and jeans kindda look. haha. And I also got the chance to put on some 4 inchers. :P Being tall has a very nice feeling. I was towering above so many other people. hehe 
Not a very wise thing to do though when you're out shopping actually. haha

Oops..sorry no pics of my outfit for the day.

But I can show you what I had for dessert. :D Oh shucks! Can't show you guys the pic!!! :((((
I can't open it! Why not????? Grrrrrr...Anyway, here's the description. haha

Pancakes with maple syrup, vanilla ice cream, berries and cream!
I have no idea why they gave me cream... But no complains. This thing tastes too awesome especially with those 2 scoops of ice cream! Considering the weather here these past 2 days. 

Hmm... Today has been good! (:
Hope yours was as good..or even Better than mine!

Love, love, love

Untitled

4 days away from my final paper. Most of my friends are done or almost done for the year. By 'almost' I mean they're done tomorrow. 

Sigh. I needa keep my focus! 4 more days Tiffany, you can do it!
I've been feelin' superrrr restless. I know I've to keep doing (QA) work to make sure I remember all that I need to know for the exam.

Plus, I think I'm feeling very restless 'cos I've been spending ALL my time at home since Sunday. WOW!

Maybe I should go out for a lunch break tomorrow. Where can I go? Hmmm...

But for now, I've to keep my discipline. Sleep early. Wake up early. And perhaps, load up on those vitamin Cs. I feel like flu is creeping in slowly. :S

Time for bed now. (:

Goodnight!

xX

So Sweet...

I noticed that I've been updated my blog for the past few days on a daily basis. woahhhh... is the blogging mojo back???

Hmm... Maybe stress makes me wanna pen down my thoughts more often and I've got loads of random things to talk about.haha As some of you know, I kindda blog surf a lot. Not a-lot as in a-lot. But when I'm free, I blog surf or when someone's blog has a fancy name, it'll defo make me wanna check it out. haha

So I came across these few pics. Thought I would share them. 



Pictures of kids in love.
Awwwwww right? (:
How cute!

On a totally random note, it was so hot today! My room feels like an oven!!! Not. Fun. 
I think it was 31C, but helloooooo 31C back home doesn't feel anything like this shitty weather! >(

I need the aircon fixed. Period.

Ok, ciao!

Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies

That was what I baked this afternoon. :D

Today has been pretty productive. I did so many things today, but not all things study related. haha. I have no idea why I was having an insomnia last night. Believe it or not, I was still awake at 4 am. :O I went to bed at 12-ish 1 and I was just tossing and turning, thinking about things for 3 hours! I thought most about the 3 papers that I just did. :S 

Yes, I'm afraid I kid you not. I have no idea why...
I must say... I did put much more effort into this semester. My goals were higher and I actually made sure I did all I could to achieve them during the semester, i.e work super hard for tutorial tests (which happens to be every 2 weeks throughout the semester-.-), made sure I did all the tutorial work and I understood what I did, and of course I was particular in making sure my assignments were kickass material before submitting them. 

But somehow, I feel rather sick thinking about my final grades :S
Everyone tells me that if I've done my part, that's all that I can do. I've to leave the rest to God. Hmm... Guess I need more Faith. (: I've to lean on Him.

I'm getting sidetracked here.. haha

Anywayyyy, I slept at 4-ish woke up at 10 am. Not. Enough. Sleep

Surprisingly, I didn't feel half dead. I made a target to go through 3 chapters of QA work. And boy, after I finished those 3 chapters, I was super restless. No more work could be done. 

So after lunch, I decided to bake these...
Fresh outta the oven

Chewy cookies. I like. 

I actually tried a new recipe. Haven't done this before. And the measurements were different. Instead of telling me how many cups of flour I needed, it was 300 grams of flour. And I had to do the conversions -.-

I needed something like 55 grams of cocoa, 3 grams of salt (who measures 3g???), 2 grams of baking soda (2 g??? whaaat????). So I decided to act smart. I used my agak-agak (estimation) skills. haha

Them cookies didn't turn out so bad actually. But they looked rather dull and sad.


Perhaps some colourful royal icing would brighten them up a 'lil. Possibly more life would be seen with some dashing colours!

Oh well, pretty cookies after exams! (:

Tomorrow has to be a productive studying day. And I'm gonna make sure I sleep early tonight. 

Hope your day has been good, dolls! (:
