Caramel Apples


( Pictures taken from Here )

Making caramel apples ( or chocolate covered) is very simple and easy. All you need are some granny smith apples which you can get at any groceries store, wooden candy sticks, cellophane bags,ribbons ( if you wish) and the toppings of your desire. It would be a nice gift to put about 6 or seven apples inside a basket and wrap it with cellophane paper and that makes a beautiful and thoughtful present.

Chocolate covered marshmallows


On a stick

Or in a box

This is one of my favorite Holiday gifts to give, you can never go wrong with chocolate ( unless they don't like chocolate like me) you can easily make these lovely treats. Last year I decided to make some myself to give to my family. The things that you will need are a bag of large marshmallows either a stick or if you'd like to make it in a box like I posted above and chocolate and your desired toppings. You can purchase the box and the sticks at any craft store like Micheal's. You also don't have to put chocolate as a topping it could be what you desire such as caramel or dulce de leche (Yummy) . You can also decorate the box.

Chocolate Spoons


Chocolate spoons are such a simple and sweet gift to give. All you need is plastic spoons and either dark chocolate and white chocolate. Heat the chocolate on the stove or microwave and when ready carefully dip the spoons, remove and put on a cookie sheet to cool down. You can also have the option to make the spoons look really nice and cute by adding a cup and wrapping it in cellophane.

1. GNO - Girls Night Out this song just starts of with a party scene and hype which just makes you want to dance as soon as you hear the beak of the song. Like the song states it is all about dancing and having a good time with your girls and forget about the boys because it's all about a girls night out. This was a great opening track to the album which honestly made me even much more eager to hear the rest of the album. This was composed and arranged very well, the vocals are great from the beginning to end no complains.
7 out of 10


2. Be My Baby - This was their comeback song it's a very cute song and sounds festive in my opinion which is a plus due to the fact that it was released by the holiday season. This song is a song many girls can relate to because it's about loving someone that you have fallen in love with and your wishing and praying that they notice you and ask you to be your girlfriend. The chorus is beautifully sang by Ye Eun and Sun Ye , you can really feel the emotion in their voice as they sing please be my baby. Sohee sounds fantastic her singing has gotten so much better. Hyerim sound great I like her voice it's very distinct. Yoobin's rap at first was a bit out of place with the song the fist time I heard it but now I got used to it and really like it.
7 out of 10


3. Girls Girls - Very inspiring song and meaningful and it probably touched many hearts in the world. This song is a song that everyone should listen to. It has such a beautiful message of you can do anything if you wish to and you have courage within yourself. This song will help so many girls feel confident and it's a very great thing to spread around. I would say this is a ballad with a more jazz feel to it. One of my favorite parts is the rap but just overall the lyrics to this song are very beautiful.
9 out of 10


4. Me,in - This is one of my favorite songs, this song comes to life with it's amazing guitar riffs yet modern twist. From beginning to end this is a masterpiece done so well. The vocals are wonderful, it starts with Sunye luring us in with her wonderful high note which just get's you in the rocking mood then towards the bridge is Yoobin's rap which starts with a modern drum and bass then slowly turns back to rock. I believe they did the original song justice for those that don't know this song is a cover of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U6wp9UthaZo
8.5 out of 10


5. Sweet Dreams - Written by Yoobin this one sweet dream. Dreaming of a loved one to always be by your side is what this song describes. It's such a cute and sweet song that describes how you feel when you are in love. I really enjoyed the vocals they are singing very softly and feels harmonic. 7 out of 10


6. Stop! - This is also one of my favorite songs it has a wonderful beat and melody that easily made me sing the chorus and memorize it. They showcase their vocals very well in this song and even though it's a song about not wanting someone to love you it's a song you can dance to. 7.5 out of 10



7. Dear. Boy - With soft whispers this song opens up about being in a relationship that is a roller coaster filled with emotions. Like stated before this song also shows everyone's wonderful voices but truly shows how talented Sohee is and how her voice has improved. Sohee sings the chorus beautifully and filled with emotions (they all do) that you can truly feel that it was a sad love story. 7.5 out of 10


8. 두고두고 (Long Time) - Only sung by Ye Eun and Sun Ye this song is pure bliss. The vocals are beautifully showed, it first opens up by Ye Eun vocalizing and then she starts singing then when Sun Ye sings it just completes this blissful song. I think Ye Eun and Sun Ye did a very outstanding job in this song, the vocals are just fantastic that goes so well with the harmonies. Over all this song was very well done and mixed. 8 out of 10


9. SuperB - Right of when this song starts off and I hear the beat I know its time to throw on a fun girly dress and dance the night of away. After so many wonderful R&B songs in this album it was time for a party song and this is just it. Yoobin and Sohee did a great job in this song vocally and with her rap part too. The beat of the song is wonderful and very well produced and I would love to hear an instrumental version of this song because it would be a great dance/electronica song to dance to. 7.5 out of 10



10. Act Cool ( feat San.E) - At first I found this song to be quite awkward but as I played it and sang along to it I really liked it. I think she did a fantastic job and the song sends a good message out to people who disliked her when she joined the Wonder Girls. San E's add lib's are nice they add style to hyerim's rap. I really like the bass and rhythm it was produced well. 8 out 10


11. Be My Baby (Ra.D Mix) - Really enjoyed this mix I think this is more relaxing and it's great for easy listening.  7.5 out of 10


12. Nu Shoes - Fantastic! what a great way to end the album. This song is fun with a great rhythm and beat, and mostly a song many girls can relate too ( unfortunately we all can't afford Manolos ) how one feels when we get new shoes and want to show it to the world. I was surprised that this whole song was in English a very excited as well. Everyone of them sang beautifully and their English pronunciation was marvelous. 9 out of 10

Over all I really enjoyed this album I would of wanted to give all songs 10 out 10 but I couldn't and wouldn't because that's not how you review an album. All the songs were extraordinary and were mixed and sang in an excellent manner. The only thing I didn't like was the fact that they didn't release instrumentals of the songs, that would of been icing on the cake and asking for to much. Over all I was really happy with the outcome and this is an album I play every other day when I'm in need of some dancing,practicing my vocals or even to do chores around the house. I give the whole album a 9.5 put of 10 .

Hello everyone how are you all? , like I mentioned in my last blog post I am starting my Holiday 2011 Fashion Segment. Every week I will post an outfit and look to help out people who have no clue or are undecided like myself on what will you wear on this upcoming holiday. In this upcoming segment it'a very simple with no accessories but classic.

Classic Elegance


This blouse is so beautifully detailed and the ruffles are just the right amount.


When wearing a sheer garment remember to always wear a tank top on the bottom.


You can always pair a simple outfit with some classic pumps.


A closer look at the detailing of this blouse.


Closer look of the ruffles. (Please excuse my horrid manicure, this won't happen again)


This high waist-ed skirt is simple but can be paired up with a blouse like I did and can look very tasteful and classic.

This look can be achieved very easily. You don't have to buy an expensive skirt or blouse, you can use what you have in your house and play around with your wardrobe. In this look I choose simplicity, since I am wearing a ruffled detailed blouse I can't accessorize by using a necklace or long earrings.


This is what you don't want, I believe this model was over accessorized. You don't want to be swallowed by so many things at once.


If you would like too, you could add a beautiful pair of studs.
( aren't these gorgeous?)

If you are feeling festive you can even add snowflake studs.

This concludes my first Holiday segment week and I can't wait till next week to add more. I promise I will have better outfits and pictures, Thank you all for reading have a wonderful weekend and remember to be safe.
