I’ve moved! Check me out, at cclarebear.com See ya later… gater. Filed under: sydney
I have to say, it’s not often that I get a chance to see pictures of myself like this all in one go, but since it’s my birthday, I thought it might be fun to gather some pictures together...
Posting about visiting Sichuan was always going to be difficult – Posting day by day especially would have been awkward and dare I say impossible, so I’m posting about the two weeks we sp...
I haven’t posted face of the day pictures in a while, so when I had a hens night to go to on Saturday, I thought it would be a good time to get dolled up and post some pictures. It’s prob...
Dark polish on acrylic nails is something that’s hard to get right – done wrong, and it can look particularly artificial. Done right though and it’s perfect for a night out. At leas...
So being half Indonesian and living in Sydney, and desperately missing food from home, I am constantly on a search for new and good Indonesian restaurants in Sydney. There are some I won’t blog...
I’d be the first to admit that maintaining friendships isn’t something I’m particularly good at – I find that people tend to come and go, and I’m comfortable with the li...
Shopping, as I’m sure you know by now, is one of the great joys of my life. I’m skipping ahead a few weeks, but I had these pictures of a few things I bought in Beijing and am really exci...
October just about flew by for me – new job, leaving the old job, birthdays, seeing people… I had a lot on. I found I was going out a lot, and often with very little notice, so my makeup ...
I’m writing this post from what is, for now, a clean house. This is a rare thing for me. My shoebox apartment is for the most part, a giant mess unless someone important is coming round. On thi...
So a quite famous makeup tutorial youtuber has recently posted a video on her site firstly thanking her fans, and then going on about how everyone should donate money to buy mosquito nets to help end...
It was suggested to me recently on facebook that I should do a makeup tutorials. I attempted it, and it failed. So in the absence of that, I’ve picked out a few of my recent favourite makeup tu...
If these pictures seem familiar, it may be because they are. Visiting this Cantonese fancy-pants restaurant on Zhongshan was something we did twice. Once in this post, and once again now. I’ve ...
I lost my Illamasqua virginity on Saturday, courtesy of a lovely makeup artist named Jerry at the Illamasqua counter at Myer in Pitt St. The British brand who are new to Australia were doing Hallowee...
I have been a fan of Audrey Kawasaki for quite some time. It was around the time that I discovered Stella im Hultberg, and I fell in love with them both, and equally. Audrey makes the most beautiful ...
By the time this goes up, I will have well and truly started my new job. Which means of course, that I will have left my old job, that I was in for over five years. I had mixed emotions obviously. I ...
My V turned 28 on Monday, and to celebrate we went out to dinner. Like proper adults and everything. Bistro Moncur was one of those places whose name had been bandied about for a few weeks before the...
It’s V’s birthday today, so appropriately, this is another China post One of the things about the first week in Zhongshan that I really loved, was breakfast. In Sydney, breakfast is usual...
This is a follow up post from the OCC Lip Tars FOTD I did recently, although it was inspired by a video I saw by dusty hunter on youtube, around mixing pigments into lip products. I played with the L...
& Face of the Day Post. Hey, here’s a handy tip: If you ever have a bangs/fringe disaster that involves getting a cheap cut which consequently involves having your boyfriend hack at your ha...
I figured it was time to show you my living arrangements in China, so what follows is some fun pictures of the house we stayed in, some food we ate, and some wanderings around. This is just me, writi...
I have a theory: wearing glasses doesn’t change the way you should do your makeup. A lot of makeup bloggers get asked to do glasses-specific makeup, which I personally think is a bit of a crock...
Does anyone else watch Top Chef USA? I loved Jennifer – so ballsy. I was recently reminded of something she said, which fits in quite perfectly with today’s post about grocery shopping in...
Saturday night was… Fun. As a present to my mum, I’d bought her a ticket to Opera Australia‘s production of The Marriage of Figaro. The whole family wound up going – Mum, her ...
I love finding great cafes by accident. Last Saturday morning, we had plans to go somewhere for brunch, but even though we were driving around, we couldn’t decide on where to go. We then harnes...
Dinner, as I’m sure I am about to say over and over again, was amazing. It was maybe and very easily could be one of the greatest meal experiences of my life. As you can see, it started with a ...
After brunch last weekend, we went with A & her flatmate and did the Spit to Manly Walk. It’s about 10 kilometers, and snakes its way around through harbour areas, Aboriginal sites, fancy h...
Last weekend, we drove over the Sydney Harbour Bridge and trekked northwards for brunch and a day out. We eventually ended up in Balmoral, after scouring iPhone apps, maps and momentarily relying on ...
This is how the Cantonese do Yum Cha. One of the fascinations of China for me was how different it was to what I’ve experienced of Chinese culture in the west, and even in other parts of Asia. ...
The first brunch back from China was always going to be a big one. As you might see when I post more photos, the food we ate was for the most part, f*king amazing. Brunch on Sunday then, could not di...
