2014. A year to behold. I remember welcoming it in a bar last year - the last "happening" one I told myself. One drink, some bites and a couple of hours in a jam later, I was finally home and that was how I began the year. The last CNY as a singleton didn't have too huge an impact, except for the fact...
I have been travelling in December for family vacations the last couple of years soaking up the atmosphere and getting frozen alive. This year, we all stayed home for this festive season - apart from the erratic rains that makes my home town feel like christmas, we have Luminarie light sculptures specially handcrafted and flown in from Italy at Gardens by the...
I've been to a number of pop ups this festive season and I managed to nab somethings from local artists and producers. Glad I found these affordable cards by Actspressions for the festive season and even the upcoming valentine's day! :) ...
I swear this is the result of hanging out too much with the Hubba. The first thing that actually caught my attention wasn't the Hermes Kelly Clutch that I would've died for but the chest of Timothy Oulton drawers. Creeps is recognizing furniture by brand. On a separate note, don't you think the drawers are sooooo gorgeous? :x ...
The thought of attending an overseas wedding always get me so excited, maybe an extra reason to travel. Depending how it works out, sometimes airfare and accomodation is covered, sometimes it is not. In our case, it was not so we picked our flights and accomodation on our own. Here's my two cents on attending a wedding in Hongkong! Pick a hotel near...
That's not our wedding cake, unfortunately. Neither did we bother with the take a slice off a fruit cake on every anniversary till the end of time. I used to be one to count monthesaries in a relationship, until of course it got laborious to some extent. It isn't every other month either that I remember how many months earlier I said...
I wish I had space for a real christmas tree filled with baubles collected all around the world. I kid you not when I saw the same tree I had in my head with as many as hundreds of ornaments hanging on it. My heart skipped a beat. I grew up with an artificial christmas tree taller than me with fairy lights...
I've a recent obsession with pop ups but weekends are usually so busy being a domestic helper that I have to miss majority of them. FINALLY managed to pay Crateful a visit, worth an afternoon though with the nooks and crannies in the tiny shop...if I can I could have stayed there all day long just going through the products they have. ...
My annual pilgrammage to the land of dimsum started off bright and early. I love taking planes at daybreak to reach my destination before it wakes up - at least I get a full day ahead of me...better still if I gain a day! I usually try to stay for at least 3 days, and time is never enough. Here's my really short...
With all the weddings nailed for November, there was just one I was looking forward to all year long. The dear sister's and I was taking on all the roles I had thrown at her previously. First up, bridesmaid. Not the comfyest of all dresses but at least we all looked pictureperfect. 615am I was plucked awake from slumberland and started the morning...
I am not sure when I stopped shopping in physical stores but whilst I did, I mostly shopped at U2 (once a brand under G2000), Mango and Sports Girl (Yet another now defunt Australian brand). The Mango sales were THE sales then in my schooling days and if anything, their sales probably honed my ability to shop under duress. The preview sale days...
I struggled internally before deciding to come out of the woods on this - I am an endometriosis warrior and I am not alone in this. This entry is completely my own opinions and experience, certainly beats a non-endometriosis patient saying how one should seek treatment if you have mentrual pain yada, read it straight off the keyboard of one. Some textbook symptoms...
"After women, flowers are the most lovely thing God has given the world" - Christian Dior. Well spoken indeed, by yet another favourite designer. My latest infatuation with wild flowers has brought the Hubba on a journey too, and here's his best attempt at gifting a bouquet of his idea of wild flowers. I say, he did pretty well. :)...
2 pairs for $10. Hello Kitty. Sold. Does not help that this mania is growing at an exponential rate! So much for being a closet kitty fan. Hur hur. :x ...
It was a random IG browsing and Gen.k caught my eye. Homegrown designer who dabbles with modernizing jade in very wearable pieces. I stalked her retail page but always ended up liking the sold out pieces from previous collections. So then, I decided to customise my own. That way, I needn't keep vigil or fight finger nail and mouse with the rest. (My...
Christmas is my favouritest season of the year not just because it is a season of gifting and eating but everyone just seems to be in a light hearted mood.. And my santa decided to be extra nice this year after the major bitch fit I threw over my missing sunnies in Istanbul earlier this year. Chloe sunnies in tortoise shell brown! Judith...
