Hello 2013

( This is a more personal post for myself as a keepsake ☺ )

One year has passed and now its time to embrace a new one. 
2012 was a roller-coaster ride for me, but despite all its ups and downs, I gained so much from it and am truly thankful.

Moments I'd never forget;


Meeting the love of my life ♥




Learning to act..


Seeing myself in print hehe


Seeing my favourite band (Metric) live!



Understanding the value of family and friends ;

And finally,


starting my own business ✌

Looking back, there really was a reason for everything. I made a lot of bad choices last year, and I realized how important it is to learn to let go. 
At the end of the day, what matters most is that you and your loved ones 
are healthy and happy. I'm glad to be where I am today and I hope 
whoever is reading this, is too.
Happy new year and I wish you all the love in the world <3

Bobbi Brown Lips


Received this for christmas and am sharing this because I'm absolutely hooked. Never one to use lip gloss because I always felt it made my lips look thicker & fatter, ieeww. This one not only did not make my lips look fat, it added a light glossy shimmer and lasted a lot longer than I expected it to!


It is a tad sticky which would probably require some getting used to. I guess that's why it's more long-lasting.

Sequins for Christmas

Have a very merry Christmas ♥

This year I decided to go with sequins again for Christmas. Love how the sequins on this dress pans out like some sort of a chest-plate necklace!



Spent the night at woobar with people I love dearly, two of whom were born on Christmas eve! The atmosphere was lovely and quiet, which was perfect for us.


I especially loved these lights, thought they looked like plants from a fantasy world. 

 

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas, happy holidays!

Trip down memory lane

Christmas is round the corner, so I took a trip down memory lane & dug out some pictures of past Christmas outfits!


These are from last year, I was pretty much into the skirts + stockings combo.
In the left picture, I was wearing a wooly black mini with glitter I found in Korea! Sadly, it never saw the light of day after that night.


I still have that sequined mini from Miss Selfridge which feels totally festive to me! Glitter and sequins always reminds me of Christmas somehow. And on the right, I was donning my favourite pair of boots, which are unfortunately spoilt now. After looking through these pictures, I realize I kinda miss my long hair. Have you picked out your Christmas outfit for this year?

Absence of Colour


This dress has always been a personal favourite of mine from the store.
Being a huge fan of monochrome, I'm always on the lookout for more varied designs that toy with the absence of colour. 

Here are some monochromatic inspirations ♥


And taking cue from the brilliant Chanel,


I think my obsession for monochrome would probably be a lifelong one ☺

Riverside


Dug out an old H&M toga top I found in HK for today.
I rarely wear togas, and this was one of those impulsive buys which luckily is not one I regret. Spent a pleasant evening down at robertson quay catching up with my dear friend. We did an unorthodox gift exchange and I'm very happy with all my Disney themed gifts. Thank you ♥


Goodnight

Fashionable Sounding



These blew me away, literally. 
Love the colour, the texture and how they managed to make sound wearable.
Brilliant.

Brightly Lit Town




Did a little last minute Christmas shopping in my new mesh skirt (Julien) last night, and boy was town crowded! I'm not a big fan of the red & gold theme this year, but I do like the Christmas story figurines ♥
The stores seem to have extended they're shopping hours so we managed to cover more ground than we originally could have.
If you're looking for cards, Marks & Spencer stores are selling these really cute ones for only $10! 
20 cards, 4 designs. 


 The festive season is here and I'm loving every moment of it!
Here's us :)








Well Hello

Hello there,
It's difficult having to think of a way to begin this, I haven't kept a blog for a very long time. I'm hoping that this space would not only be a platform for me to record my findings, but also that it would somehow be of some use for you.
Some form of inspiration. 

With Love
