Safari Girl

I have always, always, like really always wanted to wear a floppy hat out because I know it'll look pretty good in photos but wearing a huge hat in Singapore just seems a little too exaggerated. That's exactly why I packed all my floppy hats for Bali cause you know, when you're a tourist, you can pretty much wear whatever you want and no one will judge you.

Went for a safari girl kind of look with brown and sand tones. This is actually one of my favourite floppy hats and it's from Stradivarius (borrowed from Heyse). Would have bought one myself but this colour is currently sold out which kind of sucks but what are friends for if you can't borrow their stuff right hahaha. Going to pack this little hat to HK as well and here's an advance thank you to Heyse haha!

Haji Lane Explorin'

In all my new buys from my shopping date last Thurs! Don't you love the feeling of being able to cut off tags and wearing new clothes (:

Decided to wear smth more casual and 'lazy' as some might call it for a change! I'm usually dressed in a skirt or a dress but somehow a pair of shorts just feels right for Haji Lane exploring. I got this pair at a sale at $20 off it's original price! How can you say no to it right? Hahaha!

Paired it with a knit cause I was secretly hoping that it'd rain that day. (which is did btw hehe) Initially, I bought this knit to bring to HK at the end of the year but since it's thin, it's appropriate for Singapore too! It's that time of the year where I start sourcing for knits to keep myself warm and comfy as if there's winter in Singapore haha! I'm quite sure I'm not the only one who does this.

And a comfy pair of sandals and brown bag to complement the casual look!

 

Just to share with you guys cause #goodthingsmustshare. I can't rmb which shop it is as Haji Lane but there's one that doubles up as out all time favourite mama shop! They sell all our childhood snacks such as the one you see above! Jo and I were so happy when we found this gem! Do check it out if you're there cause it's really so rare to find such snacks nowadays!

Midi Frenzy!

Can you tell I've been on a midi craze lately? I've nvr thought of myself wearing midis cause there's this number 1 rule for petite girls and that's to nvr wear midis cause they make you look shorter. But after trying it out, I've realised that it really depends on the length. Petite girls can look equally nice in a midi and rock it if it's the perfect length!

Recently, blogshops have been launching midis at a slightly shorter length, around 23-24" and that's really awesome cause it's the perfect length for a midi for my height! (: In fact, eyeing on the TCL one launching tmr hehe. Shopping ban fail.

When putting tgt this outfit, I wanted to dress up and look a little more mature. I guess it's cause the midi is in forest green which is a little more work ish. Paired it with a basic blouse (which Zara is having a sale for it now btw) and my trusty espadrilles and I was good to go!

Preppy

Story behind this top. So I was out at Orchard last weekend and I went to Stradivarius to check out their new collection! Tried on this top and fell in love with it instantly. I actually think it has got to do with the fact that I have bangs as weird as that sounds. It just looks so much more adorable haha! But I didn't get it then cause I just went on a crazy shopping spree the day before and didn't really want to spend that much money. So I resisted the urge to shop and went for dinner instead. Halfway through, I couldn't resist and left to get the top haha!

I also recently bought this skirt from LB. I was a little hesitant at first cause I'm in between sizes. The problem with me is that my waist is a size XS while my hips are size S. So if I get smth in size S, the waist will be too loose for me. Can you feel my painnnnn (inserts sobbing emoji). But I couldn't really care that much cause I needed to cart out before everything gets oos! Since my sister got the one in size S, I got the XS one and I'm glad I did! The waist is just nice for me and the material is stretchy actually so my hips fit fine(:

I really love the textures of both the top and skirt (as you can see from the last photo). Was gng for a preppy kind of look and went with brown accessories. In this case, earrings, bag and shoes. I think I somewhat look like a school kid too? Haha! Definitely going to rewear the top and skirt someday cause it's just so structured and comfy! It looks like what you'd get at Zara actually in my opinion(:

This set of photos were all taken by Dian Zi! Thanks for braving the weather and running around with me(:

Here's what I wore for Christmas a few days back. This dress is actually my prom dress and this is my second time wearing it out! That means it was just hanging in my wardrobe for a year untouched haha! I just nvr found a special occasion to wear it.

Speaking of prom, I actually bought this dress 6 months before prom cause I didn't want to clash with others. Which explains why I'm hunting for a prom dress starting from now even though it's a year ltr. This is one of my favourite dresses from Miss Selfridge. It's just so dainty and perfect for a tea party! The little peek-a-boo in the middle was super fun too. I was secretly hoping that my prom theme in sec 4 would have smth to do with a tea party but it didn't turn out that way haha! Who cares, this dress still brought me lots of compliments(:

 

 

 

 

Just some of the many photos I took during prom(: You see the photo I took with the group of girls? Those are my awesome dancer buddies! I miss them so much and our meet up is long overdue! Really need to catch up with them soon.

Well anw, how was everyone's boxing day? I was out at vivo that day and there were massive sales gng on everywhere! I didn't buy anything that day though cause they didn't have my size. In order to cheer myself up, I came home and bought a TTR romper online haha! Can't wait to receive it!
