Picnic Ready

 
 
 
 
 
 

An outfit which I wore 3 weeks back for a picnic date with Rifdi and my sister. I've nvr been a huge fan of having a picnic in Singapore cause the places for picnics are so far and the weather is just insanely hot. But somehow I just decided to tag along and boy was it fun!

We had a picnic at Botanic Gardens and it was really quit convenient! We bought all the food items at the shops nearby and just brought the mats and ciders. Which reminds me, Rifdi actually forgot to bring a bottle opener so we had to borrow it from an American family haha! Always bring a bottle opener when you buy drinks!


A glimpse of what we had that day! Now I'm really into picnics. Anyone up for a picnic date? (:

Earth Hues


So many things to blog about my HK trip but I'm still stuck at the ootd ones haha! But I promise I'll get to doing up travelogues soon and I'm actually quite excited to do a 10 places to dine at in HK post! 

Well today's post is on this outfit I put tgt before the trip and it's inspired by Beatrice's post on IG actually. There's one where she wore a white top with culottes and so I decided to try it out. Got TTR's culottes cause the length is perfect for me and it came in nude. (Huge yes to neutral tones!)

Cause it was cold that day, I decided to wear a collared shirt inside to keep myself warm. This one is from Uniqlo and its only $29.90. Quite a good price for a basic collared top. To finish off the neutral tone, I wore a nude trench and flats which I must add that I brought along for this outfit. So yes, I really plan a lot haha!

Winter Grey

 
 
 

First outfit post taking in HK! HK's weather is quite erratic and the temperature varies day by day. Just 2 days ago, it was 23 degrees and today, it's around 15 degrees. Took the chance to wear my midi out with a thin knit on the bright, sunny day 2 days ago cause I didn't want to wear a jacket with it.

I have had this outfit in my mind since the day I bought these items. Everything on me is new actually and I was saving them for this trip! What I love about the top is definitely the collar bit cause it makes it ultra preppy and adorable. Perfect with a white midi(:

Anywho just to share a little on the purpose of my trip to HK. The very first week was spent with a group of closest friends of mine in HK, bringing them around places and being all tourist. It's actually a first for me travelling around HK on tourist mode cause I'm usually with my family who knows where they want to go. I really enjoyed the past 7 days, getting lost and having to ask people for directions. I've met so many kind ppl along the way and it's really an eye opener. Well my friends have left alr and I'm gng to explore HK alone which is super exciting!! All the way till 22nd dec when Vanessa comes to HK and joins me in my mini exploration(:

Jump Street

 
 
 

Blogging all the way from Hong Kong! There's just something so calming about waking up with a cup of coffee in your hand and looking through photos that I'm not even dreaded by the amount of backlogs I have yet to complete hahaha.

Today's post features yet another tube dress. If I had to compare between this and the AFA one, I'd prefer the AFA one. This one is more structured with the waist band and flares. I prefer the AFA one because I like how the dress has no obvious waistband which allows it to hug your waist naturally then flare out. But anywho, this isn't a bad dress to own(:

In Twos

 
 
 

Hello everyone! I know it's been an insanely long time since I've blogged. In fact, I believe this is the longest hiatus I've had ever since I've started posting updates in this little space. I sincerely apologise cause As are in less than 2 weeks and October has been one heck of a month! 

After my Pre-As, I wore this dress out for a shopping date at Orchard with my sister. For those of you who are really observant, this dress might look familiar because I've blogged about it before! Just that it was in wine red so just a difference in colour(:

I have a lot of photos to share from this month but I'll probably only be posting them after As! Anw, huge thanks to those who have been checking this space!

Garden Bows


Exceptionally lots of photos for today's posts cause my brother takes really nice photos haha! Plus there's no such thing as feeling bad for asking the photographer to retake certain photos or trying different angles when the photographer is your little brother(:

Today's outfit was put tgt with the idea of being in a garden, smth picnic worthy. I didn't exactly go for a picnic but I went for a fair and so I wanted to wear smth light and breezy. Initially wanted to pair this dress with a kimono outerwear but then I'm saving that for another occasion which I'll share more details about in 2 months time after As (I can't go out now cause of As and this is really depressing but oh well)

And of course what would a picnic worthy outfit be without a straw bag! It just so happens that the bow on it is white as well so it matches my dress really well! My current favourite bag at the moment even though it's really small haha!


I can't help but share these photos. I told my bother to let me take a photo of him so that I could test the lighting. He walked there and naturally posed like this hahaha. Future model in the making?
