Happy Lunar New Year!

The lunar new year is an occasion that I love most because... it's such a great excuse to get new things for myself, the ang baos that I'll be collecting and visiting to relatives whom I've got the chance to meet once every year. This year was no different.

Before the year of the dragon came to an end, our family had reunion dinner at mama (that's how I call my grandma) house. We had the usual steamboat with a lot of ingredients that were solely prepared by my lovely grandparents. Sadly, I didn't have pictures but we had a really great meal. We also had a mini photograph session with the little cutiepie Jaydee. 


 It's me and the cutiepie Jaydee! 

This what I wore to mama house for reunion dinner.
Chambray top (Cotton On)//Orange culottes (BKK)// Double buckle white studded belt (Dorothy Perkins)//Beaded headband (F21)// Mom's watch// Bangles (New Look)// Silver arrow bangle (Lovisa) 


Look at how my house is beautiful decorated, it really sets the mood for Chinese New Year! It's all my mom's hard work and effort! Haha. 

Finally, the first day of Chinese New Year is here an the day to finally wear my new clothes came! It took me so much determination to keep telling myself to keep the new clothings for new year. Hahaha. 

This was what I wore on the first day~ 

Outfit of the day: Mint chiffon dress (ASOS)// Pastel orange bag (Charles & Keith)// Belt (BKK)// Diamond ring (Mom's)// Bangles (New Look)// Bow hair clip (BKK)// Nude loafers (Pazzion)  


 With my best bro! 

My mom & I! It a rare occasion for us to take a picture together. Isn't she pretty? :) 

With my god-parents~ 

With my dearest grandparents~ 


With my friend/aunt/sister/god-mommy/moly/lan fei niang niang~ She has got so many roles to play in my life. 

The cutiepie and my bro! Baby Jelly is so adorable, she finally learned to do the 'peace' hand sign. I'm gonna teach her the rock and roll hand sign soon. Haha. 

Day 02 of CNY! 


My outfit for CNY Day 02.

Dinner prepared by my dad! My dad's buddy came over with his family and joined us for dinner. 
Lo hei before adding the crackers and sauce.

Home-made pen cai, which is a tradition to eat various veggies.


Day 03 of CNY

My childhood friends came over to my house for a gathering we haven't had in a long time.

Yubo came over too~


 With my childhood bff~ 

We chit-chatted all day long and played card games through the day. I picked up some new games from Tze How as well~

I hope everyone had a great time celebrating Chinese New Year, had fun gambling and collecting red packets~ 

And... Let's welcome the year of the snake with open arms! 

And now Chinese New Year is over... It's time to move on and start revision because my mid-terms are coming soon. :S

Happy Lunar New Year everyone, I hope yours was a blast as well! 

XOXO ❤

Mayday had been my ultimate favourite band for years but I haven't had the chance to attend their concert.  After watching almost all of Mayday's concert online last year, I told myself I need to experience that and if they were to come to Singapore I have to watch them. And whoohoo, my wish was answered!  So, I bought tickets to watch the Now&Here World Tour @ Singapore Indoor Stadium  That was my first time watching a concert  (JYJ's showcase is not counted because it isn't a full length concert.), and I just couldn't contain my excitement. I've been looking forward to this day ever since I booked the tickets in February.  The crowd at Singapore Indoor Stadium  I'm so glad that Sharlene and I share the same interest in the same band! She's the best.   Sharlene's light sabre, Haha, she's always so cute!   The weather in SG is so cray cray nowadays. T-shirt is the way to go!  Finally inside the concert hal

✈ Bangkok  To more adventures ahead... ๐Ÿ“Siam  Nearest BTS: Siam For all of my past trips to Bangkok, our home base never left Pratunam. Pratunam is a fabulous place to stay when your primary focus is for hardcore shopping at Platinum Fashion Mall, Krung Thong plaza and its morning market. A little fyi for y'all shopaholics, Glow & Centerpoint Pratunam are my top hotel choices for that area. For this trip, we made Siam Novotel our home base and boy oh boy do I love this location so damn much. There's so much to do, shop and eat without having to travel far. A great line-up of massage parlors across the hotel, the surrounding of shopping malls,  BTS station right at its door step, bustling night market and wide array of delicious Thai eateries & restaurants to taste. There just so much to see and do at Siam.  ๐Ÿ“ Three Wheels Tom Yam Noodle 414/18-19 Rama 1 road, Patumwan Ban gkok, Thailand 10330 A 2 minutes walk from Novotel Siam b

Hello! I'm back again after a week of intense revision for mid-terms for law. How have everyone been? This week had been hectic because of all the revision that I had to do, I hardly have time to sleep or even watch my favourite T.V shows. :S But all was good this week.. This was what I've been up to for the week. So thankful that the test went pretty well and I'm so done with it! Nail of the Week! If you know me well enough you'd know that I do manicures and pedicures myself. My favourite brand of nail polish is O.P.I even though I do use nail polishes from other brands as well. O.P.I will always be my ultimate favourite. These two colours are my current favourites and I've used the pink one consecutively two weeks. Left: NL M14 (I'm All Ears) & NL Z19 (Glitzerland) Both the colors are so beautiful that I couldn't make up my mind which to use. So I used both colors on the hands. Outfit of the week! This was what I wore to school on M
