Of Art & Mirrored Bombs

Outfit details:  Top // Zara  Skirt // New Look  Plimsolls // Pazzion  One of the perks of our nation turning 50 is having free passes to museums last month, for the entire month of August I've covered as much museum grounds as possible. While my visit at 'After Utopia' exhibition at SAM, I ran into two ladies who seem to have a hard time taking photos, so being the nosy person that I am I approached them to ask if they needed help in taking photos. Chatted for a bit to realize that they from Taiwan and one of them were here to visit their daughter. They were very nice people by the way. If you guys were to come across tourists or just anyone that needs a little hand in taking photos, do them a favor and help them out. You'll never know when you'd be at the receiving end some day. Since I spent most of my days museum hopping, I made sure to dress in comfort. My plimsolls were the best pair of shoes that I've ever bought, it...

My Dream Workspace

Image
I've always imagined my dream work space to be surrounded by white bricked walls with full length windows. During the day, the sunlight that peeks through the window would give the cold interior some warmth. Having ample sunlight indoors is one of a way that keeps your spirits uplifted. Who would want to work in darkness anyways? Here are some of the items that I would have to create my ideal work space. My Dream Work Space by sweetsx3 Vinyl player (with a couple of my favorite vinyl records) I know I know, Spotify is everybody's companion nowadays and people these days hardly buy physical CDs, much less vinyl records. Call me old school but I like the idea of having a vinyl player in my work space. Imagine playing a good old Beatles album on the vinyl and how heavenly it would sound. Also, the modern vinyl player is exceptionally aesthetically pleasing, talk about being doubled up as a part of interior design. Terrarium I must admit that I'm n...

Get Back on Track

Top: New Look  Floral Skirt: New Look  Boots: Panda Wanda  Hat: Forever 21  Last month's adventure was to discover one of the photos spots in Singapore - The old railway track. Looking back at the photos, I'm glad that the photos turned out great. Usually great means I found good enough shots that makes it on my blog or Instagram and there isn't stray hairs on my face or the photo doesn't look awkward. Recalling back to the mini hike up to the railway tracks put my life at great risk. I almost tripped over the uneven grounds and evil little stones. Any shoe with an elevated heel is a bad idea, unless you have someone who'd catch you when you fall, then maybe you may consider bringing out your best stilettos. I had so much fun in August that it's depressing to see it end. If you're following me on Instagram, you would have known that I've been to two concerts (Kodaline & Imagine Dragons) this month! As immature and unrea...

The Perfect Wedding Pair

Image
Hola everyone~ I'm bringing you another style challenge and this time it is in collaboration with Weddington Way. The challenge today is to create the perfect pair by matching a bridesmaid dress alongside a tuxedo. Mismatched bridesmaids dresses seems to be the way for weddings now, long gone are the tradition for matchy-matchy bridesmaid dresses. One of the ways to add cohesion into the group is to coordinate the color of the bridesmaid dress with the bow-tie of the groomsman. For the bridesmaid dress, I chose to go with a platinum colored dress. The silver gray color has a touch of elegance and the simplistic design makes it fun to add on accessories.  As for the groomsman, I've chosen a blue tuxedo with a matching platinum bow-tie. Sometimes the blue suit could be overlooked as people tend to stick to the usual grey or black suit for the formal event, and of course I just had to go with a bow-tie because it simply gives a fun and quirky vibe to it.   Do ...

Hello to you my furry friends! I know that I've been gone from this space for too long but now I'm back on the grind. So look forward to more outfit posts and contents about things that interests me.  Horse printed blouse: Dorothy Perkins Lilac skirt: New Look  Earrings: H&M Bag: Rabeanco  Pink ballet falts: Pazzion  By now everyone must have already known about my obsession with sweets and desserts. Last month I had the best bingsoo of all time! It's aesthetically pleasing (Instagram worthy) and so delicious! As much as I'm deceiving myself, I'd still like to think that it's a healthy dessert considering that you have at least half a melon to finish off beneath the shaved ice. Desserts are really my weak spot, bring me to a have sweets and my heart is yours. Haha.  Alrighty, till next time!  To all the readers who stuck around, hopefully my outfit posts inspire you in a way or it gives you a reason to go on a ...

When Worlds Collide

Outfit details:  White T-shirt (Dorothy Perkins)  Cream sleeveless blazer (New Look)  Jeans (Dorothy Perkins)  Platform Shoes (Bugis Street)  Last set of outfit photos shot using my Samsung NX1000, which came as a surprise to me that even after two years it's still functioning well and it unexpectedly outlive my Samsung NX210. Then again, this might just be the last time I'm getting myself a Samsung camera. There were so many occasions that the Samsung camera broke my heart! But I'm now renewed and recharged, I've now move on to team Canon now! I've scouted this wall of graffiti art to be featured in my outfit photos two years back but I haven't gotten a chance to piece an outfit that could possibly bring out the vibrant colors of the art. Now that I'm decked in muted colors and wardrobe basics, it's just a perfect combination with the beautiful wall paintings. Recently on my playlist, I've been keeping James Bay's alb...
