Hi everyone,

If you have been following me on Instagram, you would have realised that Cookie my 14.5yr old Furbaby had given up her fight with cancer and passed away, a week ago today and hence I had taken some time off from blogging and social media,  seeing she needed lots of my time and attention over the last few weeks as she counted down her days.

The good thing was that I was able to have her home with me and when she took her last breath naturally, I was holding her in my arms. The most beautiful and peaceful way for her to go and for me to have full closure.

Thank you for your comments and support on IG of which every kind word meant so much to me.

Back to this look, this was a casual look shot recently in one of the backstreets around my residential area. It is such a beautiful area where the old meets new and I love how the rustic backstreets sometimes create that perfect mood and backdrop to showcase a modern outfit.

This top by Ghospel, a UK label, has a similar print to traditional batik that one can find in Asia. And I like how a traditional print has been uplifted by a modern design of a top. Cool and comfortable I paired this look with casual jeans, a statement rattan bag and glitter wedges. Exuding the retro feel, I took some of mom's old clip on earrings to complete the look and the watch was Dad's which I thought was a perfect fit to the outfit.

I hope you like this look and here's a few pictures of Cookie photobombing me whilst I was doing my  blogging shots through the years.
