Pink Sorbet
















Living so close to a heritage site - where the buildings are under the Singapore government's conservation plans to preserve these ornately designed art deco style homes, I had to include these beautiful buildings in my post.

The brightly coloured shophouses provided the ideal colourful background to my pink outfit. A perfect match when I spotted the backdoor of one of these shophouses painted in the exact shade of my outfit!

Hope you enjoyed this Spring look and will most certainly bring more of this beautiful site of homes in our future posts.

Palm Beach :: Hi-Lo Summer Dress + HASK Beauty









Hi everyone. I hope that those of you affected by Hurricane Irma are staying strong and keeping safe. Personally, my in-laws are living close to Tampa, Florida and it was such a nail biting week where we were glued to both the TV, Skype and Phone to keep updated on the hurricane and to stay in touch with our love ones.

Thank you to all of you who have sent me messages and texts to enquire and for your prayers and support. They are both doing fine even though they have stayed in the house and not evacuated and thank god, they suffered little damage to the property. We were also lucky to have electricity and water. But it was a really tough week being so far away and feeling helpless.

So here's a post that reminded me lots of Palm Beach ( and Florida in general). I love the palm leaf / fern prints for summer items and whilst many of you are already heading into Fall fashion, here we are in the tropics with Summer all year round.

This hi-low dress from Shein.com is such a easy to wear weekend outfit. And thank god the ankle's feeling lots better so managed to style it with heels. Keeping the whole summer feel in line, I paired this look with my favourite palm leaf/ feather drop silver earrings and accessorised with nude heels and clutch for a less busy look seeing that the palm leaf prints was what I wanted to focus on.

Coincidentally, I am also trying to do a redecoration of my apartment and deciding on a British Colonial theme. So pretty much keeping my existing furniture, and just playing around moving them around the house in various positions and peppering the living room with lots of green plants all help to create this similar Palm Beach feel. Will share pictures with you once I have completed this project.


A big shout-out to my favourite people of HASK of which I only discovered their products eversince returning to Singapore. I love their range of hair care products from daily shampoo / conditioner to hair masks, oil treatments and stylers. A U.S brand formulated for different hair types and condition, all their products are free of sulphates and parabens and reasonably priced unlike most high end salon product(s).

I have noticed my hair condition significantly improve since using HASK and would not hesitate to recommend them. If you head to their website you will be able to see their popularity around the world and where to buy them at your nearest drug store / chemist.

Have fun trying out their products and I hope you enjoyed this post.

Bloody Mary :: Red Cuffed Pants + Embroidered Top


Hi everyone,

After weeks of unpacking and settling into a new routine, I finally managed to take some time off to visit the Singapore Art Museum recently with my son as there was a children's exhibition ongoing at the moment.

Being housed in an old building I loved the architecture of the museum and had to take some outfit shots to highlight in my post.



Am back to trending drop earrings this summer. Found this pretty palm leaf patterned pair at Lovisa!


The art installations were very captivating but I  particularly liked the one from Mary Bernadette Lee (Singapore) entitled " Wanderland". If I could redo a baby's nursery this would be what I would have liked the nursery to look like!


These pretty fabric lanterns reminds me so much of the globe and it was like looking through to the unknown!

Back to the outfit, I had styled this pair of comfy cuffed pants last Summer when I was holidaying in Florida ( check out the post here). Unfortunately with the move this year, we could not head out to see family for summer but will hopefully do so over Christmas.


I love the slouchiness of this pair of pants and it is perfect for the hot summer weather - given I had so many " war wounds" from the move and my legs were so badly scratched up. I was just too embarrass to be trending anything above the knee.




Hope you like this pairing. Have a good weekend ahead!

Happy midweek everyone.

Finally! Unpacked all 147 boxes that arrived from Hong Kong and it's just been a crazy mad 2 weeks. As I slowly settle into a new routine and get everything organised and in order, here's a quick midweek post to pick up the pace and get myself back into action.

Many of you would have noticed that I have slowed down considerably over the last few weeks... trust me I wish I had more time but it's not easy with this move. I hope all will be back on track again from now on.






Now if I can share a little secret with you. I have not been watching TV for the longest time - just had not had the time in Hong Kong with work and blogging and all. But since I am stuck at home now for most of the day, with the move and before I perhaps head back to the workforce again... I have had the TV on whilst I am busy ironing and doing the housework and got hooked on a particular reality TV show from the US.

" Married at First Sight" had been around since 2014 but I only just discovered it and boy... am I hooked!! Its a nice change from having to do crafts and prepare songs and story puppets although I do miss working with my kindy kids so much!



So the reason I brought this up was that watching the very first pilot series - Jamie (one of the wives on the show) had such great style and I love her lip colours and funky accessories. Often I am more crazy about accessories and fashion than makeup itself but this time I am badly wanting to go out and get all the lip colours she's been trending. And so here is the first of the light pinks she has been wearing. I love it!!




Before I sign off, please excuse the state of my nails ( chipped and broken) due to all that unpacking... but not to worry - the diva is back on track and I have got them all fixed now. It was hard ... let me tell ya!



Enjoy the rest of the week ahead !
