Spring Is In the Silk Kimono














I can smell Spring in the air. Often before and during the Chinese New Year period, winds get pretty strong and there is that certain freshness in the air. Cooler breezes blow and beautiful flowers are blossoming everywhere. Rows and rows of lovely flowers and Kumquat trees are displayed everywhere to welcome the new year.

This silk kimono is the perfect outerwear to reflect the mood and spirits of the people. Blossoming flowers with the red lining all conjure up the vibes for the Lunar New Year.

Showing A Little Shoulder












It's tradition before the Lunar New Year that we spring clean our homes and basically throw out the old to bring in the new. So running through my wardrobe, I found this skirt I had owned for awhile but hardly worn and decided to style it with this shoulder baring floral blouse. I'ts hard to throw out the old - let me tell you. You can also check out my other look styling this skirt here.

As many stylists are hoping, shoulder baring or off shoulder tops would be one of those trends to leave behind in 2017 as it's been around for quite awhile, and so before the seasons change, thought I would style all of these tops before they land in the Goodwill stores or get recycled.

What do you think? Would you still like to see shoulder baring tops and off shoulder tops continue trending into 2018?

Call It The Blues









What a rough week ! I was down with a viral flu and lost my voice. Felt sick as a dog and yet having to pull myself through the day with daily routines of houswork, dog walks and seeing to the family meals wore me out totally!

The only colour I could see was just the blues... finally as I started to feel a little better - it was time to head out the doors for a little breather and a much needed good cup of coffee!

I have been seeing so many 11.11 sale specials from various online portals that it was driving me nuts! Wanting to buy so many things but it's just the pull and gimmick of getting an item on a sale ( I bet it was not that much of a discount to be very honest) that had me scrolling site after site for great deals and even adding stuff to my cart that I don't even need - just because it was on sale. Then just at the final moment when I was about to click " checkout" I had a moment of awakening and decided to clear the cart instead! And there you go... 11.11 singles day sale, nothing in the cart and no shopping done....

And that's why they call it the blues!!

Tickle Me Pink










For some reason ( and this may actually spill the beans on my actual age...) but I started to feel a little nostalgic and reminiscent of the past recently. Particularly so of my teenage years and uni days. 

And so, I tapped on iTunes my favourite band of all time -Tears for Fears, and immediately the memories started flowing. I recall how I painstakingly recorded my favourite songs of the band on a casette tape and played them on my walkman with headphones on as I sat on the school bus every morning who picked me up as early as 6am in the darkness, to head for school.

Their songs were of extreme vision and each song had so much meaning to the various stages of my life. It shaped and impressed the views of the world on me at that time. The struggles of mankind. And to this day, those songs still hold such strong political meaning.

Back to this playful look, its no denying I am into blush pink at the moment and with the embroidered detailing on the neckline as well as the long sleeves, this was a hit for me!

I hope you enjoyed this look and please share with me which is your favourite band of all time. It would be fun for us to reminisce together.

Lemon Tree :: Summer's Cutest Dress Styled for Day and Night ( Featured)


Hello everyone and what a beautiful sun shiny day it is today !

The lovely people at Zaful.com was so kind to send me a couple of outfits for me to trend for Summer and to share with my lovely readers. I particularly love this Lemon print summer dress which one can style both for day and night.







I wanted to do something slightly different this time and with minor tweaks in the accessories, I took the dress from day to night. Throw on the heels, small top handle bag and dramatic statement jewelry and you have a more sophisticated look put together.

A perfect outfit for vacation, style this dress for day, replacing those heels with camel hue sandals and keeping jewelry to a minimum. I am so in love with pineapple designed jewelry this summer. Check out this funky pair of earrings from french designer " Balabooste".






I must admit the dress was a little short for me but still worked out perfectly for Summer ( sneaked a pair of shorts underneath).

So hurry and check out summer's lovely dresses now on Zaful.com using the following code for a surprise discount for all my readers : ZFEN01.

With free worldwide shipping and with a 72hr sale currently on, do check out other popular dresses in summer's favourite shade of orange. I love these findings on Orange Bodycon Dresses which are so sexy to style.



Have fun shopping !
