Hey everyone,
I must apologise for those of you who have been waiting for my post over a week. It has just been such a hectic week with giveaways and collaborations which I had rolled out with some brand partners over Instagram. I hope if you have been following me on IG that you have participated in these giveaways.
Well, here in Singapore, we had just celebrated our nation's 55th birthday and if you do not know yet, our national flower is the Vanda Miss Joaqhim - a gorgeous orchid! So in line with this month's National Day celebrations, I bring to you today this stunning pair of Orchid Danglers from one of my favourite statement jewellery brands - the House Of Rajput. The vibrant colour mix of blue and orange is just gorgeous against the blush hues of this flowing, full skirted and all time favourite Erika Peña dress.
Funny enough I found this headscarf which belonged to my mother in law and she had it for years ( truly vintage) and it paired perfectly for this look to cinch in my waist with. And to finish the look, this pair of V front slingback heels from ASOS which unfortunately is already sold out but there are so variations of this style which I am sure you can mix and match with to style this look.
Leaving you for now - I hope you like this outfit and here's to a Happy National Day month to ALL my Singaporean friends and followers!
Don't forget to check out my IG profile and stories for all other offers for this month!
Love,
Simone xoxo
Hi everyone,
How has your weekend been treating you so far?
Feeling a rock chic vibe today, so bringing you this casual outfit that is so cool and comfy but yet with a twist with crystal statement jewellery from
House of Rajput. I do love a good pair of statement earrings which has versatility. By that, I mean that I can easily wear it with a casual outfit ( in this case - you can't get more casual than a pair of jeans) but yet, I can also style the earrings with an evening outfit. These
Kira Hoop earrings from
House of Rajput is one such earring that fits the bill. I love how it is edgy in its own right and therefore is able to bring an outfit together.
Many of you perhaps are not as comfortable with brooches as it is a piece of jewellery that not many people would style with their wardrobes unless with an evening outfit or a work suit. This
Sol brooch also from
House of Rajput is particularly unique because it comes in a 2 part design. Therefore giving it some texture and flow rather than a solid brooch which most of us are use to. I tried to play around with the brooch to this casual outfit by pinning it onto my cap or option 2, onto my jeans - a quirky yet unique way to make a statement. For those of you who loves to trend turbans or perhaps you do wear a headscarf, this brooch is also the perfect accessory to dress up your outfit.
Threw on this chic cotton kimono for some pattern and colour variation to this pairing and we got ourselves a rock chic loo, ready to head out the door. Of course let us not forget that these handwoven and crafted boots from
The Tui Collection says it all to complete the outfit.
What do you think?
Jeans : MANGO
Cap : Anko

Hey everyone,
It's Father's Day weekend and I am sure with Phase 2 now reopened in Singapore, many of you would have taken the opportunity to go dine out and have a little mini celebration. A much deserved family bonding time over good food and drinks this weekend. Remember stay cautious, wear your mask and keep your distance.
I had posted this look on Instagram earlier on in the week and felt it should be reposted here with my full photo shoot shots highlighting and reemphasising how grateful we are of this new breakthrough with the new steroid and possibly antibody vaccine they are hoping to roll out once the data is collected and more trials done but light at the end of the tunnel for sure.
I chose to do another editorial style shoot in the comfort of my own home ( and also a safer option than heading out when all are running out and about). Played with a newspaper background and literally "broke through" to create this pictorial. I love the comfort of this rock chic look and I think it exudes some a "strong" woman / boss babe vibe to it. So went more edgy with the darker lip shade from
Amplio Beauty and upcycled this old vest with a gorgeous patch from
Just Gayas ( please do DM her on Instagram for prices and pattern options as it is not listed on her site yet). This look was finished off with a pair of stunning earrings from one of their latest collection from
Shop Lustre and bangles ( a mix of 2 sets) from
Stones That Rock. You may wish to note that they are having a storewide sale ( 25% off) all their jewellery online now till 26 June 2020, and you may also be gifted a free bracelet with your purchase.
Completing this rock chic look are these buttery soft, handcrafted, curated pair of leather booties which I have worn countless of times regardless of climate and season. Its definitely an investment footwear to own. For my followers,
The Tui Collection is offering a 25% off these Booties - use code
" Booties25" to upon checkout for this fabulous deal!!
Hope you enjoyed this post and do note many of these brands do ship internationally, with many also offering free shipping within Singapore ( local shipping). Do pay them a visit and support them if you can.
Love,
Simone xoxo

Hi everyone,
As Summer is round the corner and with budgets tightened to spend on a new summer wardrobe especially during this trying time for many of us, I thought it would be nice to bring you a look which you could stretch your dollar with and show you how to restyle a wrap dress as an outerwear.
So, this gorgeous floral cotton wrap dress aka the perfect summer dress, has been converted to an outerwear and I paired this with a simple crop tee and wide leg crop pants to bring this whole look together. Bringing out the colours in the dress, I particularly chose this funky mesh necklace from Betsey Johnson and a blue mesh bracelet from Swarovski to complete this outfit. Of course to make one look taller, always bring the colour of the skirt or pants all the way down to the heels to lengthen the look.
For those of you who have been following me, you will notice I have gone a little more creative this time with my look, playing with bold and bright pink eyeshadow for a change and of course my prop of a bunch of pink flowers was added to bring out the quirkiness in this new direction I am taking with my shoots. A little more fun, more editorial. Due to the lockdown I had to keep taking shots within my home and it got kinda boring for me to be doing my traditional fashion shots, so decided to go quirky this time.
I hope you enjoyed this look and watch this space as I bring you another post soon, where I do wear the dress and style it as it is, on its own.
Do leave me a comment and let me know if you like this bolder and more creative style of my shots.
Love,
Simone xoxo
