Liquorice Candy















When I was putting this outfit together for this blog post - what came to mind immediately was Liquorice candy. The layered colours on my top matched the picture above of liquorice candy and just totally struck me of something sweet, gummy and certainly yummy!

This beautiful satin strapped silk top is perfect for summer, easy to mix and match and I wanted to bring out the pink in the whole outfit. Hence, finding this beautiful shophouse backdrop in the same shade of pink was beyond my delight and it was just a stone's throw away from the school I work at. These beautiful conservation houses -  very reminiscent of my peranakan heritage, was the perfect location shot. I am sure you would have seen similar style backdrops in my previous posts highlighting such conservation houses, which you can check them out here and here.

Kept this look trendy yet simple, a style that can easily take you from day brunches to shopping to evening dinners. A small crossbody bag finished off the look and I must add that this beautiful pair of earrings from Halo Halo Baby rose again to complete the look. You can check out more outfit posts trending this pair of earrings herehere & here.

Enjoy the rest of your week ahead!

Love,

Top Summer Colour 2018 :: Meadowlark













As much as I love pastel shades, but this hottest Spring/ Summer 2018 colour trend : Meadowlark certainly had me at " hello"!

A bold, confident and bright yellow shade, it totally makes one feel so happy when looking at this colour and it certainly does seem to light up the room and space around you! How can you not fall in love with this trending shade?

This was a look I had recently styled whilst away on a short vacay and I love pairing this shade of yellow with natural tones. The natural tone hat, slides and the rattan clutch completed this holiday outfit whilst to add a little oomph to the look, I finished the look off with a statement pair of black and white earrings.

I hope you like this look and do let me know in the comments below if you would trend this colour for Summer?

Here are some runway looks I love in Meadowlark.

Summer Must Have :: Pom Pom Straw Bag










Hi everyone. I have been searching high and low, contemplating on various styles of straw bags for Summer and this particular style from Rosegal came out tops on my list. To be honest, it was between a straw bag or a black faux leather backpack that would carry all my essentials. Surprisingly enough - this straw pom pom bag was roomier than expected!

The straw weave is so pretty and the short rounded handle makes it easy to carry without sweeping the floor. The accents of the little pom pom is my favourite with multi coloured balls attached to both sides of the bag. I love how the added tassel is thrown in on one side for " more is more"!! The perfect accessory to compliment summer looks.

Paired this lovely bag with my wooden crochet beaded necklace with a short cute dress and slip on plimsolls for a casual weekend look.

Blue Summer :: Summer Dress + Lace Wedges


Hi everyone and sorry for being silent for over a week. It's been crazy busy with a recent trip to arrange for our relocation out of Hong Kong and certainly much has to be done in such a short spate of time.

Everything happening so quickly, Easter came and went in a blink of an eye and I hardly had the chance to sit down to even celebrate my 17th Wedding Anniversary over Easter Weekend. We knew there will be more time for us to enjoy a quiet time together once we have relocated and settled, but just not for now.


Embroidered jeans and tops and dresses are all the rage this Spring/ Summer 2017 and here I trend this loose Summer dress perfect for vacations and just knocking around out about my day.





Adding that extra pop of colour with the multi-coloured chandelier statement earrings and bright yellow Goyard clutch to complete the look.





Will be heading out on a teachers' conference in China in a couple of days time but hope to share more trending styles with you soon once I return.

Thanks for reading.

Let's Go To The Circus ( Museum)!

Hi everyone,

Was recently at the Ringling Bros Circus Museum in Sarasota, Florida and my word it was indeed a day well spent taking in the miniature circus display, admiring the beautiful costumes and having a first hand view of the props used in those days!




Whilst walking around the grounds of this beautiful museum, I had to whip out my camera for some shots to share with you. The ornate architecture of the buildings was something that just had to be captured on film to be remembered forever.





The luscious green grounds and ornate architecture was just simply too stunning not to set the backdrop for another post.



I had to have some fun when I came across an " old friend"!



You could see I was a little uncomfortable with this shot but just had to have some fun fooling around!




As you would have noticed, another post on my favourite colour for Summer - WHITE! Just loving this white eyelet dress from London Times. So cool, comfy and certainly a pretty dress to take along on any holiday vacation.


Check out those little dwarfs photobombing me amidst the Banyan Trees!

I hope you enjoyed this post and stay tune for another great giveaway coming your way real soon !
