Fall 2012

This fall, prints will continue to be the rage. From gothic, eastern tobaroque inspired, you have countless patterns and motifs tochoose from. 

Hop on the military trend, which is also making a loud entrancewith army-style jackets.
Loving the Military shirt styled with mini flower prints. Plus a pair of kick-ass boots to go  with. Looking strong and feminine at the same time.

This is also the time to experiment with layers. Look androgynousyet feminine, by pairing tougher looking outerwear such as leather or denim jackets,with dainty frills or sequin dresses.

Create what is known as the “androgynous yet feminine look” thatLondon’s fashion week has been raving about.

Here are some outfits that I think work magic.


Pixie Market

White denim is so hard to find! White denim vest adds an extra amount of attitude to an otherwise girly outfit. The details of the skirt are amazing too. Love the front zip!

Pixie Market

Rocker Jacket with a printed top gives off cool vibes. Pair it with high waist shorts or a bandage skirt to look perfect.

Of course, not forgetting my favourite fashion icons who are dressed in trend too:

Rumi Neely



An ecletic mix of boyish and girlish details

COOTDS Cindy Heyden:



Army prints, zebra prints, whats there not to love?

More feature-worthy looks from Lookbook:


Love the sunnies, necklace and ring that make the outfit stand out. I get this laid back and cool vibe from her because she's dressed in mostly earth tones. Still, the necklace stood out for its interesting drape-y details.


Military is in rage for sure. Pair it with a Gothic inspired black maxi and a layered choker. Bad enough for you?


Goth-inspired skirt and black biker jacket. Paired with gold plated arm candies, mickey sunnies, and Jeffrey Campbells, this look is good to go.

Summer is over, but i still cant stop loving florals. Paired with a vintage box bag, this look is girly but edgy at the same time.

Time to dig up my wardrobe! Im thinking of pairing a peach maxi with astructured denim jacket. Or a military inspired blazer with apaisley-printed short dress. I like how styling gives you the opportunity to draw inspiration from trends and put together your own pieces. More to come!


run

the more i run, the more i love my body, not because it's perfect, far from it, but because with every mile it is proving to me that I am capable of more than I ever thought possible.

genting getaway


Welcome to Genting's First World Outdoor Theme Park!
Look at the cutest bear ever!

Thank you Nuffnang for allowing us a Genting getaway- where we feasted, snoozed, and had a ball of time atop the mountains!

Food first, just because food=love


Restoran Hainan Chicken: Hainanese Chicken Rice, Salmon with yogurt mayonnaise mm rich food in the early morning! carrot and watermelon juice accompanied for some detox! The salmon dish was really flavorful, the mashed potato was buttery and oh so fragrant. But the chicken rice was .. the chicken was rather tough and dry :( i thought they were supposed to be known for their chicken rice! The spicy chilli and fragrant rice saved the dish though. A good stopping point for travellers- free wifi to use!



International Cuisine at Coffee Terrace: we had Japanese, Chinese, Nyonya and Western. The food was aplenty, but the notable ones would be Japanese: cold thick slices of sashimi, slurpy soba! Western: flavourful tomato pasta, but makes you feel full easily! Desserts: Strawberry cake, huge rose flavored macarons, and flaky chocolate-coconut cake. Drinks: Ice cold apple juice!


First World Cafe Buffet: on the 8th floor of the hotel. Piping hot Goreng Pisang that I could not stop reaching for, spicy prata, fragrant nasi bryani with crispy keropok. it was a Malay food galore. Tasty fruits to cleanse your palate after the meal as well! 



Dimsum at Hao You Ji: early morning goodness that is really affordable! The fried dishes were the best but sold out so fast- the charsiew pastry and beancurd rolls were so unforgettable. the custard buns oozed with goodness too!



Dining by the window as we munched on yummy dimsum. Being so high up feels so surreal, right?


Genting Palace Restaurant: Steamed garoupa is the best dish everrr. They should have deboned it though. Lotus Soup. Tasteful and Nutritious. Pu' er tea! Lily Bulb. Happy faces.


Ripley's Believe it or Not Museum: Quirky Objects and Exhibits like the chair for the Biggest Man in the World, the Luckiest Chair made of horseshoes which we just had to sit on, a gold-coin plated car and a Bespectacled fish!


Gallivanting at First World Plaza which is super flashy. Globalisation- Kpop dances all the way. Shopping till 1 am! Delish Opera chocolate cake from The Lobby Cafe. Great for a midnight snack!



Happy at First World Outdoor Theme Park. with my third-time travel companion



Not many photos at the theme park as we had to keep our cameras in the lockers! but this was on a silly train ride where we had a great view of the park. Also, my gungho friend who suited up for Sky Venture, and flew in this enclosed space with winds up to 193km/hr!



Pretty First World Plaza: mandatory touristy photo by the fountain!



 Ripley's Believe It or Not museum: of bulgy eyes and towering men.



Ripley's Haunted Museum: so scary i almost cried hahaha i hate people touching me in the dark!!



View from the 26th floor: breathtaking scenery of Genting's winding roads, pretty pink tree in full glory and Best weather Ever. It was 17 degrees at night! We wandered out in T-shirt and shorts and boy it felt like we were in winter! The fog made the whole place look and feel so magical too.




Favourite ride at the Theme park has to be the flying coaster: hand-gliding concept. We lay flat and literally flew up and about as the wind caressed our hair.

Cam-whoring with an unused London-inspired double-decker bus, phone booth and a wagon? Most random but fun anyway.



Personally, I feel the weather allows for summer wear. Just bring along a cardigan or a scarf for when the weather gets chilly as the sun sets.

This has been the most spontaneous getaway ever. Thank you Nuffnang once again! and also for the Five Stars coach that brought us on a most luxurious coach ride away and back to Singapore.

Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels

re: me and obsession with desire for skinny legs. I would say skinny healthy is good, but I also have to say that Crystal Renn (right model) looks so good!!
