Come One Come All

I've moved! Come visit me here!

Public Announcement

ALSO NOTE:
If anyone wants Melly's (frm Green Laundry) signature or want to take a picture with her, ,
she will be there with me yelling le-long le-long (for non-Singaporeans it means yelling "buy my crap!" imo of course) , so this is your big chance.

I wuff u Melly! Please don't beat me up. =D

Eff Me.

Hahaha... So designing a blog isn't exactly as easy as I thought it was going to be. F-me, I even dreamt of codes. Seriously. Now I'm bribing my colleague with 3 meals to help me with the CSS styling. I mean when I actually solve a code issue, I feel really good about myself. Talk about basking in the smallest moments in life. So embarrassing though... hehe...

So here's a cuppa tea for you today...



Images courtesty of Fudge Graphics and Heals.

It's the 23rd of Feb!

How cute and innovative is this?! ... It's a frigging Human Calender!!
I seriously wonder how some people have so much time to make stuff like these.

Mother Maria

Remember the dress I previously blogged about...? Well... I got it! =D
I decided something so pretty is definitely a waste to pass up. Plus thankfully I managed to get the last piece in my size! Woot!

So anyways I decided to do some of my own research into the brand and was pleasantly or unpleasantly surprised to find that Mother Maria had so much more to offer. I say unpleasantly because I am now unhealthily obesessed with Katie Gannon's designs. They are so whimsical, to which I would definitely wear everything in her collection!

These are a few of my favourites!








CHINESE NEW YEAR HOLIDAYS ARE COMING UP! SO FRIGGING EXCITED!
FINALLY... some free time to do some sewing.
dong dong dong chiang!

Murakami Flower Power

This would make a totally epic Halloween costume!
I wonder if Takeshi Murakami actually took time out to make this himself... hmmm... LOL

Boys Are Still Smelly

A very cute film to brighten up your day.
Warning: Not for boys, cause yer all are smelly. =P









I know its a super random film but 3 things I think its trying to tell me

1. Boys are daft.
2. Don't piss us off, or we'll pulverize you!
3. I really need to get a pretty bicycle too...

Weekend is almost here.... Yay!

Pretty Moss

Moss Terrariums seem to be the latest thing. It, I think, is about growing moss or other small little plants in a jar, only watering them every 2-3 weeks and just letting them grow on their own. They look pretty in this photo, then again, the only impression I have of moss is that eeky/yet surprisingly fluffy thing that grows on the insides of my neighbor's coil fish pond. Oh well, I doubt I'd be trying to make one myself... Don't have a green thumb.

Anyways they are available here on Etsy

Too Sweet

Can't stop thinking about this dress. Unfortunately it's totally out of my budget. Boo!

Something New

New Blog coming soon.
Check in on the 1st of Feburary 2009!

Big thanks to you peeps who still visit my blog for rare and miserable updates.
I promise a spanking new and hopefully exciting blog!
Hugs and kisses everyone!

A Sunny Saturday

It was about time I visited Casual Poet and who better to go with than Melly! Going out with the woman is always fun and interesting. Also it's nice to know she genuinely finds my "jokes" funny... Or at least I think so. haha... So anyways everyone should take some time to drop by Casual Poet for a light lunch/tea and maybe even some shopping. Their food is an absolute delight and their range of products too lovely, I want them all!! The girl working there that day was attentive and very friendly, making the overall visit uber enjoyable.


Menu on the wall.




Choices. Choices. Choices.


Ehlo-ha!


I love her watch, it has a calculator function that actual works!


haha! The very shy Melly trying to pose for the bossy photographer.


Trying to take a picture of the Chanel comb necklace my dearest Ezra got me for X'mas. =D

Shout out to PJ who said hi to two of us at Casual Poet. Apologies if we weren't like as loud and obnoxious as our online personas, Melly and I are very shy in real life. Kudos go out to her for majoring in Chinese, which we both think is really admirable and made us feel a little... erm.. dumb? lol.

Welcoming 2009

*Annual Report cover I did for fun! =D If only the client was as crazy as me huh huh?

So here I am on X'mas eve, stuck in the office. I mean we're totally allowed to take the half day off, but I figured... now is the best time to make good rapport with the bosses and the rest that are staying back. Afterall, X'mas is the spirit of giving... therefore I'm giving up precious sleep time for this.... Hmmm maybe it's not that worth it in the end... haha... Hope everyone's having a good X'mas.

Love, hugs and kisses all round.

Good Bye 2008

Jobless Annonymous No More

I'm finally working! Like a proper graphic design job at a design firm! After one day, I really do like it. How many people can actually say that they like their jobs? So this has left me only my weekends to squander time away... Mahjong with Aisyah, Charlotte and my dear Sonia who has returned for a visit from London, Going Ikea, partying with the girls, having a sleepover at the boyfriend's, visit to Kinokuniya downtown. Time seems to past so fast when you're having a damn good time. Finally, that hole in my life has been covered up with much joy. I'm on top of the world! =D

So as expected, I will be ignoring my blog for a little while till everything in my life starts to get a little less hectic. I told you something good will be up soon right? =D So the holidays are approaching, hope everyone has good fun now yer hear?! =)


Cheers from me to you!


Soon, Imma wear this to work! =)

Yippie yip yip.

3 girls, 2 Buffets and a really big Party!

Zouk Out was pretty fun. Some people might say spectacular, but I'm just going to say fun, cause at the end of the day, it's just the company that makes your day. The music was pretty good, the alcohol sucked but the friends made it gurreeatt. For all you non-Singaporeans out there... Zouk Out is an annual beach party hosted by Zouk Club and is attended by over 25,000 people. Honestly, I had a feeling there might have been as many foreigners as there were locals.

Photos!

My new bowler hat... =D Like finally... And my little heart badge I never leave home without now!


We preferred the grass to the sand.


Miss Hawtness... Also known as Miss Drunkness for the night. hehe.


A kind staff gave the float to us! It was our cushioning for the night.
And the lovable Miss Charlotte Chew!

I might be really getting too old for this... Zouk Out 2009? I would... if Ezra was going to with me that night but NO CHANCE... Meh. At least he gives free water. Pui! =P

******

Anyways, Ezra and I had planned a stay at the Rasa Sentosa Shangri'La for Sunday. Well, it was more my idea since we always wanted to like have a mini getaway. The poor boy was exhausted after working for nearly 24 hours straight. However, we were rewarded with a comfy bed, 2 buffets and a whole lot of sleep. =D


Our favourite photo. Period.

p.s Rasa Sentosa's standard has really dropped. Sadly, it's pretty disappointing in terms of food and facilities. They should really do some major upgrading!

Have a great Week Ahead. I'm Outtie!

And she's off.

So I'm going to be really busy this weekend. Charlotte and I are going for Zouk Out and won't you believe it's our first time in 22 years. Kinda odd when we used to go clubbing thhhhaaaaaattt much. We're probably staying the whole night, only because transportation is going to be a killa biatch for us. Anyways Sunday late morning, will finally get to be Ezra and we have something special planned... =D I'm uber excited!

Anyways here's some pretty photos from my trip to Barcelona almost 2 years back, in the magnificent Gaudi designed apartments.





******

Paper packaging I did for final year that I would love to make into actual acrylic boxes. How cool would that be right?! =D (And yup, I actually made the whole thing by hand, cutting was a major pain.)


Have a great weekend loves!

Time to Say Goodbye

Who doesn't love shoe sales! I'm selling off my shoes which most women would consider a stab in the heart cause really, which lady wants to part with her shoes. However, thankfully for me and maybe quite shockingly, I am not a shoe person. If I could do a Nicole Richie and walk barefooted everywhere, I would! Anyways, presenting my shoes!




My mum's brown vintage oxfords size 36.5 - 37. Very gorgeous leather and in 9.5/10 condition. You'd think I'd keep this pair but, I'm happy with the black ones from KG. =D Price is 30USD.


Brand new patchwork oxford heels sized 37. Bought them cause I thought they were unique, but that was it. LOL. Must stooopp... must... ssttttoooo...ppp... =D Brown area is suede. Price is 16USD (reserved)




The cutout heels that everyone lusted for. It's a size best 36.5-37.What's unique about this pair is that its vintage/contemporary style. I've only worn it once, so it's in good condition. Heel is 2.5" high. Priced at 13USD. (reserved)




Very adorable cream fringed suede heels worn only once, so very good condition. Fits size 37, heel height is almost 3". Price is 13USD.


Last but not least, my Doc Martins which have only been worn once. They are like in 98% good condition, well actually like brand new. Unfortunately, I don't get a chance to wear these babies in Singapore cause of the weather, plus I'm too effing lazy. Looking for a new owner who will love these pair! They are size 37. Price is: 60USD. *Singapore buyers only*

New York, New York

Tee: Holland Village, Skirt: H&M, Belt: frm Malaysia, Shoes: Wheelock Place

Actually, that's not true. I've been to New York, twice. Just got this tee because it took the mick out of people who wear the I heart NY tee, but haven't been there yet. I do like New York but at the same time, the last two times I went there, I felt very exhausted at the end of each day just doing nothing. The hustle and bustle of the city is maybe not very much for me... =(

Anyways, I'll be blogging less for the next few weeks. I'll be busy prepping for my new room, new website and new blog. Expect new fun stuff when everything is done. Hopefully. =)

Lots of Love to everyone!
