(EGOIST bag, Esperanza boots, Massimo Dutti knit top, Forever 21 collared top, Topshop bodycon skirt, Yhansy necklace, Watch Factory watch, olive + piper bracelets) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
Since I’ve been posting a lot of red, white and black for this series of MOFW, I figured I should just continue with it and not force myself to wear something I don’t want to wear,...

MOFW 2012 Fukuoka Day 5
(SpRay jacket, Greenhills top, FashionCookie ShoeAvenue boots, moussy bag) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
Debuting my lighter hair color in time for spring/summer. Actually, this is only my lame excuse for simply being fickle about my hair. No bleaching involved since my hair ends are pretty much fried already. I just missed the light brown after 3-4 months of dark hair. To be quite...

MOFW 2012 Fukuoka Day 4
(dazzlin skirt, Choies top, Mango blazer, EMODA earrings, Esperanza boots, Romwe bag) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
Sorry guys, my bag isn’t Laguna Moon but it sure looks like it. It was sold out when I went to the actual Laguna Moon store in Japan, but thanks to Romwe I managed to get myself the exact same design. Thanks to ViVi and a close-to-iconic photo of Lena Fuji holding...

MOFW 2012 Fukuoka Day 3
(MURUA top, moussy bag, Romwe pants, Topshop tanktop, Topman hat, Zara heels) Hype this look on Lookbook here. Thanks Kristin for helping me with these photos!
Say hello to what I call my ultimate dyslexia top! Some of the letters are flipped, making it almost impossible to understand at first glance. It would take you a good few seconds (given you have perfect eyesight) to take it...

MOFW 2012 Fukuoka Day 2
(EMODA dress and necklace, Chanel bag, Time Depot Sheen watch, Sugarfree Shoes heels, Mango sunnies) Hype this look on Lookbook here. Thanks Kristin for helping me with these photos.
My new default lazy dress c/o none other than EMODA. I already splurged a bit when I went to their store in The One HK, so I decided to behave like a good girl, and choose only 1-2 items to get from them...

Recently I’ve been keeping a lot of my older clothes out of my closet because I suddenly couldn’t help looking at them anymore. It’s extremely hard for me to let...

Hiroshima and Miyajima December 2012
As you all know, I went to Fukuoka again last December with my family. This time, we skipped the touring part, shopped til our hearts couldn’t take it anymore, and stuffed ourselves with the best ramen in the world. Well, not exactly. Being history geeks and travelers at heart, we dedicated one day of our trip to Hiroshima and Miyajima. We’ve already been to Nagasaki, so naturally...

Haute Lifestyle: Periwinkle
(Haute Lifestyle dress, EMODA earrings, SM Accessories clutch, SM Parisian heels) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
Last December 19, I attended a wedding with a strict formal dress code. I wore a periwinkle blue dress that must be the most perfect fitting dress that I’ve ever owned in my entire life. I thought my lack of curves was a hopeless case but this dress made me think...

Bayo: Caramel Vanilla Cream
(Bayo top, pants, earrings and belt, Comfit heels, CANMAKE Misty Orange lipstick) Hype this look on Lookbook here. Thanks Kristin for helping me with these pictures.
Wearing yummy, creamy colors for a change, since I’ve been too obsessed with black recently. I am quite guilty for overlooking all the pinks, nudes, browns and whites in my closet since Christmas season started,...

Cheesecake
(Indressme sweater, Chicnova bag, Topshop pants, Zara heels, MURUA necklace) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
What’s the story behind purple and yellow always being used as the color scheme for dessert places? I always found it so fascinating to see these two colors often being paired together, and it’s not like yellow is the first thing I think of when you tell me what color is...

Stars
(Chicwish top, skirt and clutch, Sugarfree Shoes heels, Choies cat/stars tattoo tights) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
Stars on my neck and my legs, and I’m surprised I can still see straight. My metallic fever from the holidays clearly isn’t going away soon, and I even mixed metals *gasp!* for this particular look. I also deliberately put my top on backwards, for the love...

Tory Burch: Dark Denim
(Tory Burch Marlien Leggings in Resin Dark Fade jeans, H&M top, Guess heels, Chicnova bag, Topman hat) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
These pants from the latest Fall 2012 collection of Tory Burch are my perfect fitting jeans to date! So comfortable and I absolutely love the gold details on the side that make it more than just your ordinary pair of jeans. I haven’t worn...

BDJ Box (January 2013)
Finally got another one of these pretty BDJ Boxes, thanks to the lovely ladies behind the very successful Belle de Jour Power Planner! *happy dance* I seriously feel like it’s Christmas every time I receive these in the mail.
Stickers you can give out to your friends <3
I loved the little note that came with it since it made me think about what my beauty resolution for 2013...

Tough Kitty
(Romwe top, Oasap skirt, Choies headband, Moussy bag, EMODA necklace, Trè Kouture wedges) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
It’s the combination of two different things that made me so happy about how this outfit turned out! Spikes and pearls surprisingly work well together, and I think it’s also very descriptive of my personal style (which tends to be rather bipolar). If...

Instagram Photo Dump (October - November 2012)
Sorry for the Instawillgoplaces delay! Anyhow, feast your eyes on plentiful food porn, travel photos and a couple of annoying photos of myself, teehee.
1) Really really really good Mac and Cheese and Truffle Pizza at one of my new favorite places to eat/hang out, Locale Gastrobar in Pasig. NOM.
2) Camwhoring in the dressing room at the Apartment 8 launch with Lissa, Camille, Patricia, Vern...

Tropical Resort Green
(Sheinside jacket, Choies top and shorts, L.CHANCE ring, CMG peeptoe wedges) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
Island fever and the pantone color of 2013. I can already see myself constantly wearing these tropical prints in the next few months, in lieu of the traditional floral prints that I usually don. I just figured that tropical prints, trend or not, will never go out of fashion here...

Woe
(The Orphan’s Arms sweatshirt, EMODA leggings, Moussy bag, Sugarfree heels, Forever 21 necklace) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
Comfortable dressing at its best. I’m feeling quite the opposite of what’s written on my new sweatshirt, but I see it as a good conversation topic for someone like me who fails so bad at small talk and… well, talking to other people in...

Printed Set
(Indressme top, Sheinside jacket and pants, CMG wedges, EGOIST bag) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
Officially my first outfit post for 2013! Clearly I’m trying to start the year off with a more mature look that I’m quite into nowadays. Somehow I’ve been feeling my age recently, and I’ve finally realized that I can’t be all cutesy forever… after 4 years of...

Indonesia November 2012 Part 2
I’m back from Japan! Sorry if I haven’t been updating for the past couple of days. Back to the daily grind after a much needed vacation, and I’m suddenly not feeling my old post-processing style. Took me a while to figure out what to do with these pictures, so I apologize for the tardiness.
On a brighter note, a happy 2013 to all my blog readers! First (celebratory) post of the...
