I have been as productive as Arissa has been unproductive – all in the name of procrastinating writing my essay for as long as possible. I am kind of dreading going back to London – how did time pass so fast anyway?! It feels like I have just been bumming around doing nothing, and suddenly I have to finish an essay and pack for school. I haven’t even eaten enough chicken rice yet.

Went out for brunch at Wild Honey with Fatiha of Heels & Wedges yesterday (thank you so much for the pictures! <3). I had left the bulk of my clothes behind in London so my outfits lean towards the basic. I’m happy to be wearing tall shoes again, though!

Outfit breakdown:

  • Blouse: H&M

Fashion Inspiration: The Colour of Night

Style Inspiration


It has been a while since we have featured editorials on this blog, but once in a while we stumble upon one that just sweeps us off our feet. I came across an editorial aptly named The Color of Night while doing my usual rounds on the Internet and I just loved every single look. Not surprisingly, it’s styled by the flawless fashion goddess Kate Lanphear.

More pictures available on Elle.com. I’ve never really paid much attention at all before to Emporio Armani, but these pictures have definitely put the label on my radar.

I hope it’s not terribly gauche of me to post pictures of gifts I’ve received over the holiday season, but they are just too pretty not to photograph!! I don’t celebrate Christmas, so these are actually early birthday gifts from my friends and family ♥.

I have no idea that it was customary to give jewellery for someone’s 21st! I am absolutely in love with the Tiffany necklace Arissa got me. Thanks so much bb!! ;__;

My other friends got me the Agnès B. key and ribbon necklace. You might have noticed that I have worn it for a while already, because I received it before I left for school! The ring is a gift from my mom, and it’s just really great that every jewellery I wear now has a story behind them. :)

With the Bvlgari perfume I bought for myself as a Christmas gift…Honestly, I am just finding whatever excuses I can to buy stuff. I’m terrible.

I’m finally back in Singapore! It feels amazing to relax and do absolutely nothing after a mad rush to meet submission deadlines. Regardless, here’s a big happy Holidays to everyone! :) I did not bring much back with me seeing that I will be returning to school in a couple weeks’ time. I was really supposed to be saving space in my luggage for food, but I can’t help but indulge in a little retail therapy!

I bought these Zara leather and suede wedges in London – I did a price comparison with some of their items recently, and the markup in Singapore is really ridiculous.

Envelope clutch from Far East Plaza. So very late to the trend, but I foresee that it will come in useful when I run out for a short lesson or a quick meal. It’s the perfect size for storing an iPad as well.

How is everyone celebrating this festive season? I will probably be holed up writing an essay, but here’s to hoping that you have something much more interesting lined up.

The girls of Pixiekrane are over in London for a trip, and I took the opportunity to shamelessly invite myself to hang out with them one afternoon. If you are reading this: Thanks for putting up with me, and for the lovely pictures!

We met up in Holborn for lunch. I really like the area for some reason – you can easily head from there to soho for food, or to St. Paul’s for shopping. I much prefer this to the crush that is Oxford street 90% of the time.

The weather’s really starting to bite as we slowly edge out of autumn and into winter… Arissa gave me this cape when we met up in Paris, and I can’t stop wearing it! <3 It’s definitely not warm enough on its own, but it’s perfect when thrown over a leather jacket. Speaking of which, I’ve taken to abusing layering my clothes – I remember distinctly how my friend compared me to a cabbage when I was taking off my coat(s) indoors.

I like how unapologetically clunky these boots look. They are also really wide at the base, and remind me of hooves sometimes. Ultimate man-repeller boots.

Outfit breakdown:

  • Cape: m)phosis
  • Leather jacket (worn inside): All Saints
  • Cardigan (worn inside): All Saints
  • Skirt: m)phosis
  • Boots: Ann Demeulemeester
  • Accessories: Alexander McQueen

P.S. I will briefly be home in Singapore around mid December! I can’t wait to inhale all the food I’ve been craving since moving here. Chicken rice and nasi lemak! And 24hr McDelivery!
