Fashion Inspiration: The Colour of Night
posted by
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.

Travelogue [New York City]: Life in stillness
posted by
Featured, Personal, Style Inspiration


Harsh winter days are spent burrowing myself in the sheets with the laptop to keep the tummy warm. There was also a revelation that radiators are good surfaces for taking photos as illustrated by the Gareth Pugh x MAC post.

Besides makeup, I ended up taking photos of the shoes I brought along for the trip and some photos of bags, jackets and accessories.

Seems like the shoes were arranged in order of comfort. I kid, the dsquared reps are actually more comfortable than the Theyskens Theory reps.

My buttery soft lambskin bag is one of the lightest bags I own, it’s useful cause I tend to bring too much stuff out and despite that, it won’t give me much of a shoulder ache. I’ve had bags that are heavy on its own and I tend not to bring them out too often.

A clear favorite, my Datya leather jacket from All Saints. Kept me warm for a few winters now.

This H&M jacket is also one of my favorite to wear. It’s so smart-looking and I’m glad I got Dawn to buy it for me in London.

Pretty glad it was a productive day despite choosing to stay in.

Lust list: Don’t sweat it.
posted by
Personal, Style Inspiration


Happy December everyone!

Every now and then I go into a phase. I had a multi-chain necklace phase, a sunglasses phase, a leather trimming phase, draped jacket phase, chiffon maxi skirt phase… well, you get the point.

Right now, I’m in a sweater phase. There’s nothing like a warm snuggly sweater to feel comfortable during the cold harsh winter. I’d layer it over a pair of leather shorts for warmer winters and probably a long midi skirt paired with ankle boots for a slightly more dressy look.

Lust List: Winter Palette
posted by
Fashion Review, Personal, Style Inspiration


Winter is upon us and it’s finally time to layer up and keep warm. Leather trimming and accents make for a good texture contrast when layering up in an all black outfit. Madly in love with the Jil Sander bag, I’ve been looking all over for a spacious and minimalist looking one.

Recent Purchases: Gareth Pugh x MAC collection
posted by
Featured, Personal, Style Inspiration


Happy Thanksgiving everyone!! Right here in Singapore we don’t celebrate Thanksgiving but any reason for a good meal is a cause for celebration.

The Gareth Pugh x MAC collection  was released on 23 November in USA. Guess who went ahead and bought too much makeup?

Prior to being at the store I only had intentions on getting the makeup pouch cause it looks spacious enough for my makeup. Upon reaching the store, I was sold on how awesome the packaging looks and how beautiful some of the colours are.

The iridescence of the nail polishes got me really excited. Pictured here are Hyper and Ascension.

I am a HUGE fan of nude lipsticks, I never really believed I’d look good in any other colours but the purple lipstick (featured in the print) is too gorgeous to pass up. Purple and plum are very “Fall” colours and who knows, I might try and pull it off somehow.

Pictured here are the colours Restrict and Fervent.

I also got the pigments in Guise. The rest of the eyeshadow colours weren’t fully released yet for some reason and the blush wasn’t really suited for my skintone.

And here’s the pouch that got me waking up at 8am in the morning to go to the MAC store. Apparently, I wasn’t the first one who got there. This pouch was the last piece they had in the store. >:3

For those interested, this is how it looks like inside. The pouch features handy slots for your brushes and a compartment for all the makeup. I don’t have a measuring tape but I’d estimate it to be about 17-20cm?

The zipper pull is awesomely detailed.

The collection will be out in Singapore in December exclusively at Tangs. I hope those interested will be able to get their hands on it.
