From Bali With Love


I love bright floral prints and jumpsuits despite how inconvenient they are.
I recently went on a short vacation to Bali for my cousin's wedding. I was in my perfect vacay mode and sooner than I wanted it to, it ended and it's back to real time.

Braided


I'm in love with braids this little while. Simple, pretty, girly, and practical.. keeps the hair out of my face in this humid weather. Speaking of which, weather's been extremely crappy lately. Stay dry and happy!

Nostalgia



Hello World! I've missed y'all... I'm currently experiencing blogging nostalgia - a serious condition that occurs when I browse through blogs and come to a sudden realization that I haven't blogged in... uh, 1, 2, 3 months. During my absence I have gone on many exciting adventures that I have yet to share. For now, here are a few random shots from my Cheung Chau excusion with my ladies last week. Just living life, chowing down delicious seafood and popsicles. 
Anyhoo, I'm back, and I promise I'll try harder.

cut out

(planet blue dress, club monaco belt, aldo wedges, marc jacob sac)

I sincerely apologize for my lack of activity. I am currently working 7 days a week and on top of that, doing part-time school. Sometimes I get this shoot-me-in-the-head feeling. Don't get me wrong, I love everything I'm doing.  I feel like such a useful human being, making full use of my time and all, literally. But hey, at least I'm a step closer to achieving my dream :)
Wish me luck babes. I kinda really need it right now...

Been a super busy week, deadlines, exams, work... on top of everything else, I fractured my wrist!! EKKKK... I know what you're probably thinking, "Is this girl made out of glass??" Indeed, sometimes I question myself... why the freak am I so fragile?!?!? Anyhoo, I leave you with a couple pictures from a night I went out last week, when, once-upon-a-time,  my wrist was still intact... 
Hope you guys are having a better week than mine!

'cause no act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted

I've been meaning to post about this event, and this is the perfect time to let you guys know about this charity fashion show at my university, the University of Western Ontario in a small city in Ontario, Canada, called London. So ladies and gents, may I present to you CAISA Fashion Show 2011, Allure!

CAISA Fashion Show is a student run charity fashion show that raises money for a local charity every year. This year, all the proceeds are going to the Palliative Care Program at the Children's Health Foundation in London. Every year the Fashion Show attracts over 3000 audience from all across Ontario. The Fashion Show is a huge production that brings fashion to the general public via runways and dance numbers. The best part is, they raise money to support a good cause! And here's where YOU come in!

The CAISA Fashion Show is one of the top finalist for the Blackberry/Campus Perks "the best life" contest. If they are chosen to be the winner, they can raise CAD$4000 towards their charity.  CAISA's goal is to "spread happiness". They are graded depending on how many tweets, likes, facebook mentions, etc. You can help Children's Health Foundation raise $4000 by just clicking like on facebook or tweeting about the event via the blackberry campus perks website: click HERE.

sands and stones

This weekend I got to spend time with some long lost friends; have amazing dinner at Al Pasha and watch belly dances; laugh at stand up comedian's rated r jokes; and ultimately after all the fun, came down with a fever... I hate the flu season, and above all, my weak immune system really. 
I was wearing Moussy hat; Moussy jumper; American Apparel leggings; All Saints boots; bag from random boutique in Causeway Bay

Hope your weekend is filled with laughter and love ♥

A woman who doesn't wear perfume has no future.

Top - American Apparel
Skirt - Asos
 Boots - Nine West

My cold is finally getting better from all the love you left me in the previous post. So thank you lovers!!

Hello Kitty <3

I went to tea at Sevva with a childhood friend, and had a delightful time. Nothing beats some delicious sandwiches and cakes and a cup of earl grey.
 I knew this girl before I could walk and talk...



My current read... If I could be anyone for a day, I'd be her. She's a legend, and I am a fan.

"Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening." - Coco Chanel.
