Fancy a hat!


As many of my friends know I love accessories and I had a phase where all I did was buy hats. But ever since the Royal Wedding and seeing all the amazing fascinators and headpieces. Wouldn't it just be a grand idea to have that as a requirement for your wedding? And then... I stumbled upon Bijou Van Ness (via the Wedding Chicks) and I fell in love. I am more determine than ever to attend a wedding with a headpiece requirement. What do you think about the fascinators?

I am officially a Minkette.



So I was first introduced to Rebecca Minkoff last summer, when S decided to sell the Nikki Mustard Croc because she had that same colour in another style! Then came Christmas, I bought my 'Je t'aime' black pouch then S gave me a "Un, deux, trois" purple pouch for Christmas! Then just a couple of months ago... I got my 4th RM: the Mini Black MAC with the gold hardware. I completely adore it. Now contemplating... on what my next RM buy will be. Been eyeing on the MAM - just waiting for the right colour to entice me.

I'll be getting something next year since I was very good during the Black Friday weekend. What did you splurge on during Black Friday?

Cozy.


How cute is this sweater dress from the H&M Holiday Collection? Just pair it with leggings and knee-high boots and you are good to go for a chillin' night with friends.

Move over Winter. Hello H&M Spring!




With such mild temperatures in the past month... it's hard not to overlook winter and say hello to spring. This is why when I stumbled upon the Spring 2012 line-up from H&M - it made me smile! I absolutely, positively love love love it. I especially love the bright colours along with the mod look that is much adored from the 60's. These were some of my favourite pieces. Eeeps. I'm excited.

Stylin' Sounds.





Fashion takes over audio. Isn't the Juicy Couture perfect for a winter day to listen to your music without freezing your ears? But I prefer the simple headphones from Marc Jacobs with just having the signature Miss Marc character on the front. Do you like these out-of-the-box fashion headphones or are you more of the traditional type?

DIY: Elastic Headband



I've been in such a DIY mood... it's been crazy. So after a trip to the local fabric store I finally sewed a couple of headbands from the trim I bought. After a failed first attempt... I got my sewing mojo and successfully sewed 4 sets of headbands. I'm still on a hunt for the sequence lace trim. So I can make some more. I styled my hair with the short chignon hair that the Beauty Department showed. It's a very bohemian look that I much adore. Now get your sewing kit ready and sew away.

Button it up.



I've been feeling quite crafty recently and with winter upon us I decided to change the buttons of my black winter coat. I opted for a change with these distressed silver button with the coat of arms. I say it turned out great. Totally a good way to give your clothing a refresh especially if you are on a low budget!

Shoes Obsessed.


I don't know how this actually happened... but I have become shoes obsessed. You can say it occurred during my whirlwind trip to Asia. I just couldn't stop buying shoes after shoes... after 6months away... I came back to with 10 new pairs ranging from heels to wedges to flats to sandals. Now with my parents in Asia... it's time to stock up with a new collection. Re-introducing myself with the Asia brands... my cousin mentions to me that the Singaporean shoe brand, Pedro has opened a store in Manila. So I quickly went on to browse their online catalogue. J'adore.

Leopard love.


I was never really fan of leopard print but when I saw this leopard beret from Bicyclette Boutique! I just had to get it! Today I paired it with my Joe Fresh tied-up white blouse & trench coat!
