Tassel Inspired

I've got no favourite colour. It's obvious, picking colours of my choice expresses my feelings of that limited period and they changes again gradually. In my point of view, each and every colour has its own beauty and a story to tell. Why hate a particular colour whereby it is only an instrument of creating more possibilities and feelings through our eyes, to our mind.

Sandals: Topshop

A little sharing

Saw this in one of my mail that looks extraordinary title

Self created meanings

I believe it was written by one of a brother or sister's experience.


I called a nice rock, Jack...it is still just a piece of granite.
I called a beautiful tree, Jill...it is still just a tall tree.
I called this ground under me, Singapore...but it is still just sand and rock...
It is not the word, but the meaning behind the word and what it meaning to my heart. To my heart, Singapore means Home... My home...My Singapore...

Same with all inanimate or created things...
While some meanings are useful, most are meaningless and unnecessary...

I am still trying to understand why my stupid pair of $500 Dunhill shoes means so much to me... I mean...I almost shouted at the guy who split coffee on my shoes... In reality, is still just a piece of cow skin (God bless the cow). Yet it means to much to my heart, I am so proud of this shoe that (I really DO look so nice in it...) I become fearful of damaging, dirtying or loosing this pair of shoes.... I gave Fear power over me by my creating the meaning of this shoe in my heart... Fear now has influence over me in a most sub-conscious & unknowing manner... Jesus said: “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” (Matt 6:11) I created all by my lovely self, so many absolutely meaningless nothings....my heart is now so full...how can God of love fit in...?

So much to say

A little note to thank everyone for all the well wishes on my birthday.

Steps to paint my love

I'm seeing shapes of love in many corners of my room and its fun to paint and spread love around...Look at this wounded earth, bad weather and the mess human beings had created. These all can be overcome by loving things and people around us more-just a little more.

Step 1: You'll need a bucket of colorful love paint

Step 2: A love plan

Step 3: Show your love with actions

Step 4: And more actions

Step 5: A beautiful reminder of painting your love

The end result of painting my love ...

Don't be shy, try it! It works like miracles that will make you smile always.

Chapter. Blue

Vast blue sky, always a gentle reminder of how small am I on the earthly journey. Like the little lamp post that could only shine to a certain distance. Yet I am contented. Inspired by the little way of Saint Therese of Lisieux.

' It was so as not to hear this that I never wanted to grow up, feeling that I was incapable of making my living, the eternal life of heaven. I've always remained little, therefore, having no other occupation but to gather flowers, the flowers of love and sacrifice and offering them to God in order to please Him.'

Lovely explanation.

With this, I would also like to share this

'No one lights a lamp to put it under a tub; they put it on a lamp-stand where it shines for everyone in the house.' (Matt 5:15)

Start A new

Happy Easter to all!

Black vs. white

Bought it. Found it. Snap it.

That bag was actually for my Dino sis a year ago but she happily rejected it saying its too small. I've proved her wrong and she's regretting now for not accepting the little souvenir I got for her during my UK trip last year. Another brand conscious soul- She would rather me getting her all Topshop items. That's the wonders of branding.....

Why black and white photos? It clearly reflects my emotions without me having to fill in more with more words. I'm undergoing a series of temptations and all sorts of not-so-good moments with myself before my new beginning before Easter Sunday. Pray, Pray and Pray for me good souls out there.

Coloursart

Can you figure out what's happening? Those are the artwork done by students at the age of 8 years old. Theme: Wildlife. Couldn't help but to really admire their childlike creativity where they can doodle freely without any restrictions. Sometimes, I wish I could actually have a the ticket to visit their wonderland............

Eye candies

23.03.2011. Another successful Dior Trunk show at St. Regis Hotel. Had a great time behind the scene and look at those accessories for S/S 11! Aren't they pretty? Especially love the clashing colours on the new Dior hand carry. Mini Dior looks fabulous for evening events ......... Not the usual fashion shows where models have to rush like robots to get themselves dressed up.
Time is kind to us that day. Perhaps due to the music used, it helped built a cozy and relaxing ambience where tiny appetizers can take the guests at least 20 minutes to enjoy while the models were sashaying down the stairs and swinging right in front of their eyes. Hmms... What's better? We had our good moments pampering ourselves in the midst of the show too- a nice afternoon tea at the prestigious hotel's French restaurant for an hour before continuing the next show. So, life can be 'colourful' with great accompaniment! More 'colours' to come please!

Sat.urday

Coffee at Marmalade Pantry, Cappuccino and
marmalade carrot cake.Dino Sis had injured her ankle 2 weeks ago and she's
on her way to recovery.

Saturday, yet another busier day for me. So much things to do, errands to run but miraculously I did enjoy each and every moment. Feels like we're all mentality 'alive' only during the weekends. A sad reality though. No, I want my weekdays to be filled with the same kind of liveliness as well! And my exploration starts next week with a whole new perspective.

My kind of Saturday starts with a frantic morning with guilty thoughts of waking up late for an appointment, popping in a tablet of primrose oil and 3 oreos biscuits before dashing out with my new friend, the studded wedge. Its visual therapy again I guess.

Destruction, a new start.

It's been a while now since the lost of my entire facebook and email accounts. Devastating? Nah, more of being irritating. Buh-bye with all my photos from my previous facebook account and Hello to my brand new profile. Seeing things from the positive side always make things easier, that means to say that I've got a new set of friend list. Life's been exciting for me including this- a memorable one at least. There's always give and take, pros and cons in this imperfect world. I don't believe in being a perfectionist. Look at all the flaws in our human life, look at how sinful are we? Always tempted by the evil ones with bad intentions in our minds. To me, being a perfectionist is telling God that he/she want to be equally perfect as God and hence, lord it over yourself. No offense, this is something that I need to reflect about too. I mean everyone wants to be realistic, so in this realistic world, even economy can falter any time. What about us? Mere skeletons on earth?

Prairie girl gone wild

Dress: Vintage lookalike, bought 3 to 4 years ago.
Bag: From Bangkok
Vest: bYSI
Belt: bYSI
Shoe: From Taiwan

Its not about vintage nor looking pretty. All I wanted is to open myself to another dimension where I could discover much more possibilities in terms of the styles of my dressing and my personalities. What else can I say for this S/S 11? It's chaotic. People are trying very hard nowadays to differentiate themselves from one another. That's where you'll have neon colors clashing on one another, prints overlapping and lotsa good old animal prints coming up. Fresh in a way. I'll love to be an unique prairie girl this summer that could better appreciate wild ideas and clashing tones that could possibly bring out a beautiful picture in the end.

Let us not forget about what happened to Japan on 10th March 2011. May our prayers help the afflicted, whom are undergoing a series of great sufferings. -God hears and answers, always- not in our way but His.

Believe it?

Let your imaginations run wild. Believe that they are true and you'll feel better. Seriously. Imagine yourself without imaginations, don't you feel like any other wild animals that only live by their instincts? Once again, I'm taking my thinking cap and a bottle of creative juice to embark on a journey to another wonderland that could help me to generate more hopes, wonders and miracles to feed my weak and vain body.

When the porcupine meets porky

Day outfit to Taipei International Flora Expo. Dino's porcupine oxford from Substance, Sweater from Zara, Dress from Zara, Leggings from Hong Kong Sham shui Po, Hat from Forever 21, Porky oxford from Ximending, Taipei. Bag and scarf, birthday gift.

I can never imagine Dino with that studded oxford! Oh well, since its already a fact.. I have to accept and get her studded porcupine oxford to meet my porky oxford. Wearing porky has a price to pay too- blisters! Nevertheless, it was hinting me to get another pair of shoes after that painful experience with it. No, I won't give up on my porky oxford.

Taipei, ShinKong Mitsukoshi

Shopping hunts- Shirt, flats and leggings
After much haggling with the night markets vendors, these are part of my hunts and I just can't wait to wear them out on the next day.

Good old shades

Brought my old Guess shades with me to the peak of Taiwan's mountain. The chill was nothing compared to the heavy snowfall in Paris last Feb and any other snowy weathers. Weather was perfect for camera players while there were still traces of not-so-fresh snow covering the bottom of the mountain. Finally, managed to dig out my new a year-old thick sweater, just in time for this little getaway. Good thing about getting yourself up high- be able to exercise your conscience and realize how small are you in the world after consuming a huge and generous amount of fresh oxygen that is freely given by creator of the universe. Give thanks and praise.

Feeling vain

Most Women are like.that Even so we are like.that We are all unique beings so stop whining about this fact.

LOOK HERE!

Back from a series of eat.snap.shop from Taipei. Realized I've been missing my humble space for quite sometime. .. So here's our Love Campaign!

Happy Valentine's !

R i s e

Feels like I've just came out after a period of 'hibernation'. Time to get going and be all ready again. Rise and shine! OFF WE GO ~~~

Randomly Mood-less

Random piece of work. Vibrant colours are just not right to fit into my mood board now.
Perhaps PMS is on its way ....

* Knock knock, can I be a Chloe Ballerina Rocker?
