Dinner at 8

There were lots of travelling for us over the weekend for a cousin's wedding!

Weddings are lovely, but when it comes to searching for something to wear, it's ridiculously tedious! Does anyone of you share my sentiment? My closet is bursting at the seams, but yet it's never enough.

Alwin and I travelled up north out-of-state on Friday night for the Chinese wedding tea ceremony which took place early yesterday morning, before coming back the same day for the wedding reception.

I finally decided on this lace peplum dress for the reception at Mutiara Palace Restaurant near Ikea. This is my second time wearing this dress (the first was also to another wedding), but the first time I'm blogging about it.

Enjoy the rest of the day :)

Burberry AW13 Livestream Menswear Show in Milan

I've always got a thing for men in dashing suits. There's something about a well-cut suit that can spruce up the most unkempt appearance. And also the androgynous look - it's oh so sexy. Note to self: Go shop for a satin tuxedo jacket and a white shirt after this.

Here's an idea: Perhaps you may want to tune in to the Burberry Autumn Winter 2013 Livestream Menswear show direct from Milan for some runway inspirations. The countdown begins today and it's going live on 12 January at 11.30pm local time right here for your viewing pleasure! :) Enjoy!

Shiny New Outfits

It's always essential to start the New Year with a bang, style-wise, so it's time to raid the closets or hit the mall! Three very important elements for me, at least for the first quarter of the year are Sparkles, Lace and an Overload of Colours.

Sparkles:
Contrary to popular belief, sequins are not all-about night time parties :)



#1 Cupcakes and Cashmere / #2 The Lovelee Girl / #3 Adorn London

 

Lace:



Always artsy, never trashy

I love Zooey Deschanel's style, by the way

 

 

#4 What Would Zooey Deschanel Wear? / #5 AM PM Style / #6 Twirly Skirts

                                                                                                                                    

Rainbow Colours:

Better than the Little Black Dress are candy-coloured outfits inspired by the rainbow!
