Nine OOTDs & a Wedding

Hello September~! 

Time for a change of flavour. No more food for today, it's a fashion kinda post! :)

#1

The main thing here are the pair of platform sandals because I've just started wearing platforms lately. I don't know why but I guess in some ways they are much more comfortable to walk in! I actually have about 3-4 pairs of them now! :p
Casual T-shirt Dress: H&M
Platform Sandals (with detachable ribbon clips): Top Town Shop
Bag: Charles & Keith
Necklace: Forever 21

#2

Apart from the very statement-looking dress, that Samantha Vega bag was one of my shopping loots from my Singapore work trip few months bag. Love the colour so so much~!!!
Dress: Dressabelle
Pumps: Payless
Bag: Samantha Vega
Necklace: Forever 21

#3

I'm really trying out some new styles lately. I think it's more like giving casual a unique twist kinda fashion and this is one of them.
Hi-Lo Dress (yes it is a dress): Cotton On
Graphic Tee: Cotton On
Platform Sandals: Top Town Shop
Bag: Samantha Vega
Necklace: Top Shop

#4

Just look at that unique cut around the shoulder area! How not to love that? I knew I have to own this piece even though white isn't something I would normally buy! 
Dress: Dressabelle
Heels: H&M
Bag: Gucci

#5

Another piece that has a very interesting cutting and colour-blocking! :)
Dress: Dressabelle
Heels: H&M
Bag: Gucci

#6

Another new try is wearing orange. I never liked that colour on me but recently it really hits me that it is such a bright colour that could probably make you look younger! I especially love this top that I bought from Dressabelle (by now I think they should hire me to be their ambassador. LOL) that is layered and has a shorter inner piece. Really such a nice twist to the otherwise plain sleeveless top!
Top: Dressabelle
Shorts: MNG
Flats: AEON
Bag: Gucci
Necklace: Most probably Diva

#7

Yup, it's orange again!!! Love this peplum top a lot because its peplum flows longer at the back! 
Peplum Top: MGP Label
Leggings: Forever 21
Sandals: Principle by Debenhams 
Bag: Gucci

#8

Got this LBD from Zara sales and am still so in love with the layered leather top details.
Dress: Zara
Heels: H&M
Bag: Gucci
Necklace: Forever 21

#9

Attended Mei Wei's wedding back in Taiping just two days ago in this lovely and feminine dress!!!
Dress: i-Perfect
Heels: H&M
Envelope Clutch: BCBGMAXAZRIA
Cannot be seen too clearly were a bangle, which was a wedding gift from Mamo and a pair for Forever 21 earrings.

Didn't bother taking photo with the bride with my phone because she was very much behind schedule the whole night so she was still busy drinking with her friends at the end of the night when we left. Got pictures with baby Princeton and the gang though! :)

I cannot resist those big round eyes! I want my future kid(s) to have those kinda eyes too!

Do we look like we have grown old? No wayyyyyy... :p

P/S: Check out my new hair-cut and hair colour! :p

Till then, see you in the next OOTD post! :)

Eight Outfits & a Wedding

This entry is almost useless if you follow me on Instagram... No lah, don't leave the blog, there are still some  details that I didn't post onto my IG! :p

Anyway, here's an entry to showcase the fashionista side of me, which is not entirely fashionista (psst... Mostly no make-up mah, that's why).

#1

You probably need sunglasses for this dress!
I don't know why as I aged I grew to prefer colourful, if not bold and striking colours compared to the dark and insecure days (with clothes' colours lar) when I was younger. Is this even normal? This bright orange and pink dress is definitely one of my favourites in my current wardrobe! :)
Bright colours dress: Dressabelle
Nude pink heels: Payless 

#2

Flare dress is quite a signature-me outfit I must say.
Mint floral dress: Dressabelle
Mint Jelly heels: Jelly Bunny
Pink belt: From Taiwan
Bag: Gucci
Sunglasses: Deardo's Ray Ban

#3

If you know me well, you'll probably know white is not my colour. But I gave in to this dress cos I just love the unique cut at the neckline. Since it's like a corset top it was quite tight but look at the result in picture! It makes me look so slim ME LOVE! :D
White + floral dress: Twenty3
Heels: Zara
Bag: Gucci
Earrings: Diva

#4

Trying out new look too recently. Bought in some lovely coloured pants and this light purple jeans was a great deal at around RM80, during sales period!
Top: H&M
Light purple jeans: Levi's
Heels: Zara
Bag: Gucci

#5

For the love of cute graphic tees, I've also bought in more Cotton On Tees which are so convenient I can just slip into one and pair with a pair of short or skirt whenever I feel lazy! Don't mind having more of these at all!
'Now or Never' graphic tee: Cotton On  
Mint Skirt: Tee Too
Sandal: Twenty3
Bag: Charles & Keith

#6

More on graphic tee cos this Pineapple tee is too cute!!!
Pineapple tee: Cotton On

#7

I know I just said I don't really fancy dark, especially black clothes anymore but when I saw this dress my jaw-dropped... The vintagy floral overlay that is actually transparent makes this dress so classy, vintage yet cool! 
Dress: Twenty3
Heels: Charles & Keith
Bag: Gucci

#8

My black & pink themed outfit for Sue's wedding dinner not too long ago.
The dress is super old but only got to wear it now for the dinner while the bag was a score from H&M sales at only RM39! Who doesn't like cheap deals?
Black dinner dress: Mango
Fuchsia heels: Zara (my wedding shoe)
Fuchsia bag: H&M
Bracelet: Diva
Necklace: Louisa

Here are some snippets from Sue's very interesting Mickey & Minnie themed wedding dinner!

Sue is another firm evidence that wedding is the best motivation to slim down. Look at how slim she is man! The chin already so damn sharper than mine! 

Anyway, congrats once again to the newlyweds! :)

Mostly OOTDs + Some Happenings

If you are following me on Instagram, you should be able to see some of my OOTDs. I don't do it on a daily basis, but whenever I feel like its a fresh coordinate or whenever I'm wearing a new piece, I'll do an OOTD.

So anyway, here are just the few OOTDs I have posted on IG over the past few months...

Wore this really elegant yet sexy dress with sheer details from Dressing Paula to Maggie's wedding and it really looks like I was standing on a red carpet isn't it? :p Clutch from Aldo, heels from Zara, earrings from Forever 21 and necklace from a bazaar.

Maggie's wedding was although a typical Chinese banquet, was quite an interesting one with a Doraemon theme, since she is an avid Daraemon fan.

Giant Poster backdrop and Dorayaki were just some of the highlights at the wedding.

Maggie was my classmates back then at The Voice Academy when we were both taking hosting courses with Karen also in the class. So the wedding was a great opportunity to catch up with our fellow classmates and teacher.

Some photos taken with old friends at the wedding!

Here's the next OOTD...

Got into the hang of long/maxi dresses ever since finding one for our wedding, and this black with gold polka dots maxi from Tee Too was the first casual one to join my wardrobe. Belt was an old one don't know from where, bag from Gucci (ah, Christmas gift from Deardo Wong yo~!) and old wedges from Charles & Keith.

This is me in a long sleeve (which is very rare) ombre effect top from i-Perfect, shorts from Zara and cute pastel purple and white show from Top Town Shoe and Gucci bag, as usual.

Also very rare that I wear long pants but I really couldn't resist this really nice patterned pants from Zara! I wore it with my old Cotton On peplum top, Charles & Keith wedges, Gucci bag and an old necklace.  

I saw this lovely jock-strap back dress in many online shops but I got mine from Kei Mag. It's proven that I recently just have a thing for details at the back! Heels from Zara, necklace from Promod, Gucci bag and an old headband. 

I was at Delicious for a hi-tea with Karen. Bought the Groupon deal to pamper ourselves with a relaxing Sunday hi-tea. Environment at Dua Residence was not bad despite the place looking a bit old but personally think the hi-tea is overrated. We ordered extra stuff though... Boy we must have been very hungry! :p

I called it us acting as 'tai tai' for a day! :p

Okay, enough of food commercial break...

Here I was wearing a really cool and unique dress from F Block with an old belt, Charles & Keith wedges, Gucci Bag and earrings from Forever 21. Check out the details on the dress cos they are the reason I actually bought the dress! 

And my latest addition to my maxi collection is this sweet yellow maxi from Mimosa Closet! Very girly and very Spring! I paired it with my H&M belt, sandals from Principle by Debenhams, Gucci bag and Diva headband. 

And then, I realised I didn't post anything about CNY this year except for our syok-sendiri fashion shoot!
Like it or not, it did feel weird during CNY as someone's wife and daughter-in-law. Reunion dinner with a different group of people with entirely different-looking dishes on the dining table was quite a sad experience but yea I guess a lot of you girls or women out there understand that it's just part of life. In fact we are actually quite lucky because we are from the same hometown! I can't imagine how is it like for couples who come from different parts of the country! :S

A rather quiet and small CNY reunion dinner this year.

I should say I was lucky enough that Deardo was open enough to bring me home for short gatherings with my family almost every night. So I still get to eat some of my favourite home-cooked from Mamo and Ah Ma! :) I was also sleeping with my sisters for about two nights and had great fun laughing to sleep! LOL!!!

Mamo's Red Wine soup is simply unbeatable. Period.

The craziest and funniest thing in this photo of us on bed together was that this photo was taken by our Papo! 

We also gave out Ang Pows for the first time as a married couple. Extra money spent but you know what, I had extra fun giving out Ang Pows! Forcing the kids in my family to say nice wishes to us before getting their red packets was super fun! Hahahaha... Love that session really! :p

Uncle Deardo preparing to give out some red packets!

I don't remember why all these photos came, I think it was totally Deardo's idea..

See, I think everyone had fun at the Ang Pows session! Haha! 

And Lil' Jolie getting her Ang Pow too from 'Au Mou'...

Finally, had our annual CNY gathering this time around at McDonalds just because we wanted to escape the crazy crowd in town! Only 4 of us made it this year and once again I think as the only girl there that day, I owe a lot to Deardo who have given me a lot of freedom during CNY because some other girls were just busy with their in-laws! :)

And we found out we were too old to have good selfie skills... LOL!

So to my dearest Lao Gong, thank you very much! I know we have love each other more since we got married and I hope this will continue to grow stronger! YOU KNOW I LUP YA~! *wink~*

Us during CNY this year! :D

More CNY photos here!

That's all for now, ciao~!
