Finally had some time to brunch with sis and friends.

Went to try out Pique Nique 2 weeks ago with sis first.
Actually I wanted to try out Epicurious but she said Pique Nique is closer to malls and more accessible.
Anyway Pique Nique is located inside Ngee Ann City.

Outfit of the day:
Top - TheClosetLover
Bottom - ModParade



Hot Latte -


I had the Norwegian Benedict because I love salmons.
This is smoked salmon though >.>
Quite a generous amount of salmon is given.
The serving may look small. 
However somehow at the end of this meal, my sis and my tummy burst lol.
Maybe we ate slow? or is it because of the eggs which made us full? :O


 Below is the Classic benedict which my sis ordered.
After trying one bite, honestly I think I can even make this myself.
Tasted pretty average.
A little bland.


Below is part of my Norwegian benedict hahaa.
Look at my salmon and the egg yolk flowing down.
A little gross though :x
Remember to have the salmon together with the egg and english muffin else it's too salty. 



Next up is my brunch date with my poly best buddies.
Been a long time since our last catch up!
We went to try brunch at Blackbird cafe.
I love this place alot.
Accessible, cozy, pretty, & yummy food.
It's not hard to find the place at all.
We reached there at around 11.30am and stayed till 2.30pm.
There were barely customers around in the afternoon so we just chat and slack around.


My friend's - Pancakes with bananas.
Super full.

My Eggs benny. Can't resist trying their Eggs benedict after reading the online reviews. 
Some people dislike the sauce, saying it is sour & taste weird. 
This kinda intrigue me, must try the sauce, why, does it really taste weird? lol.
I tried it and it's good. No weird taste hmm, personal preference I guess.
I have a weird tastebud, I like to eat and try all kind of food from all over the world except INSECTS. lol (u know some ppl when they travel overseas, they tried those fried insects etc like omg?!)
I would pick this over Pique-Nique's classic benny.

 My friend's blackbird big breakkie.
Super big serving and full.
I love the scramble eggs.

After brunch, went shopping with friends. 
Checked out H&M.
Bought a good deal - blazer which originally cost $60, it's selling at sale price of $20 only, must buy.
 Also shopped at Forever21. 
wahhh shopping is neverending.
At night we decided to spend some time at MBS.
Never been there before. My first time. I know I'm slow. Lol.
Totally like a tourist there. Got fascinated by almost everything.
Can't wait to travel soon and be a real tourist lol.









 MBS is like totally pretty! 
I wanted to stay one night in MBS man lol.








Today is my last day of holiday break. Gonna resume work again tomorrow. Sigh.
Enjoyed my precious 5 days short break since last friday.
Last friday went for my dental consultation + xray and had a sleepover at my bf's place till sat night.
Sunday BBQ. Monday sleep at home and rest all I can for the week.
IT's ALL SET!! THE DATE FOR MY DENTAL SURGERY - 10/10/2012 at 10.30am!
Omg Dam worried, scared and nervous.
I still can't make this freaking decision -
I have confirmed the extractions - 4 wisdom teeth and 2 damaged second molar on each side, total 6 teeth.

Now, if I want to go for braces, I need to extract 4 more - 2 top 2 bottom front teeth + 1 additional hidden inside gum by surgery, total of 5 teeth.

So in total - 11 teeth. OMG anyone removed that many at 1 go????!!!
I might bleed to death................ lolol....................................................................





Been awhile since I last updated!
So many things to post but no time to update (excuses and excuses much lol)
Gotta be more hard-working in publishing the posts!
The pictures are all rotting in my laptop ops.

One more thing. - if I didn't reply your email or reply halfway & disappear, do send another reminder email etc cos sometime I read emails anywhere/anytime like in office or on mobile but didn't reply until I reach home at night when I'm on my personal laptop. Sometimes I overlooked those "read" emails and forgot to reply =x

Wassup people!

Some overdue pics from the day of the Suntec ST Classifieds Fashion & IT Showcase 2012.
Went to Suntec's Food Republic for dinner.
Had chicken murtabak - Which is very average only and the Hokkien mee - so marvelous.
Somehow the hokkien mee taste very yummy to me or is it that I'm too hungry hahaa.



We laughed at the picture & lol @ the eyeballs.





Below is one of my favourite loot from the event - OhVola's Scarlet Embellished Top in black (S)
Super love this top. 
You can save on your accessories because of the silver embellishments on the top.
Casual yet dressy depends on how you pair it.
Throw it over a pair of jeans and go.
Fully lined and not sheer at all.
No zip.



Some loots I tried at KissJane few days ago.
Below is the AmberAvenue's Avian Flirt Skirt in Aztec (S)
Been eyeing it online for sometime but because I'm trying to cut down my expenses I didn't get it.
Saw it at kissjane and decided to try the fit first. 
Here is the verdict!
Fits great with slight allowance, will be loose for a uk4.
Fully lined and not sheer at all.
Comes with zip for easy wearing.
Not stretchable/no elastic band.
The only thing which made me glad that I didn't buy this skirt online is... after trying the skirt, I felt the skirt is kind of 'pong', emphasize the hips :(




Next item I've also tried is Megagamie's Aztec Printed Hi-Low Tank dress in Green (S)
Wahh I don't know why the cutting of all their fishtail dresses (including Venice Asymmetrical dress) are so big even for Size S.
Yet it looks so perfect on their model who is also a UK 6.
I looked like I'm drowning in the dress X.X
It's really ill-fitting.
Super big arm hole...straps too long?
PTP also big.
Belt also not enough holes. 
ahhh.
But anyway the dress is pretty.
Fully lined and not sheer at all.
No zip.




One of my OTDs:
Top - Hollyhoque's Scoop back crop top in Heather grey
Bottom - Megagamie's I'm so pleaty skirt in Rose (S)

Reviewed the top before.
The megagamie's skirt in rose was launched quite sometime back. Recently they relaunched it in new colours!



Review - Scallop Tie Front Shirt in light wash (S)
Love the versatility of this top.
Wear it fully buttoned and tied-bottom or wear it fully unbutton with inner tube and tied-bottom.
Not sheer at all.
Front is made up of full functional buttons.
Fits great.



Review - HerVelvetVase's Maxine Silkesque Cardigan in aqua 
It was on sale price and so cheap. 
I was attracted to the aqua colour in their site. Looks so refreshing.
However I felt deceived after receiving it as the aqua colour is dull in real life :(
If only it looks more like the website's fresh aquatic - seagreen tone.
Meant to be worn as a outerwear.





OTD:
Top - HerVelvetVase - Neon Nitro Basic Pad top in white (I reviewed before & removed the shoulder pads)
Bottom - LoveBonito - Caesar Tweed Skirt (S) - Also reviewed before.
For this skirt, fits uk 6 to a small uk 8 max.
highly recommended but it's not suited for the taller girls.



Review - AmberAvenue's Addison Crop Top in White (S)
Love crop tops and this white piece make a good and essential basic.
No zip.
Fits great with some allowance but it will probably fits up to a uk 8 max as it is not stretchable.
Not sheer when I wore a nude undergarment.
Fully lined.





Review - TheClosetLover - Stud Peplum Top in Cobalt Blue
Super love this top so unique and chic hahaa.
The shoulders are made up of studs so definitely cannot carry shoulder bags =P
Shoulders are also lightly padded.
The peplum design is quite subtle.
Not lined but not sheer.
No zip.
Fits great.




Another one of my OTDs.
In HerVelvetVase's Jive denim bustier - Black florals (S).
PTP is loose on me so definitely not recommended for ladies below uk 6.
Gotta alter the straps to make it shorter too as it keeps falling over my shoulders.

And yes I finally went to cut my hair. 
So much hair, the hairdresser commented. Lol.
Actually I'm thinking of trying bob....hahaa.
