I haven't been wearing heels for a while since I met my current boyfriend (due to the small difference in our height). But that's great cos it gives my feet plenty of rest, especially since I have a high arch. Lots of girls opt for heels because it gives a slimmer look and it projects more authority at work, but I'm someone who dresses practically. Flats are the way to go, and here are some flats that can replace those ankle breaking heels. For work:   For casual dates:     For an outdoor trip   There are...

I've taken alot of interest in brush lettering and typography recently and I recent bought this brush pen to develop this hobby. It was only after my purchase, that I realised a whole plethora of pens exists for this craft: Well, too late to regret my purchase. And to be honest, I have no idea which is the best pen/brush to start with and whether I made the right choice. But this brush from Art Friend cost me almost $8, so I better put it to good use.  I've been scribbling as and when I'm bored/free and it...

The past week has been a nightmare in terms of the amount of schoolwork and preparation (or lack thereof) for chinese new year. This year, I did not 1. buy new clothes, 2. Hang decorations, 3. Help to prepare the angbaos/ touch fresh crisp notes, 4. go to chinatown, 5. feel festive. I could not eat nor sleep well until I finished my work. This is by far, my toughest semester in school. No joke. But regardless, I still found time to let off steam with these: 1. Tsubasa Chronicles - I finish 200+ chapters in a week....

1. I'm so into this bag! It's available on taobao here. There are many more designs but if I have to pick, this would be it. 2. I stumbled onto this when I was feeling hungry in class and I can't wait to try the peanut butter and banana one :-p 3. I saw this article on brit.co and actually reinstalled snapchat for this, and I have been enjoying the news updates. This is going to be such a game changer in the social media market! 4. This week, I came to terms with embarking on my student...

I had the sudden urge to revisit tavi gevison's blog having forgotten about it for years. I was a fan of her growing up as a teen and I thought her sense of fashion was really cool and unreal. It's pretty amazing how she's now in a broadway show, but it really sucked when I realised she had only had 2 new blog posts since the last time i visited.But I found this video of a talk she gave and it sort of revived the creative and free spirited child in me, that I must have left behind when...
