Tights Days

And so... This year I found out that wearing tights is not only more comfy, but warmer than (most) pants!


Coat from Zara, Primark Scarf
On a rare day where I bother to wear a different coat from the usual. And freeze my hands off :/
But for the lazy one in me I think I'll stick to the to-go coat because it's hassle free and I don't even need to wear a scarf! 



Primark Aztec Print Top, Cotton On Crochet Skirt, TB Cardigan

I love the skirt! It's got this super cool crochet-ish pattern...which is not visible unless up close. A nice detail :) 
I was feeling mono-chrome that day and decided to spend some effort dressing up. 


F21 Tribal Print Cutout Back Dress
Another dress I love :) but they should really make XS!


Primark Sweater, TTR Good Girl Flare Skirt in Light Denim

One of the more successful sweaters from Primark! I love the color :D 
Apparently it looks so springy with the skirt, instead of the usual blacks.
But tights are always back...
And in this case the black doesn't match D: But white tights look ugly! What other colours can I wear?


Mango Sweater in Coral, Cotton On Skirt


Zara Basic Sweater, TB Velvet Skirt
Another easy skirt I love!
So affordable too :)
Admittedly it will look nicer with a light coloured top more.


Zara Gingham Shirt, Cotton On Skirt, Firetrap Distressed Boots
Gosh I lost tract of the number of times I wear this skirt now. So easy and fuss free and comfy. And cheap!


H&M Printed Top, Zara Aztec Pattern Leggings, TB Cardigan

Wore this for a black party but I realized it wasn't very fit for the theme! The pants have the subtle pattern like the above mentioned skirt too! 


Zara Basic Shirt in Natural, TB Velvet Skirt


Zara Basic Shirt in Natural, ASOS Pleated Skirt, Zara Boots

Ahh looks so similar to the velvet skirt I realized.
I actually altered this smaller in the waist area in China but I was very fat when I altered it and afterwards it was still too large for me.
Argh :(



Zara Basic Sweater in Navy, Zara Corduroy Pants in Wine, Zara Boots

Actually I returned these boots... :(
As you can see all my outfits are variations of the same items. Talk about working on a limited wardrobe. I'm too lazy to unpack the rest of my sweaters or  wear the rest of my pants but I guess it's time! Christmas is nearly here!!


Primark Embroidery Romper
This was so worth it!! £5 made me happier than the £12 I thought it was!
No, I didn't wear it out in the insane cold.
Ah I actually took this photo a long time ago, I miss the sunshine :(
Now the sun sets before 4.00pm! How miserable D:
I'm gonna get the seasonal depression syndrome.


HVV Cruise Minidress in Navy, Zara Marl Coat
Feeding goats at South Bank centre!
Temperature was so nice then!
Can't wait for springgggg!


TB Floral Bomber Jacket, Zara Basic Navy Dress, Primark Houndstooth Flats

The background. Crazy moving!
I don't want to move house again and live from a luggage.
Well the good is that I do spring cleaning, but it's tiring to be months on the move, moving from place to place, travelling everyday. Need to settle down, like now! Have a comfy nest to rest at night :) Safe from the cold too!
Loved the weather back then :) Late summer/early autumn. Perfect for layering and senseless dressing because you cannot go wrong at 15 deg.

Moving on back to Singapore. Such a OTD spam!!
By the way, the outfits are in reverse order.

Okay just 2, the rest can wait for another day!


LB Livia Tank in Periwinkle, H&M Embroidered Shorts in White, TTR Bimba Straw Bag in Rainbow

I loved this combi that I wore it again from last year!!
And my Bimba Straw bag died after I went hiking... so sad :(
So I bought another one, this time in Spring colour.
But we cannot be reunited until next year D:


Mango Sweater in Cream, Blythe Zoo Floral Print Skirt
Wore this to Malaysia, it was comfy on the plane :D
But it's tiring having to worry about splatters of food on a white/cream sweater!

Okay I should be quite glad I'm working out well with a few wardrobe essentials. Is that less or more reason to shop?

But I cannot wait for SPRING already! Winter is so gloomy. And I wear the same coat out everyday it makes no difference what I wear inside. 

Okay shall end here! Really time to sleep :)

Forget Me Not

More nails of the day photos!
I don't know why I find it harder to grow my nails long now :(

OPI Don't Pretzel My Buttons
Lovely nude for a moot!



Essie Smooth Sailing
One of my favorites! It's really smooth and awesome formula that glides over the names. I love the shade and the shimmer!!


Cirque Ophelia 
Layered over Essie Smooth Sailing.
Ophelia is one of my favorite nail polishes of all time!! I love that periwinkle colour an the mix of glitters of all sizes, makes it perfect for a gradient. Unfortunately I haven't touched it for a long time and it dried up. In an attempt to save it I added in some clear polish - but I think it was probably some top coat so now the nail polish is so gloopy and thick :( boohoo... Should I purchase a new bottle?

Ah I should really wear Essence A Lovely Secret again before it dries up too... Return to my old favorites?




Color Club Wild at Heart
Awesome formula too, holo effect is better in real life! But idk if its my current lighting or the angle I can't capture the holographic effect very well.

Casual and Elegant

Whee!

Here are 2 reviews/outfits with stuff I brought over from Singapore! 


TTR Good Girl Flare Skirt in Light Denim
White Cropped Top from New Look

I love how summery this skirt looks, and I didn't iron it so I think it does crumple a bit >.< it's made of thin denim cloth and fully lined. Overall I think it's pretty versatile!

/


LB Evelyn Maxi in Black XS

<3 this maxi, I wore this for a event and so many of my friends asked where I got it! At $36 it's such a steal too (in UK standards)! Length is perfect for me with heels (I'm 1.59, without heels it touched the floor exactly). It comes with anti-slip and the lattice portion is made of shoe lace strings. Fit is perfect for UK4 :) material is good too! A bit like thin tailored material, not chiffon.

Can't see here, awesome shoes from ASOS (Pilot Platform Heels) and clutch from F21.

And the ASOS Pilot Platform Heels in Multi and B&W!

 Still available: here
 I'm sorry but  B&W is completely out of stock :(

The heels are so comfortable! I took size 3 for Multi and it's perfect for size 36. I took size 4 for B&W because size 3 was a bit tight. They are very stable and the chunky heel is gorgeous. Doesn't feel too tiring as the arch isn't too high! Really worth it imo :) 

And since I'm here, some of the other shoes I have bought over summer till now:

Bershka Metallic Detail Boots
 New Look Maverick Slip On Flat Shoes in Black
I got this around £7 from ASOS, but Black is OOS.
You can get white here!
I love embroidery!

Zara Kids Leather Strap Sandles
It's a little stiff because of the wooden clog base :( 
But other than that it's awesome!

Some sunshine in your life

Yoohoo! 
I have been staying off shopping but not very successful...
Some recent buys :)
TTR Athena Embellished Top in Periwinkle
I have a newfound love for periwinkle!

TTR Athena Embellished Top in White
How can I resist this? 
I can't even decide which colour, I know white will be perfect for my Dome Maxi, but the periwinkle is too pretty to miss!

TTR Keep it Basic Cropped Top in Wisteria
Got this before I left, I don't remember much but thankful for the smaller PTP!

TTR Good Girl Flare Skirt in Light Denim
Another cutsey skirt with pockets! Have worn it a few times in London but doesn't seem to suit the weather now :(

TTR Long Island Boho Dress in Off White
I love the boho feel and off shoulders, how can I resist this?
Hopefully it'll be perfect for summer when I see it next year!

TTR Azure Lasercut Top in White
Oh this is so similar to the Athena top above but... I fail.
The material is quite cotton-ish though!

TTR Dome Maxi Skirt in Lilac
Hope I buck up the courage to wear it in spring!!

TTR Good Girl Flare Skirt in White
Finally got the white skirt I've been looking for!
I wore this with the LRH velvet top in forest green and the colour sort of transferred over. Nonetheless hope to wear it again soon!

LB Evelyn Maxi in Black
Oh you gorgeous dress.
I wore this for an event and it was perfect. No need for accessories. Perfect length and PTP.
The material and cut is awesome as well. Well worth my $38!

TVD Talia Eyelet Cutout Romper in White
This one is a little short and the lining is shorter and reveals butt cheeks. Hmm gotta be careful when wearing.
Workmanship is off par and not aligned despite looking through several pieces when I went to exchange it.

Some Colours

Admittedly I have been ignoring my blog...
Here are some NOTDs :)

Pretty and Polished Pool Party
Love the shade of blue, so summery! Although it's kind of unsuitable for the gloomy weather now.
KBShimmer Oh Splat!
I didn't go as crazy over this as I thought I would, but then my craze for nail polish is kinda over now.
OPI Yoga-ta get this Blue!
I wanted to get this all time, and here is it worn, after having it with me for so long! 
Classic blue with shimmer.

I don't really paint my nails as often now, I don't really know what I've been doing, I've been really busy with loads of things. 
This means less spending hopefully? :)
