More Black & White (+ A Little Denim)

It was like me embracing the spirit of Beetlejuice, sartorially...
Following the appearance of my Beetlejuice tee and my sudden, surprising newfound love of black and white in Tokyo was this black and white wraparound top that I bought just before coming to Tokyo.
I was perusing through Cotton On&…

Tokyo, I Miss You Already

I've been to Tokyo three times in the past seven months but saying my byes this time was the hardest. Perhaps, because Tokyo already felt like another home to me... 
I've arrived safely to Kuala Lumpur yesterday. Can't really believe I'm back home, actually. I woke up this morning …

Black & White

My eyes tend to stray to bright colours when I'm out shopping so I've got to say, something is in the spring-summer water here in Tokyo because everything that I've added to my closet is either black or white. A bit of a puzzler, really...

In my welcome-myself-to-Tokyo post I talked ab…

Revlon 9 Super Lustrous Lip Cube


It's always fun to have new lipsticks to experiment with, but with new Revlon Super Lustrous ones? As a big fan of the Super Lustrous range (scroll down to bottom of post for proofs), even more fun for me! I took the opportunity to get this cute cube consisting of nine lipstick shades in-flight to Tokyo last week.

The Men's White Shirt

Why steal fromhis closet when you can just shop from there?
I've been looking for a slightly oversized white shirt for a while but apparently I've been looking in the wrong places—or should I say the wrong department?
I went shopping with Shah for his office shirts and what do you know, t…

Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice!

I felt like this t-shirt was just waiting for me to go to Tokyo to make an appearance...
If you didn't know it, I'm a big fan of Tim Burton's films, and I EVEN GOT TO MEET HIM, how amazingly cool is that?? I grew up watching Tim Burton's movies—Shah has said before that that is the…

From PJ to Tokyo: 3rd Time

Pretty ecstatic, because I'm back in Tokyo, guys!

The last time I was here was when it was still winter-cold; it was one of the warmer days when I took this photo in Asakusa in mid-March, but I still felt the need for my winter jacket. Honestly speaking, I thought I wouldn't get to come ba…

Lazy Morning After

And by 'morning after' I mean the morning after the fun-filled day of jumpsuiting while horse riding and a half-day at the beach.
The weather has been bleak these past few days in my hometown—really different from the beautiful weather my family and I experienced in Port Dickson the other …

Jumpsuiting (and Horse Riding!)

With my curvy hips (and, well, a generous booty), I've always find it hard to find the perfect-fitting jumpsuit. Then I found this jumpsuit, which looks like a two-piece outfit, from H&M and the warm colours and the patterns on it just got me hooked.
My family and I recently went on a litt…

Lips, High Heel & Palazzo

There are some days when I feel like REALLY not wearing my contact lens, which usually means not even a stitch of makeup will be applied as well, but at the same time I don't want to walk out the door knowing I don't look as best as my lazy-self can possibly look. So, what I'd usually …

Boyfriend Jeans - or Husband Jeans, Actually

I've "stolen" t-shirts, shirts and outerwears from Shah's closet but I never thought to take a closer look at his jeans collection—that is, until that one day when my go-to straight blue jeans suddenly seemed all wrong on me, and I had about 5 minutes before I just had to go get …
