Arab Street


Well, I was supposed to post this entry last Tuesday but somehow I forgot about it, but anyway here it is! 

It was just a random afternoon walk right after we had our daily dose of coffee and before our super late lunch. And as you might have seen on my instagram, I finally went to the newly opened Arabica Coffee in Singapore as I had been craving for their coffee ever since my last Hongkong trip, which was last year I believe. It was so good that I can’t wait to be back again tomorrow. 





What I wore: Duma dress that I altered, Eesome X CK dress shirt as an outer, Kenzo Tali bag and shoes are Christian Louboutin’s Xiloboot.

GUCCI S/S 2018 Asia Press Day


It was just last month I got invited to Gucci SS18 Asia Press Day at Timbre at Arts House in Singapore together with Harper's Bazaar Indonesia, discovering their latest Spring Summer 2018 Collection which was showcased during Milan Fashion Week back in September 2017.
It was full of glitter, glam and it's all about letting us travel back to the 80s thus the vibrant colors, serious shoulder pads, crazy patterns, oversized blazers, sequins, ruffles and everything daring.
You know, it's GUCCI playground after all.
From recreating the iconic Elton John's stage outfits, a throwback nostalgia of Disney and Sega to collaborating with contemporary artists that Michele found through social media, he made sure that there is something (to wear) for everybody. It's about celebrating a diverse mix of cultures.

"Go into the store and you don't just recognise the season - you recognise the world. I want to stay here and grow beyond seasonal change."




For your spirit will live forever.




One of the piece that caught my eyes, a comfortable jumper with "NEVER MARRY A MITFORD" slogan. It used to be an upper-class in-joke from the past, from a habit of the 11th Duke of Devonshire of making 'comedy' jumpers back in the day.

"The title is taken from a sweater that Andrew Cavendish, 11th Duke of Devonshire used to wear around his Chatsworth estate in Derbyshire."

















One of my favorite, the GUCCI X SEGA Gucci Sega bag.

Staying at Lloyd's Inn


So, last month we had a very short getaway to The Lion City and yet we had the most wonderful time rewinding from our busy schedule and of course we got the perfect hotel to stay. Situated just 6 mins away (walking distance) from Somerset 313, Lloyd's Inn is definitely in one of our top hotel list.

Talking about the room, we happened to be lucky because we managed to book their very nice 'Big Skyroom' for two nights! Not only it is spacious, everything else is clean and really instagramable in my case. Well, I guess you might have noticed just how many outfit pictures I took during our stay judging from my instagram account or from these pictures below. I am so in love with their simple and minimalist interiors.

To sum it all, it was such a pleasant experience for hubby and I staying at Lloyd's Inn. Thank you for the great hospitality and awesome service! We will be coming back again next time for sure ;)

Resorts World Sentosa

So we got invited to explore Resorts World Sentosa in Singapore a few weeks ago and yes, this very entry is all about it. I hope you enjoy reading and scrolling!



First thing first, we were stayng at the colorful Festive Hotel which of course has a fun vibe and definitely one of families favorite. And how cute is our deluxe room? ;)



After we checked in and put our stuff inside the hotel's room, we were guided to have lunch at Forest Restaurant by Resorts World Sentosa and Celebrity Chef Sam Leong which serves tasty contemporary Chinese cuisine; very fine indeed.

Norway Salmon Fillet
sous vide and served with green curry sauce


Australian Beef Tenderloin Cubes
wok-fried with onion, bell pepper and garlic in black pepper sauce, accompanied with pan-seared foie gras in yuzu soy sauce


Right after lunch, we went straight to Universal Studios to have some fun ;)



This was actually my 5th visit to Universal Studios (I used to live in Singapore, remember?) and I still couldn't get enough of it. Not to mention that they've just opened a new ride of "Puss in Boots Giant Journey" (a really slow coaster and safe for all ages) and finally reopened the scary ride of "Battlestar Galactica: Human VS Cyclon"!! I once tried the cyclon ride a few years back, it was super thrilling (and scary for me).








Last but not least, we also got the chance to take pictures with the kungfu panda and minions!!


Dinner was at Malaysian Food Street which is located just beside Universal Studios.




We had Penang Ah Mei hokkien prawn mee and KL Jalan Alor hokkien mee, both were awesomeeee.


The next day we went to visit my favorite place from the entire journey, S.E.A Aquarium, home to thousands and thousands of beautiful sea creatures (more than 100,000 marine animals from across 800 species) in habitats spanning 42.8 million liters of water. It is indeed one of the world's largest aquarium.






Move on to lunch, we had ours at the Ocean Restaurant which is still located inside the S.E.A Aquarium (yup, you can enjoy your food with the exquisite view of those beautiful creatures just like at the ocean gallery), opened by another celebrity chef Cat Cora, serving fresh sea food with Mediteranean and Californian accent, yummm!!



Crab Leg (crabstick) as an appetizer


Duck Leg Confit at its best


Beautifully cooked Sea Bass


I swear I can stay all day in here, it's just too beautiful to be true. My favorite part is of course this huge Main Ocean Gallery.


Next attraction that we experienced is the tricky Trick Eye Museum. "As the first overseas venture of the renowned South Korean gallery, the museum features about 100 paintings and optical illusion installations. More than 50 artworks were created specially and adapted for the Singapore gallery."






After all of those activities above, we went to have dinner at Palio Restaurant (Hotel Michael), trying out some Italian signature dishes.


Fresh Bruschetta Toscana


Delicious Shrimp and Calamari Pizza


Mouth watering Tiramisu


On the next (last) day, we had a little morning fun at the one and only Adventure Cove Waterpark; we enjoyed the float ride on their adventure river and also chillin' at the Bluwater Bay wave pool just before we had our snacks.







We ended our trip by having a tour around a new hotel by Resorts World Sentosa which is strategically located in the bustling town of Jurong East: Genting Hotel Jurong. Shuttle Bus is provided from Resorts World Sentosa and vice versa.



The cute feature in the hotel that caught my eyes: self service laundry machine.




To sum it all, we had so much fun during our short visit to Resorts World Sentosa and all the attractions, we'll be coming back for sure :)
