lilac rosettes


this pretty dress arrived at my doorstep not too long ago from Su-Estilo. since then, i couldn't take my eyes off it! it was love at first sight(:


the best part of the dress is the detailing of the roses! each little rose sewed on to perfection.


the colour is a lovely shade of lilac in pastel tones. hence, easy to mix and match with other colours!


don't mind me while i dance and prance around in this dream of roses!



if you're thinking of getting one, you better do it quick! this dress is only available in a peach colour now. its rather pretty!

wearing:
clogs: cottonon
bag: mom's vintage

maybe its magic

via tumblr


photos that could slightly show how i feel at this very moment. i love the feeling after watching a good film. as for me, it was The Time Travelers Wife. i can watch it over and over again. i really love Rachel's acting. she just fits the role of the wife/lover so well. i really think you should watch it. if you do, watch it alone. cause... well. you might shed.

a lot.

or maybe i just have a fragile heart.

Urbanscapes '11

Last week i attended Urbanscapes (a creative art festival), for the very first time. I'm still wondering why i haven't heard about it until this year. I really enjoyed myself there; although all i really did was shop. There were so many thrift stores that sold unique things at really good bargains. Unfortunately me and my friend Juliana didn't bring as much cash as we would have liked to if we knew there was gonna be that much of lovely things for sale!



cute fabrics! i got some for myself too.




very very pretty lip balm packaging!!


juliana doing what she does best ; shopping!


handmade soap that smelled rather sweet


rings galore! no, this is just a teeny weeny section.


my girls thrifting!




dessert spread that looked absolutely yummy! regretted not trying those macaroons!! ):

milk and bon bons

yesterday was a lazy and unproductive sunday, as always. i don't know why but i always feel lethargic on sundays; especially after lunch. hence, i often rush my assignments and it disappoints me.


recently i have found a new passion/hobby (if you have been reading my blog i think you will notice?). and that hobby is simply taking pictures of food. i call it foodography! (:


ok so i was rummaging through my fridge to find something cute as props (haha). and i also had to take in mind the colour scheme i was heading for. which is, as you can see in the pictures, pinkish tones! hence, the milk and little bon bons( i have no idea what they're called but i used to eat them when i was little!)


photographing these cute things make me so happy(!) i like adjusting where it should be placed, playing with the composition, the lighting, what props to add in, making sure everything is close to perfect, yada yada...


dont they look so cute stacked ._.


i just had to dive in and eat one.


*doorbell* - went to answer it....
