Happy Year of the Dragon everyone! 新年快樂! Wishing everyone a healthy and prosperous year!

Sorry I have been M.I.A for some time, as you all know, I went to North America for my birthday, Christmas and New Years.  I also just returned from Brisbane yesterday because my boy has started to lawyer over there.

What a difference in temperatures!! From -2degrees to 35degrees celsius.

Ever have problems packing a suitcase quarter full of clothes (because you’re going to be filling it up with new clothes later) but not wanting all your photos to look like it was taken all on the same day? Well, I’ll show you in the next few posts how I mixed and matched most of my winter outfits!

Hope you like the photos and the looks!

Wish I lived in New York, it is such an energetic city; full of life and colours. Just look at the views – breathtaking indeed.

Outfit:

Top:   Zara Basic white sweater

Jacket:   Rabbit fur jacket bought from Korea (old)

Jeans:   Armani Exchange J22 Coated Denim Legging

Shoes:   Michael Kors Blomley Flat Boots

Bag:  DKNYc Leopard Print satchel

Necklace:   Bebe purple jewelled necklace

I haven’t picked it up yet though – because they had to order my size in, but I’m due to pick it up just 3 hours before I fly to Malaysia tomorrow!!!

It was a sunny, but windy afternoon – so I took some snapshots of my fashion of the day.

I’m wearing another hair piece from Badbarbie today. It is the bun!!! A few shop assistants stopped me to ask about it and I referred them over to Badbarbie. It’s amazing but still quite heavy!

I had to run back to my car and found my hair bun falling lower and lower – as would your real hair! I had to hold my hair up just incase it fell off!

But nonetheless, I really love this hairpiece and would highly recommend it!

I can’t believe I’m off to Malaysia tomorrow! I will remember to take lots of photos and keep you’ll updated on the outcome of the finalists!

Keep safe whilst I’m away. x

Wigs are something I tend to purchase alot but have no idea how to wear. I’m always in search for the best quality and best looking wigs, but with the simple thought of old men with bald heads and their wigs slipping off their heads – I’ve never ever worn one out. Only for my blog photos.

That’s one of the reasons I love to blog I guess. Gives me a second reason to camwhore with useless items I’ll never wear out.

The wig is actually pretty hard to wear out without styling it somehow, but I think that’s how gyarus pull it off! I’m inclined to continue trying the wigs I have purchased and will continue to keep ya’ll updated!!

This is my first fashion blog post, I don’t know how to photoshop and unlike my dear sister, chaigyaru, I don’t know how to take beautiful photos. So here goes…

Summer is here (even though it is feels like Winter in Sydney for the past week or so) and white and bright colours are your best friends.

What’s your favourite colour at the moment?

I like match basics with a splash of colour. White clothing are one of my favourites. It evokes a clean and pure look, and pretty much goes with anything (but remember, paint your nails! It makes a difference to your basic outfit). Here I matched my basic white top and shorts with an orange (my favourite colour at the moment) belt, statement earrings and nude bag and heels – Thanks to www.bettyshoe.com!!

Hope you like the look!

Despite how high the heel looks, it is actually a very comfortable shoe. It is quite secure on the foot and because I’m used to wearing heels, I feel as if I am able to run in these.

I’ve always been a fan of the colour gold, and the hardware on the bag really caught my attention when I first saw it.

I love a statement necklace and when it’s paired with something simple, it always looks so amazing.

I purchased one of my favourite statement necklaces from Prettybird in Rozelle last week to wear to the wedding and many of you complimented on the piece!! Its an amazing piece – so glad I found it!

The detailing on the necklace is amazing and almost looks as expensive as a Mimco necklace!!!

I know you are super jealous!!! Now head over to Pretty Bird – because you may find it still there~ or if you have suggestions on where else to purchase statement necklaces, please let everyone else (and me) know!

Remember, the key to wearing a statement necklace is “less is more” – do not wear anything with messy patterns – you’ll only end up looking like a clown!

The wedding season is quickly approaching but at this time of the year, we mainly hear lover birds swooping across the blue skies. We hear about proposals, engagement parties and wedding plans.. all these happy thoughts and happy couples around us… filling me with envy :)

欣賞眼前人 (appreciate those who are infront of you) is a phrase we always hear, but we don’t really realise how important it is until we lose someone. Don’t wait for the moment you lose the one you love until you start to appreciate him/her.

Congratulations to Andy & Yo-yo

It’s actually the first time I’ve attended a wedding!! Well, apart from those times when I was only 2 years old and Mum flew me over to Hong Kong to attend her sister’s ceremony. I don’t even remember it and if photos weren’t there to prove it, I wouldn’t even believe it!

I’m so glad that I was able to attend my first ever wedding ceremony with Mr.CG! It is his first too!!!

I decided to go for a Colour blocking theme – coral and turquoise

Although family is always family, it’s not always the case that you have such great fun with your sibling. Appreciate your family. <3

I tried to photo shoot the other day, but was greatly interrupted by the boy coming to visit Yuki. I failed my photo shoot miserably and ended up having a guest in my photos. Sigh.

I love going home after work because I know I can finally strip off my carefully ironed shirts and drop down my tight waisted skirts. It’s the best feeling after a long work day. Shorts are my favourite items. They are so comfortable and when you’ve got a nice fake tan (non-streaky/patchy), you really get to show off your legs.

Hello to the warm weather.

Fokis, one of my favourite bloggers (she’s from Sweden and currently lives in Thailand) recently opened up an online shop which I absolutely adore. Did I say adore???

Everything in her shop is soooo kawaiii and it has free worldwide shipping!! I haven’t yet decided what to purchase yet, but I’m definitely going to make my first purchase soon!!

Go and support her!!

1. Fokiwa Dolly Flowy ~AU$191

2. Sailor From Heaven ~AU$144

3. Twistie Cutie ~AU$191

I think it is a little bit expensive – compared to other clothing online, but she designed all the pieces in Fokiwa brand herself and has put in a lot of effort! The pieces are so original that I don’t think it would be available anywhere else!

I wish I could start up an online fashion shop as well, but I do think that managing a blog with youtube and a full time job is hard enough! :(

Let me see what you guys like from her online shop and if you think I should open up my own shop too!
