A Life in Black and White

am not your usual lady in the neighbourhood. i could be fun-loving and ambitions blazing, yet chilling with a good book in hand. loves audrey hepburn movies, lemon-lime-&-bitters, vintage anything and furniture. am not one effortlessly impressed. i see my goals, my dreams and the enjoyment would lie not merely in the success at the end of the road but in this journey of life. livin` it, lovin` it, keepin` it real. i travel alone, i travel light, in my 20`s - la vie est belle!

X'mas colours...

GA hopped on down to the Bobbi Brown warehouse sale last week during her leave, and she was sucha dear to help me pick up a few items :)

Love the lip / brick shimmer palette and the pretty pink summer limited edition palette...and now I've finally gotten my hands on travel sized Bobbi Brown brushes! Got a set for my sis Jo too...

The best bit? All at the bargain price of S$25 per set for everything :)


And now unveiling...X'mas season shoes from the Guess by Marciano sale :)

Can't wait to wear them out!


R's gone off golfing for the weekend, and the house is way too quiet. Glad he made the effort to ring home earlier...even though the whole internet screw up got me quite pissed...in a way, I was glad to hear his voice...

Alrighty, I'm going back to my book!

It's beginning to feel like X'mas!

The streets are lined in gold and lit up with pretty silver lights :) I think mainly what I'm trying to miss out on is the X'mas crowd - way too many people squeezing around and I think it's something I'd gladly give up for a cup of nice tea just chilling at home!

R and I went for dinner last week at this amazing Japanese pasta restaurant - Pasta de waraku. We loved it! There's a newly opened branch at Central (Clarke Quay) but we went on down to the one at Marina Square which was a lot less crowded! The pastas and their pizzas on display look so yummy and to be honest, when we finally tucked it, we can see why friends have gone back for more! :)

On the topic of food, LX and I made our way down to the foodcourt down at Takashimaya's basement the other day and yes it was as crowded as ever. And here's her recommendation - Japanese fried noodles which was an interesting twist from what I'd normally have - it's pretty unique but maybe not that all my cup of tea...too much of that mayo sauce for my liking...

X'mas shopping is never quite complete without a new colour palette for the new year...haha or so I'm discovering as the months are passing. Just added Lancome's day and night eye colour duo to my collection and am awaiting the Jill Stuart mixed blush compact I've ordered to arrive - check it out - it looks so very pretty with all the crystals! I can't wait!

More makeup from Jill Stuart...just look at the gorgeous packaging right - I'm melting...

Ah yes, I got my second X'mas gift today! :) (The first one being the gift from R) - Thanks to Durrow Gal, I'm going to be a lot more financial savvy in the new year! More resolutions, more determination...
