self-discovery.


For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the LORD, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.'
- Jeremiah 29:11

A phrase that's dear to my heart, words of wisdom by a few loved ones who deeply care for me. Thanks for all the support fellas. :)

Attended the life purpose workshop that mum signed us up for on Saturday and explored around the area right after. Realised that the scarlet hotel was just round the corner and decided to chill there for a 2 hour catch-up session about our lives over the past 2 over months.

B's cheap Zara buys there are driving me insane, I'll defo be saving money and waiting for the right opportunity to make a trip there.





Scarlet Breeze at 4th floor.








I always cherish our time together and I'm really thankful to have a friend in B whom I can confide in about virtually anything and everything. The experiences we have had brought us that much closer to each other despite the many personality/character differences we have. :)

So glad tmr's gonna be a chillax Monday, followed by an awesome public holiday spent in the best possible way I've been able to.

Cheerios and enjoy this month - 2 more public holidays to come!

ASOS.


It's the season for mega sales on ASOS!
Really love their stuff, plus free shipping - who can resist when dresses are as low as £13?

These are some of my picks (within a budget of £20):

Would have been a Jaynelles item if not for someone. Rahhh. :(
I think A will be getting the one in brick red.

 Organza shift dress, it looks so soft and comfy.

 I'm soooo glad Jaynelles will be coming up with something like this soon, the sleeves and cut are purrrfect for work and chic for a casual day out around town.

 Side drapeeessss.

Ideal length for work, but how tall is she?!
This dress looks long enough to reach my knees. 

 If not for the fact that I have a 5 day work week, leaving me with only 2 days to dress down, I'd definitely wanna get this. Love the chilli red, colour block and ruffles.

The classic shift dress in a bright colour.
What better to create a bold statement in office? 

Black pleated skirt - love that it's not chiffon but a soft viscose/elastane and polyester which defines the pleats in a better way.

I've ordered one of the shortest and one of the longest dresses recommended by me above. I hope the length will suit me fine for both as work dresses!

another night, another day.


First and of utmost importance, I really need opinions on this dress!
I love how unique it is (as opposed to current designs on blogshops) with the material mixes but will it be something you'd consider wearing to work? Are the material mixes too overboard and is this a cut you working ladies out there wanna wear for work?

Appreciate all kinds of feedback and suggestions! :)

If we decide to do this, it'll be in 2 sizes (S & M) in 3 or 4 colours.




Silly Beamz is getting attached to the cold marble flooring under the fan in the living room. It's so difficult to get her back into her cage nowadays.






Majority of Saturday was dedicated to the cheerleading squad at KPMG's sports day 2011.
Here are some pics I took while assuming the role of a photographer:


Mascots for 2 teams. 

 Fantastic weather!

 Very few pathetic food stalls unfortunately, not enough to satisfy the tummy and quench everyone's thirst.

The going concern & the uncle. 

 Probably the one and only pic I'll have of this fella!


 Another mascot!


Manager Lee looking focused on the battlefield! hahaha.


 The Mighty Sapphires.




 The sabo-ed Cheerleaders.

 Tug-of-war team!


 These guys, are awesome. :)


Ichiban Sushi again!


 Cheese goes well with almost anything aye?

 N's haircut. Hahaha. He looks so boy-boy here.




Sunday's outfit + Captain America movie at Downtown!


I know this is a pretty wordless entry, but I'm quite mentally drained to express my thoughts now cos work and the Jaynelles biz is seriously more than I can handle but I've gotta hang in there and tidy up some more admin stuff and meet deadlines on time, be it work or biz.

Gotta continue to be productive, happy midweek y'all!
