The Boyfriend is currently in Japan on vacation with his bachelor mates. I thought about tagging along, but I would have stuck out like a sore thumb. With Stephie still in Europe, I feel a little left behind this few days. But there’s a silver lining to every dark cloud, and in this case, it’ll [...]
Doesn’t this remind you of the pencils we used to buy at the bookshop during recess back in primary school?!
Maybe I’m old now, but I used to obsessed over these - somehow, it was ultra-fun to push and pull the tips in and out whenever you want a change of colours!
This super appeals to the [...]
I know I have not done a budget writeup for some time, so let me introduce you to E.L.F. Cosmetics. I first heard about this brand when I was an undergraduate, and madly in love with playing with makeup. A friend asked me if I wanted to place an order with her for brushes and [...]
One of “The Girls” (that’s the circle of love that Dottie and I have hung out with for a decade now) have this habit of sharing juicy gossip bits with us whenever one comes her way.
We all get a kick out of it, and realise that if you start with this phrase “Let me tell [...]
How was your weekend?
Mine was filled with slow sips of cappuccino, a long game of Scrabble, marathon of streaming korean drama clips, purchases of coloured tights, and ogling at pretty lace-ups in shop windows! On top of that, intermittent upheavals of photos due to our unfortunate bandwidth problem.
I’ve gotten down to saving half of the [...]

We’ve gone through the trunkload of entries - many thanks for all who’ve submitted your answers to us! I have to say, the response was much better than expected so it was tough trying to choose a [...]
A sad piece of news came in over the radio as I was making my way to Haji Lane for dinner with Dottie. Amidst a mild traffic jam, I heard on the six o’clock news that Mr. Shu Uemura passed away of pneumonia on December 29.
I mulled and wondered - only knowing he was a [...]
I used to have this colleague who is obsessed with mascara. She was the only one I knew who could say yes to all the mascara brands I could name. Paul&Joe? Tried and tested! YSL? Chanel? Maybelline? Loreal? Everything else? Okay, so maybe she might not have tried Helena Rubinstein, but I am certain she [...]
As everyone should know, then end of the year is the best time to stock up on make-up palettes, because that’s when they have the prettiest and most value-for-money holiday speacials.
I couldn’t resist getting something - its like a candy shop for seriously sweet-toothed!
Just to share, I’d gotten the M.A.C Royal Assets Eye Palette in [...]
Dear Fairy Godmother,My birthday is in a few months time (four to be exact). I will be eternally grateful if you can give me an advance on my birthday present, and bring me this gorgeous Chanel Collection Essentielle (US$80) compact.
I’m sure you know my address.
