Trick or Treat!

I was originally going to be Annie from the Broadway Show but I lack of curly red hair and I couldn't find any wig with the description. Thus, I decided just to be Wednesday Addams instead. It's a super simple Halloween costume. All you need is a black dress preferably with collar cause she has this school girl look, also, braid your hair, and then completed with a pale make up. Lots of people carry a beheaded doll but I don't want to send the wrong message.

Hopefully everybody is having a great Halloween night.

Stay safe and don't forget to brush your teeth after all those candies.

People judge you in the first seven seconds when they saw you. They gauge your attitude, your posture, eye contact, and facial expression. And you'll never know who will be your next boss, your next bestfriend, or even your future Prince Charming. So my suggestion is try to always smile and look confident. Stand up straight and relax your facial muscles so you don't look stress or angry. If you do look like that, people might just think you are an angry and stressful person. And well, that's not exactly  attractive. Thus, I always try to smile more and put my best pink heel forward.

How adorable this pink heels are! I love the fact that it's pink, obviously. But it also has the perfect height to walk around in for all day long. The white tee is from Sacs et Chaussures. Although I am not a t-shirt person, I thought I tried it out once in a while. I actually amazed how the tee made the whole outfit looks more "free". Sacs et Chaussures sells clothes and accesories. My favorite is this adorable yellow mustard shorts with studs.

Have a great Monday, all!

Yes, long due but I only got around to the pictures now (considering, I left my camera charger at home). Enjoy!

Hello, I am still alive! Barely.. Tired eyes, tired soul, and tired mind. Just popping in out of guilt and also missing the blogsphere quite bad. The Emerge event was a huge success and I feel so lucky, blessed, and even proud that I am a part of the youth revival. I love serving my God and so happy that I am allowed to serve Him. At the end of the event, I found my self just washed by this wave of exhaustion but at the same time, satisfaction, also a slice of sadness that it was all over. Now, two days later, I found myself missing the people, the stress, and the sore feet. I guess, at the end of the day, the journey is the destination. Surrounded with so many great and kind people for the past six months of preparation, they show me how a real Christian supposed to act. I couldn't feel more blessed.

As for the outfit, the highlight is definitely the sweater guards and the cat printed skirt! I am developing a love for cats. They seem to taking over my instagram feed by storm. And yes, I shamelessly wear a vintage blouse and highwaisted skirt again. My most favorite outfit combination.

Hopefully all of you is having a great morning!

"So don't be afraid to make mistakes, stumble and fall because most of the time, the greatest rewards come from doing the things that scare you the most. Maybe you'll get everything you wish for. Maybe you'll get more than you could have ever imagined. Who knows where life will take you. The road is long and in the end . . . the journey is the destination" - One Tree Hill

Cafes and restaurants are surely constantly reminding you to prepare your costume for this Scary Festival. I personally have two ideas but not sure which one to choose!

As you probably can tell, I love collar necklaces. I love anything collar generally. I collect both detachable collar and collar necklaces. Therefore, when collars are gaining popularity, I was as excited as a kid on a Christmas morning. Collar necklaces add a finesse touch to your outfit and seeing them peering through your blazer/shirt collar is like spotting a gem. I have four so far and two of them including this one, are from the kind Juerii Shop. This one has beautiful pearls all around while the other one has white stones all over. (Click here and here to see how I styled it)

I haven't been feeling really happy or healthy lately. It's like the happines and the health is veiled with something that I can't quite place it. I do believe this is only a passing thing and the sun will continue to shine (as same with the pouring rain) and in one of those days, I will look around, and realized "hey, I'm actually happy. And I feel great!" 

Hence, I will keep going, and will be looking forward to that day..

"Even if happiness forgets you for a little bit, never competely forget it" - Jacques Prevert

Hopefully all of you will have a terrific weekend!

Hello, just me and some of my favorite stockings dropping by to say hi. 

Now that the weather starts to cool down, I dust off my stockings box and let my stocking-friends  to breathe. They are extremely happy to see the sunlight again (although only for a brief moments before the rain pour down) and I also very excited to take them for a stroll around the town. Days have slowed down and I got 8 hours of sleep for two days on the row. Definitely feeling much better although there are still so many details to be done for this upcoming event called Emerge. A little bit frantic, but definitely excited! I have a full faith on my team :)

Back to the stockings, the first with the heart prints all over is from H&M. The second with dainty white flowers all over is from Forever21. The third with the tiny tiny pink flowers is from a stocking booth in PVJ mall. And the polkadots with bows one is also from PVJ. I am always on the hunt for cute stockings even in summer. They can take your outfit the next level and add some quirky points to the whole outfit.

Hopefully all of you is having a great Wednesday!
