A Pocket Full of Sunshine

Tralalala it's the weekends! I miss my G12 soo much. Even tho Bree lent me her olympus, being a camera noob, we are unable to use the camera efficiently!!! Very much prefer the G12 which has awesome auto settings for camera noobs like us hahaha. Need to get back my G12 soon!!! As a result, there's a lack of photos for me to put in this post, but I'll just make do with what I have! :D

This is a backdated OTD, but since I love this dress soo much, I have to post the pics!! Heh. 

TCL Paperbag Courtney Dress in Royal Blue!!! :) 

When Bree took the pics, the sun was setting in the background, which resulted in the rather warm photo effect hahaha. Quite cool right :p I think we took like 10,001 shots but we couldn't get a good picture because we didn't know how to tune the camera settings ): Bleahhh.

 

 Truer colors of the dress! Pretty paperbag pleats :) I have the old one in white! Now I have royal blue! Yay! Luckily I didn't keep rose if not I'll have the same dress in three colors :o

Bree says I have a "chao lao" face ): </3

We tried like three different locations, even trying to get a good shot at the traffic light -.- HAHA I think I look the same in all the photos oops :p

How's it? Is it nice? :p

Bree said it's too demure for me -.-

First up! Peterpan lace insert pleated blouson :)

Balloon sleeves with <3 hehe

 And because Bree can't get enough of knit tops...more knit tops coming up!! 

I need to stop Bree from bringing too much knit tops in, but she's like madly in love with them -.-
Haha okay this one is a different style tho! It's buttoned up and in new colors!!

Second knit top is a throwover in burnt orange!! Different style ya ;) 

We brought in a new color of camel! Yay to fall colors hahaha

  

Denim shirts anyone? ;) 

 

Deng deng deng deng!! Topshop inspired vintage floral denim vest! When Bree saw this she literally cried out! And our pixie confirmed a piece the moment she saw it too!!
In vintage floral prints, and quality is really good for this too!

I can't really wear vests very well, but I am contemplating to keep this too :p

 

Two simple printed tops! Prints galoreeee. 

Bree is mad she kept BOTHHH.

When she has soooo many clothes aiyoo

  Studded collared top with a slightly unique back! :)
I can't remember the colors that we brought in, but it's bright colors for sure!

Happiness for your wardrobe hehe. 

 

 

And the flats which we waited a longggg time for - crochet silver capped flats!!
Same cutting as studded flats in nude and black, so if that pair of flats fits you perfectly well, this will tooo!

Yawnsss haha I am really tired as I am typing this! Therefore the pic above is a good image to start the post :p Anyw that's an old picture taken last week when I went to have my pretty nails done! Yay to tribal nails!! 

Managed to snap some photos of the process of painting tribal nails!! It's a really long process! If a manicurist does it for you for the first time, she might take 3 hours! But my manicurist was so pro and have done it so many times, she only took like 1 hour 15 mins! :) 

So how do you paint tribal nails? 

1. Find a tribal nail design (search tribalnails hashtag on instag)

2. Paint on base coat + first layer of colors!!! Basically it's painted by painting all the fingers with the white colored portions of the design, followed by green, pink etc etc.

3. Paint a double coat

4. Add in black outline lines

5. Paint topcoat

Sounds so simple right :p Here's the first step!! 

Half way through, it'll look like this!!! Hehe. Sorry it's abit blur ):

Rawr I am gonna eat euuuu. Hahahaha.

After adding in the black outline lines, the end product...TADAHHHH!!!! It's such a painstaking process to paint this design, but my manicurist said that she actually enjoys painting such designs! Challenging enough for her lolll hahaha. I don't think I have the patience to paint on such designs myself zzz.

It's so chio so I shall spam more pictures hehehe. So glad I chose bright neon colors for this look! Bree did it in pastels the last time ;)

Tribal x Tribal!! :) Bree's tribal iphone case from high society!!

 

And coincidentally I was wearing our tribal muse maxi in black for the day! Perfect outfit! Going mega crazy over tribal prints that day :p 

If you love tribal nails, hope this design will be a good reference for you!! :)

Since we are onto the tribal craze, let me introduce to you our TCL Aztec skirt!!! Hehe. :) I wore it like twice in a week hahaha. Matched it with TCL eyelet bustier for one outfit, and a colorblock knit top in another!

It's really comfy and in light cotton material! Non-sheer with inner lining!

In another of my fave TCL eyelet bustier! Waited eons for this design to arrive, but soo worth the wait man :) It's not too long, or too short to be worn as a top or tucked in under high waist shorts!

I looked so tired that day :'(

I headed to Aloy Thai for dinner with my girlies to send off yvette for her exchange! Aw she's going to have so much fun :) Food at aloy thai is great! But portion is small and of course, pricing is not as cheap as BKK ah but still nice!

<3 <3

Rach, vette and twinnie!! We all look so happy and young :'))

Haha vette was trying to stop huimin from taking her wallet because we were all fighting to be the one to foot the bill -.-

Vette: "Go away bert!! Don't take pictures of me!!!" (Me: HEH took alreadyyy :p )

With pretty rachel!! (:

QC-ing our photo taken on the iphone :p

I'll miss you vette!!! Hope you are having a good time :)

  

Some random photos taken with the cammie!

This is pretty awesome yummilicious marshmellow basic chiffon tanks in a whole array of colors!! (Omg such a mouthful) I couldnt decide which color to keep, but in the end I kept hot pink!

I am really on a pink streak hahaha I kept another studded tank dress in hot pink too -.- 

 

 OTD! Posing with the moustache iphone cases (for giveaway) because I had nothing else to hold -.-

I look sooo demure here oh dear! In actual fact I am not a very demure person to begin with :p

And because we didn't manage to post any sneaks on FB, I shall post some of my favorites!! We have plenty of designs coming up as usual, so get ready to be spoilt for choice ah!

The hot pink studded dress that I kept! :) Comes in sunshine yellow, black, dodger blue and hot pink!! (How can you not be spoilt for choice :p)

The everyday-also-can-wear or knit-top-for-knit-lovers or i-love-knit-top lovers must get this!! Needless to say, another piece which Bree kept! She has like 10001 knit tops in her cupboard -.-

Comes in kelly green, hot pink..and many more colors which I cannot remember :\ 

In another similar design, but with shredded details, (BUT YUMMY COLORS) - LILAC AND PASTEL ORANGEEEE <3 <3

Go for a victorian look with this lace trimming chiffon top! Pair with lace peplum skirt :) Also launching on Monday!! 

Marshmellow chiffon tank! Too many colors, so I'll just sneak one okay ;) 

Dodger blue blazer! Whee! There's a twist to the blazer! Check out our facebook page tomorrow to see the full outfit hehe :p

Tribal mesh dress! When I saw it, I knew we had to bring it in :)

And...Ombre Chiffon Maxi Skirts!!!! Seriously, this skirt is really damn chio hahaha. Comes in light blue, light peach and light green! :) 

Studded clutch, for bag lovers!!! 

It's pretty flat, so you can probably only carry it around with just your wallet, handphone and some daily necessities.

Okay that's all for the mini sneaks, more to be up on facebook tomorrow! :)

To end off the post, a picture of the pretty moustache iphone cases!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend everybody! :)
