A Pocket Full of Sunshine

Twenty-Nine.

As pixie Xinmei was leaving us (sobs) for her flight stewardess job, we decided to throw a mini farewell/XMAS dinner with the TCL Team! Haha we decided on Rong Cheng BKT at our office, because

1. We were shifting offices and we'll probably come here less often :'(

2. We have been here for about a year BUT we have never had BKT together before?!

3. I think Bree just wants to have BKT (HAHA)

Anyw! This BKT stall is located at 26 Sin Ming Lane! Just right on the ground floor :)

Let me tantalize your taste buds with the foodie pics!! Hahaha!

All of us ordered BKT except for Bree! She ordered the slice meat soup which is easier to eat actually haha ;)

My portion of BKT! We ordered the prawn paste chicken as well, but it was a little too salty :\

And the soup was alright! Not too peppery!

If you are really hungry, this reallyyyy makes a good meal :)

Prawn paste chicken wings! It was quite exp, like $12 for half a dozen chicken wings?

Here's Xinmei!! Looking all happy with a solo shot :p

Bree and I!

Bree with the Xinmei and Huiee! She was trying to make me feel ostracized again by taking a picture with the pixies without me!! -.-

But hey!! I can take pictures with them too lehhh. LOLL Hahhahaa.

Group picture!! Gonna miss Janelle the power email pixie and Xinmei the power packer lo. :(

And presenting to them their Xmas gifts!! All of them were so happy to receive the gifts ^^

Huiee received a naked santa xmas card and she was elated! HAHA so cute ah this girl!

Can you guess where the pink striped package came from? ;)

Was craving for something sweet so we headed down to Udders!
Perks of having a food street just right across the office.

Gonna miss this food street so much when we shift offices :( Bleahhh.

Selca shots of Bree wahahhaa. Sis you very chio la ;)

Bree and Mel!!!

We ordered their pancakes and ice cream!
Hui Ee says their pancakes are to die for, and yes it's fluffy and nice!
Not too sweet, just right :)

I love Udder's decor! So cuteee.

Haha all of us busy on the phones ;)

Spent a long time chatting at Udders, talking about boyfriends, friends and work!!
Looking forward to our CNY dinner perhaps? ;) <3

I usually do up a post to sum up the previous year, but I shall get down to doing that maybe some time next week hahaha. (Hopefully I get down to doing it >< )

On a side note, we have an outdoor shoot this Wednesday!
So excited to shoot our CNY series! :D

Alright off to bed for a long day at the office tomorrow!!
Happy Monday everyone! :)

Heh since every Saturday is dress up day, I decided to put on some brown eyeshadow! Trying to hone my eyeshadow skills lolll hahaha. You can't see it very well here, but I tried to do a soft brown eyeshadow! :) Used bobbi brown's cream eyeshadow and Naked 2's brown!

A rare time when I am wearing a long sleeved top! Wearing Scallop Bejewelled Top in Peach!

(http://www.theclosetlover.com/tops/scallop-bejewelled-top-peach)

Paired it with a high waist jeggings for a more dressy look! Wanted to wear heels to really oomph up the outfit, but...hahaha I am not very used to wearing heels :p So it shall be my trusty TCL Knotted Suede Flats instead! :)

See the pretty details! I think it looks like a dragon hehehehe.

I bought new accessories from the supplier and wore it on the spot! LOL hahaha.

I am on a blogging roll!! Lol haha it's just because it's the long weekend so I have slightly more time to blog haha. Had our annual dinner celebration with my JC classmates!

We usually have dinner at Nigel's house but decided to head to Cedele for dinner and went for drinks after at his house!

Aww we are all semi grown up now from our young and innocent 17 year old selves hahaha.

Group shot!

We finished eating all the nuts before we finished the drinks hahaha. Old already, cannot drink too much anymore :p

With future Dr Ng hahahaha. Putting on weight ah this guy ;)

Do not underestimate this small cup, for it is a rather strong mixture of Chivas and Green Tea!!!!

Twenty-Sixth.

Hello! It's nearing Xmas!!! My favorite festival of the year haha (and I believe many other people deem this their fave festival too!!)

Had our annual (almost) Xmas dinner with the girls at shrimp's house! We love her house haha it's really a great place for hanging out ;) Anyway silly me thought that it was on Saturday even though I remembered the date to be on the 21st until shrimps mentioned a word "today" and I realized that it was on FRIDAY!!! Oh gosh I went to the office in a super dressed down state (think really zombie looking haha) because I was ready to battle the packing of the parcels with our pixie Hui Ee -.-

But anyway we managed to pack all the parcels by 6pm and I rushed to Cold Storage to purchase ham! And then back home to change and look slightly more presentable!! I actually managed to put on my makeup in a record time of approximately 7 mins #win hahahaha! Slipped on the all-occasions-also-can-wear paperbag courtney dress!!! :D

Fooddd!!! Roasted chicken, baked potatoes, potato salad, salad, fried wanton + my 500g worth of ham (which is not in the picture as I was late)!

Wei Hong helping us to cut up the roast chicken :D The chicken tasted really nice!! I think it was marinated with Honey!

And then we proceeded on to gift exchange!! The girls were so stressed out buying the gift exchange items and each of us was proclaiming how their gift was the best (except for shrimps, but actually her gift wasn't that bad :p )!! I got my gift exchange item from Sephora! If you are running out of ideas, you can head to Sephora! They have plenty of cutesy and girly makeup that will make such an appropriate gift :)

In the end I got Shrimp's gift!!! It was a notebook, along with a super cute gingerbreadman phone plug! :)

Onto to couple shots! :D Hehehehe.

I love spending Xmas with the people I care and love, and it's always such a heartwarming feeling when we all meet up and talk about random stuff, reminiscing the old days! Cheers to many more years of friendship ahead ;)

All photos above credited to Ngles! :D

OTD! Last Saturday's outfit! Wearing a Topshop Dress with TCL Knotted Suede Flats in Black!
Yes this pair of shoes is really megaaa comfy after breaking it!

I am really prone to blisters so if I don't get blisters after wearing it = you probably won't too!
Bree wore it too, no blisters for her! The knotted details are so pretty! And the gold capped part is soft so it doesn't hurt :)

Good hair day! My curls are almost gone! Wondering if I should perm it again :\\

Tadahhhhh!!!! Presenting to you our second manufactured flats! :)

Comes in cobalt blue, wine and black! Awesome colors to match with almost any outfit :DD

Super close up of the knotted details! :) So pretty right? Hehe. I am gonna keep the one in wine too!! Since I already have a cobalt blue flats. But the cobalt blue pair is nice tooo!! :(

Managed to snap a couple of photos with Bree! Die la I think because we see each other almost every day now, we are beginning to look even more alike! Just a shoutout that the one on the right is yours truly, and the one on the left is Bree! I think some customers still mistake me for Bree or Bree for me, but anyway I am Bertilla Wong and she's Brianna Wong! (Just in case you are a first time reader hehe).

Wearing TCL Raindrops Studded Tank with TCL Blockbuster Blazer and leather pants in navy and the knotted sueded flats again! :) Launching next week!!!

And because Bree said she'll be blogging about the BTS for the shoot (while I can't blog ): ) so I'll just post some of my favorite shots!! Hehehe. Have you checked out our lookbook on facebook yet? It's sooo pretty!!! --> http://www.facebook.com/theclosetlover

TCL Raindrops Studded Top! I think this is the must-get of the collection because the studs are really damn cutee! And I heard Mango is selling it, so get it at a fraction of the price on TCL! :D (PLUS we did it in really yummy colors loll hahaha). See how pretty Rebs is here! :)

Cons strutting her stuff in the photo below! She has this amazing ability to look effortlessly pretty and nice in almost every outfit!! For this shot, she was actually you know, just walking towards the photog HAHA.
