Minimal Chic!

My husband and I did a post Valentines Day dinner at a French Restaurant in one of the many secret little hideouts in Singapore. We love discovering and trying out new places to eat in Singapore whether we are going out with our friends or just us having a romantic night out on the town.

We didn't do much on V-Day we wanted to avoid the crowd as much as possible. We ended up spending a cozy night at home with the hubby cooking a delicious Caribbean meal for us (when I say us it included our little puggy who just loves his daddy's cooking).

I mist say I am truly blessed to have this man as my valentine and I would do what ever to keep him happy.

we didn't exchange any gifts on V-Day and kept it aside for a later date, but I did get a beautiful bouquet of flowers with a big teddy bear delivered to my work place. (you would have seen this on my Instagram)

Now to the outfit, I had to make this night special and hunt through my wardrobe for fresh options. I don't buy clothes for specific occassions mind you. I had this cut-out dress from ModCloth for quite some time and wanted to wear it in a different way, something that I haven't tried before. After running through my inspiration board for some options, I picked up my favourite ZARA skinnys and kept the look minimal chic.

Oriental Blossoms!

It was a long weekend in Singapore due to Chinese New Year and I spent the majority of it plopped in front of laptop trolling a lot of retail shops online creating my wish list, sleeping on the couch, and in the middle of all this action I found just enough time to savor some grapes, crackers and cheese with a hint of moscato. On one of my not so lazy days my husband and I got off our butts to meet up with friends for dinner, in one of our favorite districts in Singapore (Arab Street). In Singapore Chinese New Year is a major holiday and it turns a usually bustling city into a ghost town, which is a double edged sword because all the restaurants are empty but is bad because most of our favorite little eateries are closed. At the end of the night we ended up searching high and low for a good cafe to fulfill our sweet tooth's, it was a bit of a struggle to find dessert, but with a bit of foot power and a lot of patience we finally settled for a bit of baklava and Ice cream.
