Island Life!

I am back people!!! Which means I am ready to posts few pictures from my recent trip. To answer all your questions I thought I would post the questions in here and give you my answers.

1. Where did I go?

- We headed to an island in The Bahamas called Freeport. This place is where my husband grew up and worked before he met me in Singapore. Three years ago we were married in this island, hence this place is very special to us and not to forget all our family & friends who makes this island more like a HOME. They say "Its always better in the Bahamas".

2. What I packed?

- Our trip was for two weeks and we were also going to do a road trip from Florida to NYC which means change in weather from Summer to Fall. I packed my basic essentials and light fabrics. I did this because I knew I will be shopping in the US and plus we had a lot of traveling so just wanted it to be easy for us.

3. Who I travelled with?

- My husband and my in-laws. My Father-in-Law loves long drives, we were all excited for this trip, especially me since it is my very first trip with them and I loved it. I would say my in-laws are real fun to be with :)

4. Did I carry my camera?

- I did carry my DSLR and didn't bring my charger. To save my battery I reserved my camera for blog pictures and roamed around the island and city taking pictures from my iPhone. I will share the pictures with you for sure.

5. How was the weather in Bahamas?

- It was a lot of sun and rained few times.

6. What I loved about the Bahamas?

- The Food my favorite being fried fish and lobster, The Beautiful Turquoise beaches and the People that passersby that never fails to greet you anywhere you go.

Basking in the sun!

I am in The Bahamas, where my husband grew up. So the blogposts are going to be a bit slow as I am busy basking in the sun, soaking in the beautiful turquoise water and breathing in the island life.

The Smiley Face!

I know its been a week since I've been back from Perth but I just can't get it out of my system. Now I have a special place to bring to my readers the Perth Upmarket, I did mention it in a previous post telling you guys to check it out if ever you visit Western Australia. So here is one of the many reasons why you shouldn't miss this special place.

When I started strolling around this market I stopped myself at this stall that had the cutest of tees with different designs for women, men, kids and babies. I couldn't help but stop by as the T-shirts were pulling me like some sort of magnet. The price was not too shabby either (AUD 30 and 10% of all profits goes to The Centre for Cerebral Palsy in Western Australia).

But the real specialty about these tees are that they are designed by a handsome young man named Daniel Pavlovic who is at the front of his stall and greets you with a big smile. It was so amazing to see his skills and with the challenges he faces on a daily basis there was still that big smile on his face which made me come back to his stall and buy this tee. Read out more about him and his team here: http://danielink.com.au

This city, the people, the weather just inspires me everyday I look at my wardrobe and instantly, a smiley face and a Happy me.

Double Dosage!

Mixing prints has been a huge trend for a while and is here to stay. This style could be very tricky to pull of at times, but the whole idea is to have fun and be adventurous. My secret to this trend is to have the colors (lots of them) and prints from the same family and keep your accessories simple.

As my favorite fashionista once said: “Over the years I have learned that what is important in a dress is the woman who is wearing it.”

All I need is a ray of Sunshine!

I am back in Singapore after a beautiful week spent in Perth the only thing that was topsy turvy on this trip was the unpredictable weather,which actually is how I like my blogpost to be to readers "unpredictable". I was expecting Spring which is "supposed to be" warm weather, instead it's been an extended Winter with heavy rain and strong winds but that didn't stop me from going out and exploring my surroundings. The weather was unpredictable each day, it rained for an hour and then out came the sun and dried up all the rain for few a seconds and then another downpour. This has been the routine for the time I spent in Perth.

But the weather didn't stop me from doing what I love the most bringing a bit a sunshine to a cloudy day!!!!

Perth Upmarket!

I am in Perth for a week, that is the reason for the leave of absence. I thought I would take the time to feed you in a bit about my Perth holiday. Its spring here and the weather could be sunny one minute and gloomy the next, its a welcomed change of scenary for this Singaporean girl I must say.

This Sunday, my bestie and her fiancé brought me to the Perth Upmarket which happens at the University of Western Australia this market brings together over 150 of Perth’s most talented artists, designers, craftsmen and gourmets all under one roof. If you guys ever visit do check this place out as they have an array of products that would tantalize your inner fashionista's taste buds. In my up coming blogpost I will be sharing the many wonderful gems Perth has to offer.
