White Angels

/ / m a i n / /

hello!!

recently i finally had a few quality catch up seshs with the bestie.

i think within these few weeks we had more outings than we had the past year!

cos during J2, free time is practically like, non-existent.

so yup, we decided to head to tanjong pagar for some yummy food!!

but first, some otds hehe.

i'm in an all white ensemble because really, white is my favourite colour to wear!

outfit deets:

d-ring romper from theclosetlover

bag from bershka

wooden sandals from topshop

i love how this series of photos below aptly show my sombre (soft ombre) hair colour!

the ends are ash brown and its blended nicely by nic, my hairstylist at headlines!

read my posts on headlines here:

(dyna, colouring, treatments)

the place we decided on was may may, a japanese fusion restaurant.

i had the cold somen, sylvia had the warm somen, and we shared liu sha doughnuts for dessert!

they have some lunch promo which you can top up 3SGD for a set meal, which comes with a salad and soft drink.

they're actually famous for their cod rice bowl, but neither of us were fans of cod fish so we opted for the noodles!

sesame salad!

this was yums, i absolutely love japanese salad sauces, so so good.

be warned that the somen is spicy! 

but it was so so good!

the roe, spring onion, sauce and springy noodles just came together so well to provide a burst of flavour and texture in every bite.

i would definitely recommend this!

and its worth it for the price too because its a huge bowl, good for sharing actually, if you don't have a huge appetite.

and finally... the insta-famous liu sha donuts!!

this was not overrated at all cos it was sooo yum!

its a tad pricey at 7SGD for 3 pieces but omg its so good i'll pay for it.

definitely a must try.

may may has a beautiful modern interior as well.

parts of it is white themed and another section has bountiful greenery and natural sunlight peeking in.

perfect for snapping a photo!

hehe, us looking all happy after filling our tummies with a good meal!

here's another set of otds cos i was really in a mood for otds that day haha.

love the contrast between white and black, and the complementary peek of gold in these frames!

upclose of the d-ring details!

headed down to orchard central to shop at editors with my llamas and grab a bite at dean and deluca cos...there's always space for cake! especially when its rainbow cake hehe.

love how we're decked in monochromatic colours, totally unplanned i swear!

and then finally, last event of the day was to go to D's church choir concert!

for once i'm attending his choir concert instead of him attending mine haha.

this boy is always so shy when it comes to singing hehe.

it was definitely a fruitful and meaningful concert.

this was a super blessed day indeed.

till the next;

xoxo

hello friends!! 

after much procrastination and delay (oops), i'm finally publishing the first post of my trip to bangkok!! -pops confetti-

our itinerary was very simple, it mainly consisted of the malls we wanted to go to, the cafes we wanted to try and a few other touristy sites.

we took scoot there btw, and the timing was quite cray, we had to reach the airport at 2+am...

and we landed at 6am, which was quite a bad timing cos the malls and everything aren't open yet.

but the flight was a rather smooth one though.

at the airport's arrival hall there's a telecom booth, its quite easy to spot cos alot of tourists will flock there!

we got our thai sim cards there which allowed us to have 4G for a week, and it was very fast.

its not very expensive also, about $3-4 a day for unlimited data!

for accommodation, we stayed at berkeley hotel, and i have nothing bad to say about this hotel, it was rated 4 stars and i actually think its worth 5 stars haha.

its a 5-10 minutes walk away from platinum mall, and a walkable distance away from the other malls like central world as well.

not to mention, the interior of the hotel is so plush and grand, i'll let the visuals speak for themselves!

chandeliers, huge floral bouquets, gold themed designs, ooh la la ;)

on the first day, we visited chatuchak and chocolate ville.

chatuchak is a weekend market, i'll recommend you go there slightly earlier because it gets realllly hot later on in the day.
but if you stay in the sheltered area its actually not that bad, its when you walk in the sun then omg, it literally burns?!

we managed to get a few buys from chatuchak, but not at a steal.

somehow we walked into this japanese/korean inspired street and bought most of our stuff from there as its of better quality and the shops were actually air conditioned hahaha.

must try: coconut ice cream, fresh coconut juice

chocolate ville is a european themed mini village, that is something like USS i would say, minus the rides. 

its located quite far away from the central area so be prepared to pay about 400-500 baht for the taxi ride!

but its worth the fare (especially if you're travelling in a group of 3-4), because you can take alot of gorgeous photos there!

its a really pretty place that you can just chill and walk around to take in the sights and relax.

there are also alot of food places around chocolate ville so you can take your pick!

the food is not bad and the service is really good.

but note that chocolate ville is only opened from late afternooon, about 4/5pm onwards.
i would suggest you reach there the moment it opens (kiasu sporean mindset lol) because then it wouldn't be hot yet there is still sufficient lighting, and its less crowded so easier to take photos.

us in our natural state, fooling around hahaha.

and...yup! thats pretty much what we did in day 1!

stay tuned for day 2! we visited some pretty dope cafes ;)

till the next;

xoxo
