Baby M Loves TV - 15 Months Portraits

When baby M is busy staring at prime time TV ads, photoholic mama quickly took her chance to snap.











When he saw a hot guy on TV with similar build to SC, he'd shout Ah Pa! (You wish, son)
He calls TV "gogor" (Canto for big bro), because he's seen some boy bands singing on TV.
He can point remote controller to the right direction and he'd be very happy if he could press some buttons which affects what's happening on TV.
In short, he's getting so big!

Ultra Festive Vintage Sweater & Some Holiday Outfits

My favorite outfit during the holidays! Look at my vintage sweater. So festiveeee!


And I love this el cheapo hat that I bought for SC, which is a not-so-secret code for "I bought it for myself". Heheheh.

Another fantastic thing, my perpetual bad hair day is slowly leaving me. Bye byeeeee, I won't miss you at all! Don't ever come back!

Here are some lazy outfits from the holidays...mostly of baby M, because mama & papa didn't change out of pajamas & chunky sweater....

SC in old Uniqlo fleece jacket & adidas stretchy pants; baby M in el cheapo but super soft and cute turtleneck sweater from Sham Shui Po, fluffy pants and leggings and socks (grandma always insists that we don't make baby M wear enough clothes heheheh).


Baby M in H&M hat and grandpa cardi.


Baby M in H&M baby girl hoodies with cute bunny ears.

Now make me jealous with all your glamorous holiday outfits...I have a box of tissues to wipe my tears at the ready :D

Chubby Chic - Pattern Mixing

I fancy myself as a pattern mixer, but the truly awesomefab pattern mixer is actually my sis, lil' miss chubby chic. I mix stuff which normally end up look awkward together, but she mixes stuff which I thought would've looked awkward, but always ended up looking damn good. I need to learn more from her :D or simply copy her look bwahahahahah (bad student).


El cheapo jacket from Hong Kong street market, Monki striped tee, vintage scarf, vintage bag, unbranded pants, boots and specs.

Festive Vintage Sweater

It may not be red and green...it may not have reindeers or santas or snowflakes, but I don't know why I feel that this vintage sweater is quite festive :)


Oh, maybe because I wore a pair of green tights with it :D

Speaking of festive outfits, I hope this year I'll have a chance to take cheesy Christmas outfit photos with SC and baby M.

Wishing you HAPPY HOLIDAYS, everyone!

Recent Favorite Vintage Find - Coral Dress

Recent favorite vintage find, thanks to Miss ChicMcMuffin!
Love the color, the pattern, the puffy sleeves, the white collar...


...and how it fits me perfectly!

Dress + belt + boots and I'm good to go.
My go-to lazy combo :D

Vintage dress, H&M belt, unbranded glasses, Steve Madden boots

Lazy Work Outfit

What I am wearing now as I am typing this post.
Vintage shirt, SC's sweater.


El cheapo shoes, H&M polka dot socks, Bossini pants.

No accessories, no eye make up.
Soooo hard to get out of bed in the morning! Argh!

Holey Moly! Sweater & Vintage Shirt

Having no DSLR photos should stop me from posting my stupid outfits? Pffffft. I don't think so.
This is one of my favorite recent buys. A comfy black sweater with holes on the sleeves.


It makes my vintage shirts more cool weather friendly!

Pout for Good - MAC Viva Glam for World AIDS Day 2011

I hardly think beyond superficialities (it's not a word, I know), especially when it comes to beauty products. If it makes me look good and it's within my budget (or not. Ahem!), I'll love it. But M.A.C's Viva Glam makes me think beyond that.

Sometimes it's not only about the sparkles, the glitz and glams, but the reasons behind it too. Behind M.A.C Viva Glam products, there's a good cause. For every M.A.C Viva Glam product sold, 100% of the selling price (less VAT) goes to the M∙A∙C AIDS Fund.

So, now whenever I do this...

...I know that I pout for good.

Vintage Dress & Blazer

Sometimes I am so amazed by how creative and imaginative I am with my post titles. Not.
Anyway.
Perfect weather for a thin blazer. And low boots.

H&M blazer, vintage dress, cotton on belt, steve madden shoes, unbranded glasses

Peach Jacket & Purple Vintage Dress

A thin jacket to keep myself warm in freezing office.
I kinda like this color combo.
Damn, I really need to do something about my gray hair! Ugh!

Vintage dress, Zara belt, jacket bought in KL, unbranded glasses

My Favorite Spikey Necklace & Landscape Vintage Shirt

First of all, I look much better when blurry, dontcha think?


This is my current favorite necklace. Well it's not mine, actually. It's SC's necklace, but I love borrowing it all the time :D


And although autumn is here, I still love summer colors, such as this pretty coral for my nails.


And I love the landscape pattern on this vintage shirt. Wore it with a pair of comfy shorts, for a lunch and vintage store hopping with my lovely girlfriends.

Vintage shirt, unbranded necklace and rings, H&M shorts and bag, converse flip flop (not in photos, opps)

Shaggy Vintage Jacket

All the shots were meant to be like this. some clear part, nice depth of field, blablabla.
PS. Don't we all adore vintage buttons?

But sometimes, it gets blurry and weird like this.

Why?

Because...

There's a baby in the house, and he's cute as heck and mama can't help but stop to give him a cuddle every time.


Thus the lack of nice photos and outfit posts these days.
That, and many many many other reasons which I am not going to bore you with.

PPS. No, I'm not pregnant, I am just fat.
Thank you very much :D

Vintage jacket, vintage dress, H&M belt, muji socks, wanko shoes


PPPS. Yay to cooler weather and hiding my fatness in jackets.

Happy Halloween - Scary Face

Happy Halloween, everyone!
Did you go trick or treating? Did you wear a scary but sexy costume? Did you have lots of fun?
We didn't do any of them, I didn't even dress baby M in yet another embarrassing outfit.
I didn't dress myself up in a slutty outfit and go partying, but did put on a scary face....

...by not putting on my usual eye make up.

Oppps.
Sorry for scaring you to death.
:p

Baby M Walking Happily

Baby M has started learning to walk quite a while ago, but hasn't really mastered it enough to make him prefer walking than speed-crawling. But now, after falling a gadzillion times flat on his butt, he's finally loving it. He gets up and walks whenever he needs to go somewhere.

Walking is his preferred mode of "transportation" now :D

Wish Upon A Shoe - Alexander McQueen

Look what I've found in a vintage shop.
Want!
Too bad they don't fit me :(
I want the floor too, for my new kitchen or bathroom.
Hope I can still find something like that.

Hong Kong Neighborhood - Mei Foo Sun Chuen - Cityscape Photography

My first time playing with flare.


With the right lighting and mood, any neighborhood could look so heavenly!


Took the pics when we were checking out a playgroup place for baby M.

Vintage Shirt & Boys Cardigan - Bad Hair Days

It's been forever since I posted my outfit.
I've been lazy, been having the longest bout of bad hair days... T_T
I've been repeat-wearing one vintage dress after another, not at all inspiring.


The day I was wearing this outfit, bored and not wanting to pull another vintage dress, I just randomly put together stuff and called it a day.
Like...whatevs!


Same thing with the rings, just piled on random rings and be done with it.
This outfit should be titled the whatever.
Hmm...in this picture, it looked like I am giving the finger or saying something indecent with my hands...sorry about that, please rest assured that I was not ^_^'

Thrifted vintage shirt, SC's unbranded cardi, Cotton On skirt, Union wedges, Nepal rings from Temple St, Faux jade ring from Tsuen Wan, engagement ring & wedding ring

I Love Playlord's Men's

I adore Playlord. They do super adorable menswear without being too cotton candy sweet!
SC got this pair of new pants. I love how the pockets have "leather" trim, love the slim cut, and love the color. Still office appropriate without being uptight and too serious. I love the Zara belt that he picked out himself too. Love the color, and the herringbone-esque texture.


And the shirt...it's slim cut, it has bold stripes, and I love the shocking pink lining on the collar and the pink thread for the button and holes. Adorbs!
It's all in the tiny little details. Love love love Playlord.

Too bad their women's collection isn't my cup of tea.

Baby M in Batik Shirt & His Subaru

Did he like his gift from Indo grandma?


Yes! He loves his ride.


Honk honk!


He especially like turning the wheels with his fingers...
Baby, you're doing it wrong!
