OUTFIT | Something Borrowed, Something Colorful

Last sunday I went to Schiphol airport to say goodbye to my sisters.

Lieu and Mai are going to New York city for a few days, wish I could go with them to this amazing city.. but work is calling for me.

I'm wearing another colorful outfit.

I cannot get enough of all the colorful pieces in my wardrobe.

Borrowed this beautiful cardigan from Kamsing, he doesn't know it until he will read this and see it here..

Have an amazing week.

OUTFIT | Search For Orange

Last week in London I was looking for this orange shirt in every Zara store I could find, but with no luck.

Sold out everywhere...

This week Kamsing surprised me with a phone call from Amsterdam.

He told me that I could stop searching for orange, because he found the shirt in the Zara store in Amsterdam.

He managed to get the last piece in the whole store...

Amazing how he surprised me!

P.S. You have till monday 12p.m. to enter my Asos anniversary giveaway, good luck!

OUTFIT | Colorful Wardrobe

This morning I was looking outside my window and it seems like spring.

A beautiful blue sky and I couldn't spot any clouds in the air.

There was only one thing when I took a step outside, that makes me realize winter is not over yet.

Yes the cold, the very cold winter breeze...

I couldn't wait for spring to combine two colorful things.

So today I took the challenge to mix and match pink with peach.

Two beautiful colors that even even looked better matched together.

OUTFIT | Bright Red Color

Lately I'm so into bright colors.

This time I'm wearing some of my new spring items.

I cannot wait till the weather is better and wear this outfit without the jacket and scarf.

But for now I have too...

Enjoy your sunday!

A morning at Marina - Skywatch Friday

The Madras University in the background..Yes the beach is dirty, but as I went walking, I saw that the rubbish was being sucked out by a machine..However it would have helped if people are more conscious when they litter the place

The lighthouse in the fog, while some of the stalls are yet to be opened . Most of these stalls contribute to the dirt around the beach

Shoot the balloon..funny to see the stall empty without all the balloons..yes, the sands are still covered with rubbish

For brilliant skies around the world, visit Skywatch every Friday

Birding in Goa - Woolly necked stork

Spotted a pair of woolly necked storks in Goa recently when we went on the boat safari. Although I had seen them earlier in Kabini, this was the first time I was seeing them this close

TRAVEL | London Love: Be mine?!

Just back from a surprise getaway to London with Kamsing.
London is one of our favorite city in Europe.
We spend three days non-stop in the shopping streets, luckily Kamsing loves shopping as well.
It was also a non-stop delicious food parade for breakfast, lunch, dinner and some snacks in between...
..
Here are some photos of sweet comfort food and a preview of what's new in my closet for this spring!
Be mine?!

Where would you like to be this Monday ?

Would you like to be here this Monday ?

I was at Sira lake yesterday and was mesmerized by the clear blue of the waters . Bordered by an old fort built by the Nayaks, which is in ruins today, Sira was once a province of the Mughal dynasty and the town was its capital.
