What I got for christmas 2013

Some of the things I got for christmas 

1. Long champ Handbag: Le pliage in Navy blue
   I was ecstatic when I saw that I got it, I have been asking it for so long and I finally got it! 
2. Viva La Juicy Nior
   This perfume smells AMAZING, well all of the viva la juciy perfumes smell amazing, well done juicy.
3. Ciate Advent calendar 
   

   I know that you're supposed to get it before christmas, but I didn't mind. All the mini nail polishes in there were gorgeous!
4. The five people you meet in heaven by Mitch Albom
   

   Mitch Albom is one of my favourite authors, his books arent just stories they make you really think about it, which I why I love his books so much, my favourite book from him  is The time keeper I definitely recommend it to everyone.
5. Yankee Candle: Merry Marshmallow 
   

   If you all didn't know I have an obsession with candles, I love burning them in my room because it makes my room smells so nice. I tried burning the Merry Marshmallow and it my room literally smells like marsh mallows.
6. Revlon Lipstick (830 Rich girl red) 
   

   I got this from my friend and other beauty products, I absolutely love this shade! wore this for the christmas dinner. 
7. Kate spade Phone case
   

   If you know me you would know that I love kate spade, so I was overjoyed when I saw I got this. Also, I needed a new phone case so that was perfect!
8. NYX blush in Peach
   

   This was the other present I got from my friend, and the shade is so lovely, I don't any peach shaded beauty products, so I love having something new to my collection.
9. Go pro 3+ black edition
   

   You're probably thinking, why did I get this and wondering if I play "extreme sports" or not. Well recently I have been filming a lot of videos of different events and my everyday life and editing it, and it's just a hobby and something I enjoy doing. I also ski every year,  and my family does so I would use this when I go skiing. I will probably post one of my videos once on here maybe. This was one of the biggest gift I got for christmas this year, so I was over the moon when I saw it. 
10. Watercolour + paintbrush set 
    

    I got this lovely watercolour set from my cousins, I was so happy because sometimes in my free time I try to draw or paint, and I didn't have any water colour so the addition to the art collection is great!
11. H&M bracelets 
    

    This was part of the stocking, It was a few bracelets that my mum bought me, all of it was so pretty.
12. Starbucks Christmas mug
    

    This was actually one of my favourite present, the mug is so cute! it's not too much but the simpler the better, the handle is a pattern of a candy cane, how cute is that! 

I am so grateful for everything I got, and I hope all of you had a great christmas with your family, Merry Late christmas everyone!

How to make Nutella hot chocolate

Since it's winter season for rest of the world except for south east asia. who doesn't love a perfect cup of hot chocolate or any hot drink. however, why not twist it around and try something new, if you like Nutella you would love this Nutella hot chocolate. I know this isn't a fashion post, but it's the christmas season so why not, and yes I have a mug about calorie, no shame :3

Ingredients: 

• Nutella 1 tbsp or 2 tbsp
• Cinnamon 
• 1 cup of milk
• whip cream 
• Saucepan
• whisk

1. First of all heat up your stove, and wait for about 5 minutes for it to heat up. Then put the Saucepan on top.
2. Pour the 1 cup of milk into the Saucepan (if you're making this for more than 1 person add 1 or 2 more cups of milk). 
3. While waiting for the milk to heat up, add 1 tbsp of Nutella into the saucepan (If you want a stronger taste add another tbsp) 
4. Whisk the milk and the Nutella together until it blends and makes a brown colour just like hot chocolate. 
5. Add a pinch of Cinnamon into the Nutella hot chocolate, and blend it together.
6. Turn of your stove, and pour the Nutella hot chocolate into your mug. 
7. To finish it off put whip-cream on the top of the Nutella hot chocolate and sprinkle the Cinnamon right on the top.

Tell me if you try it out! What do you think? should I do more posts like this?

BKK Round 1

So as you can all see the title of the post is 'BKK' yes I am in BKK right now but by the time you're all reading this I'll be back in Singapore. I have been incredibly busy seeing friends and family, so I didn't have time to blog at all. However, now I have some free time before I go to bed. If you didn't know I am thai and I recently moved from Bangkok to Singapore, some of you might think that it's not a big deal, but it was a HUGE deal to me, probably the worst news of 2013 at the time, but now I've changed and its different. I am starting to like singapore, with all the new friends I've made, and how easy it is to get around (It's impossible to get anywhere in Bangkok because the traffic is the worse and it's not as safe as Singapore ).  I will be in Bangkok again this month, because I am coming back again for new year yay. 

Dinner at Greyhound (if you look closely, half of my face is on the left side) 

I have had such a great time here in Bangkok, I have always loved this city, and it's character. Also, on how it is so loud and busy all the time, I've learned to love it. I got the chance to visit my old school, friends and family. 

Camwhoring sesh (me in the middle)

Seeing my family was so nice, the last time I saw them was probably since the summer which was quite a while away. It was a great day overall catching up with everyone, and especially seeing my grandparents. So before I went to see them I was preparing for all the questions on how singapore is or if I like singapore better than Bangkok. Well obviously both cities are different in their own ways. A long day of eating and talking. It was the most chillest (is that a word?.. I don't know :3) day ever. However I was extremely excited to see all my friends, some of them I haven't seen since the summer, like one of my best friends who went to boarding school, so it was so nice to catch up with everyone. I also got to give the christmas presents to all my friends in Bangkok, after three days of intense christmas shopping. That day was also such a fun day, got to see all my friends, had delicious dinner, and had a sleepover with one of my best friends who I haven't seen in 5 months, and of course whats a sleepover without watching a chick flick. However, since my friend just came back she was extremely tired and fell asleep at 8... but then I fell asleep too. Now for my last full day in Bangkok, it was also the chillest (sorry I had to) day. Had Japanese food (favourite food of all time) and watched frozen, which was the cutest movie ever, the songs were such happy songs, the movie was just uplifting, and just made you feel happy (Well done disney). 

Just to remind all of you it's christmas soon!!! I am so excited literally my favourite time of the year. So I now have an excuse to have my Nutella hot chocolate (best thing ever), If you all of you want to see the recipe on how to make it tell me, and I'll be sure to write a post about it. Well, thats all for now, Thank you for reading!

How are your winter holidays?

Tory Burch Spring 2014 Ready-to-Wear Collection

Tory burch's Spring 2014 Ready-to-Wear Collection really caught my eye, the hint of green, and light coloured outfits through out the runway. It is classic and simple, which makes more people want to buy the clothing. My favourite outfit is the middle outfit. I adore the trousers, the green checkered pattern with and white lining on the side. The best part of the outfit is the purse, the flower pattern really emphasises the "nature" point of the outfit. On the other hand, the outfit on the right, has a hint of contrast to the middle outfit, the middle outift has a hint of white and different colours that probably represents 'nature', but the right outfit, has only one colour and one colour only, white. In my opinion, white is a very elegant colour, it gives the feeling softness and quiteness. Which is basically the definition of elegance (I think).  

I remember when I was 13 and my mum started to buy from tory burch and I always ask her if I can have it but she would always say no, which is what you're supposed to say when your 13 year old daughter asks you if she can have a designer hand bag. Now back to the topic of the runway. I would definitely wear all of the outfits from tory burch, it is one of my favourite designer brands, maybe because it's not the most expensive and that I'm only a teenager. 

I absolutely love every single outfit in this photo, the outfits all can fit a different category. The left outfit can be worn to a gala, or a day time event, or even shopping, however it is more on the posh side than casual. Also my favourite dress out of the whole collection. The outfit in the middle is more on the casual side in my opinion, it can be worn any day. The outfit on the right seems to be very formal, can be worn to meetings, work, or even a formal dinner, definitely another favourite outfit in the collection. Also, of course I'm not going to miss out on the shoes, I have seen a pattern that most of the shoes are either white or a bronze colour, which is a great pair to match the outfit. e.g. the middle outfit is all white and is not the brightest outfit, so a pop of silver shoes to match with really makes a statement. 

So I did say that I was going to try to post a blog post everyday, but I am so busy christmas shopping, that by the time I come home I am extremely tired, I will try to post as often each week. however, by the time all of you are reading this I will probably be in Bangkok, visiting family and friends (I'm thai if you didn't know that) so keep visiting my blog for a travelogues, and ootd's with my friends in Bangkok. 

What is your favourite outfit of the collection?

The "LA look" via instagram & youtube

I know right now its december and its the winter season, but it's summer weather all year here, so read this post as if it's summer soon for all of you and you could take ideas off this, but if it's summer all year for you too then great!

I have been noticing a lot lately about the "LA look" the skater skirts, with doc martens and muscle tanks. I honestly love the look. It can be casual, formal and especially made for a more hotter climate. Which is good for me cause I live in a country thats 40 degrees Celsius everyday. However, Most of the looks I've seen is from Instagram and youtube. I am obsessed with youtube I probably subscribe to over 200 people. My favourites are the beauty guru's like Macbarbie07(Bethany Mota) (I met her :3) or stilababe09 (Meredith Foster). They give me lots of ideas for makeup, fashion and products that I might essentially like, and of course they live in California. The youtuber that has a strong "LA look" is Alexa Losey (smokeypinkleopard). She probably lives in boots, because all of her lookbook videos are basically her in boots all the time, I love it! heres examples of her videos.

Now on to Instgram. You all probably know this person, Kylie Jenner. She is the ultimate LA girl her style is spot on, on what I think the "LA look". Also, it could be because she was brought up in LA her whole life and as we all know she caught up to the style. Her Instagram photos are so nice, some of them don't even look like she took it from her iphone because the photos are so clear and HD. I have been noticing that she uses Flannel shirts as an accessory, that she ties around her waist, which I think is a great idea and also what every other LA girl wears :3 Here are some photos from her Instagram that shows her 'style'

As you can see with these pictures her style is absolutely gorgeous! elegant in some photos and casual in the others. Well those are the perks of being a Kardasian (well jenner but you know same thing)  and having Kim, Kourtney and Khloe as your sisters. Also, shorts are essential where I live, wearing long trousers in singapore will probably make you melt because its so terribly hot.

To end on a light note, have a nice holiday everyone!

What do you think about the "LA style"?
