Kailan with mushrooms, drenched in oyster sauce. Gah, chinese is so hard to do! Couldn’t have done it without STUMPBO’s help via Twitter.

I am really bummed that the rest of the photos turned out way too dark! Even photoshop couldn’t save them. I had a couple more shots that I remembered were great, hahaha, would have been great. The girls and the greens around us made photo-taking so much more fun, SE-RIOUS! Anyway I should have known better than to risk it all on expired film. I had to do some severe reducing of noise and despeckling. My eyeballs are about to pop out now so g’night my friends.

Sarah’s Loft x Greenlaundry

A picnic! Yes I’ll say it again, we are having a picnic! And Sarah & I would like you, our readers, to come join us! Come with a friend, come with your dog, we really don’t mind so long as you have yourself a good time. The picnic’s at Botanic Gardens. All we ask of you is to drop either of us an email {hellothere[at]sarahs-loft[dot]com} or {melly[at]greenlaundry[dot]net} to let us know that you’ll be joining us, just so we prepare enough food for our tummies!!

P.S. Another set of exciting news coming right up! I’m doing my very own Chrismassy giveaway!

Sunday Out

Very early on Sunday morning (by my standards), I met Sarah to drop by Soon Lee to check out a new local label, Chalk. The incredible designer behind Chalk is Priscilla and I’ve known her since kindergarten through primary school! Her debut collection features girly dresses and some pieces ideal for office wear. Every piece is saccharine sweet and fun fun fun.

I really wanted the white dress in this photo but Sarah and I decided I would look like a tranny in it. I wish I was more of a lay-dy!

Here’s Priscilla in one of her own designs. Do go to her site and check out the entire collection! Or pop by Soon Lee, where her collection is available. {Hello hello to Sharon and Zann too!}

A cardigan from Soon Lee that both Sarah and I find cute

From Haji Lane, we made our way to CA California at Dempsey Hill.

Sarah’s unbelievably-real-looking headband

I had a Philly Beef Wrap

Because I took a photo of my outfit, I’m gonna shamelessly post it anyway. The dress is Laura Lees for Topshop, tights to hide my terrible bruises from floorball, vintage wingtips via ebay.

Lastly I want to welcome Sarah back to blogosphere! Her revamp is gorgeous and her photos inspiring as ever, go enjoy it!

Paper + Dove

Last night at 15 Minutes at Lasalle, we got to feel ten years younger; we were school kids in art class! Dove Go Fresh held a Soap Factory workshop where we cutglueddecorated our own Dove bottles.

Ashley & Jessica from MunkySuperStar

The art supplies came from Paper Market

The left one’s mine and Jessica’s masterpiece reads Smell Me!

Stephie making her final touches

Niki (awww)

There was this mushroom + arugula open face sandwich (not sure if it’s on the regular menu) that was so delicioussss. Which is what Stephie is eating in this photo. It was so well-seasoned, I was impressed and wanted to go on to devour the entire tray but decided to act like a lady.

I also learnt that I have huge nails

Jayden did rad things to his bottle but I marveled and forgot to take a photo of it, Nadnut and Pat Law
