I got down to making a heart-shaped bokeh lens hood in the afternoon so naturally I roam to where the bright lights are to test it out.
Check, it works
Hmm, yay!

I have a feeling my lens isn’t awesome enough to do more than this but we’ll see what I can figure 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!

I didn’t eat all day so dinner had to be epic. Epic it was! We went to PS Cafe Harding because my brother’s a chef there and we wanted to try his specials!
My beetlejuice thigh-highs
Compliments from the chef oh! Fries with some awesome kind of cheese and I believe some truffle oil
I had the roasted rosemary lamb rack special, ugh so good! You know it’s good when you start cutting your meat into smaller and smaller pieces, in the hopes of prolonging the eating process.
Waiting for after-meal drinks
Playing around with cut-out paper, trying to recreate heart-shaped bokeh from scraps of receipts. Failed.
I didn’t manage to get proper shots, all of Dempsey was dark dark and dark. This chambray dress is from etsy and it came not too long ago, beetlejuice thigh-highs from Sock Dreams and vintage black boots.
Also! Don’t forget to participate in the giveaway that’s going on right now, it’s open to international readers as well!
I suck. I said I’d post more but a million things need attending to and so zee blog suffers! My toilets were flooded – the pipe was clogged, we’re half done with our Halloween costumes (hooray!!!), Indie is going to the vet tomorrow, I never have the right clothes for business meetings and this last one concerns you readers because there’s going to be a giveaway happening soon!
At sunset
Early morning
Some photos from the last 110 roll, these were taken at West Coast Park.
And off I go again!
This roll of 110 film was full of cats, both stray and ours. They are mostly night shots and so if you’re allergic to flash, you might want to click away! I’m so low on sleep and food but I’m going to walk to the supermarket to get a bunch of coriander. I think it would bring what I intend to cook for dinner, from just okay to maybe quite delicious. Okay I will.
Indie, at our old place
Fatboy
We let the cats out now but I’m such a worry wart and my friend made fun of that.
This is Panther, she hangs around the market and carpark and she likes playing dead a lot of the time. She doesn’t want to be friends with me though, I’ve been trying to charm her but she’s having none of it.
Hi! I’m Melly. I share photos of my life & my handcrafted goods here. I live in Singapore & currently shooting with an Olympus Pen-F.
