I’ve come down with the flu over the weekend and i am not feeling tip top right now. As i was lying in bed, i suddenly had the idea to share some inspiring quotes with you all. It is such inspirations that reminds me of where i am now, how i got here, and i am grateful for everything that has made me who i am today. I hope you all find some meaning within these life quotes too, one way or the other. Happy Sunday peeps!!!

I know this post is late by a day but as i always say, better later than never right? So i just wanted to say a happy belated valentines day to all of you out there, whether you’re a singleton or with your beloved other half, I hope your Valentines day was filled with love, joy, kisses, and lots of happiness!!!
To add a bit more of fun into valentines day or any other day if you like, here are some sweet little things that you can do with your other half. Hoepfully this goes to show that sometimes you don’t need to do anything fancy or big to feel the love, as long as you got each other. And the best part is that you can do all of the following things below, whether you’re in a relationship or is as single as can be. Happy Valentines day everyone!!!
Perfume
Wear your favorite perfume and let the scent do it’s magic. I always believe a scent says a lot about a person and its has this power to bring out the confident, feminine, and sexual side of you. Just a quick breeze of a familiar perfume scene is enough to ignite certain memories from the past. It could be that first Chloe perfume that i got gifted a few years back for my birthday, and it’s been my fave ever since.
Macarons
I don’t know about you but i’m sure all the macaron fans out there will agree with me. There’s nothing where a box of lovely and colorful Laduree macarons that can’t help sweeten up a lady’s heart and her taste buds in an instant. A box of these lovely sweet treats is certainly to win many hearts away. If you are on a budget, you can also consider macarons from other brands or bakeries. There are some quite good ones out there if you really look.
Flowers
Whether you got another half or you’re single, flowers, such as roses, are a great way to brigthen your day. I love roses and they always make me smile. For the singletons like moi, go out and buy a single rose or a bouquet of roses, or any type of flowers that you like, it is entirely up to you. Not only will they bring out such warmth and beauty to your home, but you can also turn them into dried flowers and do a DIY project, such as putting them in a pretty frame and hang it.
Strawberries dipped in dark chocolate
Not so much of a flower person? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. Fresh and healthy strawberries dipped in devililicious dark chocolate is gonna make you want more. And eating dark chocolate has even proven to have health benefits, such as boosting your mood or feeling less stressed, when taken in moderation. So feel free and indulge in those bouquets of strawberries dipped chocolate without a guilt in the world, for a day or two at the most, hehe.
Valentines Nail Art
Getting your nails done in Valentines themed design is another way to bring out the love spirit in you. Bring out all the love colors, the hot pink and hot red is the way to do it. And if you fancy a bit of creativity, you can add hearts, lips, ribbons, or anything you want on your nails. It’s a day where you can be girlie without feeling out of place.
Receiving flowers 
If you’ve got that special other half, be sure to dress your best whilst you wait anxiously for that moment when your Mr. Right to turn up with a bouquet of your favorite flowers and gives you a passionate kiss. Once you go home, remember to put your lovely flowers into a lovely vase where they belong. The rest…well, i guess i don’t need to tell you what to do right?;)
Movie night
What other way to celebrate Valentines night then cuddling up with you other half and watching a romance comedy for a chilled night. This is for the budget conscious couples and singletons out there though, i have to warn. One of my faves sappy movie as a kid was “My Girl”. Whatever movie you fancy, make sure you prepare a box of tissue because we are bound to shed some tears.
Sweet treats
Baking your own dessert, such as cupcakes or cakes for Valentines day, is another way to express your love. Try to add more pink and red in the color scheme, and you can even add heart sprinkles or make your own heart paper name tags if you like. Of course, if you are not much of a baker, you can always turn to the safer and lazier option, go to a bakery that you’ve been wanting to visit for a long time and see what pretty gems awaits you there.
Beauty
There is no reason for when a lady wants to glam up and the same goes on this extra special day. Make that extra effort on Valentines day to make your Valentine’s heart jump a beat. Put on some shimmery or glossy lip gloss to add some tease to your smile. He will be ready to kiss those passionate lips of yours in no time. Most importantly, you will feel prettier from the inside and the outside. It is the smallest things, such as a lipgloss at times, which is all we need to feel a difference.
Creativity 
The expression of love can be in many forms, and one form that i enjoy is through words. Take out those lovely notebooks that have been in hiding and covered in dust, and write down a sweet poem or love quote that you remember or saw from somewhere. Writing such sweet words or even memories of the present and past is a way to keep the memories ever lasting.
Love
Last but not least, you have to remember the “love” word. Love is something that cannot be missing in any type of relationship, be it friendships, lovers, or families. Always remember to cherish your loved ones and embrace each moment that is given to you everyday. Enjoy some relaxing and quality time with your other half and try to find that happiness between the two of you, the happiness just like that very first moment you both laid eyes on each other.
May everyday be a Valentines day for you.
It’s the last day of November and with that, it’s the ending of another month as we enter the festive Christmas month of December. With most endings, i’m normally sadden by the thought that something is over but as always, I remind myself with ever ending there is a new beginning! It’s also a time for me to reflect on the past and look forward to what lies ahead.
Of course, I’m already looking forward to all the lovely things leading up to the Christmas seasons, such as sipping on my fave Starbucks gingerbread latte, wearing my warm brown suede boots, lazing in bed for a few more minutes to avoid the morning winter chills, writing Christmas cards to loved ones, buying christmas gifts to families and friends, eating chocolates like no care in the world, shopping for warm sweaters to keep me warm, and the list goes on.
Whatever you all get up to, I hope you leave behind a memorable November and have a joyous December with your loved ones. Keep warm everyone!!!

Street style is definitely one of the places where i get my style inspirations from and it always interests me to see what sort of trend is going on out in the real world. There is such beauty when you stare at that one person and notice every single detail of their styling.
Now i know there are many street style websites out there that tends to show just one person individually, and that got me thinking, why just one? Why not showcase the styles of two, three, or four people in one shot? As the saying goes, the more the merrier, right?
For this street style post, i would like to share street style in another light, where it brings inspiration, friendship, love, and laughter altogether into the picture with these fabulous people.
Hope you enjoy them and get inspired!

As we are fast approaching Mothers Day, 1 day to be exact, i couldn’t think of a better “Current Lust” post then about all the fabulous moms out there! Motherhood is a very special and personal experience to every women and surely, there is nothing more proud than being a mom!
I have the bestest mom that i can ever ask for in the world and i love her to bits and pieces. We have gone through our good and bad times and we have come a long way since then. Nowadays there is nothing i want more than to spend time with her when possible, and celebrating special holidays together. She is probably one of the few people that allows me to be myself where i can confront or get angry at her without judging me.
I still recall my teen years where i would always get into fights with her like a typical teenager due to endless reasons, such as passing my curfew, rushing me to do my home work, not buying me things that i want, etc. You know how it goes right?!!?!Despite all our history, we are each others best friend and i couldn’t ask for a better BFF than her. Mom, i loveeeeeeeeeee you and i wish you the best in health and life.
Hope you all have a happy and memorable mothers day!!!

Inspirations are everywhere around us, if we only open our eyes and look a bit closer. The simplest things in life such as families, my fave macaron desserts, a walk in the park, or just being able to wake up in the mornings next to a loved one and say a warm “good morning”, is already a very inspiring if not, happy moment for me.
We need to learn to appreciate life and understand that even the smallest things, can have an impact on our lives. It could be that last train at night that you caught to get home, those solo cafe visits where you go to clear your mind, or even just a phone call to your dearest friend to say a quick “Hello”. And very often so, it is these precious moments where we find bigger things in life, we find inspirations and happiness to keep us going and living, and believing.
I hope you will find or keep looking for your life long inspirations, no matter where you are, what you do, and who you are with. Never stop living and never stop smiling because you never know, there might just be that special someone watching you and falling for that sweet smile=)
Is there anything in life that inspires you?
So it’s finally Friday and I’ve come down with a damn nasty sore throat!!! So much for “Thank god it’s Friday” eh? I actually took a day off work todayand i guess i had some much needed sleep. Looks like i will be staying in and resting a lot over the weekend. Boooooooooo!!! Yes, sounds like a bummer weekend already.
Here are some inspiring and happy photos that i wanted to share with you all and i guess a reminder to myself to always be happy no matter what!!!:D There’s just so much going on in this busy world that we live in that we tend to forget the smallest things that matter so much more. Sometimes all we need to do is just slow down and appreciate a bit more on what this beautiful world has to offer in it’s simplest form. That’s where true happiness can be found, when you least expect it.
Anyhow, hope you guys have a happy Friday and awesome weekend ahead!!!!
