Everyday I’m instagram-ing @theladiesaffair.
I am loving the splash of colour with the bright coloured (and heavy) statement necklace against my neon top and cashmere pullover.
In the last picture, I was standing next to Nicholas, who (without planning to) wore Zara green pants and his beaten up nike dunks. I’d say beaten up shoes are so perfect for rainy weather!!
And that stack of magazines? They are part of work but I’m loving it.

This plaid blouse is an oldie (bought it several years ago) but goodie. It is surprisingly in great condition and perfect for lazy Sundays…the pair of waxed skinnies from Zara is on heavy rotation at the moment. I love the comfort and zipper details on it. I wish I had gotten it in burgundy as well!!
I’m headed for the land of a thousand smiles (Bangkok) for a vacation this week and the weather/temperature forecast spells for shorts and tee attire. I had intended to travel light but after looking at my packing list, it seems otherwise! It would be my first time visiting Bangkok so I’m definitely excited and looking forward to taking a break from work, shopping and feasting on tom yum goodness and Thai delicacies in general.
Now, back to packing…and hopefully lighter.

It’s been floral, bright colours and neon overload this Spring but I absolutely love it!
I think I haven’t seen any clothing not covered in florals this season. Pants, skirts, shirts, jackets, shorts, scarfs…
Time to have fun mixing colours, textures and prints!

I’m wearing checks on checks in the first two pictures:
Muji gingham shirt, Zara tweed skirt (as seen here), Topshop suede slipper & Louis Vuitton “Speedy”
The above pictures paint one of the most chilled-out Friday in February 2012 on Instagram. If you’d like, follow me @theladiesaffair!
This year has been so abundantly good and on a COMPLETE sidetrack, I’ve realised that there are no secrets to ”achieving happiness” nor 7 steps to be a happier person that actually works. To me, learning to be content and being grateful+thankful to Jesus for all He has blessed me with makes me one happy-go-blessed girl.
So, what’s your secret to happiness? I would like to know!

These black & white photos were shot on film and they took weeks before I could share them with you!
Nicholas and I have been experimenting with shooting on film, developing negatives and processing the photos by ourselves, without the help of a photo lab.
And now, we are working on a secret project which I’d share about as soon as its completed. It’s heartening to know that Jesus has already provided the grace to bring our dreams to reality, but hey! we are SO happy executing the plans and visions He first gave us!
Stay connected.

I’ve been wearing my waxed skinny pants from Zara alot lately and I hope to give it a rest once I hit the stores (can’t wait for SS12 collections to be launched!) SS12 is definitely the season I’ve been looking forward to since it’s the most relevant and wearable in this hot & humid climate.
On another note, pastels (esp. mint) and other neon colours will be my staple this season and I can’t wait to wear the colours and flowers.
I say it’s time for a wardrobe refresh!!

I think I have been in love with everything Proenza Schouler from the ready to wear to the accessories (oh! the accessories!!). I got excited about the PS1 and the mydriad of colours many moons ago and it is probably the bag I’m lusting after the most because it fits my personality. It is the bag that marries form and function. The most practical thing about this bag is that it is relatively lightweight. I could go on about how I can fit everything I need to fit in a medium sized PS1 and not look like a bag lady.
Problem is, I cannot decide on which colour to get (black or citron or both?!) and I’m waiting to see if everyone else is carrying the bag after six months post launch.
And now, I’m equally smitten with the PS11 clutch colour block in citron and the PS1 small zip wallet…and the list never ends does it? Yikes.

Christmas is wayyy over but Chinese New Year and another long weekend beckons. I rejoice!
I wish time would rewind and Christmas 2011 would unravel slowly this time, again.

This is pretty much the mid week in pictures.
From top: On my way to dinner destination with Nicholas, Squid ink and chicken pasta and Salmon pizza at our favourite joint for decent food and a quiet place to chill, playing with textures (my new calfskin bag vis-a-vis porter pouch), quick outfit shot after a 4 hour visit to the salon!
I coloured my hair on Thursday and I’m so pleased with the turnout of the ombre/dip dye! This is how it turned out!

I’m finally back from a long vacation (pictures soon!) and a much needed break from work and being non stop busy. I’m pretty excited about 2012 and I know it will be a even more fruitful and amazing journey just because Jesus loves me so. And amongst many things, I’m thankful for you, my readers! Thank you for checking this humble blog of mine.
This year shall be the year of unceasing fruitfulness! To kick off the new year, I decided to wear a bright outfit!

I'm the girl whom Jesus loves and the girl who loves fashion and photography.
I believe that clothes doesn't make the woman, but the woman makes the clothes work.
