The Last of 2011!

Can’t believe it’s already the 2nd week of 2012!!! And CNY is juuuust coming right up in less than 2 weeks~

L managed to fly over on NYE and we check-in to MBS~

The view from our room. It was very last minute and therefore we couldn’t get any of the City View rooms.

We had TWG for dinner because I was craving for the scones with tea jelly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The scones tasted better at ION outlet and the tea jelly is still divine~ ❤

A kind friend helped me brought back these little devil sweets from London!

Oh how I miss you little babies!

Extremely happy on NYE!

Savouring my Rose macaron` ❤ ❤ ❤

Well, when i had both brands in Paris 2 years back, I favoured La Durée over Pierre Hermés. I kinda felt PH crust was overly soft. LD had a chewy bite.

But for now, I think I prefer Pierre Hermés. However, I’m still not a big fan of his experimental creations. The traditional flavours are my cup of tea!

Now, I wonder when will be my next encounter with these little sweeties!

MBS had made special arrangements for hotel guests to countdown at the Infinity Pool.

Just look at the crowd at 11:30pm!

It was a splendid night spent watching the beautiful fireworks popping just right in front of us! 🙂

Happy 2012 everyone!

May the New Year be filled with love & happiness everyday~ ❤ ❤ ❤

Shopping Mission!

How’s the long weekend coming along? Mine was a blast starting from Friday! Did lots of shopping and had tons of good food~ ❤

FashionFastForward sent us some awesome vouchers with awesome perks. If you’re the first 10 to use up all the vouchers, you will be rewarded with 10,000 F3 points!!! And do you know what that translates to? An awesome $400+ voucher~ *eyes open wide*

The promotion starts on the 4th and that happens to be Rina’s Birthday. What a perfect timing! Shopping spree on birthday~ ❤

If you are a F3 member and have yet to receive the vouchers, just pop by any outlet with your member card to collect them. 🙂

Our stint started at 10:30am with Topshop, followed by Miss Selfridge, Dorothy Perkins, Ben Sherman and back to Topshop. We managed to use up all the 8 vouchers at 1pm! Along the way, we were pretty worried as we saw some other girls carry MS and DP’s shopping bags while we were at our 1st stop. Thankfully, at our 2nd last stop Ben Sherman, the staff told us we still stand a chance be in Top 10. After making our purchase at BS, we rush off to Topshop again to use that very last voucher. Hehehe. We pray hard. *fingers crossed*

After 2+ hours of massive browsing, trying and walking, we settled at TWG for lunch. Been wanting to have tea there for the longest time ever but always had no chance to.

It was a friday afternoon and they were full house. (too many ‘tai-tai’s!) We had to wait for seats.

I opted for the lunch set while the girls chose Wagyu Burger.


Pan Seared Saddle of Lamb. The meat was just nice – tender and juicy. It went well with the potato pancake and sauteed spinach. It comes in 3 little portion which makes it more delicate. 😉


Wagyu Beef Burger accompanied with fries and fresh salad. The fries tasted like McDonald’s, in my opinion. The beef patty was normal.


Homemade Chestnut Entremet served with blackcurrant sauce infused with Earl Grey Tea. This chestnut sweetie didn’t impress me on the first bite but a few later. You can taste the light and aromatic sweetness of the chestnut, well-combined with the berries. ❤


We surprised the birthday girl with a mini heart-shaped cherry mousse. The staff were really nice to sing her a birthday liner too! 🙂

My full lunch set cost $35++ with a main, a dessert and a tea.

Food is reasonably good but limited in selection. The teas and desserts are definitely 2 thumbs up. Hopefully I will get to go back for tea some time soon! 😀

TWG Tea Salon & Boutique
ION Shopping Mall
2 Orchard Turn, #02 – 21

After the fulfilling lunch, we went on walking around Orchard.


<333 the girls.

Finally checked out the Smoky Palette from Make Up For Ever. I wanted to get it from Sephora US and after waiting for more than a month, Sephora emailed me saying it won’t be released. ahhhuh..

I was shocked when I saw the palette as it’s really tiny~ But the colors were so pretty! It’s retailing at $88 but the staff told me an Indonesian lady bought all of the 10 pcs that was left. Oh well, it’s either I travel to MBS outlet or probably get it from KL? Anyone going soon?


2-tone top – BKK chatuchak
candy skinny belt – oh! poupeé
maxi skirt – random shop
metal cuff – H&M 


Amy bought this yellow circle stickers and I started drawing silly smiley faces on them! Amy says the one on top right looks “pa-jiao”. LOL.

Here’s my loots!

Scooter Tshirt from Ben Sherman –  Lace Dress, Wool Shorts, Accessories from Topshop, Diamond Design Tights from Dorothy Perkins. I also got a Yankee Candle diffuser from Takashimaya.

Have I told you how much I looooooveeeee Yankee Candles!? 😀 My favourite scent is Mistletoe and I got the diffuser as they didn’t have the candle ones. My room smells sooooo good now~
