#JamesnMaybel: How we spent our anniversary last month
I am not the super sweet girlfriend and I prefer celebrations to be as simple as possible. My other half, on the other hand, prefers an eventful day. He came to looked for me after my event at 12pm and brought me over to Arteastiq for Art Jamming. It was a new experience for us because that was our first time there. My first thought was “I can’t even draw properly, how can I paint properly?” and true enough, my art was a lousy piece. HAHAHA. I think we looked like those characters in the Hao Gong Ming textbooks. James could draw and paint well. He told me he could…

Staycation Review: Oasia Hotel Downtown Review
Oasia Hotel Downtown has a interesting concept that we really love. Even though we are right smack in the middle of the city, it felt as though we were in a resort. There are two check-in lobbies with one for the normal rooms and the other for Club rooms. We stayed at their Club rooms for the weekend. If you need a getaway from the buzzing Singapore life, I suggest you to do a staycation at Oasia Hotel Downtown because it can really make you feel like you are on a holiday. “Set against an urban landscape of concrete, steel and glass, Oasia Hotel Downtown stands out with a unique…

Also do check out the full range of 100 Urban Decay 100 Vice Lipsticks retailing at $29 each. There are…

Shop: Jamco Optical
We all have that one optical shop that we’d always go back to. I used to go back to the same one until I started to doll myself up. That’s when I went around looking for cute frames and in-trend sunglasses. After a sponsorship with JAMCO Optical Co 2 years ago, he is the only optical shop that I have been going back to for both shades and glasses. They are located at Katong Shopping Centre – a lot may feel that the shopping centre is an old place. But old means gold. You will be very surprised by the variety of brands JAMCO carries from Dior, Rayban, Oliver Peoples,…

Review of Scalp Treatment by Chez Vous Hair Salon
As some of you guys have already noticed, I have changed salon! As much as I do miss the last one, I certainly feel privileged working with this extremely underrated Luxury Hair Salon in Singapore : Chez Vous Hair Salon. Located in the heart of Orchard Road (Ngee Ann City, #05-05), this at least 2 decade old salon does not look anywhere near ancient. In fact, it is looking ever more stunning as time flies which only reflect how well they fare through times. Exterior of Salon If not for this intriguing display wall of hair products & brightly coloured hands, I would have mistaken it for a chic-looking café? You must be wondering…
