Sunny and Gloomy

Aloha humans!
As promise in yesterday post (and my stressful tutorial classes haven't start),
I am posting my outfit that I wore to college today.
I called it 'Sunny and Gloomy' because the weather here is so crazy.
Sunny in the morning and all of the sudden, it rains like cray.

I wore a spaghetti strap jumpsuit with black and white stripes and ethnic patterns,
paired with a thin denim shirt.
Like I said,
the weather was crazy hot in the morning,
so I chose spaghetti strap jumpsuit.
Who knew, it rained in the afternoon.

I also accessorized with an arrow-headed bangle and an golden elephant charm bracelet.
Just to keep things simple.

A front view of my outfit.
I tied the denim shirt at my waist, creating an illusion that I have curve y'all~

A side view of my outfit and this is what I posted on my Instagram account.
The wall is my favourite tripod. 

Jumpsuit : Cotton On || Denim shirt : Mirrocle, Fahrenheit 88, KL || Silver arrow-headed bangle : Cotton On || Golden elephant charm bracelet : Factorie

Beauty: Then and Now - In the eyes of Cut Video

Ola humans!
Class has officially started and it means I have to battle for my assignments while enjoying the days of being a student.
This is my last semester in my final year of degree.
I'm kind of like in a situation that I want/don't want my semester ends quickly.
I'm not ready to step out to the society and work for the rest of my life, DESPITE... I LOVE MONEY.

Rolling in a pile of cash is my dream/ambition.
Just let me dwell in those filthy money.

So today I came across CUT Video on YouTube and I instantly got suck into their universe.
Cut Video has many types of uploads that discuss about different subjects, ex:
'One word' - Describe a given topic in just one word;
'Sexy Charades' - Some insane sex moves and couples just act it (fully on clothes, of course);
'Asian Food vs Asian People' - You get the idea;
 some a lot more interesting topics..... and finally,
 it's the '100 Years Of...'  which is my FAV.

So far, they have 5 episodes of '100 Years Of...' and I like every bit of it.
It is a time lapse about the evolution of beauty in different countries throughout the century.
I really like that they did deep research about the essence of beauty in different decades and it actually teaches people nowadays about the beauty transformation from the olden days until today.
You can see every detail is carefully plot and I think it inspires people to know more about fashion.
Might even bring back some of the trend in the past!

My Fav is definitely Episode 4 - Korea. 

The fact that split the evolution into North and South Korea is utterly GENIUS.
I bet most of the people in this world are just curious what is happening in North Korea right now.
It's so mysterious, like smoke and mirror all over it.

I have class at tomorrow 10 AM (GMT +8) so, good night and I'll post again as soon as tomorrow.

With love,

MET Gala 2015

I baked chocolate chip cupcakes with chocolate ganache for my mom yesterday.
She ate it today and said......

"NOT NICE EH."

My heart broke.

She said the cake is too hard.
I actually agree on that.
I shall improve by baking more.
Just...... not now...
CUZ CLASS STARTS TOMORROW.

Anyway....
MET GALA 2015 is officially over and I am glad because part of it is a DISASTER.
The theme for this year is 'China: Through the looking glass' and I personally think some of the invited stars didn't really get the point of China.
To me,
China is a nation that is burst with rich culture, innovation, and histories.
There are many, many ways to bring out the Chinese identity.:
like the colours, symbols, patterns, food, and their language.
Tradition or the modern side of China is optional (I prefer the balance between both).
Unfortunately, some of the celebrities missed it. 
Probably because they didn't have any Pokeballs or their stylists hate them very, very much.

I love this so, so, so much!!!!!! (despite it ruled 9GAG)
On fleek and on point!
Reminds me of the arrogant and the confident of an emperor/empress.
Bravoooooo~

Justin Bieber in Balmain

A suit but also a not-so-boring-suit.
Unlike the tux like most of the male celebs wore,
JB suit is really stood out.
The golden embroidery dragon and the chang-shan collar + design = 200% perfection.
Modern and suits him well.

Jessica Hart in Valentino

Out of the celebs that dressed in red,
Miss Hart here is one of them that aced it.
As a person that watch shit loads of Chinese drama and movies,
no one carries Ba-gua pattern in such elegance and effortless.
Because usually it looks like this,

The colour beige and cranes is a staple living creature that you can constantly see in Chinese dramas that took place in the olden days.
Now THIS is the balance that I'm looking for.
Simple yet elegant. 

Fan Bingbing in Christopher Bu

S L A Y E D.
A really exquisite piece and she owned it without breaking a sweat.
It's like this gown is tailored for her and ONLY her.
The overall concept of this gown is 'The Forbidden City'.
The colours, patterns embroider on the emerald cape and the golden shimmery dress is just stunnng.
Fan Bingbing + Christopher Bu = Dream Team/ Red Carpet Goal/ Show-stopper.

Emily Blunt in Prada

I really like the colour combination of this piece by Prada.
It matches well with Emily Blunt's dewy white skin.
Combining sky blue and navy blue with white floral embroideries.
Light and simply beautiful.

Another amazing piece with fine embroideries of white cranes and plum flowers.
It brings out the graceful atmosphere in the Chinese poems, which has a strong cultural sense to me.
Now THIS is what I call 'Chinese.'

Anyway,
before I btchin' bout' my financial status and my temporary shitty class schedule,
I wanna share (ain't btchin ' anymore) a lil taste of my music choice.
I'm not a big fan of indie music.
I literally know nothing about indie music.
It's just not my thang although there are more and more friends of mine are humming indie songs around me.
I'm a contemporary R&B kind of person.
I like beats, hip hop, pop, rap and all these things mash together, blend into smooth rhythms with hot lyrics, soulful vocal and incredibly sexy mood/atmosphere.
These songs make me relax, got me into great mood for the entire day.
My favs range from legends like MJ, Babyface, Boyz II Men to new bloods like Chris Brown, Omarion, August Alsina, Jeremih, Jay Park, AOMG crew, Tinashe and etc.
Need to dig out more of them singers.
Now then I realize why am I so addicted to the show Empire.

Of course I listen to other music genre,
I like rock n roll although it's dying (with all due respect),
I like country music like Rascal Flatts because they are the first ever country band that hits me so hard that I still remember their songs.
Maybe I'll make a list of my favourite songs in my next post.
I just hope I can still remember when I'm writing next post.

So here's some of the contemp R&B songs that I recently fall in deep love with.
Hope people who are reading this can play it and enjoy for the rest of your day.

Tinashe - 2 On ft. SchoolBoy Q

Omarion - Post to be ft. Chris Brown & Jhene Aiko 

DJ Khaled - Hold you down ft. Chris Brown, August Alsina, Future, & Jeremih

(OMG Chris Brown, August ALsina and Jeremih should just collab and produce an album TOGETHER)

PS: Is DJ Khaled serious about the "say my name" thing? XD

Jay Park - Sex Trip 

(I keep singing this song to my BF and he flushed like cray HAHAHA)
