HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE: FOR HIM

HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE: FOR HIM



When it comes to Christmas shopping, nothing makes me feel more excited than buying gifts for my loved ones. Besides shopping for my mom, sister in law and my nephew, I love buying gifts for the men in the family: my boyfriend, brother, and daddy. It's fun shopping for them, but it's challenging too. I have four important men in my life that I'd love to pamper them so much. But, every time I ask them "What do you want me to buy for you", I always end up asking myself the same question: "What should I buy?", simply because I receive pretty much the same answer, just in different ways. My hero daddy who always says: "I don't need anything", my boyfriend who tells me "I already have everything I need", and my dearest manager who always tells me not to buy him anything. The only person that is very easy to buy a gift for is my brother, as he likes anything I buy. 

This year, I've found a solution. Instead of asking them questions, I took a closer and detailed look at all the gift options available, category by category. It's actually not as hard as I thought. There are plenty of great gifts out there for the men we love. I've already picked out some cool gifts and I can't wait to give it to them. 

Have you found any gift for the men in your life yet? If you haven't, I have here some gifts ideas. I'm sure they'll love it. Have a look! 


1. DSQUARED2 polka dot bow tie
2. Rayban Wayfarer sunglasses
3. Alexander McQueen skull jaquard silk tie
4. Ralph Lauren dress belt- Currently on sale
5. Hugo Boss shave lotion
6. Theory stationery pocket diary
7. Movado museum watch
8. Paul Smith football cufflinks
9. Paul Smith leather briefcase (sold out)- Currently, this one from Marc by Marc Jacobs is on sale
10. PS by Paul Smith Aldrich High Shine Derby Shoes

{CRYSTAL'S CLOSET}: TURQUOISE BLUE

{CRYSTAL'S CLOSET}: TURQUOISE BLUE



To continue with the long overdue Crystal's Closet series that I mentioned in the previous post, here is another story, the Turquoise Blue, that I was supposed to share with you. This beautiful A-line turquoise dress from BYSI landed in my closet quite a long time ago, but it has never had a chance to make an official appearance on my blog before. On my Instagram, you've probably seen it once here recently. 

These photos were taken after I came back from New York. Having to catch up with so much outstanding work while I was away made me a little bit stressed out. I needed something bright and refreshing to help me stay awake to fight with the jetlag during the day. At the same time, I wanted to wear a shade of blue (watercolor) to recharge and rejuvenate myself. 

I heard this turquoise blue dress scream out my name while I was looking for what to wear. 20 minutes later, I was already walking on the road looking like this. Nobody could tell how tired and sleepy I was that day. I guess, they paid more attention to my hair and my dress than my face, which is fine. I mean, how to blame them when not every day you can see somebody whose hair and clothes are the exact same color like that? At least, not for the next 12 months, even if I wear this dress again, I don't think I will be going back to turquoise hair just yet. 

My hair is currently blonde now, and I'm kind of loving it.







Thank you so much for reading!

{CRYSTAL'S CLOSET}: PASTEL DREAM

{CRYSTAL'S CLOSET}: PASTEL DREAM



Time flies so fast. There is only one month left, and we are going to end 2014. How has December been treating you so far? I'm always so excited when December comes, not only because it's the best time to shop, but also it's the best time to reflect and to celebrate. There are many wonderful things happened to me in 2014, and I can't wait to share with you. But, I'm going to reserve them for a flashback blog entry at the end of the year as usual. For now, please allow me to share with you some of my long overdue blog posts that I was supposed to publish a few months ago. I was so busy with my New York trip, my first collaboration with Porsche Design, my birthday celebration, holiday gift guide, Black Friday, and Cyber MondayI didn't have time to publish all the outfit photos I had. I'm not complaining. In fact, I love being busy, and I'm so grateful for all the opportunities given. But, I feel something missing if I don't write about the usual Crystal's Closet blog entry, especially when I get to wear this beautiful Three Floor Citi Lights dress (Other color here).

This pastel color-blocked outfit was shot at the end of July (on Singapore Blog Award ceremony day), by my dearest manager. We drove to a few different locations, shot hundreds of photos to get a few ideal images that can tell you exactly how this romantic dress made me feel. It was Love at first sight when I saw it on the website. Endless pleats on the soft material give an incredible amount of volume, while the cutout details provide a flirty and sexy touch. This dress unleashes the dancer in me.  I feel like dancing whenever I put it on. The empty road became my dance floor. No neon light, no audience needed. Just me with my biggest childhood's dream: Dancing. 

Thank you so much for reading! I hope this Pastel Dream post is worth the wait.
