{CRYSTAL'S CLOSET}: PURITY

{CRYSTAL'S CLOSET}: PURITY



It was one of the very rare days I suddenly had the urge to be in all white-on-white ensemble, even with matching colored accessories, except for the red Love Moschino handbag as the only highlight. Surprisingly, this head-to-toe snowy look caught more attention than any colored outfit that I've worn before, including this striking Neon Is The New Black outfit. 

I came to office; everyone looked at me. I walked down the street; so many people stared at me from the top to bottom. They made me feel like "Did I do anything wrong or offend anyone here?." But my worry didn't stay long as the crisp, clean, and pure outfit quickly gave me the confidence to walk my way and to be different. It made me feel good about being a spot of white among thousands of colorful colors on the street, a small piece of purity at a crowded place, in a complex world. 

Strangely, the all-white look always makes me feel like I'm an angel whenever I  put it on. A pure and innocent angel that has the power to motivate and influence people to stay away from negativity in their lives, to live happily without complicating things. I truly believe that we are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. As long as we purify our mind, a happy life will follow. 

Now, the question is: How pure is your mind?











Thank you so much for reading!

{CRYSTAL'S CLOSET}: PRETTY IN PURPLE

{CRYSTAL'S CLOSET}: PRETTY IN PURPLE



Every time wearing this purple midi skirt, I always think of the song "Pretty Woman", especially whenever I walk down the street. It's strange and funny how our mind works (my mind, to be accurate). I don't know if you have ever experienced the same thing, but having a beautiful song playing in our head, while walking down the street in a beautiful outfit, feels pretty awesome. It's like a confidence booster or something.

Possibly, this midi skirt is the chief cause that makes me feel that way. The romantic purple color, A-line shape in shiny silk material, how not to feel pretty in such a unique wardrobe staple?

I wore this skirt to work on Monday and to attend one of the events on Saturday. I loved this skirt so much, I just had to wear it twice in a week. Because this skirt was already quite voluminous at the bottom, I wanted to give it a balance by pairing it with a fitting black lace top. I absolutely adored the transparent back of this blouse that gave just the right amount of sensuality and desirability to the wearer. Once the outfit was set, choosing the right shoes and accessories was just a piece of cake.

It will not take much effort to look glamourous if you choose to wear a statement skirt like this, I guarantee.

WEEKEND WITH HAVAIANAS

WEEKEND WITH HAVAIANAS



My weekends are normally filled with a bunch of activities: photo shooting, blogging, meeting people or attending the events. Once in a while, whenever I have a chance to get away from all of these, to have some time for myself, I always feel so appreciated. Last month, the weekend during Easter was an example. No blogging, no work (except for taking these gorgeous photos for this blog entry), I spent my 2-day holiday walking around the beach, watching the beautiful sunset over the sea, eating lots of delicious foods with my 2 perfect beach partners: K. K & Havaianas.

*Read till the end to find out how to win a pair of Havaianas for yourself too.


Thank to FlopStore Singapore for sending me these 2 lovely pairs of Havaianas. To be completely honest, I've never paid any attention to flip flops, as I thought, they were the least important items to think about when it came to packing for a holiday. I could just grab them at any local beach store nearby for like $3. Those cheap flip flops with the bad quality material always ended up killing my feet after 15minutes walking. They gave me a blister in between my toes, broke my skin, left some ugly marks on my feet. It was such a torture.

I was so reluctant to wear flip flops to walk around on that day, but I decided to give Havaianas flip flops a try because they are Havaianas. Besides, they look much more colorful and prettier than those boring black flip flops that I wore before. Then, I started thinking about how to look chic and comfortable at the beach.


I didn't think much about the color coordination when choosing what to wear, but somehow, Havaianas flips lop matched perfectly with what I initially planned on wearing: yellow colored high-low beach dress, purple belt and Love Moschino tote bag.






 Happiness was so simple. It was when I had a chance to jump around like a crazy woman, in a perfect place, at a perfect timing, with somebody special who was patient enough to take lots of photos of me under the hot sun without complaining anything. I couldn't expect anything more than that.







My petite feet were thrilled with joy as they still looked adorable in Havaianas after a whole day of walking. For the first time, there was no blister, no broken skin, no pain, I could probably walk miles in those Havaianas flip flops.




There is nothing like the awesomeness of nature to quiet our mind, renew our souls and heal our hearts. Right there, where I was at, I found my inner peace. Peace was seeing the sunset, knowing who I should thank to.
Thank to K. K for helping me taking these beautiful photos.
Thank to FlopStore Singapore for introducing me to Havaianas so that I can start falling in love with all the happy, colorful flip flops, again.

{COLLABORATION}: MARKS AND SPENCER #ILIKEITPERKY

{COLLABORATION}: MARKS AND SPENCER #ILIKEITPERKY



Nothing feels better than putting on a pair of jeans that instantly makes you look so hot, yet still gives you the maximum comfort and confidence. I own, perhaps, 100 pairs of jeans (almost) in different styles, sizes, from different brands, yet I'm still on the hunt for a perfect pair of jeans that can take me from day to night. 

To be completely honest, Marks & Spencer has never been in my mind before when it comes to #jeans as I thought, their clothes are made for tall and big size women. I'm so petite, I would probably swim in them. Until they offered me to try on their latest Scupt and Lift Denim collection, I went from "M&S Denim? Hmm, I'm not sure" to "Oh My God! I love it!". How could I not adore it when the jeans do not only flatter my body figure, but also give my bottom such a sexy shape. I like my butt to be perky, and I assume you want yours to be the same. Besides, I'm absolutely obsessed with any jeans that can elongate my legs, and save me from the trouble of altering them shorter to fit my height.

 Once the fit is settled, the second most important thing that I'll always look for in a pair of jeans is the fabric. M&S Denim fabric quality is much better than what I expected it to be. It is ultra-durable, stretchable and so comfortable. I'm not going to lie, I tried to do a few dance splits in these jeans, and they did a wonderful job. These jeans are seriously made for dancing. 

Looks like Shelley Rand- a Denim Designer for Marks & Spencer and his team did an amazing job in making us-women feel confident in what we wear. Don't underestimate the power of a perfect pair of jeans, they can make you look so chic and sexy even with the most basic white tee, plaid blazer and simple stilettos, just like that. 


























This season, Marks & Spencer is also unveiling a new line up of Leading Ladies to front its Spring/Summer advertising campaign. The collection will be featured in Marks & Spencer’s  international flagship stores including Singapore’s Wheelock Place. 
For more information about the brand and their latest collection, follow Marks & Spencer on their Facebook page.

P/: S This blog entry is proudly sponsored by Marks & Spencer to promote for their M&S Denim Sculpt & Lift collection. 

Thank you so much for reading.
