Instead of helping me plan my wedding, my sister is already planning to take over my bedroom. GRRRR.

I am only moving out next year so stop dreaming!

Adding to the family of “I Love Wedding Blogs” series we have Green Wedding Shoes! Started by Jen Campbell, Green Wedding Shoes shares and inspires many couples with gorgeous photography, vintage details and many other wedding ideas! It is one of my main sources of inspiration aside from Style Me Pretty, for I love both blogs for their stunning real life weddings they featured!

Here is one inspiration I got from Fina & Nathan’s wedding! Bottles on pew, just the way I like it!

My sister came back from exchange with a whole lot of bags and I benefited from her with this Stella McCartney bag. It’s so huge I can use it for a weekend getaway!

Met up with Maxine for dinner last Wednesday for Out of the Pan. It is really yummy and there is a UOB card 1-for-1 promotion from Monday to Thursday! Love cheap yummy treats!

We updated each other of our lives and this girl never fails to surprise me!

Ate some yogurt ice cream too! Yum yum!

A Quarter of a Centenarian

I always get really excited when the peeps from town council start hanging our national flags in the estate and yesterday I saw these! YAY!

I’m no patriot in fact I’m quite a narcissist! I’m counting down to the day of becoming a quarter of a centenarian!

Hoarding Random Items from Robinson Expo Sale

We love Robinson Expo sale! They always have good stuff unlike John Little Expo sale which is often crappy! We bought a whole lot of cheap deals for our future home!

The champagne flutes come in a set of six and it cost only $15! One of our best buys! The original cost was about 50 odd! It’s heavy, comes with a crisp “cling” sound (my ultimate test for glassware) and the height is just right.

My favourite buy! These mugs with the vintage print of a blender are just right for our Scandinavian-quirky-cool-loft theme! It’s $15 for a set of four and we bought two sets! We will be serving our guests with these mugs!

His favourite buy, a tea pot! Erm. It is not exactly cheap but we are both tea lovers and he wants to bring em to his office!

These mirror frames are our second best buy! The original price was 30 odd and now it’s only selling at two for 20! Insane!

This is totally random but I once saw this recipe book stand in a magazine and I’ve been looking for one! The ones in Ikea don’t make the cut and I’m glad it’s only $11.50 for this! How awesome!

Sigh. All these purchases made me realize I’m a shopaholic! Even shopping for random household items makes me happy!
