{ Colour Palette } Navy Envy

It's the time when you leave the door and then realise the sun doesn't seem that warm to you anymore and you are hesitate to run back to grab a jacket or not. I think summer really is fading, but the memories are still so fresh and clear just like yesterday. Speaking of layering up, I think navy style can easily go with anything and fit different occasions. I collected some items to make a mood board with this navy style and hope you like it.

{ On The List } Take Me Away

Well, guys, I am taking next week off to Phuket for holiday, and this is my first holiday this year so I am freegin' excited! Why said "first"? Because it sounds more exciting to me!! (But I do have other 2 coming up, yeah!) 

I am sure any girl like me would overthink before the vacation, and might "accidentally" make some purchases before the actually holiday, like new bikini, new hat, well, basically new everything. (If you didn't do it, then it's not really a holiday, it's more like an escape in my standard...) So for me, this time is kinda an escape since I haven't done any irrational shopping yet and we are flying this Sunday, so I can say the goal is to be relax and enjoy the humidity and infinity pools in tropical heaven. Life is good, isn't it? Even coming up, still lots challenges await us, but we have to recharge our souls in some ways, at least that's what I think. Don't you think?

Secondly, there are also some tips from my experiences about traveling:

1. Do not pack up too many accessories, only if you are sponsored(?!), otherwise you will end up being too cautious or losing them. That's not a very good memory.

2. Enjoy the actual moment, it's good to have beautiful images to tell the story but the most important part is sharing good times with your beloved companies.

3. Be kind, even you are not sure what is the local food content on the table, don't make a scene. You can calmly say no.

4. Don't be afraid of being lost, we love lost, that's how we found super tasty Udon in Osaka last year. 

5. Make sure you have different levels of restaurants, so then you can criticise about the food fairly. 

Lastly, although I didn't do the shopping, that doesn't mean any of you couldn't have some inspirations from my current favs, for you who are about to embrace the summer, lucky you as well!!

Have a dry week!! Heheheh

{ Moody Moodboard } A Midsummer Dream

Images from Pinterest, Edited by me

Hi guys, sorry about my slow updates lately, I have been immersed in endless lunches and dinners with family and friends, and I think I am lucky enough to have them around to top off a great summer time to make the memories even more special. 

Now, back to the topic, summer, where should I start. Summer, I adore summer, that golden haze in a squint with salty air and olive tan. That sizzling sand stalk you everywhere, that bubbly sound in the champagne glass and that persistent ocean try to pull you into its arms and so on. It's like you can celebrate anything in this season. I just can't love summer enough because it guarantee me so many great times. And sadly I couldn't help noticing the day is slightly shorter, and the evening is slightly colder, apparently, summer is preparing to withdraw its magic. So here's a few pieces of the beachy summer vibe that inspired me and I hope you like it. Oh, if you live on the other side of world, that's even better, your good time is just about to start. 

Enjoy rest of the Summer, guys!!

{ Colour Palette } Orangy Frenzy

Images from Pinterest // Graphic design by me

Hello guys, Had a good day so far? Some of you might have noticed that I have a thing in orange colour and the truth is I always have soft spots in bold colours. My mom always teased me that I always dress like Christmas tree and I really don't care. Seriously I have no idea why I dressed like depressed old lady when I was 14 and I guess I didn't like too much attention back then. I was always afraid of people's opinions so I always follow other kids' fashion. Until high school, I decided to stand for myself a bit more and than a little bit more and I never go back. Bold colours are not just statements, they are elements of happiness, well, at least it is to me. The history of my colour crush from hot red, neon pink, turquoise...and so on, now it's this happy orange.

Also, nother fan of this colour is Frank Sinatra and I can't agree more! What do you think? Do you like orange just like me or you think it's confronting? 

Anyways, if this colour is not your happy colour, there is something else can make you happy. It's Friday tomorrow!!! heheh!

Wish you have a nice night tonight and great tomorrow ahead:)

{ Moody Moodboard } Bitter Sweet

Images// internet, design//me

I have been thinking about making a moodboard for a while, so I started to search around then I found blush is such a beautiful colour and the resources are easy to find. Most girls secretly or officially love this dreamy colour so might not be too hard to deal with since I have never done anything like this. Honestly, I struggled massively trying to put all the pieces together and make sure the gaps are consistent, heaps redos and undos and finally I got it done. The time I spent probably can let me make a tableful of feast if nothing goes wrong. It was really a challenge making things nicely together because the more I stared at the photos I wanted to use, the more urges come up to my head. Or just I am too messy? Unlike some of girls growing up as a scrapbooking expert( which I wish I could be one) I was the tv kid watching non-stop cartoons and I still am that kid today. Oops, that just leaked out..

Anyway, I believe it is a very good training to maintain a nice balance, leave the unnecessaries and stay simple. Another lesson from the mundane today.

Nearly weekend, hang on guys!!
