30 vs 35

Can't decide to get the 30 or 35. Something that goes easily from day to night, perfect proportion and hopefully not too heavy! Looking through the color chart and boy ... it's not gonna be easy choosing a color.

I adore Chanel Hydramax lipbalm. I can't get enough of them!

the saturday life

My life today: Reading the daily news, people watching, breakfast (coffee a must), a quick stroll at the park, and shopping 

where where where

Where to go for a sweet and short holiday. Any ideas?

my best of 2011

2011 .... is definitely a travel year, with back to back packing and unpacking to some of my favourite cities --- London, Milan, Rome, Paris, Copenhagen, Zurich, Istanbul, Tokyo, San Francisco, Bali, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Auckland and Sydney.

Enjoy 2012 with family and your loved ones because you'll never know when your last goodbye will be. Have a happy and fashionable 2012 and enjoy your countdown wherever you are. In my case, I'll be counting down slightly late today (hee). Much love from the United States of America.

watch the world go by

This photo reminds me of the exact moment in London where I sat at Selfridges enjoying a cup of hot drink while watching the world go by. Much has changed since then.

They call this investment. What's your take?

let it die

The saddest part of a broken heart isn’t the ending so much as the start. The tragedy starts from the very first spark, losing your mind for the sake of your heart. Feist, Let it Die.

Leave your worries here, we're not coming back

wake up and smell the roses

Those pinkish roses are perfection. I like that it's just slightly pink. I like pretty paper too. I never write on them. Do you?

Then: She's cheer captain, I'm on the bleachers. Now: She's just a girl, I'm a superstar

heart stealer

Yes it's real ... I actually cannot believe it when I first laid eyes on him, I'd swear it was a soft toy. I really miss Truffles, he was the cutest thing ever. He was a very playful and mischievous pup. Sadly, he passed away early this year. My heart still aches for him as Truffles was never just a puppy to me, he was more than that. Non-puppy/dog owners will never understand the feeling of losing a pup. This post is a tribute to all the sweet memories we had and I hope you know I did my best. I miss you!

do you agree?

it is time

Time is moving, it really doesn’t stop for anyone. You either start living, or start dying - it’s as simple as that. Stop waiting for tomorrow, the future is now. No one is stopping for you, so you should start for yourself. Ambitious dreaming is key. Setting goals for yourself, is a must. Do what you love, say what you feel and make that every hug and kiss you give is just as real. God is love, imagination is bliss. Don’t live through the standards of others, live for your own fulfillments. These kids are looking for happiness, and they’re always in a hurry - and so when they get to tomorrow, they remember yesterday in a blurry. I’m sorry, but I love life - and I don’t need to show you how I’m living, but when it comes to happiness, we should all just try to enjoy the life we were given.

don't give up on summer

Growing up means one thing: independence. We all want it. Sometimes we use other people to try and get it for ourselves. Sometimes we find it in each other. Sometimes our independence comes at the cost of something else. And our cost can be high. Because more often than not, in order to gain our independence we have to fight. Never give up. Never surrender.

and the worst part is that it never really happened

Don’t you find dreams to be absolutely horrible? Even the wonderful ones (especially the wonderful ones). They fill you up with all of these feelings and give you absolutely everything you want, only to take it all back once you wake up and you’re lying in your bed alone and cold and you want to go back, but you never can.

summer always feel endless

I used to think the worst thing in life is to end up all alone. It’s not. The worst thing in life, is ending up with people who make you feel like you’re all alone.

sometimes you need to walk alone, just to show that you can

Being alone in a old place is lonely.

Being alone in a new place is terrifying and will teach you more than anything else

Especially about yourself.
