Happy Lunar New Year! Day Three

Happy Friday, folks!

CNY day three pictures.. Better a little late than never, right? :D
I spent Day 3 out with YZ's family and relatives, we had a buffet lunch at Sheraton Towers and went visiting at his relatives'!

The buffet lunch at Sheraton Towers was mehhhhh. Definitely not going back again. You know a buffet is bad when even the cold prawns aren't fresh. I only enjoyed the freshly barbequed bakkwa and the froyo machine. And maybe the salmon sashimi. Other than that, the other food available was mostly mediocre and I don't think it was value for money at all. Boo.

Camwhoring with YZ in the car hehe.

Since the food wasn't that awesome, I just did a collage haha NOPE the food ain't even worth the "airtime" on my blog. Meh.

YZ with one of his cousin's kids. Soooooo cute hor! 

With pretty Gly, YZ's younger sister :D

Random nugget of information: YZ and Yingdan (if you find her familiar it is because she is one of the co-owners of Lilypirates!) are sort of distantly related: cousin's cousin kind of thing haha so we see each other during CNY gatherings which feels pretty funny lol.

           Both of us adorned in florals and our own labels but of course!    

The rowdy and riotous poker table.

YZ's nephew, Zavier! He's super cheeky and mischevious but extremely adorable!

Lol doesn't he look like YZ?

Couple outfit picture! ^.^
Wore the Lilith Floral Peplum Dress in Apricot with my Jeffrey Campbell heels!

TGIF all!

Happy Lunar New Year! Day Two

***

Back with Day 2 photos! ^__^

Goodness me.. One week of CNY already over and another week to go before everything comes to an end! After which I need to start watching my diet and returning to my exercise pronto ;( Feel like a pig cos I haven't been watching what I'm eating! Seems like most of my calories are coming from pineapple tarts and other things that are equally bad for me *horror* I feel like a fat bloated pig ;__; There's still another two more "reunion" meals that are planned for this week, so yes. Right after those two meals, it's back to hit the running track! Cross my heart and hope to die.

Lazy me haven't been doing anything at all during CNY except spending time with the fam and relatives and boyfriend! No gambling (I did win $10 at one house, but that was it!) and lots of idling around and just enjoying the break from work! So much that I don't feel like going back to work boohoo!

Didn't do much on Day 2 except visit my aunt's place in the afternoon for 拜年! Damn chillax haha. I love the adorable pooch! She's a miniature toy poodle called Nicky! Awwwww. Never realised how adorable toy poodles were until this CNY.

A close-up of my embroidered peter pan collar!

And my gorgeous shoes from Jeffrey Campbell :) I wear until 够本 this CNY hehe! 

Still determined to be decked out in red and thus I chose this Moroccan Embroidered Dress in Red! :D Upcoming piece on TheVelvetDolls! YAY.

I have many more pictures to post, for CNY Day 3, as well as Vday! There's been readers asking me for a Vday post.. Hahaha. I would love to do one, but need to wait okay do in sequence! Okay I know Vday is over, but since I'm gonna blog some pictures from the actual day itself, I guess it will have to wait :)

But since I posted this on Instagram already, I guess I'll just share this little collage first! Teehee. Unexpected roses for Vday (it's probably my 3rd? bouquet of flowers from the boyfriend because he knows I find them a waste of money) and a very sweet day of surprises planned by him. Aww. More on that in a later post! ^-^

In other unhappy news, my skin has been breaking out terribly of late, and I suspect it could be due to my sleeping in a dusty room with bedsheets that are unclean :( It's all over my cheeks and chin, and totally sucks :( Breakouts always make me feel so ugly and unattractive sighhhh. You can't tell so much in the above pictures cos of the makeup/lighting/my awesome photoshop skills, but it's really bad with angry red pimples on the sides of my face and my chin. Trying to remedy it now by cleansing my face thoroughly everyday, and wearing very light makeup to allow the skin to breathe. It's really ironic that I have got so many skincare products (so many that I can't even finish using them all) and I'm having the worst skin of my life :( I really envy girls with flawless skin who look good without makeup because they don't even need to conceal anything! Boohoo.

Off to beddy bed now! Hoping everyone is having a good week post-CNY festivities! Even I'm feeling the blues and I don't even have to wake up early for work, lol. Be right back with more life updates and other blog posts very soon!

xoxo

Happy Lunar New Year! Day One

Happy CNY, all!!!

Photolog from Day 1: Did the usual and stayed home while relatives came over to visit! Realised that I've been taking lesser and lesser photos every year. Hahaha. Is this a sign of getting old? :( But I love Chinese New Year, the never-ending feasting and festive good cheer! There were EIGHT dogs in the house yesterday!! D: And all of them so adorable hehe, makes me wanna get a miniature toy poodle too! 

Woke up early, and I helped the sissies with their make-up like I do every year. Unofficial make-up artist and I even had to help the small sissy tweeze and trim her brows the night before! The first thing we did after we were all dressed and made up was to 拜年 to Daddy dearest. The dogs got to dress up too and QQ looked adorable in her cute little dress! All the aunts started coming in with their doggies and it got real crowded quick!

When I was little, I loved collecting red packets and scrambling into my room with my sissies at the end of the day to start consolidating our "earnings", but as I've grown older and started earning my own keep, the money collected from red packets has gradually come to be less and less significant. So I'm just enjoying the break from work and the yummy steamboat and all my favouritest sinful CNY goodies! Bak kwa is my kryptonite :( O well, back to dieting again after the festive season is over!

Dressed down a little for day one, since I knew I'd be staying home anyway! Matched my floral bustier top from Topshop with the Suede Scallop Hem Skirt in Red from TheVelvetDolls! I always try to wear something red on CNY though I'm not superstitious or anything, but it just puts me in the mood for CNY! :)

Having a pretty quiet 初二 today cos YZ is away with his fam and relatives in Kukup! He's only gonna be back tonight, and tomorrow we're going for buffet lunch plus more CNY visiting :DDD

Hope that everyone's having an awesome CNY with your loved ones too! ^____^ Eat more goodies please! Be back again real soon with more updates! Byeeeeee!
