Forgive my one toned slightly haggard face, this was taken after a long day at the office! Lol. Enough of my face, let's talk about my outfit. It has been five years since I graduated, and boy I must say I've missed the school life. You know the feeling of being carefree and not worrying about what bills to pay. Ahh, those days. But since I have no plans in the very near future to go back, I injected some school vibes in my everyday corporate attire. If I have the budget and the fashion back in my school days, I'd probably wear this look. Comfy and stylish in one. A look that I hope Queen B would approve (without consideration to the lack of the designer items, of course).

 

A white buttoned down shirt and a flouncy skirt in two toned color with a pair of oxfords are what you need to achieve that school girl look. Add some multi-colored jeweled necklace and you're ready to stand out in the crowd.

 

How about you, how do you go for a school girl look? I'd love to know! <3

Singa-four

Shirt from H&M
Skirt from Shop Thrift Market
Oxfords from Aldo
Layered necklace from Quirky Avenue

Finally we're at the last day of my Singapore trip, hence the title Singa-four! Haha witty right, it was a kid's idea! :)

The last day was all given to shopping and roaming around the city. It's really a good thing that the city kept some of the british architecture, it was a good balance with the skyscraper buildings. To my outfit, I wore this beautiful and feminine midi skirt I got from Shop Thrift Market. I really felt all girly wearing it, especially if paired with a good pair of stilettos. But with all the walking and to balance the feminine look of my skirt, I matched it with a white shirt and an oxford. Voila, ready to go!

Singapore, may be a small city but there's a lot to explore and each street has a lot of story to tell. I definitely will be back!

The start of many firsts

Traveling has always been one of my greatest dreams! A citizen of the world, that never fails to give butterflies in my stomach. The thought of meeting another culture, exploring places and experiencing things beyond the comfort of my home excites me. I never thought this dream would come true very soon, so I'm very thankful that I was included in my Momo's annual family trip. The most surprising part is my first out of the country trip is in the most expensive cities to live in, the Lion City, Singapura or what is mostly known as Singapore or SG.

For our first stop, the famous and the city's symbol, the Merlion. As it always had, the park was so packed with tourists.

I'm glad they were all busy taking a picture with the Merlion, so I was able to take some pretty decent outfit shots. 

With the famous Marina Bay Sands!

Here's the group who made me realized my dreams! Thank you po! :)

Next stop, and my most favorite part of this trip, the Gardens by the Bay.

Oh, I can still remember the smell of the flowers! I miss it so much! This is probably one the happiest moments of my life. Being surrounded with these nature's beauty is one of the best feeling ever. 

Look, they let us be princesses and princes for our stay there! We're also lucky to catch their Tulipmania event! I got to see different kinds and colors of tulips, it's a magical feeling!

Here I am thinking and hoping to have at least get some of these flowers' beauty! 

Aside from housing a wide variety of flowers, they also have a man-made mountain with a built-in falls!!! How cool is that?!? Well, its really cool, so for those of you who haven't been there, make sure to bring a jacket.

Here's a sneak peek of our next destination. Hihi they look real, aren't they?

A rafflesia made of lego!

Really amaze what they did here so I have to take a closer look!

Welcome to the Cloud Walk!

My favorite group picture! :D

I was really glad to have brought an extra dress to provide an extra layer of warmth from that cloud walk! Glad I do not look weird on it. Agree?

Look! And nope I was not teleported in King's Landing, still in SG.

The last in our itinerary for day 1 is Sentosa island. You can go back there via their MTR or by riding a cable car. We chose the latter, and thank God we did. It was so much fun, there's so many view up above! 

Someone's real scared and nervous! :P

Hello there Mr. Bruce!

More adrenaline, more fun! Their tagline says it all, once is really never enough!

To cap off the day, we watch the Wings of Time and it was nothing but magical too! 

Truly, this day was a start of many firsts to me, not only was I able to went out of the country and explore Singapore, I got to know and bond more with Momo's family. I am so grateful for this wonderful experience. Watch out for more of our Singapore trip in the upcoming post.
