I Can't Believe I'm In A Good Mood On A Monday But...

*Note: Long post ahead.

This past weekend has been a great one to say the least. Maybe it's the spirit of x'mas crawling up or maybe I had such fun meeting friends I haven't seen in awhile AND I went shopping! My friend (together with her mum) from Shanghai  visited over the weekend where we did some catching up and checking out the newly opened Crystal Jade HK cafe at Orchard Central (might post pics of the food in another post). Went to check out the huge F21 store @ 313 (which I mentioned in the post below) as well. Ended up purchasing a dress and accessories for only $39! Cheap or what?! Gonna buy shoes the next time I go there! Also met up with M for the dress fitting, catching up, gossiping, and ended up doing unplanned x'mas shopping.

But the best of all has to be this...

I love discovering new blogs/sites and Lacee Swan is a new blog I came across very recently from Mr Newton's site (which I actually came across from another street style site, can't remember which one though). So, when I checked out Lacee's site, she happened to have this giveaway for a Ranya Tee, which is her own illustration/sketch of Russian model Ranya Mordanova printed on an AA T-shirt. As close friends would already know, I have this thing for faces on clothes or bags (I don't really know exactly why so don't ask..haha), so I tried my luck since it was one of the very few giveaways that the blogger was willing to mail anywhere in the world. And guess what??!!

Lacee Swan Ranya Tee


Pardon me for being so very excited and feeling lucky but hello?! It's like the first time I've ever won anything from a giveaway?! Not that I tried my luck at many in the first place. Thank you so much Lacee! It's such a fantastic X'mas present!=) Do check out Lacee's blog, she's does really nice illustrations & sketches. If you like the tee, I believe she's selling them on her site as well, besides the Ranya Tee, there's also the Lara (Stone) Tee & Dree (Hemingway) Tee

Lastly, today's the bff's birthday! Happy Birthday S! Hope you got my msg!

PS: I know there's this whole initials replacing names thing going on in this post. Well, I just finished a season of Gossip Girl, maybe that explains why. Have a great week ahead!
