the weekend escapade
Just a couple of hours left.
Have a great weekend everyone! Expect a massive clothes update when I return!
party like a king
Picturesque view from the top, and we’re truly intoxicated. Pretty sure by now you’re wondering where’s this place.
Rooftop party by the poolside, Guest DJ Andrew T, Free-flow champagne, Gold Diggers couldn’t get any better than this!
If you’re partying with Olivier, needless to say, it’s always done Hollywood Style!
Someone’s an extreme hater of spiders, and what’s he gonna do when faced with a gigantic one? Having to act macho whilst posing with it must have been extremely heroic!
To think with Halloween over, we’d have no more costumes to spot till a year later. Themed parties are proven to be way more fun!
Funny how I totally abstained from champagne today, nevertheless I’m very impressed with myself! You could have fun too without alcohol and it makes people-watching all the more interesting!
Happy Birthday Olivier!
At the strike of twelve, we took the party to Butter Factory.
Too much butter for the week! This weekend’s gonna be totally smashing, I’m sure of it!
Time to pack for my weekend escapade!
let’s get buttered
Mandarin Oriental with Craig after what seemed like a million years. This time round, we skipped Mortons for some Japanese Bistro.
Lucky for Craig, I was not fashionably late because he gave me a fake timing. Seems like my friends are learning fast at tricking me to arrive on time!
The beef was exceptionally good & silly me never knew how tasty rainbow rolls were till today. Besides, it’s funny how we sat through dinner pretty much wasted. Not surprising for a sake fanatic like me.
And my favourite part? The transferring of food from other restaurants! Desserts are always delish, better gobble them up whilst babyvell does a toilet break. Thanks again Craig for the fabolous dinner, 700 bucks is no joke!
Encountered an amazingly hyperactive baby who attempted kungfu moves with me! So hard to keep me away from uber pinchable cheeks!
Butter up next.
Familiar faces aplenty, there’s nothing better than that! But I’m still craving Jakarta, this weekend shall be it!

you only live once
A random walk with the babyboy last year enabled us to stumble upon our favourite eatery. And now, I’ve been going back frequently with a couple of friends, and each day I have them bugging me to take them over & over again.
Nothing goes beyond a dollar fifty for a stick here, and the maximum never goes beyond three bucks for a fish. How rare for such pricing these days!
These kitties have been around for a year now, we’ve practically watched them grow. Whoever said kitties aren’t capable of recognizing familiar faces, okay not these two at least!
Okay, let me give you a clue where this place is roughly situated!
I’m not shy to admit I have the worst diet regime. Doesn’t it bother you to have mathematical calculations on food you’re consuming, e.g the amount of calories etc.? Nutrionists must really hate me!
Too preoccupied with eating, never managed shots of juicy corns & multiple servings of the same platter. Then again, I’m never really full. My stomach is truly a bottomless pit.
After all, my passion for food was what brought the babyboy & I together.
[ADV] Pink Parlour
My first experience at Pink Parlour was so good I have to share it with all of you. When you mention Brazillian waxing, you want it to be a fuss-free & squeaky clean affair.
Being here sets you in a romantic mood instantly, especially with the dim lightings, candles & cozy beds.
A quick shower later, I changed into my bath robe. Pink Parlour does have shower facilities, not very common in other regular salons pre wax. Another thumbs up for that!
All you die-hard romantics would be excited to know that Pink Parlour has a couple room for the ultimate waxing experience, that’s if you’re adventurous enough.
I’m not gonna lie and say it was totally pain-free, but really the pain goes away in a split second. Pink Parlour uses only hard wax for Brazillian waxing. And having Wendy as my therapist has got to be the best thing ever. She made small chats with me to make the process least awkward as possible.
Also, if you’re prone to having ingrowns, bump eraiser might just be the perfect solution for you. Just two weeks into using it, you’d notice visible results.
And it’s true when they say ‘Once you visit Pink Parlour, there’s no other place you want to be at.’
Guess what girls?
Come celebrate Pink Parlour’s 4th Anniversary Party together with me 21st November at Far East Plaza.
Mark your calendars already today!
Trust me, you don’t wanna be missing out on this $8 hair free party!
jakarta part four
Today’s breakkie.
Someone’s craving for piping hot soup, and she regarded no steam as failure. Babyvell went easy on the sushi & my burger cravings just got insane. Oh well, they’re mini anyway!
Followed by the long-awaited French massage, which rids water retention effectively!
Passed out for a good ol’ two hours, before heading to Grand Indonesia. Everyone had their doubts initially, but trust me, these are actual restaurants. I wished we had better decor for restaurants here.
Blowfish round two- partying here is truly sensational.
Too many jaggerbombs, it’s not surprising at all though. Someone here apparently has been awake for 48 hours straight.
Late night supper/ Early breakfast
We’re gonna miss laughing hysterically over ice-cream & in the wee hours of the morning.
the strike of midnight
This year’s Halloween over at Supperclub.
Did some last-minute shopping and ended up eight hours in two malls, that was truly insane. Truth is, we couldn’t really decide what we’re gonna go as and ended up buying the redundant.
Halfway through partying, hunger hit me so bad. To everyone’s astonishment, I actually fled to Macs for a supersized meal-a milkshake, a chocolate fudge, a large fries & two burgers.
Too preocuppied with our champagnes & baileys, I didn’t manage gazillion shots with random strangers dressed in outrageous costumes. Oh what a shame!
Tonight was such a blast, if only we could play dress-up everyday! And someone remind me to lay off jaggerbombs next time please! It’s one of the highest contribution towards my hyperactivity till noon.
Experience for yourself how Supperclub’s like-there’s a reason why we keep coming back!
shimmering & splendid
Massive dinner over at Yumeya with Nira.
Was never quite crazed over Gyu Enoki till babyboy put it in his list of must-haves! However, our favourite has gotta be the scallop. So awesome we couldn’t say no to a third serving! For anyone who hasn’t attempted Yumeya yet, you’re missing out.
Haven’t done this in the longest time, boy do we miss eating excessively together! Never underestimate the skinniest frames, sometimes their overwhelming appetite gets scary.
Ended up doing Zouk eventually.
Maybe Jakarta was too awesome, I’m not exactly feeling too hyped over partying here anymore. Or maybe I’m simply registering the absence of the other half. Either way, five months later we’d reunite.
jakarta part three
I have the weirdest habits, which includes breakkies at 545am. Besides, who could resist hotel breakkies which has anything & everything?
Feeling all famished now, after an entire night of partying, we’re all ready to finally get some shut-eye. i think?
Wide awake now for a full 24 hours, someone explain why the sleepy hasn’t made its way to us yet?
********
Fast forward to the evening- Lioni & Eddy’s wedding.
The decorations were so beautiful, filled with floral fantasies. Even someone as aloof as me can’t help but smile in delight. The bride was at her most enchanting moment in her ball gown & the groom was equally ravishing in his suit.
Wedding portraits, dress fittings, food tastings, rose petals, fabolous song selection & amazing colour scheme, all these months of efforts definitely paid off.
We’re all as elated as the bride, in fact we’ve gone pretty drastic to actually travel to jakarta specially for her big night. Not like an hour’s flight is a biggie, but seriously, if we didn’t love the person enough, we wouldn’t even go to such extremes.
Congratulations my Lioni Putri dearest!
[ADV] Twinkle Nailz
My not-so-important nails have decided to attempt a virgin makeover with Jenny at Twinkle Nailz. For someone who’s a no go towards even classic manicure, imagine how my pals would react to this drastic move. Acrylic glitter extension, you got it right!
Picking a favourite colour was harder than I imagined! Jenny had a wide array of selection I was literally spoilt for choice. One minute, I wanted blue, another minute, I wanted black, but never once did Jenny blew her top. Sitting through this four hours straight was nowhere near monotonous, not with her sense of humor and positive nature.
And to think I used to cringe at the thought of having a manicure, look at me now! It’s going to be hard to stop at one once you have started! Beautiful nails are no longer out of reach, they can become your reality, just like mine.
As my reader, you get to enjoy :
1) $20.00 off Acrylic Glitter extension
2) $5.00 off Classic Manicure and Classic Pedicure (U.P$42.00)
Remember to mention ‘Agri Velt’ to enjoy the offer for November.

jakarta part two
Headed to Shangri-la straightaway, jams here are quite a killer, lucky we managed to nap along the way. Each time we’re here, our schedule’s so packed sleeping an hour is considered luxury.
Wasted no time in having scrumptious food, alley foods are my absolute favourite. I even got fried banana fritters fifty cents for a huge pack. The dirtier and oilier, the better.
Dragonfly & Blowfish afterwards.
Twelve Jaggerbombs later & so wide awake. And we thought we partied crazy in Singapore already, boy were we wrong!
jakarta part one
My pre-flight habit consists of starbucks & o’briens. Honestly though my groggiest moment’s during noon-time, so morning flights were never really a problem for me.
My fifth encounter with Sour Sally by now, why don’t they have this already in Singapore? Expect long queues though before you get to devour a piece of it! I’ve even gotten bubbles so hooked onto it, it’s all we ever think about when we’re here.
Can’t really decide which flavour you desire? If like me, an incredible appetite is what you have, just devour all three at once!
Oh my goodness, what are we to do if not for Sour Sally?
[ADV] SkinLab Medical Spa
After hearing so much hype about the Gentle Exfoliative Milk Peel, I decided to give it a shot at SkinLab. Highly raved by Simply Her & Cita Bella, this peel is better known as SkinLab Signature Facial Treatment. It is sutable for all skin types, from oily acne to dry, aging. Too many late nights has left my skin feeling dehydrated & lifeless, it’s time to do something about it.
SkinLab Medical Spa is the culmination of the vision, dynamism and expertise of our in-house doctor: Dr Kelvin Chua, who wanted to integrate the pampering, attentive yet unobtrusive service of a world class spa with the most advanced, non-invasive medical techniques to provide effective beauty solution to treat mind, body and soul.
So what is this milk peel all about?
This 90-min treatment combines the nourishing, healing properties of milk, together with a concentrate of milk lactate that helps loosen dead skin and debris. Clinical trials have found it to be effective in absorbing environmental pollutants and toxins, including excess sebum, whilst the milk component helps maintain the skin’s hydration.
Aside from lying on a heater bed, I was provided with thick comforters to battle the cold. The head massage was therapeutic enough for me to doze off smiling. Despite this treatment being extremely gentle, it’s very effective in showing results in just one session.You have to try it to believe it!
