[Blog Train] Day in a Life of a Working Mom

October 26, 2016

I’m back on the annual Day In A Life (DIAL) blog train hosted by Justina of Mum in the Making. Last year, I’ve shared about my typical day as a SAHM during my maternity leave when Laurent was 3 months old, and also after I went back to work when Laurent started Infant Care at 8 months. I took a look back at what a typical day was ...

Why I Love Shopping at PriviKids Store @ Waterway Point

October 24, 2016

With the internet, Instagram and Paypal, it has become so convenient to shop online, especially for kids clothing. But, call me old school if you will, I still very much enjoy shopping for Laurent’s clothes at physical stores because to me, shopping isn’t an item to clear off the to-do list. I see it as an experience to be enjoyed, ...

ASTALIFT Skincare Series

October 19, 2016

The joy, excitement and bliss of motherhood aside, there’s no denying that the lack of proper rest and self care that came with being a mama could take a toil on our skin. I have long coveted the beautiful, natural glow seen on Korean artistes because their skin always look plump, fresh and healthy even without the need of heavy make-up. ...

Every Tantrum is a Chance to Learn

September 24, 2016

Laurent is currently in his Terrible Twos stage and honestly, we get some sort of a tantrum or melt-down almost everyday. Some days just warrant a little ticking off and other days time-off at the naughty corner. Then there are those days where the tantrum or meltdown is so serious, I could feel the very last bit of patience and tenderness ...

[Review] 5 Things I Love About Olympus PEN-F

September 20, 2016

I have had my Olympus E-PL 6 for slightly more than 2 years now. It was my first micro 4/3 camera and it has seen me through some memorable milestones. It captured the various stages of my pregnancy, our house moving, numerous events that I attended, uncountable OOTDs of Laurent, and most recently, his 2nd birthday. It has been a great ...

Resource List for Learning Calligraphy and Hand Lettering

August 25, 2016

After a 2-month hiatus I’m finally practicing my calligraphy and hand lettering again. I have been feeling uninspired for a while and just put off practicing totally and it was, of course, a terrible mistake. I was reminded of my tagline for the year which is Pursue Passion, Not Perfection and decided to start practicing again and sharing some ...

A Beginner’s Yoga Experience – Yoga with Serene Martin

August 19, 2016

Yoga is one thing I never thought I’ll be keen in practising if you’ve spoken to me about it more than 3 years ago. I used to find yoga too slow and possibly even boring and would gravitate toward more “exciting” classes at my company gym like Zumba, dance, kickboxing, etc. My very first experience with yoga was a free ...

Thoughts & Reflection on the Seasons of Love

August 5, 2016

It’s been a while since I had time to really sit down and enjoy an evening on my own, just spending time doing the things I enjoy and reflecting on life. I love family time and I enjoy nights out with my girlfriends, but being an introvert, I know I can only truly recharge when I spend time on my own. So when Wayne told me he has a ...

July 25, 2016

I LOVE dressing Laurent up and I LOVE taking photos of him in his cute little outfits – which is why I set up an Instagram account just to share these photos. I’ve been getting some comments and messages from fellow mamas asking about how I photograph Laurent’s OOTD without him kicking up a fuss, running around and with him ...

We celebrated Laurent’s 2nd birthday over the weekend with a staycation at Sofitel Sentosa and a trip to USS, followed by a dinner gathering with his favourite people and a mini birthday celebration in school on his actual day. It’s a celebration for Laurent turning two, but it is also a celebration for mummy and daddy turning two. A ...
