Let's start the year loud & proud

Goodbye 2011!  

You’ll forever be tagged in my head as one of my memorable years yet. In 2011, I feel that I have grown.  I learned so much & I gained a lot of experience. Bad day, bad news, bad experiences have really made me appreciate the good day, good news, good experiences that I have blessed with. There were lots of challenges & trials but thinking on a positive vibes, I couldn't be happier at this moment with the experience I receive during the last 12 months. 

• I learned that beautiful things happen when I break the rules, be myself, follow my passion & go for it.
• I learned that do everything with love. Look for beauty & inspiration in unexpected places. It makes me happy & it make things interesting.
• I learned that act as I want to be treated. The energy and the effort I put out will be returned to me many times over. Give love, I’ll get love in return & give happiness, I’ll get happiness. 
• I learned that I need to make my own opportunities, create my own luck and look after my own fortunes. Never wait for someone else to hand me what it is I am looking for.
• I learned that live slowly. Appreciate the small pleasure in life that makes me smile.

As the year is coming to an end I cannot stop thanking my blog readers. It is wonderful being able to share my thought, style, designs, inspiration and glimpse of my life with you.

How to have a lovely day?

I found these 10 steps on How to have a lovely day & I had to share them with you. I did test all of them. Believe it or not, it did change my day. I feel like my day is just getting better and better.

1. Smile at strangers. I like smiling. I believe there is always a reason to smile. When I smile instantly I feel good and happy.
2. Slow down.  Yep I’m taking one step at a time. 
3. Say thank you. Too often people take for granted and underestimate the power of saying thank you to others.  We all should say thank you. It can make others people feel good & it makes you feel good too. 
4. Dress nicely. I just love dressing up.
5. Give lots of compliments. Yes, this is something I didn’t do much. I just couldn't compliments people just for the sack of it. It need to come from my heart.
6. Wear perfumes.  I love the transformation power of perfume. Honestly I can’t have enough. It is so fresh & the smell is beautiful. It never fail to make my day beautiful & lovely.
7. Observe & listen. Okay! I'm doing it.
8. Be charming.  It is all about heart & soul.
9. Laugh. Laugh till my stomach hurt.
10. Wish people a lovely day. Have a great day! 

How sweet are they?  So it is your turn to give it a try darling.

Flowers can make me happy. The more, the merrier.

      Lately I was so inspired by amazing oversized frames & I knew that I had to have them in my room. You may remember I have posted my painting few years back (2007 here, 2008 here and 2011 here).  I thought that my painting needed a bit more structure to make them stand out. So I decide to order a simple custom made frame & I have framed some of them. Finally my paintings are behind the glass. I put it on my bedroom wall opposite my bed which is just perfect for now. Check out few of snapshots along the process. 

Now you will come to know how nosy is my cat's Coco. Yes she is!  

It’s really simple even you can do it.

I want! I want! I want has the only thing that come to my mind. It was definitely love at first sight.

Searching for that perfect something for another too often leads me to accidentally discovering that perfect something for myself. Yes of course for me darling! 

I want this simple white cupboard for my room
 to replace my dark wood cupboard.
This is so perfect!

I could foresee that this flowery tops will bring
a big sweet smile on my face..:)
I want this!

Aren’t these bamboo bangles looking beautiful? I want these, like 15 of them. 
Trust me.. it will look so nice when wearing all of them at the same time. After all fashion should be inspiring & fun. Otherwise what's the point? 

It's always good to get these. Oh come on universe! I'm just asking only for 3 items.
I know & I can feel now, that the universe is working on my wish list.
Thank you in advance!

Trust men to choose clothes for you..emmm. Trust women to buy gifts for men...oh YES!

Christmas is coming! 

It's the joy of giving. It’s the season to spread love. 

What to give man? If you've got a man to buy for, it can be tricky finding the perfect gifts for him   (emm..I didn’t mean perfect over here actually I mean the gifts that he will reallyyy love & like) 

So this is my top 5 gifts that I'm considering.

1. A Classic Blazer 

2. A Tickets for Concerts/ Sports ( I know! I know..he'll love it as long as it's not Justin Bieber concert ticket..baby... baby... baby :P )

3. A Grooming Box

4. iPad Wood Shellcase ( I love this case!)

5. Leather Travel Case 

( This is soo cool, I want! I want! but in purple please for myself)

Useful tips to buy a gift for men. 

• Before buying things for men I guess we should look at the men personality & his mindset. I think he will appreciate things that reflect who he is.
• Words that he passing can be a guide too. Make a mental note when he starts rambling about certain items. But if he rambling about certain cars, yes definitely he wanted that car. When it comes to this just ignore darling... (Oh boy! talk to the hand)
• Make a list of things he has. Shortlist things that he doesn't & buy for him the things that you think he most need. 
• Buy him an activity. Let say if he likes outdoor, book him a road trip. 

Ladies, Happy Shopping for your men!

Be so happy that when others look at you they become happy too...

I can't believe my beautiful Coco turned 1 last October. It feels like yesterday that I saw her in the cage at my grand parents house. She has been such a wonderful  addition to our family & I love her so much. I feel so fortunate & grateful to be able to enjoy each of my day with Coco. Her cuteness never fail to amuse & amaze me. Everyday of my life has been happier since she first hopped into my life.
