Summer Food Marathon

One of the (many)perks of having my family here is I get to enjoy unlimited good food and not feel guilty spending on it since it's upon their requests:) Vinny's @ Somerville: You have to try the salmon pasta! An insane amount of pasta for $20 that lasted 3 meals for me. The place is tiny and reservation is encouraged. Watch out for big, fat white cat that loiters around the place. Toro @ South End: Cozy tapas place near the city. ALWAYS crowded after 5pm. They open at 5:30pm. Hahah. Recommended to go during Sunday brunch. You are still able to get seats outside. Perfect way to spend a lazy sunday afternoon.:) Pastiche @ Providence: It's been more than 5 times that I drove an hour away just the have my dose of their fruit tart. Tried their carrot cake for the first time and loved it. Best carrot cake ever!
Toro @ South End (again): Told you this place was good! You HAVE to order the corn with lime and aged cheese. Amazing stuff.

Hot color of the season: Orange

Wow it's been ages since I was able to update FF. With summer classes, work, moving out, and my family being here, it's pretty much impossible to blog. But getting sick makes me bored and antsy so here I am blogging when I really should be resting...

I recently purchased this Chloe orange tote for my work "briefcase" but surprisingly have been working well with my summer outfits. Here's some pics: Urban Outfitters wayfarer + Forever 21 necklace + Random Blue tunic + American Apparel leggings + Tory Burch Sandals Uniqlo Fedora + Forever 21 and Adam tanks + Earnest Sewn Skinny jeans + Club Monaco Cardigan + Havaiannas flip flops + Forever 21 necklaceUrban Outfitters Wayfarer + Etro Scarf + Adam white tee + Gretta Grey Cardigan + American Eagle Boyfriend jeans + Tory Burch Gold Flats

Daily Catch by the waterfront offers a spectacular view of the city of Boston. It is also the main backdrop scene in which The Game Plan was featured in. How can you not love the city? Oh! And the food there is pretty good too.

Accesories: Random Stars Scarf ( the sizes of scarf gradually becomes smaller) + Cartier Watch + Chloe Orange Tote ( that I refer to as my orange work briefcase)

woMEN's wear

My obsession with men's wear has officially reached its peak. I'm in search of some khaki colored pants to cuff up and wear with high heels and a tee. But until I find the perfect one, I fell in love with my brother's striped blue shirt. Brother's shirt + Arden B skirt + Forever 21 double-wrap studded belt + Faux Python Flats from Payless + Balenciaga Grey bag

I <3 NY

Perfect company, wonderful food, and amazing shopping. I can't ask for more for the weekend get away trip to meet my mom and brother who had just come from Singapore.

Zara Grey oversized tee + Club Monaco Blazer + H&M acid wash leggings + Nine West jewelled sandals + Givenchy Nightingale bag + Bvlgari Watch

Day 2

My brother, StanlEy is quite into fashion himself. With a little help from me, I have to say he looks pretty good:)


My mum has been an inspiration to me in all and every way. Not to mention in fashion. Coincidentally, we ended up dressing the same this day. Black jeans, Chanel Flats, oversized bag, pearl necklaces, oversized cardigans, and aviators. How cute is she?!
We ate in Fig & Olives for lunch and the lunch Prix Fixe was amazing.

Tuna carpaccio drizzled with their signature olive oil
Simple yet tasty bowl of pesto pasta with truffles
We then had dinner at Morimoto. Owned my Iron Chef Japan.
Order of yellow fin fish. Amazinggg. Worth every penny. The decor of the place is also one of the creative I've ever been at. Sorry I don't have pictures of it!
Day 3
Started out with lunch at Avra in midtown. Amazing seafood especially the shrimp appetizer!


Outfit: Forever 21 ruffled top + Blank black jeans + Chanel flats + Givenchy Nitingale bag + RayBan aviators + Cartier watch
