Ever since I wore the hijab, I always found it difficult to get the perfect white shirt. Being in a humid country and having to cover up head to toe, wearing white has always been ideal. But after wearing the hijab for almost 5 years, there was always something wrong about the white shirts I bought; 1) Too translucent 2) Bodice part is lined, but the sleeves are still translucent 3) So difficult to iron, and because its white, the crinkles are even more obvious. ( I was just ironing a white shirt I bought from Zara and it really ruined my morning, see photo below. ) 4) A bit too coorperate looking 5) Doesn't cover my butt/thighs ...
It was a busy afternoon when a group of art educators sat down and finishing art work preparation while some were having a brief training for the next art lesson.

Seems like almost every other day, I have something marble on me. If not the shawl, Id be seen wearing the top. The one thing I truly love about this marble peplum is that the fabric is crinkle free!!! Well, if you're a neat freak, then perhaps you'll want to iron a little. But for someone like me who is always rushing, this peplum is perfect! Open my wardrobe, grab, wear and GO! So here's a quick look at how easy it is to match this marble print. You wont believe it, but I wore this to a wedding!! It was a rather hot day and I had dinner with family after so I couldn't bring myself to wear anything...
Last weekend, my girlfriends of fifteen years and I went for our first trip out of Singapore. Being such adreanline junkie, we went to Sunway Lagoon for a short escapade. Once we checked in at Sunway Resort Suites, we changed into our wet activity gear. I wore my sister's Burqini with an additional onesie tudung. We went for dry and wet rides one after another. Unlike the Universal Studio here, we could stay in our seats and request for another ride. My chest felt tired from the screaming and we waited for the waves at the pool. Funny encounters happened! Once being swept by the waves, our tudung went out of place which made random strangers and ourselves laughed in...
While we're still in the mood for marble craze, here's a little throwback on the days where we were experimenting our marbling technique. And if you're a sucker for this, you can do it at home too. Make your own marble cards, envelopes, bookmarks.... All you need is ; - Basin of water - Stick - Paper - Small bottle of marble ink ( you can purchase from Art Friend ) Here's a video and for those who are super lazy to follow through, scroll down to see the step by step photos=) Of course for our Lully Selb marble prints, we added some rose gold streaks and then transform it into a digital print.
