Me #2: Your favourite scarf

Ok so it was really difficult deciding - I took a careful look at all my pretty scarves and lovingly wrapped them all around my neck and eventually decided on a tie.

My black skinny scarf with black sequins is a great accessory I wear in summer. The fluffy pink scarf was a gift from my mom and is so fluffy you almost expect it to purr!

Dear Chinese silk scarf - I love you too, you were a very close finalist.

Engagement rings



A fellow blogger Love & Stuff wrote about her love for weddings and as much as I was in a bad mood today - the thought of weddings cheered me up.


I have subsequently spent the next hour playing online looking at ring designs, wedding dresses, bridesmaids dresses - anything wedding related - I gobble it up!

My friend AC and I even have our own Event Planning company - recently established. Weddings are my Passion, ever since I was a little girl. To this day I have random wedding dreams.

A few years ago I dreamt that I was at a strange fairytale hotel and all 7 storues had different weddings going on. To this day I still remember all the decor and colour schemes. I am itching to plan some of these weddings. I have so many ideas and themes and because I am hoping to get married only once in my lifetime, I will have to plan them for someone else.

Themes include:
Winter Wonderland - fairy lights, crystals, frosted glasses, royal blue and silver
Morrocan: Rich golds, and ruby reds, emerald green with lanterns and chiffon everywhere
Hollywood Vintage wedding: Think of the glam times of the Marilyn Monroe, Greta Garbo, Elizabeth Taylor era. Long gloves, red lips and perfectly coiffed hair.
Springtime Delights: A hot air balloon, picnics on the lawn and lovely springtime decor. Soft pinks, greens blues and yellows with polka dots and Sun hats.

I once even videographed a wedding - that was a blast!


Above is the ring I would like one day - with 1 small change - the band will curl to the top and bottom of the diamond respectively - like so:
But look at how cute this ring is - pink diamonds are so expensive - so if I meet a millionaire, this is the ring I would like in a Platinum setting - isn't she just so pretty?!


*Sigh* I love weddings
