Let me just start this blog post by saying:

MY BRACES ARE OFF!!!

Although you might already have gotten sick of hearing about my teeth if you follow me on Twitter, Dayre and Instagram.

Hahaha.

It's been long since I've had such good news.

I know right,

life is sad.

It's been a long (2 years) and tough journey but I made it!
Am so happy with how my teeth looks now.
So not used to my "naked teeth" but I guess anything beats having braces on!

One of my favourite juices from the cleanse, Popeye Smoothie!

I know I've said that I would be updating about my HIC juice cleanse here...

But I updated my Dayre instead!

;)

Thought it would be better if I could update about my experience + thoughts on the go.

Go read it if you want to find out how it went!

And well, what's new.
I'm late in blogging about my outfits again!
Will include an outfit from the upcoming launch this Sunday at the end to make up for the lateness!
:)

Taylor Boxy Tee in Black and Wrap Party Skorts from TTR, bag from Topshop, shoes from C&K

Black and white has got to be my favourite colour combination recently.
LOL.
Totally overdoing it but I don't care.
No one can ever get sick of black and white.
Hehe.

This tee is such an awesome piece to own!
Gotten yours from the launch yet?








Valentino Cropped Top in Florals from TTR, skirt sample piece for TTR, white loafers from overseas

One of the popular pieces from last night's launch!
We've just opened backorders for this gorgeous piece (in white too!) so grab them while hot!
;)


Visited Creamier with Thom last weekend.
Love the ice cream but the place was scarily overcrowded.
Hahah.

I recommend the sea salt gula melaka!









Lovely weekend evening spent with Thom and ice cream.
Hehe.

Dolce Ruffles Bralet and upcoming asymmetrical pelmet skirt from TTR, bag from C&K, white slip-ons from overseas

I am obsessed with this skirt.
We're currently trying out this new material for our pieces and it seems like we will be using this material for quite a few designs!
:)

Keeping 3 colours for the skirt as of now.
But I'm thinking of 4.
Hahaha.

Oh and we're all sold out for the backorder slots for this Dolce Ruffles Bralet!
Intending to open the second backorder soon!
:)
Don't fret if you have not gotten a piece of this yet!


Office still in progress and my stress levels have never been this high.
Also worrying about several delayed shipments this week.
SIGH.
Life is hard.
Really need to make an effort to stay positive this week!

To A Brighter Smile.

Friday's outfit for my orthodontic appointment!
Basic Tee Top in White, Basic Skinny Jeans in Light Wash, Multiway Hobo Bag sponsored by Bricks & Bolsas, wedges from Bershka.

I've always wanted to wear a plain white tee with skinny jeans, but was afraid it would be too plain.
So I topped the outfit off with some cobalt blue accessories and surprisingly this combination played out well!
:)

I love how the cobalt blue bag and shoes stand out from the neutral/light colours!

This is bad, my cobalt blue obsession is starting to get serious.
Hahaha.



 
Killed some waiting time by making good use of the camera!
Casio watch sponsored by Naked Glory.
One of my most worn.
:)




Finally got this micropin out from my gums!
I was happily telling Thom,
'Baby today I removed a screw from my gums! I'm officially screw loose now, hahahah.'

So hard to believe this was drilled into my gums (and also bones) and now it's out again.
Sounds gruesome but I literally felt nothing when it went in and out.
Could only feel the prick of the anesthetic needle!

The size of the micropin was about the width of my thumb,
which is quite big.
But the hole in my gums healed super fast and now I can barely feel it when I run my tongue over.

Anyhow, my orthodontist said that we have no use for it anymore now that my teeth are almost nicely aligned!
She also put me on metal wires during our last appointment to make the entire process faster for me.

So glad to be at Friday's appointment because I missed my Simpliclear wires sooooo much!
:')


My smile looks better with 100% clear braces!
:D

Anyway, I have not realised how clear brackets and clear wires make a difference because I started off with them.
So when my orthdontist changed me to normal wires last month,
I felt pretty weird because suddenly they are so obvious...

Some people even asked me 'Eh, you put braces ah!'
Okay la, I think they are also damn unobservant because they didn't realise that I was actually on braces all the time?!

I ♥ Simpliclear!

If you're considering getting braces,
I'd say why not spend a little more and get Simpliclear?
I think it really does make a difference.
Overall, I feel like my smile is nicer with Simpliclear and I'm more confident when I'm smiling at the camera, or people for that matter!



Me and Jess doing our thing while Jolene and Ben are in the front seats.
Hehehe.


Can't wait to take off my braces and finally smile without them!
;)
Although I think I will miss them quite a bit, hehe.




My teeth looks damn straight already right!!!
:D :D :D
My orthodontist says it still can be better though.
I hope patience pays!




WE'RE STUCK TO EACH OTHER FER LYFE!!!!!
But that's not a bad thing at all.
♥












I KNOW.
Shokudo again.
But we just had to show Jess and Ben how much good food they have been missing out on!
Hahaha.

So anyway, I'm skipping the food captions!
Don't want to repeat myself all over again.

And everywhere that has Koi, 

I need to buy!
Queued up for Koi after lunch.

Really want to cut down on my milk tea intake though!

Have been working out recently and I can feel my abs showing already.

HAHAHA.

Had the awesome-st Sunday with my sisters (ermmmm plus Ben)!
Can't wait for more Sundays like this.
:)

Dressed up in florals and pastels and crochet today, sprinkled with a little bit of LOVE.

;)

Just launched the Pixie Pie Chiffon Top on the website but it's now sold out!

We should be opening backorders for it tomorrow so keep a lookout if you didn't manage to grab this gorgeous piece for yourself during the launch!

Shorts from Zara (last year), Vintage floral slippers from Loveschues, Love Bangle upcoming on TTR!

I'm recently in love with bangles and rings so I've been sourcing for some pretty ones to bring in for TTR.

:)

Can't wait for the rest of my shipment to arrive so that I can share the love!


Also, some of you have been asking us if we had any extras for the backorder of Bimba Straw Bucket Bag!
But sadly, all slots were filled during the backorder so we have none.
Fret not though,
just ordered another batch of restocks (plus a super gorgeous new colour) and they are making their way here right now!
:)

Have a great Monday with no blues!
