Toteally Awesome.

Made some small changes on my blog,
but I don't think you'll realise unless you're very observant!
Hehe.

Changed the images of my sponsors' square banners at the side!
Used the photos which I took of their products to do it.
Thought it would make the banners more personalised rather than just using their logos!
:D

Also re-edited the blog header photos!


Anyway, today's advertorial is for Sketch-a-tote,
their second advertorial with me!
Read on because they are offering a special discount code for 10% off for my readers!!

I love receiving packages from them because they look so pretty!
Comes with a really sweet note from Quan Mei the owner too!
:)

I was honestly spoilt for choice when I was browsing through their website because their tote bags come with the most adorable drawings/quirky quotes!
SO HARD TO PICK JUST 2 DESIGNS.
._.


And anyway,
after struggling for about half an hour or so,
below are my picks!

I was pleasantly surprised because this time round,
the tote bags are a lot thicker than the first one I've gotten from them!
:)

I remember receiving a few enquiries from my readers regarding the thickness of the bags, is it flimsy etc the last time I blogged about them.

Fret not because they've listened to their customers feedback and sourced for better material to make their totes!
Plus, every tote now comes with their very own label!
Even more quality assurance because it tells you that every piece is handmade with love.

Outfit:
Zebra Stripey Tee in Black and Destruction Denim Shorts both from TTR,
shoes from Zara (hehe my advance birthday gift from Sissy!!),
and Sail Away Canvas Tote from Sketch-a-tote.

Thought it would be cute if I could put together a nautical themed outfit to match the bag!
I love how quirky the boats look.
I think the thing about Sketch-a-tote which appeals to me so much is that every tote feels and looks uniquely handmade.

Outfit:
Upcoming cropped basic tee on TTR,
cobalt blue skater skirt which I'm still considering getting manufactured under the TTR label,
Watercolour Florals Snapback from TTR,
shoes from Jeffrey Campbell,
Is It Friday Yet? Canvas Tote from Sketch-a-tote.

I really love the tote bags because I foresee that I will be using them on a daily basis.
Think these will be perfect for students who have to carry laptops/books around everyday too!
Shall dump all my auntie and gaudy looking recycle bags for these cute totes RIGHT NOW.

Okay,
right to the important part!

Rewarded Thom who was the photographer of the day with dinner at Kraze Burger.
Was looking forward to dinner because we were both starving.
And the food looked really promising because there were so many people having it.

BUT MEH.
The burgers were disappointingly mediocre.
The soup and the garlic wedges were awesome though!
How can a burger place have bad burgers???!!!

In case you still want to go try it out,

Sketch-a-tote!

I have this eternal soft spot for all things handmade.
So when Quans emailed me and offered to send me some hand drawn tote bags to feature on my blog,
I was damn happy!!!
:)

Looked forward to the mail everyday and couldn't wait to receive them in my letterbox.
Hehehe.

The best part about buying your tote bag from Sketch-a-tote is,
each piece is absolutely unique and exclusive.
No chance of bumping into another girl on the streets with the same bag!
How awesome is that??


Shall show you what I picked!
(If you like what I have, maybe you can try emailing Quans and see if she is willing to recreate the same design!)

I wanted this ombre bag in blue initially,
but it was sold out so I got the purple!

Really love this shade of purple when I saw it in real life,
so I was secretly glad that the blue was sold out and I couldn't get that!
;p
