Every 18th of June

The headline is exactly the look that will make your grandma cringe when you step out of the house. Lucky for me, I live alone (away from the judgmental smirks of my conservative folks) so I was able to pull this look out - during broad day light. None of the clothes I'm wearing here are sponsored but I love them so much it should be shared! I got the top (S$9.90)  from MDS Collections, an online and brick-and-mortar store across Singapore. They tend to have very good bargain and deals every so often, so I take advantage of those. I have actually forgotten the last time I paid full price. I got the shorts (S$19.90)  from Temt, an Australian clothing brand, again found in major malls in Singapore. Finally, the heels (S$29.90)  which are super comfortable. I've worn it in the office for 12 straight hours, I climbed the very hilly Lan Kwai Fong area wearing it and have walked through potholes and uneven streets with it - thanks Zalora! Shades are from Celine (FW 2015).

Before the hustle and bustle of the holiday season began (way before), I paid a visit to Kenjo Salon. As always, I'm excited to see what hairstyle I'll be sporting when I head home. I know I am due for a haircut, but I am also in the mood to refresh my hair colour. My stylist, James never fails to surprise me. He decided on the colour - ash brown and ash purple, using Davines hair colour.

I've had a total of 3 colour changes this year, refreshing it every 2 months. Before that, I only sported my natural colour because I was so afraid to damage and dry my hair. But with the proper hair colour products and after-care, your hair will maintain it's luster and texture. I found that both Mucota and Davines products are good with my hair - I don't get dry and itchy scalp, nor hair breakage after excessive colouring. The entire process took around 2 hours to complete, haircut and hair colour combined. Note that I had light brown highlights done in August and this was the resulting colour. I advise that you ask your stylist what's best for your current hair colour, skin colour and features!

With the Chinese New year beckoning in barely a month, make sure to book your appointments at Kenjo Salon early. Get 15% discount off all services when you quote my name and look for James :)
