Can you reach me from across the globe?

Just arrived back from a 5 day adventure in Singapore. I booked the tickets last minute because I was waiting for something to wrap up and so it did, just in time too!

So many good memories. So many things to look back and quietly smile at :) One of the key moments was racing across the bridge on foot to jump on the Singapore Flyer before it closed at 1015pm. Although our hearts were pounding, our feet were aching and the heat was suffocating us - we still managed to laugh hysterically about it during our dash, and made it- possibly because the ticketing lady saw the gallons of sweat pouring down our faces. I never thought I would run like that for the world's largest observation wheel!

But honestly it was well worth the run! The view was absolutely stunning, we were practically the only ones in the capsule and it felt like the perfect way to spend our final night in Singapore :)

Also going to Singapore got me musing about glitter and all things sparkly.

I particularly like these set of heels found in Topshop. 

 I also rekindled my love of Miffy, my childhood fixation.

Aren't these passport covers cute? I especially love the red one. I also managed to buy a cute white and light purple mini purse to place my cards and coins whilst I was in Singapore.

Finally I love this track by Australian singer Elen Levon - Dancing to the Same Song.

I'm wide awake

So excited that spring has officially shooed itself in and the shopping centres have gone all out with their new colourful stock and floral prints. Even just window shopping gives me the heeby jeebies!

Loving the floral pants and colourful heels on Jessica Alba - a little bit daring but feminine at the same time.

 

Also loving the heels below - lace ups on heels are very sexy, as is the lace contours on the sides of these pins! I love the different textures.

I also like the model below's singlet. I like how it's got that element of ferociousness but there's the subtle femininity of the bun on top of the head!

Finally I'm absolutely in love with the bright lippy of the girl on the right and how it contrasts with the blueness of her woollen top and yellow striped bottoms. Cute, cute, cute :)

I've bought a few little tops here and there which I'll be posting up here shortly - Warning: they are BRIGHT!!! But I think that's 75% of the charm ;)

Fast cars and orchids

Today a few wonderful, unexpected things happened. Wonderful because they were unexpected but also wonderful because I've been looking for a pick-me-up lately.

For one thing, I got a lovely gift from my partner which brightened my day. I'd mentioned to him how exciting it was to finally have my own desk and my own space and he got me a beautiful purple orchid which I can gaze at if ever I'm feeling down at work. I'd been thinking of getting a little $5 cactus or a tiny little succulent but nonetheless, it was very sweet of him, especially the message inside the card.

Also just wanted to post my favourite song of all time Fast Car by Tracy Chapman. This song never fails to make my heart shiver just a little.

Current favourite mashup

I was speechless within 40 seconds. I love these artists so this mashup is my dream come true.

Symbolic tattoos cover the scar

Back momentarily from a hiatus. 

Started my new job last week and it's been an eye opener. Lifestyle has completely altered and my body clock is thanking me for it. Came back from a wonderful getaway exploring Northern New South Wales as well and my head is currently tender from new information overload.

My friend mentioned that Tyga has a new mixtape out and am currently checking it out now. It's called Well Done 3. 

 

I'm a huge fan of Tyga's remixes of existing tracks like Adele's Reminded and the following track- Rick Ross's Diced Pineapples.  So chilled and a great way to wind down after work. 

Enjoy :)

I'm running away from my fear, I won't go alone

Today was my first day as a non-employee of the airport. It's always say to say goodbye but the hardest part is knowing that things will never been the same as that particular moment in time. However the past few days were a fitting closure to a fun-filled, exciting three years. My colleague organised a farewell dinner for me and it gave me a chance to say goodbye to everyone. Plus I feel like I've come full circle completing the last flight with two people I've come to know and admire very well and waving goodbye to a cabin services manager who happened to be the first cabin crew member I got to know. 

I feel very blessed to come out of this experience as a stronger version of me.

Anyway I want to do more with my life and make a difference however idealistic that sounds. I'm excited and nervous about my next job but there's something very liberating about that feeling.

Trawling through some inspirational pictures:

The above is how I feel with I'm not with him and most importantly, towards my little sister. I feel very blessed to have two very wonderful people in my life who are always cheering me on and supporting me when I doubt myself. I hope they know I heart them very much so.

Finally a track I've fallen in love with - Run Alone by Australian rapper 360. Here's a teaser.

Ear candy

Today I went shopping and found some really cute earrings while I was browsing. I'm loving the new look this spring with brights and geometric shapes - it's a bit of fun mixing and matching which is what I love about fashion :) Plus it's the focus on little details that make an outfit interesting - it's all in the accessories and prints.

This pair from Diva reminds me the sun.

And hexagons are so underrated - this pair of earrings reminds me of Year 5 Geometry!

As for more candy for the ears, I'm loving an old track by Chris Brown called Perfume.
