I enjoy making my outfit pieces as versatile as possible. So I decided to put a twist on the very popular kimono cardigan. I've mention in my earlier post (here) that kimono cardigans are such a joy to wear, especially with the insane heat here. Putting on a twist to the usual kimono wear just made things a little bit more interesting. And I strongly believe that a skater skirt is a must in everyone's closet, being a hijaber or not.

Oh. And that hat was a gift for a friend's 21st birthday. It was too beautiful I just had to take picture with it and was super close to keeping it all to myself.

To all my readers, enjoy your labour day!

With love, hannah xx

Senior year officially started on Monday, and honestly, it's still too much for me to take in. I'm still not ready to go through FYP, internship and graduation. I've enjoyed my years in poly and I want it to stay that way, forever. I'm not ready to face work, to face reality.

But I suppose there's nothing else I can do but make the best out of everything. I'd appreciate every stressful moments I have in school, make wonderful memories with whatever time I have left with my friends, work my butt off for the ideal GPA and eventually leave with a high note.

Cheers to Senior Year and goodluck to all you other Seniors out there.

With love, Hannah xx

Headed out with the bloggers earlier this week for some cafe loving over at Butterscotch. Theme of the day was polka dots and since I wore out my other polka skirt (here) way too many times, I decided to just go vintage. I've always loved vintage fashion since forever and I'm still figuring out how to make the ever so popular vintage midi skirts work.

This polka skirt is so versatile I'm so glad I grabbed it over at the wonderful BKK. I managed to grab this vintage top over at a sale at one of the stores in Haji Lane for only $8. Retail prices usually went up to as high as $30 per top. I could've bought the whole store if I could. To tie the whole outfit together, I borrowed my mum's Bonia bag she bought back in the 80's.

So here's my crazy day with the bloggers.

But first, meet the bloggers - Artika Raemi of whuddupartix.blogspot.sg // Liyana Atiqah of vintagefootsteps.blospot.sg.

All three of us are nurses of NP's nursing and well, that pretty much how we met.

Butterscotch cafe is located at Blk 164 Bukit Merah Central, opened from Tuesdays to Sundays. The place has a very nice and cozy ambience and they play a fantastic range of music too, which is just a plus point for me!

Basically we ordered the Cookies & Cream Latte ($5), the Pavlova ($12), Truffle Fries ( $9) and a plate of buffalo wings ($9).

I honestly think that the food is pretty overpriced so if you're not willing to spend, have lunch at somewhere cheap before heading here. The fries were so so really, nothing really fantastic though. But the Pavlova was just, wow. Amazing. Not worth all $12 but it was good. The buffalo

wings were pretty good too and worth all that $9.
