Oxford & Cambridge.

Happy Easter everyone! We set off to Cam & Ox last Friday, and the trip is so rewarding! Not only did we manage to explore all the beautiful colleges and universities, we were given foodgasm too! I'm really satisfied with the pictures this time round, thanks to the perfect weather. Though the chill was unbearable, I thank the Sun for its wonderful glow. 


Auntie's Tea Shop, having the best Full English Breakfast


It was snowing, again!


The Eagle for the mega fish and chips. 


Shanghai 30s, really good Chinese food! 


Inside Christ Church. The scenes in Harry Potter were inspired by this grand dining hall. 


The Grand Cafe, the oldest cafe (1650) in England. Very nice strawberry tart. 


Also I made a short vid for the trip :) You can get the song in the video [here].



I just realized I remember all the cafe and restaurant names so well but completely forgot about all the university/colleges/churches' names! If you were to visit Cam & Ox, be sure to check out those food!

Wishing you a lovely Tuesday x

love, M

A week came and went. Stepping in April, we're overwhelmed with revisions! Just right before that crazy examination period, I will be heading to Oxford and Cambridge by the end of this week for some fresh air. I'm sure I'll have a great time, I wish you the same! 


#1. Marks and Spencer has the most beautiful flowers! It's been long I've bought this pale pink home. 


#2. Aztec prints haven't yet got out of my mind. Nothing beats a combo of it and pastel. This will definitely be brought home as my Summer wear! 


#3. Believe it or not, we have the most unpredictable weather here in the UK. It's even more unstable than a woman's swing! This afternoon I sat back in my room and saw snowflakes dancing around. For God's sake, it's almost April! 


#4. Doing the typical Asian pose in my new beige jacket. I though highly doubt if I would ever have the chance to wear it here! It's freezing. 


#5. Another treasure from Sunday's shopping! I love the small cut on the shoulders. 


#6. Floral hair clip from Claire's. I'm definitely thinking of having more hair styles. Screw the lazy particles in me! 


#7. Not very sure if I had posted this carousel before, but I really love it! 


#8. In anticipation of my return in 2 months time, I start collecting gifts for my loves. White works well on anything. 


#9. Pain Au Chocolat for next day's breakfast. It drives me to... wake up! 


#10. Visited the music room and played some notes after a really long time. I miss filling the room with melodies and my family's concentration and claps that followed. 


#11. Recently my hands got very dry. Fortunately, Vaseline came to the rescue. Speaking of hands, I actually love those with protruded veins (which means I love mine a lot hahaha!). 


#12. Grapes cost a bomb! Still, a very healthy snack. 

\

#13. Current favorite song - Wonderful Tonight. Best listened at night, on your bed, where there is nobody but you, where your mind has somebody but you somehow can't tell why.  


#14. We had accommodation inspection last Friday and I'm so happy that the inspector thought we're the best house among all! 


#15. Bonding time with Mr. Teddy. Can't tell you how much I love it! 

Have a lovely day ahead x 

love, M

Friday, I'm in love!

This week's Friday, I'm in love will see me featuring a really inspiring lady from Singapore - Fiona Sng. She's so good at capturing portraits (especially pretty models), making me want so badly to do photography for a living. Trust me, you will love her pictures as much as I do! Craving for a collaboration with this inspiring photographer! You can visit her site [here].


love, M

Nothing major going on lately, the same routine almost every simple day: classes, work, and gatherings with friends in between. I especially appreciate some precious personal time when classes end earlier and I go home hiding myself under the duvet for a bit then reading my favorite blogs with the company of my favorite playlist. We can go so productive doing things we love! 


#1. Finally scrapped up the last bit of this delicious strawberry jam and decided that the jar looks pretty cool to be collected. 


#2. Streaming pages and watching dramas during free time. I think I over pampered myself! 


#3. Homemade sandwiches make me happy. A sense of accomplishment always follows after the first bite! 


#4. Restructured my shelf because I was bored like that. 


#5. Extra highlight to this dead rose which is the first in the basket! Hopefully more colors to come. 


#6. Spring has come but I don't get the warmth at all. Knitwear is still the ultimate staple. 


#7. Very reluctant to start my Law assignment, not something a Business student would like! 


#8. Cold days just make you go aaah, let's just not wash the hair today again


#9. One of my favorite pieces from the boyfriend. 


#10. Pinterest go live. 


#11. Snatched this mustache fabric from Primark at only £8! I can see myself pairing it with tights and sneakers. 


#12. Bought this months ago but never really started shooting. Settling the battery issue today and hopefully film photography embraces me once again with open arms! 


#13. The locals just aren't afraid of cold! All stores already had Spring and Summer outfits on display. I add this to my denim collection. Loving the pale blue! 


#14. My new canvas shoes with laces! H&M flats are so affordable and pretty! 


#15. Picking this floral shorts out soon! It's a gift from my sister.

Going to spend the rest of the afternoon eating pizzas and catching on dramas. You can view all my Lately posts [here]. Happy mid-week!

love, M
