Oroton treasure cuff

Absolutely loving cuffs! New Oroton treasure cuffs purchased in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. A striking piece - this futuristic design has a cylindrical feature with pave crystals. The photographs does not do this item justice. Absolutely gorgeous on.

Chanel goodies

Can you tell I absolutely cannot get enough of this brand? Gotta love Duty Free!

Juicy dog bone couture

I was never even aware that Juicy Couture had a dog brand of its own (Dog Bone Couture), but when I saw the range I immediately fell in love. I knew they were well-suited to Gucci's girly and playful personality. So, now she has a brand new leather purple collar and leash. The Juicy Couture charms that hang on both items are simply divine!

Chloe signature parfum set

On my way back home, I was thrilled to have discovered a Chloe signature parfum set in the KLCC Airport Duty Free. I knew I had to purchase as I had completely run out of the perfume, and more importantly, if I was to purchase the 100ml bottle, I would receive the gift box and body lotion completely free! Score.

Long neck village

Upon a short day trip to a small 'Long Neck Village' I was shocked at just how women and even children (as young as five years) wear these heavy coils around their tiny necks! These people I refer to as Long necks (Kayan) are divided into a subgroup of the Karenni people, of Burma. Women of the various Kayan tribes identify themselves by their different form of dress. The Kayan Lahwi tribe are the most renowned as they wear ornaments known as neck rings, brass coils that are placed around the neck. These coils are first applied to young girls when they are around five years old.

Although I was fascinated at the sight before my eyes, it somehow appeared to me that these women and children weren't all that happy. The discontent and lack of expression spoke a thousand words. Perhaps it was because they are merely treated as a tourist attraction, when really this is their tradition and way of life.

Thai Buddhist temples

Apparently nearly 95% of Thailand's population is a Buddhist. Buddhist temples are everywhere in this touristy, Asian country. The temples itself are characterized by tall golden stupas.

The focus of this religion is on man, not gods; the assumption is that life is pain or suffering, which is a consequence of craving, and that suffering can end only if desire ceases. The end of suffering is the achievement of nirvana, often defined as the absence of craving and therefore of suffering, sometimes as enlightenment or bliss.

Thai noodles

Kao Soy, the dish I could not get enough of in the Land of Thai. Spicy, but delicious! Paying a small price of just 25 baht, equivalent to approximately AUD 83 cents, who could resist.

Volunteering

My favourite P3 Class

Eye-mask Activity; where I got them to decorate the masks I had taken with me. Sadly, the last class I had with them.

The adorable little kids I was fortunate enough to meet on this recent volunteering trip to Chiang Mai, Thailand. Such happy, positive, well-behaved and loving children, considering the circumstances and poverty they were placed in. I was there to teach them, but instead they taught me so much more! 

What's for dinner?

Dinner with Lulu at Jojo's Restaurant. We both ordered Sirloin steak with chips, but due to the waiter getting the order wrong several times, we were given Sirloin steak, chips and salad, with the extra charge. They're lucky I was extremely hungry!

International gifts

Gucci Firenze 1921 twill scarf, Ted Baker frill layered cuff gloves.

Upon my catchup session at the fine Authentic Greek Restaurant, Kafe Meze with my sis Hayley, I was presented with these surprise international gifts - all the way from London. This photograph does not do the items justice. Simply gorgeous! Love you sissy bro if you're reading this xxxx

Eggs benedict

If you had to choose your ideal breakfast, what would it be? Mine? Simple. An Eggs Benedict with salmon and loads of hollandaise sauce. Photographed a few months ago in Danks Street, Sydney.

Colour blocking

Colour blocking: Loud and proud colour combinations make for a dynamic, confident look.

There are people who are somewhat afraid of wearing colour, and I will admit I am one of them. I love my nudes, browns and blacks, but colour blocking is back for Spring/Summer, and what does that mean? I will attempt to reach out of my comfort zone and be.... more colourful!
