You know the drill: the #TimelessStyle – a solid and dependable little black dress, trusty black pumps, complementing blazer and a string of pearls around my…

How Do I Look Asia: When Fashion fixes not only what’s on the outside but also what’s on the inside
One of my earliest struggles when I was still in my teens and early 20s is finding who I want to be. When I was younger, I pretty much tried every 90s trend there is: the platform shoes, the plaid skirts, the fisherman’s hat and even rode on the grunge (flannel shirt-tied-around-my-waist) trend. I figured myself as stylish…

Just when I thought the grindhouse is the epitome of “boring” and “without any emotion” at all — a great cheer exploded on the busy and paper-filled floor of my penthouse office. The reason: human resources has declared that Fridays will be–starting tomorrow and every Friday thereafter– will be known as dress down Fridays. With…

Dazed and Confused.

Not only it is effing confusing, it is also annoying. Anyway, this anecdote doesn’t have anything to do with today’s rant. I just felt…
Me, today – 06 October 2011
Today (05 October 2011 in the US), the world has lost one of its greatest visionary, Steve Jobs. I only own one Apple product, an iPod (I can’t afford a mac or an iPhone) but that pink little thing containing about 1,000 songs has been with me in all my travels, late night cramming sessions…
Me, today – 28th September 2011
Here’s me, after the great storm that was “Pedring” Was trying to keep it preppy and still office appropriate. After all, I work for someone whose SOLE definition of office attire is a pair of slacks, collared blouse, coupled with blazer and black pumps. This incessant push for me to conform is annoying me to…
