Christmas Wish List 2016!

Happy holidays everyone! Hope everyone had a fabulous time, spending quality time with the people you love.
I had a quiet time, and Christmas sort of jumped on me this year, since I was travelling a lot. Here's my Christmas wish list for this upcoming year!

View my Christmas wish list for 2012

#1: A new laptop

My current laptop (which I'm typing on at the moment) has a major crack in the middle, and the performance has deteriorated. Which is totally normal, considering that it's been with me for almost 3 years. I'm totally in love with The MacBook in Gold, but I think I'd probably honestly just get the 11-inch MacBook Air.
The Macbook is just so gorgeous to look at, and incredibly light, but the fact that it doesn't have USB ports is a major drawback for me. I mean, I need to be able to use my hard drive, and I usually store work on thumbdrives so it just isn't a good fit.
But it's so pretty...

#2: 2016 Time Planner

Time to get a new one! Last year, I had a gorgeous pink cloth planner with gold lettering in the front from Kikki K, and I'm actually a little disappointed to not be using that anymore. But I'm excited to have a new planner, and I hope to get a pretty one. So far, none of the Kikki or Typo planners have really excited me, but we'll see!

#3: Viktor and Rolf Bon Bon

It's got a very strong ultra sweet scent, which some people might not like. Also, most people prefer the lightly scented Flowerbomb, also by Viktor and Rolf. But I'm totally into this scent.

#4: Mont Blanc Legend Intense

This is my current favourite masculine scent. I like wearing male fragrances. For a while Hugo Boss was my go-to (Just Different and Boss Bottled Sport, hello!). But I'm in love with this one right now.

#5: Lady Dior in Lotus

Saving the best for last! While I love Chanel bags, the Lady Dior are my true lemmings. Maybe because the Chanel 2.55 is always seen everywhere, but I totally want the Lady Dior. Particularly the 2014 collection with a pearlized lotus shade and light gold hardware, inspired by the lotuses that Christian Dior saw in his hometown.
At least, that's the story the sales guy told me. Whether it's true or not, sounds like a nice story, no?

Intro Post

Despite the name, this blog is not about carousels or couture (although you never know, that might change?). Nobody likes to spend money on something, only to discover that it does not deliver what it has promised. I sure don't. So I start this blog with the hopes that perhaps it'll help someone find their holy grail. And maybe, I'll find my own on the way too. Expect to find beauty and skincare reviews, book reviews, movie reviews, and current obsessions. Oh, and a little couture here and there too.

Schwarzkopf Ultimate Colour 499 Dark Cherry review

TDLR Review:  I would not recommend this hair colour product at all, because the shade turned out nothing like the box. Also it is difficult to wash off.  NOTE: I have dark Asian hair, which might be the reason why it's not suitable for this product. So I'm back with another hair dye review! I've raved about the Liese hair dyes before ( Cassis Berry , Sweet Apricot , Antique Rose ), because those are super easy to use (I've appreciated that even more after finding out how difficult some at-home hair dye kits can be to apply). But I got suckered into getting a box of Schwarzkopf Ultimate Colour hair dye, because the models on Schwarzkopf hair dye boxes always have gorgeous shades of hair! I've used Schwarzkopf before, I've bought the Palette in Magical Blue Black (no review, only a haul). But I was disappointed with it, because there was only a faint sheen of blue, and the black faded from my hair quite quickly. The trouble with Schwarzkopf also is

Old Town White Coffee Ipoh Hor Fun review

  Who doesn't like Old Town White Coffee? It's so nostalgic, from the furniture they have to the food they serve. It's really like a throwback to the simpler times in Singapore. According to Wikipedia, Old Town White Coffee is the largest kopitiam restaurant chain in Malaysia and has over 180 outlets in the region. Can you believe that? I love their kaya toast and of course, their Ipoh Hor Fun. Why go to Penang when you can just enjoy the Hor Fun here? Normally I get those Ipoh Hor Fun that is served in rich gravy, with not much soup. But this one is served in a clear broth, which is perfect for a light meal that is also filling. At the end of it, you won't feel too full or bloated like if you had something richer. The kway teow is served with generous helpings of prawns and chicken shreds every time I go there (my favourite outlet is Playground at East Coast Park, the area that used to be Big Splash. There are 8 outlets in Singapore at the moment, and they ar
