Singapore!

As you will tell from the hair frizz I am in Singapore!

This is officially day 2. Let us not talk about day 1 - despite my willingness to get out and about I opted to have a "quick nap" and woke up at midnight. Whoops!

Day 2 has been determined "Shopping Day". A day is not enough time - the amount of luxury malls and tempting opportunities is mind-blowing - but I have to cut myself off and move on to focussing on proper sightseeing for the rest of the trip.

So far there has been one splurge and some shopping in Watsons for makeup and eyelashes. There is a part 2 visit to Watsons scheduled for later this afternoon as I am considering Rachel K CC cream (good idea?) and perhaps a side trip to get SK-11 Facial Treatment Essence. Back in my YouTube days I remember someone writing a comment and telling me about how incredible this was and as I walked up and down Orchard Road today I kept seeing the brand everywhere. Let's take it as a sign that the shopping Gods are trying to transmit...spoken like a true Rebecca Bloomword.

In terms of what I wore, it was the standard ensemble - dress and blazer. The dress is very pretty and new from Topshop. It's a blush coloured paisley lace print with a corset style top half and thin straps. I like the shape - not a flared skater skirt style but more of a straighter line. Some might not like that but skater style dresses sometimes make me feel self-conscious - in a "I'm 32 but dressing like I am 15" kind of way. Ah I wish...

Bra-wise, and I must mention this because it's important, I am wearing my strapless Wonderbra. This is an incredible bra and one that I would recommend for all sizes. It boosts rather than flattens, and unusually for a strapless, stays up. I feel like I have mentioned this before but its probably more a case of the fact that I rave about it to my friends.

Onto the pics...I am a bit pale but I am avoiding fake tan these days and trying to embrace my natural colour. *trying*

Oh, and a sneak preview of the splurge item. Excuse the cheese factor of this picture.

This was a very welcome belated anniversary gift :)
