Dear Dayre,
OMG. I have finally managed to stop all the backdating and I'm FINALLY FINALLY UPDATING ON THE DAY ITSELF.
πππππ
What an achievement (and nightmare). I don't know why I even bother but I do.
It's only been less than a week since we flew back from Seoul! Though it already feels like ages ago.
And when I got back, I immediately got busy with TVD's new arrivals for June #1, which are all up on site already. It's our first major collaboration with a big name like Samsung, and I'm so excited because the give-away/contest is so good!
We put in a lot of effort to pair up the different colored Nx Minis with our apparel for the shoot!
Two sets are gonna be given away in the month of June, you just need to spend $50 in a single order and like/share our FB album! π
I've been really happy since TVD got back into operation properly, though I'm having trouble juggling the blogging commitments together with the shop now.
But thanks to the new website and platform which is soooo much easier to use, and also the new implementations (no more IB or ATM), the workload is more manageable now and I'm mostly focusing on the creative aspect of the business, from sourcing designs to manufacturing to styling to photoshoots and marketing!
I still can't let go completely of the photo editing even though I have the help of the wonderful folks at TFT Studio recently for some of our shoots. To me, the image sells the product so it is of utmost importance!
So far the experiences on the new shopping system have been mostly positive, but I know we still need to work a lot on our customer service. This really requires constant feedback from me to my staff whenever I see unsatisfactory responses or receive emails directly from customers who require my attention in solving their issues.
πͺπͺπͺ
It's a non-stop work in progress!
I can't wait for our new designs to arrive and be launched. There are so many new pieces that I'm super excited about! Gosh. When are they cominggggg! π³
Random change of topic: Spent a nice afternoon out at brunch with my η½ε η after #SlimCouture session.. First session after Seoul and I put on weight FML π Luckily the measurements didn't go up that much but I told YZ we have to start dieting for real… From tomorrow onwards. HAHA.
Oh yes, I'm wearing the new Benefit They're Real Push-Up Liner today! π I really do quite like it but it smudged a tiny bit on my undereyes.
We headed to The Missing Pan, which I've been interested to try in for a long time now!
Stupid iOS maps directed us to the wrong end of Bukit Timah road FML. If you use iOS maps, please search for 615 Bukit Timah Road even though the address is 615D Bukit Timah road! It's right in the same row of shophouses as Choupinette next to Coronation Plaza.
Lucky for us we got a parking lot almost immediately! βοΈ
Ordered the French toast salpicone and eggs ben with ham!
Maybe I should have picked the eggs ben with smoked salmon cos that one is highly-raved in many online reviews. The ham version was decent but Choupinette's is much better IMO.
The French Toast however was a super winner! πππ
Unfiltered pictures from Nx mini!
You really have to order the French Toast: It is delicious! French toast stuffed with chicken sounds weird but the flavours totally worked together somehow. Savoury, with hints of fresh sweetness from the fruits and maple syrup.
And deep fried goreng pisang nuggets! π YZ was really impressed with the French Toast too!
The portion is extremely generous too! Though it costs $19. But I thought it's pretty worth it! I've yet to taste anything similar elsewhere.
We may be back just for the French toast and to try other items on the menu too!
Here's the address! π³πππ―π΄βοΈ
Full review for the blog, soon!
Aiyo too many things to blog about. I must be more hardworking and update more frequently!!
I also ran into a cute reader at The Missing Pan! *waves* π
Thanks for coming over to say hi! βΊοΈ I'm always happy and honoured to meet readers too even though I behave very calm and steady π
It has also dawned on me that some of my readers are sooooo young! I think the youngest readers I've met were in secondary school. That's like more than 10 years younger than me FML.

Crazy selfie time!
Ok normal one βΊοΈ
You know this is one of my favourite dresses from TVD so easy to slip on and go! And we are gonna be restocking it soon! πππ
Lemme tell you a secret: I love milkshakes but hardly drink them cos they're so fattening and filling π
Creamy Oreo milk shake! Kinda
expensive at $8. πͺπͺπͺ
I'll only order such kinds of food and drinks with YZ cos he'll finish them up for me π
This morning, I woke up earlier than YZ who was sleeping extremely soundly and decided to prank him by taking a photo of him with his own phone and setting it as his lock screen πππ
