Bangkok Day 4

For my last day in Bangkok, I made sure to wake-up early so I could enjoy the morning sun by the pool, over-looking the city. My Mom left early for their field trip though so I just took photos of the hotel's pool area.

After my short swimming session, I ate my last breakfast at the hotel before heading out. Look at my plate.. Don't you think I ate too much? Haha.

Outfit of the day, laser cut top and floral shorts.

H&M Bangkok opened last September 29 at Siam Paragon so I made sure to drop by. Mom and I actually went there the day we arrived but there were too many people and the lines were crazy so I decided to go back first thing in the morning on my last day. It's easy to go there since the mall is connected to the train station.

Prayer areas in front of Central World.

These maps were my travel buddies..

My Mom took me to this restaurant near the hotel. I really loved the place and the food was great too. This was our last activity before I went back to the airport while my Mom stayed since her flight back to Brunei was scheduled the day after I left. I had a really nice time with my Mom there and the trip was truly memorable and one for the books.. Until my next trip.. :)

Bangkok Day 3

Hello everyone! Here are some of the photos I took during my 3rd day. I'm back in the country and still tired from the trip so that's all for now. Enjoy! :)

Heavy Breakfast. Stuffed myself with enough food to make sure I survive the long walks. Haha.

The view from our room. Sukhumvit Road, Bangkok's central business and shopping district.

Cheap finds!

Dinner date with my Mom at a Thai Resto in Central World. I just lurve Thai food! :)

Outfit of the Day

Bangkok Day 2

I mentioned in one of my tweets that I'm with my Mom in this trip but since she's here for a meeting, I had to explore the city on my own until she's done with her agendas. So expect mirror shots in my next posts since I had no photographer to take my outfit shots for me. Haha. And since it's not my first time here in Bangkok, I didn't sign up with any tours. Instead, I focused all my energy on shopping!!! Haha. Among the Asian countries I've been to, Bangkok is indeed the best place for shopping if you're into cheap, trendy stuffs like me. Well, I haven't been to mainland China so I'm not sure which place is more bargain friendly. So let's just talk about Bangkok. Haha. Anyway, when you go to their wholesale malls and  markets, you'd most probably find something nice in every store and the prices are surprisingly very minimal. You can even get a discount if you buy a minimum of 3 items in one store. Just like what I said in one of my tweets, you can never have enough money for shopping when you're here in Bangkok. Haha.

Outfit of the Day.

 I love the print on my skirt! I bought this from a night market the day we arrived.

 MBK, one of the shopping malls located beside National Stadium. I just went there to check the place but I didn't like the selection. Just not my type. Haha.

 Sky Train. If you're in a foreign country, all you have to do is follow train stations and you'll never get lost. Just make sure you follow the right directions.

Inside Platinum Mall. photos are not allowed here but luckily, I was able to snap a few.

Erawan. One of the high-end malls in Bangkok along Sukhumvit Road.

 Central World. The largest mall in Bangkok.

 A little of everything on my plate. This is just the first batch so don't underestimate me. Haha

Bangkok Day 1

Hello everyone! I'm still here in Bangkok and here's what I wore the day we arrived. This outfit is something very comfortable yet hints of surprises can be found in the details. Take my shorts for example, they're just the typical kind of shorts except that it's made of gold faux leather. I can imagine wearing these shorts to events with heels but it can also be worn on casual days depending on how you style it. My top on the other hand looks simple in front but when I turn around, you'll see that it's sleeves continue as a cape at the back. And then the print on my bag, matches the print of my top, making it more interesting. And oh, the touches of gold matches my shorts too. Travel photos coming up in my next post.. :)

 What I Wore:

cape top from Binkydoodles

gold shorts from Forever21,

bag from Bonia

Photo Diary: Miri, Malaysia

Yesterday I went to a park, saw beautiful flowers and animals, took a lot of pictures, ate a lot of sushi, went shoe shopping, bought pasalubongs, had my passport stamped, and most especially, spent quality time with my parents. I really love it when they're not busy for work (nyahaha)! Anyway, here are the photos I took from our trip to Miri, Malaysia. Watch out for my outfit post tomorrow.. :)

Hong Kong Ocean Park

I'm officially in love with taking pictures! I still haven't had enough time to just sit down and get to know my camera that's why I take every opportunity I can to use it. On to the pictures, let me take you to another photo tour at one of Hong Kong's most popular amusement parks--- Ocean Park! The land area covered by the whole park is so huge that if you plan to visit and you want to make the most out of it, you should allot one whole day there. Hanah and I decided to go there after lunch since we didn't want to get burned by the heat of the sun. But because we were too curious about the shopping streets outside the Central subway station, we decided to go out first and take a look around. We found a couple of interesting shops there so we ended up arriving at the Ocean Park at 4pm. Thank God, sunsets take place at around 8pm, we were able to take pictures and enjoy the view. We were not able to go to the other parts of the park though since we were already too tired and it was already getting late. So this is what happens when you try so hard to squeeze everything in to your itinerary! Oh well, at least I've got a lot of reasons to look forward to coming back. :)

My view from the cable car. I love aerial views!

 

Cable cars we've met along the way up to the thrill mountain.

Harbour City

When traveling, the best way to make your life easier is by wearing light comfortable clothing. But because I'm not the simple kinda girl, the least I could do in times like this is incorporate colors and textures into my outfit to bring interesting elements to the ensemble without giving myself a hard time just because of my "tiis ganda" outfit. I didn't bring enough clothes with me so I had to wear the stuffs I bought there. Haha. These shots were taken at the Harbour City right before we boarded the ferry going to Central. You can either cross from Kowloon Peninsula to Hong Kong island via train or ferry. So if you're in a hurry, you can always use the MTR to get to the other island but if you want to enjoy the view of Hong Kong's central business district from afar, their ferries are also fast and efficient. You don't even have to wait too long for the ferry to arrive. It'll only take you about 10-15 minutes to cross the other side of Hong Kong. Fare is only 2.50-4.00 HKD.

What I Wore:

shorts and bag from a random store in Hong Kong Industrial Centre,

gold belt from Mango
