Happy Chinese New Year!!

Hi all!!

Chinese New Year is approaching real soon and I’m sure most of you are looking forward to it! To us Chinese, it’s time to get dressed in new clothes and go visiting for our ang pows! :P And for the others, take advantage of the public holiday and take a good rest off work!

I bet most of you are still doing last minute shopping for CNY? Hee, I already bought my CNY clothes while back in BKK, just need to co-ordinate the outfits. Will be visiting on the first 2 days of CNY and hence need to come out with 2 outfits. :P Thinking to start posting look book style photos soon, and I shall start from CNY!

 

Here are some good reads by MFP on CNY! Check them out! XD

It’s going to be a brand new year. For the Chinese, everything starts anew from CNY itself. Regardless of what have happened the last year, it’s always time to start afresh in the brand new year! Read up on a inspiring article by Bianca!

CheongSam taken a modern twist. Looks great! But I do somehow prefer the traditional style. :P

Twelve Cupcakes

20120112-215748.jpg

Passed by Twelve Cupcakes during work and decided to try out their cupcakes. Love the smell in the store, yummy cake smell! Many flavors available for selection! I got the Red Velvet with Vanillia Cream Cheese topping and it taste awesome! The cake is moist and not dry. The flavor is just right and not too sweet! Easily one of the best cupcake I’ve tried so far.

The only downside is that the cupcakes are a lil pricy. For $3 per cupcake and $3.50 for the special flavors. Still worth it, good to buy once in a whole. But if you buy a dozen, its cheaper at $33.

I really like the cupcakes though, think I will consider buying then for special occasions. I think I’ll rate the cupcakes a 4 out of 5 stars! They do provide customizations too.

On a side note, the staff there are really sweet and nice too! Very friendly!
