Belting right!

Belt has been a hot item for some time together with the higher waist line from the 80s'. I am not sure about the position of the belt every time in front of the mirror... something is not so right.

Lucky has given me a little styling advice!

Cath Kidston Crush


I have a craze for Cath Kidston recently. In particular, while I am packing for a trip. I heart their travel kits, the bags and the scarf.


Vintage Rose happens to be my favourite ♥

Summer Dinner

Something crunchy and fresh will be the best for a hot summer night!

Shrimps and cucumber stir fried

Ingredients:
1 clove of garlic, minced
2 small pieces of ginger
a wedge of onion, finely diced
1 cucumber, cut into angular wedges
12 tiger shrimps
  1. Butterfly the shrimps, dry with kitchen paper, mix in 1/2 teaspoon of corn starch and 1 teaspoon of fish sauce
  2. Pill partial skin off from the cucumber, cut it into angular wedges. Angular wedges give the cucumber cover with the yummy favor during stir fried but remain a crunchy bite!
  3. Turn up the heat, pour in 1/2 tablespoon of oil, in go the shrimps, sprinkle salt, pepper and a dash of Chinese cooking wine. Leave the shrimps out of the pan while still semi-raw.
