I won’t deny it – I have a crush on Don Draper [Don Draper the character, not Jon Hamm the actor], so you’d just have to put up with all the Mad Men-related posts on this blog. Here are some amazing behind-the-scenes shots that Scott sent my way from Rolling Stone: Sweet mother of god. [...]

A Lion-Hearted Girl
While some people associate smell with the places they’ve been, because I travel alone a lot, I associate music with the places I’ve been. Whenever I hear Bahamadia-anything, I’m reminded of the excruciating 33-hour journey I spent travelling from Austin after SXSW back home; when I hear Mark Ronson, I remember the time we drove [...]
The Universe is Indifferent
The reason you haven’t felt it is because it doesn’t exist. What you call love was invented by guys like me, to sell nylons. You’re born alone and you die alone and this world just drops a bunch of rules on top of you to make you forget those facts. But I never forget. I’m [...]
Because I Could Use Some Hot Chocolate…
Have a good week, kids!
The New is Old Again
I was trailing after a friend as she shopped in New Look when, to my horror, I saw a top that resembled something my Mum made me wear when I was eight. Fashion has come a full circle, and I, of course, upon realising how many years had passed since I wore something like that, [...]
Love Lockdown
It’s been some time since I went for any music-related of any sort in Singapore for various reasons, but thanks to one free ticket from Amanda, I found myself at Singfest with my brother [whose ticket I paid for. Aren't I the best sister ever?] twiddling our thumbs in anticipation of Kanye West. I listen [...]
Me & My New York City
While people go on and on and on about a pair of shoes or a ring [admittedly though, I'd give up a lot of things for this wicked awesome YSL ring], I, in case you haven’t noticed yet, go on and on about New York City. Awesome photo by me! And while a lot of [...]
Forget the Queen, God Save Alicia Keys
I’m putting together a mood board for another yet very exciting project I’ve been asked to work on, and because my clients referenced Alicia Keys, I looked up her recent photos and to my horror, I found this, and a lot more resembling this: I don’t know what’s up, Alicia, but I can be your [...]
Heart of the Matter
One of the people I can listen to no matter what I’m doing or where I am in the world is India Arie. Her voice and her songs have taken me through journeys – both emotional and physical and I don’t think it’s humanly possible to get sick of listening to her, and one of [...]
Imagine Me & You
“Everyone promises you happily ever after… but life turns into a different kind of fairy tale.” “It’s not you leaving that’s going to kill me. It’s you loving someone more.” “You know I want you to be happy. And more than anything, I wanted to be the cause of happiness in you.” “Luce: What’s your [...]
