Having become one of many sought after designers in Malaysian fashion industry today, as always, Fiziwoo never cease to impress us collection after collection. This year, Fiziwoo's ready-to-wear capsule collection was inspired from stories told by their parents during childhood, thus forming an exciting hybrid of curated vintage sentiments and the contemporary. Sleek silhouettes, structured capes with names of each design mimicking the nostalgic allure of actual raya delicacies like dodol (a sweet confection), lemang (glutinous rice), pineapple tarts, rempeyek (a deep-fried cracker), and semperit (otherwise known as 'dahlia cookies'). Witty indeed huh!
Last year, I went really traditional with this kebaya nyonya I got from Shah Alam. In fact, I got to don it again this year and keep Eid real with this one. I've always loved anything that has incredible attention to details and I know I can rely on Fiziwoo to always cater me that.
Extremely filled with gratitude that I got to experience Ramadan and embrace the spirit of Raya again this year and while this self still feels the slight inadequacy of giving my all, I do hope that we meet the month of towering blessings again. Insya'Allah.

Just like that, the future knocks on your door, and invites itself in for tea. I waited three years of my tertiary life to receive a piece of paper and a handshake. I realized, however, even after my convocation, I still had nothing figured out.
In the spirit of the sultry season, it is all about embracing your fun side and shifting away from conventional styles. Less is more. Still, I choose to layer up this Summer. We all know how sometimes, lilac can make you look washed-out. Unless, of course, it comes with a hint of iridescence. Then, I'd say play with textures! Mixing textures can be a daunting task, but if done right, you can mount really amazing looks. I am humbled to have been exclusively invited by Eight Slate to their first ever Pop-Up Concept Store Press Event just last week. It was indeed a pleasure meeting the woman behind the up-and-coming local label - Savina Chai (who ensured I stay hydrated with a bottle of citrus chia and a gourmet cupcake while I browsed through pieces from their latest collection). Thank you again, to the Eight Slate team for the invite accompanied by warm hospitality. I hope June calls for even bigger and better things, for me, and everyone else. Stay gold. x Labels: CharlesKeith, Grey, Knit, Lilac, Zara TANGERINE TANGO

Reserving tangerine as my citrus of choice this Fall. Dabbled this bright hue with a simple white crisp separate instead of going for an all-over. I especially love the embellished neckline and gathered sleeves. Think minimal. Avoid accessorising. As the saying goes: "Go bold or go home!"
Have you seen my Karl Lagerfeld in abstract? Want one for yourself? And I have been receiving questions on what are my plans now that my days as a Graphic Design intern are over. But first off, Juicy Couture - I am all set for you tomorrow! Labels: Fall, Outfit, Tangerine, Zara IN CHECK WITH PASTELS

Just last weekend, I was at Mod Kebaya checking out their 2014/2015 collection. I can't wait to reveal to you what I personally picked out for Hari Raya this year. Just a hint though - think bold monochromes with a pop of emerald, sheer sleeves and layered organza.
I apologize for the undefined hiatus time and again. Down to my last six weeks of internship. I have never regretted turning down my interview with Robe Raiders. (Or maybe I do?) But I have been exposed to doing different types of media - both print and web. One of the most challenging task yet was to design an infographic in 3D. What?! Anyway, what is your take on this? I love how the uneven draped panel flatters my waistline.
