Bestie's 21st Birthday!

Happy 21st birthday my dear bestie!!! you look like a beautiful queen on your special day:) I am so happy I am able to help you in the preparations of the party to your dress outfit.  My wishes to you that you will remain jovial and carefree as always. I am also proud to see that you have grown into such a strong woman and met your love of your life who treats you like a real queen. i was so relieved that the video nithi and I made received so many positive comments ( check out the video on my facebook @ Roydon Ralph Shong)

Though my dear bestie looked like a queen, and as a fashionista myself I could not loose out to her right? I had to look classy and at the same time doing my best not to outshine the birthday girl. I went to a dark and simple look with the most minimal accessories and colours, But i mean my hair colour itself was already striking as it is.

Sorry for the lousy post, as I am so drained and exhausted from the party, as i stayed over for 3 days and had only 4 hours of sleep. My brain is literally dead and not working at all.

Top: Shirt- thin blue t-shirt from Topman

Purple Murple!

Purple murple >< Hi guys, I'm back but with purple hair!

I actually coloured my hair at home with the help of my beloved sister:) I bought the purple hair dye for about $15 for a medium tub at a shop( it is a box shop, you couldn't miss it.) in Scape underground. I was really very surprise how well the colour turned out for the price i paid for the dye. The sellers from the shop were really very nice and helpful in giving me detailed description in the different brands of the hair dye and which were better and cheaper. They were also really awesome as they helped me picked out a colour for my hair, to be honest i was kinda skeptical in the colour purple but hey " never try, never know" right?

I will definitely head back down for my next hair colour, and i'll be sure to remember the name of the shop as well as the photos:) Do leave a comment on what hair colour you think i should try next.

A picture speaks a thousand words!

We all know a picture can speak a thousand words.  How a picture is being captured or how a piece of art is drawn to the painter's imaginations. A piece of art can be  perceived in multiple ways depending on how one view it. This form of beauty is simply amazing, as the interpretations are endless and there is simply no one specific and correct view.

Taking for example the painting above, it was said to portray the ferocity of the tigers and how its their natural and incisive personality. How the tigers in the painting are violently preying in the innocent bull regardless of the situation they are in, where apparently they are at the edge of a cliff.

Well if it was up to me to give an opinion on the interpretation of the painting, i will think that it is a symbol  on how ugly this world we are living in right now is. I mean the tigers can be a representation of us humans, where we are ferocious in  our methods and ways in order to achieve and get what we want. Preying on the weak and frail to emphasise the idea of the higher power will always prevail and be the top of the food chain.  This timeless piece of art is a great representation that no matter how time changes or how much the society progresses, the fact that we are living in a man eats man world will always be the same. The same amount of violence, same ferocity, same idealogy.

Squad Goals!

Aren't we just like Squad goals!!! Went and surprise my dear bestie Saranya for her pre- 21st birthday surprise. Myself and another of my best friend met the day before and created a video for her which encompasses her life from when she was a baby up to now....  I must admit i am really very happy and proud of the final video product. The video will be up soon, once it is aired during her 21st birthday party.

After the awesome pre-birthday surprise we had we proceeded to Oblong. A very famous waffle cafe, where they have the most savoury red velvet waffle topped with a refreshing scoop of earl grey lavender ice cream (ice-cream of your choice but i like the earl grey one).

I have heard many great reviews as well as countless recommendations from friends to try out this delicious waffle from oblong but i am the type of person who needs to be forced to go down for me to try out any new stuff.

After a tummy-filling waffle session we headed for a #ootd photoshoot session. I never imagine that taking ootds could be infused with so much fun and laughter, the BEST ootd photoshoot session i ever had.

The lovely contrast of Green and blue in one photo!

                                                   Ground shot! ><

            Pre-Birthday girl ootd Photoshoot session for her by yours truly

After the intense and fun-filled photoshoot session we headed to a nearby hawker centre(Chomp Chomp) for a early dinner. The place is famous for it's cheap seafood and huge-ass water. Luckily we were there early, if not once the crowd starts coming in you can forget about getting a seat! We had another hearty and sumptuous meal! (snippets of chomp chomp food experience was on my snapchat).

Having done with our dinner we headed to one of my friend's home and chilled there for a while, playing xbox and PSP.

It was indeed a day to remember!

Wrapped Mind!

Went and watch the new x-men movie for the second time again because the movie was just too damn good.

Having the idea of the very first mutant on earth with accumulated powers over the centuries he lived made him seemed almost god-liked.  Hence, he having the idea of changing and " cleansing" the earth seemed like his calling.  He is wrapped in his own ideology that with the power he possesses he is able to rid the world clean.

I mean i don't totally disagree with his wrapped thinking. Think about it,  the world now is really turning into a polluted and infected wasteland. In many aspects the world looked " sick". Hence, if i were ever blessed to be bestowed with such power like the mutant in the movie and seeing the state  the world is in now i would have the same thinking.

Aside from that i felt that the movie had a lot of emotional twists and have you at the edge of your seat the world time. It really captures the attention of the audience the entire time ( unlike the third x-men movie).  Well, these are my side thinking and opinions.

As for my movie outfit i had a black t-shirt i got from Malaysia and my jacket from Zara. I wore this very jacket for the sole reason that it actually matches my hair colour ><

Oh before i forget! I am thinking of starting a Youtube channel that vlogs my travel as well as men's fashion and other lifestyle content.  So stay tune for my youtube update.

Street Goals!

Another baseball cap inspired look! Actually i was just super lazy to dress up and all. Being back from Krabi i was just not in the mood to dress up at all ><

I was attending an event at Suntec convention hall which was the IT fair. There wasn't much stuff nor booths there and in all honesty it was very boring and a waste of my time. Hence, my friend and i only spend about an hour or so walking around the convention hall.

We headed to town in the end and decided to catch a local movie titled " young and fabulous". Many of you guys may think that Singapore movies are stupid and
lacks quality but this movie was not only hilarious and had me laughing my ass off but there are elements of heart-warming moments. A movie to be watched indeed!

Okay so back to the outfit, i was actually going for a street causal look, as i was also very inspired by my vacation at krabi to dress simple yet trendy.

Sadly from the picture you guys are not able to see the design of the inner shirt i had on. I got it from Factorie and the T-shirt was designed with ombre prints with a huge "LA" printed on it.

To compliment my street look outfit i wore a denim jacket from H and M, and paring it with my maroon pants and nike shoes.

Paradise Day 2!

Day 2 of my little getaway trip to paradise island (Krabi). For the second day of our trip we decided to do some island hopping,we had a great deal on the package for the island hopping activity. For 7 islands with a buffet lunch included and transportation via a speed boat only costs SGD32.  The booth we signed with was located nearby our hotel just in front of the 711 store.

I mean are there even any words to start describing such paranoiac beauty of the clear waters and the soft white sands of one of the island we went to (Bamboo Island). This is where the sky meets the ocean and all you feel is total peace and serenity.

So what do you do besides being mesmerised by the scenic beauty? Well we do a beach photoshoot of course!

We also did a vogue inspired photoshoot by the rocks. As you can see we are total rookies  at being vogue, but we sure can dream!

Lets go on to my outfit choice. Well the white outer wear you guys see is a shirt i bought at Krabi itself! As for my singlet i got it from cotton on and shorts from Topman!

                                    Go to my instagram to view the video.

Isn't this just the ideal place to do some snorkelling, the underwater life was a sight to behold. The fishes were not afraid of us and they were swimming literally by our side. On top of that i saw some corals and sea urchins as well. The best part of this activity was i get to jump off the boat, i mean i aint no sportsman but something about jumping of the boat into the water really excites me!

As for the third day of our trip there wasn't much we can do as it was raining the entire morning! luckily we had a spa appointment in the hotel which was good as well had a really chill and relax day.  Just lazing around in the hotel room and a nice spa day.

It is indeed saddening for when the trip ended, but i am truly happy to be able to embark on this trip with my lovely secondary mates!!
