I went to Peranakan Museum during Vesak Day (this Wednesday) and took some photos of the surroundings. I didn’t go for the paid exhibition. I might return just to explore the paid exhibition though. Let’s see if I ever get time…

Well, nothing much have changed in the museum and I was kind of bored halfway through. Someone asked if I was bored and I said, “No, I am just tired.” Now that I think back, I was probably really bored lol.

There was some workshop thingy whereby we can do braiding ourselves and this is what I made!

Took some photos of nice architecture too…

Don’t know why I am seeing chickens at town (City Hall) area but yeah. It’s quite white though.

I also tried a new style that I was referencing based on Kim Ji Won airport fashion – white top with blue jeans. Well, I wore it with leggings jeans instead. I asked my friend to take a full body photo and sent it to my female friends and they said it don’t look too off and actually looks nice on me. Haha. It will be good for days when I don’t feel like dressing up or on days when I want to wear several of my pretty jewelleries haha. 🙂

I went to small muji exhibition and took some photos when I was there. It’s quite interesting to see the miniatures and designs using Muji products. It’s currently at Plaza Singapura Muji store if anyone is interested.

I didn’t bring my camera but I used my iPhone 13 Pro and was able to take some good photos with it.

I went for a haircut on last Saturday at Walking on Sunshine. I also opt for hair treatment and finally did my first ever hair treatment. It is especially more significant since I paid for it. Well, those who knows me will know that I usually don’t pay for spa/facial/treatments because I am a cheapo lady haha. Well, to be honest, I know so many ladies who spent thousands in a year on all these treatments along with manicure/pedicure. For me, I spent that amount on really good skincare and now expanding to haircare.

Anyway, my hairstylist, Ji Young, met me the second time and she remembered me. She said that I looked different. I looked like I am glowing and looked way better than last time I met you. Haha all these self work and glow up efforts are significant and has shown results consistently. 🙂

Anyway, it was a good haircut and scalp treatment. Will I go for the same treatment again? Probably yes for the express and cheaper version. I do need to tell my hairstylist that I don’t want the haircut to be this short though.

I got the Twilly d’Hermès Eau Ginger Eau de parfum back in 2021 and I hardly use it. Well, I got it at launch and among all the Twilly perfume, I like it the most. It has a nice refreshing scent when I tried it in store. However, after buying it, spraying it on myself and going out with it, I realised I am not a fan of it… So I stopped using it for a really long time. Well, I still try to use it whenever possible – aka hardly use it.

I sprayed it again this morning and hmm, it actually smells nice to me. I know it has a rather strong scent so I am spraying lesser on my clothes as compared to other scents. I usually sprayed about 12 times for my entire outfit but for this perfume, I make sure I only spray 10 times. I’m liking the smell when I first spray it on my outfit while wearing it so let’s see how it feels like at the end of the day. It will be nice if I can finish it somehow haha.

Rui Yun was telling me that it has been trending on Xiaohongshu (Little Red Book – China version of Instagram on social media) that some luxury brands perfume and what luck they bring in. She told me Hermes perfume is supposed to bring wealth luck. Whoa, I sprayed Le Jardin de Monsieur Li Eau de toilette from Hermes on the same day she told me hahaha. I need more wealth luck sia. Haha. 🙂 Other than my Hermessence perfume (which I stopped using now and only use when I travel since it is quite portable), I love their Garden series perfume.

I’m trying to stop myself from buying more perfume because I have been acquiring quite a few bottles of perfume. Now I probably need to plan to store them somewhere… I am also trying to finish my existing perfume too. I finished the Jo Malone English Pear and Freesia 30ml some time ago but I think all other perfumes are still quite full. Okay, maybe my Le Labo Citron 28 perfume is like half gone. It is a 50ml bottle so that means around 25ml is used. I really like that perfume since the start. Pretty sure it is nothing to do with Seoul being one of my favourite cities in the world.

Anyway, I don’t spray perfume directly on my skin as I really do not want to cause eczema or any skin conditions. However, that means it is harder for the perfume to dissipate so I need to spray more on my clothes to get similar effect. The downside? I will end up using more of my perfume and gosh, perfumes are not cheap. Lol.

Anyway, I am not sure if the perfume has changed its smell or I have a change in preferences. One thing for sure is that I will be using the Twilly perfume more often in future…

Update: The perfume smell lasted the whole day. It’s similar performance as my Le Labo Citron 28 perfume…

I went to the Tulipmania exhibition at Flower Dome, Gardens by the Bay last weekend. It is always very nice to see one of my favourite flowers. Unfortunately, I feel that the amount of tulips they displayed is lesser than previous years. Nevertheless it is still nice to spend some time with my favourite flowers. I can totally see myself trying to grow tulips in my future home. 🙂 If I can’t grow it, I might end up buying real ones and displaying them.

I took some photos and posted them on my Instagram, thetreblestory. So here they are!
