Travelling back in time, let's rewind a year from now


Almost a year ago, I got the Canon and I took a lot of pictures to test it out. One of the days was a perfect sunny day.
A year on and the weather isn't sunny, it isn't warm. It's raining instead. But tomorrow is another sunny day at long last. The sunshine won't last for this week so I will be making the most of it tomorrow.
It's these little moments we should cherish so that when we look back, we can smile at them and be thankful about another thing out of the many many other things we're blessed with.

 I haven't posted these pictures from last year. They were still sitting in its folder. After stumbling upon them today, these memories raised a smile and when I found out that these were taken almost a year ago, I was stunned. I remember the day as if it was yesterday.





















DKNY Sweet Delicious Pink Macaron (Limited Edition)




DKNY Sweet Delicious Pink Macaron is a yummlicious, engulfing, innocent and girly scent. Its baby pink coloured bottle reflects the scent very well and my first impressions from it made me imagine this as a wonderfully blended balanced sweet macaron scent. I was fascinated because it ticked all my assumptions and caught me off guard. I didn't expect this to be delicate.  DKNY has 3 limited edition perfumes, each on different desserts. The one I got here is based on a pink macaron, which I have yet to try.

The top notes remind me of the outer shell of a macaron. First impressions count. It's captivating, it's sweet but not overpowering.
The middle notes remind me of the macaron's filling. You know that sweet layer in between the two outer shells? It explodes with sweeter, slightly more delicate scents, as if unravelling different types of flavours.
And the last notes leave a lasting impression. If this was a macaron, let's just say I would be craving to taste it again just to go through this rollercoaster of flavourful scents.

My Twinings Tea Box & Bvlgari's Jasmin Noir


Was it really a month ago since I last posted? Just about... and I can't believe it. Every couple of days I tell myself today I am going to post something! But then something comes up and my schedule is filled. Who would have thought life after university would be just as busy? 


I apologise in advance if my posts are not as detailed and not as 'great' as my other posts. I used to spend more time with my posts but nowadays I am far too busy, so as I said in my posts earlier, I will let the pictures do more of the talking. I'll rate, I'll recommend and I'll show you my latest finds. I hope you'll enjoy them ^.^


So two things I discovered a few months ago. 
Firstly, this Twinings tea box. Goodness, is it not so cute? They had other sizes too, the largest one I believe is covered in velvet. It is exquisite. I got the smallest size because I have no room to store a huge tea box and I love its petite-ness. Now everytime I'm at a tea place, I get a couple of tea bags so that I can put them in this tea box. 
Think of a jewellery box for tea.... !
















And then I found these Bvlgari fragrances a couple of months back, or let's just say they found me. From the first time I sprayed it on, I told myself... One day I am going to have that and I am going to start saving for it from now because they are so so amazing. And so I ended up getting it.
I LOVE Jasmine scents. They are so beautiful, so mysterious and mature. When the shop assistant told me that Bvlgari made this to resemble Jasmin Noir (Black Jasmine) because there are no Black Jasmin flowers.... I suddenly realised what a perfect fragrance this was and what a creation this is from Bvlgari...! Because the name of the perfume describes the scent so well. This is a Jasmine perfume with a twist. I have smelt so many Jasmine scents but none resembles these two perfumes. They really are fragrances made from a jeweller. It's so rich, so elegant and this is now my favourite evening scent.
