Ruching

Went to a friend's wedding 2 weeks ago and since the ceremony starts at 4pm which is a bit earlier than the usual Chinese weddings, I need something lighter than my usual LBDssss (yea I have a habit of getting a lot of black)... so I opted for something as close : Grey with a lot of ruching to get the sliming effect that I usually get from wearing black =P

Trattoria Mercatto

Went to Mercatto at Eaton Centre last Thursday for Lunch since we'll be spending the day shopping there and why would I not be at work on a Thursday you ask, because my Dad is here from Hong Kong for a month long vacation and we took a week off to show him around. Ben practically work next to Mercatto but have never been and been craving to try it out, while I was excited to go because their executive Chef is Robert Rossi from Top Chef Canada (♥ that show).

As soon as I enter, I fell in love with the decor with all the rustic wooden table, metal chairs and bar but since it was such a nice day, we decided to sit in the patio.

Secret Garden

A secret garden in a concrete forest 

o(^_^)o

I know it's only the City Hall rooftop, but I would like to think of it as my secret garden.

This was my first time coming up here and was surprise to find no one there while Nathan Phillips Square down there was packed. It was so much cooler and relaxing up here... I would love to come back with a drink and a book to enjoy a nice afternoon

o(^_^)o

You may have seen me wearing this dress here with a belt, but it was way too hot that day and wanted something flowy, so I just skip the belt altogether.

Hermes wannabe

I don`t think I`ll be able to afford a Hermes handbag in my life time since it`s the same price of a small apartment (O_o)"

So I have been wanting to get my hands on one of this Canvas version called Banane Taipei that have been all the rage in Asia. It was sold out everywhere and have a waiting list from their website.... then a few weeks ago, I bump onto a site that have limited color stock with free shipping to Canada & US.

And while I just check back and they had more color available... should have waited a bit longer.

Outfit Details: 

Necklace - F21; Dress & Bracelets -H&M; Bag - Banane Taipei; Sunglasses - Prada.

Work Leftover

Sometime during Summer, I like to getaway with wearing lighter summery dresses to work which I do try to keep it more formal by wearing a blazer or light sweater in the office 

(or throw on a pair of tights for colder weather)

So by tossing the jacket, I'll have a casual comfy outfit to go out after work cause sometime you just don't feel like changing (yes I can be lazy) So here's my work leftover, work outfit leftover =P

Got this dress back on my trip to Orlando here.

e11even

Went to e11even with a few friends 2 weeks ago since I really wanted to try their crab cakes (^_^).

The decor was very modern with contemporary furnishing, you are welcome by a huge glass wine cellar as you enter from the inside entrance or on your way to the washroom.

Love the mirrored by the bar, even if you are not seated to have a street view, you'll be able to get a really good look from that =P

love the huge "square" light that was as long as the bar table, such a simple statement piece

Very cool ipad wine/drinks list

The guys ordered beer while me and my gf shared a bottle of red (forgot too take pic)

The bread was so good, we probably ask for 4 of these and there was only 5 of us =P

This round cutie was warm, perfectly golden on the outside with a super soft and moist inside w/ just a sprinkle of salt on top which gave it the perfect texture and contrast to the slightly sweet milky bread.

Kamasutra

I love Indian food but mostly bought take out and this was my first time going to an Indian restaurant in Toronto. As usual I bump into a dealfind coupon and read some review.... here I am at Kamasutra a few weeks later.

Better decor than I have expected =P

Feel like wine wouldn't really go with curry so ordered beer instead.

Ben decided to be adventurous and order an Indian Beer.... it was sort of strange tasting, a bit herb-y spicy tasting and really not my cup of beer O_o"
