Dandelion

I've always loved watching mommy when she gets ready to go out because she loves using different kinds of accessories to add colour to her outfits. Sometimes, I like to quietly go through mommy's accessory box, wear them and pretend to be a princess. I'd use her necklaces and put them on my head and pretend it's a tiara. Mommy did ask a few times if I wanted to pierce my ears so I too could have my own sets of earrings but I wasn't prepared (ok, I admit I was kinda scared of the pain...).

So on my 6th birthday last April, I finally decided that I was old and brave enough to pierce my ears. I was excited at the beginning but, oh my, was I shocked when they used that gun-like thingy to pierce my ears!



Anyway, I now have my own box of earrings and am planning to add more and other accessories too. Mommy goes to this site to check out and buy some of her stuff and I've taken a peek at it and found out that they really do have nice stuff.

Accessories are one of the best ways we can perk up our outfits into a more revamped look. We can use various types of accessories from sunglasses, scarves, belts and jewellery to make their outfit look completely new. Besides that, accessories also allow us to create different moods to our outfits from sassy chic to simply casual. This site mommy goes to has a line named Dandelion and if you love playing up your style with accessories, you will definitely fall in love with Dandelion products.

If you're clueless on how to style your accessories, let me give you 3 simple looks that everyone can pull together without much fuss.

The first and easiest for us ladies is trendy sunglasses. Sunglasses are perfect for ladies who want to enhance their facial features effortlessly. Mommy uses it all the time especially on days when she's in no mood to put on make up. Sunglasses hides away your pale face as well as add stylish touch to your outfit.



The second accessory that's easy to wear is the scarf. Although scarves are less popular in our country due to our climate, they're actually great to add colour to your outfits. There are various techniques women can tie their scarves around their neck for a fancier appearance. You can wrap it around your tank top collar or around your neck when you wear a dress and look fabulous all day long. You could also wear the scarves on your head like a bandana to create that funky look. Mix and match the scarves from the Dandelion collection for women to show off the relaxed, feminine side of you.



The third accessory and my favourite among the three looks is the use of belts. Instead of styling your jeans or trousers with belts, you can also wear it with your dresses and blouses. Wrap the belts around your waist to accentuate your body figure into looking slimmer than usual.




We can also pull together various stylish looks with other accessories available from the Dandelion brand. If you are wondering where to get your hands on these accessories, check out ZALORA as it offers Dandelion online for women accessories at the best price possible.

Enough fashion advice for today. Now excuse me while I continue browsing the site for more exciting accessories.

I suggest you do the same. Happy shopping!

A Fun Adventure: Part II

As I said in my last post, the 4th day of our trip was my favourite day and I considered it as my birthday present.

That was the day we went to DISNEYLAND!!

























Well, the pictures said it all, right? We all had an awesome time that day although it was raining. We spent almost the whole day there.

That night, from Disneyland, we took the train straight to Uncle Keith's apartment in the city. It had a nice view. You can see the the Tokyo Dome and on clear days, the Mount Fuji from the apartment.

On the way home, we had our last Japanese dinner before heading back to Malaysia the next day. We had to wake up really early to go to the airport as we had the morning flight to catch. 


Needless to say, this trip was more than gratifying. Here's hoping that that won't be my last trip to Japan!

Sayonara peeps! Till my next post.

A Fun Adventure - Part I

So in April, my birthday month, we traveled to Tokyo, Japan for Uncle Keith's wedding. The whole BibAni clan went including Nenek Rose, Aunty Fira and Uncle Yan. Tok Abah encountered some problems at the airport when we took off so he had to take another flight the next day.

Just landed in Tokyo




Once we arrived, we left our bags at the hotel and went straight out for sightseeing. The weather was nice and cool. The first place we visited was the Sensoji Temple. It was the end of the Sakura season but we managed to catch some of it. Mommy and dadda bought some cool souvenirs from there. We also had help from 2 cool guides, Nakano-San and An-San.

Our first sightseeing place


Wefie! (If you see anyone using monopods in Japan, they must be Malaysians. Lol!)


An-San, my new friend in Tokyo :)

Uguisudani station, the nearest station from our hotel. You can see our hotel at the background, Candeo hotel.
Shopping in Ameyoko.

We walked for a bit more until it was time to check into the hotel. Then, we just rested for the rest of the day.

The next day, Tok Mama and Adida went out early in the morning to fetch Tok Abah from the airport. We also got ready early and met up with them at the station where we had breakfast and waited for everyone else to come. After brunch, we browsed at the Ueno station and walked across the road to Ameyoko while waiting for the Franklins to arrive. When everyone showed up, we went for a snack at the Ueno Park just a few minutes walk from the station.

Picnic in the park with the Franklins.


After our outdoor activity at the park, the Franklins had to leave to meet up with the bride and her family. Us kids followed Tok Abah and Tok Mama back to the hotel to rest since Tok Abah practically disembarked from the plane straight to sightseeing with us. The rest of them went on to Akihabara for some shopping.




The 3rd day was THE day. We got up real early that morning and dressed up.

New Otani Hotel, where the wedding was held.


Uncle Keith married Rie in a beautiful ceremony in a fancy hotel in Tokyo. We had a whole table to ourselves and I experimented with Japanese food there. Surprisingly, they tasted great. I quite like it. Idzhar also made a new friend with Uncle Keith's nephew, Oscar (he calls him 'Ostar'). Everyone in our family wore our costumes from Pak Su's wedding except for me. I had on a new outfit.


Dadda bought Olaf at the Ueno station and since then Idzhar won't go anywhere without it.

The bride and groom :)

The flower girls and page boys - all Uncle Keith's nephews and nieces.

Uncle Keith wore the Kilt and Rie wore a nice white dress and changed into her traditional Kimono after lunch. A few others were also in Kilts and other traditional costumes. We all had our own place at the table and it was all named. Even Idzhar had his own place.



It was really thoughtful of them to prepare Halal food and non-alcoholic beverages for us .





Idzhar made a new best friend, Oscar




After lunch, everyone proceeded outside to the garden for some photo session. We took turns taking photos with the bride and groom and then went on to take our own photos. The hotel had a really nice garden and ponds with large Koi fish.

Enjoying the beautiful view with sweet lil' Millie :)






Err... not sure what Pak Su was trying to do here...

... and here...

The wedding didn't end there though. After the photo session, we all changed into something more casual and walked to a cafe/bar for the after party. Tok Abah, Tok Mama, Idzhar and I took the taxi. At the party, we got to mingle, talk and take more photos with the bride and groom, the Franklins and other guests.

Changed into their party outfits.






Before we went back to the hotel, we took one photo with everyone and then proceeded to take the train back to the hotel. It was an exciting experience for all of us and we went home exhausted but happy and glad.


The 4th day was my favourite day and I consider it as my birthday present.
