5 ways to travel like a Jet-Setter

-
Since I am in the mood for a Summer holiday, I would like to share some travelling tips. How to travel like a Jet-Setter.....

1. Downsize your must-haves 
Turn to towelettes - It is much space-friendly if you pack the trial and travel pack toiletries. You get save some space and avoid potential leaks. But if you are like me, who needs to use the same favorite shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, facial wash, etc...I suggest you decant them into a travel size bottle. Another way to save space. 


2. Forget the sweats
You can layer breathable basics - like cotton t-shirts, light wool sweaters (to warm you especially during the journey) over tight, stretchy jeans. Add a drapey scarf (can serve as blanket as well). Slip-on ankle boots to make it more stylish. If you are lucky, the ground stuff might upgrade you to business class just because you dress stylishly like a celebrity.

3. Pack with pouches
We all want to travel light, but not if it means sacrificing our wardrobe choices. So one of the ways, is to pack your stuff in pouches. Under garments in one pouch, toiletries in another one... then you might need few separate cases for your stuff.

4. Don't fade out 
Carry concealer and a cheek blusher for in-flight touch ups. Or you may invest in a travel pallet which has a powder, blusher, lip tint and few eye colors pallet. I like this travel make up palette from Chanel. The colors are nice too.

5. Toss hair to the side
Even the most voluminous waves fall flat on transatlantic flights and buns don't make it easy to lean back and sleep. Try low side ponytail. I like it because it is simple and yet beautiful. Anna Kendrick looks fresh with this hair style.

Don't forget to follow this tips. Maybe one day, will be get a free upgrade to business class.

A new beginning

Every December, I will look back at my new year’s resolution. I didn’t manage to achieve all 2011 resolutions but at least more than half from the list. Being an optimistic person, I am thinking to shorten the list for this year. But does it really matter if you achieve 10% or 100% of your goals by December 2012? To me, what matter the most is the journey. Don’t worry if you keep on repeating the same resolution for 5 years down the road. Most importantly, how those goals actually transformed you to be a better person. Today, while watching 500 days of summer, I was actually thinking how to spice up my life… Not that I’m not happy with it but my brain just don’t know how to rest. As usual, I ask my best friend, what should I do to give some new colors in my life? She suggested for me to write a blog. I’ve been thinking about it for years but I just don’t have the courage to share my words and thoughts with strangers. After few minutes discussing with my best friend cum my consu

When everyone are enjoying long weekend in Kuala Lumpur, I had to get up early on a Sunday. But no complain cause I am flying to the city of Lion, Singapore. Well, i'm in Singapore for a week for work. It is going to be a busy week... and yet i am taking a few minutes... to post my updates. Had my lunch at PS Cafe, Palais @ Orchard Road . The ambiance is so welcoming and I can picture myself enjoying my cuppa coffee and the dessert. I was so full from my lunch and no space for dessert this time. Maybe I will make another trip before going back to KL. I love the interior so much, especially the tiles! I will post more pics next time. I only have pics from my BB now. I have a big mission this time..... to look for a handmade carpet from uncle shop (not my uncle ok!) at Arab St. This shop has all the lovely items from India. Nadia's fav item is the silk scarves. She even ordered a few...as usual. I dragged my colleague to follow me to shop before we go out for dinner

I can't remember exactly how many years ago.. maybe 4 or 5, made a plan with Nadia to visit Istanbul. We wanted to explore and understand Turkish life not as a tourist but as a traveler or even better as local. But the plan got postponed year after year..  Finally, my time for Istanbul come earlier than Nadia, and December 2012 is month where i'm fated to be in the grand Blue Mosque, understand the history of Ayasofya, drink Turkish tea and enjoy Apple tea, and most importantly, make new turkish friends. So I was there with my sisters during winter season. What to expect other than windy days. And the colors are  so dull. I'm not black, white and brown kind of person. More of pink, yellow, orange, purple, blue, and green. Haha.. yes. bringht and bold. That's me.  Great, it was raining as we walk out from the Ataturk airport. So I quick make my prayer to God, "God,  please stop the rain. I want to walk out and enjoy my first day in Istanbul". Then w
