What I Wore | Halter Maxi Dress & Antique Statement Necklace

Hi there! Its been awhile since I have shared a post here in my blog... 

Been so busy with multiple jobs. Need to work hard for holiday season and I also have lots of events Ive attended that I cannot wait to share with everyone here.

Here's an outfit I wore at one of the events I have attended. I really love this halter maxi dress because its very comfy and flattering to your body. The cloth is spandex. I specially love side-slit on the dress. 

To finish the look I wore this antique inspired multi-chain statement necklace that I received recently from Happiness Boutique. I really love the quality of the necklace. I also love the personalized packaging of Happiness Boutique. Perfect for gifts specially this holiday season. ;)

The way to be happy is to make others so.

My Vampire

How is everyone doing?

Been drafting this post for couple of days already. So many distractions and "to-do-list" I have to attend that I left no time to blog and read blogs.

Thanks for the comments on my previous post. Since a lot of you just learned about me being a single mom. Today, will be sharing some photos of my son on his costumes at the Halloween events he has attended this year... McDonald's Fun Day and Centrio Mall Trick or Treat. 

Days before Halloween he was very excited for Halloween because he wants to wear vampire costume. And so vampire it is...

For McDonald's Fun Day it was more of the classic inspired style with long sleeve, gloves, slack and black shoes.

For Centrio Mall Trick or Treat we went for a modern style with jeans, sneakers and yes the cape of course.
Make use of clothes he already has and just bought the cape. As for the vampire look I just place some BB cream to make his face pale and then use my red lipstick for the blood effect on his mouth. Was not able to find any vampire teeth in stores (Its sold out!) so his not wearing any fangs. It was already late when I discovered, I can make a DIY fangs with the fake nails. Maybe next time I can use this newly discovered idea.
It's always a learning lesson balancing single parent duties, earn for a living, de-stress/chill with my friends and enjoy life as it comes.  I am so glad my kid is smart to understand my lacking and give me room for improvements.
Anyways, what do you think of my kiddo's vampire costume?

7 Random Facts About Me 

• Im a single mom to a smart boy.
• I work at home as an administrative assistant.

Good thing my blogging passion didnt die there and this blog was relaunch as Emotera Goddess. ^_^

What I Wore | Monster High Venus Flytrap Inspired

Happy Halloween everyone!

Before bidding goodbye to October and saying hello to November. Will be sharing an outfit inspired from the Monster High character. 

This isn't actually a latest outfit, its one of those forgotten one... However, I am so glad to find the perfect time to share this to you. Wore this outfit at my niece Monster High theme birthday party.

I am loyal to my real name so I choose to dress up like Venus Flytrap. I have so many plans on my look but ended not wearing any accessories and didn't even complete my make-up because I was so busy with the party details. I worked on the decorations of the party and also help the birthday girl's friends on their costume. I also did all the kids make-up.

I am glad I was able to have few solo photos though... I never thought I could. 

That explains the a bit messy make-up look and outfit in this photos because this was taken after the chaos... errr party! :D

Watch out soon on the blog, will also share the kids Monster High outfits.

What do you think of my Venus Flytrap outfit?

What I Wore | Pink Long Top/Dress

Hey everyone! Hope you're having a fun and well-spent weekend.

This long top or rather dress I'm wearing is not mine actually... A friend who is equally fashionista and more shopaholic than me purchased this online at Shopthiseasy.com.
At first glance, I know why she purchased this... It's because she loves pink. However, she told me she purchased this because she finds it very attractive on the model. ^_^ hahaha

Do you buy clothes because it looks very pretty and attractive on the model/mannequin? 

Well, I use to do this before, but not now anymore. Nowadays, when I buy I have to think of the comfort, flexibility, and functionality of the clothes.

Back to the dress details... 

Its cloth is suede fabric. The style is perfect for my friend because she is pregnant. The golden mask feather Corsage can be optionally removed if you don't like it.

Lastly, it was on sale so it's really a good buy.

The model that made my friend purchase this dress. Photo grab from the online shop.

#Foodtrip: Roti Mum Singapore's Best Coffee Bun

Happy midweek!
Long day starts tomorrow, as I have too many things line up for me.
Will be going on field trip with the kiddo tomorrow, buy some baking stuff after and then work.
Then the next day will attend an event, after that work and then hopefully squeeze some test baking for the cupcakes I will need to prepare for the next day...
Will be making some minion cupcakes from scratch for the first time as requested by a friend for her nephew's birthday on Saturday. So that's kinda making me nervous, although Ive been baking cupcakes already. Its because of this nitty gritty details of the minion design that I will need to achieve.
Since its been a busy week, I am hoping to end it with a long overdue foodtrip that Ive been craving. It really frustrates me that Roti Mum's not in Centrio mall, of which is my go to place. This mall kinda like my extended neighbor already because I regularly visit here for leisure, errands, work and whatever purposes.
One of my favorite place to hangout and have coffee is Rotti Mum. Funny how I just ignore this kiosk in the malls before. However, when a friend invited me to rest at Rotti Mum after a tireful stroll at the mall, thats how discover my newest fave. My friend recommended to order the coffee bun with coffee combo. And she was right because after that it has always been my fave. I am not sure if it was me being a coffee lover, but all I know is I do love the taste of their bread!

Do you like Roti Mum's coffee bun?

What I Wore | Knitted Top and High Waist Denim Skirt

Hey everyone! How was your weekend?

As for me, it was a weekend well spent. 

I just started watching Hart of Dixie and really getting hooked on it. So this TV show just ended its last season this March 2015 and I just learned that there will be no season 5. And that rumors has it that in season 4 the episodes not getting interesting. Im still far away though, Im still in season 1. And since I am still very interested in it, will see. 

I just love Rachel Bilson in this TV show. She's drop-dead gorgeous. I also love her outfits, so chic!

Anyone of you watched Hart of Dixie too? 

Now, about my outfit... Talking about denim being never out of style. This high waist skirt has been mine from college days. And that's more than 10 years ago... And it still fits me?! Wow!  I remember buying this with my girl friend... Risa. We both have the same skirt, you know that matchy-matchy fashion we do with our besties. ;D

On my top, I also shop this with my other besties... Dee has her fave pink knitted top while I have it my fave color, blue. ^_^

Do you also shop matching clothes with your friends?
