Bringing Classy Back to Your Travel & Style
Happy new year my fellow gorgeous! Hope you’ve wrapped up the year that was 2014 in an amazing note with a splash of glitz and glamour with a healthy dose of laughter. I’m ringing in the new year with my first lookbook of 2015 that reflects the very core of Lace n Ruffles – where romance was born. There’s always a vintage dress for every
Let’s talk about colour obsessions, shall we? Does anyone feel a particular connection with colours? If you stalk me regularly on Instagram, you’d probably notice just how much I love to play with hues and shades in my photos. I particularly love spotting pretty shades in nature while travelling, and connecting a specific colour with a destination. My Cote d’Azure was terracotta, Paris was without
Confession #99: I’m a chronic overpacker when it comes to travel. Being pretty notorious among my travel buddies as the shoe lady jet-setting with three pair of shoes for a weekend away, I’m probably not the best person to teach you how to travel light.

I like to mix things up. You know, Cinderella shoes one day, combat boots the next! After all, this is what styling is about – channeling your inner character
Let’s face it, Taylor Swift doesn’t have any form of alien superpower to be able to look utterly graceful and flawless post workout. I repeat, people, Taylor Swift is as human as we are! You know, she sweats at gym (I’m fairly sure), she got dumped by her ex over a 27-second phone call, and she has a pretty long list of dramatic ex-boyfriends. Sound like some girls
I don’t call myself a vintage fashion lover, because vintage clothing is more than merely a fashion status. I’d classify myself as a vintage stylist, playing with treasures from my grandma’s closet. Because vintage style never fades. Because the moment of glory that a piece of vintage dress has ignited in the past has been preserved, or in fact been fermented just like a bottle
How often do you let the pleasant aroma lead you to discover places on your journey? I’m obsessed with fragrance, from my collection of over 100 bottles of perfumes, shelves of heavenly scented candles, to chocolate fragrant body mousse, I let my nose take me on adventures.
