Les Miserables

Caught Les Miserables yesterday at Esplanade!

My JC clique and I made a promise that we would watch Phantom in Singapore together but it didn't work out. So this time we are watching Les Mis together.

I've been a bit too lazy to Dayre recently because work has hit a bit of a slump and I've no mood to write.

Wore my old #Fayth maxi to the musical because old is gold ✨

Actually mostly because I have 0 chances to wear a maxi anywhere and I've worn this a total of 1 time since I got it.

I'll take any opportunity to bust out my dressy dresses. 😌

Les Mis was a good experience!

We faced a minor hitch when the microphones had a fault halfway through, and there was a shouting match between two ladies because of a special needs child.

Overall it was pretty good though. We managed to get decent seats for the price we paid, and my favourite scene was Jean Valjean harmonizing a hummed tune with Cosette as a child.

I still prefer Phantom's storyline though. 👻

Met the rest of the full JC clique for dinner at Marina Square and ended up eating at this fried chicken place called Chic-A-Boo. Got this set for $7.90! It was so-so, tasted like typical fast food, but skip on the coleslaw and choose another side. The corn muffin was surprisingly very tasty. 😋

We had full attendance for once! And we have already planned our next meet up on National Day before most of us fly off.

Posting a couple of old #ootd photos from last week's meetup with @mermaidsarereal because I was too lazy to edit photos until now.

In full #TheClosetLover except for my shoes! Wore my #TCL Mckenzie out and it was very snug. I hope it was just period hormones bloat and not because I've grown fatter in the 2 weeks since I bought it. 😂

Paired it with the Meridien bralet from the Montigo launch (so long ago!) and the Elsie Bag.

This shot made it to Instagram because I like how I can see the contours and highlights on the cheekbones. 🌚 It's less obvious because I made the photo a lot brighter, but ah well.

One last smiley shot that I was too lazy to edit.

Love this pair of culottes! They're so comfy and because they're stretchable, I can still wear them comfortably after a meal. Bonus points. And I wish I could afford to buy all the colours. 🌚

Forgot the food pics! Think this was the Eggs Royale ($15). So. Much. Smoked. Salmon. 😋 So. Much. Love.

I don't understand the purpose of the roe on the top though and I felt like there was too little brioche. I'm a bread monster. But brunch cravings fully satisfied, yes. Wasn't it just last week that I said that I would be staying away from eggs?

Tomyum pasta which I didn't try because I cannot take spicy food at all. And also because I'm slightly allergic to prawns. 🌚

And this Kaya Muffin... Oh em gee. I still crave it occasionally. It was warm and buttery and oozed sweet kaya.

Every Sunday is NTUC sushi day because it's also grocery day. But I can never find a plate with the sushi that I like. What is with that weird green one? My dad always ends up having to eat the ones I don't like. #parentsacrifice

Had a great Sunday just chilling at home and playing Cluedo with the family. It felt great to finally have a makeup-free day.

I woke up on Friday with a face full of itchy and raw rashes. 😳

I may have scratched my face throughout the night unconsciously and my nails were sharp with a capital S. When I woke up in the morning it hurt to even wash my face and my skin was red and blotchy.

I freaked out because
1) my parents had been having rashes on their arms and legs for the whole week for unknown reasons. (by the way you know you're really growing up when you worry about your parent's illnesses everyday more than your own.)
2) I have a history of terrible acne. So RASHES ON FACE?😱

Anyway thank goodness the rashes seem to be subsiding. My skin is still super rough from the healing patches and there are still really itchy bumps. It just kills me because I put in so much effort to make sure my acne doesn't come back again. 😭

I have worn makeup everyday for the past 2 weeks, gosh. Today's the first day my skin could breathe. Going to take it easy on the makeup for this week! Only powder foundation and eyebrows and lipstick. Maybe eyeshadow 🌚
