This post is looong overdue, as I tried these products a while ago. I always want to take my time to try products before writing a review, as I want my posts to be 100% honest. And I really took my time with these! I came across ANIA Skincare almost a year ago via ZERRIN,
I’ve been thinking a lot about how the average consumer understands sustainable fashion and I’ve realised that , although most people have access to fashion, most don’t realize what is behind the fashion industry. Many of us are very lucky to be able to afford clothes that are made in a sustainable way. A lot

Talking Sustainable Style on ExpatLiving Magazine It doesn’t happen everyday that you see your face on a magazine, right? I’m super excited to share my feature on

Hi there! It’s been a while since my last post and that’s because I went on holidays to Spain and had a great time focusing on spending my time with my family and friends. When I came back to Singapore I had a major jet lag and a hard time adapting to office hours and
Hi there! Guess what? I discovered something new. I gave in to rescued fabrics and organic cotton. Because it is an amazing thing to put your money into. Rescued fabrics are great because they are given a second chance to create something out of them instead of throwing them away. But organic cotton? It is
In the midst of the Black Friday madness, I thought it would be good to sit back, stay away from social media marketing for a bit and give you some tips for conscious shopping. Your bank account will thank you, and me 🙂 It feels a bit overwhelming to see hundreds of Black Friday deals
There is a new online shop in town for stylish sustainable fashion and clean beauty products. It’s called ZERRIN. It is the first ethical multi-label online shop in Asia and I’m a declared fan of their amazing curated selection! Shopping for stylish sustainable fashion is not the easiest thing in the world. Although there are
Eating healthy everyday could be challenging, specially if you have a corporate job and want to take your lunch to the office. I know, I know: prepare the food, the containers, carry it with you all day… Not that convenient. In Singapore there are plenty of food choices, but I do find that there is
Anyone that knows me knows that I love makeup and beauty. I am a beauty junkie. A complete and total addict! At a very young age I started collecting makeup and playing with it and pretty soon my drawers were not enough for all the stuff. Got new storage, kept accumulating. Got tired of some
I am obsessed with podcasts. I don’t know how it happened, but I have over 20 different podcasts on my phone that I listen to daily. Depending on the mood I’m having at the moment I’d listen to different topics. I usually listen in the train (hello 30 minute commute to work) or at home
For the past few years my coffee consumption had grown exponentially, mainly after joining a corporate job and being surrounded by people who take smoke/coffee breaks regularly. Yep, that doesn’t help! Cause when you are in an office and your colleague says “let’s go have a coffee” chances are you’ll join. And going for a coffee
And Jewelry too! During my holidays in Spain there was an important task on my to do list during the stopover in Madrid. Paying a visit to the Bakari shop and checking out their unique handmade bags and clutches. I can assure you that in this shop you will find the bag you are looking
Finding an ethical way to shop fast fashion brands is a thought that has been in my mind for some time now. And it is quite a controversial one! If you know anything about ethical fashion you are probably thinking that I’ve gone mad and that there is no ethical way to shop in fast fashion
Over the years my interest in a more conscious lifestyle has grown. Less consumption = less waste. “But how do I stop buying fashion and makeup?” Says my Zara-addicted self. Good question. I’m working on implementing a more conscious approach to shopping that I want to share with you. How I try to shop meaningfully and
Let me break this out to you right from the start: We buy way more clothes than we actually need and wear. Sustainable fashion is becoming a trend as consumers are more interested into durable clothes that are produced ethically. But where does this come from? Channel News Asia released an article where they revealed that the average Singaporean
With bonus tip for a great office lunch There are two things you can do with a bunch of mint leaves, one is mojitos and the other one is mint pesto. For the second option, keep reading! This mint pesto pasta recipe was totally improvised. I went to the supermarket that day to do the
Working on a corporate job full time and loving to sleep long hours don’t go well together. I like to sleep in as much as possible and I keep delaying my alarms. Alarms, in plural, cause I have a couple on my phone…. During week days I’m usually running in the morning. I do my
Or how relax and do nothing at all for 3 wonderful days! Langkawi is an amazing weekend-getaway destination if you live in Singapore. It is just one hour away by plane and all low-cost airlines have flights landing there everyday. We went to Langkawi for a long weekend and although there is not much to see
Green smoothie or a tropical cocktail drink? Hard to tell! To be honest, green smoothies were never appealing to me and the idea of “drinking” veggies is something that would have never crossed my mind. But as I am more and more into adopting a healthier diet, the idea of getting so many nutrients out of one
