Sweet Treats! By Ideya Mode

Recently during Hari Raya, we decided to do a little housewarming for relatives and colleagues.

And I had the pleasure of getting acquainted with Aida from Ideya Mode!

It was really a very last minute decision to have a sweet treat/ desserts corner and so I was really impressed at how efficient and promt the team was!

It was not just about mini cupcakes, marshmallows, mars, m&ms and brownies! They came complete with cute decor and even brought along their vintage lamp! ;)

Look at how happy we are!

All thanks to Aida and Nadia from Ideya Mode! They were so sweet and dedicated throughout the entire day. Topping up and making sure the kids (and adults) are happy .

Never thought I'll really be getting my own walk-in wardrobe!

When I got married late last year, I was fortunate enough to get my own place within a very short time. With all the craziness of my wedding preparation, I was also very much stressed planning for my new home. And amidst all the stress, I remembered that I needed a walk-in wardrobe because I have too much stuff. So can u imagine my delight when my darling friend Hui Xian told me that Besglas will be helping me do up my walk-in wardrobe!

So I went to their fabulous website and facebook and got so so excited to see their designs. Their design is chic, simple, cutting-edge and very durable and corrosion proof. So it's not only style that we are talking about but long-standing durability.

One of the photos that I stalked from the website. Isn't it SO gorgeous! 

Anyway, I met Wendy from Besglas who is so patient and understood what a crazy-clothes-obsessed-girl like me needed. And it all happened very fast. After discussion, their experts came over my place to do measurements and within 2 half days, my walk-in wardrobe is ready! How efficient is that??

So yes if you ask me, Besglas is your best bet if you needed to do a great makeover for your room. Very chic, modern and faaaaaaaast. No hassles, no heartache.

Without further ado, may I present to you my walk-in wardrobe by Besglas!

My first look at my walk-in wardobe.

Which I quickly filled with my dresses, shoes, bags, hats, and shoes, and clothes and more clothes.

If you had clicked on the links I gave in my posting above, you would have most likely have had the chance to visit their facebook and official website. But in any case you didnt, you totally have to visit their facebook : http://www.facebook.com/Besglas and website : www.besglas.com

Set up an appointment with them and do wonders to your room :)

Good luck darlings!

Lots of love, clothes and bags,

Muslim Delights - A Halal must try eatery

I rarely do food reviews. But when I do, it's probably because of 2 things. Either it's excellent and such a good value for money or something I'd prefer you not to try. In this case, it's delicious and fabulous! I love their wide variety Malay dishes as well as their freshly fried mee goreng!

If you haven't heard of it, it's a quaint Halal Malay restaurant/eatery over at 117 Upper Paya Lebar Road, S534834. It's opposite Tai Seng and  a whole lot of other warehouses.

Their food is good and they have a pretty good variety. Their malay dishes include lemak cili padi, beef rendang, sambal telur, sambal goreng, andddddd so much more. I have attached photos below for you to take a look. Also, they have Mee Soto, Mee Rebus, Lontong and also Nasi Briyani on certain days. So you are really spoiled for choice. Muslim Delights closes at 8pm so you can still go there for dinner after you're done with work.

Ok. So now the pictures.

When you see this red signboard, means you have successfully found the place!

A very nice comfortable, lepak place for you to dine with your family and friends.

See, I told you their spread of lauk Melayu is tremendous.

A close-up of their fabulous begedil, sambal goreng and crispy ikan goreng.

For asam pedas lovers, their asam pedas is really gooood! Their fish is fresh and they are so generous with their spices.

 

                                    

Their well-seasoned paru goreng, kangkong belacan and crispy fried chicken!

And they even have sambal goreng pengantin which is so rare! You can usually find them during Malay weddings or open houses during Hari Raya or when your mom cooks it.

I think almost everytime I visit Muslim Delights, I will get my teh tarik fix.

Their teh tarik is creamy, frothy and oh-so-good.

Aaaaahhhh.... THE nasi briyani.

The queue that started early in the morning.

So i thought sharing with you about this place will just add to your list of the must-try food in Singapore and especially for those like me who's on the hunt for good halal food, this is the place :) Muslim Delights Just click here and you'll be directed to their facebook which has all their details : location, phone number, bookings, etc.

Let me know if you have been there! 

Bon Appetit!

P/S: Muslim Delights is a popular wedding caterer and service provider in Singapore too! So this probably will you give you a good heads up if you are looking for a reliable wedding vendor that provides REALLY delicious wedding food. If you want to call them for an enquiry or a booking, all the details are here : MUSLIM DELIGHTS WEDDING AND CATERING SERVICES

Lots of love and sambal goreng,

Favourite blusher at the moment.

It's been centuries since I last blogged about beauty products. So I decided to do a short post cos I'm just so in love with Revlon's latest must-have cream blusher. It's Revlon Photoready Blusher that I stumbled across while I was shopping for things that I don't need. I saw there were only 2 colours that were available in the store, pink and coral. If it was in true Fiza O's style, I would have grabbed both colours. But because I had other stuff already in my basket, I had to think rationally. So after much deliberation and analysis, I bought the pink one. Yes, this is a serious matter, at least for me.

I decided that I should try this pink cream blusher first and if I love it I must come back for more colours. Ok so here's my review :

I love it. In fact, it's now a staple in my makeup bag. Currently, I don't have to carry an extra blusher brush with me everywhere and it's compact.

The cream blusher is so easily applied that it leaves a natural looking finish on your cheeks and it can be layered again and again to achieve the colour you want. From natural to a deeper pink. And it's not streaky. I love it. 

So here's how it looks like against my skin. It gives a natural looking flush to the skin and doesn't give them powdery look.

For you girls who's gotten it, do you like it as much as I do?



lots of love, mascara and blusher,

My baby turns Sixteen.

There's so much posts overdue that I am not going to dwell on it. In due time, it will be up. I broke my record yet again and this is the longest break I had since I blogged. I have been absolutely packed. From the time I last blogged, I went through so many life changing events. I had my marriage announcement, busy with my new home, ripped off by a small time renovation company, gotten married, went to Hokkaido, hosted a few TV programmes, busy life on radio, gotten pregnant and went though a miscarriage, and discovered who were the real friends that were there no matter what.

Oh boy that would require so many individual posts.

But anyway, my baby sister turned sixteen. And I cannot believe it. I was fifteen when my mom was pregnant with her and I remembered not liking it. I was fifteen and already having an 11 year old brother and 5 year old twin sisters. So at that time I thought I can't handle another baby sister. But when she came along, she was one of the best things that happened to me. I was so in love with her that I wanted to carry her all the time. I wanted to kiss her all the time. In fact until today, I still do it. I love her so much that I would miss her when I was at school. I would be like a little mom, carrying her while I was at the supermarket and attending to her like she was my little princess. And because she was literally the baby of the house, I remembered how everyone was enthralled by her and all of us wanted to participate when my mom was bathing her and dressing her up.

My brother and my Ziqah when she was about 2.

That was me carrying her at the pool. I was probably 17 then.

My baby sister wearing my favourite yellow and black dress.

I remember holding her small hands and always wanting to buy for her cute little dresses and hairbands with whatever little money I had. Such joy I had when my baby sister looks so cute with them on. She looked cute in every single thing, in her first baju raya, in her towel, in her (my favourite) yellow and black tight tutu dress, in her kindergarten uniform, in everything. And now she's already sixteen and slated to sit for her all-important O levels. I pray for nothing but the best for her. And I just want her to know that I have never stopped adoring her. She will always by my baby no matter how old she gets.

I love you Ziqah and Happy Sweet Sixteenth.


love,
Kak Big.
