My stay in Penang was absolutely beautiful. We had amazing views of the ocean from our hotel room, and with the really warm weather, what more could you ask for? I think Penang might now be one of my favorite travel destinations. White sandy beaches and lots of great food down Gurney Drive. Australians and Brits definitely agree, they are all over the place here having a good time, but only now are Americans just beginning to come. Everyone was telling me to try the famous Asam Laksa in Penang and I have to say, it is SO yummy! I can really take spicy foods, but not as much as I used to. Growing up, I put chili on just about everything haha! I also really like the soy bean milk they serve there a lot! Plus, we had an awesome taxi driver, Ali, who would fetch us here, there, and everywhere, all whiling giving us lots of good information as well as making us laugh just about every five seconds!!But we’ve definitely had other few crazy taxi drivers which nearly scared the crap outta me. But but all in all, I had a safe and wonderful time in Penang. And like I said, very easy dressing. High waisted denim shorts and tanks are my new best friend. After Penang, I spent the last 2 days in Thailand! Took so many beautiful photos. Can’t wait to take a look at them later! But now, I am back in KL for a bit! :)))

I arrived in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on Friday afternoon! I was so exhausted from the 22 hour flight, but I stayed up and went out with my relatives to an awesome Indian restaurant. I loved the banana leaf plates! The curry was so spicy and flavorful, I nearly melted. And wow, it is sooo warm and humid here. I love it! All I feel like wearing are super short shorts and cotton tees. Easy dressing, but having so much fun. I am not really near my laptop all day, but I am sitting here at a Starbucks in Subang Jaya posting this! I needed to cool off, so I grabbed a yummy Ais kachang and pineapple with my sister. We have been taking so many photos and enjoying the tropical climate! Will be hitting up Penang tomorrow morning. I can’t wait to hit the beach and just relax! Will definitely keep you updated with more photos of my travels!

Also, recently I did an interview with Swanky Magazine. Read it HERE! You might have to translate! :))

Lace Dress and Slip: Vintage, Shoes: Bally

So this is my new dress that I love oh so much. Black lace is aaah! my fave! It gives off a dark, sultry vibe. I really lucked out on this one. The arms and waist fit perfectly, i couldn’t ask for anything more. Because I usually wear fitted dresses, the flowing shape at the bottom feels new and refreshing to me. Everyone needs a little change and variation in their lives right? I get bored of just one look or one particular style. This little getup is different from anything I already have…it keeps things interesting.

Anywhoooo, my trip to Asia begins Wednesday. I’m feeling the need to get out of the USA right now and start converting my dollars into ringgits! I’m working on doing all the laundry, buying the necessities, packing everything, yada yada yada. Basically, I just want Wednesday to come along. But I’m trying to take it just one day at a time, why speed up time even more? Besides that, I do have some cool new work photos that I will share with you guys soon! :))
