What i've been up to!

I have been working from home this entire week due to personal home stuffs, so kudos and many thanks to the pixies in the office, i could have a peaceful mind! :)
They have been diligently replying emails, packing your orders and backorders which came. 
Hehehe, if you're reading this, thanks babes! <3

So many happy moments have happened recently, and i'm just feeling thankful.

To Janelle; who offered to help us at the office right after her last day of her exams. I was quite concerned we'd be short of help, and she readily offered to help all the way until her internship. It doesn't sound wow, but to work right after mugging for months, then straight to internship is something not everyone will do. I've been there, i'd gladly opt for a short break before internship!
Such bonds formed are really keepers. 
友情万岁!Cant wait for BKK with youuuuu (and Bertie!!)

To the other pixies Huiee, Xinmei; thanks for all the entertainment in the chat. Haha you girls really make LOL literally. What's up with the Heineken commercial?! 
Especially to XM who's constantly checking TCL (ALL the time!) out even though she's miles away, it's really heartwarming to know how deep TCL is etched in her heart. :) The moral support they give all the time so readily is something that really motivates me. Though these girls aren't working for us anymore, the connection is still so deep. 
Cant wait for housewarming session and makan sessions! 
我还是很爱你们!<3

To Sab, Joce, Steph; thanks for fighting the battle with me all the way when Bert wasn't around, even working way beyond your usual hours just so the parcels are cleared.
Special thanks to Xiao Bu Dian Joce, thanks for sweeping/vacuuming/mopping the office though you have done zero housework before, haha. 

To Mel the boyfriend; thanks for delivering parcels all the time for us.
Without you, the operation is not completed. :)
Thanks for always giving suggestions be it good or bad, for sending me up and down to office and suppliers, for just being there. :)

And to our models Cons & Sipei, our Make Up Artist, our Photographer; thanks for always making our models and photos look their best. Outdoor shoots are really monsters; the sun, mozzies (horror of all horrosssss!) and the early hours are enough to drain 100% of your energy, 
and they are always so enthusiastic nonetheless.
I'm especially thankful for Cons who stuck by us the last 19 months. She has been poached by other shops which is no surprise, but choosing to stay by TCL, this i'm really thankful. :)

All in all, i just wanna thank the team for everything.
Without you guys, TCL is just an empty shell.
So THANK YOU! :)

It was meant to be a short and sweet post, but i ended up feeling the emotional gratitude. 
Oh wells.
Photos!

I've been busy with THIS!
YES, my tiny walk in wardrobe! :D
Converted a room to this, and my work table is also in here.
I'm still very proud of this tiny space, and i foresee it to be my favorite place at home already!

Got these from Ikea anyway, if you have been to Ikea you should have seen it! :)
It's customizable, so it's like a pick and add kind of concept!
I've tons of clothes to hang, so you can see more clothes racks than shelves!

This rack is where my beauty stuffs end up, just beside the mirror! 
It makes make up, applying facial products more convenient! 
The mirror is a swivel one btw, and you can put accessories and random stuffs at the back!
#save space

And HELLO! I've shoes rack in da room!
I know it doesn't make sense, but i've too many shoes too, and the one in the living area is already over flowing, 
so i'll probably pick the favorites to put them in here! :)

 
And this 3 box thing, can i scream how convenient they are!
I've seen it on songofstyle on instagram and it's kinda inspired by her!
Just fold and put all the shorts and jeans into the holes!
It makes packing easier, and it makes picking what to wear so much easier, 
cos i can see everything! 

I've already unpacked my clothes from the boxes, and it's slowly falling into place! :)
Just missing a carpet, and we're done!
I'll probably blog more about the finished look in the next couple of weeks!
Will also be doing a selling post on the blog since i've sorted the clothes out.
After my BKK trip okay! :)

Here's part my beauty corner! 
I just had to take a photo since it's just packed, and it looks so neat and nice! I hope it stays this way! :)
I have really dry skin, so Laneige is my best friend, haha.
Have tons of their products to help my poor face.
Spot Lancome products? I'm using them and i've blown away. They are oh so good!
I kept a pack of the Belif samples too, yet to use them yet as i'm still on Lancome, but i've already heard raves on them! Gonna blog about them in the next couple of posts too!

Frequent visits to Ikea has triggered my green fingers!
Bought this pot of plant plus other colorful plant pots, plus seeds to grow.
Like tomatoes and herbs and such, and i was telling Bert and my supplier in the chat.
And guess what, they thought i was kidding, like since when Bree is interested in plants, laughed out loud SOOO many times, and worst; they placed bets (like hello!?!)  that the plants will not survive in my hands! :( 

But hey, i've been watering them diligently okay!
Let's see if there's any results, hahahaha.

Took a Nail OTD with the new plant.
Not bad rightttt. Hehhee.

And yesterday noon, i was feeling hungry after all the packing, so i made this!
Easy peasy and fuss free, all done in less than 5 minutes!
I love french toasts with maple syrup! :D

I've been cooped up at home this entire week hence i haven't been dressing up, so no OTDs.
But i've sort of planned my upcoming outfits, so more to come! :p
Feeling very homely, been cooking more frequent now.
Oh yes, i attempted steam cod fish, fried bean sprouts and butter sotong!
Thankfully it tasted nice and edible, cos the cod costs a bomb!

LASTLY.
Have you seen this yet?
It's up on TCL's Facebook, and i must say, i super love this collection!
The pastels and prints are sooo gorgeous! It's been a while since we'd such a nice collection right? :p
When i first saw the photos i was like DAMN NICE CAN.
We changed some lights, Cons had a new hairdo and everything turned out so nice, heheee.

For this launch, we're giving away $100 TCL vouchers, plus free outfits!
More details on Facebook!

Gonna head to bed now!

Till the next, have a good weekend!

Love,
Bree

  1. Bree, I love the Walk in wadrobe! It seems like a fabulous, modern and inexpensive way to get all our clothes organised! And this way, you aren't committing the space into something that you cna't rework later on when living circumstances change. Brilliant!

    1. Hiya babe! Gotta agree on that! It's a way cheaper alternative to get an ID to get it done, and this is way faster than what an ID can do! :))

  2. Hi, would you consider manufacturing this skirt?
