Valentine's Day Celebration With An Icy Touch!

If you have never experienced winter but would really like to have a feel of what it is like, an interesting place you may like to visit is the 2Degree Ice Art Exhibition at Marina Bay Sands. Over there, you will not only have a chance to experience a wintry climate, but also feast your eyes on a stunning display of ice sculptures! Having watched the movie, "Frozen" not too long ago, I was pretty excited about the exhibition and my hubby and I decided to visit 2Degree on Valentine's Day!

We didn't spend a long time inside the exhibition as the place was smaller than expected and it was freezing cold! Nevertheless, I would say that the experience was very unique and if you love the idea of having some fun playing on ice slides, this will be a place you do not want to miss.

To end off, here are some photos of our Valentine's Day dinner!

The food was lovely and I would definitely recommend this restaurant if you will like some fusion style food (i.e. Japanese And Western cuisine), with the chance to have a nice walk at the Marina Bay Sands area after the meal.  

Last but not least, just a couple of pictures of my OOTD:

Leather Vest Top From Lace And Buttons - Great For Layering!

I  really like the vest as it looks good when worn on its own or when layered on a top or bodycon dress, as what I have done.

"Men In Black" Fashion Shoot And Italian Dining Experience!

Before I knew it, Chinese New Year and Valentine's Day were over. I had a great time celebrating these two special occasions and hope everyone had the blast of a time too! Thanks to all ladies who have supported Lace And Buttons, especially for our CNY Collection which was sold out really quickly. We will be coming up with new designs in March so do keep a look-out!

Being really busy with all the celebrations going on, it has been a while since I last updated this blog with my personal fashion picks so here is a quick one:

Hawaii Top in Black From Lace And Buttons

When I first caught sight of these "Men in Black" a few months ago, I knew that I have to arrange for a photoshoot with these eye-catching statues! Just too interesting to miss in my opinion. The top I am wearing is one of my favorite staple pieces as it is so comfortable and goes very well with jeans and shorts. Recommended buy for ladies who can't have enough of casual chic pieces and definitely a bargain as it is on sale now at Lace And Buttons.

To end off, here is a quick review of our dinner at an Italian Restaurant after the photoshoot:

The restaurant serves a large variety of liquor

Chic Home-Style Alfresco Dining Area

Spaghetti Carbonara - Spaghetti with Cream Egg Yolk And Pork Bacon

Salmone Pizza - Smoked Salmon, Rucola, Capers, Mozzarella and pomodoro

Home-made Gelato - Chocolate And Pistachio Flavors

I am not a huge fan of Italian cuisine so I can't say that it was one of my best meals. However, I do find the taste of the pizza rather unique (as ingredients I am not familiar with were used), making me feel that the dish was authentically Italian. The crust was also baked just right, so that it was crispy with an adequate level of thickness (I don't like pizzas that are too thick). The spaghetti came with a very thick and creamy egg yolk sauce which was rather tasty but may be a tad too heavy after a few mouthfuls. Hence, it may be a great dish for people who love really creamy and savory dishes but not a must-have for small eaters. The gelato was not the best I have tried in terms of the overall texture but I have to say that the Pistachio flavor was delightfully palatable!    

Overall I will rate the experience as average but if you are someone who like a more European taste or who like to experiment with food, this may be a restaurant you will like!
