Hello beautiful readers! It's the time of the year where Singapore looks a tad prettier. The lights, the glitter and the colors. Not to forget the sales! Don't u just love December? :) Personally, things are not as flowery right now. This is life I guess. Sometimes it all comes together and sometimes you just kinda lose it all. Funny, just when you…
