Black & White, Singapore

COS tee, Uniqlo shorts, Topshop heels, ASOS bag

There really is more to Singapore than the all-famous Orchard Road. And strangely enough in all the time that I've ever lived and visited this place, I've never really bothered to venture extensively into these areas. However, walking up and down Orchard Road is highly unlikely to sustain any tourist's interest for more than a couple of days, and that's when you turn to modern architectural wonders like Gardens by the Bay and Marina Bay Sands, and hope to pique their cultural and historical interest with Chinatown and Little India.

Probably one of my most pared-down, basic outfits here but I love that though it's simple it goes so well with these elegant black and white tweed heels - the slim heel a very refreshing addition to my very chunky-heeled footwear collection. We were wandering around little streets on outskirts of Chinatown, admiring the shophouses of 'old Singapore', just before the sky unleashed and poured down on us for a good hour. The joys of the monsoon season!
