Once again, I was very impressed with the quality of the workmanship and would definitely recommend every girl to have one of these jersey dresses in her wardrobe!

You can dress down by wearing it without the sash or glam it up with a simple necklace like I did. When the weather gets chilly (it’s so unpredictable nowadays, even in Singapore!), just throw on a cropped jacket to complete the look!

Can’t decide which colour to choose? LOL I can totally understand because I love them all!

You know it’s time to reward yourself after a long work week, so what better than to indulge in a little retail therapy at Amelie Anne!

On a lighter note, fashion is my other passion and you know I’ll always try to leave you with some outfit photos in every post. I’ll try to put up more items for sale soon too. 😉

We were told to look into each other’s eyes and smile. Hahaha.

Temperatures can vary very drastically from city to city too. There was one point in Slovakia when I even had to pull out my winter trench because it was freezing cold! Brrr…and the funniest thing was, when I reached Hungary the next day, it was summer all over again!

Here’s one of my get-ups for the fall season:

I had just arrived in Cesky Krumlov from Prague where it rained in the morning (read: massive temperature drop alert!!). It was hot and sunny when I took these photos and I was getting all these curious stares from passersby who probably thought I was from outer space. LOL

Needless to say, I changed out of my outfit the minute I reached my hotel room! 😛

See what I mean? Prague by night looks like a city of glowing jewels.

For now, I’ll leave you with an outfit shot in Prague. 🙂 Don’t be deceived by these photos on the iconic Charles Bridge. The bridge looks practically empty here, but truth be told, the maddening crowd in Prague almost drove me crazy because I couldn’t admire the beauty of the city in its entirety without having to elbow through truckloads of tourists!

Before we continued touring the town, we stopped by Narbona restaurant for lunch and an extended tea break thereafter. We had yummy cordon bleu for our main courses (we took the kid’s meal cos the portions are huge!). At 2 euros, you can also get yourself a glass of sangria, which is the same price as what a coke or coffee would cost!

Over here, the siesta starts from 1.30pm to 4.30pm, and families would gather for long, leisurely lunches together. Wish we could do that in Singapore too, where work-life balance is more of a myth, don’t you think? Unless you’re self-unemployed like yours truly. 😉

After filling our tummies with sangria and oily fried food, we climbed up to the highest point of the town, where the Santa Maria La Mayor castle-collegiate church is. This church used to be a Muslim castle until it was conquered by the King of Aragon in the 1600s.

Here’s what I wore to battle the sweltering heat.

Along the way back, we passed by El Puente, a campsite with a beautiful arched bridge against the captivating backdrop of Sierra de Guara just as the sun was setting.

Sigh..I’m so gonna miss this place!!!!

Byebye Rodellar, and hello Barcelona.

1) I had my first hiking experience here (4 hikes actually!) and enjoyed it thoroughly despite having to fend off bees/flies and balance on rocky paths that threaten to give way any time.

I even crossed the streams twice! I think I did mighty well for someone who’s afraid of water. 😉

2) I belayed JW for the first time in my life! That’s no mean feat cos I’ve never belayed him or anybody for that matter, not even in the indoor rockclimbing gyms in Singapore and Malaysia.

Check out my harness. LOL! Cool or what?

Pls pardon the hideous shoes. Obviously they don’t belong to me. 😛

The second time I belayed JW, I nearly flew off the cliff when he swung outwards like a pendulum while coming down an inclined section of the rock formation. Luckily, there was a huge rock behind me, so I clung onto it for my dear life, not without first screaming my lungs out and making a scene!

Besides getting laughed at by the seasoned climbers around me, I also sustained a humungous bruise on my left leg and some scratches. So embarrassing! 🙁 I’m surprised I agreed to belay him for a grand total of 8 other climbs!

3) It was my first time staying in a rural European town, which is something I’ve always wanted to do although I’m very much a city girl.

There’s just something about the fresh air, the untainted scenery and the lack of amenities that makes it inexplicably attractive and almost magical.

When the weather was less chilly last week, I threw on the Soffieanne Cascading Dress in Nude Cream, courtesy of Amelie Anne, for one of my rest days from hiking in Rodellar when I’ll wander around the picturesque town and chill out in quaint cafes with a glass of ice-cold coke (not beer) in the company of the scenic mountain view.

I received this dusky pink tank top with lace and ruffles from ClubCouture just before I left for my trip. The minute the wrapping came off, I knew I had to pack it into my luggage immediately.
