BABY'S ON FIRE

TAOBAO sweater & choker, THE SCARLETROOM velvet skirt, H&M holographic bag
CHOIES garter leggings, PULL & BEAR socks, YRU Qozmos multi

I can't think of a better outfit to show just how fired up I am about getting back to blogging. Gotta love a sweater that everyone can easily interpret how I feel about the hot weather. Singapore, I'm burnin' up for you, baby. ♫ I may look like I'm melting in this sweater but with the AC constantly blasting in the studio and lecture hall at school, it was a blessing in disguise because I was all warm and toasty. And just when I thought I'm all out of puns, my schoolmates proved me wrong with renditions of that popular line from that popular Alicia Keys song and references to Katniss Everdeen.

This outfit is also featured in my very first Style Diary video! Check it out:


Other outfits featured — FLOWER BOMB and SEEING DOTS (last two coming soon)

Why Style Diary instead of the usual ones you see on youtube that goes, "(Insert Season here) Lookbook"? Well, it makes my life easier but mostly because I feel like it's pointless since we don't get the same kind of seasonal changes here and I don't typically dress according to seasons anyway. While it may be hot and humid 24/7, that doesn't stop me from layering a little and styling these outfits! Even though I end up melting every time I step out of the house, at least I am a lump of goo wearing cute outfits. n__n

BLACK IS A HAPPY COLOUR

Boyfriend's plaid shirt, H&M / Hat, Topshop / Tequilas, Deandri / Astronaut socks, Scape flea

Sorry not sorry, I am all decked out in black. Again. This shouldn't come as a surprise anymore because welcome to Cherylsaurus, where 98% of my wardrobe corresponds with the darkness of my soul. And what better way to show the world how I am feeling inside than this lovely For Love & Lemons dress. It's all business as usual in the front but hollaaaa party at the back! Cue the double takes as you strut by everyone else and bring sexy back. ;)

I MET JENN IM & STEPHANIE! (❁´▽`❁)*✲ﾟ*

Here are my paintings of Jenn Im and Stephanie Villa! (◡‿◡✿)

When I found out that my queens of youtube were going to be here in Singapore for the Digital Fashion Week, I knew I HAD to meet them. Jenn actually visited earlier this year but I didn't get to see her properly because she had to leave early (but she was an angel & commented so I wasn't too sad) . I definitely wasn't going to let the opportunity slip by again!

I figured the perfect gift for them was a painting because Jenn drew me last year during her Bullseye University livestream! I actually had to redo both of them because I was sooo out of touch with traditional mediums. But I thought giving an actual painting would be much better than a print out of a digital artwork.  I am really, really happy with how the paintings turned out :')

*✲ﾟ* 31ST OCTOBER: DFW MEET & GREET *✲ﾟ*


The meet and greet event was 12 to 2 pm and thankfully I am finally ~free from school~ to be able to go for it. When I arrived right before 11 am, there was already a queue but it wasn't too bad ...yet. Soon enough, the queue started to get so long that I think it extended out of the building. Totally didn't regret waking up super early for this!


While queuing, I got to meet the other DFW bloggers — David Guison, Nellie Lim, Willabelle Ong, and Chloe Ting. They were all so sweet and I was even able to personally talk to them for a bit. 
I got to catch up really quick with my lovely babe Willa, who's gorgeous like always. Even though she's been busy jet setting all over the world (cue my "Don't you need to go to school!" nagging) and we have not hung out properly in ages, I am so proud of her and happy to hear that she's doing well! 
♡ ( •⌄• ू )✧ Ahhh it was great to meet one of my fav bloggers, Chloe Ting!!! I have been following her blog & lookbook for more than 2 years. She's such a sweetheart and I'm so glad we got to chat! She even took a photo with me on her camera!! *o* Thank you for always inspiring me, Chloe!!

✌️ I am so happy I got to meet David too! I have been following his blog for a while now and needless to say, his fashion style is A+.

And y'all need to pinch me because I still cannot begin to believe that this happened:


(´♡‿♡`) Soothingsistaaa ~ Extremely happy I got to meet & hug this rad as heck babe Stephanie!!! She's even more gorgeous in real life *u* She even told me that I look great (something along those lines - I was too excited) and I barely managed to squeak out a "not as great as you!!" back. You have no idea how much that means to me, coming from someone who's been such a huge inspiration to me.
I LOVE YOU, STEPH!



(❁´▽`❁)*✲* It's been a few days and I still cannot believe I actually got to actually meet, talk to and hug my queen, Jenn Im! (hey it rhymes!) She is absolutely beautiful in real life and her smile has such warmth and an infectious quality to it. I was just so stunned that I was actually meeting someone who has been a role model to me, someone who I never thought I would get to meet because of how far apart we are and someone who I could only see as pixels on my computer/phone screen. I could barely function properly (thank god I managed to scribble down a letter to Jenn with everything I wanted to say) in front of my all time favourite youtuber that I have been watching since 2012! She is the most genuine, down to earth and raddest babe ever and I am grateful to be able to meet her irl!
I told her that she drew me during her livestream last year and so I did a painting for her as a gift in return. And before I said anything else, she said, "Oh you're Cherylsaurus!!" so I think my life has been made and I can die happy because Jenn actually remembers me from all the way back then?? I mean seriously, just how amazing can this babe be? ♡ Even though our time together was short, I just felt so blessed to be able to bask in her presence! I LOVE YOU 5EVA AND SO MUCH MORE, JENN ♡


I am eternally grateful to be able to meet my role models and the best babes ever. But also, I'm sad that the moment happened so fast. That's to be expected during a m&g and I get that they were trying to get through as many people as possible within such a short span of time. I just wish we could hang out and talk properly! Ah well, until next time I guess! x

MOTO BOHO

Hippy crop top, Reverse ℅ Shopbop / Choker & necklace, The Moon Label / Leather jacket, H&M

The Scarlet Room velvet skirt, secondhand / Choke boots, UNIF / Suede bag, thrifted

First things first, I'm the realest  YES, I cut my hair! My hair has been long for years and I felt like I needed a change. Not regretting the snip at all — which is strange since I am such a fickle person. And speaking of fickle, the weather has been pretty temperamental lately and it seems like there's (fingers crossed) a lot of rainy days up ahead! Any time nature decides to bless us with a rainy day, I am sure many fellow Singaporeans will understand my sheer joy and the need to take advantage of the cooler weather to dress up!

And for those much further away from the equator, Fall is here! I heard that there's a heat wave going on so, I hope the weather has been cooling down! If I had the chilly autumn weather over here, my personal five essentials for Fall would be:
⟡ ⟡ 1) leather jacket 2) dark red lipstick 3) velvet 4) combat boots ⟡ ⟡

I feel like this outfit would be a good example of a transitional Summer to Fall look. I got a lot of wear out of this crop top because it's made of this soft material and it's super breezy on hot summer days. I am totally digging the bohemian vibes from lace trimming. And to keep the boho feel going, I have my lovely fringed bag that was actually handmade by a Native American! Orange is a hot colour on the runway this season and it was a nice pop of colour for an otherwise monochromatic look! Another two 2014 runway trend favs would be velvet and the military trend. This is where my new badass UNIF combat boots, leather jacket and velvet skirt come in to toughen up the look. Fall is all about that dark lipstick and even darker ensembles!

I recently discovered an awesome site called Raise! Raise is a new online marketplace where you can purchase gift cards at discounted prices. You can even sell any gift cards that you aren't gonna use and make some extra cash for more shopping! If you, like me, love to shop, this is definitely a site to check out. There are so many brands to choose from, like my fashion favourites H&M, Urban Outfitters, PacSun, Anthropologie, Nordstrom Rack, Steven Madden and more! There's even gift cards other brands like Toys R Us, Barnes & Noble, Amazon! Hey, Christmas is coming up reaaaal soon so why not start shopping for your family, friends and yourself! *✧₊✪͡◡ू✪͡

OH, BOY.

Jacket, Cotton On / BOY shirt, secondhand / Leather skirt, thrifted / Sunglasses, Editors Market
Tattoo choker, The Cobra Shop / Holographic circle bag, H&M / Pentagram socks, Topshop

OH, BOY. It's been a while, I know. Life's been crazy but it's been good. I'm finally back and ready to get back to the grind. Especially excited to show you my upcoming posts so hope you stick around!

Back to the outfit — this is a really old outfit (hence the weird fringe) that finally got its chance to shine on Wolf Gypsy. But hey, it's been raining quite often here in SG nowadays and you will find me in an outfit combo similar to this. Going all black as usual with pops of burgundy and my lovely holographic bag!
