mid-autumn munch

rushed back from work to tag along with my mum for a dinner she was invited to at the pine court chinese restaurant in Meritus Mandarin hotel. i liked the ambience and the presentation of the food. but honestly the food wasn't that great. my tummy was hardly filled! everything was all bite size! but the highlight of the dinner were the mooncakes especially the XO and green tea. some games were played like jigsaw puzzle. the prizes were surprisingly good such as a stay in one of the more luxurious rooms in the hotel as well as a food voucher worth $150. sadly we didn't win. theres always next year.

i wasn't in any of the pics but i wore a more smart casual prep look. i kinda like the slightly baggy slim trousers look, paired with a tight fitted top worn with a loose cardigan and scarf, plus loafers of cos! it gives a breezy feel thats stylish. my mum looked fab that night! she wore a blue shimmer shift dress with her killer rock chic heels. i'll take a pic of her heels next time!
