Shining Shimmering Holidays

First of all, Happy Holidays everyone! :) I hope you had a very merry Christmas with your loved-ones!

In lieu of the glitter trend this season, this is my little tribute to my new baby, gold glitter brogues from Trunk Show. Aren't they adorable? I just love them sooo much: they're comfortable, chic, and most of all, they have glitters!!! Shining shimmering splendid shoes perfect for the season. Thank you Trunk Show, I have always been such a fan. Not only are the styles amazing but the quality of the shoes is also very admirable.

I'm so sorry for the rather blurry shots, we're improvising using my hubby's HTC camera phone 'coz he left my memory card at his laptop. #annoyed
I'm just kidding.

So okay, that face shows the annoyed look. LOL.

But of course, with or without a decent camera, our lovely date must continue. For this occasion, we chose to dine at Dillingers 1903 at Greenbelt 3. I googled the place and found out that it was named after a notorious American bank robber John Dillinger who was born in 1903, hence, the name of the restaurant. Very creative, eh?

I'm quite impressed with the restaurant's facade. It has black, wooden interiors, with intimate lights and a very cozy ambiance. It also features a sleek bar stand with all sorts of alcohol. It's like something you watch in a chick flick, where the guy gets to order a drink for the lady. Haha!

We had to order their bestseller, the Buffalo Wings. I must say, they're a bit spicy and have very strong flavour.

We also had their Pepper Steak which was indeed delectable. I also have to mention the fries, for RM liked them very much. We ordered another plate afterwards.

Cheers! We're not much of a drinker, so RM and I had the Mojito. It's a combination of white rum, lime juice, mint, and sparkling soda water. The drink is refreshingly citrus with a minty flavor, sweet at the same time.

After that, we had the Lemon Drop Shots! It's more of a lemon-flavored candy, but seriously has an oozing aftertaste of alcohol. Oh well, I liked it!

Feeling so homey!
