OOTD Fun Shoot → Kam Leng Hotel & Suprette's Yummy Lunch

My Off Day Fun Shoot @ Kam Leng Hotel

Is right at the beginning of Jalan Besar. You can get there via a short walk from Boon Keng or Lavender MRT stations. Kam Leng was first established in 1927 by a mysterious owner whose identity remains unknown. The owners have painstakingly restored the place with a lot of careful detailing. Guests will enjoy a nice retro-modern fusion experience. Kam Leng is so pretty and peaceful. Was so quiet inside (even with busy Jalan Besar on the outside). Is super clean and neat.

Super cute bedrooms: (photos from Kam Leng's webpage: http://www.kamleng.com/index.php/therooms/)

A surprisingly tranquil café & bar with really good & fresh food. Very quiet. A great place to run away to for some "me time". The "Besar Breakfast" is so good - quality sausages, quality bacon back and bacon strips, tasty Mexican beans, sautéed mushrooms, fresh hand cut potatoes, eggs anyway you want it (including poached). Suprette's also famous for its hamburgers.

Pairing Your Dr. Martens With 4 Styles of Unusual Socks

Pairing Your Dr. Martens With 4 Styles of Unusual Socks

Fans of Dr. Marten shoes are always searching for some novelty and unusual socks to pair with their beloved shoes.

Here are 4 ideas that will go really well - unique (and possibly hard to find) socks for your DrM !

1. Enchanted Lace Over The Knee (Phantom Black)

These wonderful knee length socks are so sweet. You fold the laces over the knees and they look really adorable.

Store: Sox Devine
Facebook: @soxdevine

2. Ruffle Shortie 3-Pack Socks (Grey, Black, White)

These ruffle socks are pretty unusual. I love how their ruffle edges are accented into a contrasting color. They come as a pack of three colors: grey, white and black, making them so friendly to match to Dr.M shoes.

Store: Karmaloop

3. Total Helmsman Length Socks from NEY

These thick netted socks are so adorable and hard to find. They come in 4 colors - Lilac, Yellow, Black and White. I've been wearing them for quite abit with my Dr.M Mary Janes and they are so comfortable.
 

These are purchased through the Rakuten online store: vision-passion(家電雑貨販売のVISION). You will also need a parcel service provider such as Vpost Japan or Tenso as Vision Passion does not ship internationally.
