Hey lovelies!
Even though winters have officially arrived in India, I can't help sharing one of favorite outfits from my Singapore diaries which will surely remind you of the sunny days.

On the last day of my Singapore trip, I visited Universal Studios with my friends.

Universal Studios is one of the most popular theme parks om the world, located within Resorts World Sentosa on Sentosa Island, Singapore. It is also the first Hollywood movie theme park of Southeast Asia and boasts of world-class attractions and breathtaking rides that left me with some amazing memories.

For my visit to the Universal Studios, I decided to wear my halter-back from ZARA in a lovely sunny shade which totally reflected my mood of the day - cheerful and happy! To my surprise, the color blended really well with the attractions at the theme park - making all my pictures look really
color co-ordinated, especially with the Minions .

Have a look at how I styled my dress with a pair of reflectors, hat and floral printed shoes :

This is one of the last posts from my Singapore diaries ( except the Shopping Haul that's coming up next), and I hope you all liked seeing and knowing more about Singapore through my eyes. Don't forget to leave your views in the Comments below!

Hola chicas!

Here's the third post from my Singapore diaries along with pictures of one of my favorite outfits that I wore during my trip.
While headed out for a city tour and a day full of shopping on a sunny day, I decided to wear a breezy and comfortable outfit so that I could explore the city with ease.

I chose to wear this denim dress from ZARA as you can never go wrong with an all-over denim dress whether you chose to wear it for a lunch date or a day out for shopping. To add more comfort factor, I styled it with a pair of printed sneakers that I had purchased from H&M in Singapore.

My go-to bag during my trip was this cute Tommy Hilfiger sling bag which is small but spacious enough to store a small wallet, passport and sunglasses.

Check out some pictures of my outfit plus the places I explored :

Breakfast at Holiday Inn Atrium

After a hearty meal at our hotel, we headed for a city tour in one of the hop-on hop-off buses that take you through the major attractions across the city.

We explored the Gardens by the Bay, Shoppes mall, Merlion Park, Orchard Road market, Bugis Street and Anchor Point.

Merlion Park

Gardens by the Bay

Gardens by the Bay is an awe-inspiring park spanning 101 hectares in central Singapore, adjacent to the Marina Reservoir. It is famous for its three waterfront gardens: Bay South Garden, Bay East Garden and Bay Central Garden that offer a breathtaking experience of nature.

I ended my day with loads of shopping (pictures coming in next post) from Anchor Point and an amazing dessert from Gelatissimo - a famous ice-cream point in Singapore.

Hey everyone!

I am back with the second post from my Singapore diaries, which I know I have been posting very slowly - but I have been really occupied with few things lately which don't leave me with any time to write.

But, I do try to update my social media pages daily, so if you want to follow my fashion and lifestyle diaries - don't forget to follow me on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Snapchat.

Singapore Cable Car

Coming back to this post, the agenda on our second day in Singapore was to explore Sentosa Island and its various attractions.

Breakfast at Holiday Inn Atrium

After a hearty breakfast at Holiday Inn Atrium, we headed to the Sentosa Island which is a popular island resort in Singapore which was located quite close to our hotel. The island is accessible by a monorail, Sentosa Boardwalk and a cable car. If you want to have a memorable experience, you should try to access the island through the cable car which originates from Mount Faber and passes through HarbourFront en route to its final destination at Imbiah Lookout.

The route offers a spectacular view of the island, passing over a highway, HarbourFront cruise bay and onto Sentosa, the State of Fun.

I had chosen a very convenient package from Tripxoxo to explore the Sentosa Island - that included a cable car return ticket and tickets for various attractions at the island. Infact, you can choose from many Sentosa Island packages available at Tripxoxo to suit your budget and travel requirements - that will make sure you don't have to waste time buying the tickets individually at the island.

View from the Tiger Sky Tower

Upon reaching the island, the first attraction I explored was the Tiger Sky Tower - which is an observatory tower, rotating up to 131 metres above sea level, offering360-degree panoramic views across Singapore's cityscape as well as neighbouring countries!


After having a breathtaking view of Singapore's various attractions from the Tiger Sky Tower, I moved to explore the Images of Singapore LIVE show - a unique, fun and interactive theatrical show, that takes you on a journey to uncover the nation's extraordinary story.



The LIVE show that takes you through the rich history of Singapore in a very attractive way ends with a boat ride that celebrates everything unique about the Singapore culture. After the show, one enters the Madame Tussauds museum which ofcourse, was one of the most thrilling experiences of my Sentosa Island visit.

It hosts wax statues of various sports, politics, music as well as film personalities - from Singapore, Asia and beyond.

Madame Tussauds Singapore

I loved to get myself clicked with Modiji, Shahrukh, Taylor Swift and many other statues, but the most funny statues were of Aishwarya Rai, Madhuri Dixit and Angelina Jolie - which were drastically different from what these celebs actually look in-person.

Post visiting Madame Tussauds, I grabbed a quick cup of coffee at the Starbucks situated at the Sentosa Island - which I was surprised to know that priced quite reasonably and had a good offering of food as well.



Later, I explored the Sentosa Merlion - a legendary symbol of Singapore which is a mythical creature with a lion's head and a fish's body - as a guardian of prosperity which personifies Singapore's history as an important seaport.
It offers two views - one from the mouth of the Merlion and other from the crown - at 60 metres above sea level. There is also a Wishing bell located at the mouth of the Merlion - which is popularly known to make your wishes come true - well I don't know if the wishes do actually come true - but it was a beautiful experience indeed seeing the beauty of Singapore from this landmark.




The last part of the day was exploring the famous SEA Aquarium - home to more than 100,000 marine animals of over 800 species, across into 49 different habitats, each one as fascinating as the next.
The aquarium is huge - unlike any I have seen before and is so much fun to explore.

Hey everyone!
It's the Fashion Week fever again in town, but this season I am being away as I have to be in Ludhiana with my family. Team TSD would still keep you updated with what's going around the Fashion Week through our social media handles.

Coming back to this post, I am going to share more about my recent trip to Singapore, which many of you would have had a glimpse of, through my Instagram and Snapchat account.
Many friends and fans reached out to know my experience, especially how I went about choosing which places to explore, how to get the best tickets etc. to ensure a smooth and leisure-filled trip.

Well, being a leisure traveller, I always prefer getting my bookings done before-hand, so that I can have a smooth trip without any worries or last-minute issues. That's why when a friend suggested me to book my travel through TripXOXO, I was intrigued to check out more.


TripXOXO is a unique digital platform for travellers to make hassle-free bookings for activities, airport transfers, trips etc. that one may need upon reaching the destination. They currently offer over 15000 experiences in over 70 countries, and are adding more every week.

Upon checking the platform first, I was pleasantly surprised to see that they cover almost all the major tourist attractions with unique packages for various activities. The search results can further be filtered through Categories like Nightlife, Transfers, Activities etc. or through Price range.



If you are still confused about what activities would be of your interest, you can reach out to their team through call or mail, who would be happy to guide you through various interesting activities and choices.

While browsing activities to do in Singapore, I was sure I wanted to check out two of its major attractions - Sentosa Island and Universal Studios for sure - while I wasn't sure about what other activities I might like.

But then I came across activities like Gardens by the Bay, City Tour, Night Safari, Sky Park etc. which seemed to be really interesting and falling in my budget as well.


One of the major features that I liked about TripXOXO is that they have listed activities that can suit every budget. So even if you think an activity might be a little over your budget, you can check out some other option for the same activity that may lack one or two frills, but would still ensure an amazing experience.

After selecting the activities that you would like to explore, you can select the dates on which you would like to explore them ( On the Calendar option - Dates in green would be the ones that are available while dates in red are no longer available), and further you can select the desired starting time and number of people you are booking for.

Singapore Flyer

The payment process is also quite simple, as you can make a payment with a VISA or MasterCard credit card, or with PayPal through a secure Payment Gateway.

Now, I was kind of worried about whether I would receive my vouchers timely, and if these vouchers would be accepted at the desired location or not. But, the TripXOXO team addressed all my queries, and the vouchers were directly mailed to me with the confirmation mail.

View from the Sands SkyPark Observation Deck

Upon reaching Singapore, during the activity day, the Tour guide brought-in all the original tickets (some activities don't accept online vouchers) as I handed them over my confirmation mail and vouchers received by mail.
Therefore, ensure that you don't delete the mails till the time your trip is completed, as you might need to show them to your Tour operator. You can also head to your Bookings section on TripXOXO to see all of your past and upcoming bookings and vouchers.

Cable Car at Sentosa Island

As I had some goof-up during my Flight bookings, I was happy that I made my remaining travel bookings through TripXOXO which ensured that my entire trip and experience in Singapore went really smooth, hassle-free, and filled with leisure and joy.

Therefore, whether you are an adventure-seeker, leisure traveller or a luxury traveller, you'll surely find a lot of experiences to make your next trip amazing with TripXOXO.

PS : Stay tuned, as I share my detailed Singapore experiences in the coming posts!

Hola chicas!
Hope you all are doing well. If you all have followed me on Instagram/Snapchat, you might have seen the numerous pictures I shared last month from my Singapore vacation. Well, finally I am sharing in detail about the places I explored in Singapore and what all I shopped.

My first day in Singapore started with an in-length visit of the renowned Changi Airport, Singapore. Why you ask? Well, it's because the Changi Airport is a beautiful destination in itself that you would love to explore for hours long.

Infact, it's so cool and fun, that you might end up having more fun at the airport as compared to the other places in Singapore.

Be warned though, this is going to be a lengthyyyy post!


The place is like a mall or a theme park in itself with so many attractions for tourists that you'll need atleast 1 day to cover them all.

Whether you are a shopaholic like me, foodie or a traveller who loves to relax during a long layover or have some extra time to pass before your flight - Changi Airport will definitely keep you entertained with its exciting offerings.

While, I didn't have an entire day for exploring the airport, I did end up spending half a day exploring the attractions at the airport and another few hours before my flight for shopping.

Butterfly Garden

The first Butterfly Garden at an airport ever at the Terminal 3 has more than 1,000 tropical butterflies from as many as 40 species. You can also see their breeding and feeding at close range in this breathtaking garden.

Oh, and you can also try holding one of these cuties, like I did in this picture-


Now, if I come towards the Shopping part, well - Changi Airport is undoubtedly a haven for shopaholics. With numerous international brands and Duty Free favourites like Cosmetics & Perfumes by Shilla, Liquor & Tobacco by DFS and Electronics & Computers by Sprint-Cass, you'll be spoilt for choice while shopping at the airport.

Duty Free shopping is definitely the best part, as they offer prices that are cheaper to anywhere else in Singapore.

Whether you want to shop for luxury brands like FURLA and MICHAEL KORS, or high-street brands like Charles & Keith and ZARA, the airport has shops across all the terminals, so that you can avail the best offers with ease.
