What could be a better summer evening than attending a private viewing for an art exhibition? Well, boyfriend surprised me by taking me to this special Batik Hot Wax exhibition in Lauderdale House.
Batik is a wax and dye process on fabric that originates from SE Asia and Africa . I have always been fascinated about it. Basically, melted wax is applied to cloth before being dipped in dye. This exhibition is to celebrate transforming this beautiful process into contemporary art. These works done by some great local artists are truly amazing – each piece has that rich and beautiful colour with some original and creative design! I was absolutely amused by all these incredible arts! Plus the music and the food, we had a great time! (Of course, we have to take some pictures in the spectacular garden before going in.)

i'm trying to stay off the web. yet, your post made me glad i didn't. really too beautiful for words. your photography belongs in magazines.
I Love Batik, I used to do it in high school, but I was never THAT good. Amazing.
fantastic pics...Great outfit!!
the artworks are amazing no?
ilove this outfit the most! :) esp those skirts! :)
have a nice day! :)
I took a World Art course in school and we learned all about batik. Needless to say I made a batik shirt of my own. It was really easy. I just used wax and RIT dye and then ironed the wax off. It was really great.
Oh& your blog is great. we seem to have a lot in common. I def think a link is in order!
Beautiful pieces, this is an artist I have never looked at, the process sounds very interesting, that's always one of the things that draws me to an artist! Wow, a private viewing!! I think you are a secret princess?? hehe xx
beautiful! love your shoes.
these pictures are stunning! you look positively lovely, as always :)
love your dress and accessories. you are definitely my type of savvy gal. you are right, the chanel bike is around that price.
Stunning look, as usual =)
I studied batik making in boarding school, and I must say your post made me pull out all my traditional "baju kurung" just to look at the patterns...makes me miss home so much!!! I shall have to post the patterns online one of these days...thanks.
you and that dress blend so well into this beautiful garden. :]
oh my. another gorgeous outfit on a gorgeous you. =]
i adore the pics that you post. really great shots. ^^
Beautiful!!!
I love your Sense of style, and i love that gorgeous gorgeous skirt :)

um probably one of my favorite photos, ever, is of you on the tree stump! the little bow on your dress is icing to the cake. you look so pretty.
Once again, a round of applause for photography...
I love your hair, and I love those shoes. Can't believe theyre Ralph Lauren. I've never stumbled upon his non polo line shoe wear and can hardly imagine him making a shoe without a pony on it, hehe.
so beautiful and elegant! these photos are lovely :)
the art pieces and the photos are beautiful ;) I esp love the one where you sat on the ledge next to the river. That place looks absolutely amazing. i wish we had more places like that in Singapore! is your boyfriend a photographer?
That is an amazing and beautiful dress! Very cool scenery in which you take your pictures. I also really like the vibrant colors of the art pieces that you posted.
What a pretty dress - the skirt is a piece of art itself. And I love the picture of you standing on the statue. The exhibition looks nice, too. Lovely pictures.
Oh wow, that dress is divine! And you look absolutely stunning, as always. I am in love with the photo of you squatting on that stump with the shoes and bag casually scattered around.
Applause!
Did you ever do ballet? That's a gorgeous balancing pose. The paintings are wonderful..I can feel the heat off of them from here!
Btw, would you like to trade links?

Grayburn

Re: You have no idea how sweet your comments are, and how much they mean to me. Thank you, aren't you the sweetest.
And you take the most gorgeous pictures. Gorgeous dress and love the picture with the shoe. Genious.
You keep reminding me of Carrie Bradshaw - maybe a more sophisticated version, a twist between Charlotte and Carrie.
Anyway, Batik is very popular here in Malaysia, in fact I own a few traditional costumes in Batik prints :) Very happy to see you 'promoting' one of our finest art techniques.. and of course, thanks for dropping by and left a lovely comment! x
As always, your photos are beautiful. I love hearing about your little adventures! You look gorgeous as always xxx
Your photos are always so poetic. And your dress and shoes are so pretty, finding the perfect background in this romantic place. Big kiss -x-
Miss L, I visited H&M again and yay! they did have the blouse again, even in my size! but they didn't have the skirt... i'll think about it, if I'll get the blouse without the skirt... and yeah, they have deliveries twice a week (!!!), can you believe it? thanks for your sweet comments!
you know, when i read the title of your post, i first thought it was going to be about LEG wax ^^
and i'm really happy that you checked the CD out and that you are going to get it as well! love you! xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
