Happy New Year Friends!
I hope this year, the year of the snake is a prosperous one for you all.
Despite being such a short trip, I am so grateful I got to spend my Chinese New Year with my loved ones and managed to catch up with family from both sides (Mum is Chinese and Dad of Malay heritage) and friends.
My weekend in photos...
We love Yee Sang, mum especially. We had this on my first night back and a whole lot of other grub. I was much too hungry fresh off the plane and didn't take photos...what's new hah.

I asked them to do a Chinese New Year pose and this what they thought of haha!

Haha if you look hard enough you can see the reflection of my little cousin taking my #OOTD photo.
At my Chek-Kongs' (Grand Uncle) open house. Haha somehow I ended up serving food but it's all good, gave my little cousins and uncle a time out before more guests rolled in.
Looking somewhere but the camera!
Made our way to my Uncles in Kuala Belait (an hour or so drive away) and made it in time for the annual Chinese New Year Lion dance.

Sounds like it was a really nice time with your family - and you look gorgeous in your serpent lace dress, how fitting for the occasion considering it is year of the Snake! x
