My new baju kurung - Kedah style

Yippeee , they are done - my baju kurung that is!! My colleague at work has a very talented mother who can sew. Since I do not have a lot of Malaysian outfit (we call it baju kurung), I bought some material and requested her to make two for me. It is soo comfortable and soft it almost feels like pajamas!! I can sleep at work which may not be a good thing :P zzzzzz
There are a few styles to choose from but my all time favourite is this one, mainly because its comfortable, suits short (or petite is a nicer word) people like me.
This is the blue (which somehow reminds me of a staff uniform at a local bank) but I like it!:

and in dark red wine or magenta, photo taken in front of my desk (hmm a lot of work going here!):

Oh yes these are the photos of the new office!

My desk with lots of clutter, souvenirs and oranges..which reminds me, must have one of those today. That greenish mouse pad is a mouse persian rug I bought whilst in Abu Dhabi verrry soft!

The mini kitchen with a lot of cookies:

On things crafty, over the weekend I came across a super cute beading shop in Kuching. The shop is cosy and has a nice frontage. We went away with some sparkly (is there any other lol) beads for Ash to do some craft!
At the Elizabeth King bead shop at One Jaya!
