Korea | March 2016 | Day 8 | Dumplings & Back Home

COS black long jumper | Zara Girls striped sweatshirt | All Saints leather jacket

Didn't do much on the last day, having a flight to catch. Wandered around the neighbourhood and found this really lovely little dumpling place (apparently pretty popular with locals too) in a back alley. A guy giving out flyers on the main road brought us in and initially, we wanted to escape and make a detour to walk away but I'm so glad we didn't. Seriously yummy dumplings! Loved the filling.

And also, this was my airport outfit. I don't wear leggings without tops that wouldn't cover my bum. really wanted to go for a striped sweatshirt and leather jacket look but didn't have a chance to the entire trip so I had to make it work on the last day. This super soft striped sweatshirt was too cropped to cover my bum, so I layered it with a longline jumper underneath. A light grey one would be perfect but I only had a black one with me then!

Korea | March 2016 | Day 7 | Seoul Shopping

COS wool blazer & tee | ASOS Petite jeans | Agnès b. necklace

Most mediocre bingsu I've had in my life

Spent a day shopping around in Seoul in one of my favourite outfits. It's all really simple but well made pieces, really (I know, I'm back with this again). This is seriously one of my favourite jackets - it's a lightweight wool navy blazer - great for travelling without bringing a whole bunch of thick jackets and looking all poofy in fluffy coats. It has a really clean cut and goes so well with everything else (that I own). Really glad I found it in the sale several seasons ago!

Also, can we just talk about that blueberry ricotta cheese salad. One of the best salads I've ever eaten in my life (one of the other yummiest salads is featured in my previous Korea post here). Seriously, salads in Korea are so good!

And also, I was really looking forward to eat pat bingsu in Korea but because it was still Spring when I was there, barely any cafes had it (probably because t was still too cold) and we stumbled upon this cafe which opened till late. Seriously, the bingsu sucked lol. I've had so many better ones in SG, ohwell.

Korea | March 2016 | Day 6 | Paju | Provence Village | Hyeri Art Village | Paju Premium Outlet

Burberry Kids trench | Mango dress

Massimo Dutti cardigan | Aldo boots

So glad I stumbled upon Paju online and decided to spend a day there. Hyeri Art Village is seriously architecture heaven. Absolute favourite, I will definitely make it a point to drop by when I go to Seoul again in future (have been there 4-5 times now, just thought I was running out of things to do in Seoul). Absolutely love walking around there, and bought the most amazing ring (which I wear nonstop now). Lunch was super yummy, one of the best meals I've ever had in Korea.
