LIVE, LOVE, BLOG WITH:

Hi Spicer + Bank readers, I am Jessie from Mix And Chic. I am thrilled to be a guest on Allison's lovely blog to share some of my favorite things.


{1} Your favorite thing about your hometown? 
I am originally from Malaysia. I was born and raised in a lovely little town named Ipoh. Ipoh is well known for its delicious food. People from many neighboring states often make a stop here for its inexpensive and tasty fare.

Ipoh's famous Flat Rice Noodles, Crunchy Bean Sprouts, and Dry Curry Mee

In additional to Ipoh's famous good food, what I love about Ipoh is the iconic and majestic architecture.

{2} Your favorite product or design trend of the moment? 

I have many favorites but one of my most favorite is tufted headboard. A tufted bed always looks gorgeous, elegant and timeless, what's not to love?

{3} Your favorite design icon or style-maker (past or present)?

I have a long list of favorites but one of all time favorite designer is Phillipe Starck. I have long admired his work. Take these beautiful pieces for example.

{4} Your favorite spot or item in your home? 

A beautiful cow hide rug I recently purchased at a discounted price at Ikea. It is very similar to the cow hide rug below.

{5} Your favorite indulgence or guilty pleasure?

Starbucks Mocha Frappucino blended beverage! I am sure it is calorie-loaded but it is something I indulge once in a while. I am sure it is also one of your favorites, yes?

Thank you for having me, Allison. This is quite fun to put together!
