Cakenis Temasek (Singapura..Oh Singapura)
"Singapura, oh, Singapura,
Sunny island sets in the sea.
Singapura, oh, Singapura,
Pretty flowers bloom for you and me."
This series ignite my childhood!
Temasek is a synonym for Singapore (Malay: Singapura).
Since we are a true blue Singaporean, this cakenis series have a special place in my heart that I can connect to. The colors inspiration for this series is from our national flower. None other than the "ORCHID" flower which is a hybrid dicovered by Miss Vanda Joaquim.
Caring for this flower is like caring for a woman. It has to be grown in a moist and well-draining environment with the right amount of light. Women in general pamper their faces with moisturiser (I started this a little too late in my early twenties) and I personally do not like hot weather and perspiring under my hijab. Windy sunny days are love especially when the tudung moves gracefully with the wind. It exudes elegance in us.
