Tiger Turbaned

Since I only have a month in Singapore before it's back to work, school and reality, I've made a mental note to fill every single day with some fun or new activity. So far, I've been pretty successful-- I've visited some main sightseeing areas, many malls, visited Johor Bahru in Malaysia for a quick day trip, and have eaten many delicious meals. Today I went back to an old favourite: biking around the enormous East Coast Park. We rented bicycles and cycled around the area for about two hours before we called it a night. Along the way, my brother and I stopped at some portions of the beach to take in the scenery, watch people surfing, and take pictures.

To prepare for such an activity, I wore my newly-acquired tiger turban that I bought at Forever 21 (a store that is grossly overpriced in Singapore by the way), my acid wash romper, and my new watermelon print sneakers from Cotton On. These were the perfect items for dealing with the heat as the romper was loose-fitting and lightweight, the turban kept my hair out of my face, and my sneakers were comfortable enough for biking long distances.

Since it's about 32 degrees Celsius in Singapore during the daytime, we made sure to start our biking journey at around 4 pm when the heat had died down somewhat. Take a look below to see a couple of Instagram snapshots that I took along the way:

How do you try to beat the heat when you're in the midst of a summer heat wave?
