Hiatus

On a long hiatus till September. I am too pooped out from my work internship. Sorry!

Soak Republic



Awesome silver and swarovski crystals make this necklace a real crowning glory. Now you'll have a crown necklace to match the crown ring in the previous post... :D

The Cookie Crew



Gone are the days where there would be only one thing in fashion. But I should be thankful. Now we have a plethora of designs that are in, and we can choose whichever designs that suit us and wear them. Remember, it's all about the style; not the fashion. One of the latest crazes (well, not so new, but they're still in!) are the dual-toned dresses. You have them separated at the waist, and at the bust area. Best thing about them is that you look like you're wearing two different outfits. Kind of like how we used to look like we're layering two tshirts when we had that long-sleeved top with a different coloured short sleeve...if you know what I'm talking about. Anyway, here is yet another dual-toned dress with a heart shaped collarline and kind-of-puffy sleeves! Works great for casual wear and the office too. Even has a matching belt!




Beautiful Disaster











Omg! Omg omg omg! I got excited when I saw their selection of fishnet tights. And then I saw their selection of these funky printed tights! Seriously, just kill me now and I'd fly straight to heaven. I haven't seen any of these on our shores (or maybe I haven't been looking hard enough) but here they are, and Beautiful Disaster has other crazy prints as well! This will go so totally well with those long oversized tees that you're crazy about now.

Guess who? Did you miss me? :D

Kooky Eighties



Guess who's having a sale? Fresh from their Best Service Blogshop win by The Purple Journal, they are having a sale to commemorate their win as thanks to you lovely customers! And also, it's to clear stock to bring in more items, which is always good news to us!


My Vintage Garden







Skirts these days are just testing you aren't they?? How short can you go; that is the question. This looks really really short; I don't dare to pull it off! Well maybe with tights, I just might...but! It's chiffon! Doesn't that mean it'll be really light and the wind will just blow it up easily. Sigh, fashion, you are evil! *shakes fists* But yet so cool. Haha.




47 YKJ Closet






It must be the dawn of the rocker chick era, it must be! How else would it explain all the studs that I'm seeing around...everywhere! From cinchers to cuffs to skirts to dresses to vests to shoes...hey, let's have studded earrings wtf! Anyway, this studded dress is the first of its kind that I've seen. Better grab it and make it a starting trend!




Syiok Sendiri Sisters







I must be watching too many anime and reading too much manga, because I can't help but go, "Kyaaa!" when I see this crown ring! So embarrassing *blushes*. Nonetheless, rings have really evolved since the simple band around the finger, ay? Nothing like subtlety to proclaim your royalty than with a crown ring instead of a crown crown. Haha.





Phat Culture







Say hello to the studded vest! Yes, I know I've been MIA during the start of this studded craze, and I am just joining the crowd. So passe, I know. Don't think vests are a thing of the past, because they are having a comeback now with the latest studded craze! What a way to combine two good things together. Although imho, I wish there were more of the studs like Miley Cyrus' vest instead of just lining the sides of this vest! I'm awaiting that with bated breath. :P





La'Belle Closet






Here's a cute LBD you can wear to family functions and get the parent's approval without losing your style! Clean cut and so totally modest, but check out the back! A little key-hole covered in lace, with an uber cute bow to match. How's that for injecting some pizzazz into a plain LBD?

One word: Internship.

Today was my first day, and I am already busy as hell. I'm so pooped. T_T

So I'm sorry, but updates will be really, really, slow. But I promise to post up the Reader Requests daily. :)

On a better note, I just joined Twitter! Yeah I'm like a million years too late, so what else is new? 

Follow me *here*!

At least now that I've gotten this, I can still post updates, albeit small ones, while I'm interning. Teehee.

VeJae

Now isn't this a pretty dual-toned dress? It has colourful polka dots, for God's sake. The studded cincher is really matchy with the dress, but too bad it's not included ay? :(  Looks good with strappy heels!

Addicted2Fashion

  

Even though I do not like the scratchy material of lace, you gotta admit that this is one pretty piece! It's ready stock too, so you don't need to wait in agony for weeks to get this beauty. A pity that the inner piece isn't included though. Le sigh! My favourite is the white one, but the beige one looks good too for a more vintage feel. 

Le Femme Fatale

I still don't like monogrammed designer bags much, so I chose this gold-blinged-Barbie-with-diamante-encrusted-chain-necklace to review! As much as I don't really like gold, this is kind of cool. In a gangsta way. Especially, if you wear this with a long rocker top with black glossy leggings. 

Jopie's Wardrobe

Pre-loved stuff here, but check out this kebaya. How many kebayas can you get for only RM25? Hardly. I'd like to get a nice piece and wear it with skinny jeans; it'd look so cool, but they are expensive, no kidding. 

Peep

Oh yays, they've finally updated and look! They included in a tank top, one of my personal favourite item of clothing. *big wet eyes* Check out the prints; they look as if they've jumped out straight from an ad in the 60s or something. Looks cool with mid-length plaid shorts!

Moi Closette

Yet another must-have basic for the fashionista's wardrobe; plain sleeveless camisoles in monochromatic shades of black, grey and white. Though I must say this isn't too plain; which is good. We need some spice in our lives, like the buttons and the lace on this one. :)

Garde Robe

Now I haven't seen this before. A dual toned dress with a lace top; and is it see-through? If it is and you're uncomfortable, there's always the option of layering. Layer with a long-sleeved top, or a tank top, or a halter, whatever you like. Just make sure the colour doesn't clash!

Doublewoot

It's summer 365 days in Malaysia, so yay for the neverending supply of summer dresses for us. Since the weather is absolutely crazy now, I'm sure we all welcome the sleeveless clothing. I myself am decked out in a tank top and shorts now, phew. *fans self* But we can't wear tank tops and shorts forever. So bring in this cute sundress with the vintage florals and lace trims! It will look even cuter with hemp-heeled espadrilles. 

Ministry of Clothes

It's every girl's favourite word: SALES! That's what MOC is giving you, and this gingham heels is just one of the things you need to grab before it's all gone, baby, gone. 

One-Stop Bag N Shoe

 

Sky high peep toes in a variety of colours. I still don't understand though, why when there are a range of colours for a certain item of clothing/shoes/accessories, they are immediately labelled "candy coloured"? Black is certainly not a candy colour except for liquorice. :P

Meluvfashion

This one here is a little bit far off, but hey, almost any guy item available online must be reviewed! This graphic tshirt reminds me of a Franz Ferdinand music video, but its title escapes me at this moment...hmm. Anyways, this tshirt looks great with a pair of well fitting jeans, but no track pants please!

Phelauwer Boutique

Are you a fan of Snoopy? My friend is. She'll love this tshirt to bits. Since it's a long tee, it'll definitely look good with the ankle length leggings!

Chocolate Toast

At first glance, this totally looked like a nurse's outfit. But a better look shows that this dress is more suited to the offices. Find it a bit too plain for you? Wear a cincher!

Dolly Kyande

I like the red clutch. It's very lolita-ish, but yet has a formal elegance to it. And I know you girls like the chain and ribbon weaved chain. Looks good with the classic LBD.

Closet Chaos

Guess who's having sales? These skirts are going for only RM30! What a steal for such gorgeous preppy skirts. Hurry before you miss out on them. ;)

Le Femme Fatale

When I first saw this fairy Prada bags on Kinky Blue Fairy, I was enthralled by them. For once, a designer good that I actually like! I've never seen a long purse with that design though. I'm currently looking for a purse, and this one has a good chance of making my cut. Teehee. 

Topsy Turvee

Bright floral tank tops for only RM18?? A pity that this one is already reserved, but they still have some available! Long tops are great for those who want to wear leggings as pants. Covers the ass to conceal that VPL - visible panty line.

10 Things I Love About Me!

You have to see their collection of necklaces; absolutely gorgeous! My favourite is this guitar one. It will look so perfect with a long tank top and black liquid leggings! You should definitely get this for some necklace variety; this is layering at its best. Plus, no need to buy multiple necklaces too. 

Beautiful Disaster

They have so many gorgeous hairbands I don't know which to choose. The best thing? They're all handmade with love. Also, they're all a different style so you'll never see someone wearing the same thing. This is just so perfect to dress up your hair without putting in excessive product. 

Heaven For Angels

Here's a cute Paul Frank tie to either do an Avril Lavigne, or give it to your man to liven up his outfit a bit. A note of caution; don't make him wear it when he has an important business meeting! Teehee.

2ºVroom

Authentic watches for sale. Here's one for the men; a Casio tank watch that's guaranteed to look good on any wrist.

Autumn Closet

More dual toned goodies for those who haven't gotten any. Gasp! What era are you living in?? Why haven't you gotten one?? If you're loving that bright red cincher, good news! It's included as well. :D

Garde Robe

Choose from a range of statement tshirts for the cynical in you. My favourite is this one. :D

Material Girl

Now that design is almost a replica of the original. So for us who can't afford the real thing, we take the alternative which is tonnes cheaper than the original. But still as cute! Looks great with skinny jeans or by itself. :D

Rainbow's Curl

Wasn't there a dress with a similar design to this? I remember everyone was raving about it because it's the exact same dress that Cameron Diaz wore to some event. To be honest, I like this one so much better. Babydoll tops always score a good point in my lookbook!

Femme By JE

Ooh, more sweet girly clothes for you to choose from! I like this babydoll dress with the really sweet blue and green colours. The quintessential summer dress. :D

Madison's Factory Online

If you love going to FOS to shop for clothes, you should like this. Branded apparel from factory outlets with prices slashed till they're so cheap you could cry. 

Jovy's Wardrobe

Something more office-like for the OLs. Here it is, the dual toned which looks so much like a separate piece I could tear my hair out trying to differentiate them. *sobs* The skirt part is very nice! Looks like a pencil skirt but thankfully not as long.

Margarita Maiden

Like the dawn of the dual-toned dresses era, theses "vintage" floral skirts are also plaguing the online shopping scene. With good reason. I know it's almost summer, but florals are very in! If you check out the overseas scene, you can see florals everywhere; dresses, skirts, the works. It's really quite pretty, if you don't overdo it. :) A cute floral mini like this will look great with a tank top (then again, I am always pairing almost everything pattern-y with tank tops). Teehee. Espadrilles too!

Sexy Sweet Life

Yay, more dual-toned dresses! This batch are sleeveless, and you should definitely check out the variety of designs that she has. I swear, with the amount of dual-toned dresses coming out, you can totally start a collection already. 

Baby Be Dazzled

Check out the range of bows she has here! She has pussybows and small bows. Bows you can wear on your head, and bows you can wear on your clothes. Be creative. Remember that basic top you have? Jazz it up with this bow! Or be totally different, and wear this bow on your head with a totally tomboy-ish ensemble. 

Dr. Pizzicato

 

I couldn't decide which to review between this two, so I picked both! And I like them both cause it's different than what you'd usually see in the market. That cardigan is so not argyles, but yet I don't know what kind of print to call them. That triangle-geometrical thingamajig? Haha. A fabulous addition to your wardrobe. And that dress? The so-called boyfriend tee is so out; this plaid shirtdress is in! I like the cutting of the sleeves the length, the sash, and the fact that you can wear this as an overcoat as well. :D

Motte

 

I'll be honest. I only posted up the picture of the back view of the dress because I totally dig that tattoo. =X But! But! This dual-toned dress is real awesome too. I especially like the skirt part; falls really nicely on the hips, eh? Although I think I'd wear this sans tights, partly because of the weather and partly because I think this dress looks better with bare legs. :D

My Vintage Garden

What is this! I wanted to review that bra t-shirt but it was already sold out and not restockable. :( Sad, it's almost the same as the one Cheesie wore in Australia. :( Oh well, this b&w vintage cars t-shirt is pretty cool as well! They'd look totally rad with skinny jeans and a vest.

Perfectionist Shopaholic

I've always loved the smell of CK on men, particularly CK Be. I don't think this perfume should be any less spectacular. So if you like your leading man to smell good (I'm talking about good ol' daddy), get this for him for Father's Day, or any other perfume that's available in this shop. ;)

Favourite Boutique

How sailor-esque this dress is! It even has a marine logo printed above the chest. I like how cute the model looks with the blue beanie as well...imagine, wouldn't this look great with a pair of really flashy red heels?

Vivace Cabin

Ooh, this lacey skirt is so cute! I have a lace-trimmed skirt too; and I love mine. Very girly, but you can make it less girly if you want to! Behold, the powers of biker jackets and fishnet tights. 

PHAT Culture

I like the ruffles on this dress! And if you check out the closeups of the prints, the flowers are so simple yet gorgeous. Great for office wear, definitely. But this isn't just limited for the office, this goes well for a date too! Ah, the joys of fashion nowadays.

Continue Reading...

 

Seriously, what is this? Leggings with denim creases, zips and acid washes imprinted on it? Not only is it drab and tacky, it makes your legs and butt especially, look bigger, and fatter. These may be a cheaper alternative to regular jeans, but I'd rather pay the extra to look good. 

Continue Reading...

Exclusively Elegant

If you like them preppy shorts but can't or don't dare to wear too short shorts, then here's your saviour; the mid-length shorts! Not exactly three-quarters, but they fall just above the knee to not cut your legs off. Nice, isn't it? Very preppy looking too; I can just imagine wearing this and a very fitting white shirt with the sleeves rolled till the elbows, and three to four buttons unbuttoned. Tee hee. Do hurry, as this is only still available in size S!

Femme By JE

I don't know what's with the black sash there, but other than that, I think we can all quite agree that this tank top is uber awesome! Take your pick from either a lace-bibbed victorian style tank, or a very forest-fairy like flowery tank! Psst, my favourite the the Floral Jewels. This top looks pretty long, so I guess if you're petite, this can very well become a short dress. Other than that, pairing this with them glossy leggings look good too!

Princess Feverlicious

I know I'm like, super late in posting this up, and this is all gone, but she's taking restocks for this! So for the girly girl and the Juicy Couture fans, get your hands on this cute mini camera. Comes in baby pink; I think Xia Xue would love this very much. Hop on to Princess Feverlicious to check out the specs of this camera.

My Secret Garden

Now ladies, focus on the bag. The. Bag. Yes, that Union Jack flag bag. It's shiny, it's small, it has chain straps, and the straps are adjustable! Now wouldn't this be the perfect item to brighten up a drab outfit? Or perhaps, a deliberately drab outfit. Let's see, an all black combo with this bag? Awesome-ness.

Sassy Spree

My jaw literally dropped when I saw this blazer. I. So. Want it!! I mean, I already have one.  *twiddles thumbs* But! It doesn't really fit me. :D Actually, come to think of it, no blazers will ever fit me nicely because of my thin frame... :( They all hang loosely. See, being thin is no benefit sometimes. Le sigh. But you should totally get it if you don't have one. Fashion these days are so unpredictable, blazers are no longer limited to formal functions! Yay for that. This is a pre-order, so hurry before it closes!

My Vintage Garden

I have found yet another OL dress! I'm not sure if it's bat-winged sleeved, but it sure looks like it though. At first glance, it kind of looks like a sleeveless kimono, eh? Nonetheless, this is so plain it screams to be accessorized. Let me list down the possibilities; scarf, cincher, necklaces, bangles, lace tights...wait! Don't put all of them together, okay?!

Tipsie Topsie

 

Now, isn't this a cute floral sundress? Very bustier-like in the front (low cut too, wink wink wtf), but the back is the most appealing. Sexy with a hint of skin without being slutty. The best part about this dress is that it's not supershort, so you can still pass this off as pretty decent. I like it! One question though; would I need to wear them NuBras for this dress?

Simply Alluring

Forget the 280 deniers; glass tights are the second skin now. Like, literally. Legs are meant to be showed off, not covered up! I have to say though; this blue makes your skin looks alien-like. Really. But I guess they'll be pretty cool if you wear these with a supershort white skirt. Going for RM10 only! 

Not Quite Vintage

 

Find it crazy irritating when people wake you up when you just want to sleep in peace for as long as you want? Yeah, I should know. I turn into a monster when people disrupt my sleep. =/ Anyways, get rid of this problem by getting this eye mask. How so? They're both actually one mask; turn it one side for a, "YES, please wake me up" or turn it the other way for, "NO, don't wake me up or I'll f*cking kill you!". Ahem. You get my drift.

Moi Closette

Cute ickle ballerina flats! I don't think they're suitable enough to be worn as real ballerina slippers; but don't let it stop you from dressing up like that! I'm thinking white flowy dresses, white tights and these flats. 

Fashion Loft

See that paisley skirt? It can also be worn as a tube top/dress. Or a high-waisted skirt. Or a boho skirt. And that yellow top? It's free. Now have I given you enough reasons to like this combo? :D

Le Femme Fatale

I must say, I very much prefer this graffiti-ed monogrammed bag to the normal monogrammed bags! Much less 'mature', if you get what I mean. :D Flat zippy bag to put your (ringgit) notes inside.

aiShop

If you have lots of lingerie that's so hard to fold and so hard to stay in one place in your wardrobe, let me introduce to you...the lingerie sorter. Wtf. I just randomly came up with that. A bright, pretty green box which has lots of compartments inside, so you just need to roll up your lingerie and it stays there, neat. This creation is genius. 

Dr. Pizzicato

When you get sick of all the additional flourishes to dresses like ruffles, bows, frills, lace, tutu, heave a sigh of relief for a simple dress like this. Though not too plain to be considered boring, this is just nice and simple on its own. I like the model's hairband though. :D

The Shoplifters

 

Other than a full suit, I think guys look great in a fitting graphic tshirt and a pair of well cut jeans. Graphic tees these days are just so creative! One of my guy friends and a lecturer(!) has this uber cool tshirt of a silhoutte of a guy shooting his head, and the blood transform into butterflies. :D Morbid, but cool. This one depicts the everyday life of a student. Books, alarm clock, laptop, and what's that random bunny??

Dovey Lovey

Cannot believe that this is still available! Am I the only one who thinks this is gorgeous? Cause it definitely is. Do hurry as this isn't restockable. :)

PHAT Culture

They only have this colour left! I've seen quite a few of the chiffon overlined dresses lately, beginning with the colour plaids one! Then there were the polka dots, and quite predictably, the stripes. What about argyles next? :O

47 YKJ

A supershort mini halter dress with skull prints! I like. Has attitude. :D

Missy Hot

And finally, something for the office. Chiffon with loose ruffles on the neckline. This is a new shop, by the way!

Continue Reading...

Faceless Grandma

This. Is so creepy. But yet so cool. Makes you wonder how she actually structured that??

Bimbs Wardrobe

Yay for shorts in this scorching weather. I saw an awesome pair of plaid shorts in Padini Authentics, but it's so expensive it's illegal. This one makes a good substitute! Cuffed at the bottom, light coloured gingham, it's cool. :D

Apple Cabin

 

Ah, the basic black spaghetti with a twist. Great when you want to just show off your blazer/jacket/cardigan, and great on its own. This one has a crocheted racerback! The beauty of this is that you can wear it with anything at all. Especially if you have an extravagant bottom wear, this will fit just right in. 

Miirage

Though I'm not sure how often does one get to wear cocktail dresses, I don't think it can be often (unless you're a socialite!). Nonetheless, every girl must have a cocktail dress in her wardrobe. A plain and simple one always wins against the extravagant one, as you can accessorize limitlessly! Take this one. Dress it up with a colourful cincher, and a short necklace or choker. Love tights? Wear it! Though for a more formal look, I'd skip on the gaudy coloured and patterned ones and opt for fishnets or black lacy tights. 

Motte

I may not like wearing heels a lot, but I do love my espadrilles! They're the easiest to walk in, and they don't compromise on the height. I especially like the casual feel that they give. Looks best with sundresses! This baby is a mixture of denim and faux leather; absolut perfection. No need to fuss with the clasp as it's a hook on. I also like how the strap ends below the ankle, thus not cutting your leg off and making it look short. x)

Clothes For Fun

Oh. My God. When I saw this, I hyperventilated. It is so gorgeous!! I so wanna get it, but I feel guilty for spending so much...*meek* Don't you just love the empire waistline and the crocheted back? It's everything that makes this top special. Best thing is that it'll be just perfect for the office, as well as casual wear! Don't mind me, I'll be ranting a lot about office wear from now on. It's the internship. T_T

Sexy Sweet Life

I have a good friend who constantly buys cardigans in all shapes, sizes and colours, just because she daren't wear sleeveless clothes on their own. If you're like that, then it's more than a perfect excuse to get even more cardigans in different shapes, sizes and colours! The best type of cardigans are the plain designed ones. You wanna cover up without covering all of your outfit, right? Choose from a range of colours that they have! 

Match In Style Accessories

Pretty Korean style accessories are what you'll find here. Take this four-leaf clover bangle for example! Totally demure, and just the perfect item to dress up your cute cocktail dress.

Match In Style

Here I am with my cardigans again. This one is pre-order though, and order's closing end of this May! I quite like the pink, it's so girly. Take a tip from this model and wear it with a tshirt and denim skirt!

VeJae

The perfect top for the lazy days. Just slip on this comfy and airy top and a pair of denim shorts or jeans, and your favourite pair of flats. Lounge around in your local Starbucks and check out Shopping Critique with the wifi! Tee hee.

Still Sisters

Sometimes, we just need an uber vintage bag to dress up a modern outfit. My favourite combination? A pair of your most well-fitting jeans, a baby tee, and this vintage sling bag. Check out the pointy flap and the tan trimmings. Absolutely cool. 

Mezzanine

Not a great fan of them super high heels, but I definitely appreciate a beautiful pair of heels. These shiny snakeskin (faux, of course!) peep toed pumps are definitely a heavenly creation. This will look so good with a plain designed dress that's just screaming to be accessorized. If you want to be a little more subtle, wear them with jeans and show off those long legs (thanks to four point freaking two five inches!!). If you wear these to the clubs, your feet will be getting more attention than your upper body thanks to the shine. xD

Hazel Mazel

You absolutely have to check out the various ways they have of wearing this polka dotted thing! I don't even know what to call it, because you can wear it as a top, a dress, a skirt...and what differentiates this smocked tube from other smocked tubes is that you can tie it at the back for some sexy show of skin (if you're wearing it just as a dress, that is). 

The Aura

I love reading books. :D Any kind of books, really, so long as it's not non-fiction. I have tonnes of bookmarks, but I definitely don't have a metal one like this! This would adorn my book just nicely, seeing as it's so shiny and pretty. Such a cute chair there. Speaking of books, I really need to get some more...

Lovely Sunday

Simple intertwined tube dress but with gradient tones on it! They call it the shimmer dress. How appropriate! I've always liked the simplicity of these intertwined tube dresses, and there are just so many designs! Plain ones, paint splattered ones, shimmery gradient ones...ooh! The choices are limitless. As for this one, it's ready stock! So hurry and get your hands on it. 

Suay Mak Mak

Like this combination? Lucky you, cause they're both for sale! I especially like the tank top for its flower and leaves design. They kind of look embossed, don't you think? I'm having an addiction to shorts lately too...must be the hot weather. Oh, how I hope that I'll be able to wear formal shorts during my internship! 

Continue Reading...

87

Mezzanine

Yay for flats. I like flats. They're so much more comfy than wearing heels, but that's just my excuse for being a complete wuss. :D 

Jovy's Wardrobe

What I like about this cocktail dress is its simplicity and that random bow at the waist! Obviously you cannot dress this up with a cincher anymore, but there's room for scarves, necklaces, tights, bangles...the works! Go creative. :D

Strapped Skin

The classic white shirt has so many variations you'd be thankful for it. Imagine if we were stuck with just one design. The uniformity of it all will kill me. This one has pleats at the bib Victorian style. Check out the silver pearl-like buttons too. My favourite feature? You can fold the sleeves and button it up so that it becomes a three-quarter sleeved blouse. *big wet eyes* 

Compras Reina

Despite the sweltering heat, we also need something to warm us up in the AC, especially if we'll be stuck there all day. Hello, over-airconditioned lecture halls and offices? It just makes extra sense to keep a bomber jacket on and looking stylish while keeping warm. This'll look extra cool on an uber girly flowery sundress. :D

Le Chic

Bondage inspired heels with zips. Not to mention they're totally a replica of Jimmy Choo's. Standing at 4.5 inches, they're insanely high I daren't even look at it. Definitely not for the faint hearted and those who are afraid of heights. Tee hee. Best not to colour your toenails with a dark colour though; these heels are fierce and scary enough!

My Sassy Tank

I've always avoided lace undies and thongs like the plague, because I hate how itchy lace can get (especially in the hot weather!) and don't let me get started on butt-flossing. -_- Well well, lucky we have assurance from MST that these undies are totally non-itchy. :D Not to mention there won't be any major wedgie. Nothing is less sexy than wearing sexy undies and constantly tugging at it to be relieved of a butt-floss. And they have it in white. *big wet eyes* White is the epitome of innocence. HAHA how ironic. Innocence in lacy lingerie, indeed.

Tic Tac Toe

Okay, this is just so sexy. Bustier top with a flared skirt! If you find it a little too sexy for you, you can always layer, layer, layer! Layer with a top underneath. Or layer with a cardigan over it. Whatever works for you. I also just love those gladiators the model's wearing. *envious*

L'Coquette Boutique

Plaid shorts! Aah! So totally preppy. I would so pair these with a white tank top, layer my neck with long necklaces and wear sneakers. I'm a sneakers girl. So sue me. :D

Angels Spree

As much as I loved Carrie Bradshaw's heels when I saw SATC the movie (how many pairs of those does she have??) I am absolutely terrified at the thought of walking in them. I still teeter in four inches, how humiliating. If only these came in two inches *meek*. Anyways, if you're most comfortable in four inches and don't have these, WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?? Go get one already!

Fra-la-la

Doesn't this just screams hippy at you? I fell head over heels in love with the crazy big colourful sunflower here. Off-shoulder oversized shirts are just so hippy. I'd pair this with a pair of distressed denim shorts here and high tops canvas sneakers! Bring in the braided hairband if you can. ;)

What's Your Flavour?

Enter the realm of the non-boring monochromatic office wear! No more wearing white shirts and black pants or boring black pencil skirts that make you look like Parkson's salespeople or any other salesperson at that. Now we have high-waisted pinafores and gorgeous button-up shirts that'll make you look anything but like a salesperson! It'll look totally awesome with lace black tights and white slingbacks.

Bows Lover

If you thought plaids and gingham were very last December, you thought wrong. They were all the rage, and still are all the rage, it seems. How else can you explain all these gingham and plaids still coming out?? Luckily they're appearing on my favourite item of clothing; the mini skirt. You absolutely cannot hate them. Especially since this one has an elastic band , as well as functional zipper pockets! I love pockets. Give me anything with pockets and I'll love them. Okay, that's not entirely true. :P

Ring Apartment

Rings these days are becoming so freaking cool!! Round, silver, plain rings are so aeons ago; bring in the kitsch, random shaped rings, like this plug one! Very fragile, but too cool. I'd wanna layer my fingers with rings like these, ala Karl Lagerfeld. Except that my rings aren't vintage. They're cool. :D

Round Bean

People will always love charmbracelets, because you can choose whatever charms you like, and they're always so cute! I like the vintage feel of this; tarnished, brass. Makes you wanna slip on a vintage white cotton dress with this bracelet and prance around in the woods.

Circle Closet

They have a whole range of colours for this mini skirt, but I think this grey one would make a very cool schoolgirl outfit. Yes, I miss my high school years. *sighs reminiscently* Unfortunately though, high school didn't have short grey skirts. I wish. So I'll make believe and pair this grey skirt with a button-up white shirt, knee high black socks and black pumps! 

 

Little McQueen

Okay, how often do you see a maxi dress that has batik-like prints, and a bat-winged toga? This dress spells ethereal and goddes and oh I don't know, a perfect stroll by the beach? Even though this is reserved, you can still pray for backouts! Tee hee. There's a whole other range of maxi dresses available too. Hop on over to their site. ;)

Twinkle Collection

Le sigh. I feel so hopeless lately. I never used to leave house without a pair of earrings on. Now I feel so lazy to dig out a pair of earrings that match my outfit. Is this a sign of growing old? Nooo...I am still young! I haven't even passed my teenhood. Nonetheless. Isn't this pair of earrings so twinkly and girly? It has stars, pearls, diamantes, and those dangly things! Very Korean style, especially when paired with an off-shoulder top and skinny jeans with heels.

Chic Vigilante

Don't be boring and wear only black or white to hit the clubs. Try some design and colour; like this retro piece with huge polka dots! Has a low neckline to show off that cleavage. If that's not your style, cover up with a tube underneath. Shimmy your night away with this dress. 

Moi Closette

Just like them dual-toned dresses that look like a top and skirt, these dual-toned crocheted dresses are all the rage now too. It kind of scares me that some don't have inner lining for the crocheted part, so I'll have to wear a really pretty bra. Ahem. But if they have lining, rejoice! I'd really want to get one of these, but I'm still on the lookout for The One. ;D

Little Maketto

 

You know what's creepy? The fact that they actually looked like real flowers at first glance. O_O But of course, upon closer inspection, they're made of fabric and lace. Uber cool corsages, and although it seems a little weird that prom's going on in the middle of the year (ACCA students :P), you need not limit this to prom at all. Go creative and jazz up those simple outfits, or maybe even attach a scrunchy (not the rubber kind, those spoil your hair!) to the flower and transform it into a flower scrunchy. 

Sleek Sisters

Y'know, fashion is a strange thing. We like to keep ourselves clothed in things that make going to the toilet such a troublesome thing! But nonetheless, it still won't stop us. We still love rompers like these, especially since it has pockets (love!), and a ruched chest area. Illusion of bigger boobs. *nods sagely*

My Dressing Closet

Fancy a flowery skirt? If short skirts aren't your thing, these mid-length ones should be your cup of tea. Since these are bursting with design, I'd tone down the top. A basic tee or spaghetti strapped top perhaps?

Pixel 101

Ah, Marge. My favourite character from The Simpsons, and I've always loved her funky blue hair! Pixel 101's specialty is pixel-based accessories. You can go to their site to see a wide range of them pixel pictures. They have a Bumblebee too, to commemorate the Transformers movie that is coming out soon! :D

Edit: I am pulling my hair out trying to fix my layout! Gahhhhh

Hello people. :D

I have officially finished my finals! Woohoo! Now, for the emergency.

No, nobody hacked my blog. It's just that I've transferred all the Reader Requests to a different blog. More systematic, and nobody will confuse this blog for an online boutique or whatsoever. 

Here's the new link: Shopping Critique's Reader Requests.

This blog will remain solely as a review blog now. I'll have more time to update now that I'm on my two-week break! Expect new layouts and good news for sellers: I will be opening advertisement slots soon!

Till then, I'll be busy. ;)

Daisy Deariesx

Sigh. Sometimes I just wish I had a flat ass and long skinny legs just so I'd look good in shorts like this one. Just cause, shorts like these look awesome on people with flat asses and long skinny legs. Dammit I feel like such a hypocrite; my tentative thesis is about the media being responsible for eating disorders. 

Fra-la-la

These days, dual toned dresses like these are out so much that I cannot tell the difference between a separate top and skirt and a dress anymore! It's so frustrating!! It reminds me so much about the time when kimonos were all the rage. Actually, that was only months ago. Aeons in the internet and fashion world. I didn't like the kimonos much. Thankfully these dual-toned dresses are so much better than the kimonos. I like them most because they can be worn to the office. Hello internship. *sceptical smile*

Garde-Robe

Can you believe I still don't have a bikini I want? I must be so impossibly nitpicky. I love bikinis like these, but I don't think my body is cut out for these types of bikinis. Nonetheless, it doesn't stop me from looking enviously at this American one and making me wish that I could carry this off. Ah well. Somebody else will be luckier. Last piece in that online boutique. Hurry!

Just Girl Shop

Wishing for a pair of straighter and firmer legs? Well apparently now you can sleep your way to them, while wearing these babies. A little pricey, but hey, if you're willing to spend that few hundred for some La Mer cream, this will just be peanuts. Good legs are hard to come by!

Hide&Chic

Is it a dress, or is it a top? The choice is yours. I think it looks so much better as a dress, because the material can make you look quite slouchy and mature if you wear it as a top. But anyway, it's all about preference, and mine is wearing this dress with some killer high heels and bangles! I'd advise you not to pair this with tights though; this scorching weather can make those hips itch like a bitch. 

Le Femme Fatale

Such pretty things these necklaces are! Though Mother's Day is over, they're still available for grabs. So even if you've gotten your mother something special, you can still get this for yourself. ;)

I am currently having my finals now, so updates will be very, very slow. My exams finish on the 11th of May, then I will be taking a two-day break. Updates will resume regularly after that. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Also, please don't send me multiple emails for the same request. I have gotten your email, and if I haven't post it up, it means I have not updated yet. Please be patient. If anyone sends me the same email more than three times, I will exclude your request in my future posts. I appreciate you not spamming my inbox. Thank you.

Hey people. Finals are next week, so updates will be real scarce from now on. So my apologies if I don't post your requests up a.s.a.p. Please be patient, I will post up every single request; none will be forgotten, except of course, those who give me stuff that you didn't buy online.

Some people may have missed the other post, but I mentioned that I will not be posting up stuff not bought online anymore. Okay that sounded quite confusing. Um, I will only post clothes, accessories and stuff that you bought online. Nothing else.

Seems like there's so many bazaars going on now! You guys are so lucky, being able to go shopping while I have to slog it out for my exams. :(

My exam finishes mid May. I so look forward to then! Toodles.

Just to announce that I'll be taking the weekend off to focus on completing my assignment. And by weekend, I mean Monday as well. Monday is a weekend for me, as I have no classes on that day! Hah, no Monday blues for me.

I know that I'll probably post up a few entries after this despite my so-called "hiatus". It's called procrastinating on assignments. But anyway, this is just to inform you that I won't be so quick on my updates for now. I know I haven't been quick with the updates lately as well, and it's because I've been busy as hell.

Being a university student is no piece of cake. :(

Au revoir, people!

Guess what's happening on the 25th and 26th of this month? Yet another A: Fair Weekend Bazaar at SoHo KL!




Yes, I know, that is like, weeks from now. But then, doesn't that give you more time to make a note in your organizer for that day, for shoppers? And as for sellers, more time for you to register. None of that last-minute nonsense no more.

So sellers, you know who and how to contact if you want your own booth at the most hip and trendy f&b place in KL.

As for shoppers, just go there to see and to be seen! I bet you guys will be having lots of fun shopping while I'm slaving my ass away with finals. Yes, 'tis the season for final exams, le sigh!

Oh, by the way, the team from A: Fair Weekend are teaming with Focus Point Vision Care Group - Sri Hartamas, to give out discount vouchers worth RM 100, to anyone who creates an entry about their upcoming A:fair Weekend BIGGEST Bazaar @ SOHO KL on the 25th and 26th April 2009.

I'm sure you can see that's what I'm trying to do right now. *cough*

But hey, you don't need to write a long entry like what I did! Lucky for you, the team from AFW are not picky. All you need to do is write a line or two and attach their poster whether it's on your website, blog, facebook, myspace or anywhere else and then send them an email at shades@afairweekend.com with the link of the entry.

Then, voila! The voucher is yours. Yeah, it's that easy. So what are you waiting for?! Get busy writing now.

Tictactoe RM50

I'm on a hunt for office wear that's not totally formal, but yet formal enough for the office. And this ruffled top here makes the cut. You don't have to worry about not being able to fit through that tiny collar, cause there's a zip all the way down the top! Now that's pretty cool.

You can either zip it all the way up to the collar, or zip it down a little to get a breather. Tee hee.

My Clothes Affair RM16

Plain tank tops are the bomb! They go with just about anything; skirts, pants, the works. The best thing about it being plain is that your bottoms can be full of details, and they work just well enough with it.

Good news is that they're going for RM16 each. Everywhere else I've seen sells them at RM20 the least, so this is quite a steal.

What's Your Flavour? RM39

You know, I never liked kimonos. I felt that they made you look fat, unproportionate, and well...fat. And I didn't like that whole flutter-sleeves thing. It would be so disgusting and slutty to be able to see your bra?

But surprisingly, I quite like this kimono dress. Maybe it's the cutting or the design, but it doesn't actually make the model look quite unproportionate. And despite all my negative statements about kimonos, I've always wanted to try on a plain one and see if I look nice in it. Hehehe I'm such a hypocrite!

La'Belle Closet RM20

I love tank tops. You can never go wrong with them, and just about everybody looks good in them. Unless of course, you spoil the look by wearing a wrong bra with it. Unless you have really pretty bra straps, please don't show them off when you wear racerbacks.

Plain tank tops are the bomb, but aptly designed tank tops are the nuclear (wtf I'm so lame)! This skull-and-bone design is just so cool, with a rocker chick kind of feel. You should see the combination they have with the skirt and studded belt. So fierce.

If you wear it with baggy pants and sneakers and studded cuffs, it'll be even more fierce. Rawr!

Dr. Pizzicato RM36

I was looking through some online boutiques during my lab class (shh!), and I came across this skirt. I was like, ohmygod! This is too good to be true. I first saw the Miss Selfridge picture and thought, nah, their version can't be that good. I was wrong. It is so nice. So pretty! That I had to show it to my friends. They couldn't agree more.

For one, the colour is so nice and bright. How often do you have skirts in this shade of happy? Hardly. Also, it's a little high-waisted. Just the perfect thing in trend right now. Finally...you can wear it as a formal wear! Absolutely perfect for me, as I have an internship going on the next semester. Formal wear is such a bitch, but with lovelies like this popping up, I think I'll be having a lot of fun dressing up for the office!

I can already think of a combination for this. A white tank top, plus multi-layered long necklaces, plus a cropped blazer, this skirt, and black heels. Perfect!

It seems like too long ago since I wrote a review. Kind of rusty, but here's a short one! And by short, I really mean short. Do note that there are lots of Reader Requests below this post! Especially the hot bikini that I'm selling off (ahem. Promoting my item. :x).

Candee-licious




Inside every girl is an artist waiting to come out. If you're rubbish in art, at least you can still dress the part. Hey, fashion is an art too! So how to you go artsy with this multi-layered skirt? Hm, it's quite simple actually. I would pair this with a normal white t shirt with minimal design, and low cut canvas sneakers and an anklet. And lots of bracelets! Not those charm bracelets, mind you.

Se.xx.y

Taking a short breather from all the PVC, now we have hobo bags with sequins on it! Imagine how noticeable you'll be when you walk in the bright sunlight. Plus, it's in black. We all love black. It goes with everything. And you can definitely rest assure that this bag can fit almost anything inside, like you laptop, added with your bottled water (make sure it's tightly sealed!), junk food, and...hmm, what else? Oh right, your lecture notes!




Oh My Clothes!




Ooh, that's quite a sexy zippered dress. Imagine, one pull and it all comes apart! 18sx fantasies aside, if you pair this with patterned tights and pumps, it'll be quite a vision for the office. Sorry, (well, not so) but boring office wear and I don't mix. I will absolutely die from the uniformity of it all. This zippered dress will breathe a breath of fresh air to mundane office wear! Do hurry though, this is the last piece.




Le Femme Fatale





I totally laughed when I saw the title for this necklace. It's true though, this little guy is swinging in the ayer, a-ayer, ayer~ You have to agree that this necklace is really cool though. Bet you haven't seen anything like this, eh? Best not to wear this with a low cut top though, the little guy might have a nose bleed...teehee.

Mezzanine

These bondage-type shoes have certainly come a long way. I remember them starting out as gladiators, then slowly evolving to those weaves, and the cagelike design, and oh, I don't know how to describe them anymore. I'll confess; I'm more of a flats kind of girl. I like how heels make my legs look longer, but I just cannot wear them everyday. Give me more flats! They look so awesome with short skirts and short pants that you won't be needing heels to make your legs look long. A word of advice though; stay away from flat sandals when you're wearing baggy cargo pants. They don't look good.




Lady Lips - Preorder




I know I probably have tonnes of t shirts already, but everytime I look into my wardrobe it seems like I don't have enough. I'm sure all girls can relate to what I'm saying. I'm always on the lookout for cool t shirts. Lame graphics just don't cut it out for me anymore. I want something different, yet cool. Then I came across this t shirt here! That comic 'bang' sign is just so cool. And the best thing about t shirts is that you can pair it with almost anything; jeans, shorts, skirts, bikini bottoms, you get my drift.




ESN Clothing



Who wants to take a guess as to who this is? Obviously I meant the character on the t shirt. Though this is not the first time I've seen a design of this sort, I think it's totally ingenious! Not to mention, I love my white t shirts even though I already have tonnes of them. They're just the right thing to wear with a good fitting pair of jeans, regardless of what style they (the jeans) are.

As of now, I won't be publishing requests with clothes not purchased online.

I realized that, ever since I allowed readers to do so, I have been flooded with emails wanting to sell clothes that you didn't purchase online. It made me think that a lot of you don't know how to appreciate the clothes that you buy. It is like the clothes you purchase have no value. You buy it on impulse, wear it once, then sell it off.

I know that there are many impulse purchases online too, but that is excusable, as you can't feel, or try it on. Chances of it not being suitable for you is very much higher than purchasing offline, where you can try it on and see if it suits you. Which makes me wonder, how on earth do you girls buy things in stores and then sell it off saying that it's not your size? Did you not try it on first?

So anyway, as I've mentioned, reader requests will now only cater to clothes bought online. I won't attend to emails wanting to sell off their offline purchases. Hope you girls understand.

To all the readers who have sent in reader's request,

Please notify me when you've sold off your items! It is very unprofessional to sell off something and then somebody wants it and it's no longer available. I know there are a few who have sold off their items but have yet to notify me, because I've received some complaints regarding this matter.

So I better see some emails coming in about sold items!

In the meantime, happy reading Shopping Critique. Reviews will be coming in really slow, my apologies for that. I haven't really had the time lately, as my assignments are pouring in torrents.

Hope you understand!

P.S. Another thing, some might think that this blog is owned by several people, but I can assure you that it's a one-woman show. Only me doing all the work! Otherwise you'll see reviews spewing out of here.

Love,
Miss Shopping Critique
