Shopaholix Bar



Woohoo! I like this dress! It makes me wanna don a huge black Jackie O sunglasses with some long black satin gloves, black pumps and a long cigarette holder. Of course, I don't smoke. But it's very Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast At Tiffany's.

Sherie Shopie



In this new century, most of us probably do not have virgin hair anymore, even more so if you're no longer in high school. So, no worries about that coloured hair blending in with this cute little scrunchie! Okay, so if you're still in school, at least this cute scrunchie is able to live up to the dress code!

Bundle.Of.Joy



Lots of Blair/Audreyesque dresses popping up nowadays? Not that I have any complaints! I love them a whole lot better than the kimonos. Anyway, how quirky is it that there are suddenly three little bows on the dress? Totally makes up for the prisoner-ish look of the dress. If you're horizontally challenged, I do not advise you to get this.

Adornment Alley



More earrings for the unconventional! Actually, some guys look extra hot with an eyebrow piercing. Hehe. Bet they'll look even cooler with a silver man on their eyebrows!!

TH Couture



Somehow, this dress brings Chinese New Year to mind. Must be the flowers. And if the flowers aren't enough to make you fawn, how about that superhuge bow???

Lala Bubbles Shoppie



Dresses are so in abundance these days. There are those which you can wear to college, those suitable for the office, and some for dinners. This one would be perfect for college. I especially love the ribbon on the side, and the overall monochrome effect of this dress.

The Kooky Thing



What's the one thing that can dress up your LBD and still make you look elegant? Patterned tights, of course! Considering the LBD alone is quite plain, why not dress it up more with patterned tights? It's not like there's much outfits to pair them with. I personally love the argyle ones. Don't mind me, I kind of have an argyle fetish.

Simply Pretty Things



Basics are one of my favourite things. Easy to pair with, and limitless accessories. Take this grey knit top for example. Plain, but you can wear it with any sort of bottoms you like. See that necklace? It's free! So you have even more necklaces to pair it with.

Sassy Stuffs



Yayaya, it's yet another oversized bag that you can bring to college or shopping. But we don't all have the same tastes, thus there are many different designs to choose from! I personally like this 'cause the inner lining is real cute.

Hey ladies! So sorry I did not update yesterday, as I was quite busy rushing with something. Thankfully, I'm already done! So here's a big fat post for y'all.

Bimbs Wardrobe



What does one do when one has a bad hair day? Why, one covers it up of course! With the many type of hats, you'd be spoilt for choices. If you wanna be a little funky, try this fedora. Very old British man meets androgynous chic, especially if you pair it up with a tshirt and a vest with some jeans.

Purple Peppermint



If fedoras aren't your cup of tea, why not try a trucker cap? Unlike ordinary caps, trucker caps have more ventilation, thanks to the mesh area. I like this rainbow-stripey one! The front might be a little plain, but the stripes say for it all.

Quadruple Queen



Hello, simple sundress for lectures! Perfect for a sunny day, and since it's flowy and all you don't need to feel all tight with pants. Best thing is that you can just slip on some ballet flats, grab your bag and you're good to go.

A Touch of Simplicity



Oooh! The Starbucks tee! I've been wanting to get myself one, but I can't seem to find the perfect tshirt. Yeah I know, it's just a tshirt, but there are perfect ones too! This brown one makes it look all vintagey, and the colour will most definitely suit a pair of jeans, no matter what colour. Except for black, maybe.

Shopping Princess



The reason why I posted a picture of the back of the dress is because that's the most appealing part! The front is nothing much to shout about, it's just a normal sleeveless front. But the good thing about these type of dresses are that people don't give you a second glance, until you turn your back on them. Then they'll regret. It's like people and relationships. What am I saying? Moving on.

Beau Monde



Cute beanie the model's wearing. But that's not the focal point of the clothes. The focal point is, the jacket! Yes, the jacket! Forget funky patterned hoodies, forget ladylike cardigans, let's go for something big, bulky and androgynous for once! Like this jacket with the many pockets and those cute gold (I think??) buttons! I totally love the entire combination of this outfit. A word of fashion. If you're going to wear a baggy top, opt for more body fitting bottoms. And vice versa. You don't want to end up looking haggard if you're too baggy all over, or slutty if you're too tight all over. Dresses are an exception.

Victory Fashion



Just because some days we don't wanna wear the racerback or halter and have to wear a different bra. I mean, we've got limits with out strapless/halter/crossback bra straps, don't we?? So we can still go sleeveless in this. Minus the uncomfortable crossing/halter bra straps.

Candy Colour



I quote the blogger: How low can you go?? For those of us female species blessed with bigger boobs, I say go bra less in this while clubbing! Don't forget the nipple concealer. And don't jump around too hard, you might have a wardrobe malfunction in it.

Dress to Kill



This bag reminds me of chocolate and vanilla ice cream wafers. No idea why. Both are equally yummy! And I think this bag is just nice for lectures. It looks big enough to fit your jacket, bottle of water and some notes, perchance?

Vibrant Swirls



Christmas is less than a month away, so get in the mood with this dress! Adorned with mistletoes...mmm. Great excuse for a little peck with that cute guy or cousin!

Vejae



No more boring office wear! Not with this pinafore! Looks cute if paired with a ruffled button up blouse. Add a no fuss tank watch and a sophisticated necklace with some colourful peep toes and you're good to go! Do bear in mind that flashing your bra isn't too appropriate for the office though. For clubs - anything goes!

The Cute Closet



Gold buttons are not exactly my cup of tea, 'cause they tend to look quite tacky especially when paired with colours such as navy blue. Luckily, this pink and gold combo looks quite good together! Make it a romper-ish halter dress and you're good to go. This will look especially cute and sporty in a pair of sneakers. If you're not one to feel comfortable baring your back, you can wear a tshirt underneath it.

Tic Tac Toe



I bow to all things bright, pink and cutesy, especially this dress! So very striking, yet without being too much. Turn heads in the office with this dress. Who said office wear had to be dull?

Aphrodite's Touch



Don't look down on this humble black tank top. Sure, it's just a tank top. But with the right look, one can look extremely sexy and stylish in it. It is the wardrobe essential. I'll just give you a combo. Take this, one pair of dark wash jeans in whatever style you like, a brown woven belt, a long necklace or some chunky bracelets (never both together). Choice of shoes? Your pick. As for me, I'd prefer sneakers. So casual yet sexy. I love the look.

Miss Shopaholic's Closet



Yeah yeah, I did say I wasn't going to review anymore kimonos, but this is an exception. A particular exception, 'cause the design is very oriental and beautiful. Love the peacock shimmery flowers. I still don't like batwing sleeves, but I have to say, I like the design.

Fashion Unleashed

.
I must admit, I'm a tshirt-jeans girl. Why not? It's comfy, and with the right combination, you look cool instead of sloppy. Some girls just can't master the look. Or rather, they can't find the right jeans that suit them. I don't blame 'em. I'm still on the lookout for the ultimate jeans too. Anyway, I remember playing with paperdolls when I was a kid. It was so cool cutting out different clothing and tacking them on the dolls. Don't cut this one out though.

Favourite Boutique



I love this jumpsuit! Totally has that androgynous feel to it. Though from the picture, it kind of looks khaki coloured, and that colour is a little hard to match if you wanna look serious. :( 'Cause, you know, khaki is usually associated with the outdoors, soldiers and whatnot. If only these were dark grey and pinstriped, they'd so totally fit for the office!

Milky Cottage



Cute dress. Basic, yet cute. The white band makes it have the sailor-ish feel, and that fedora actually matches the dress! Though I say with something so simple, a quirkier fedora is needed! Polka dots, maybe?

Autumn Closet



Having a dinner with the parents and relatives, so you can't dress too sexily? Look sexy without baring too much skin in this spaghetti strapped, knee length dress. Yeah, so what if it's knee length? Knee length skirts hide your flabby thighs and show off your slender calves!

Velvet Ribbon



This dress. Is amazing. You have to go and read her blog to see how many ways there are to wear this dress! Back-to-front, off shoulder, fluttered sleeves, tube, oh the list goes on! Best thing is: The jewels on the collar of the dress. Lovely. Btw, Velvet Ribbon owner, those gladiator heels are gorgeous! Where did you get them?

Miss Capsicum



If your eyes are immediately focused on the houndstooth cape, please tear your eyes away (no worries, that is for sale too) on the bag. Yes, the adorable square bag that's totally reminiscent of a paper bag, but no, it's a tote! It's solid too, and it's fantastic for making a statement, compared to the soft, no-form bags. Get this one for a change. You won't regret adding it into your collection.

Peach Love



Cute halter top, or a dress for the extreme petites. Love the faux double-breasted appeal, and the fact that you can wear it to the office and then to the club! Just pair it with some lace tights if the top/dress doesn't expose your crotch, or some dark wash skinnies if they do. Add a pair of bright coloured shoes and you're good to go.

Peep



I love scarves. After I saw a uni mate wearing one, adding pizzazz to her tshirt and jeans, I told myself, I totally need one. I have one. But it's no crime having another. Especially a woolly snowflake scarf like this one!

Dress To Kill



Ditch the pinstripes and add some bling to your vest. If you're so afraid of standing out, these work well with just your average tshirt and denim skirt with sneakers. I love it! So bright and shiny!

The Red Tomatoes



Cute platforms! They're so totally bright and striking, but that's what makes them so cute. Although I wouldn't dare to wear them out, why make that stop you?? Hm, I might consider wearing them if I'm feeling particularly down in the dumps. Nothing like some bright technicolour to brighten your mood.

So Into You



Ooh, yes. Another maxi with minimalistic flowers. Damn I hate those maxis with designs looking like they fit my high school's curtains.

Ten Lady Toes



Hand-painted shoes are the bomb! One of the best thing about custom made stuff like these is that you'll probably never see anyone else wearing the same shoes. That, is exactly what we girls covet for. Nothing spells catfight like two girls wearing the same outfit. Unless of course, you already planned so, which is totally uncool.

Aphrodite's Touch



Who doesn't like babydoll tube tops?? Especially one with a fancy lacy hem like this one. If you like, you can also wear it as a high waisted skirt, but of course you risk stretching the elastics on the smocks. No worries if your boobs are bigger than your abdomen. *snigger*

Clothes For Fun



I like bags. Especially bags with lots and lots of compartments, 'cause I totally hate having to dig around in my bag to look for something. Especially if that something is small. This bag has so many compartments you'd be stumped on where to put what. I'll help you. One compartment for vanity items, like you lipbalm, mirror, brush, etc. Another compartment for the sanitary pad. Another for the cellphone. Another for the tissue. Another for the mp3 player. You get my drift.

U Look So Hot Today!



Yes, this is definitely a hot vest. Black, strappy and all. If one had the courage to wear this without a top underneath, one would get all the attention in the clubs, trust me.

XOXO Kiss



Nothing like a simple sundress that you can just slip on with some espadrilles and a tote bag. Go out to the circus or the theme parks and look great the entire day.

Gleaming Petals



Instead of wearing those boring, one-colour pencil skirts for presentations or to the office, why not opt for this black and white one? It's knee-length, yet it's demure without being old-fashioned. Wear this with a light pink button up shirt and you'll look great! Don't go easy on the shoes though. Try something adventurous, like oxfords or something strappy. No pumps!

Quill Cards




Quilling is the art of wrapping a thin strip of paper around like, a needle or something. If you're good at it, you can create really nice shapes other than just a roll of paper. Take this handmade card for example! Check it out - even Santa's robe is quilled. So cool! The recipient of this card would be really pleased to get this in the mail! So what are you waiting for? Make someone have a Merry Christmas!

Mini Pose



Yay, more argyle goodies! You can now wear this one off shoulder as well. If the top is long enough to be a super mini dress, you can wear this with tights and ankle boots.

Peaches & Pixies



Cute dress! This is certainly something different, a heart shaped dress with some extra ruffles. Love that it's white satin too, and that cincher goes well! Though since this is a white dress, I'd suggest a more colourful cincher. Like, purple? Or red, or yellow, you know what I mean.

Ministry of Clothes



Basic cardigans are needed in every girl's wardrobe to keep warm. Also, seeing as cardigans aren't nearly as thick or bulky as hoodies and sweaters, it's also convenient to be placed inside bags, making it convenient to be brought out at times of need - like in the cinema. If you get a perfectly fitting cardigan like this one, you could wear this with totally nothing underneath it. Except for, well, a bra. The good thing is that it's not zip-up, so people won't "accidentally" pull it down and reveal your lace for the entire world to see.

Ur Sidelines



Enough with hobo bags. Let's have a square tote for once. Why not this purple and white one, which makes a totally great colour combination? Great for when you're going out to the mall with the parents.

Glam Avenue



Another one of their strappy/strapless dresses. I really like this dark turquoise colour! Unfortunately, so does other people, 'cause this colour is already gone. No worries though, they have it in blue and black as well. What I love about dresses like these is that it goes well on its own.

Cheap As Chips



Ooh, sexy secretary look. Love its high collared Victorian inspired top, and they managed to make it look not that uptight by making the upper part of the dress sheer. Pair it with some flowery tights like in the picture, simple ear studs and maybe some b&w oxfords.

Ruby Dutchess



More clubbing gear! Also comes in purple and blue, plus you can tie that halter any way you like, so that cleavage part can also be a keyhole!

TH Couture



Love the hem details on this trapeze racerback dress. Makes up for the plainness of this dress. No fear though, a fancy cincher will do the trick. That, or a long necklace. Add some chunky bracelets if you're not wearing the necklace, and some gladiator heels.

Eve's Closet



This picture is so happy looking. Makes me wanna put on that tiered racerback top and some satin shorts and prance around on the grass or something. If you see closely, the straps are like that of a belt!
*Update: It's already sold out SOBS.


Finally, something I have not seen before. Very biker chick meets office lady. The best part is, you can wear this as an overcoat, a dress, or a top! You can zip it up all the way to cover up, or zip it down a bit and make a collar. Or, if you wanna be sexy, you can zip it lower still and show some cleavage or a plunging neckline. If you wanna be a real biker chick in this, pair it with some fishnets and wear a spiked faux leather choker or bracelet. :P
