90



 

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??

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





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




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

Clothes For Fun



Okay, this is a little backdated. There is something else I wanted to review, but it's already been sold out. Sad, but this is what happens when you're not up to date by the second. Thankfully, this gorgeous green tube top with frills is still available! The perfect accompaniment to dark jeans and heels for a fuss free dinner date with the boyfriend.

Colour Me Pretty



Surprising how a little colour difference makes two items of the same design look so different. That's the case with this skirt; the brown's all sold out and being restocked, but the black's not sold out yet. Haha. But anyway, this brown plaids skirt has some vintage action going on there. Pair it with a white polo tee and with oxfords for a simple yet nice look.

Shopping Makes Me Feel Better



There's no therapy like retail therapy, and that's why shopping makes us all feel better! Don't you feel a certain high when you manage to get your hands on a particularly gorgeous item? Take this Guess satchel for example. Love the bright and bold floral prints! Plus there are so many compartments. Lovely for a girl like me who has plenty of little knick knacks to stuff in her bag.

1 Babe Shop



Talk about sexy. You can practically go braless in this supersexy halter top because it's padded. With the collars, you can go for the hot secretary look. Okay, I should stop. I'm going to be promoting things that will oppose traditional family values. Anyway, to make this less naughty, pair it with a long skirt.

Sassy Spree



Say hello to Sassy Chic's pre-order site! This short sleeved jacket probably won't serve its purpose for warming you up, but this will be good for covering up skimpy tops. A little sheer, you can show off your skimpy top without being too revealing. Speaking of revealing, I got stopped by the uni's security guard today for wearing a mini skirt. -_-

Ancient Orchids



I've always found the off shoulder outfits to be more sexy than low cut outfits. Somehow, showing off the shoulder is more tantalising and less slutty than showing off your cleavage, don't you think? Here we have a 3/4 sleeved mini dress with a blinged strap to boot! If you find it a little too short for your liking, you could always wear tights with it. Try white! Not leggings though. You want an elegant look, not an aunty look.

Phasionology



I just bought a dress with a similar print from this fabulous shop called Kitschen for the CNY! So it's quite natural that I find this to my liking as well. I've been seeing this flower design like, everywhere. You could wear a tube inside if you're not one to show off cleavage. Since this is a white dress with minimal colours, experiment with different tube colours other than black!

Bows Lover



This babydoll tank is so basic that I love it. Empire waistlines are always handy to cover up that slightly bulging tummy after a heavy meal (though doctors have warned us to not eat a too heavy meal). Plus it's so basic and plain, a nonbasic bottom is called for! This top might go well with that gingham skinnies you've been dying to wear. If you're petite enough, this top might even pass off as a supershort dress, so you can wear coloured or patterned tights.

Sara.My



Ballet flats for the days when your legs feel like they can't take heels no more. It comes in dusty pink too, a colour I can't believe anyone would hate. Well, at least, I think it's dusty pink. Pair with a sundress! Basically this can go with any outfit, except for maxi dresses.

Muakzz



I cannot believe why the owner wants to sell off this gorgeous tank top! I can just imagine this paired with dark wash jeans and gladiator heels. Fierce.

Oriental Sparkles



If chunky stainless steel rings aren't to your taste, will a clay flower ring suit you more? This wire twisted ring is definitely one of a kind. If there's a pink flower, it'll be even more awesome! Then we can make a necklace, a barette, and make it an entire set. Ha.

Midnight Glam



If you haven't gotten your plaid skinnies yet, Midnight Glam is still selling 'em. I prefer this darker shade of plaids, cause they look more preppy imo. Pair it with the babydoll tank top I mentioned above!

JP Beads



This, my readers, is an awesome creation. Purse hooks! A rubber grip comes attached behind the cute flower design you see, and there are hooks that can be extended which you can't see in the picture. How does this work, you ask? Go see the site for a graphic explanation. Haha! I think I explained it a little wrongly before this edit.

Lush



This is yet another backdated item. This awesome tshirt comes in black too, but it's sold out. It's so monochromatic that it just screams for you to pair it with a pair of fiery red shorts, or a bright orange pinafore, or green skinnies...you get my drift.

Like Seriously



Seriously, where do they get their clothes?? They're all so awesome. My most favourite out of the chapter is this sheer long top with an awesome back. I would recommend wearing something underneath it though. This combination with shorts and a green tube underneath is quite fetching. Amazing how I like the cream colour more than the white one though. Perhaps it's because the cream one looks more vintage!

Super Gorgeous!
.


Super gorgeous this dress is! Dare you wear this not-so-plunging neckline halter dress? If you wear this out to dinners, heads will surely turn. To be a little more modest, wear a tube underneath, or a cropped cardigan over. Or maybe a biker jacket! It will be a shame to cover those floral designs on the neckline though. Pair this monochromatic dress with more brightly coloured shoes.

Le Femme Fatale
.


You've seen chintz chairs on necklaces. Now let them be seen on your ears! It's so cute; they even have ribbons on the earrings. If you have a chintz chair necklace already, you should totally get this to make it a set.
.


When I saw this sleeveless cardigan, I fell head over heels over head over heels (you get my drift) in love with it! How can anything so slouchy look so good?? The model has really pulled it off well. It has funky pockets which looked like it's been ironed on wrongly, and best of all, if you don't like it long, you can adjust it to make it shorter! But of course, I like it long, so that I can wear tights with no pants. ;D
.


We have couple rings, couple keychains, couple shirts...and now we have LV couple cellphone straps. Hey, I have an idea, why don't we have couple shoes next?? Haha. Anyway, this cellphone strap is real classy looking. I'm all for minimalism, and this cellphone strap has it. I would get this for the boyfriend, but he doesn't like cellphone decorations. Pfft.

Only Branded Replica



Messenger bags are cool. Especially androgynous ones like this. I'm not really a fan of designer goods, but damn this Gucci bag is cool. Imagine sidling into class with this, a graphic tee, jeans and canvas shoes, and aviators.

The Shoplifters



It's not fair. It really isn't fair. How come all the good stuff's either been reserved or sold?? I really liked the leather shorts. Aargh. But it's okay. At least this funky perforated belt isn't sold yet. It's actually a skinny belt, but the front part's all wide and rocker-ish.

Fashion Loft



Shorts with suspenders are t3h bomb. Because I said so. I mean, why not? They look pretty damn good if you wear them with a buttoned up shirt, and probably might qualify for the office if your office doesn't have a strict dress code. Nonetheless, wear a rainbow hued tank top underneath it and you'll look just as fab.

Se.xx.y



Sexy is indeed, one of the many words used to describe this gorgeous paisley dress. A few other adjectives would be gorgeous, as I've said, stunning, elegant...the list goes on. Anyway, I also like the bluish hues of this dress. Very oceanlike, so I think this will be very suitable if you wear it while having dinner in a place overlooking the beach!

Petite Four





I am not about to start a peace rally here, but even the littlest effort makes a difference. Show your support to end the war in Gaza by wearing this tshirt! Making a statement doesn't mean you need to be boring. Jazz this up by wearing a bright coloured bottom (fluorescent pink skinnies, anyone?) and high top sneakers.

Lings & Blings



You probably have tons of long necklaces and demure, silver ones with charms on them. It's time to add something more elegant and suited to the ballroom to your collection. This grapevine choker exudes elegance and looks best when paired with your elegant LBD.

She Loves Shopping!



We've had cinchers and woven belts, now give way to the loose belt! Okay that was just something I came up with, I don't really know the name of that belt. Hehe. This one looks a little exotic with the coconut shells and strings. Looks best when you wear it with a straight cut dress (a plain design one would be better). You can let it hang loose or make it as tight as a cincher, it all depends on how you tie it.

Velvet Ribbon




It's so sad to see so many pretty dresses and yet you don't have anywhere to wear them to. For me, anyway. I'm sure you ladies have lots of places to go, especially if you're in the city! This lovely crochet and oriental floral dress is very East meets West. Pair with mules if you're going for the demure look; gladiators to tone done the girlishness of this dress.

Glittery Glam




It's hard to find a plain, dual toned dress that I actually like, and this is the first! Let's see...I like how the length isn't too long. I like my dresses short. The neckline is a little too short though. But of course that can be solved by wearing a tube! I'd wear my espadrilles with this dress.

Beau Monde



If it's cheap preorder clothes you want, this is the place to go. Like, seriously. This long halter top can make someone happy by just looking at it. I can just imagine prancing in the sun with a straw hat, sipping orange juice. Or champagne.

Ixora



It's no wonder this cincher has been sold out. No worries though, cause it's restockable! The buckle has a really intricate design on it. A little bit of vintage, and a lot of chic value!

Oriental Sparkles



True to their name, this pair of earrings really look oriental. Pair them with an LBD or a casual outfit of a loose halter and jeans.

Dusty Lace



I dare you to wear this to your lectures! I don't know why, but the mish mash of fabric here reminds me of harajuku. Not that the overall effect is very harajuku-ish, but you get my drift! Pair this with low cut canvas sneakers and lots of bangles on your wrist! As well as barettes in your hair.

Soak Republic



An OD of freedom here, if you give this to someone for their 21st birthday. Or, it could be a subtle message. Which key fits the door to your future pathway? Be warned, for there are four doors and four keys; the key you choose determines the you in the future.
Okay, I'm getting all mystical. I should stop. Haha!

Phat Muffin


This blazer is vintage at its best. Two bright colours, and you haven't even seen the sleeves yet! Quick, go check it out. This will be perfect to brighten up a plain outfit. My suggestion will be to wear this over a white tank top and black pinstriped shorts!

Princess Feverlicious



When you have a bottom with plentiful designs, the best top to wear with that is a plain, design-free top. Collared tshirts add a preppy look, more so if you tie a super-high ponytail and wear black rimmed glasses.

Frills Shoppe







Let's stave off the supershort skirts for now, and focus on more decently-lengthed mini skirts. Skirts like this one are such a dear! Pair it with a bright coloured top to make it look less dull, or a white top for minimalistic options.


Frozen Petalz






Grey should never be acquainted with old! This one's more towards the formal side, so you can wear it for presentations as well as to the office. If you're going for a fancy dress party, you can wear this with a cream, long-sleeved high necked blouse, do your hair up in a chignon and wear a pair of horn-rimmed spectacles. What are you going as? The Typical Uptight Librarian.

A Cup of Sugar




More long tops to hide those hips. I like this one because it has the little wraparound motif going on, and plus, it has pockets! The only annoying little factor is that you will always need to wear an inner top, unless you plan on showing off your cleavage. Nevertheless, it looks casual with jeans, but will be sexy with patterned tights.

Threadmark



That is one gorgeous camera. I mean, look at the quality of the picture! Ahem. Back to topic. It might look like a plain blue dress, even with the rosettes. But it's okay, cause that's what cinchers are for. Also, you can fold in the sleeves and make it look pinafore-ish instead of slightly capped. Most of all, I really like the dark blue colour of this dress.

A Girl's Wardrobe



That is a halter, right? Sorry, I can't tell. Anyways, the straps are a tad different than your average halter, because it looks like skinny belt straps! Ha. How's that for a taste of dominatrix style. I'd recommend black PVC leggings and black leather boots for the complete look!

Round Bean



Guys (as in, literally), hint hint! Valentine's Day is coming in exactly three more weeks. It's time to start looking for the perfect Vday gift. Of course, this applies to girls too. For the guys, if your girlfriend is into purple and vintage, this necklace is your best bet. That purple polymer rose is so divine, and will look even better than the bouquet of roses you're going to give her.

Femme By J.E.



There I go again with skirts. Can't blame me, they're the best girly thing to wear, next to dresses. In fact, they're even better than dresses, because you can mix and match! This flowery skirt has a very exotic feel to it, kind of like the tacky Hawaiian style shirts tourists always wear, but more fashionable.

Dazzle



Hello, biker jackets! I'd have picked the black one, but that's too common. I chose an uncommon colour in biker jackets; green. Paired with that neon polka dotted skirt, this looks very retro! Kind of like the era where people went to "discos" (which we now call clubs. Lol) and danced the locomotive and the "a-go-go"? Is that what it's called? Nonetheless, I really salute that era. Lots of psydellic clothing and wacky fashion! Anyway, you can make this jacket more towards this current era, by wearing it over a white tank top and dark skinny jeans with oxfords. No boots; we don't want to overdo the biker chick look.

Iccy House



More puffy skirts! Now they also come in shades of elegance (read: brown). Team them with clear coloured tops to take off the dull brown look (there's a difference between elegant brown and dowdy brown). Of course, the colour must match. If you wanna wear clashing colours in a fun way, go ahead. Just don't take yourself too seriously.
