Back from hiatus!

UPDATE
______________________________________________

Hello ladies!
Sorry for the super long delay :(
but this time round, we are back, carrying with us goodies that are hotter than ever!

Its not even November yet.. but come on! Its never too late to start planning for Christmas!
We will be launching a sale somewhere in Mid Nov. So better start topping up your piggy bank to full tank as the bags are so gorgeous that our own team can't resist keeping at least 2 each!
(that of course meant a lower paycheck.. but who cares! hello!!! ITS A BAG. they are never enough!)




FALL TREND REPORT
______________________________________________



Item of lust: FROSTED FELT QUINN from- KATE SPADE.

ahh.. Perfect for Christmas and all its pretty outerwear. Like I said, its never too early for Christmas-day-dreaming! haha. Well, not much of a practical trend in Singapore, but who cares? I will walk the streets with this bag.. even if its just matched against my "Singaporean" Styled tank top, slippers and shorts. hahaha!


For all you fashion-holics out there, have you not realised, just like me, that fashion is a cycle? American designer Marc Jacob infused military style into his 2010 Spring Collection, but hey, military styled jackets ARE making a comeback. This time in the most popular hue, OLIVE GREEN.



WHAT'S HOT:

1) WEDGE-BOOTS.



You think wedges are just for summer? Think again. One most important necessity in every girl's wardrobe: A pair of wedges for every occasion.

Let's face it. It isn't really cool to strut around all day in your 13cm stilettos, killing your feet and your back. And having to master the art of "heel-walking", avoiding drains, tiny holes in the ground etc.. is commendable, but sometimes, not practical.

So tell me about wedges. you can run a mile in them and still feel secure and strong. You can step past any drain without either using only your toes, taking an alternative route, or just taking one large, unfeminine stride over the precarious drain-of-hell.

This season is raging about thigh-high boots, but of course
(siao ah? who wears them in Singapore? Unless you think you sailormoon!) short boots are just as sassy. Stock up on them now!


2) LEATHER.



Expect to see lots of leather this season, it may not be an entire leather coat, but snippets of leather are bound to grace the wardrobe. Sleek, mysterious and masculine, it has the power a woman should possess to show who's boss.


3) THINK MILITARY, THINK KHAKI.

Spike up your androgynous-ity with smart military tailored fashion pieces. We were crazy about nude, and it proves its worth by still tugging on our heartstrings, this time with KHAKI.

Think safari theme, where it was hot once in Spring, this time its coming back to nestle for a warm cuddle during winter. Olive, Khaki, Brown and Black will be here to stay. And not forgetting, Purple. Oddly, yes.





4) DO THE V.

Deep V plunge line is way too hot to be true, or, way too cold to be worn. Layer your V cut blouse over sheer lingerie, or a silky khaki tank top if you are conservative and then protect yourself against the harsh elements (i guess we dont have snow, only rain & evil air-con in Singapore) with a stylish Military jacket. Tailored pants or cropped shorts, you choose. Do it the BALMAIN WAY, baby.



5) NO BETTER PLACE FOR LACE.


A few seasons back, you see people sporting lingerie out on Orchard road. That was my favorite trend, since I love lace so much. But now with the erratic rainy seasons over here in Singapore, it isn't smart to run around shivering in your skimpy bedwear.

Do it the peekaboo way, wear your lingerie OVER your clothes. Expose your
décolletage, and your pretty legs, of course, throw on a pair of Christina Lamboutin, or wedge boots from YSL.
(did you know the decolletage is the sexiest part of a female body?)


get your sexy lace stockings from topshop for only $15! quality assured.
