[I Love Dressing Up!] Tyra Midi Dress from Agneselle

It has been a long time since I bought from Agneselle. One main reason is the sizing issue. I find their sizing inconsistent. Sometimes, the size S is too tight for me , sometimes it’s a little loose. Another reason is their lack of new designs.

It’s only like last October that I decided to give a try. I bought the Tyra midi dress in mint from Agneselle. I didn’t have a lot of long dresses and when I saw how pretty the laced details on the shoulders are, I commented for it at only SGD27, a reasonable price for a midi dress.

The PTP and sizing fit very well on my. But the neckline seems a little too small for my head to tug in and out during wearing and taking off, even when the side zip is unzipped. LOL.

I just have to squeeze and “shrink” abit here and there. No idea what’s wrong with the cutting but I still try to wear it anyway.

There’s no need for me to add on a belt because the elastic band at the waistline looks okay to me on its own.

I tried pairing with a long vintage necklace, looks okay as well.

Then on another occasion, I put on my detachable crocheted necklace.

This detachable necklace is bought during my Taiwan trip, one of my gorgeous buys!

The embellished pearls add a little vintage and radiance look to my outfit.

Sometimes, outfit be can be this simple. Just need to play around with accessories. :)

[I Love Dressing Up!] Delia dress from Smooch! Simple yet elegant-looking!

Here’s a very short post! I blogged about my Delia dress from Smooch sometime ago over HERE. In that blogpost, the colour theme was like blue and black with a little bit of gold.

In this blogpost, colour theme is blue and white with silver!

Silver from a short pendant and white from my French manicure! Still look good right? :)

I seriously love this dress dress from Smooch. It accentuates my waistline despite the loose cut on me,  and the skirt flows very nicely as I walk.

Mad love!

[I Love Dressing Up!] My best buys from FabFad.LJ and Smooch!

Sharing with you my best buys from Fabfad! Sometime ago, I got my eyes on two pieces from FabFad.

  • Strappy Ts Back Top
  • Crepe Asymmetrical Skirt

I want to rave about how nice and prompt Rebecca, owner of FabFad, is! Initially my skirt was oos by time I commented. But within 2-3 days when the skirt was available again, Rebecca emailed me the good news and updated me with a revised invoice! I think that’s very nice of her to take note of my previous order!

First love here is the Crepe Asymmetrical Skirt.

I love the translucency of the outer layer!

I pair with with a tight-fitting top in denim blue.

I love how the skirt flows and flares as I walk when the wind blows. :)

I added a belt to hide away the elastic band of the skirt.

Second love from FabFad is this Strappy Ts Back Top.

It’s the back design which makes me buy. I think that’s rather unique and airy, feels comfy to wear on a hot day. Am wearing it with a pair of denim shorts, a little casual here.

It’s a little loose for me so I put on a tube top underneath.

The front looks a little plain and that’s when my detachable peter pan collar necklace from Smooch comes in!

I happen to find out another wear of wearing my detachable peter pan collar necklace!

Wearing it the other way round with the ribbons tied infront seems not too bad. Another best buy from Smooch! <3

Anyway the top is in electric blue, colours matching is very flexible here, black and white have got no issue with it.

Blue x White x Black = Never goes wrong.

I love blog shopping!

[I Love Dressing Up!] Blazer with Floral Tube Dress

I am not fan of blazers and haven’t been buying alot. But I am always on a lookout for a decent and yet affordable blazers.

Bought this simple blazer from Taiwan.

What I like about this blazer is, the crochet details at the sleeves!

I thought that’s something which I have yet to see in SG! Plus the material is iron-free, very much worth to buy it back to SG.

After button up, the blazer gives me a nice slimming effect on my body!

In this outfit, I am wearing a floral tube dress underneath. To avoid looking dull with the dark colours around my neckline, I put on a rose gold necklace from MLB.

I am loving my personalized necklace to bits. The rose gold seems perfect with almost all the ouftits!

 

[I Love Dressing Up!] Boots on a rainy day

At times, I really love the rainy days. That’s the only time where I can wear my boots! Boots in Taiwan are really cheap, S$20 can already get you one decent pair!

I did! I bought one pair of boots home from Taiwan trip! If not for the luggage weight, I would have bought a few more pairs!

Stockings at Taiwan are also cheap! Only a few bucks for designed ones! I bought many pairs home! Hehe!

For accessories, I picked a peter pan detachable collar necklace ordered from Taobao.

It has got some gold details which I thought can help to liven up the black outfit. Close up details in this blogpost.

Here’s my outfit for a rainy day, on my way to work!

It so happens that my dress, stockings and boots are all bought from Taiwan. The blazer which I’m holding is also from Taiwan. (Featured in this blogpost)

I uploaded this OFTD to my FB and instagram, it has received quite a few compliments. ^.^

[I Love Dressing Up!] Green x Black

When comes to apparel, I don’t see the need to buy atas brands. It’s not like as if branded outfits will make you look like a star??

For a shopaholic like me who tends to feed the wardrobe and changes into numerous outfits everyday, I have to spend as little as possible on clothes that I know I won’t be keeping them for long. Furthermore, I won’t feel so painful when comes to throwing the unworn clothes away.

Bugis Street is one of my favourite shopping paradise in SG. I am mostly attracted to their $10, $12, $15 and $20 buys. Anything more than $20, I will save my money.

Cheaper item doesn’t mean the quality if going to be very lousy. My tip is to buy those made with non-cotton material.

Check out this 10-dollar green blouse which I bought few months ago at Bugis Street. I must say the material is fab and it’s iron-free.

Initially I wanted to wear it as a dress, but the bottom part alittle too flare and tends to fly up when wind blows. In the end I pair it with leggings, 3/4 pants or shorted underneath.

And because the blouse kind of flare and loose, I add on a belt.

In this case I prefer a black belt with some silver/gold plating so as not to make the outfit looking dull.

 

Anyway, Bugis Street has become more interesting since few months ago. Level 3 has opened up with more shops and is selling affordable trendy items, just like level 2.

The only disappointment I have is that, most $10 items have hiked up to $12 and $15.  ):

[I Love Dressing Up!] Smooch’s Issey Pleated Mini Dress in French Rose

French Rose is the colour name for this Issey Pleated  mini dress from Smooch! Very gorgeous colours, suitable for any occasions!

Very easily pair up with a black blazer to give a formal look at work.

This pleated dress doesn’t give my body a slimming effect but I love how flowy it is!

The curls at the hem gives the dress an elegant kind of look, and I love how fab the material is. Yes, it’s iron-free.

The love here is the “rattan-basket” neckline! Pretty and uniquely designed without creating any discomfort during wearing!

Another good buy from Smooch.  (:

Accessory I pair with is a “Taken” necklace from Diva.

[I Love Dressing Up!] Outfit of the Day with my new Quilted Sling!

As usual, I am still actively doing online shopping, just that I have narrowed down the long list of blogshops to a shorter list. :)

My top favourite is Smooch. I truely enjoyed my blogshopping with them, mainly because of the easy payment. I don’t use Ibanking and Paypal option at Smooch really gives me alot of convenience.

One of my favourite dresses from Smooch is Delia Tiered dress. I bought the one in cyan, which sorts of add some brightness to my wardrobe.

My guy and mum have almost thought it’s a 2-piece dress.  Well, this is what I like in the dress: It brings out a little different from what it’s supposed to be like!

Anyway, to make my outfit looks more cheery, I paired it with a carousel necklace bought during my TW trip last month. The carousel necklace was in gold plated chain with some blue which matched pretty well with my cyan dress.

To complete my outfit, I picked a sling bag which also has some little gold plated metals.

I didn’t think I looked over doing it, did I?

Black bag never goes wrong with any outfit! I totally dig my new black quilted bag from Danxuan.livejournal.

Quilted design is one of the designs which has yet to go out of trend for the past few years. Somehow it brings out a soft touch of elegance to bags. Oh yes, it comes in those soft faux leather material. :)

Going out without a bag? I cannot!

I have quite abit of small miscellaneous items to put into my bag whenever I go out! And these excludes my makeup pouch. It’s so not nice to keep carrying bulky fat bags.

But with my new quilted sling bag, I was able to dump all my necessary stuff inside it!

The bag looking BIG? Not really~!

It doesn’t have a wide base but its length and moderate height makes it very usable.

There are a total of 3 small compartments by the sides, one of them is zipped.

Dumping all my barang barang inside…

The sling bag also has a zip for closure, to avoid the items from falling out.

And despite so many of my barang barang, the bag can still be zipped without bulging here and there!

Quality of my quilted sling bag is extremely good. All stitches and sewing are neatly done with no thread fraying.

Another way of carrying the  bag is ….

I just have to push the straps into the bag, zip it up, and carry it like a clutch!

That’s how versatile the bag is!

My quilted sling bag is retailing at SGD25, comes in 4 colours.

More details on my quilted bag can be found at Danxuan.livejournal.

Other than pairing it with blue and a little gold, I have also tried pairing it with beige/pink, a casual outfit which I own recently. Pink blouse and crochet shorts are from Taipei while my sandals are bought from Hong Kong.

I didn’t think I look too weird, perhaps a little too casual. Then again, that day was a hot day, I just had to wear something light and comfy. So I didn’t really pay much attention in colour matching.

This time, my necklace was in rose gold, from MyLittleBow.

It’s not my first time dealing with MLB, fast and efficient are why I go back to them. :)

That’s all for this blogpost! It has been a.long time since I blog about my shopping buys and dressing up stuff. Hope to have time for more of these later on!

Collar Necklaces Addiction and Addition!

Following my first buy of collar necklace mentioned in this blogpost, I’m officially hooked to buying more!

My loot from Taobao arrived! This was the one I missed it at Smooch previously!

The beads look like they are glued to the collar cloth but they seem to me the workmanship is pretty good, so far, no beads has dropped off! *touchwood*

The clasp of the collar is well-secured. It doesn’t get loose and is clasped firmly through the day.

My 3rd piece collar necklace from a spree at Flair-closet.The waiting time though a few weeks, was really killing me, especially when I was so hooked to collar necklaces.

This piece is slightly thinner than previous ones.

I love the sequins with the white pearls attached along the perimeter of the collar necklace.

The only problem I have with this one is the clasp. It keeps getting loose, quite annoying. Gonna find my way to sew it closer, close the little gap to avoid it from loosen.

Looking classy anytime with it!

4th piece is here from Smooch!

What attracts to comment for this piece is the bling bling scattered on the collar necklace! They look too bling to be missed! Quality and workmanship are fab fab fab! Even though it’s a little ex, I don’t mind!

I actually wear it in two ways! I think it’s not so bad-looking to wear the ribbon sash on the front right?! I don’t know, I guess I just have to find suitable top to pair with “wearing style”.

I received a lot of glimpses when I wore it once! I bet it means my collar necklace is chio? *thick-skinned*

As of today, all in all I have only 4 pieces collar necklaces. 1 more is coming up soon! It’s from Smooch! I missed my chance getting it during the launch hence am joining their BO. Cannot wait to receive them anytime soon!

*anticipate*

YAY! Arrival of my very 1st Peter Pan Pearl Collar Necklace!

I got myself sunk with Peter Pan Collar Necklace when I first saw it at Smooch. But there was no more stock at Smooch. Nevertheless I bought the exact design from Taobao at a great deal price! Can’t wait to receive it!

Check out their cute bird!

But just before I receive my buy from Taobao, I received another Peter Pan Collar Necklace from MyLittleBow!

MAAAAAAAAAAAD LOVEEEEEEEEEEEE!

A closer shot:

It has got both small and big pearls on the collar flap. Instead of a clasp, it comes with ribbon sash which is to be tied at the back of the neck.

This Peter Pan Pearl Collar necklace from MyLittleBow (MLB) isn’t heavy on my neck at all! No worries about having to adjust it frequently. Once the ribbon is tied according to one’s comfort, it’s firm on the neck.

Call me thick-skinned, I don’t care! I just find the necklace looking so pretty on me! *PERFECT*

To me, it’s a must to have at least 2 such necklaces, in white and black, so as to match with more apparels colours. The one I ordered from taobao is in Black, looking forward to receive it!! *egg-cited*

Service at MLB is efficient and replies are prompt.

Even when you seek enquiry of their items which are sold out, they will keep you in mind and initiate to inform if the exact or similar items are available. *Sweetttttttt*

There are special on-going promotions at MLB!

How cool that is!

Too bad, this Peter Pan Pearl Collar necklace is out of stock at the moment, but do keep yourself in the loop, they may just restock it!

The price at MLB is really reasonable and the workmanship of my necklace is great!

But if you cannot wait and are keen to get such Peter Pan Collar necklace, please please please look around the www and google, there are definitely blogshops selling these items less than SGD20!

I strongly recommend Taobao or Gmarket. Just look around more before confirming your purchase ya!
