[FASHION] Your Little Black Dress feat. Shopbop

The "little black dress" or LBD, is a must-have fashion item in every woman's wardrobe. Known for their exceptional versatility, the best LBD can move you seamlessly from an office to a party, from day to night, and from casual to glamorous - all with the addition or removal of the right accessories. It can be dressed up or down to suit various occasions because we all know that black is the ultimate classic color and the easiest to work with. Karl Lagerfeld said it best:

However, despite the fact that women of all ages, shapes and sizes can rock it and look great in a LBD, we are overwhelmed by the variety of choices available. How to pull off a LBD? Which to choose? Where to buy? Here I have put together some tips on investing in a good LBD that can last for several fashion seasons or even years, definitely something you wouldn't want to miss, ladies!

LBD #1 Short and Chic

First thing first, look for something that emphasizes the 'little' in LBD. A short black dress - maybe strapless, maybe not - that is flirty and flattering.

Halston Heritage Strapless Structured Dress

AQ/AQ Maverick Mini Dress

LBD #2 Classic with a twist

If you already have your short-and-chic LBD sorted, consider investing in one structured, sophisticated, and polished black dress. This dress should feel more conservative and a style that consistently looks good on you, regardless of trends.

Versace Leather Strap Cocktail Dress

Diane von Furstenberg Long Sleeve V Neck Dress

LBD #3 Dramatic Shapes

Think lace, velvet, or even leather, and feel free to embrace trends and play with proportions, whether that's through interesting details, long sleeves, or unexpected embellishments. This type of LBD is best if you want to feel unique and stylish.

Free People Lou Lou Babydoll Party Dress

Moschino Heart Dress with Tie Neck Cape

LBD #4 Custom-Fit

Lastly, try showing a little skin. Open back or plunging V neckline to show off your sexiness. Prove that black is not a boring colour at all. Suitable for night outs when you want to impress your date. :)

Zimmermann Back Drape Dress

AQ/AQ Upper Mini Dress

ADD ON: LBD #5 Long Black Dress

LBD can sometimes be interpreted as Long Black Dress. If you are tall, this kind of LBD will definitely look good on you. Check out these few pieces which I personally fancy! :)

[FASHION REVIEW] Get Versatile with Te Chi Chi!

Often feet are the most forgotten part of the human body - in fact, it totally deserves a treat. Good shoes take you to good places, don't you agree? :) Therefore, investing on a good pair of shoes will never go wrong. Clothes may be seasonal, but a good pair of shoes can go a long way!

I was really happy to receive the pretty pink boxes at my doorstep a few weeks back - they are the Te Chi Chi shoes that I have anticipated for long! Check out these pretty babies!

Left: Brown Oxford Leather Shoes with Studs (Product Code: TE222-21 here)

Right: Black Stylenanda Inspired Bar Buckle Sandals (Product Code: TEX258-XC10 here)

A study found that the average woman has 20 pairs of shoes, but only wears five of them regularly! That's why we all love shoes that can wear with almost anything, one that can be worn in many different settings. Talk about versatility. Below, I created two different looks with each pair of shoes, two (or even more!) looks for the price of one! Isn't it a good deal? :) Let's see how we can pair them!

Brown Oxford Leather Shoes with Studs 

(Product Code: TE222-21 here)

1. The Office Lady Look

Oxford shoes are inspired by menswear, therefore they make a polished impression for office work. This pair of Oxfords with a subtle pointy toe look best on us women regardless of our body shapes. In most cases, it's the cut of the pants that will determine whether or not you've got a winning combination. So in this outfit, make sure to show off your ankles and that the pants are slim or tapered, because wide leg cuts make you look shorter. In that sense you will have a good balance and sense of proportion in your outfit. Moreover, you wouldn't like it if your pants cover up the pretty studs on the Oxfords!

2. Back To School

If you are daring and adventurous in trying out different kind of outfits, you may want to try pairing flat oxford shoes with skater skirts. The masculinity of the shoe can be balanced with the feminine touches of the skirt. Add some playfulness to the outfit with a pair of lace bow detail socks and bowler hat. And you will definitely be the most fabulous girl in your school!

Black Stylenanda Inspired Bar Buckle Sandals 

(Product Code: TEX258-XC10 here)

1. It's all about black and white - monochrome

They say opposite attracts, hence there is no better colour combination than black and white! Black and white monochrome look is the simplest yet most chic of looks. This pair of Black Stylenanda Inspired Bar Buckle Sandals from Te Chi Chi doubles the impact of monochrome and turns you into a fashionista instantly. Top off the look with the stylish black wide brim floppy hat. I totally love this minimalist outfit! How about you?

2. Be your own rock star - Street Punk

Sometimes we probably get tired of having to look all feminine and classy - we want an escape. Try this punk look with your ripped high-waisted jeans and a crop top with words that tell the world who you are and how you are not going to care of what others think of you - that's really the heart of being punk. Studded wristbands and bracelets give the edgy look, and lastly, the black sandals to complete the whole punk and hipster look.

So where to get these pretty & versatile shoes?

Te Chi Chi is a brand that brings you access to the hottest and latest trends from the land of Gangnam Style and Wonder Girls! A wide variety of Korean styled shoes and their shoes are imported directly from Korea! Hands up K-pop fans? :D Now you can create your cutest and most adorable look and be sure that you are one step closer to becoming like your stylish and trendy idols with this brand. Te Chi Chi also has just launched their own fashion brand called TOT-TOT which you can get them from their Queensbay Mall outlet!

Gentle reminder: Most of the cuttings of the shoes are small, so you might want to get one size larger. Best if you can purchase it from their shop itself to get the size that actually fits you. :)

There are six Te Chi Chi branch outlets nationwide which includes :

Queensbay Mall

Raja Uda, Butterworth

Bukit Mertajam

Taiping Sentral Mall

Gurney Plaza in Penang (New outlet - Coming in October)

Queensbay Mall Clothes Outlet

So once again, thank you for taking your time to read my blog. It has been a while since my last post but I love all of you who still visit my blog and tell me you miss me despite my lacking of updates. I really put in a lot of effort in each and every single post, including this one, because I truly believe that I have to go wholeheartedly into every post I do in order to touch my readers' hearts and to really understand and give what my readers expect from my words. I may not be the best blogger - I don't have thousands of followers, I don't have a long list of sponsors to back me up, I may not be able to express myself well enough, and I don't own a good camera for higher quality photos. But I wish that I am able to create an emotional connection with you, just by words. That's my ultimate goal of being a blogger. Okay this is getting more and more irrelevant, I better stop here haha. Till next time! :)

Love,

[FASHION] Tips On What To Wear To Prom (Element-themed) feat. Shopbop

There are very few times in your life when you get to wear a truly glamorous evening dress or a dashing tuxedo. Prom night it is, one of the night that you will remember for the rest of your life. Here comes the dress-related anxiety - I believe many of my friends have been cracking their heads looking for a dress for our coming prom night! Evening dresses come in all shades and styles, and the hunt for just the right one can be difficult. Besides, the dress has to match with the theme this year, which is The Four Elements - Fire, Water, Wind or Earth. Therefore, here you go, some tips on dressing up for an ''element-themed'' dinner!

Fire

Fire is more than just flames. It is the heat. The kinetic energy of the reaction. It burns, it shines and it flickers. To those who chose this theme, create the same effect with something that's red. Something that stands out in a room and is daring in design. This hot red Lela Rose off the shoulder gown that you can find at Shopbop is perfect for the lady who is fierce, passionate, and not afraid to stand out!

2. ZAC Zac Posen Loren Wallet on a Chain

3. Michael Kors Collection Doris Platform Strap Sandals

4. Oscar de la Renta Gold Tone Lace Earrings

5. Monserat De Lucca Rose Bracelet

Water

Water is fluid and sensual. Imagine that refreshing and purifying feel after a rain. Now you can look like the water goddess in this silver Joanna August gown, showing a peek of leg through an elegant side slit. The soft shimmer of imitation pearls on the clutch gives a romantic charm to the whole look.

2. Carvela Kurt Geiger Gosh Asymmetrical Sandals

3. Santi Imitation Pearl Clutch

4. Oscar de la Renta Wisteria Clip On Earrings

Air

Air, though invisible, is irreplaceable in sustaining life. This Marchesa Peony Dress conveys similar qualities as air: light, pure, and playful, making you look like an angel. Complement the look with a furry clutch from Nina Ricci and Monique Lhuillier Sylvie Headpiece, and you are good to go!

Earth

Earth is full of rocks and minerals which allow growth of vegetation and support life. The beautiful floral prints on the dress reflects our Mother Nature. The sleek leather Michael Kors Collection Lacy booties and the fringed leather clutch give an edgy look. You can go crazy with the accessories that you feel fulfill your element!

[FASHION] 5 Simple Ways To Be Fashionable feat. Shopbop!

''Don't judge a book by its cover'' is a great phrase, but we do actually judge appearance first before getting to know people. Being fashionable can be a struggle for some people. What to wear? Which colour of dress suits me? What accessories go with which style of clothing? The questions go on and on. Therefore, I came up with the idea to share with my readers some simple fashion tips to be fashionable, some must-have in every girl's wardrobe, featuring shopbop.com!

Shopbop is your daily destination for the fashion you love, and the style that you have yet to discover. Since its launch in 2000 as a modestly sized online boutique specializing in hard-to-find denim lines, Shopbop has grown to become one of the leading fashion retailers in the world. They offer a comprehensive collection of designer apparel and accessories to suit every style and occasion. Shopbop has even been featured in Vogue, Harper's Bazaar and Elle! 

You can read more about Shopbop here. Back to our topic of the day! You can easily be fashionable when you shop with Shopbop :) But how?

Step 1: Get basic apparels

By having all basic items in your closet such as a basic white tee, tank tops, a pair of jeans, you are good to go to match them effortlessly! Plain basics are never out of trend. And bear in mind that simplicity always means more. :)

Current/Elliott The Muscle Tee 

Step 2: Dresses

I am sure that for every woman, favourite fashion piece is a dress that can show off her feminine side and her curvy figure. In events that you have a date or you are invited to a party, and you don’t know what to wear, just grab a dress from your wardrobe and you won't go wrong! Wear what's more suitable for you and you will make the others feel as if you are a queen. But it is important to invest in one that's special like these few pieces I spotted at Shopbob :D

Herve Leger Liza Boat Neck Dress

Giambattista Valli Satin Flare Dress

Step 3: Wear a hat

Have you ever noticed how instantly stylish you will look when you put on a cap? It is also useful for girls who have bad hair day or hectic mornings where you just don't have enough time to style your hair!

Rag & Bone Wide Brim Fedora

adidas by Stella McCartney Running Beanie

Step 4: Get your high heels out!

Every woman needs a pair of high heels, yes! Even if you favour sneakers or flats more, even if you hate the pain after hours walking in heels. That's because wearing high heels give the look of long and sexy legs, it enhances almost any outfit! A woman wearing heels definitely draws attention. And which man doesn't love a woman in heels? ;)

Paul Andrew Fatales Sandals

Alexander Wang Linda Cross Strap Sandals

Step 5: Carry A Bag

Finally, complete your look with a nice tote bag/satchel bag/clutch. Admit it, women can't live without a bag. Because we always have tonnes of things to bring out. Phone, wallet, cosmetics, comb, sunscreen, shades............ and the list goes on.
