OOTD: Leopard Crawl
I have received some lovely packages, some from
ASOS and one from
Yours Clothing that I couldn't wait to show. Of course I told myself that I'll seek diversity in clothes soon (as in not to buy from ASOS all the time) but the free shipping internationally option is really good and their ASOS Curve range is really stepping up some notches to deliver chiffon options to the larger female population. We know chiffon is really unforgiving as it has no stretch and in the past, it would only be a case of envy because I have always had a partiality for the lighter and feminine fabric and it's near to impossible to find it in my size but it is no longer so. It would no doubt dismay those who hate that type of fabric.
And
New Look, if you are listening at all, your online shopping site sucks. Between my friend and I, we have tried close to 7 or 8 credit cards and the transactions dropped before it could be processed. We called the banks and they have already authorized our payment ... except you didn't receive it. I even called to your UK line for help out of my own pocket several times but to no avail. You are losing a lot of international customers this way!
Review on the ASOS Curve Exclusive Leopard Wrap Dress:When it arrived, I knew I would love it. The material is soft and silky to touch, a little slinky even. It is a wrap dress and is extremely flattering on my middle portion in which the tummy so often protrudes. Well perhaps the one reason for that is that the attention is being taken up by the deep v in front of the dress that shows a cleavage to its most glorious potential if you so desire. For those who seek modesty, hope is not lost because you can definitely opt to wear a bandeau with the dress and that should take no enjoyment away from the dress because it is that wonderful. I really love the free flowing skirt and the general shape of the dress. I have also decided to go against pairing black which I usually do and opted for a bright pink. I like how the colour combination brings a more fun feeling as compared to a solemn black and leopard combination. The dress fits me beautifully and I really have no complains except that I would love to have this dress over and over again in solid colours! It really is the perfect dress for work
(preferably without the cleavage), for a date
(definitely with some cleavage but not all), a wedding reception
(again with some cleavage only unless the bride is showing off a whole lot more than you and you are forced to retaliate else it might make you pale much in comparison) and to parties.
Bows for the ASOS Curve Exclusive Leopard Wrap Dress:
If you are wondering why there are
six bows, it's because I love it so I am rewarding it an extra special bow! The feather brooch can be worn 2 ways and so it can be used as a hair accessory as well. I do love something that has multiple uses!

OOTD: Pleated Fancy
Hello all you lovely people. It's been awhile and I haven't been as avid a blog reader and commenting on your posts as I should be but being sick twice in a row and in a short time span really sucks and saps the energy out of me trying to cope with work as well. Thank you for waiting for me and I should be getting myself back gradually to catch up with reading! Yes first time seeing me in the spectacles. I love them but they hurt me when I wear them from a prolonged period of time so I'm looking out for a nice new pair!
Review of the ASOS CURVE Pleat Contrast Skirt Dress:When I first saw it, I was pleased with the colour combination. Who knows orange and nude colour goes so well together and the biggest biggest plus point for me is the pleated skirt. I love a good pleated skirt and if the bottom half of that dress is sold on its own, I would have grabbed it in a tiffy and in multiple colours if they have it but still on a dress, it's not bad. ASOS, if you are hearing this, make me some pleated skirts in a range of colours please because that was absolutely fabulous! I am not big on the sleeveless but with such a pleasing colour scheme, I was going to give it a go and thought of multiple ways I could have covered my arms without cardigans being my only option. For those who are thinking bomber jackets, they were also in my head but Singapore is too hot for them. Then, I found my little polka dotted capelet I had all these years. It was chiffon, lightweight, flirty and fun plus I really like how I matched it and it added a nice touch of difference to the dress.
