More on Corsets

I just wanted to feature this Corset from Nanette Lepore to show you how one can look like when I first told you about corsets.

They go great with

jeans [cropped, skinny/tapered, or bootleg]
peasant skirts [mid-calf, knee-length or floor length]
capris
gauchos
denim skirts
flared pants

Use flip-flops, ballerina shoes, strappy sandals, point-y mules or stilletos. I’d suggest boots, too, but […]

Catchphrase Threads™
Issue 4

CATCH of the Day:
“I See Dumb People.”
It’s a rip-off from the movie, Sixth Sense, which stars Bruce Willis and Haley Joel Osment. It was Osment who said, “I see dead people” in a whisper. It still gives me the chills. This is one movie I wouldn’t want to see again because it scared the […]

Layering, A Styling Suggestion

One of the things that most women would say whenever they face their wardrobe is, “I don’t have anything to wear!” Funny… we say that even when the closet is full of clothes! We can never have enough clothes now, can we? Tee hee.
Have you ever thought about layering? I’m sure most have done it […]

Blumarine Crocheted Silk Top

Saks considers this Blumarine top as one of the hottest blouses in the market today. I would, too!
Well–? What did I tell you about silk and satin tops? Ha! Tell me I’m good. Hehehe.
It stopped me on my tracks. T’was love at first sight. I’m currently counting every bit of coin I have in my […]

The Deal with Corsets

Did you know that Corsets have two classifications? I just acquired this knowledge quite recently. It basically is classified either as Overbust or Underbust.
Overbust, mainly refers to the fact that the design goes over the bust and, Underbust, under the bust.
And yea, it’s not used as just lingerie anymore. It is currently being […]

No to Tapered Jeans?

No? You cannot be serious.
I saw the ambush make-over thing at Oprah the other day. I think the show’s called, Look 10lbs Thinner, Instantly! There were two stylists who were doing the thing and they said something on the show that really struck me. Never wear Tapered Jeans. Yes. They told Oprah that those […]

I simply adore this look.

It’s true.
Can you see the Chiffon Top and the Bleached Jeans in the photo from Just Cavalli? Isn’t it adorable?
Pink isn’t my number one choice of color but it really works with this outfit — I really like it. I reckon I’m leaning towards the pink shade, old rose, color nowadays. The color’s […]

Clothes and Men, Finding Truce.

Not bad, huh? Not bad at all.
I like the idea that men like to put on something nice or even stylish. These men will make me think that they’re confident and fun! They will definitely catch my attention.
I remember watching the people in Rundle Mall, just hanging out or there on an errand, who […]
