A cool and refreshing look from Armani

Embroidered dot stripe jacket and buckled trousers from Armani Collezioni
Need I say more? Isn’t the photo enough explaination for the post title? Teehee. Sure, I know the model has this somber-looking “I’m a model” face, but still the outfit she’s wearing comes off as — fresh and clean. [I’m still trying to look for a […]

Armani Collezioni: Matelasse Check Jacket

I’ve been experimenting with a lot of pieces eversince I started my dayjob. I’m so used to the usual casual attires that I’ve become a little rusty on styling for work outfits. Sigh.
I decided to shop a bit online. Uh, fine. Window shopping was what I really did and I came across this uber-cute jacket […]

What to Wear: First Day of Work

“No Dress Code.”
That’s what my new boss said. Gah. “A bit boring for a fashionista, huh?” I had to laugh a little. Had he known the relief those words brought to this particular fashionista, he would have laughed at the ludicrous-ness! Hahaha.
Don’t get me wrong. I do love getting dressed for work and all. Uh, […]

Women in Men’s Clothing — Giving it a go this Season

I’m not asking you to turn a new leaf — I’m just talking about going for the look, the men’s look, this season. LOL.
It’s a rather challenging thing to do especially when you’re used to wearing gorgeous dresses, accessorising to the max and overly attached to your sexy silk tops. I totally understand. I really […]

Add A Little Romance In Your Work

Fashion-wise!
You weren’t really thinking I was suggesting that you involve yourself in a little affair in the office now, were you? Heehee. I wouldn’t do that if I were you. Ack. I think I should limit my thoughts and propaganda on dating and relationships to my other blog. Hahaha.
What I’m actually suggesting is that you […]

Piazza Artsy Work Wear

This look is refreshing. The colours are fantastic and so perfect for the fall season.
Piazza Sempione Mohair Sweater
The fabric makes all the difference. It’s not your typical knit sweater. It’s mohair. The rusty orange colour is fabulous.
Piazza Sempione Tunic
It’s long sleeved. And if you are to study how it was styled on the photo, […]

Go ETRO!

No, I did not drop the letter R or M, intentionally. Even if these two words can describe this design well. And yes, I’m seriously considering it! Go ETRO, I mean. Hehehe.
I love how it feels urban and vintage at the same time. It also makes me think of Fall. I love Fall. It’s probable […]

Now for some Oscar de la Renta fashion and a trend alert

Check your radars, my dear fashionistas. It’s time to buckle belt up!
If your a true-blue, you’ve heard of the fabulous Oscar. And I’m not talking about that thing which involves Hollywood and that quaint gold statue. Hellooo.
So, let’s put the two together —
Belt + Oscar = gorgeous outfit
Are we in agreement? Yay.

Oscar de la Renta […]

Outfit of the Week

I’ve been featuring a lot of casual outfits during the last few weeks so I thought it be great to do something a bit different but, of course, will still cater to your fashion tastebuds. This is for all you working women out there.
TOP: Marc Jacobs Wool Cashmere Turtleneck
I love that bit of detail, seemingly […]

Laundry by Shelli Segal Plaid Vest

Up your game as a working woman by jazzing up your typical dress shirt with a Vest.
It certainly made your top look powerful, eh? Just find a matching pair of trousers. slacks or pants if you prefer to be really mobile but it works with a skirt, too.
Not limiting the Vest to your work wardrobe, […]
