MNG Spring Sale 2016

Yes, you have read correctly.  MNG is saying goodbye to Spring with a special promotion.  I have been invited to the local bar to listen to a friend’s band next weekend.  My friend has just bought a new wolfgang electric guitar and will be playing on that day.  So, I was on the lookout for a new outfit and came across the MNG sale.  Made my heart skipped a few beats.  Am thinking of getting these few pieces below.

How To Wear A Statement Necklace With Collared Shirt

As a statement necklace lover, I like to wear my necklaces whenever I get the chance.  I have no problems with round neck tops but when it comes to collar tops, I am at a loss.  Should I wear the necklace over the collar or inside the collar?  I usually do not button up my collar so that explains why I cannot decide which way is better.  What do you think?

What about non-button up collar?  Any tips?

Fashion For Kids

Prom Dresses London

I was reading this article from Who What Wear about how soon would you dress your child in designer clothes.  I have been seeing photos online of children dressing up like the adults and with coiffed hair.  There are also a number of instagram stars with thousands of followers. Unless you are born with a silver spoon, I don’t think one can afford designer clothing all the time especially children who grow out of their clothes very quickly.  As for me, I like to buy brands like Zara, H&M and Mango for my kid.  I love their style and they are easy on the pockets too. What about you? Do you dress your kids in designer clothes?

Denim on Denim Trend

I used to find wearing denim with denim pretty boring and would not wear anything in denim from head to toe.  A denim dress or jumpsuit is different though.  What I mean is wearing a denim top with a denim pants or skirt or shorts.  I think pairing a lighter denim top with a darker denim pants is not too bad.  Denim on denim trend is back this season.  What do you think of the double denim trend?  Can you pull it off?

Kate Middleton’s Fashion

Recently the Duchess of Cambridge paid a visit to India with the Duke of Cambridge Prince William. The fashion world went into a frenzy after photos of the duchess emerged.   I must say that she has such a great fashion style. Besides clothes by Anna Sui, Alexander McQueen and Jenny Packham, the Duchess wore clothes by famous Indian designer as well.    I love her effortlessly chic style.  I was so impressed with her when she demonstrated her ukulele skill during a hospice visit last year that I went to check out the guitar center ukelele tuner.   She is inspirational.

Whimsical Sleeve Trend 2016

One of the latest trends this year that I simply adore.  The puffed up designs on the sleeves add a sophisticated but fun edge to things.  We will be seeing lots of ruffles, puffy sleeves and high-collar necklines this season.   Here are some of my favourite looks.   Have you got them in your wardrobe?

Pyjamas Style – Yay or Nay?

Have you been seeing women walking around in their pjs lately?  If you are like me and were wondering what’s going on,  well wonder no more.  The PJs look is in right now.  Not only would you look chic in the bedroom, you can even do so when you are out.  I still cannot embrace this style yet.  What about you?

Eyeliner Hack For Those With Single Eyelids

If you struggle to put on your eyeliner because you have single eyelids or mono eyelids, or your eyelids hide your eyeliner (story of my life), well, here is a hack that would help you to draw really fast.   Use gel or liquid eyeliner to draw a thick arch so that when you open your eyes, you will have perfect lines.   I have tried it and it works! Yay.

I like to use Missha eyeliner from Korea.  It is precised for drawing thick and thin lines and strong against water, seat and sebum.
