Hey Anna,
Although i have never actually sat down for a whole episode of Gossip Girl i still know that there has been a headband craze that started from the show, mainly due to the actress Blair Woldorf. There are many kinds of headbands that are available in the market; from stretchy elastic ones to headbands covered in rhinestones.
These are a few examples of headbands that I’ve came across. Maybe one might suit your liking?

You know , if the truth be known , I “hate” all you girls out there who confidently strut your stuff in some real cool jeans. I have just been dying to wear a real super duper top with sequins and the full works to a club and to ensure that this very versatile top is not OTT (over the top ) cos it can be kind of formal , I just need to match it with a perfect pair of jeans, to give it that I am so cool, so carefree I am all dressed up but so oh, very nonchalantly effect.
So what is perfect for me, well , I have chunky thighs (common knowledge by now, ehem) and okay , butt is Beyonce bootylicious like since it got better and I wanna get me a Jayzee like bop biip biiip bop. But you know, I just can’t get it right cos when it fits my butt, it gapes on top of waistline especially when I sit, revealing all my sundries and really who needs to know. Obviously low cuts are out , besides , this is just me okay, when you girls wear your low midriffs, make sure your midriff is somewhat flat and also , pls wear a real low g-string or thong. I am forever cursed because (hence no low cuts for me) when some years back, the early days of low cut jeans and thong, I had the misfortune of sitting behind this lovely couple , and well, when I glance down , I saw the heiny of the girl revealed including the red triangle patch of her thong which had ridden high…now that is enough to put any girl off her starbucks and uugghh, major shudder at such a fashion faux pas…Thus began the search for my perfect jeans and only after some major “fashion therapy” sessions:-)
I have decided that I can learn how find the perfect jeans like the perfect man and that I should stop avoiding jeans because of one bad incident. Looking for THE pair can be an academic process and the best way is to be honest about what or who you are (in this case your body shape and what type of jeans could potentially suit you best) . And you. I mean I, of course, gotta go out on trying dates and brave some early disappointments to find my , I mean your, ultimate match, I mean jeans that is, and to find the perfect fit! And if once you don’t succeed , you try and try again… but fear not to find the perfect jeans (really , really read the linked article), it ain’t so hard …just click on and read some more…
Generally heavy bottoms, look good with bootlegs and wide legged jeans, for a bit of tummy bulge go for a higher waistline , yeees even the high waisted seventies style… If you are skinny , well jeans are made for you; drainpipes , slim cuts almost anything goes except baggy jeans will give a drowning effect… If no butt, go for emphasized pockets, if big on lower half, always wear darker colors…. for big thighs the washout effect , where the dark colors at the side slims down the thighs a little and the white out gives a lift and go for darker shades and more contrast …
So , I’m off , I’m off to find my perfect errr.. jeans.

I was walking around Hartamas Shopping Center on a lazy friday afternoon and found a quint little shop located at a corner with some pretty awesome clothes. The shop is called Eve and according to the shop owner, Nicole, Eve designs her own clothes. Little did I know, Eve Yong has been around for quite some time now and has outlets all over Kuala Lumpur and Malaysia. Her 2008 Collections presents much geometrical designs and florals.
Dresses are pretty and affordable too. From RM100 onwards, you can get Maxi Dresses, Tube Dresses and much more. Besides her 2008 collection, the shop too sells other clothings like shoes, shorts and other accessories that would complete a whole look. They have sizes S, M and L. Clothes at Eve are really feminine but with a certain edge that will make you unique:) Eve has been known for being “the meastro of feminine fashion”.
Eve The name stands for ultra feminine design, yet with unmistakably modern approach. Initiated by Miss Eve Yong in the year 1983, Eve - a brand which understand every woman’s desire, came into being. After years of acquiring the exquisite art of dressmaking skills from a master Shanghainese tailor and later in Paris School of Fashion Design, Eve Yong is ready to set out and make her dream comes true. Unlike most designers, EVE understand that elegance is about refusal, yet without losing an ounce of creativity. The charms of the EVE’s talent lies on her knowledge of a woman’s body and “the cut” with carefully placed details. Eve collection suggest intelligence and grace, usually executed in modern flattering materials.

Tubes, florals, blocks, are what’s new at Eve

Hey Mel!
Muslim Fashion has hit the internet long ago!:) Many shops has been here for quite some time. One of the thing that we noticed is that they usually just wear a normal dress, but with an inner top(as they call it) and a hijab (Tudung, in Malay)
We found this awesome website, sort of like Who What Wear Daily, but it is for Muslim Women who wear hijabs. It’s called We Love Hijab( http://welovehijab.com/ ). Check that site out for more Muslim Fashion. Check out what’s hot, then search through our MOFSD page and find for dresses and blouses that will compliment an inner wear.
Just make sure you have inner wears in multiple colours. Then you can mix and match items to be worn with hijabs:) Inners are just plain long sleeved tees, that is thin enough to be layered, yet still look modest.

Inner from Sweet Design Wardrobe, RM23

Wear it with this cute guitar top, RM43 from Sweet Design Wardrobe

Or this Hola Tunic from Get Gorgeous, RM69.90

This is a Picasso Sleeveless Top from Get Gorgeous, RM43 worn with a blue inner

Levis Strauss have come up with an economic range of jeans but yet serves a very important function where comfort and practicality matters most. This new range named named Totally Slimming Jeans has added spandex around the thighs and rear to hold in more of the loose bits and has a hidden panel to hold in the tummy. It works like a girdle but is much more comfortable. The range came about when they interviewed a group of bored mums who were at a focus group meet waiting to pick up their pre-teenage daughters. The young mothers told the Signature design team their concerns and angst and voila! this summer , will see the launch of this affordable range at USD 29 could very likely be retailing at RM129, but I’m just guessing here.
We’ll just have to wait and see. This range comes in all the usual flattering cuts like bootleg and slim cut and not too low midriff as moms are constantly on the go, picking up kids and toys and shopping for groceries , they don’t want to feel too exposed and be concerned about VPL or VPW (visible panty waistbands) and at the same time , they would like to beat the post post baby and mommy blues and look good in some functional jeans.
I don’t know KM, sounds like I could possibly have found my perfect pair of jeans at last, mommy or not….:)lols
where can i get tanning lotion or cream?? everywhere in KL i see is whiting & i dun want my skin to fairer.. any blog sale any tanning stuffs?? plzzzz lemme know!!
Xandi
Hey Xandi,
There are different kinds of tanning aids that you can find on the market. It depends on which part of your body you wish to add colour to - the face or the body.
For giving your face a lil bronzed goddess look, you could get bronzing powders such as 10 and Dallas from beniFit Cosmetics.
10 (RM129)
dallas (RM 129)
Besides these, you could also find bronzing powders from The Body Shop and M.A.C. Cosmetics.
Sun Lustre Bronzer from The Body Shop
Solar Field Bronzing Powder from M.A.C Cosmetics
Other than face bronzers, there are also bronzing lotions that can be used to give you a healthy glow all over your body. BeneFit Cosmetics as well as The Body Shop carries products that cater to this purpose.
talk to the tan (RM 129)
jiffy tan (RM115)
Body & Leg Shine from The Body Shop
There are also products that can be used for both the face and body, such as the Sheer Sun Gel found at The Body Shop.

hi…does anyone know where can i get Channel Inspired Zebra Top? the one at behind the seam and urban lolita are not restockable…plz can someone help me? i really loved that dress..desperately wanna own em…plz help me..
=’(Haty

Hey Haty!:)
I was at the Square Room at Bangsar Telawi Streets. I saw one Zebra Top that is exactly what you mentioned in your question!:)
(Sorry, it was at Bangsar, not Hartamas! Sorry for the wrong info, Louanne was with me then and I got confused! I went to both square rooms in two days in a row!:) )
Hartamas Shopping Centre also has this square room where they have a whole loads of small stalls at one space. They just opened one square room at Bangsar Telawi Streets to add to the growing list of Bangsar Shops already! lols!
Or else, does any other e-shop sells Zebra Inspired Tops?
Owh owh, there’s a Japanese Food Fair happening there too!
So if you love japanese food, head over there for some awesome deal.
Snacking might have a bad rap but we just can’t resist doing it whether in between lectures, during lunch break or even just sitting at home. But even then, snacking might not be all bad.
It is much healthier to eat smaller meals more frequently throughout the day, lets say probably 5 small meals a day. By doing so, our bodies will have a steady stream of nutrients and energy throughout the day. Having small meals throughout the day also curbs ourselves from overindulging at the next meals and thus actually consuming fewer calories a day.
But then, we couldn’t just snack on anything. We have to choose wisely and keep these healthy snacks on hand to avoid being tempted by the lure of high calorie snacks.
Read on to find out what snack foods are good for the body.
Nutty Fun
Nuts and seeds are healthy and appetizing. consuming a handful of nuts and seeds can improve circulation and muscle tone. Besides that, many nuts and seeds are full of arginine, vitamin E, lignants ans omega-3 fatty acids which help prevent heart disease, infertility and high blood pressure.
There are so many nuts and seeds to choose from - almonds, pine nuts, walnuts, pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds, to name a few. Mix and match any combination or even add some to your salad for extra flavor and texture.
An Apple A Day Keeps The Doctor Away
This is not just a phrase that a mom might say to their child to make them eat apples. It has actually been proven by studies conducted by scientists. It seems that people who consumed more apples have healthier hearts and lung function.
Apples contain pectin that helps decreases cholesterol levels as well as prevent colon cancer.
Berry Power
Be it blueberries, cherries or strawberries, these little fellas are packed with bioflavonoids, anthocyanins, tannins and other phytochemicals.
The flavonoids act as antioxidants that reduce free radicle damage as well as help reduce inflammation (apparently it is more effective than an asprin) . Consuming these compounds also protacts you against cancer, arthiritis and heart diseases due to their ability to lower cholesterol.
Avocado: The Green Master
Although an avocado doesn’t look pretty on the outside it is packed with glutathione, which is known as the ‘master antioxidant’. This compound regulates the immune system keeping us protected from harmful diseases, protacts against cancer and assists in the detoxifying process.
Happy Apricots
Apparently apricots are one of the staple foods of the famous centenarians in the Himalayas. Research has discovered that apricots have the highest level as well as the widest variety of carteniods of any food. Cartenoids are antioxdants that help prevent heart disease by reducing ‘bad cholesterol’.
Well, these are a few suggestions that i have made. I hope you find interesting ways to incorporate these healthy snacks into your daily diet
Maybe you have suggestions of your own that you wish to share??
hi karen, i will have business dinner next week, can you or anyone help to find high waist skirt that i can match with blazer. I’m so stuck right now.
