Question: Size 3 Shoes

Apr 9, 2008 Author: karenmarie | Filed under: Boutique, Fashion, Question, Shopping

Shoes:)

Hello, i’m a huge fan of pumps and covered heels, but the problem is i am a size 3. >.<” Can anyone recommend me shop that sells size 3 pumps which is within a budget of RM 100?
-lil-

Hey girl:)

The only place i know that carries size 3 shoes is. . .PEDAL WORKS! They take pride in their ranges of shoes that they carry. From size 3-12:)

According to Debbie who emailed me (Thanks for the info Debbie!), they have now shifted to KLCC from their KL Plaza shop. They also have a shop in Subang Parade. Check them out! I’m not sure if their current collection has pumps and covered heels. You can try paying them a visit:)

They have TONS of stores in Singapore though. If you are desperate for pumps, make a trip down south to visit the shoe shop. I went there once, and omg, i tell you, it is SO MUCH bigger than the ones in Malaysia and there are more collection of shoes there. :D

Question: JEANS

Apr 9, 2008 Author: karenmarie | Filed under: Fashion, Question, Shop Online, Shopping

Everyone NEEDS a good pair of jeans. It is the matter of how the jeans fits and the quality. But, not everyone has the perfect shaped body that fits the sizes of the jeans :D

am wondering, where’s the best place to get a really good/nice/affordable pair of jeans. especially with cuts that are flattering since i am pear-shaped… =(
-Su-

You are not alone! A lot of girls are pear shaped also. I hardly can find jeans myself, as they are usually loose on my waist area (pear Shaped myself) but fits everywhere else. Not to mention that we can’t really wear all types of jeans! It is horrendous i tell you, the dilemma of getting a good jeans. So, i usually opt for hipsters that usually sit on my hips so that i don’t have to deal with the loose waist area. But sometimes, they are super low, which makes it once again, harder to get a proper one (Butt cracks all can be seen, not a proper jeans to buy!). Try getting those which have higher cut at the back area.

Also, usually pear shaped ladies should wear a boot cut/flared bottom to balance out the derrière.  It gives you a slimmer look that balances out with the flare.

Owh, and darker colours helps too!:) (And try not to wear skinny jeans? It’s just not flattering for pear shaped)

Suggestions:

  1.  Hipsters/BootCut Jeans
    I would not suggest any, as i myself swear by one favorite jeans from Giordano and also a few from Dorothy Perkins as I am a plus size.
  2. Any suggestions from the readers? 

What brand of jeans do you swear by?

Image from Polyvore

hello! i’ve been searching high and low for a website that sells mods/nu-rave inspired clothes online with a pretty decent price that ships to/around m’sia. anyone knows of any website? or any website that sells one of those vintage ray-ban like sunglasses. thanks!
-Clara-

The one place i can think of when it comes to Nu Rave is - SHOW PINK! It is located at Bangsar Telawi Streets.

I’m not sure if they ship to around malaysia, but you can ask them if they do:) They carry a lot of Nu Rave Items :D

You can also try Osixnine. They have quite bright coloured/unique items too:)

Question: Little Black Dress

Mar 14, 2008 Author: karenmarie | Filed under: Fashion, Shopping, Trends

Someone asked,

What is a LBD and why does every girl need a LBD (little black dress)?

Here’s an article by one of our writers. She explains what is a LBD and why we all need a LBD!

*Reposted*

Every Girl’s best friend

By Elaine Loke


LBD from sxc.hu

A little black dress (LBD) is a short, unfussy evening or cocktail dress, popularized in the 1920s by the fashion designer Coco Chanel with her “Ford” dress, as Vogue later called it (Wikipedia).


LBD from fashiontribes.com

In my opinion, a little black dress is an essential in every girl’s wardrobe. It supposed to be simple and elegant that can be transformed according to occasions. One of the most important aspect of a little black dress is that it’s supposed to flatter the owner’s body at every angle and give the owner the self confidence that she deserves!

This said dress could be worn for every occasion, with elegant jewelries for an evening night out during a formal occasion, or with a simple clutch for an “all-girls-night” with your girlfriends. You can also pair the dress up with a simple cardigan or jacket for office wear.


LBD from Style.genteris.com

The appeal of this LBD is its very own simplicity. It doesn’t have to be the “in” color of the season, and it doesn’t have to be full of elaborate designs and details. No, black is not safe and boring anymore, in fact, this dress has survived all its various changes in fashions and trends, yet it has emerged as triumph.


LBD from shinyshiny

Have no second thought when investing in an LBD. You can find it everywhere in the shopping malls around the Klang Valley (such as KLCC, Mid Valley Megamall, One Utama Shopping Centre and Sunway Pyramid). The difficult part is to find the perfect cut that 100% flatters your body. It can be tube, halter, or even deep-V cut to show off those sexy cleavages! It can also be short enough to strut those killer legs with stilettos.

Remember, one huge tip while shopping for your very own LBD, is that it has to flatter you.

Where can you get little black dresses in Malaysia?

Question: Cheap and Nice Swimwear

Mar 12, 2008 Author: karenmarie | Filed under: Fashion, Lifestyle, Question, Shopping

This time, we’re looking at beach/swim wear!:)

Im looking for a nice & fancy swim wear. preferably tankini with the price of less than RM100, if possible.
Do you have an idea where can I get it?

.pel.

Suggestions:

  1. DFO
    Ikano Power Centre, PJ, (I think they have one in Centre Point PJ)

    DFO has bikinis and tankinis for below RM100. I think you can get a tankini for RM79.90. They have pretty floral designs, polkadots, etc.
  2. Beach Shop
    1 Utama
    Its located at level 3 on the connecting bridge. They sell pretty awesome beach wear. I’m not sure of the price range in that shop, but i assume it would be within your budget:)
  3. Curve Flea Market
    The Curve, PJ
    I saw a stall in this flea market selling bikinis and tankinis for below RM100. I’m not sure if they still have a stall there, go and try that flea market:)
  4. What else?
    If you know of any places that sells tankini’s and bikini’s for a budget of below RM100, do tell us:)
