I find swing dresses shapeless and hard to style without using a belt until I saw this dress. First of all, I'm crazy about embroidery trend as of the moment so honestly if this dress doesn't have embroidery on it my chance for me to get this is nil. But the intricate embroidery has won me over.
One of the items on the to-do list when my sis came from overseas was to visit the Three Sisters in Blue Mountains. Since there's 3 of us girls in the family we can have a pic together with the caption 'The 3 sisters at the 3 sisters', how fun and cheesy haha.
Ok, here I am again with my scored embroidered pieces but this time the whole look is courtesy from Zaful. I hope this trend wouldn't slow down yet as I still enjoy rocking in them. While the jacket and shorts were separates I made sure the embroidered figures are similar and of the same colour. That way it won't clash and give a cluttered look.
I know I'm late with my post this week, it was a long weekend and my family and I went in and out of town. Spending time with them was priceless though I'm out of budget now I'm still glad I've made several photo shoots for the blog. One of the events we went was Vivid Sydney which is occurring for 3 weeks during winter in the central part of the city.
My sis from overseas is visiting and one of her bucket list is to pick apples from the orchard. So we went to Bilpin last Saturday which is a 2 hour-drive west of Sydney to pick not only apples red and green but also oranges and mandarin. Unfortunately, the oranges were not yet ready and the mandarin is in another location but I was happy enough to be able to come out of my normal Saturday routine.
Obviously, I'm going crazy with embroidery trend and there's no sign of stopping. I've had so many floral pieces I showcased in my blog already but let me add this rose embroidered mini skirt to my list. Embroidery designs are large, high-contrast and often multi-coloured, hence, they are not limited to a single colour. There is nothing subtle about this trend, it is designed for maximum impact.
Perhaps the most risqué trend for the year is the see-through lace but is also the prettiest when done properly. You see, lace can be edgy. When paired with certain fabrics, colours and styles, you can transform lace into a piece of fashion with attitude. And more when the style is one of the hottest trends at the moment.
I think there's a bit of bohemian in all of us. I denied it at first but I realised I owned several bohemian pieces without acknowledging I was drawn to it. It might be the paisley, floral or animal prints in the fabric or the exotic embellishment, tassel or fringe in the outfit, there's something about them that draws you in.
I was always the one who shied away from oversized clothing, I felt like I look like a dwarf when I wear one. Now that the oversized trend is going on, I tried once again how I look like in this cream coloured hoodie for a start. But I like it, not bad at all especially because of this eyelet lace-up shoulder detail.
I've been wanting to have brunch in Celcius Coffee since I saw their yummy goodness loaded waffle in Instagram. Then one fine day my waffle dream came true, thanks to my niece and nephew who demanded me to get up early on a Saturday (whew!). You see, on Saturdays I get out of bed at 11am to make up for the loss of sleep during the week so this café must be worth it to be awake as early as 8 to get ready. What??? All for the waffles!
