Psst! Bag Sale at Net-a-Porter

There’s been a sale on Net-a-Porter for some time and I’ve been putting off surfing on it because I do not want to be reminded of the lovely bags out there which I still can’t buy (because I’ve burst my shopping budget for Fall/Winter!).
Now that I have looked, here are the beauties I’ve spied:

Can you [...]

Everyone Loves A Hit List

It seems that everyone has an obsession, to varying degrees, with hit lists. You know, things like Top 10 Spring Trends and the likes. While we all know that things are usually more complicated than can be distilled into neat little lists, we like the feeling of order that such lists give us.
But personally, I [...]

Knit Work

I love knitwear - they are comfortable (when of cotton mix), easy to wear (no need for irons!) and when wore right, you can look sophisticated and put together with minimum effort.
As proclaimed over and over again, I adore the Scandinavian aesthetics. It is minimalistic yet far from boring. And the cut is usually immaculate.

Fall Wardrobe

I have been thinking endlessly about my fall wardrobe - I know there is something wrong with this thought. Firstly, it’s always 30 degrees Celsius in Singapore, so technically we are not seasonal.
Perhaps that is also why someone retorted “There is no such thing as “Fall” in Singapore!” when I wistfully mentioned that I could [...]

Fendi at the Great Wall of China!

Last week, Fendi threw a crazy party in China. At the Great Wall of China, to be precise! Karl decided to restage his Fall 2007 collection, with Du Juan in the black empress cheongsam gown as the finale look:

Obviously there were loads of Chinese-inspired outfits, and of course, the re-issued Fendi Baguettes which are [...]

The Oversized Knitted Cardigan

This fall, knits are going to be huge! Other than having a navy blue knit cardigan from Country Road, I actually have zero knit clothing because I will basically melt in them without air-conditioning. That, however, will not stop me from looking out for pieces that may just be perfect for Singapore, such as a [...]

Updates on Leather Dress Hunt!

Just in case anyone was wondering, here are my findings on the Zara leather dress hunt!
I found several identical pieces at the Zara of Liat Towers, but was stunned to oblivion that each dress cost SGD459. That is superbly pricey for a simple A-line black leather dress!
I wish we had more flea markets in [...]

That Perfect Leather Dress

Truth be told, since we came back from Europe, the Fashion Nation girls have taken a fancy to leather clothing. First expressed in our leather jacket post, it seems that the interest is not just in the Fashion Nation sphere and has expanded globally. Specifically, for fall, it has to be the hunt for the [...]

Love Hotel

There are some looks which I am interested in, but have yet to acquire clothing items for. Specifically, for F/W 07/08, I am into structured volume and minimalist chic.
Which brings to mention Ania Kuczynska, whose collection I found really interesting recently.

Her collection for F/W 07/08, Love Hotel, is centred around the internal contradiction of being [...]

The Clutch that Clutched My Heart

After a gruelling two weeks at work, I spent my weekend off perusing through fashion magazines. Vogue, Style, Her World, Harper’s Bazaar, Catalog - from international to local to free-for-all - you name it, I’ve read it.

The first fashion spread which jumped straight to my heart is this fabulous Prada accessory feature of the Fall [...]
