Still obsessing with leopard print. I think it's a trend that is here to stay. So here I am pairing my boxy leopard top with my black skirt. I think leopard print looks best with black. And I just love how the top is loose and comfy. Wore my platform harnest boots to add some fierceness into the outfit.

These shoes are really comfy even though they are really high.

Even Jaffa likes my platforms! :)

leopard print boxy top: F-Stop

black skirt: Giordano Ladies

black booties: Heel and Sole

Introducing Baguum: Bulk Free Storage Solutions!

Remember I said that I shot a video for a cool product a couple months ago? Well here it is! Introducing Baguum!

What is Baguum? BAGUUM = Bag + Vaccum. Smart huh? Baguum uses the latest in storage technology allowing users to save in storage space by making use of the volume pressure pumping mechanism which draws out air from the bags. The bags are then reduced into a third of its size all while keeping the clothes free of pests, mold and humidity.

Aside from clothes, Baguum is ideal for other household products such as towels, blankets, comforters, etc.

7 days of Giordano (Day 4 & 5)

Since I wasn't able to post my outfit yesterday so I'm posting 2 outfits today.

Day 4 outfit:
Paired the 'Essential Khakis' with a sheer vintage-y sleeveless top & heeled lace-up oxfords for a romantic tomboy look.

sheer polka dot top: Rue22

khaki trousers: Giordano

patent heeled oxfords: Schu

Day 5 outfit:

Wearing my Cambridge batchel (backpack strap). We got this one for Eli actually (for him to use as a school bag when he's older). It would look so cute on him when he's big enough to go to school. But since he's still a baby now, I get to use it first. Hahaha. 

dark purple stripes top: Giordano

pink shorts: Giordano

tan wedges: Asian Vogue

batchel (backpack strap): The Cambridge Satchel Company

7 days of Giordano (Day 3): Grape Jelly Legs

Coloured trousers are the trend for this season. Well, colours actually. I'm quite glad that Giordano have a number of coloured bottoms this season. This pretty grape coloured skinny trousers is one of the items they gave me. I decided that my peg for today's outfit is "I borrowed my boy's shirt coz I think I look great in them." Hahaha. This is such an easy outfit to wear. Perfect for those lazy days when you just grab the first thing in your closet and still look chic!

white long sleeve shirt: Giordano

purple skinny trousers: Giordano

leopard print wedges: F-Stop

7 days of Giordano (Day 2) & Oxfords Tuesdays

Channeling my inner ballerina (even though I have two left feet) by wearing my tutu skirt for today's outfit. Wore my black boyfriend blazer & black studded oxfords for a touch of masculinity. And I've been itching to wear my red socks for a long time but they got lost somewhere in the black hole of my closet. Good thing they resurfaced a few days ago. They kinda tied the whole outfit together eh?

black boyfriend blazer: Giordano Ladies

Cheer Me Up tee: Giordano

black & hot pink tutu: Glitterati
