Sweet comfort

We went "Awww" when we saw this top, because it's just too loveable without being childish! Wide sleeves boho comfort for that Nicole-Richie-shopping-in-style vibe. Will work with shorts or even skinnies-- this is what our weekends need more of!

Sultry hugger

For some reason I'll always gravitate towards long tops because they make you look slimmer by elongating your body and hugging you right. Here's one that you'll love, especially with the inked graphic. Sultry.

Coolest chick


We can't stop being drawn to items that make the weather seem less hottttt! Cool yourself down and let the rest sizzle in heat with this two piece basic layered tunic top (works as a dress too!)-- looks great with a thin belt around to accentuate your waist, and will look fab with loads of accessories and even fierce gladiator heels. YUMMEH!
White and blue, RM25


And if you are more of an oxfords girl rather than a gladiators girl, you can purchase this pair of oxford heels (originally from Korea) from the same place too!
Oxford heels, RM55 (size 8 - worn once)

Both items available at Souled Sisters

Bow sleeves!

A monochrome basic that would be simple enough to wear on its own (especially with its contrasting sleeve hems that can be tied into bows!), and easy enough for you to load on your favourite accessories to it! We adore effortless pieces like this ;-)

Tough sugar



You're feminine, sweet, and you know what you want-- flowers! Sunshine! And puppies that live forever! But then you grew up and realised that flowers wither and die away, sunshine has potential to turn you into a sotong bakar, and puppies don't live forever :-( So toughen up this feminine and delicate flowy top with a biker jacket, skinnies, and studded belt/heels! Now you're feminine, and tough! Rawr!! Oh, why hello there, nice to meet you :-).... RAWR!! (personality disorder, but who cares as long as you're fashionable)

And they were all yellowwhh

Does your wardrobe consist mostly of dark colours, especially black? Sure it's a slimming colour, but it can get pretty depressing too sometimes. Studies show that yellow reminds us of happiness, laughter, and good times.

Cheer up yourself and the people around you by donning something in yellow, it's a sure pick-me-up that we need more of! :-)
