Sunday Morning

Easy does it this Sunday. Soft, loose-fitting and laid back and at a very, very affordable price. Perfect for shooting the breeze right beneath the mango tree. Yes, I am a Jack Johnson fan and wish he weren't attached all the time.

Sense & Sensibility

Get fashionably sensible with these pretty tops. Conservative? We think not! Just look at the details-- from silk tiered bib detail to cowl neck to lace hems, these are best paired with high waisted fitted skirts or even worn loosely over wool shorts and pixie flats for that androgynous take.

Lazy stud

An oversized cardi can be your slick legging's best friend, what more in such a chill out colour palette of light grey and white stripes. And we love the suprise of the little studs, gives this silent beauty some punk edge, doesn't it? ;-)

Slouchy fashionista

Wa-hey! Another new neighbour! :-D

We're seeing a lot of stylish drapes, the kind that would go oh so well with your chunky fierce heels, and the kind that just falls over your body while adding some seriously fab volume to your silhouette.

Lazy weekend

The weather's been a bit wonky lately, so we've picked out an odd but practical set for this coming lazy weekend for you...




10am and it's time to get ready for brunch with your irritating (but loveable) brother. Here's a baby blue tank top that looks almost ordinary except for the little details in the gathers, which would beat any other normal tank top hands down!

Cozy, RM15

Available at Heart2bits


2pm, time to head to that bazaar around the corner with the girls! Since everyone's always looking mighty fashionable at bazaars, you shouldn't be looking too bad yourself. Look as cool as a cat without compromising on comfort (and just in case the aircond's not in a good mood ;-)) with this sweet peach halter top! Pair it with shorts, accessorize a little bit, and don't forget that blusher ;-)

Peachy-fied, RM10
Available at Doved-Preloved

Oh, and don't forget to wear comfy and the trendiest footwear too! Gladiator flats, a must for the weekends, right? :-)

Vincci white glads, RM23 (size 7)
Available at Quinn
p/s: also available in black!



5pm, you just got back from the bazaar and your bestie calls you out for a cup of coffee or ice cream or juice (she's not sure what she feels like yet). Bring a big, unassuming bag along-- y'know, just in case there's some shopping to do. Like at the flea market. Dududu.

Shoulder black bag, RM25
Available at Bits & Pieces



9pm and you're off to the cinema with your boyfriend. Because you want to dress down and comfy without looking like you're malas to look good, this embroidered throwover is going to do the trick for you. Comfy-- check. Snuggleness-- check. Character-- double check!

Embroidered throwover, RM40 (not worn)
Available at Think Tank Top

Sweetest wrap


A different take on the regular cardi-- sheer, wide bell-hemmed sleeves, and a feminine structure that emphasizes the bust! Indeed the sweetest steal you can find... :-)

Cardi buddies



They keep us warm in chilly places and are friends to chic damsels when wrapped with a skinny belt on the outside. Say hello to your cardi buddies!

In monochrome for easy matching, they come in 2 choices of colours--black or white, both with a row of buttons in the inverted colour, and little puffed up princess sleeves. Simple and chic :-)

The Picardi equation



A cardi a day keeps the chillees away. But this cardi? It keeps the gloomies away! With teeny colourful penguins by your side, this is on cardi for the weekends when you don't want to think of the weekdays. I'm bad at math so don't ask me how many peguins there are, tho there is one equation I do know:

Jika Penguin + cardi = Picardi, maka Picardi = Yipee!
(must read the whole sentence in BM only bes)
