Ninja Warrior Cheongsam

Dear Mummies,

Yes, I named it "Ninja Warrior Cheongsam". It's the feminine ninja sort of version. It exudes power, loves and confidence of a lady. Especially a mummy who requires great amount of stamina to continue every single day! I personally require a nice outfit to brighten up my day! This dress is like my warrior suit, I can charge around freely amid my hectic daily schedules. Every mummy is like a modern female warrior who equipped herself to protect her empire A.K.A kids.


Back to my cheongsam craze again, I love it even more! Cheongsam is no longer outdated, in fact, it's fashionable and trendy! If you realised, its amazing how the designs of cheongsam evolves to what it is now. 

Anyhow, I recently purchased a few lovely pieces and absolutely with no regrets. It just falls nicely on me. The material is so soft and comfy. These awesome dresses are from Lark and Peony. They are always working their best. Doing their best to launch the perfect pieces without fail. The owner/designer, Junie, of Lark and Peony is a pretty and chic babe who is very friendly as well. Do feel free to enquire if you have queries.

What so special about this NINJA CHEONGSAM? 

I am crazy with those lovely prints that are nicely matched to the dresses. The uniqueness of those prints on the collar and belt of each dress really a piece of art. You can fold down the collar to show off the prints or just lift the collar up and pair it with the vibrant belt for a sophisticated look. It's not overly done, true to colour, position of prints are aligned (meaning, you see what you get from purchasing online), its threading is neat and the belt is the key to accenturate a beautiful silhouette. I mean I may not be an artist by profession, however, I do have an eye for arty-farty stuff. 

Referring to the dress in following picture, they come in few colours such as black, navy, royal blue, beige and purple. I regretted not getting "The Princess in Aubergine" as I thought purple won't suit my skin tone, but I guess I am wrong. Haha. Well, its too late now. It's no longer in stock. So I should just go sob in a corner. 

In a nutshell, I almost bought all the colours of this collection except for "The Princess in Aubergine". This collection is a MUST HAVE. Go grab from what's available before you regret! Basically, all these dresses from this collection, are ideal for smart casual functions or working days. Its not too formal. Great for OL and chic mummies. Not forgetting, you can keep the tradition, why not? I am visualising this dress in Maxi sleeveless version. wooo LOL.. think too much.

Check back on my blog for other Lark & Peony pieces.

You love FREE PEOPLE apparels? Bohemian Fashion

Hi all,

I believe many of you have shopped with www.freepeople.com which is a UK brand for Bohemian fashion. Yes, I agreed, they have really pretty good bohemian sense. However, the pricing is ridiculously expensive. I love their clothes, I have a few. But somehow, not all of the products of good quality. However, from what I gathered from the website, its a good thing, they have reasonable return policy. Meaning, you can try to return your order, if you hate it.

Please note: I didn't personally try returning my stuff so I am not sure how easy it will or how difficult it will be. Do read their link for return policy.

Did you know?

In modern usage, the term "Bohemian" is applied to people who live unconventional, usually artistic, lives.
Reflecting on the fashion style of "boho-chic" in the early years of the 21st century, the Sunday Times thought it ironic that "fashionable girls wore ruffly floral skirts in the hope of looking bohemian, nomadic, spirited and non-bourgeois", whereas "gypsy girls themselves ... are sexy and delightful precisely because they do not give a hoot for fashion".[1] By contrast, in the late 19th century and first half of the 20th, aspects of Bohemian fashion reflected the lifestyle itself.

So are you a Boho-chic? I admit, I like Bohemian style. It's a trending fashion yet not too loud in their very unique way.


Alternatively, you can try out this following web (http://www.treeoflife.com.au), they have pretty good sense of Bohemiam fashion too. I love their accessories thou! And their pricing is not like slapped in the face kind. Its very reasonable for Bohemian fashion lover! Australian brand. It seems that they don't ship to Singapore. However, you can swing by their shops if you happen to be travelling in Australia. Or you can go figure out looking for an agent who can ship the items to you.






Don't fret! Another recommendation.
A great shopping US website. http://www.boutiquetoyou.com - the-moment celebrity style and fashion. They are an online retailer who carries multi design labels. Great varieties. Beautiful designs.
I love their gypsy cover page thou. So romantically greek!  They offer internationally shipping.
So go ahead and shop away!Do note, they are not entirely bohemian style so you have varieties to select. Take it slow!



Happy shopping to all boho-chic!

Happy holiday to all kids!
Till I update.
