Fashion mistakes by the 90's girls | Zalora Malaysia



 Hello ladies!!!  I’m back for a while in Hell-cember to do a special collaboration project with Malaysia’s very well known brand, ZALORA.  I’m very honoured when they offered me (yes this weird blogger) to do a one-time collaboration project with them.  Long story short, I went blank and my friends are the people who went crazily excited for this opportunity.


Ok continue...

Fashion...

When you talk about fashion, some of you would go diva, some would say ‘’I don’t know how to dress’’ and there’s the people who would go out with a pair of yoga pants and sweatshirts (believe me, I’m that person although I have a very lethal criticism about how people should dress.  I’m very ironic by the way).  Fashion is very tiring as it is know for having a fast growth (and cycle) with changing trends every season. It cannot be denied that women tend to experiment and hallucinate with their fashion looks, thinking they would look great but instead it turned out to be a major NO-NO (been there done that!!!).  And that ladies, the disasters were mostly seen during the 90’s when the fashion industry was booming with new trends, crazy ideas and whimsical designs.

 So, in this entry I will list some of the fashion don’t and recommend you guys with something I would say, elegant and demure.

 I know it’s weird when this came from a goth but heyyyyy, I’m a stylish goth *wink*.

Recommendation images retrived from ZALORA website.

1) Bandana halters.

I don't think in 2014 bandana would still be a thing in fashion especially when it comes to clothing.  Like there are so many other materials out there, so get out of the house and get some proper halters that can be used in many occasions, from partying to dinner date.

RECOMMENDATIONS: 


Chiffon Draped Top | Floral Crop Top

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

2) Retro wind breaker & starter jacket

You are not a rapper and when it's raining, people use the umbrella.  I don't think this waterproof 90's boyband jacket is stylish in 2014.  If you still own this thing, keep it in you closet and use em' for next year's halloween or anytime you're hiking in a tropical forest (I did that before.)

RECOMMENDATIONS:


Leopard Print Blazer | Collarless Tweed Biker Jacket

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

3) Denim floral block dress

Floral and denim blocking is a risky fashion statement as in a certain way, the combination would magically work but in other times they would NO-GO together.  If you like the outfit blocking trend, pick the dresses that I've recommended instead.  Material blocking with PU leather/Pleather works with mostly everything except denim.

You know wat, just keep the denim to your jeans -.-  

RECOMMENDATIONS:


Neo Prenne Panel Fit And Flare Dress | PU Cut In Fit And Flare Dress

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

4) Mom’s denim pencil skirt

NO NO NO NO NO...

Just noooooooooo!

RECOMMENDATIONS:


Rose Gold Sequin Pencil Skirt | Embellished Pencil Skirt

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

5) Dress with jeans
Really?
Anyone can be seen in the streets when women paired their jeans with dresses. Like wtf???This is definitely an outfit match appears weird to the eye, thus, women should stick the jeans with a top and the dress as it is (or wear a pair of black stockings if you are not comfortable of showing your legs.

RECOMMENDATIONS:


Lace Fit And Flare Dress | Footless Stockings

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

6) One size bubble stretchable shirts




Although this is an innovative invention (and I may get it for myself too), but it doesn't really fit into the fashion world.  Yes you can wear it but please not in public.  Come on ladies, just buy proper clothes that fits your size.  Companies sell tops in different sizes for a reason ok babes...

RECOMMENDATIONS:


Eyelet Kimono Sleeved Tee | Lace Hi-Lo Peplum

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

7) Excessive ruffled-puffy shirts
Get out of townnnnnnn.

Ruffles and puffy sleeves should be minimized and only one at a time.  

RECOMMENDATIONS:


Poly Chiffon Ruffle Dress | Sleeveless Ruffled Chiffon Blouse

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

8) Hair scrunchy & Butterfly clips
OMG I swear I got tons of these when I was a kid.  It was dope before but now, just let the kids to wear these because they're kids.  Let them make themselves looks cute and funny. 

You ladies, get demure hair jewels, you need to find men now not play dates.

p/s: but I would still scrunchy-up my bun though. LOL I don't care.

RECOMMENDATIONS:


Gems Drape Headband | Set Of 3 Hair Bands

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

9) Skin colored legging

Ahaaa the skin colored leggings.  This is a universal trick for the lazy-shavin' ladies.  I tried wearing this before, but it failed, people can see my hairy legs (LOL!).  So I gave up, I bought the opaque leggings.  I live happily since.

You guys should do the same thing too.

RECOMMENDATIONS:


Basic Leggings | Basic Phyton Leggings

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

10) Chain wallet
Only kids would use this.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
Embellished Hand Clutch
Glitter Glam Flat Clutch

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

11) Foam platform sandals
I nearly bought this many many moons ago because sometimes it's nice to feel tall but then I think, ''better not..''

RECOMMENDATIONS:

Studded Wedges
Criss Cross Straps Sandals

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

12) Dark lip liner

Wise words from me, make-up should blend with your face, not contradicting.

RECOMMENDATIONS:


Glitz Lipglaze Set


Rouge Artist Lip Palette Coral

Winter Holiday Season Fashion Shoot


I'm doing the 2nd part of my Zalora entry here since I don't want to packed everything in a single entry.  So after suggesting you ladies with cool stuff from their website, now I'm gonna show what you can wear casually during this holiday season (especially in the countries that are snowing, not here, hot as hell) 

Firstly I would like to acknowledge my partner today, Miss Nayli as the photographer.  Thanks babe, I will belanja you later lah!  Also thanks for sponsoring the jelly shoes.

So these are the mix and match outfits that I can work with after digging through my Narnia.  I was quite surprise with these outcomes and didn't noticed I got a lot of clothes until later today before doing this photoshoot. 

So here are the suggestions that I could came up with.  Simple and casual.


The first one: Pair up a simple boat neck top with a skinny pants.  I love it soo bad when my shirts accentuates my collar bones  and the well structured skinnies lies perfectly on my legs.  I'm not that tall but with the right clothes I may ended up with a few inches taller.  

The silhouette girls, the silhouette !


The second outfit: A sexy tank top works really well with kimonos.  You got your sexy thing and also you don't want to reveal that much skin but still you wanna look like a hot (Goth) Geisha.  

I just love kimonos especially the chiffon ones or lace because these material are just great for Goths like me and easy to mix n match.


The third one:  Military jacket.  This piece is still on the runway because it has a great structure and fits nicely on your body.  If you assume you don't have a nice bone structure, just grab this trending jacket peeps!


The fourth: Nothing else to say, V-neck tshirt with a scarf is da bomb!  Showing less skin is always sexy.

Final outfit: Rainboowww!!!!  My mom got me this rainbow festive pashmina and this dark queen loves it!!  Come on, it's rainbow.  Who doesn't like rainbows?  If you have lots of dark outfits like me, accessorize with a pop of color or a very red lipstick.


Thanks for reading.

Have a nice holiday while I'm depressing with the upcoming finals.

Life is full of shit.

Hectic Hell-cember 1: Graduation

I'm just too lazy to write the story of my graduation.  lol.  
Enjoy our photos :D

















 That 5 seconds of enjoyment. 

Aaaannnnddd here comes the rememberance of unfinished assignments.

God damn it!

But first! Lemme take a selfie-



Hectic Hell-vember

This is the first part of hell.  The second part will be in my December entry.  I've never expected doing bachelors degree would be more lifeless than ever although I've learned a lot of song with my ukulele.  I must say I'm coming out from my noobish coccoon.  But the hurtful part is Pokemon just arrived and I won't be able to do a long term gaming up until mid January.  Yes can you imagine how psychotic that would make me?  Plus, I got crazy during the Nintendo black Friday sale and downloaded a bunch of games that I know I won't be able to play for the next 2 months.  God!!! This is totally crazy T.T


I had my graduation last Thursday (photos are coming soon on the next entry).  Yes it was tiring but more tiring when you had a fever days before and mom really insisted me buying new clothes for graduation.  I was like, I don't give a shit because I know it would be frustrating since I have to follow the dress code and anything sheer on the arm part is not acceptable (most of my dresses and the dresses in store are sheer).

But we did find a simple peplum tshirt that would match with my ''recycled'' skirt and scarf.  The winning part is, it only costs me RM60.  A big win, I must say.  So here's the full shot of my graduation dress (gotta wear head covers [not that I have an issue wearing it] because I thought that anyone without a black hair can't enter the hall [due to some rules and shit] but instead there was an Elsa just walking around and not being barred from the ceremony.  Fucking hell!)

Graduated Goth.

I did bought something on Sephora.  It's their season's greetings lip gloss wand.  I must tell ya, go and get this coz this shit is dope, but it has a sucky taste.  


Others had the pre-grad photos with their friends but my fever was kinda severe, so I just did it by myself at home.  Had my awesome Victoria's Secret Angel wannabe moment after popping in some paracetamol.  


Achievement unlocked: Perfect winged eyeliner.
