NewDress Wistlist


Another clothing wish list because you can have never have enough clothes hue~ ^.< This is post in collaboration with NewDress.com. Their site and clothing is very similar to Dresslink.com, they offer the latest fashion trends at amazing inexpensive prices, great for those that are on a budget or don't want to spend much on new clothing all the time, whilst being able to keep up with all the latest asian fashion trends. ^^ After browsing through the site, here are the items i've selected for my NewDress Wishlist~

1) Sexy Retro V-Neck Backless Dress US$8.07

Such a beautiful dress! Love both of the colours, I honestly can't chose which colour QwQ~ This would be great for clubbing and parities. I love how sexy yet elegant it is.


2) Asymmetric Bodycon Dress - White $5.09

Dresses with half sleeves are my favourite. This bodycon dress is simple yet sexy as it shows your figure. The black edges add a lovely statement detail thats not in your face. They also have this dress in reserve colour option - black with white edges. I chose the white one as I feel it has a more clean and sharp look to it, plus I have way too many black clothes! 


3) Synthetic Leather Tote Bag - Wine Red $10.45

Tote bags are my go to bags; they pull an outfit together perfectly yet the size is practical and holds your essential belongings. In this case, i've chosen this tote bag in a lovely wine red colour, great for adding some colour to your outfit or to make an statement. NewDress also have this available in green, khaki, navy blue and black. 


4) Floral Chiffon Romper $8.58

The perfect romper for summer~ such a versatile piece, you could wear this as an everyday look, to the beach and parties.


5) Korean Ripped Black High Waist Skinny Jeans $8.55

I feel that skinny jeans and ripped jeans are an essential for any person that adores edgy fashion - THESE ARE A MUST HAVE TO ME <3 *^* two in one, what more could I ask for?


6) Bowknot Cut Out Prom Party Dress $7.12

HOW ADORABLE ARE THE CUT OUTS AND BOWKNOT? The monochrome combination as well is to die for! I utterly adore this dress but it will take some courage for me to wear it out :')


7) Evening Chiffon Party Dress - Red $4.50

Last item~ I have a thing for red dresses, they're always on my clothing wish lists~ :') 


Thats it for my wishlist~ If you guys love Dresslink, be sure to check NewDress! I'm sure you'll love it equally. There are currently over 17,000+ products available; I ended spending hours browsing the site, oops. :')

This is currently my most favourite wish list i've created so far, I will get round to purchasing every single piece here soon hue~ xDD What's your favourite item from my NewDress wishlist? ^^

Recently Sistar's Soyu went on this crazy harsh diet in order to lose 8kg. She revealed on Get it Beauty her method was to crazily exercise and eat. Which consisted of:

  • One meal a day of 4 quail eggs without yolk
  • A cup of Milk

Exercises:
  • Yoga
  • Weight training Cardio
  • Choreography rehearsals

This is an extreme diet, which is not only harsh but very unhealthy for the body.
What do you think of this method and would you try it out?

- White Lining -


I received this lovely dress from Dresslink which you may have seen in my Dresslink Review and Haul~ A simple piece that can dressed casual, formal or suited for parties depending how you style it. I dressed it up with a floppy hat and leather tote bag for a more classy every day look. For a casual look, I would pair the dress with high knee shoes for a more toned down look and cutesy feel. In all honestly i'm not quite sure where I would wear this outfit to, fashion week or on a good day when I feel like dressing up a bit more maybe? :')

Outfit Details:

Dress: Dresslink 
Hat: H&M
Bag: Somnium Premium Korea
Shoes: Topshop

Tell me in the comment below: how would you style this dress? ^^

DressLink Review and Haul


Overdue post due to exams at the time and on going projects - sorries! Another collaboration post with Dresslink~ Gianna from DL was kind enough to contact me and send me some awesome items to review and to share my experience with you guys. 

What is Dresslink?

For those that have not heard of Dresslink before, it's a online fashion retailer based in Hong Kong that sells a vast range of fashion products at affordable prices. When you sign up, you'll receive a $50 cash coupon that you can use to reduce 15% off your sub total, minus the shipping cost. They also give discount codes via email too.

Shipping cost:

They offer 6 different shipping methods, so that you can select the method most suitable for your needs and the country you live in. Dresslink thoughtfully have a Shipping Guide to give you more information to make selection easier. You can chose which method during checkout. The cost depends on the weight and size of your order. The shipping cost is fantastic like their product prices.

My total order came to USD$24.15 - Subtotal being $17.79 and shipping cost at $6.36. I also used my Cash Coupon, which reduced $1.78 off my order. The final total being $22.37. The method I used was China Post, which takes 10 to 25 business days to arrive. I ordered on May 20th, it was processed the next day with a tracking number and provided me a link that enabled me to see where my package was. I received my order on 4th June - 15 days later. Pretty good considering it was all way from Hong Kong to UK.

What Did I Order? 

I ordered 4 items, everything was neatly packed and each item was packaged individually too. (I am currently on vacation so I don't have the items with me to photograph. >.< Thankfully I have featured some in my previous posts. ^.<)

1) Round 50s Steampunk Sunglasses - Colour 1 


I LOVEEEE these glasses! There are 10 colours available - I opted out for "Colour 1" which has black lenses and black frames with a gold rim. I personally think the size of the glasses are perfect! Not too small, not too big; suits my fussy perfectionist needs. Due to its perfect size, these glasses should fit well with all types of face shapes and sizes. The quality is really good! Not cheap or flimsy, I can see these lasting for a long time without breaking. Dresslink have added more sunglasses to their store - so many tears of happiness for glasses enthusiast like me~ QwQ"

2) BADMAN Crop Top 


You may recognise this from my wishlist~ Digging the pun of this shirt bad man in stead of bat man. :') The graphic shirt is designed beautifully; the illustration is large enough to make an edgy statement. The crop of the shirt is not too exposing. It's oversized, flowy and lightweight - great for summer. I think this looks great paired with a red tartan shirt, in the photo above I paired it with a black and red blouse. One thing to note, i've noticed that shirt stretched the more I washed it .__. The quality of the material could be improved.

3) Korean Fashion Glasses - Caramel


Another pair of glasses because as mentioned above i'm a glasses enthusiast hue. Censored my face because I looked conceited and i'm not very fond of these photos. >.< Posted them anyway so you can see how they fit your face. ^^

There are 3 colours available. I got them in the colour caramel, as I own too many black glasses and thought it would be a nice subtle change. These are fashion frames, so the lenses are plain and don't have prescription. Eason Chan owns one very similar too~ I like how these make you appear more intelligent and adds a classy touch to your outfits. The price is a killer - the quality is good and well made, it doesn't even look like it only costed $3.20 wtffff. QwQ

4) Zeagoo 3/4 Sleeve Casual Patchwork Contrast Dress 


Last item~ Such a simple piece; it can be casual, formal or suited for parties depending how you style it. Here, I dressed it up with a floppy hat for a more classy every day look. The dress is made from polyester and spandex which in traps moisture, so I don't recommend wearing this during summer. Boyyyy you will boil, no joke! xD Ideal for autumn and spring though :') It's also short, so wear it with safety shorts under. Leggings would great with it during the colder seasons.

Would I order from Dresslink again?

These items where sent to me, so technically I didn't purchase them myself. However I genuinely had a good experience with them, so yes I definitely will be ordering from them in the future. Shipping was relatively quick and I am currently eyeing on a lot of other items! :') I did not experience any problems with them, but if I were to their customer service was great. The email response was quick and Gianna was very friendly! ^__^ I received emails whenever I visited the site to ensure I had no problems. *inserts proof* 


Customer service is key to me and effects my decision on purchasing from a company. Kudos to Dresslink. Clothing wise, you get the quality you pay for. it could be improved but hey the price is a absolute killer. :') As for accessories, glasses in my case exceeded my expectation and I utterly adore them! ^.^

Hope you found this post informative! I tried to include as much details as possible without it being too long (otherwise I myself would have gotten bored xD) as some people tend to be skeptical from shopping on new sites. ^^

Have you tried out Dresslink before? :')

MUA Luxe Velvet Lip Lacquer - Kooky Review


This is the lippy I mentioned in my most recent outfit post - Witch Vibes. My friend Johanna got this as we were conversing about the Lime Crime Velvetines; the Velvet Lip Lacquers pretty much seemed like a dupe. There are 10 shades in the range, the colour I will be reviewing is Kooky - a gorgeous dark vampy berry purple. Kooky also reminds me of MAC's Heroine.


Totally digging the frosted matte plastic packaging! The product is easy to apply; it appears like a lipgloss when you first apply it, once dried it turns into velvet matte finish. It takes a few minutes to completely dry, the product is quite heavy so during the drying time your lips will feel sticky. Don't let your lips touch together, otherwise the layer will be patchy and ruined. Sounds like a pain in the ass, but once you get past the drying stage, it's becomes smudge proof, waterproof and does not budge. Even whilst eating it still remains. To remove it, simply use makeup remover - it turns into little flakes when coming off. Although Kooky is dark, it does not leave any stains behind.

Taken whilst drying

It's highly pigmented, one dip in the tube is enough. The texture is slightly creamy. Like majority of matte lipsticks and lip lacquers, you'll have a dry feeling on your lips. So make sure to scrub your lips and moisturise with balm before hand. Overall a good product regardless of the sticky drying time. It makes me want to try out Lime Crime Velvetines even more! >.<


Pros:

  • Beautiful packaging
  • Smudge proof
  • Waterproof
  • Matte Finish
  • Pigmented
  • Great range of shades available - everyday and bold colours
  • Long lasting
  • Awesome price

Cons:

  • Sticky and heavy
  • Does not moisturise 

Rating: 7/10

Have you try any lip lacquers? ^^
