Style Inspirations / Lookbook

I was just finishing the HairZing review/giveaway on my other blog TIGERLILY'S BOOK when I suddenly had a really bad gastro! Oh shoot...my stomach feels weird, I vomit (sorry if *tmi), and then my body feels really bad I need to take a rest. So here's a quick short post for you. Some inspirations from my personal lookbook which I gathered online :)

I always wanted to try a button down style but haven't tried any because I find that most of the button down shirts that the market offered are always a little big on me, and since I'm petite so I'd prefer a fitted ones which are hard to find (at least for me). Until I found a perfect button down I'm gonna have to save this inspirational page ^o^

I also always wanted to try a blazer style which I once mention in my previous post, but I doubt if I can pull it right ;p I personally like this blazer style of this fellow weardrobe user: Beth from b.jones style. I like the way she uses a drop of color that shines throughout her entire outfit. The color palette in this one is just gorgeous. And I love the jewelries she's wearing too! Bold yet laid back and chic.

It was love at first sight when I saw this pic on weardrobe. I like everything she wears here. It screams boho meets casual chic. This is from user Buffalo Stance from the blog with the same name. I especially love the jacket and all that gold accessories she wore. I must get a gold bangle like that, stats! (oh and don't forget her vintage furry bag!)

Maximize what you have! As many other fashion bloggers tell you, sometimes you just have to maximize what you already have to make another new outfit. And this is exactly what Rebecca from See You in Sweden did in her chicblog on Chictopia. Did you notice that the grey fab dress she's wearing is actually a big-sized sweater of her?? Yes, she's that genius! I actually thought the whole outfit she's wearing is a dress itslef, and how wrong am i. Now this is actually a self-create outfit that we all can try at home ^o^

and there's always a room for vintage style! Yes to me, please!
I found this lovely girl via Flickr wardrobe_Remix group. Her name is Andrea from A Cat of Impossible Color, I am so delighted I found her blog because I am so adoring her style! :D I will definitely gonna friendly stalk her outfit from now on :)

Outfit posts

As I mentioned before, my laptop is broken and had to go to the computer clinic. Now I got my laptop back but all data were gone! They said it's the hard-drive that was broken down and they couldn't saved the data (well they could, but it comes with a very very expensive fee which doesn't make sense), so here I am, losing all my photos and data and sources and everything, sob... :(

So now that I've lost all data, I'm not sure what to post.. I guess I'm just gonna put an easy outfit post. These photos are what's left in my camera memory card so I guess I'll just put it here and saved it. These are outfits that I wore several days ago, around last week..

After my previous post about new things in my wardrobe where I told you guys that I bought a floral peach top and post a single photo of it, some of you readers emailed me and asked for more details about that particular top. So here it is, a few details of the top as well as photos of how I wore it:

I like the shape of this top, I got this from a boutique in Poins Square for IDR 70.000 only.
I like the color which although looks a little bit pink-ish but it's actually peach. I love the floral patterns, of course! And the lace detail at the hem, the flowy shape of the sleeves and the lace ribbon at the back. So ultra feminine! :)

peach top: from boutique in Poins (I forgot it's name)
jeans: Lea
bag: bought in Petaling, Malaysia
necklace: Naughty
floral sandals: Charles & Keith
charm bracelet: courtesy of Charm Factory

I wore this to meet up with my old college friends. Some of the girls say I should wear this kind of blouse more frequently because I appear to look less skinny in it (I'm known for being too skinny). Well, I'm not sure if it's the blouse or the hair (which i curled) that makes me look less skinny but I'm gonna try both ;).
The charm bracelet is a courtesy from Charm Factory which I did a review on it a long time ago. I chose all the charms personally, all of them represents me and my life. I chose these charms to adorned my bracelet: a green peridot (my birth stone!), a fairy, a "chocoholic" charm, a silver heart with peridot, cubic zirconia initial letter, a silver cat, "i love to shop" charm, and a pink breast awareness charm.

What, one outfit photo is not enough? okay, here are a couple of my other daily outfit (you can check the rest on chictopia):

creme tubedress: Old collection of mine
crocheted vest: A really old collection of mine
gladiator sandals: TopShop
purse: courtesy of Davie and Chiyo
necklace: souvenir from mom
bangles: bought online from India
hair accessory: courtesy of HairZing

I wore this to the bookstore and the mall. The dress is a tube dress which I paired with a crocheted vest that I owned for so long (i think i was probably still in high school when i bought the vest, and that's like over 10 years ago ;p).
The hair accessory that I wore is courtesy of HairZing. I was sent several items from HairZing and decided to try and review one of it that day. It was good and didn’t hurt at all even if I’m wearing it all day. It also grip my hair in all the right places so i don’t have to fastened it every couple of hours, which is great. I also love the practicality of it, it’s not hard to configure how to wear it and it could be worn in different style thus giving you several hair styles with just one HairZing. I love it so far :D Wait for the full review post (and a possibility of a giveaway) on my other blog "TIGERLILY'S BOOK".

top: bought from a friend
denim mini skirt: Tilt
blue beads necklace: Naughty
turquoise necklace: Pasar Rawa Bening (a local jewelry market)
ring: vintage, from Mom's closet
bag: bought in Petaling, Malaysia
floral sandals: Charles & Keith
hair accessory: Naughty

The ring is my mother's, she has quite a collection of jewelries which she collected since she's young, most of them have ethnic style or just plain unique like this ring! :)
The headband is one of my newest buy, it has a pattern which is similar to animal print (which of course i love!), based on my lust for animal-prints i think i'm gonna start collecting animal-print fashion items from now on ;)
I wore this for a day of shopping ^o^ Well, actually it was shopping day for hubby. He needed new shoes so we went shopping looking for new shoes and/or maybe some jeans for him, but at the end of the day we end up with nothing. He didn’t find the right shoes and we didn’t find a good jeans either. But I end up with one jegging and two books instead! Ha! ;p

Thanks for reading!
