The Great Gatsby

Watched the movie over the weekend. And ohmygod, I LOVE!

For those who haven't watched, don't worry! I'm not doing a movie review, so there won't be any spoilers here.

This movie is one of the most beautiful I've seen. It is visually mesmerizing.

Everything is glittery and golden. The parties extravagant and over the top. The characters beautiful and smart.

And the dresses that they wore! Ahhh, so so pretty.

Thru out the movie, I was ooh-ing and aah-ing to myself at the main character's dresses.

Aren't they beautifullll? Fur and embelishments, glitters and bows, pearls and lace. So soft and feminine.

I have never paid much attention to 1920s fashion until now. This is one fashion trend that I do not mind following. 

And because I'm so inspired, I have put together some Gatsby-inspired outfit. 

Kurung from Arma Couture, Glittery Shoes from Salvatore Ferragamo and Glitter Clutch from ShopBop 

This is what I would wear to a wedding. Gatsby-style.

Fashion Styles: Blouse

If you have been following me on this blog, you’d probably know that I’m such a girly girl. I just love being a girl. Seriously, what’s not to love? We have the best in fashion. Fashion is dedicated to us, women! From hair bands and clips to shoes and stockings, and everything in between. I had many fashion phases growing up. The “Clueless” inspired fashion; checkered pants, preppy blouses and small furry backpacks, short dresses with platforms ala Baby Spice and so much more. But, as I grow older, I stuck to a classic and simple style. My husband loves it when I’m dressed in a simple skinny jeans/pants and blouse . And that has been my staple since I got married. I admit – I would love to be more adventurous in my styles (like in my younger days) but I don’t think my husband can tolerate that. Lol. Over the years of experimenting, I have learned what’s good on me and what’s not, what I like and what I dislike. I prefer blouses; smart casual mostly to cotton tshirts. After tur

#20facts

So, I've been tagged by Sherliza from ziggy zig ah   to do this fun but also time-wasting game. LOL. And here goes. I'm very manja. If you know me, you'd probably know that.  I think I'm hilarious. Even I laugh at myself sometimes. Haha.  I'm generally a positive person.  I also have very high self confidence/self esteem. I genuinely think I'm pretty. (Another example is #2 :p)  I never had and don't have any issue with me being short. Again this relates to #4. Most people would think that I do, but meh being short/petite is pretty awesome.  I do have issues with me being fat. This generally happens once a month when I see a photo of a slim woman in skinny jeans. It also coincides with my time of the month. Hmmm.  Although honestly, I don't think I'm thattt fat. #internalconflict I am obsessed with designer handbags, which I think is going to be my (or my husband's) downfall.  I also have developed a love for diamonds after I got my
