Hi everyone!

I'm finally doing a post again! ^-^


Top: Dressabelle | Bottom: from a preloved site
Was so excited when I saw the last piece of this in the concept store and absolutely had to get it because it was out of stock on Sunday (day of launch) already! I love the prints. Recently went to Japan and clearly cannot get enough of sakuras! DSB launched a sakura print top some time back too, which I also bought, but I prefer this one. Material is very soft polyester satin, unlined and quite comfortable, although I am not sure if it will absorb sweat very well. Stated PTP online is 16-17" and fits me at 16.5" with about an inch's allowance. Only thing is that it ends at the hips, which is a little snug for me (my hips are about 18" across), so best tucked in so you can 'poof' it out. Colour is true to close-up on the left.

The top is now available via BO here!


Also went gaga over this necklace when it launched because it reminds me so much of Lovisa's daisy accessories. I wanted to get Lovisa's so much and would look at them every time I visited a Lovisa store, but am put off by the price and how I would have preferred daintier necklaces. This one fits the bill! It costs $19, whereas sometimes Lovisa's necklaces can go up to $50 :( The daisies are still a bit plasticky and the back snags a little on my tops sometimes, but I love how it is smaller than the usual 'statement necklace' and how it's the perfect necklace to layer under a collared top.

It is still available here.


This one I bought some time back and never reviewed till now because I always forget to do a post :( I thought it was OOS, but checking back it seems there has been a restock here. I know I said I veer away from too-big statement necklaces but I love the colours in this one, don't they look like opals? My only problem now is I don't really know how to style it without being overly 'obiang'- any tips? I paired it below with a purposely monochromatic and minimalist outfit, with my Genie in a Closet Nelly midi (in navy, sorry the filter makes it look black) and my Missypixie clutch bag (worn to death).

I haven't been online shopping much recently, but if you see anything on my Instagram that you'd like a review of, do let me know!
Have a great week ahead guys! Midweek already!

Thanks for reading!
