Fashionotbly me..

Thot just wanna get some variance to the topics i blog about, and talk a bit bout fashion today. I do shop online sometimes, at my peak i get perhaps 6 pcs of clothing from online fashion blogs per month. Prices and qualities vary greatly from blog to blog..but i normally get those in the region of RM30-55.

My friend Pearly manages her own blogshop and real shop and she's the one who started me on online shopping, as her real shop is in East Malaysia and i cant visit it. Its easier that she's seen me before and knows my figure, so she's more like a personal shopper and will recommend me clothes. Click here if you'd like to see some of her items at sale. She's most friendly and helpful!

Lemme show you what i'm wearing today...

This dress (cardigan is model's own- since model has fat arms) is from Little White Crane. If i'm not mistaken, I bought it for around RM50 including postage a few months back. And here's a pic on their site, worn by (real) model.

Pic pulled from LWC, of coz.

Well, this is one of the nicer items i've bought online (excluding my fren's Pearly's items of coz, since she goes the extra mile for her customers and purchases from her are considered safebets compared with other blogs. haha. Pearly, can i have my commission now pls! :-)))

For a successful shopping trip online, the most basic requirement is to know your own vital stats, (actual, as in right now, NOT the make believe, after diet). While some other blogs just give very general description -like , fits sizes S-M. Some blogs give a comprehensive description of the pc of clothing- length, bust, waist and butt circumfrences, best fits sizes, and material. (for eg - for the pc i'm wearing - Length : 34" (86cm) Waist : up to 29" Hip: up to 37" (Fits UK6-UK10) ) I'm a size 10 currently, so yeah, i'm maxxing it out..hhaha..

And with other remarks such as "Remarks: Polka dot dual tone dress with hidden side zip and comes with a camel brown skinny belt (Quality cotton, soft and comfy) "

And a lot of times, its trial and error. I would say, perhaps 80% of the pcs bought are exactly like how i thought it would turn out, and fits nicely. Others unfortunate items i just pass along to skinner ppl (my sis-unfair!) who can just about wear anything. Since items are not expensive, and its gd fun (and blardy addictive!) shopping online, i dont exactly mind. And i betcha my sis isnt complaining too! :-) And for those blogs who is overpriced and underqualified (i mean bad quality larr), very simply, i just dont return..

As for customer service, 98% of the time, the sellers are efficient and friendly. There was only 1 blog which was rude to me and selling overpriced items too, so that's a buh bye.. (avoid Melody Fashion!)

Okay, showing you some other items that i've bought online..

This pair of shoes belong to Annie, we ordered a pair each from Milktee. This is a blog that i've been returning to, their items are not exp and quality is gd. Nice pictures and easy layout too!

And this is my pair, i have to say, Annie's pair looks much nicer.. and my pair is a tad too tight on me too, i've got very picky and blister-prone feet! :-((

Okay, thats all for now...Hope to have a fruitful shopping trip in Taiwan!!
