It's Fun to Be Skinny!

This post title is totally un-PC but please, don't get all huffy on us, it's not what we meant. We were actually referring to pants, skinny ones that is. We'd never imagine we'd have so much fun with skinny pants. When our model "N" tried on one from our newest load, we threw every damn top at her and it was F-U-N. Fun Fun Fun! So FUN and funny as well when you come to think about it cause every damn thing we threw at her looked absolutely lovely on skinnies! Again, the pants that is, not the model.

See what we mean:

******************************

#1 Specimen, The Skinnies (the pants dammit!)

Low low waist, stretchy material but not icky-ly clingy, lighter than jeans but not thin as leggings, plain and perfect, no fancy ugly decos..oh how do we love thee, let me count the ways, 1....20..gazillions..too many!

The Skinnies [P0016]: Available in Grey -S/M/L, Army Green- M
= RM 63
(**update, 8/1/08 : we should have done this sooner - Sold Out.)

#2 Skinny AND Short!

How can we not live with cropped jeans in this oh so perfect climate (in the flaming ball of fire sense) that is Malaysia? This is so so so the perfect cropped jeans - long enough to do a rollup, low waist, no icky labels sticking out in odd places, and you can't see it here, it's got an attitude too with a gold 'Bitch' tattoed on it's ass , ok a little '90s in terms of attitude but -totally bad ass.

(**update, 8/1/08 : we should have done this sooner - Sold Out.)

#3 Circus Clown's No Where as Fun

We don't understand it, it's so simple, and we don't get it. How does this perfect long shirt work? How does it cling to our bodies like it knows where to grab onto? How did the sleeves know it's so much freakin' better when it stops just right above the elbow? How? How??

Will So Give My Limbs For That Rating (WSGMLFT)

For this look, we're totally advocating the skinny belt (+ it fits the theme! Yay for perfectly synched themes!):

#4 Now Who Said Bling is Bang?

Sequins = Bling Bling=Bling Bang, haha, get it? Ok, maybe not now but it sure was funny when we were shooting this cause we kept dreaming of Leo (bling bang?), well, not funny ha ha but funny how we kept drooling. This is dressy without looking like you tried too hard trying to turn up all casual. Yeah, sounds about right.

#5 Is It A Shirt Is It A Dress It's a Shirt Dress!

Oh how we love shirts that are not quite shirts and dresses that are not quite dresses cause you may want to feel pretty one day and it's a dress and you may want to feel pretty casual another and it's a shirt! And you feel pretty damn casual and comfortable it's a throw-it-on-and-go wraparound shirt dress!

= RM 35
(**update, 8/1/08 : we should have done this sooner - Sold Out.)

#6 To The Even More Confused

We'd definitely call this a shirt as it does come quite short just nice for a tunic top. Of course, unless you're a petite or you're real tall and feeling pretty slutty (in a good way, not big hair chilli lips way), then you can call it a dress. Whichever the case, can something so confused be any hotter?

Now did we not say being skinny is fun!

Onwards with the long awaited post:

******************************

#1 The Perfect ShirtOnce upon a time, there was a perfect Hollywood actress who wore the perfect white starched shirt. Long have the ladies beyond the ancient seas..er..longed for the same perfect shirt. Alas! They searched to ends to no avail, for the perfect shirt was hidden amongst the pile of clothes on Leng's bed:To the common eye, this shirt may not look like much (in parts because Sophie's only half a mannequin) but we absolutely vouch for the perfect-ness of this shirt. No peeping bra through the buttons even when the shirt hugs really beautifully. Really, you've trusted us so far.

#2 Roman Holidaying

Ok, she's probably wearing the same shirt as the one above but for some reason, looking at her here reminded us so much of this:

And so longingly we were looking at this too.

Short Sleeve Overshirt with Ribbon [T0060]: Available in White - S, Black- S/M/L

#3 Could It Be?

This is like her signature look, second to that dress. We screamed, we pulled hair (not our own), we would have begged on hands, knees, ears to want to have something like that and then we saw this:

We turned to each other and thought out loud, "could it be? really really be?" Well, it looked like it, we couldn't know for sure, then we put it on, and we knew.

Will So Give My Limbs For That Rating (WSGMLFT)
= aiieeeee! (super low waisted! we can't wear high waist, we're just not Audrey)

The Long Audrey Capris [P0012]: Available in Navy Blue - M/L
= RM 63
(**update, 8/1/08 : we should have done this sooner - Sold Out.)

We do apologise for styling it in the slutty shoes, but for the lack of a good tailor to give the pants a good length for our model during the shoot, we needed her to be taller in this. But, we're sure you'll find yourself a good tailor cause no clothes should go uncustomised! Pity they can't make it turn black.



#4 The Dress That No One Else Can Have

This one is so an evil thing to do but this was the only one left and we decided that every woman for herself is as good a motto as any to live by!
Photo's blurry cause we were shaking with gleeee!!


#5 The Might Have Been

This one we love so much that we couldn't wait to show you, though we couldn't find a pic of Audrey in something like this, well, actually we didn't care to find it cause we think she would have looked absolutely absolutely excruciatingly fabulous in this anyway:

Maybe she would, maybe she wouldn't, we would never know. To us it should have very well been. Even if not, hey, we got to show you the piece and we're happy enough with that.

#6 And the Rest We Ran Out of Time to Take Pictures Of

Truthfully, we had it in mind to show you the rest of the stuff we have that fits today's theme but we honestly ran out of daylight to take the photos. So arm yourself with a dose of imagination and blind faith in our word when we say we have some good steals of these two:

It's as if the skinny belt never left us!


We don't have the flirting down pat but we can account for the skirt. Probably not from the Audrey era we love but still, we love mod! (we're really not sure which era this is but we call it as we see it)

If you're thinking of doing your own Audrey channelling, may we suggest paying attention to:

- Boat Necklines
- Belted Flare Skirts
- Minimal Blings or Maximum Blings (no in between)
- Really Skinny Long Sleeve Turtlenecks
- Shift Dresses with Cinched Waists

Tons of pictures we have but none the time to put them up so google away!

Gearing Up For Round Two

We've been busy busy busy thinking of what's to come next for our avidly slobbering group of shopaholics and we're going to say......'think classic'.

We'll be channeling:


Well, like seriously, who hasn't done an Audrey? So we hope we'll be doing her justice.

As timeless as classics get, we know we all worry we'd end up looking like we stepped out of a Stepford-ville tea party. Though we're pretty sure you wouldn't mind looking like you've just stepped out of Tiffany's after some coffee, bacon & eggs:

Urp!

The Trouble With Air Conditioning Is...

First, you step out of your house..brrr...freezing cause it's a dewy 8AM, then you drive to college or work or wherever it is you go at 8AM in the morning, even brrrr....car air con blowing directly at your face. Then, you get out of your car into the stuffy parking lot, it's suddenly a sauna in there. Then, you get into your office, and guess what? Bloody air conditioning again! No wait, not done yet. Then, suddenly after goofing off checking out people's (that's our) blog and forwarding funny animal pictures at work, it's lunch! Then it's out in the bloody sun now eating at the chinese coffeeshop. THEN, it's back to the bloody #(&$^ air conditioning again!

See the trouble with air conditioning is, it leaves every girl in the office with a standard black knit cardi hanging over the back of their office chairs.

So if you're gonna leave it out for everyone to see, you must at least leave these:

Pop! Goes My Heart!

We know it's kinda been a few months since this movie came out but we're still watching Pop! Goes My Heart music video on YouTube. Too funny Hugh Grant!

Anyway, what we mean to talk about is really Drew. We love Drew and we especially love Drew in the movie, her clothes were just so adorable, a little vintage-y a little boho and we'd like to dress like that every day very much!


So inspired, we went looking:

*******************************

#2 The White Painter Shirt

Look closely, we love her collar details and we didn't see similar collared ones but we think this is as good a product of an inspired shopaholic as any:

Even without the belt, there is a gutter around the waist so it's got a pretty good shape.

#3 Dressing Down

Weird picture of Drew here but the dress! It looks almost effortless.

We weren't so lucky to stumble upon anything similar but channeling Drew, she'd probably have a getup that looks something like this:
Great sleeves and dress length. Neckline falls just nice, does not pull up weirdly like some similar dresses.

#2 We Have the Answer to Easy Strapless Wearing

We know we'd like to imagine wearing strapless pieces more often than we'd actually wear one, why? The tugging, the drooping, and frankly, our assets are not enough to freeze those tubes in place. So we wear this! No dress, with jeans -even better!
