Backdated OFTDs

Super-duper outdated! I've been committed to discovering old clothes stuck under my pile and am very surprised to find clothes that I never remembered having. Good lord.

Love, Bonito Razzle Dazzle Playsuit in Blue (M) & Jacket from my sister

I remember this piece. It came during the CNY period two years ago and two years ago, M size was too small for me. I needed a L at least. Lost weight and saw Jipaban selling and decided to take a leap of faith. So glad I could fit in it! Florals are amazingly pretty and the fabric looks like it was weaved in a cross-stitch manner. *touches it adoringly*



Her Velvet Vase English Rose Dress in White (L)

I think I may have reviewed this piece before but recently my Mom altered the waist area for me so it's very fitting now! Totally love the cut (and my Mom).


Love, Bonito Gayle Skater Dress in Grey (L)

This is one understated piece. This is the dress I reach out to whenever I do not have the mood to co-ordinate my outfits. When I do not have time to think at night about what I wanna wear the next day, I would reach out for this. The lace overlay causes it to get snagged by sharp objects like crystals on my nails and my bag zippers, but a good thing is that when it does, it's not obvious. Definitely a keeper.


ASOS A|Wear Stud Panel Bodycon Dress (12)

I don't think I need to talk much about this dress. If you are still lemming for it, get it.



Love, Bonito Camilla Corset in Sunshine (L) & Sherwood Shorts in Green (L)

One of my favourite combinations! Love colourful oufits. Tex tells me he misses my presence. I asked him "Is it because you miss seeing a colourful figure lurking around your house?" If you are not comfortable with wearing loud prints with long pants, this is a good compromise. Shorts are without lining but not sheer as the prints are loud enough. I'm quite annoyed by the black band (not elastic) though - wish the prints extended all the way to the waist.



F21 Printed Floral Dress (L) - altered

Love, Bonito Carter Corset in White (L) & Miranda Skirt in Hot Pink (L)

Barbie combi. I like.




Love, Bonito Taffie Top in Violet (L) & Francoise Tulip Skirt in (L)

Love, Bonito Tasmin Tube in Vermillion (L) Cotton On Floral Jeans (12) & Love, Bonito Blanche Blazer in White (M)

Supre Neon Dress in (S)

Got this Supre dress for AUD$5 at their warehouse in Perth! Yay!!! Whenever I wear it, I feel like I am supposed to go diving.. all their material's fault! Hahaha!



Love Bonito Ida Dress in Black (L) & Billowy Chiffon Blouse in Nude (M)

This is worth documenting because I bet no one hardly remembers that Billowy Chiffon Blouse was one of Love, Bonito's favourites! Still kept both colours till this day..


Her Velvet Vase Rosette Blouse in White (M) & F21 Teal Bandage Skirt (L)

H&M Printed Dress (38)

ASOS Graphic Print Dress (12)

Still one of my favourite print dresses to date! Fit is slightly loose for me and it is low-back, recommended to wear stick-on bras.


F21 Peplum Tube in White (S), Uniqlo Ankle Pants in Khaki (70); altered & M(phosis heels (6)

Love the M(phosis heels! Very light-weight and easy to walk with! I got a size smaller than my usual size as the cutting runs big. With size 6, my heels end just a little bit over the back of the shoe but the front strap will definitely expand with long wearing so my feet will slip in forward, hence not much of a hassle.




Nichii Lace Top in Black (L) & Cotton On Jeans in Mine (12)


One of my favourite tops to date because it is so slimming. Was quite skeptical to try on jeans of light colours, thinking that they would make my thighs look fatter than ever but this was just fine when I tried it on in the outlet in Perth. A mad steal for AUD$10. :)


F21 Oversized Blouse & Uniqlo Stretch Capri in Cobalt (L)

This is not the best combi I am proud of. I've seen better ones on myself but I would just like to have a shout-out for this pair of pants! Uniqlo still has it and I trust them for their awesome cutting! Got Cobalt because Black, White and Khaki are boring. This is a fresh new change in my wardrobe. :)


Love, Bonito Dashelle Lace Top in Beryl (M) & Uniqlo Ankle Pants in Black (70)

Zar Basics Tank Top in Black (M) & ASOS Printed Pants (12)

Zara Basics Tank Top in White (M) & F21 Floral Pants (M)

F21 Mesh Dress in Black (M)
 

Love, Bonito Milan Peplum Dress in Fuchsia (L)

Definitely oversized! I hate being in-between sizes and it looked tight on the models so I caved in and got L. It is too big for me around my bust, providing no support at all. What a waste as I really love the hourglass cutting on the dress. Will be letting this dress go for sure.

Smooch Camille & Belle Dress in Black (M)

Need. No. Introduction. I love appliques and this is madddddd pretty but the asymmetrical straps need some getting used to. Sometimes it looks weird to me but I just look down a bit and notice the appliques - a very good distraction. If you are anal about the straps, forget about the dress.


The Closet Lover Kerry Romper in Blue (M)

This print is awesome! Reminded me of old 3D paintings where you had to cross your eyes to see the 3D images embedded within. Hahaha! The length was just nice for me, a little annoyance with the length of rise - I felt that it was a little too short for comfort as I am used to rompers having longer rises for more ease. Other than that, all aspects were good.



Intoxiquette Rainbow Poppies Garden Dress (M)

Awesome colours and fit! Lining was full and M was a perfect fit for me. Definitely brightens up your day if you had a busy day ahead. Colourful prints never, never fail to attract me.


F21 Peplum Top in Black (S) & Cotton On Monochrome Skirt in (M)

Like this look a lot - made me feel like I was out to do something serious - which I am, working (duh!).



Ohvola Dallas Stud Top in Black (M) & Core Women by Robinsons Floral Pants (12)

A fuss-free peplum top to counter my floral pants! Love the fit but some studs were falling off. Had to re-sew them on myself.



Her Velvet Vase Ari Embellished Dress in Cream (M)

Ohvola Olie Tea Frock in Crème (L)

Decided L and glad that I did because the waist area was just nice for me. I do feel that the dress is a little on the short side; would be better for petite girls. Other than that, prints are perfect too!


Zara Tube Top in Black (M) & Love, Bonito Eiffel Pants in Green (L) - altered

Her Velvet Vase Hollywood Glamour Dress in White (M) & Love, Bonito Brique Blazer in Green (M)

Intoxiquette Pearl Dress in White

Taobao Graphic Print Dress (12)

Love, Bonito Carter Corset in White (L), Miranda Skirt in Hot Pink (L) & Taobao Cardigan in Purple

Love, Bonito Taffie Top in White (L) & Temt Peplum Skirt (M)

Love, Bonito Preston Top in Cobalt (M) & F21 Shorts in Black (L)

Alright, that's all for my mish-mash outfits for the past three months! Do feel free to drop me an email if you've got more questions to ask about the sizing and fit! I'm too lazy to note all details but I will try to answer all questions! :D

Till the next, :)

Massive OFTDs!

Inclusive of ROM and CNY outfits!


Cotton Tee from Uniqlo (M) & Pinafore Dress from Bangkok

Love all my basics from Uniqlo. I tend to prefer ribbed cotton tees over lycra tees as I feel that they are more comfortable and absorbent in perspiration. Got a cutesy pinafore dress in Bangkok one year ago and only wore it one year later. Totally not my style! #evidencethatimpulsepurchasesexist


ASOS Embellished Dress in Peach (12)

Bought it without imagining it to be my solemnisation dress but turned out it fitted the theme perfectly! Needed a new dress without hurting my pocket too much so I turned to my wardrobe for rescue. Found this piece of gem, embellished with pearls at waistband area. Got it in UK 12 but I altered the waist to be more fitting. Material is stretchy and design is waved and bodycon. At a very pocket-friendly price of €19!



Love, Bonito Camelia Corset in Sunshine (L) & Topshop Tweed Skirt (10)

For one of the work days. The topshop tweed skirt is a very versatile piece that can be paired easily! Material is stretchy and I sized down for a more fitting sit on the waist.


Love, Bonito Dashielle Lace Top in Beryl (M) & Uniqlo Fitted Ankle Pants in White (67)

Always loved the Beryl / Mint + White combination so this comes as no surprise! Top is fully lined while outer layer is chiffon and lace. Very comfortable piece to wear during hot days! I swear by the ankle length pants from Uniqlo. Very slim cutting and thick material for white colour! I have the same pants in black and khaki as well!


Love, Bonito Taffie Top in Neon Green & F21 Leather Strip Pencil Skirt (M)

No more reviews need on the Taffie Top, I think it's reviewed to death. As for the F21 skirt, the material is thick and mad stretchy! Anyone thinking of a good work pencil skirt with a little twist to the normal designs, please hunt this down!!


Love, Bonito Camelia Corset in White (L) & Robinsons Core Women Floral Pants (12)

CNY Day One outfit! Decided to wear pants for a change this year instead of the usual dresses. Love love love the pants! Retailing at $79 but I had $60 worth of vouchers so I paid $19 for it. Material is satin-like but does not seem to snag easily. Very vibrant prints!


Love, Bonito Waverly Dress (M)

CNY Day Two outfit! Bought this off a reseller and I must say it's really an outstanding piece. I thought cut-in designs wouldn't suit broad shoulders like mine but it didn't turn out to be so bad after all. Got it in M, very courageous of me. Love the cutting of the waist which accentuates curves!


Smooch Camilla & Belle Dress in Black (M)

The moment I saw the preview, I fell in love with this dress! Was considering between Black or White but figured that I preferred Black. Okay, I revise. I was actually considering ALL colours. M fitted me perfectly. Not too tight for hips but the odd strap needs some getting used to - tends to fall off my shoulder but the appliques made up for the mafan-ness!


Zara Basic Tank in White (M) & ASOS Petite Winter Floral Pants (12)

Flight wear! The Zara tank top needs no introduction. If you don't have it.. well go get it! The pair of floral pants is a wonderful addition to my collection. Reminds me of erm.. winter holidays when I look at it. Makes sense? Sizing wise, got it in 12 as it is from the Petite collection but it definitely felt like I could fit in 10. Stretchy and thick enough for weather ranging around 18-24 degrees.


Amber Avenue Floral Toga Dress

Perfect dress for summer but I am not a big fan of hi-low dresses. Got it during a flash sale and wore it for the first time =/ Impulse purchase, yes, but I'm taking a liking to the colours splash!


Love, Bonito Taffie Top in Black (L) & Temt Floral Peplum Skirt (M)

Just want to share this brand from Perth to all! Temt is this really affordable brand that I discovered during my past few visits to Perth and some of their knitwear or dresses are priced at AUD$14.95! Coming from a country where shopping is errrrrr, unexciting. The floral peplum skirt is made of thick quality fabric! Do visit them if you are in Australia!


G2000 Work Shirt (40) & Robinsons Core Women Floral Pants (12)

See above review for pants!


Lace Peplum Tube Top & Uniqlo Fitted Ankle Pants in Black (70)

Found a nice shop in Far East Plaza Level three selling pretty cute apparels and got the lace peplum tube top for $25.90! Comes with anti-slips at bust and hidden backzip. Remember what I said about the Uniqlo Ankle Pants? Yeap these are the black ones and they are a size bigger than the white ones I have. Have also asked my mum to taper the legs of the pants as I've lost weight and would like them to be more fitting for a slimmer silhouette.


F21 Chain Dress in Black (M)

A very normal design for work! M runs big and this was taken before my mum nipped in the waist for me. Size down if you are ordering! Material is heavy and sturdy and does not crumple. So far, metal parts have not rusted after washing.


Temt Knit Dress in Burgundy (L)

Another AUD$14.95 score! Got it in Forest too. Hee. Three-quarters sleeves and ends at a nice length for work!


F21 Cape Top in Cream (M) & Smooch Pearlesque Velvet Skirt in (M)

Mad love the skirt! Looks really luxe with the pearls and fake diamantes embellishments alongside with the velvet material. Very heavy piece with intricate details! I'm having mindblocks about matching them though..


Love, Bonito Hanley Crochet Top in Beryl (M) & Miranda Skirt in White (L)

This top may look matronly because of the crochet details but I still love it nonetheless. Fully lined with a size zip. Material used is sturdy and does not fur.


Victoria's Secret Tube Dress in Red

Super super super old VS dress. Who still buys overpriced clothes from Victoria's Secret when there are so many blogshops around?


Zara Ruched Sleeved Top in Black (M) & ASOS Petite Floral Pants (12)

Shall not comment much on the overworn Ruched Sleeved Top from Zara. Please buy the pants! The prints are really lovely and colourful! You will definitely like it if you love colours like me! Fit slightly runs big and you may choose to size down if you are confident. Take note that length ends at ankle, not sole.


Her Velvet Vase Floral Denim Bustier Dress in Light Blue (L)

An old piece from HVV. Lost weight hence this piece isn't as fitting as before! Good for a casual day out!

Aaaah, overdose from OFTDs yet? Hahaha! Thanks for checking back every other day, y'all!

Till the next! :)
