Bag

Hi guys! =)

How are all your countries' Olympians doing? Tristan and I just finished watching the women's single table tennis semi-final match between Singapore's Feng Tianwei and world's top seed China's Ding Ning. I'm very humbled and awed by Feng's fighting spirit. This is one girl who never says die.

Today's outift is one of my favourite lazy ones! Hahaha! A romper is a woman's best friend when she is feeling lazy, uninspired or during that time of the month. I particularly adore the details on this textured grey romper! Ruffles, a high neck, folds at the chest area and ribboned pockets. =) The tailor did a great job on this baby! Had the ribboned pockets been anymore obvious, it would have been overkill imo. =X

Gotta go shower.. Early day tomorrow! Talk to you all again real soon and have a great Wednesday! 

xoxo  ^ o ^/

Dottie Nautical







Dress
Old (most probably from Bangkok, Thailand)
Heels
Aldo
Bag
Kate Spade (Love the contrasting red interior that works so well with the navy blue of the bag!) =)


Hi Everyone! =D

I hope you all had a brilliant Saturday! =)

News flash! www.theclassyfied.blogspot.com is now www.theclassyfied.com! =D The sweetest Daddy in the world bought my dot com for me as an encouragement!! I must have done like a trillion VERY good deeds in my past life to deserve my parents. *solemn*

I dug out this dress, spruced it up with pretty red stilettos and found a bag I haven't used in ages for today's look. It was fuss-free but garnered quite a bit of compliments! =) Everyone seems to love the colour combination. Personally, I love red shoes, simply because they dress up just about any simple dress, top or suit!

Today also marks the 7th year 5th month that Tristan and I have been together. I'm so blessed to have him in my life. <3

Enjoy your Sundays tomorrow! ^ -  ^* /

A Checked Bag

Shorts
BLU from F.O.S (Genting, Malaysia)
Shoes

Bag
Burberry
Bear
The bff's wedding favour! <3


Hello everyone!

Phew! Today was a tired tired tired day BUT it was a good and happy day! =D Love the teamwork and effort we all put into the event today and everything went great! Thank you, God. <3

Today's outfit featured one of my favourite top and bag of all times. I have ALWAYS loved the beauty of the Burberry Nova Check bags simply because I can wear really basic colours, tote the bag and inject that bit of colour into my outfit. The top/ blouse is a piece that will look good teamed with a pencil skirt, slim fit jeans or pants, a skater skirt or just shorts. The pleat detail on the blouse is to die for! I also love the bustier-like design at the chest, the mini peplum and the bow tie at the back! =)

I remember when I first saw the blouse, it was in blue and on my Mom. It was love at first sight. I asked if she got a another piece for me and she said no. =( Thing is, my Mom does not believe in wearing the same clothes as me or my sis. Anyway, I guess she could tell that I really loved it, so the next time we headed to Aunty Lauren's shop (Mee Seng Hang), she bought it for me (albeit in a different colour)! =D I love my Mommy!


TGIF!! And I'm finally OFF! Talk soon! ^ -  ^*

Hello everyone! =D

I hope every one of you is having a smooth day! Work was especially exhausting for us today with the event coming up tomorrow but I actually felt happy being that busy! =)

Today's outfit was cheerful, very light and comfortable! Singapore IS humid these days and did I mention I sweat ALOT? I have to add that I love those wedges and I kind of regret not getting those exact same wedges in a combination of reds and beiges too. I have that problem. Getting the same design in clothes & shoes but in several different colours (sometimes in ALL the colors available)!

I'm very very sure that I'm not the only girl who gets different colours in the same design of clothes and shoes that I adore. Are YOU like that too? =D

Hi everyone! I hope you are all having a great week! =)

It's going to be a very exhausting week at work for the lot of us so QQ and I made the most of our off day today by going for some shopping, good food and a much needed haircut(me). I wanted something easy to move around and comfortable enough for us to shop for several hours, but I also wanted some colours! Red always brighten up my outfits and I decided to pair the stripes with a little classic monogram to give it slight vintage feel (to me at least!). =P

I'm going to be working this weekend. Bummer. So... today became the day my face got its weekly off day from all the cosmetics I pile on it daily. Does that explain the messy hair and the sunglasses now? Hahahaha!

We had the best meal today in like forever! Authentic Thai food. =D  I'm hungry again just thinking about it!

Have an awesome day tomorrow!! ^ -  ^ /

Splashes of Khaki








Top
Present from Mommy =)
Jeans
Veeko (Hong Kong)
Shoes
Summit (Malaysia, JB), Loving the unique touches of khaki amidst the spots! ^ -  ^ b
Bag
Marc by Marc Jacobs Preppy Leather Hayley Tote (Love the leather. Lightweight and squishy!)
Sunglasses
Chloe
Earrings
Lucky Clovers


Today's outfit was simple but I didn't want anything too boring... So I opted for leopard printed heels and other splashes of khaki in my bag and sunglasses! I also added fun dangly earrings in the the shape of 4-leaf clovers! =)

Living in hot and humid Singapore means that I can't do much layering, wear pretty berets or knee-high boots like other fashion bloggers that I love visiting. Frankly, I don't care for the strange looks I'll get but I sweat waaayyyyyy too easily and that makes me look unglam. LOL.

But... that does NOT mean I can't add some personal touches or colours to my daily outfits! Afterall, there has got to be some perks living in a country with Summer all round.  ^ -  ^ /  I could just live in shorts and wear bright colours all year round!

Bag
Prada Saffiano Lux tote - SGD2910
Shoes
Zara (recent sales!) - SGD59.90 (was SGD89.90)

I have always loved houndstooth prints, especially on dresses and tops! This Autumn/ Winter sees the return of houndstooth, herringbone, checks and several other prints. 

Therefore, today's look of the day(LOTD) showcases a classic black and white outfit with a shot of red to brighten up the entire look. It was easy, comfortable and classic! I have had this dress for over 5 years and it is still serving me well. 12 bucks. What more can I ask for?   ^ .  ^ b

These black pants have got to be my favourite! The style is beautiful, classic yet trendy. If there is one piece of clothing a girl should invest in, it has to be quality bottoms!
