Hello! Sorry for this late post! We were super zonked yesterday (sunday). And today we were up to our necks in packing, then the queue at the PO proved to ridonkulously sloooooow and we were an hour late to dinner with our friends ):

But anyhoo, thanks for your support babes! Here are some rather overdue picks by us from the new collection and a few behind the scenes of the photoshoot. And I mean VERY FEW, 'cause most of the time we were rushing back and forth and shivering in fear whilst doing so. HAHA. More on that later.

PICKS!!!

This dress makes me feel like tying my hair up with a scarf, donning Jackie O sunnies and sashaying down a street lined with brick roofed shophouses. FABULOUS.

What can I say about this. NOTHING JUST LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!! Fits like a dreeeeeam and so so so gorgeous. BIG LOOOOOVE.

There's just something about vintage pieces that makes them so perfect. The attention to detail, like the thin accordion pleats on the first dress and the lovely drapes down the front of the second, and the beauuuutiful fabric. <3

This dress is so fantabulous HONESTLY. It has to be the most flattering thing out there! The slightly puffed sleeves disguises less than toned arms, the V-neck piping elongates the body without being too low, the waist cinches in just right and works with the A-line skirt to create that hourglass figure. PERFECT OR WHAT!!! I'm keeping one. Hahaha.

Two tops that we are kicking ourselves for not getting more of ): Why didn't we OH WHYYYY!!! Sorry babes, no restocks or BOs for this. Very very sadly.

And this BEYOND LOVELY Chloé inspired scalloped skirt! Specially manufactured by our supplier, it is made of this awesome quality chiffon (a little textured and not flimsy at all) and is made to look as close to the original as possible. SO PRETTY!!! And the last piece of the cream top in this pic has become available! Due to partial deadbuying. *grumbles*

Behind the Scenes!

Model Livia (my cousin) during some test shots before the shoot. She might kill me for putting this up. Hopefully she doesn't read this blog.

Decided to include the second pic as well. To even out the effect of the first pic. Hahaha.

Yans trying to position the bag aka stopping it from toppling over. Oh, and I forgot to include this gorgeous bag in our picks! The soft material and the suuuuuper fabulous rose hue is TODIEFOR. PICKPICKPICK!!!

Disclaimer: Bag isn't actually duffel bag size. Model is just tiny, horizontal wise. When we saw the pics we were like, Is the bag THAT big??? Then we realized it's just her. Hahaha.

Me adjusting Livia's belt. Throughout the shoot I kept asking, Where's the black woven belt??? and Where is the belt ah? and We need a belt for this! Where did we put it? and Did you see the thin black belt? Hmm, I think we need a belt hanger of sorts.

Apologies for the weird blue. It came out like this and we are not sure why. We photoshopped all photos of this piece for the shop to make it look like the original colour so the one on the site is the ORIGINAL COLOUR. I'm too lazy to do this one. Hahaha.

Anw, my point for putting this up is that she's trying very hard to not break out in laughter.

Why? you may ask. Cause at that time Yans and I were huddled together comically with a crazy frightened expression on our face (which I'm quite sure reflected how we really felt at that time).

You see, the studio accidentally overlapped our timeslots with that of the next booking so it was like this:
Our slot - 7pm-9pm, their slot - 8pm-10pm

The thing is the next booking didn't know about this and was understandably pissed that they had to wait for an hour as they thought we overshot our slot by an hour.

And they came up to the studio while we were taking shots of this shirt to ask how long more we were going to take. The pissed off aura that was emitted was SO SCARY WE SWEAR. I didn't even dare to go adjust Liv's belt which was looking odd 'cause I was so afraid I'd get glared at. Like take so long already still GO AND ADJUST. After that Yans and I kept saying, Okay, done, just go go go! Next Next Next!!! Change faster! Hahaha. Poor Livia.

Alright! This turned out to be a rather long post. About nothing much. Hahaha. We hope you enjoyed our collection as much as we did picking stuff out! If all goes well, we should be launching this weekend! Need to start getting stocks among other things. Heh. Have a great weeeeeeek!!! (:
