The long awaited.

I'm sorry I haven't been blogging as often as I should. 

But ah well, Sissy is finally done with her exams (pops champagne!) and I'm back to being an active 'blogger' once more.

Hehe. 

Couldn't have been happier!

Getting things back into full swing this week now that everyone's in 100% working mode.

Some OTDs to kick start my blog post...

Tribal Knit Top in black for a rainy day!
Love rainy days for the fact that I can wear knit tops without being roasted to death.
♥
Comes in white base version too!

Today coincidentally is a rainy day as well.
Did not foresee the rain so I wore the Basic Cotton Peplum Top out!
Good thing though, the sunny yellow brightens my mood even though it's a gloomy day.
:D
We're launching it in 5 colours!
White, Black, Heather Grey, Sunshine Yellow and Cobalt Blue.
Sounds yummy to me!

We're gonna be launching the 2 designs above tomorrow together with some accessories,
so set your alarm clocks for the launch if you like what you see!

And to make it up for not posting previews for the previous launch,
(which I wanted to badly because I really loved how the photos turned out)
I shall post the accessories preview here!

Bronzed Plated Necklace.


My favourite out all all so I think it deserves another picture!
:)))


Waterfall Beaded Necklace in Green (left) and Blue (right).

We launched this earlier in the longer version..
Brought it back in the shorter version, 2 colours!
Kept the green (left)!
:)


Colour Medley Necklace.


Triangular Triumph Necklace.

Kept this as well!
Very easy to match this.
I'm obsessed with triangular shaped accessories!


Citrus Twist Necklace.


Athena Necklace in Yellow (left) and White (right).

Kept white!
:)


Dark Dreamcatcher Necklace.

Black Waterfall Necklace.

Kept this and wore this out earlier!
You can scroll down to view it in my previous blogpost.
:)


Double Loop Studded Cuff.

KEPT!


Single Loop Studded Cuff.

ALSO KEPT!


White Balen Cuff.


We also have one more knit top and a bucket bag in 2 colours coming up in the same collection!
A mini but rather exciting collection, heh.
No pictures for those yet because we're doing the photoshoot later tonight!
Will process and post the full preview on FB soon as I can.

We're also really close to shifting TTR to our dot com..
Can't wait for it to happen!
:)

Thoughts of the week. (And sneaks!)

Yet another week comes to an end. 

I find myself lamenting the lack of time and how fast time passes way too much sometimes.

But don't you feel this way sometimes too?

Had a really lucky photoshoot today in between bouts of thundery showers.
Still, we managed to finish (just) on time!
Photoshoots now feel like milestones to me.
Okay, maybe mini ones.

Feeling extra thankful this week for all the lovely people I'm working with now,

they never fail to give me the help I need.

♥ ♥ ♥

Also very grateful to be working with people who are so motivated.

It's really hard to find people working with the same level of passion as you if you own a business,

most people just want to get things over and done with.
I have this really strong sense of camaraderie with these awesome people...

So thank you girls (hehe TTR models included), really lucky to have you all!

We will be deviating slightly from our usual Sunday launch for this week.
Working on a concept which requires more editing!
And I thought it would be better if I could launch it next week instead to give it more time.
:)

So...
We'll be launching Accessories Galore II instead!


Some of the items I kept for myself.

Grecian Rainbow Necklace!
Wore it with a simple combination of the Racerfront Tank in Lemon Yellow and denim shorts.
But it somehow makes the outfit more outstanding.
:)
Love statement pieces like such for lazy dress down days!
Makes the outfit look less sloppy.

Outfit to work on one of the days this week.
Wore the Enid Blyton Cardigan over a H&M tube bustier and the gold buttons flare skirt which is upcoming!
:)
(Sorry for the unsightly creases on the skirt, hahah didn't have time to iron before I left the house!!)


Both rectangle face vintage watch and black bag will be for sale tomorrow!
:)
Big fan of vintage looking petite watches here!!
We have it in round face too if you're not a fan of rectangle watches.
;)

Love the bag too, suede in front, PU leather behind!
Roomy and spacious.
Carrying this for a few days in a row now!
Comes in Camel and Cambridge blue as well!


Also launching this boho chic necklace which I matched with the Chiffon Flare Pants in Peach previously!
So for those asking, don't miss the launch tomorrow!!
:)

If you want to see more pictures,
they're up on TTR's fb page!

Linked it for you if you're lazy to type in the url bar...
Now you've no more excuses.
Hahah.

Have a good weekend all!
May you have a lovely one!

Accessories Galore at TTR!

After going through 2 back-breaking, bone-aching days,

this was what we had for our photoshoot today!

:)

Life-sized Alice in Wonderland props.

Super duper happy about how it turned out.
Makes all the tiredness more than worth it!
Special mention goes to Linette who did the difficult parts, couldn't have done it without her.
A total gem, that girl! :)

There was another set but we didn't manage to capture the behind-the-scenes of that.

Check out our actual launch for more pictures?
Promise they won't disappoint!

Also a very heartfelt thanks to everyone at TTR!
The past week has been really toiling for me personally and I cannot be more thankful for all of you.
Mel, Dings, EP, Erica, Linette and of course my dearest Sissy.
You all are the silver lining in my cloud and I love you all to bits.

I'm been failing in taking OTD pictures this week.

How about a sneak preview for our special edition accessories launch tomorrow?

Since our customers have always been asking us where we got our accessories from,
I thought occasionally launching some accessories would be fun!


Spot the spelling mistake!
A corrected version will be up during the actual launch tomorrow.
LOL.




Mini floral sling bags for you?
Love the fabric so much that I just had to bring it in for TTR!
Cannot decide between creme and black yet.
I think this is the perfect 'bring around' bag for when you're overseas.
;)


Tassel necklaces!
They're so damn pretty to look at.


Confession:
I actually kept every single piece in this collection X 2.
One set for photoshoot, another set for my own.
Hahahaha.
Kiasu to the max please.


Some arm candy for you?
:)


And my ultimate favourite piece from the collection!
Wore it out today and posted on my instagram, @shoppingluvzme.
We brought this in for a giveaway and the response asking us to sell it on TTR was huge,
so there!
:)
Get yours from the launch tomorrow!


Goodnight everyone!
May tomorrow be even better than today.
:)

Elti.

Other than shoes,

one thing that I cannot resist when it comes to shopping is accessories.

I'm serious.

You should have seen my entire collection of accessories,

both at home and at the office!

I'll take a photo of everything next time so you can judge me for the shopaholic that I am.

Hahahaha.

It's so easy to spend on accessories.

They don't take up much space,

people don't judge you as much if you repeat accessories (as compared to clothes LOL),

and you can easily make any outfit look nicer by throwing on the right accessories.

;)

Liting, the sweet owner of an accessories shop approached me to do an advertorial for her because she noticed that I'm a huge fan of accessories.

And I didn't see myself as one until she told me so.

And then I realised, hey, I really have A LOT of accessories.

HAHAHA.

Accessories she sent me.
Plus a super endearing note for me!!!
I get really touched whenever I receive such notes through the mail,
be it from my advertisers or customers.
How rare is it to receive handwritten notes nowadays?
;)






The turquoise set of accessories which I requested for!
:D
So pretty!
And they go so well with each other!

Outfit of the day:
black cut in top (unreleased from TTR), random neon aztec skirt from FEP,
bag from Bricks and Bolsas (reviewed previously) and gold weaved flats from Dorothy Perkins.


I love this outfit so much.
Didn't want to get out of it at the end of the day.
♥

Outfit of the day:
Neon Glow Top in Lime, 
Treasure Chest Scallop Shorts in White, 
both from TTR.

:)




Get your accessories fix from Elti today!

Oh, and I haven't mentioned that they are really friendly for the pockets too!
I have set my eyes on the below 2 necklaces too...





And guess what!
Only $8 each!


I have something similar, and I remembered a few of you asked me where to get it.
You can get yours from them!!








Love these too.
I can never have enough of necklaces!


 GO BUY NOW NOW NOW.
SO AFFORDABLE PLEASE!!!

SHOP ELTI



Here's one last OTD before I head off to pack for my BKK trip!

I hate packing.
Hate unpacking even more.





My super cute Vivienne Westwood inspired cropped tee.
HEHEH.

BUHBYE!
