Jackets Galore (on sale!) at Arden B.

Saw some fabulous jackets under $100 today at Arden B. and there is a buy one get one 50% off right now. How very tempting.

I have organized my faves according to trends...

Military Jackets
(great with dresses, skinny pants, and/or thigh-high boots)

Why get a normal trench when you can get a military trench coat? It gives you that much more edge and fashion-forwardness! And if a jacket can give a woman the airs of that much power and confidence, then why the hell not?

$88/$78/$58 respectively

Faux Fur Vest/Jacket
(great layering piece to transition into Fall/Winter, great for updating a basic wardrobe)

Let the faux fur speak for itself.

$98/$88 respectively

Moto Jacket - a.k.a. motorcycle jacket
(great for balancing out feminine elements in the outfit)

The metallic moto jacket will go so well with a metallic sequin party dress and killer bling stilettos. And I fantasize Megan Fox in the black moto jacket on her Transformer motorcycle and nothing else inside the jacket. SEXY~~~

$58/$58

Blazers
(Great for pretty much everything)

Sequins and studs are on-trend details that practically makes an outfit. I love the sequined jacket and its incredible price. It puts my Zara Basic boyfriend blazer to shame. The tuxedo blazer is a crop jacket that is sleek enough to make your outfit glamorous and so-very-chic.

$58/$88/$88 respectively

Gilty Ranjana Khan Necklaces

I'm back! Perhaps it's rejuvenation from being back with my beau in LA, or the approach of my favorite holiday/birthday, Halloween. I'm finally back in shopping mode. I'll take pictures of my spoils and post them soon enough, and you will be jealous, I promise you!

In any case, while I bought yet again from ideeli (a pretty dress for a friend's birthday present), I am feeling all sorts of lust over these incredible costume jewelry from Gilt. Of course, they are incredibly unaffordable for someone like me who isn't pulling in income.

Ranjana Khan Black Bead Lace Necklace $532 (Was: $1,065)

My favorite is this black silk charmeuse cord necklace that jumped out and grabbed me by all my goth fantasies. The necklace has three row scalloped bib with black plastic and glass bead drops. Sounds so simple, yet it's so wonderfully theatrical and gothic. It strikes my heart so fatally with its similarity to a manga/anime that I absolutely love: xxxHolic.

There are other necklaces I liked too, also from Ranjana Khan...who is Naeem Khan's wife, by the way. They are a perfect team together!

Usually, these statement pieces of jewelry would be paired with other items that are relatively simple, such as a dress, a blazer, basic separates, which makes the outfit wearable for everyday. But judging from my colorful hobby of watching manga/anime/cosplay, I continue to dream of a studio that would be stocked full of these paired with extreme dresses (full bodied Victorian and decadent Baroque styles). Of course, with no occasions to go all out and a culture that is so obsessed with not overdressing, this is impractical and will remain in the realms of dreams.

LV Sensual Pump with LV signature golden sole

I apologise for not updating. I dropped off the face of the earth in order to spend time with my grandma on my mom's side in Surabaya (she had a stroke years ago and isn't doing that well physically), and I stayed at my aunt's place where there was no easy internet access.

Once I'm back in Singapore, I took my granny on my dad's side to ION, the newest shopping mall on Orchard road and there I saw Diane Von Furstenberg, Ms. DvF herself, getting interviewed at her new store opening. I wanted to go in and tell her how wonderful her designs are and to take a picture, but I didn't bring my camera (sob). Anyway, this Twitpic was just posted to LV's Twitter account and I thought it was share-worthy.

Of note, the Sensual Pump featured in this gorgeous picture comes with LV's signature golden sole. Hot, isn't it?!?? The golden sole is compelling enough to go up against Louboutin's red soles. However, I would have preferred it if the front was more rounded to give more room for our toes and also, if the golden sole didn't just stop halfway down the shoe (a rather abrupt and indecisive design, don't you think?). What do you reckon?
