Double woot!

I've been a bad bad blogger. So much has happened that I felt overwhelmed. Recently I have been very much inspired but the people of which I wish to consult with are either stangers to me or...are dead. My inspiration came from a muse, a very talented one. But I shall not speak of him yet until I've sorted out my feelings.

Though busy with work I've mustered up some courage to undertake some more serious fashion shots.
Here they are, of my recent retail therapy. Comments on the clothes and pictures are very much welcomed.

"I have an addiction, but it's not a problem" is a quote from House which applies to my love for online shopping. Recently I've discovered a new online shop which caters to my more refined taste and modest walet size. 

This is one of my all time favourite dress. At first glance it looks familiar non? That's because this little number was inspired by a dress Kate Middleton wore to meet the Obamas. From the front I love how the fabric overlays the tummy in a disappearing act.


Here is the money shot. Yes, I have a bum and I love it! Teddy Ben approves smugly. Flaunt what you've got I always say. And this dress does just that.

I like the quiet sensuality this dress exudes. I could dress it up for office, it would fit in nicely for a cocktail or high tea session with the gals and at night I could let my hair down and dance the night away.

Regarding the picture, I won't go into technicalities because well, I can't but what I can say is that I like how the light is hitting my face and the highlight of the front of my body I feel adds to the drama on the back. Proportion is nice but sadly my hands were off the frames. 

Posing wise, like Tyra always says "find the light" and model H2T: Head to toe and add that little bootie tooch when it's a behind shot.

Secretly I long to direct a shoot. Sort of like Mr Jay of ANTM. But I'm no where near his level and I'm not even properly educated in the fashion industry. But what I do know is that I have a certain taste which I need to polish and developed.



Next is a cute little number. Match it with a cute cropped bolero and you are office ready. And look POCKETS! I don't know about you but I love pockets. I hadn't know about it until the 1st time I took it off and saw the lining inside. Yes, from the outside it is stealthily hidden. Perfect for concealing items when in a pinch. Love the warm colours and well placed horrizontal lines play up the bust area while the hips play a more demure colour, perfect for my pear body shape.

New Camera location and angle. The body ratio of the first picture is a little off, my legs seems a little stumpy and I didn't play with the light. Where as the second picture is not as focused as I would have liked it. Would have preferred more neck on both.


The shop if you are interested is called Double Woot.
Here are their links
SHOP
FACEBOOK


Each item was under RM90. I would say are in the mid rage price bracket. Not exactly cheap but much better quality and style. 

They consistently bring in new stock twice a week. Do follow their FB to get the updates. I simply love how they actually choose pieces and show you where the inspiration came from. 


Another reason why I'm showing so much love is the fact that their based in Butterworth! Which is just a stones throw away from me. I do hope I can visit them one day. Perhaps after a nice bonus?


Oh they ship internationally too! How awesome is that?

So there you have it. Just sharing a wonderful new blogshop. Lets give Double Woot...double woots!
WOOT WOOT!


P/S: According to Teddy Ben, this is my garang/fierce face that I occasionally flash at him. Is it really that fierce? ^^
