The Promise of Playful nights

You don't have to be naked to be sexy

--Nicole Kidman

And I am starting to have a sense of maybe it's true. Foreplay is definitely more erotic than actual sex itself. After all, our minds and imagination have no boundaries.

And to arouse, I think lingerie works best. It is somewhat modest but yet revealing, leaving lots of space for the mind to wander, fantasize and eventually explore. 

I am recently introduced to Playful Promises, and boy its name does suggest a lot of kinky, cheeky bedroom surprises and fun. Playful Promises is based in London with a wicked collection of flirty lingerie clothing, swimwear, hosiery and accessories! First fashioned by Emma Parker in 2004, Playful Promises is now one of my dream dress-up boudoir. 

Nipple pasties!!! I sort of flipped when I saw it. Haha! I think it is rare in Asia...or maybe not that rare just that I am a real nun. :(

Nonetheless, I still find the design intriguing and a nice nipple decor. :) So I thought, I just had to highlight this!!! Plus, it is at a humble price between 18-35 pounds. Definitely worth the money to add more sparks and variety into the bedroom activities!

And to those who are more conservative in nature. Here are some apparels that are really gorgeous. I have shortlisted the sheer bow blouse and kimono jackets. I really love the way the kimono jackets are paired with the corset! Strikingly stylish!

From Left to Right:

Playful Promises Black Chiffon Bow Blouse - 20.00
Embroidered Kimono Jacket - 20.00
Playful Promises Rorschach Kimono Jacket - 60.00

And finally, (drum rolls please) presenting my ultimate favourite piece!

The peach detail waspie! The lace, the colour, the details, it just makes me wanna go straight to the reveal just to flaunt this piece if it was on me.

I am not surprised if you are already clicking your way to Playful Promises. But, hey be nice and be kind, do save me a piece that I have just made known to you. I really like them you know!!! :P

The Evolution of the Luxury Watch

Today I shall play teacher and bring you people through a history lesson. Hopefully, you will leave this site feeling more educated, sophisticated and knowledgeable.

Watches tell us the time, but now we shall walk through time with the evolution of luxury watches. It is really interesting to know some trivial facts. You will soon know the first luxury watch, the top grossing branded watch brand, the most popular luxury watch brand and the most complicated timepieces.

THE EVOLUTION OF THE LUXURY WATCH

FROM: THE WATCH GALLERY

Personally, I really like Cartier and Omega. What differentiates luxury timepieces is their excellent craftsmanship and exceptional quality satisfying the need and desire for opulence as we transcend through time with age.

While our generation is moving towards checking time on our mobile phones, sometimes I feel it is really empowering to wear watches. Strapping time to your wrist, making sure every moment shall freeze in time with our memories. Beautiful isn't it?

Leaving you all with a quote on time:

The time is always right     To do what is right

Chi Chi Wishlist: You took my breath away

If you want rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain

Multi Coloured Strapless Panelled Bandage Dress (£112.99)

It has to be favourite because there is something so poetically tragic about this beautiful dress. The quote just makes the dress more inspirational, more than a piece to be admired in the wardrobe.

Man are from Mars, Woman are from Venus

Sleeveless Chiffon Sequin Skater Dress (£42.99)

I know for sure this dress is my style. The bold striking blue with the golden embellishments. It is a gorgeous piece.

Me: Ooo (eyes glistening with adoration)

BF: It is too loud. I don't like it :(

Chiffon Pleated Cocktail Dress (£34.99)

His perfect style for his lady. Sweet and demure, delicate so that he has a chance to shine and protect his little princess. 

Me: It is not me!

BF: At least it is your favourite pink :)

My stars can't shine without You

Chiffon Flower Diamante Strapless Maxi Dress (£39.99)

I think it is a nice evening gown for a wedding dinner or maybe a prom dance. Under the starry nights, it should be rather romantic to be the fallen star to brighten up your lover's light. 

**I am sorry for my unnaturally sappy words. I think I just took a whole bottle of love potion.  All apparels can be found at Chi Chi. Also, do join the wishlist contest hosted etailPR!

Chi Chi Stairway to Heaven

Creating a second runway of my wishlist is hard. I was really more or less running low on ideas. And there was a great deal of frilly dresses that interested me. So I decided to pick a theme, it was easier to shortlist a few out of a biziliion desired dresses.

Saw the Buddhist scriptures and was inspired by their bright vibrant background. And thus the stairway to heaven came about. Using models docked in delicate white apparels from Chi Chi, I attempted to create the illusion of angels descending to Earth - Angels on Earth.

For a boring black and white person, I think using coloured hearts as the runway and such a vibrant backdrop has definitely pushed me to my limits. Ok, now I am curious what I will dream up next. Lol. Have a good weekend everyone!

And here are the pieces used (L-R):

Chi Chi Ursulina Dress - 59.99
Chi Chi Florida Dress - 59.99
Chi Chi Estefana Dress - 46.99
Chi Chi Daria Dress - 49.99
Chi Chi Lola Dress - 39.99

Project Runway: Lashes of London

Ever envisioned a runway?

This will how my runway look, using apparels in my wishlist from Lashes of London.

The runway looks pretty good, don't you think? It was my old school project drawing.

I will probably design another next time when I am feeling arty. =)

Fashion Collage: Dress For Hire

You know something, I think it is really hard to dress stylishly for work or a work interview. 

Yes, I am at an age I have to dress with some class and professionalism and prepare myself for the corporate world.

Here's an outfit I came up with from ASOS website and Marc. b products, kindly advise if it is appropriate. =D

From left to right (in pounds):

Missguided Contrast Tux Blazer (29.99): I love blazers. They usually add immediate sophistication to a simple outfit. And this blazer is rather unique, don't you think? It has a duo tone, upping the style factor.

Urban Outfitters Spike Top Knot Holder (6.00): Just to bring out the quirky side. 

ASOS Tailored Shorts (9.00): I thought skirts were getting a little boring in an interview room. Just give the HR some novelty without depriving them of some sexy long legs. Haha

Triumph Esscence Glamourous Corselette (49.50): Out of stock at present. Hah. What great taste I have. I thought the blue was stunningly gorgeous. It would definitely look sexy wearing it inside the blazer without over-revealing. I call this an air of mystery.

Carvela Adrianna Platform Peep Toe (84.00): I know black heels are rather boring. But I love this pair for its classic design. Simple yet elegant.

Lola Metallic Navy (20.00): This was a hard decision between Angel Black Snake. I settled for this because I thought the outfit had too much element of black (The Chinese don't really like the colour black that much.) And so I picked a nice blue which will stand out and also maybe highlight my corselette which is of a similar shade.

Yea, so will you hire a young, charming lady like me? Found this photo taken 2 years ago? Ahhhh, I think I was prettier then. Aging Sux. =(

On a side note, do a collage too. Details here. You may just bring home some nice goodies to flood your wardrobe. Hehe.
