Work It Out in Style - LOLEWOMEN.COM

Happy Monday to all of you,

Now that Spring is here and Summer is just around the corner, I bet many of you are back to your workout regimes and getting geared up for those bikini wearing days to come.

As much as the concept of healthy living and maintaining a healthy lifestyle including working out is concern, of course it's nothing new and should be practised all year round. However lately I have noticed much more emphasis by retailers focusing on active wear, with many active gear stores popping up like wildfire in the malls. H&M, Cotton On and Forever 21 known for retailing trendy fashion forward and stylish clothing, all now have activewear standalone stores or divisions aiming to reach out to this new market segment of health conscious women who wish to look good and stylish whilst working out. No more dowdy old sweats and grey outfits!

So I am sure you will be tickled pink with this label I just discovered - LOLEWOMEN.com. In line with their motto of Living It Loud,  they have such unique pieces and funky active wear gear that will certainly get you  to be the talk of the yoga or pilates class next!






To be fashion forward, I hate to get out and about in my workout outfits but yet often find myself with little time after any workout to shower, do my hair and be ready for my next appointment. Or even simply to rush from gym to pick up my child from school. So when I discovered Lolewomen.com, their products appealed to me as they were funky and had a unique style where you could run around town in your workout gear without feeling you had to change into something else after your workout. Definitely felt it was a must-share with my readers and followers.

Their active wear items are perfect for various activities. From Yoga/Pilates to Running/ Fitness. From Lifestyle/Travel to the Beach, and Skiing/Snowboarding. You name it, they got it! From clothing items to accessories. What's more ( this is the best part) a range of sizes from XS - XL. Not to mention various colour options for most of their items.

Kyra Tank

Alpine Bra
Doreen Leggings // Sierra Leggings
Leggings - a must have item in every workout wardrobe, here you will find so many coloured options and variations of leggings to choose from. With their quick dry, moisture transport and 4 way stretch design - these leggings certainly will have you coming back for more!

No time to shower or get changed? Throw on these fabulous tops or dresses or accessories over your workout gear, a quick spritz of deodorant or perfume and you are ready to rock n roll!
Tonya Sweater
Jacey Dress

Marina Dress

Elitia Scarf
Now drum roll please...... Of all their items, this is my favourite as it's a 3-in-1 jacket which you can play around so much with. Especially when the weather gets crazy hot one minute,  then you enter malls that have air condition blasting cold you can almost imagine snowflakes falling from the ceiling.

LOOK 1
Sway 3-in-1 Reflective Jacket

LOOK 2
Sway 3-in-1 Reflective Jacket ( Vest)

LOOK 3
Sway 3-in-1 Reflective Jacket ( short crop)
I love that this Sway jacket which comprises of 2 pieces, can be combined as a long jacket for a perfect coverup for cooler mornings and cold malls. Take off the outer layer, and you have a vest which can double up as a top worn over your yoga bralet to run about doing your errands. And finally, throw on the outer short crop jacket without the vest and you got a cool funky crop top style outfit for those hotter summer days. Available also in black and pink.

With FREE SHIPPING within Canada and Continental USA, hurry and grab your favourite workout gear NOW from Lolewomen.com. Not forgetting - if you sign up now for their newsletter you will receive a 15% discount for all first time buyers!

Have fun trending these cool and stylish items and do leave me a comment below to let me know which is your favourite item? Stay healthy and trendy!

Grecian Goddess :: Must Have Spring Dress Trend + Halo Hair Band

Hey there,

A nice wrap up to the end of another week. Had back to back giveaways happening this week of which the last of a series of 4 giveaways was launched over the March - April 2016 period. Please go check them out in my earlier posts as there is still time to log in your entries till 12 April 2016.

Here's a look I had put together recently and I must say, its indeed a pity that the Australian based accessory boutique - LOVISA, is not available here in Hong Kong. However,whenever I do head back to Singapore, I would go crazy in their store for all their items are just so pretty and unique.

Got this unique hair band a while back and it was a nice twist to pair with this outfit.



This mustard coloured shift style sleeveless dress from H&M in jacquard material is one of my favourite dresses in my closet over the last year. The ease and comfort of wearing shift dresses makes it a Spring/ Summer MUST HAVE . Besides that it does not wrinkle or crease too much also makes this a perfect outfit to take out on trips or holidays.


Pair it with heels ( in this case - Gladiator style heels) and you got an evening outfit put together. Or wear it casual with slip on sandals and you can shop comfortably in it during the day.



Picked up this lovely hair band from LOVISA where you can style it 2 ways. The first, as you can see is how I had styled it with this outfit,  and the second is to bring the leaf chain over to the front and across the forehead ( similar to an indian style kind of accessory) and voila... you get a different look altogether!



Keeping in line with a " Grecian Goddess" theme, I paired the dress with a simple fringe gold necklace and kept all other accessories simple and minimal.



Most of you would realise that I often refer " getting the look for less" from my favourite online store - Shein.com. Why not check out their Awesome deals right now and shop their range of shift dresses to trend this Spring/ Summer 2016! At great dealsof 40- 45% off, getting a couple certainly will not burn a hole in your pocket to look trendy and stylish this Summer.

Cold Shoulder :: Off Shoulder Top + Boho Necklace

Hi everyone,


Thanks for visiting and leaving those lovely comments on my blog posts. Indeed it's always nice to hear from my readers on what interest them and how my style have inspired them. Keep them coming and do know it's deeply appreciated even if I have  not had the time to reply to them individually.

Seeing old trends being revived this Spring/ Summer 2016, and with off shoulder tops being all the hit again this Spring/ Summer, here is the first of my Spring posts trending shorts, off shoulder tops and many others to come .....




The trick to finding the right off shoulder top is to ensure that it is not necessarily gartered all the way around. Best to have the front of the top ( bustline) without garters, therefore this will prevent the top from riding up and off your shoulders.



This lovely top from Shein.com appealed to me because unlike regular off shoulder tops, it had the pretty detail of a full sleeve and a knotted bow at the sleeves. Check out this blouse in various colour options below or click here to view in browser.





Paired this lovely blouse this time with my coral coloured shorts to beat the hot weather and matched it perfectly with my lovely Sam Edelman sandals. Perfect!!



To bring out the bright cheery feel to this whole look, accessorised with this lovely multi coloured wooden bead, crochet necklace. Time to rock N roll!

I just love off shoulder tops and you will see me highlight several more throughout spring/ summer 2016. Don't forget to click on the pictures above to see the various options and styles available on shein.com for off shoulder tops!
