The last day of 2018 yet just 6 days into the 12 days of Christmas, we prepare to welcome 2019 with a big bang!
Have you made your new year resolutions yet? If you have been following me closely in my blog, you will have realised 2018 has been such a difficult year for me, and so I truly can't wait for the turn of the clock and turn of the luck for me in 2019.
This beautiful dress by Australian Designer - Elliat was a perfect choice to ring in the festive season. Theatrical, dramatic , whimsical even but with a ladylike touch. I love how this dress flows on me, and the high collar is such a throwback to Elizabethan times where it resonates the feeling of pomp and glamour.
I love the lace bodice of this dress and the slim cut that fans out to a mermaid tale. Wore it without the off shoulder lace sleeves, letting it hang under the arm instead of on the arm. Felt it flattered me more worn this way.
Hoping 2019 will bring me this whimsical and fantasy world with only happy dreams and tales, I wish all of you a great countdown to the festivities for the New Year and wishing you all a healthy and successful 2019!!
Love,

The first of the festive looks for the season. Trolling through Instagram, many influencers are posting Christmas looks all bundled up in their winter wear and nice overcoats. However some of us are spending Christmas either in the tropics or in the south where we are hit with hottest of summers or the rainy monsoon season.
So here's a take on Christmas in the tropics with an outfit inspiration to draw on that festive Christmas mood, yet cool enough for the warmer, humid weather.
I love this beautiful tiered layered skirt from Haute Rogue, available on Style Theory, SG. The tiered layers certainly reminds me much of a Christmas tree and it definitely brings on that element of festivity to the outfit. Pairing it with a red top seals the deal on a Christmas inspired outfit. Simply love this combination of red and grey.
The neoprene material of the skirt helps keep the shape and to be honest it is not an easy skirt to pull off if you are not one to be daring in your style as it certainly makes one stand out in the crowd.
For those out in colder climates, this skirt rock this look with a twist on pairings e.g pair it with a red turtle neck, beautiful grey overcoat, knee high grey boots and a stylish beret! Oh how I wish I could deck myself out for the cold climate to showcase 2 styles you can trend with this inspiration.
Meanwhile, enjoy!!
