Chula Dresses

This is a Saturday, one particular Saturday I just have to stay home because:

1. I don't feel well lately, having a horrible sore throat. I am rather a non-med person, but hey two spoons of cough syrup help already! 

2. Due to some trip plans its time for *wait for it* budget cutting. YAY! 

Seeing it from the bright side:: I can do some researches for the trips!

For the Vietnam trip, I have made some rough itinerary on which Bernice (my future trip buddy from the Philippines) laughed at and she said she would make the itinerary. So then this morning she emailed me a list of things she wants to do, which mostly are about none other than... yes gents, SHOPPING. I have a feeling I have to bring folded chair, Rollerblades and counterpain for my feet. I can't stand hours of shopping, my method is: "think of what you need, look around, get whatever you need or interested in, get out". 

Anyway, on her list Bernice has this Chula Fashion Showroom, which caught my attention. The google search brought me to their website, fabulous collection. I will just post some that I like the most, to show you a bit of my taste :) 

The first two are my fave! They have catchy names too, recycled bride!  
So gonna check their showroom when I get to Ha Noi and hopefully try these dresses on! If they're wicked expensive I hope I won't fall in love with them. I have horrible weak spot for dresses.

Now I think I need a tighter budget cutting, darn haha. Anyway, during the writing of this post, Eddie asks me to go to the beach... so ciao, to the beach I go. 

Cocktail Dress by Nichole Bakti

A piece of work by Nichole Bakti cocktail dresses, which give you the touch of sexiness and elegance. I really fancy the white one, the sophisticated accent on the shoulder and back. Thank goodness I won't ever have to attend cocktail parties that I do not have to push myself to contemplate whether or not to get one of those hehe. 

Finally RED

Failed to get red dress at the thrift store, now I found the ONE at J.Rep for $15 (50% off)
As far as I can recall I only have one red tshirt and this is my very first red dress ^-^d

My, not 27 yet, Dresses

Black dress with gray-ish flower and white jacket

Not a clear one I know, I bought the black version of this dress for office party for $17 

Lace on top dress, which I tried but didnt buy for the office party :P 

On my effort to look retro a $18 dress, I chose this color than dark blue one. Good choice?

The gray top, I love gray, I bought at Pasar Pagi (Morning Market) for $8 and I mix it with gray cardigans by Rodeo $20ish 

Another gray working dress I bought for $10 no brand, but absolutely great with simple design. 

The same gray dress worn to work outdoor :) 

Balinese Batik top, a gift from a friend. Halter neck thigh length. 

This one is getting shorter and hard to wear when I ride motorbike so these days I tuck it into my black jeans and wear it as top, still love it. I bought it at a local thrift store :)
