YUNI - FEATURED FRIEND

Salam!

Yuni is in lime green!

She wore this for her brother's reception ceremony.

She wore silk at the bottom and chifffon silk at the top.

In her words : "I wore it because it feels comfortable n simple n yet sexy n glamorous. N the theme and the setup for the ceremony pon relax n simple. :D "

Tips :

I say always be comfortable in whatever you wear, escpecially during events! I think most hijabis can pull off the pario bottom (someone got to teach me how to tie it nicely like yunie!). Chiffons are also naturally transparent so make sure make sure you wear something to cover yourself under the chiffon.

Yuni's attire reminds me of lemon meringue! YUM!

rubyred

Salam!

I wore this to Malam Gemilang once, and I think the picture looks amazing (I probably should promote the amazing photographer(s) here and ask for their permission but they're nice so they wont bite :) Future! I'll make them take moreeee )


I wore :

1. Traditional ruby red kebaya, with laced top and satin bottom.
2. White pearls (note : we need long ones)
3. My love, the heels, Stuart Weitzman ruby red collection.

Tips :
At formal dinners, get away with wearing pearls! For cheaper options, there are knock offs at shopping centres. Mikimotos are expensive. Habib too. (I know they're pretty!). Sabah and Phillipine pearls are authentic and good for money!

I saw a brownish cream pearl once. Oogled over it for the longest time.

Tulle Lace

Salam!

let's wear lace for hari raya! This was my baju raya some years ago. People always think lace for engagement party, wedding or any formal functions only. But don't worry because if you can pull it off you will look good and you will not look like you are overdressed.

For this modern baju kurung, i bought the material at Jakel and used satin silk in apple green and pair it with orange tulle lace. I asked the tailor to make a short top for me with the mermaid skirt. Then i had the ruffles for the inner sleeve and slit the outer sleeve up until my elbow.

So together with the clothes, i wore:

1. Same tone orange tudung bawal

2. Beads bracelet in pink from Cotton On (i know i love bargain!!)

3. Diamante heels from Charles& Keith

Tips:

1. For ruffles, used flowy and soft material like chiffon silk.

2.Wear your lace dress to cool places only because you will get sweat easily in hot and humid weather like Malaysia.
