My Shopping List ( 1 )

So Today I thought I would do a more personal post and not really fashion related. As we all know, ( okay maybe only I know ) the Great Singapore Sale is coming!!!! That means SHOPPING!!! And I am already cutting down on my shopping tremendously just to save for the sale x.x ( It's really hard I tell you ) 

So today I thought I might share my shopping list with you! :) The prices would all be in Singapore dollars. I'm not sure I will include pictures because I'm really sucky at it still :x Oh dear

Ryan's Shopping List
1. Zara Bag
Can't really find the picture of the design I wanted and I didn't snap one at the store. But I'm really eyeing that bag. It may be a little too big for me but it's design is really nice for a hippy student schoolbag. Once I buy it I'll show my readers <3

Cost - 129

2. Zara Jeans 
Once I saw it I fell in love with it. Not really understanding why, but I just loved the fit on the mannequin. I know it will probably not fit me the same but I'm going to have it altered. Also the white color was something that was very unique, it had a certain glow to it! That's why it's number two on my list :)












Cost - 99.90


3. Zara Leather Jacket
I have been eyeing a leather jacket for a very long time. One of the main reasons I don't buy it is because the weather here is way too hot to wear it. Also if you don't wear it often enough the cost of one leather jacket would then be very unreasonable! I mean 199 for something you don't wear much? Like x.x! But But my love for leather jackets makes me just want to buy one. I have been searching the whole island for a RED leather jacket and finally at Zara I found it :)
This is not the only design that I like. I quite like a brown leather jacket and there is one usual black one that really appeals to me! We'll see how it goes! :)











Cost - 199


4. - Zara Tees
You all must be thinking, hey! HOW COME YOU'RE FIRST FOUR ITEMS COME FROM ZARA? Well it's because I don't own anything from zara!!! Yes that's true, I have been into zara shops 100 times but I have never bought anything from there x.x So this time around, I must!!! I really like zara tees now, the material is way better than those of my topman ones! But the cost is more expensive that's why I have been sticking to topman. This time, I plan to not only get plain t-shirts but also graphic t-shirts! Not really a fan of graphic t-shirts because many of them just have lame pictures on it in my opinion. :/ But I really like this graphic tee from zara! ( AGAIN ZARA ) but yes! I really like it!!! <3


Cost - 29.90 - 59.90


5. Topman Skinny Chinos
If you have another store in Singapore that sells skinny chinos as skinny as those in Topman DO DO RECOMMEND THEM TO ME! Been looking all over the island but just can't find anything that rivals the topman chino. ( I'm looking for a cheap bargain too ) For 73 dollars I must say it's pretty worth it! The only thing that has hampered my attempts in getting a chino is that whenever I go shopping there's never a size 28 and length 30 x.x !!! LIKE NEVER?! Okayy maybe sometimes there are times when I see size 28 but it's like NEVER in the color I want :( which is mustard and burgundy!! :o


Cost - 73

STAY TUNED FOR PART 2 OF MY SHOPPING LIST!! Will there be a part 3? :o

Asymmetrical Skirt

Asymmetrical skirts are just a beauty. When a girl knows how to wear the skirt well, it just really blows you away. The beautiful design and uniqueness of it really makes it a must have for a girl for this spring and summer.

ONE IMPORTANT THING! When choosing the skirt, choose the skirt that enhances the certain body features you want others to see. You don't really want to wear something that shows off certain aspects of your body that you're afraid of showing right? Choose the size that fits you well.

Personally, I would love these skirts to be in pastel colors as it's for the spring and summer. But really, choose a skirt which complements well with mostly what you in your wardrobe so you won't have the pain to go get another top to make the look work. 

Now.




These skirts are very easy to dress up in. As seen from the above pictures, just one simple plain top and the skirt with a pair of heels and you're ready to go! Complete your look with accessories!

Style Essentials - The White V-Neck

In my opinion, I believe that the white v-neck tee is one of the most important items to have in your wardrobe. It's perfect to match with anything with any color. Be it black jeans to pink jeans white will always go well with anything. This basic v-neck can be worn plainly just by itself to give it a very casual look or paired up with blazers or jackets. Actually it doesn't really have to be a v-neck cutting. It could also be crew just as long as the plain white design is there.

Well as you might be wondering, why the pictures I used don't feature me in my white v-neck is because I LOST MY WHITE V-NECK -.-' I seriously don't know where it went :x so yea.

1. Paired with blazer and jeans
This model is in a white v-neck with a black blazer and a pair of red denim or chinos. 

This is a type of semi-formal look which is very popular. This replaces the very traditional and sometimes too formal shirt and tie. Relax a little and chill out for going to clubs in this simple but yet stylish way to impress the girls. If you don't have a black blazer there is always other color alternatives such as nude or earthy tone blazers. But these would go better with a darker pair of denim.









2. Paired with a Leather Jacket
This is a very casual but rocking way to dress for your Sunday's heading for town. But sometimes the black leather jacket can get very common. So there are other alternatives to this. The leather jacket can also be either brown or red. A red leather jacket would go better with a mustard color pair of denim and a black supra. :)











3. Paired with a Shirt
There is nothing more simpler than going into your wardrobe, digging out a matching shirt and pants and wear a white tee under it.  












4. Add accessories to your outfit.
Aviators and chains make great accessories to complete your outfit. The white v-neck can be worn plainly with your accessories and a pair of denim and you could already head out to town! This shows how versatile your white tee can be. Ranging from a semi-formal look to a very casual look the white v-neck allows you to choose who you want to be for the day. And this is why every guy should own one. ( I will find it back don't worry! )

Mr. Preppy

So this will be my first post for the blog. ( well second ) But it's the first fashion post! So it still can be considered the first right? I have a weird sense of typing, it seems like I'm talking to myself so please PLEASE bear with it!


























This looked is styled with
 1. Navy Blue Cardigan from Ralph Lauren
 2. White Dress Shirt from Dad's Closet ( LOL )
 3. Black Tie from Z ( Local Store )
 4. Red Stretched Skinny Jeans from Topman
 5. Scouts Shoes ( SERIOUS )
 6. Big Rim Specs from ????












Well as you can see, I'm still new to blogging and this picture and words is so pissing me off. It just doesn't go where I want them to go!

Anyways, this is a very preppy (???) type of look. I tried to add a little color into this look opting for my second cardigan which is this one instead of my black one. Also I decided to spice things up with some color to contrast the blue with some red. And as for you all know, white and black always goes well with anything and they turned out well here too! As for the shoes, I really didn't have a choice, these were the closest I could get to a pair of nice oxfords. So yea :D

Anyways thank you all for reading this post which I think by the way makes no freaking sense LOL! Well it's my first post :x
