Hello Sailor – the nautical trend is back Spring 2010!

By Noa • Feb 7th, 2010 • Category: Lead Story, Noa

Thinking of going for a sexy but cute look? Nothing does that like a uniform gone kawaii – this fabulous little sailor dress comes in the perfect blue and also in a classic black/ gold combination – personally, I think if you’re gonna wear this dress you should go all the way and rock the sailor look in blue though…

Ok, I’ll fully admit my pictures don’t look quite as ultra stylish as those of la hot asian model on the website – but hey, give me a chance to style it and I’ll so get there (my hair is just such a mess right now!)…even got the aviators and the ripped denim hot pants ready to go!

Asian Fashion – my buy of the day!

By Noa • Aug 2nd, 2009 • Category: Lead Story

It is Sunday – so we all know what that means: we might not be in Seoul or Hong Kong or prowling the streets of Harajuku for our next steal buys, but we are definitely prowling the East London markets of Brick Lane and Spitalfields (personally, I truly believe there is no better way of spending one’s entire Sunday)…



Puffy Puffy Puffy – we love Spring Summer 09 Taiwan fashion!

By Noa • Mar 15th, 2009 • Category: Dresses, Lead Story, YesStyle

Aaah, slowly all the SS09 collections are starting to trickle in and stock has hit the shelves for one of us our favourite brands – PUFFY from Taiwan! The new collection is again a perfect blend of girlie, soft tones, boho with an urban touch. Mini dresses, long tops, tunics, shirt dresses – pinks, gray and whites – we’re keeping it light this summer at Puffy Taiwan…



Spring is coming…spring in boho, dresses, casual and relaxed…

By Noa • Mar 8th, 2009 • Category: Dresses, Lead Story

Slowly but steadily spring is headed our way…we are now in March and in about a month’s time we have hopefully put away our beloved furs for the next 6 months at least!

If winter is the season for chunky earth tones and military style outfits (from Balenciaga to Marc Jacobs, yes we noticed) then Spring and Summer are always a time for the boho season – its sunny and warm and we want to wear something light and airy and colourful! Boho style lets us blend colours and layer prints – throw that paisley chiffon over some striped cotton, let down your hair and sit yourself down in the park with a ice cool cider – oh we just can’t wait!



Perfect women’s work wear clothing – from The Froce, South Korea

By Noa • Feb 8th, 2009 • Category: Lead Story, Shirts & Blouses

As a woman, finding the right work wear clothing can be a tricky task at times to say just the very least. Work clothes are different at every job and in every single office. What do you wear to a job interview? What do you wear when you’re new on the job and not too sure what the office clothing ‘rules’ are? Or maybe you’ve been at your current job for a while and you know there’s a strict clothing rule to be adhered to – classy but conservative skirts and blouses, trouser suits, formal shirts and subdued colours.

So what do you do when you get the feeling you’ve been wearing the same clothes for work day and day out? Where do you look when you need to refresh the work outfit wardrobe and want something new?
