Moving house and changing jobs took up so much of time that I’ve neglected this blog for aaaages – so its more than high time that I made up for this asap!! Now that I’m all settled in at my new flat and also my brand new laptop we’re ready to roll some more great Asian fashion finds for you!!

Taiwanese brand PUFFY resonates the sunny, relaxed spirit of young women with their collection of casual separates – casual, cute, feminine, flirty and comfortable all in one – what more could we possible want? Combined, the coordinates create lovely and comfy daytime looks! PUFFY was established in 2003.

One of my constant all time favourites has always been and remains the lovely Taiwanese fashion brand PUFFY, now with Autumn collections rolling into stores, lets have a look at the latest range of cute little Puffy pieces available now:

Super cute and adorable - only £10/ $18!!

This super cute little halter neck piece comes in three lovely colour combinations – white/ black, orange/ sky blue and yellow/ purple…a nice flaty chiffon so it drapes nicely – you can even wear this long top as a dress over leggings!

Oooooh, I don’t know about you but I absolutely love metallics – I just bought myself a lovely little black mini skirt with metallic studs all along the side – I really feel metallics are going to be big big big the next few months, so imagine my smile when I found this little metallic sequin little black dress – and its asymmetric too! – puuurrrrfect:

One Shoulder sequin dress - now at Puffy!!

Chose the classic black and white otion or for a little twist on classic colours go for the grey and black combo – either way, this little piece is something I can see turning into a wardrobe must-have for Saturday nights! With the asymmetric dress line, the dual colours, the metallic look and the lovely frill neck this cutie has almost everything you need for those girlie weekend nights out!

Yes we know the marine look is always a spring summer classic – call it cruise, call it marine…its a tweak on the same look every time – but hey, we love it anyway so we don’t mind what the look is called, we’ll rock it either way – so much so we’re even rocking it into autumn with this cute Puffy long top/ dress:

At Puffy they are rocking the long top as a dress with high heels – for the daring ones amongst us not a problem I’d hope? You can always pair with staple leggings as well of course. In case the blue version is a bit too summer and a bit too marine for you, fear not – this little stripe dress comes in black and brown as well

If you look at any of the upcoming SS09’s shows recently at fashion week New York and fashion week London and even fashion week Paris you would have noticed a high use of obi belts – the Japanese asian style wrap belts.

Obi belts were seen all over the runways from New York to Paris at Marc Jacobs in New York, Basso & Brooke in London and the amazing Louis Vuitton collection show in Paris – understandably so – they’re easy to wrap, create a great feminine silhouette and are one size for all. At the same time they add a great exotic touch that makes the most boring office outfit stand out and look special.

The obi belt (like this black leather obi belt by the one and only Miu Miu) is without definitely an item that can be taken straight from the runway into the personal wardrobe without any changes!

So have we ever featured obi belts on asianoa.com? You bet we have! And what did we featre them with? Of course with what they go with best – kimono dresses. And where did we feature them? In our Nabi Korea Fashion – sophisticated Kimono style dresses! post of course!

So today, we take another look around at the fabulous Korean fashion brand Nabi Korea and pick out some more lovely kimono style dresses worn best with our new favourite obi belts:

This gorgeous purple is a great example of a billowing, flowy kimono style dress with a modern twist and a lovely waist created by a strong oversized obi belt. Made of a lovely blend of satin and chiffon this elegant dress is perfect for special evening occassions.

This floral japanese kimono style dress in a bright summer yellow comes with a lovely obi sash belt as well of course.

Get it now – right here at YesStyle for only $84.80!

If the florals and the colours are too bright for you and you firmly believe in the all time classic black – do not despair, for eventhough they love their bright colored satins and floral prints over at Nabi Korea, they also have lovely subdued pieces like this elegant little black velvet dress above. With a lovely embroidered waist which can be tied, layered body and kimono style sleeves this dress is one which can be worn again and again.

Dodogo is one of the most popular South Korean fashion brands and regularly bring us fresh and unique styles and designs that we fall in love with again every time! And blouses – lovely, elegant and stylish blouses are never out of season or style…so here we bring you two lovely blouses from the Korean fashio brand Dodogogo:

This elegant ivory satiny blouse is absolutely timeless. Made out of a lovely shiny and comfortable blend of polyester and spandex, this blouse ensures a perfect and comfortable fit and comes in a beautiful and elegant ivory and also the ever versatile black. An elegant tie bow at the the neck drapes down the front while both the mandarin collar and the cuffs are studded with subtle pearl like buttons.

Browsing through a hundred blouses this one immediately caught my eye. It shows no skin at all and is so extremely classy and sexy you just can’t take your eyes off it – strong glossy fabric and the lovely ruffles draping down from the collar make it stand out so well. Not only does it come in the timeless black but also a very elegant ivory but also in a rare dark pink and an exotic green as well. No matter what complexion or hair colour you might have – there is definitely a colour to match!

Previously we had featured the award winning South Korean fashion designer Heo Nam Hee with his beautifully avantgarde and clean cut brand HAEGAL.

Here we bring you another fabulously talented Korean fashion designer – Kim Hae Toon, designer of South Korean brand FREAKS. Kim Hae Toon brings together designs that one could say have a western foundation and adds to them completely modern cuts and vintage details – this makes each of his pieces unmistakeably unique!

Look at this ultimately feminine and sexy purple dress! The dynamic draping and flow makes it an absolute eye catcher, this in combination with the rich colour makes any further extravaganza completely unecessary and creates an absolutely breathtaking dress.

Looking for something a bit more strict but still feminine at the same time? Then how about this shade of a warm brick red in an asymmetric cut? The straight cut collar and general asymmetric cut gives this dress a stricter feel than the draping and flowing purple dress above. The big billowing sleeves and beautiful curl give it a fabulous fit and keep it very feminine and give it a unique touch. Made from a great combination of rayon, wool and spandex this dress had an absolute perfect fit with just the right amount of stretch to highlight your figure.

Just in case you had just started thinking that all FREAKS designs were soft and flowing shapes we found something to change you mind! So drapy and flowy dresses are not your thing and you prefer clean cut straight lines? This military coat by the Korean designer Kim Hae Toon says it all…no further words needed…

Hmmm, did I just find a new favourite Asian fashion brand at YesStyle? To add to my list of many favourite Korean brands I just came across PUFFY from Taiwan – Taiwanese brand PUFFY has a sunny, relaxed spirit and look to it and is absolutely perfect for young women with their collection of casual separates at great prices! Combined, the great single seperate pieces make great daytime looks that are both casual and super stylish at the same time.

Have a look at some of these great pieces below and you’ll see straight away why I’m all over them already:
