…soooo many options and we do love getting dressed up – so Valentine’s is as good an excuse as any I say!

Let’s start today’s trend with the Spring/Summer 2010 nautical theme – some Riviera chic my friends?

HELLO SAILOR..!!

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…

This button trimmed tube dress is adorable and comes straight from Taiwan fashion brand Sylvia – young, fun and flirty!

The sailor/ nautical/ maritime trend has been making a comeback under a different name every spring – and 2010 is no exception – from the high street to high fashion – sail away it is for all of us…

More sailing fashion coming up soon - after the jump – what this space!

sneak peek…

One of the few Taiwan fashion brands who seem to have managed to make a real mark on international fashion (definitely very present in the UK for sure!) is definitely YUMI.

Only established as late as 2008 they have definitely moved very quickly (a complete staple for the lower basement at Top Shop already) and a number of online stores feature them as well…the brand new autumn 09 collection seems to have hit stores, so we had a look around to figure out why Yumi is being such a raging fashion success.

This flirty little gingham mini checked shirt dress (for ONLY $27.00!) is available in two great and easy color combinations – black and white or red and white. Styled with a vest and boots for a modern country look (Taiwan goes Cowboy people!). One size. Cotton, polyester. By Yumi, Taiwan.

This lightweight sweater dress is perfect for those in-between autumn days! It is made of an easy and comfortable cotton and polyester blend for easy layering. The roll neck features a cinched center which makes it elegant and suitable for work too, while the body of the dress swings free and easy for all the comfort you ever wanted… One size. Cotton, polyester. By YUMI, Taiwan. For ONLY – hold tight – $28.00 – no reason not to!

You know its autumn and winter draws near…but you’re not ready to let go of the summer dress yet? No worries, Yumi  know exactly how we all feel and bring us this great combo – dress & scarf for only $34.20 – so you can be as indecisive as you want – wear the bright prints with a lovely warm scarf to match!

Ok ok, we all like Top Shop and stuff, but £70 for a Yumi dress when I can get it at YesStyle for around £30 (max!)…?!?! Really?!

Think its time I went and got me some lovely little Yumi dresses all the way straight from Taiwan to London asap!

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

We start off with this cute little gray minidress – a comfortable and machine washable (thank God for easy wash clothes!) mix of cotton and polyester with lovely studs along the neckline and a very cute pussy bow at the neck! Pair this dress with some lovely leggings (like the super hot low rise black rats from Sass & Bide) and maybe a pair of lovely platform shoes from Kurt Geiger for a really urban look that is sassy and cute at the same time!

Now this little lace mini dress with the gorgeous lace sleeves is an absolute must-have in my books (especially at only $35 there is no reason not to get it)! To keep the eye on the lovely sleeves, make sure you tone down the rest of the outfit – so no flashy leggings but rather some fair priced opaque tights and a nice pair of flat boots like these from Jeffrey Campbell.

This little stunner is the ultimate micro mini dress in the true sense of the minidress – shift mini dress a la twiggy a la the true original mini dress like it was created to be!

Those tabbed sleeves are so the best and the mini mini length absolutely adorable – definitely on my must-get list as well!
