It doesn't matter





Wearing vintage diy Levi's shorts, cream pullover, bag and belt, pink ruffle top from Style Reverie and shoes from theshoescollection

I recently received this pink ruffle top from the lovely Jer Sie of Style Reverie. I'm not usually a ruffle person but the black threading on the ends of the ruffles just makes it stand out. If you're wondering what Style Reverie is, it's an online store which believes in bringing chic and fun style for the professional and modern woman. Now for the juicy bit, all Not So Naked readers can receive 10% off purchases until the 30th of April 2010. All you need to do is type "notsonaked" when prompted for discount voucher at check out. If you're smart and wanna get good quality apparel at very affordable prices, head over to Style Reverie now!

uhh...people.

Who said Adelaide couldn't throw a decent party? Not me. It's all to launch the Autumn issue of our town's own rag trade paper, Attitude magazine. Pick up a copy at boutiques around town for the best this city has to offer.

Samson and Delilah, oh my









Wearing Mossimo Dutti, vintage Levi's high waisted shorts (not shown in photos), Mink Pink grey bodysuit, shoesone peep toe sneaker wedges from theshoescollection, Zara wool scarf, Charles & Keith bag and cocktail ring from Sportsgirl

I'm finally back from my super long holiday! How I've missed this blog! I had heaps of fun in Malaysia and Singapore but it is so good to be back in Adelaide. We got back last Saturday and the weather was pretty miserable. I was hoping for more sun over the long weekend so I could have my last dip in the sea before the cold winter arrives. But looks like the weather just wasn't on my side, we got back to a cloudy and rainy Adelaide.

While I was overseas, I stocked up on a lot of Topshop. I also got addicted to Singaporean high street brand Charles & Keith who specialise in shoes and bags. I got myself two bags and was very tempted to get one more but stopped myself otherwise I would have to suffer the consequence of paying for extra baggage weight on the way back. Well, we ended up getting away with an extra 15kg without paying a single cent. Don't ask me how it happened, the lady behind the check-in counter was just very gracious. Oh how I love Asia.
