Charmy Charm

When I was a little girl, I never had a charm bracelet. Maybe because of that, I always find them special. Every charm that is attached on the chain represents something about you. Specially you. But how many of us are lucky enough to collect charm after charm? My first charm bracelet was from my younger brother a few months back. Something very simple, but he managed to find one that has charms that are very meaningful to me. (photo below on the left).  



A few weeks back, I bought a bracelet which look a little bit like charm bracelet, but strictly speaking, it's not the real real charm bracelet. It added in elements such as little coins, black linen string, chain and a black crystal. Something chunky enough to make me feel good. (photo above on the right - yeah that's my hand!)

So charm, is not just the simple charm. Add in pearls, add in ribbons, add in crystals, the effect gets amplified, and the satisfaction is more than a normal charm. Try it by mixing a few bracelets, see the effects, and be charming all the time! <3

Accessories Craze

It has been noticeable that ladies are getting more sophisticated by adding accessories into their daily wear. Pairing with different accessories gives a very different effect, and thus equips your wardrobe much efficiently. A same blouse, with different necklaces, or even with or without a belt, gives fashion a whole different statement.

In Japan and South Korea, majority of the accessories are very sweet and girly. Most of them are made up from lace, pearls, ribbons, crystals and many times you see flowers and ribbons everywhere. Taiwanese are quite influenced by them, but from what I noticed, they are generally more conservative in term of the girly factor. Usually, with the Japanese & Korean accessories, you just have to combine with a very natural make-up, you’ll definitely be sweet enough for the day. And tips for this look -> go with a light-colored super juicy shiny lip gloss that pumps up your lips!

Korean Style Accessories: Sweet & Girly <3

In Thailand and Malaysia, other than the sweet Japanese & Korean accessories, they add in a little bit of ethnic’s flavor, and a little combination of the western culture. Probably because these markets have more tourists coming from western countries, they have quite a good market selling all the bigger size clothing and chunky accessories, catering to the tourists. It’s only until recent years where there’s huge increase in tourists from China when I see more shop selling Korean fashion and accessories.

Bangkok Chatuchak Market: Varieties with affordable prices!

In Singapore, it’s very cosmopolitan. The K-pop fans and the J-pop fans are everywhere. And there’s a group who follows the American/British fashion, where you see them in chunky necklace, spiked heels, big leather bags etc. If you want me to generalize the Singapore style, most of the ladies take priority in investing in this very expensive accessory – branded bag. Chanel, Prada, Louis Vuiton, you see them everywhere.

In Singapore: Bag can be a statement
