A/W 15 LookBook: Burgundy & Dark Olive Green Layering
October was considered a travelling month for me because i manage to finally visit Japan which you can view my stories here, or if you are more interested in the fashion section you can browse my Japan LookBook blogpost feat. TokiChoi.
Today's post is yet another entry for Toki Choi and let me clarify that these outfit you see here are bought by me and not sponsored ya. I love this brand so much because of the wide variety they have to offer both Korean and Japanese styled clothings.
Their clothes are one of the most versatile (easy to mix & match), comfortable and travel friendly because they are lightweight, doesn't take up too much space in your luggage.
Since it's also already fall in most countries, the color coordination i selected were something to reflect it despite our country having one 2 seasons lol.
One of the regular fall colors that never fails to make a come back whether as a main or supporting color is always Burgundy. It could be in different shades but you'll definitely see this color in the during the fashion forecast. To compliment my burgundy, I've layered it with my faded dark olive green oversize men's shirt with sleeves casually rolled up 3/4 to give it a hint of street grunge look to balance out the boring sleek and clean look i usually have lol.
Thanks Carina Kate for helping take all my OOTD shots, it was impromptu actually lol.
She took this shot as i was taking my own sweet time to walk down the stairs.
She's has a good eye for photography haha! Go visit her Facebook to support this crazy girl ok? XD
From now on i think i'll just travel with all my Toki Choi clothes collection which seems to be expanding alot thanks to their recent sales and offers + additional discount codes.
Their clothing quality is something you can rest assure it will be from the best, not any average cheap looking kind of fabric with shoddy workmanship.
Affordable even without any discounts and when they do have their monthly promotions it's even more value for your money lol.
My beliefs for fashion are, you don't have to sacrifice your wallet in order to look fashionable and instagram OOTD worthy.
Seriously, i do not understand why some clothings are sold at such outrageous prices when the quality is seriously terrible. It's also about shopping smart and make sure to have a vision in your head about what your potential haul can be used with for future OOTDs.
It's shouldn't be a one time thing, if like that might as well buy the cheapest clothes you can find lol so you can wear and throw away.
# Fashion Tip: Styling is very important as each type of styling (accessories & such) can give out a different outcome on the wearer though it's the same clothes on.

Studded Handbag| Zalora
High Heels | LZD by Lazada
Upclose shot of my favorite studded bag from zalora bought during their sale earlier this year.
What i wasn't happy about this bag was the quality, after one usage the clasps holding the shoulder string broke and had to send to the haberdashery store to get it fixed. And don't get me started on the studs, it's falling out non stop. First and last time i'm getting their in-house brand because their quality is TERRIBLE. Once bought their zalora sandals which only last me for 2 wears before it gave way, end up throwing it because not worth to pay so much to fix it back :-/
But so far their clothes range seem to be fine aside from it looking a wee bit cheapo looking thanks to their fabric choices lel.

High heels always makes any OOTD look like we have just walked out of a Fashion spread magazine and who doesn't like heels despite them being painful (beauty has a price), since it helps to make us girls look taller with an illusion of slimmer legs too! :-P
