ThreeSixth

When we first entered the ThreeSixth website, the first thing we noticed was that they are on Instagram! Now we love pictures on Instagram and it's such a fantastic platform to share pictures of their beautiful clothes. The one which caught our eyes was this picture of a maxi dress that would be launched soon. We love the greenery in the background and the rustic feel of the filter.


Scrolling through their website is a breeze. The new arrivals tab shows the latest ThreeSixth collection while the What's Available tab lists down all the pretty clothes from past collections. To purchase, simply scroll down to the bottom, fill in the necessary information and hit submit! It's just that easy and fuss-free. ThreeSixth extends free normal postage if you join their mailing list and like their facebook page while registered postage is free if you spend more than $80. 

Now, moving on to their pretty clothes. We love the prints on their clothes. Especially this little crop top in their latest collection. The prints are eye-catching and the crop top is just perfect with jeans or shorts for a casual day out. 


ThreeSixth stocks nice form fitting dresses and skirts as well. Our favourite has to be this colour-block skirt. The striking red colour block and the slim cutting of this skirt make this an irresistible buy. 


GoodiesMag is working with ThreeSixth to bring more goodies to our readers! Hope on over to our facebook page, like both our page and the ThreeSixth facebook page, like and share our post and you stand a chance to win $10 shopping credit with ThreeSixth!

So what are you waiting for? Spread the joy :)

Hollyhoque

When we first discovered Hollyhoque, it was still a modest online blogshop with a young pretty model who is also the founder and owner of Hollyhoque. Life is certainly unfair in many ways, for her to be blessed with such good looks and capability to bring Hollyhoque to its current status today. We also enjoy reading her own personal blog where she describes the food places she visit and her daily outfits! 

Anyway Hollyhoque is an established online shop today with a strong fan base and a brick and mortar shop at Far East #01-31. The boutique is a recent addition and we love the decoration in the shop with the cute birdie decals and neat wooden racks. We love online shopping but nothing beats the feeling of trying on a dress before purchasing so we were excited to know that Hollyhoque has its own boutique!

There's another thing we like about Hollyhoque - the lookbook pictures! Every lookbook has a special theme, be it Parisian chic, vintage, grassy wilderness or minimalist. We really enjoy scrolling through their Boutique Lookbook because it's just so attractive! Here are a couple of shots we are especially fond of.


We love the lighting in this shot! Feels like dusk in the lush green wilderness. Great contrast and the dress fits the model wonderfully. We love the lace pattern on the bodice and the cut of the dress makes it appropriate for work and play.


Doesn't this shot make you long for a day in a nice wooden cottage away from the city, dressed in casual chic, reading a book and sipping some English tea? Feels so laid back and casual.


White ornate pillars and pastel colored clothes emit a feminine Parisian chic. The Plain Jane Buttons shirt looks so comfy! And we love the coral shade of the skorts too.

As for the clothes, we personally enjoy shopping with Hollyhoque for jackets and blazers because the cut is really good and form-fitting. This is our favourite jacket so far.


The Casual Slim Fit blazer comes in white, electric blue and fuchsia. But we are getting bored of the usual black and white blazers so we opted for the electric blue one as it matches well with jeans. The material is really good too. Comfy, not too thick but keeps you sufficiently warm.

Pearlavish

Long before we started doing reviews of online stores, we have been shopping with Pearlavish. Their website is fuss-free, simple and clean. Their beautiful clothes are arranged in a sequence of blog posts and launched in collections.

To place your order, simply leave a comment in the format provided and wait for your invoice to be emailed to you. After receiving your invoice, arrange for payment to be made and anticipate the arrival of your lovely purchase! You can choose your preferred mode of postage being either normal mail, registered mail or Smartpac. We usually pick registered mail as we would hate to have our dress lost in the mail somewhere.



The thing we love about their clothes is the bold prints and the loud colours. While browsing through their website recently, we spot some dresses and tops with really fantastic prints that will definitely catch everybody's eyes.


The Arts Festival Colour Splash Dress above is a stunner. We can totally imagine going for a dinner date in this dress without having the need to accessorize at all as the prints are so attractive.


The Ayden Floral Top is the perfect top to pair with any solid colour pencil skirt and you are ready for work. The bright colours and prints make you look lively and cheery at work. Throw on a blazer and you are good for the boardroom too. 


Last but not least, the Baroque Bodycon Tank Dress. We love the cut in design of the dress around the collar bones as it exposes the shoulders slightly without going too far. Looking sexy without revealing too much, this dress looks good for a night out at a jazz bar over a couple of drinks. 

We have been really pleased with their customer service as well. They are prompt in issuing invoices and verifying payment. Pearlavish mails out your items efficiently too so you get to receive your item really quickly. We have never had any issues with their clothes too! The measurements are accurate and colours are true to picture.

Classic Concept Store at Sim Lim

We explored Sim Lim Square the other day for a store that sells reasonably priced tablets with specs that rival the Ipad and Samsung Tab. After prowling through every level in the crowded mall, we came across Classic Concept Store on the 5th floor where we eventually made our purchase.

Service was good. Andrew explained the specs of the tablet clearly and told us the perks of purchasing the Yuandao N101 instead of the other tablets. He was also very accommodating with our requests to test out various aspects of the tablet. While we were at the store, we tested almost everything such as the video playing function, wifi connection, loading speed of websites, streaming videos online and of course, the hdmi connection.


The Yuandao N101 comes with a screen protector and a cover which fits pretty well. We like the brown PVC leather of the cover as well as it is sleek and stylish.


The Yuandao N101 box comes with a USB adapter as well as a charger. Andrew also included a Hdmi connector for us out of goodwill. So thoughtful!


The price quoted for the Yuandao N101 was $320 but we managed to bargain a little and got a slightly lower price. Definitely one of the best prices in Sim Lim Square though!
