    Malaysia Fashion Entrepreneur Annabelle Sue

    Hi Annabelle, thank you for taking the time to answer our questions on SimplySxy.  Please share with our readers a little about yourself and where you’re from?

    Hi everyone! I’m Annabelle Sue. My life revolves around my passion for fashion, love for animals, and burning desire to travel and explore. I grew up in Malaysia and Singapore, and just moved back to Malaysia 3 years ago to pursue my Degree in Fashion & Retail. This year, I launched my fashion boutique FREYJA here.

    How will you describe your fashion style?

    To be honest, I haven’t figured out how to concise my fashion style into a sentence. I enjoy experimenting with different looks, and find that the most fascinating thing about fashion lies in its ability to let you be anything you want. Some days I’m modish, and some days boho-chic, some days a sports-lover, some days hella sexy, or some days dramatic. It’s a Barbie world.

    Can you share your beauty regime to looking so gorgeous?

    I force myself to cleanse, tone, and moisturise my face twice a day no matter the circumstances because I’m not ready for wrinkles. As for my hair… I don’t own a comb.

    4

    What is your favorite thing to spend money on?

    CLOTHES, in a heartbeat.

    5

    What is the first thing you notice about people?

    Their confidence, because it affects everything – from the way they dress to the things they say.

    6

    Which is the biggest compliment you have received? 

    That I have a big heart, because I strive to.

    Lamest pickup line or attempt a guy has used on you? 

    In my teens, a French boy dropped me back from a first date insisting it was in the French culture to kiss on the lips when saying goodbye. That was lame, and needless to say, the last date.

    Do you have any motto(s) which you live by?

    Not a motto, but I live by Invictus, a poem by William Ernest Henley. To summarise it in a sentence –

    “I am the master of my fate:

    I am the captain of my soul.”

    It’s a pleasure to feature you Annabelle. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”? 

    Someone who’s independent, confident, driven and kind, with one hell of a wardrobe to back it all up!

  • The Lovely Farrah Bui Shares On What Turns Her Off

    The Lovely Farrah Bui Shares On What Turns Her Off

    Hi Farrah, thank you for taking the time to answer our questions on SimplySxy.  Please share with our readers a little about yourself and where you’re from?

    No problem, thank you for giving me the opportunity! Well, I’m from Vancouver, Canada and I am currently a full-time university student. I love all things beauty and fashion and fluffy dogs. Also love the non-fluffy ones. I make videos for my YouTube beauty channel during my spare time and love to sing, dance, hike, and spend time with family and friends!

    How do you keep yourself updated with the latest beauty and lifestyle trends? 

    I keep updated by watching my favourite YouTubers talk about their current favourites and I regularly enjoy reading magazines like Cosmopolitan and Elle.

    What is your beauty regime like?

    It really depends on the day, what I’ll be doing,  and what my my mood is like. Some days I love a full face with 1000 different eye-shadow shades blended together and chiseled cheeks, and other days I enjoy nothing but concealer, filled brows, and mascara. But every day always starts with a freshly cleansed face, moisturized skin, and defined eyebrows. I’ve also been into glowing skin lately, so highlighter is a must!

    Where can we catch you partying or chilling out on weekends?

    When I do have some spare time (on the weekends I’m usually working) I LOVE going to Granville Island in Vancouver. It’s one of my favourite places especially during the spring and summer. I love being outdoors and staying active, but you can also catch me on the weekends snuggled up in bed watching Scandal or a good documentary. I love listening to hip-hop and R&B music so I tend to gravitate towards places that play those genres! You can find me on Sundays anywhere with a special on caesars. I also like to get lit with some extra buttered popcorn at the movie theatre.

    Are you more of a morning person or night owl? 

    I’m definitely more of a night owl. I’d love to pretend that I’m a morning person and sound super productive, but really I get a lot more work done at night, which is interesting considering I get sleepy at around 11 pm.

    Best compliment you have ever received?  

    The best compliment I’ve ever received would have to be from this little boy I was volunteering to read with. We were reading a book about butterflies and he pointed to the butterfly and said “Farrah!” While I don’t know if he necessarily meant it as a compliment, it was a beautiful butterfly and they signify all kinds of beauty, freedom, and transformation which I think are amazing things.

    What turns you off? 

    Smelliness! Please put on some deodorant! Ignorance.. Not everyone knows the same things you know, believes the same things you believe, or has the things you have. I also get turned off by a lack of manners. It’s amazing how far a simple please and thank you can go. Raw onions also turn me off. I always pick them out of a salad.

    Most embarrassing thing that has happened to you that seems funny now?  

    I always somehow seem to put myself into really embarrassing situations or have embarrassing things happen to me. I think it’s just a part of who I am now. When my best friend and I were 18, we called and emailed what seemed like virtually every single bar, pub, or nightclub in Vancouver asking them if they allowed 18 year olds inside their venue (lol). Obviously everyone said no, until this one restaurant said they did allow people under 19 (the British Columbia drinking age) in as long as they didn’t sit at the bar. We thought we could try and get some drinks there. So we go there, and just stood in front of the door for about 5 minutes gathering the courage to go inside and the hostess was like “Um are you coming in…?” and we nervously rushed inside. We sat at a table adjacent to the bar and the first thing the server asked us was to see our IDs.. We were so embarrassed that we left. It’s funny now because we are pretty much grandmas who would rather go eat some honey garlic wings than drink.

    It’s a pleasure to feature you Farrah. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”? 

    It’s been my pleasure answering these great questions! Thanks for featuring me. Sexy to me is being happy in your own skin and not being afraid to laugh at yourself. As simple and cliche as that may sound, it’s hard to get to a place where you’re completely happy and confident with who you are. Some days I feel like Beyonce and some days I feel about as sexy as a sack of potatoes. Sexy to me is also having a sense of humour, rocking a cute outfit whether you’re a size 0 or a size 20, being humble, being open to new experiences, and having the ability to be compassionate and sympathize with others.

  • Blogger and Marketing Executive Carinn Tan

    Blogger and Marketing Executive Carinn Tan

    Who is Carinn Tan?

    I’m Carinn (pronounced ‘carerynn’, hence my social media handle) and I’m a proud Johorean. Most people would remember me as an extremely petite girl. I have been blogging about fashion and beauty at www.extraordinarinn.com for the past 3 years and am also currently working as a marketing executive.

    2

    What inspired you to start your blog?

    Because I like to shop and I love fashion, I’ve had many friends asking me about where to get various pieces or seek my advice about beauty products to use. After a while, I thought, why not start a blog to reach out to more people then? In the meantime, I’ll also be able to try more new things and increase my experience.

    What are some misconceptions you hear about bloggers?

    That bloggers are “living it up” by getting paid to write or even getting free stuff. Nothing is free in this world, we work hard to maintain our blog. I actually think bloggers in general are quite multi-talented – they need to know a thing or two about makeup, fashion, photography, writing, design, HTML, video-editing, social media marketing and more!

    3

    Is it challenging to maintain your blog?

    Admittedly, it was much easier when I was studying but now that I’m working full-time, it has been quite a challenge for me to balance my work-life, social life, sleep schedule and blogging. I’m still trying my best to sort out my time and keep all these things in check though!

    4

    On a scale of 1-10, how much of a shopaholic are you?

    I would say, 9? I do shop a lot (mostly online lately) but in my defense, I usually go for budget but quality items. I’m always on the lookout for sales, bazaars and such!

    Which are your favourite fashion brands?

    I don’t have a particular brand that I love but off the top of my head, I would say Topshop and H&M. I don’t usually go for designer brands because I feel you can get replicas at more affordable prices most of the time. Topshop and H&M offers are more affordable and definitely still fashionable. Most importantly, they offer petite sizes for people like me!

    5

    What are the latest fashion trends that are most popular?

    One of the latest trends is culottes and I can’t argue with that because it’s so versatile, minimalistic yet stylish at the same time. Trends change all the time but it is up to you to interpret each style and make it your own.

    How is your daily beauty regime like?

    Just the basic skincare steps like cleanse, tone & moisturize. For my daily makeup, I must at least have some foundation on and my eyebrows done before I head out the door. Oh yes, I also cannot live without sunblock, I make it a point to never leave the house without it!

    6

    Do you have any hobbies?

    I love writing, taking photos, café-hopping, shopping and watching comedy sitcoms when I have the time.

    Most embarrassing thing you’ve ever done and laugh at it now?

    I guess that would be the time I went shopping for a baju kurung for an event… in the Kids’ section. I actually wrote about this story on my blog, you can read it here (http://bit.ly/carinnxinvisalign) if you want to. Not all’s bad though, because it got me an Invisalign contract in the end. 😛

    7

    What’s sexy to you?

    Nothing is sexier than confidence. I admire people who are confident and take charge of their own life. Wear what you want, eat what you want, go wherever you want and forget what others say, it’s YOUR life after all.

  • Interview with Fashion Babe Jassy Chang

    Interview with Fashion Babe Jassy Chang

    Hi Jassy, it’s a great pleasure to feature you on SimplySxy. Please share with our readers a little about yourself and where you’re from?

    I am from Taiwan originally, grew up in Shanghai and Malaysia, now I am back in Shanghai working in an advertising agency and travel around.

    a

    How will you describe your fashion style?

    My fashion style is pretty simple actually. Either I go with super sporty look or it’s all about hip-hop. But how I dressed normally is mainly casual hiphop and a little sexy sometimes; shorts, tank top, Diva red lipstick from Mac, hair band and a pair of Tims. That’s definitely my typical look. And of course I care about my shoes a lot. Sneakers especially! I like to play around with many styles, express how I feel everyday, depending on the occasions.

    b

    Do you have any hobbies?

    I like to travel. Living in a busy city missed out a lot of great nature out there. So when I have holidays or any free time, I would take a random trip just to go out somewhere to feel alive. Beaches, jungles, and mountains etc.. There are so much more things to explore and observe, trying out many different kind of foods and experiencing multiple culture around the world is something you don’t learn from a book or work.

    c

    Which is your preferred side when taking selfies?

    Right side. Because of my dimple, I only have one on the right.

    5.pic

    How picky are you when it comes to food?

    I am not very picky about food, but there are many limitations. No beef, spicy, pineapple, lamb, duck. Each of them has my own reason, but these things make me a picky person.

    d

    If you had the opportunity to change one thing in the world, what will it be?

    Sexism. I have seen cases and decisions were made because of a person’s gender. I do not see how gender could affect a result or get involve with any type of situations. Because we are all humans, technically we are all the same living in this world. Women are no difference from men; whatever men could achieve, so do women.

    e

    Where do you wish to travel next?

    Greece! I could only imagine it’s like heaven out there, peaceful and beautiful.

    11.pic

    Thank you for taking your time to answer our questions on SimplySxy. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”? 

    Being confident of yourself and really understand who you are or what you want is sexy. For me sexy is not about dressing style or how much make up you wear, it’s more about the experienced you had in your life and things you have gone through, and that is how you became a better person. Once you get that “vibe” right, you are good to go. There is no right or wrong about sexy. Everyone sees it in a different way, and all women should embrace themselves to be someone powerful and independent.

  • What Does Kelly Want To Change About The World?

    What Does Kelly Want To Change About The World?

    Who is Kelly He?

    Hi, thank you for reaching out! I’m a student who is currently studying economics at a Canadian university, and am subsequently planning to obtain a MBA degree in the United States. I want to pursue a career in management consulting, but am also passionate about academia. Some of my favourite things include: shopping, eating, travelling, and going out in general! I love exploring new places, and am definitely a fan of having nights I can’t completely remember. What I strongly believe in is living your life to the fullest – which means having an optimistic outlook, taking on new opportunities, and being adventurous.

    How will you describe your fashion style?

    I’m very open to most styles, but if I had to specify, then I’d say an alternation between classic and casual. I’m a huge fan of blouses and heels, and love leather gloves with a neutral woven coat (paired with red lipstick, of course). At the same time, my everyday go-to outfit typically includes high-waisted jeans and a jacket or sweater. I plan on continuing to explore new trends in the months to come!

    Is there an interesting story behind one of your cool tattoos?

    Well, you see, I fell in love with the idea of being inked a few years ago when I was 17. My first experience at a tattoo parlor was a quick 10-minute session which led to the two Chinese words on my back. Last year, I decided to be a bit more daring – after winning a few hundred dollars from a business competition, I impulsively decided to spend the money on more tattoos.

    This time, I added a phoenix and a string of roses to complement the pre-existing words. I could write an entire essay on why I chose each design, but instead, I want to leave the meanings behind them open for your interpretation. After all, the beauty of art lies in its subjectivity and ambiguity. I will say, however, that the words “恒心” mean “perseverance” in Chinese. As for the rest… what do you think?

    2

    Which is your preferred side when taking selfies?

    Definitely my left side (or your right). I have tons of earrings there for a reason!

    5

    Do you have any favorite quotes you live by?

    I actually have two top sayings that I always tell myself: “It’s never too late to start”, and “Have no regrets”.

    These just mean that I should always try my best, and make the most of what I can do. The second quote also means that no matter what, I should never waste time regretting my choices – I should learn from my mistakes and move on, since the past can’t be changed.

    How picky are you when it comes to food?

    Not picky at all! I love food (a bit too much), and the thought of trying new dishes excites me a lot. Usually, I don’t even mind eating leftovers. I’ve even started to really enjoy cooking, and am trying to learn how to make new meals. One of my goals is to visit as many different restaurants as possible.

    If you had the opportunity to change one thing in the world, what will it be?

    I would make “sharing” easier. And by this I mean not only sharing resources such as food, shelter, and clothing; but also sharing knowledge, opportunities, and power. I would encourage people to want to share what they have, and help foster a more equitable world.

    7

    What is the lamest attempt a guy has tried to know or hit on you?

    Haha, too many to list… To be honest, I think lame attempts are hilarious. I mean, pick-up lines don’t work on me, but they do make me laugh and make me more willing to talk to that person – as long as they’re nice! What I don’t like is if the guy tries to follow me around or if they can’t take a hint. Once, someone went to my badminton practice (I used to be on the school team), sat on the bench, and just watched me there for almost the entire time! That’s just weird.

    Photo Credit: BigJonMedia

    Thank you for taking your time to answer our questions on SimplySxy. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”? 

    Your sexiness is completely defined by you. I don’t think that the notion of being “sexy” should be restricted to a specific body type or to the amount of skin you show. Someone who is curvy can be just as sexy as someone who is slim; someone modelling for intimate apparel can be just as sexy as someone bundled up for the winter. In fact, being “sexy” can be a matter of personality, a facial expression, a tone of voice – it’s whatever you set it as, and everyone is able to be as “sexy” as they wish.

  • Watch Out For Tasnim’s Own Clothing Line Coming Up!

    Watch Out For Tasnim’s Own Clothing Line Coming Up!

    Who is Tasnim?

    Hi I’m Tasnim, 22. I’m from Pasir Mas, Kelantan. I was born on 13th August 1993. I’m starting my own clothing line now and its @bytasnim on Instagram and from there maybe I’ll expand to accessories and stuffs. I really can’t wait to start!

    How will you describe your fashion style?

    I love looking smart, but casual. I like to dress according to my mood, and I mostly wear darker clothes. I never really wear skirts, and I prefer leggings or denim jeans! I’ll choose flats over heels.

    Where do you usually shop and which are your favourite brands?

    Where do I shop ? Hmm well I’d choose Pavilion at Bukit Bintang, KL. My favourite brand for clothing and accessories is Warehouse, Topshop, Forever 21 and H&M.

    Are there any fashion trends that annoy you?

    Do you see “man buns” where you live? If so, do you just want to walk around with a scissors and cut them all off? Haha I do.

    Name us 3 fun facts about yourself not usually known.

    1 : I have OCD.
    2 : People see me as a lady but I’m actually a real slim shady.
    3 : I don’t believe in true love.

    Are there any quotes you live by?

    “Do what you feel in your heart to be right, for you’ll be criticized anyway by” – Eleanor Roosevelt

    What do you find attractive in a guy?

    Before knowing the guy, I love to look at their eyes and hair and the way they dress. Once I get to know a guy I like that they can teach you a new thing, humor, trustworthiness, good listener, honesty, and someone who doesn’t check out every girl in the world.

    How will you describe an ideal romantic date?

    On the rooftop of some really high building with a great view. Candles, music, rose petals. And I wish there could be like this round pillowed bed sitting/laying down area. We are on the bed laying down watching the stars talking and laughing. I’d loved anything as long as I’m with him.

    Thank you for taking your time to answer our questions on SimplySxy.  One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”?

    A sexy woman doesn’t need to reveal an inch of flesh, yet she can capture men. For me, a woman full of knowledge is sexy. I think you being you is sexy. Your walk, your talk, the weird things you do, the random things you say. It’s all sexy to me.

  • CEO and Swimwear Designer Laura Patricia on the Types of Bikini Every Women Should Own

    CEO and Swimwear Designer Laura Patricia on the Types of Bikini Every Women Should Own

    Who is Laura?

    Hi SimplySxy! It’s my pleasure and thanks so much for featuring me on your cool site. My name is Laura Patricia and I’m of half Sri Lankan and half Filipino descent. I have my own clothing collection called Urban Niche which specializes in swimwear, dresses and gymwear. Apart from that I’ve been modelling part time for about 7 years now and have been very blessed to appear in several local and international magazines such as FHM, CLEO, Debonair and even commercials for brands like Johnnie Walker and Axe. I’m also a freelance travel writer for Leisure Travel Magazine and I do emceeing and event management occasionally.

    2

    Tell us more about Urban Niche and how you started it.

    I started Urban Niche in 2013. I decided to do it as I’ve always been very passionate about fashion and the latest clothing trends. My focus for the brand has mostly been swimwear as I find that in KL there is sometimes very limited choices when it comes to finding a perfect bikini design that suits your body type. Being a bikini model for so many years, I’ve been truly blessed to meet so many people in the industry including photographers, models and makeup artists, some of whom I’ve become very good friends with. Everyone was so supportive when I decided to start the brand and I got so much help and support with all the photoshoots and fashion shows that it started to escalate really well. I now have a pretty decent following on Facebook and Instagram as well as a store in Paradigm Mall called Red’s Revenge where my merchandise is sold. I’ve also branched out into dresses and gymwear. I find the gymwear doing particularly well this year as there are more and more women getting into health and fitness these days. I’m actually considering venturing into a lingerie line as well next year if all goes well.

    3

    What types of bikini should every lady own?

    Well to me the most important thing when it comes to wearing a bikini is that a woman should feel comfortable and confident in it. If you feel sexy on the inside you will automatically portray that on the outside as well. Of course one should know their body type while choosing a bikini so that they know what design will fall best on them. I find that a lot of women like the monokinis that are the one piece swimsuits as it gives more coverage in certain areas to cover body parts that they might feel insecure about. Some ladies who are bolder and more daring like the bikinis which come in several types of designs such as bikini thongs, bandage bikinis, tanga bikinis, bandeau bikinis and even Brazillian bikinis. If a woman is keen on getting a perfect even tan, then I would definitely recommend the bikinis with less coverage to achieve that.

    4

    Do you have any hobbies?

    Yes I certainly do! I got very into health and fitness about two years back. I try to hit the gym at least 2-3 times a week. I also enjoy yoga and swimming as I find it very relaxing. I used to be a figure skater when I was younger but unfortunately I had a terrible knee injury and had to stop. I still do enjoy skating but can’t do it at such an intense pace as I used to before. For leisure, I enjoy shopping and watching movies during the weekend. I can also play a pretty wicked game of pool if anyone is up for it!

    5

    Which is one memorable travel encounter you have experienced so far?

    I would have to say my recent trip to Japan just last month was one of the most interesting and beautiful places I’ve ever been to. I was actually there for work to cover a few specific places for the travel magazine that I write for. It was truly a different experience for me as the whole history, culture and beauty of Japan was absolutely intriguing. I was in Osaka for a couple of days, and I really liked the winter fashion for women over there which I found super cute. The food was amazing as well and was definitely one of the highlights of the trip as I’ve always been a huge fan of Japanese cuisine. Apart from that, another memorable encounter was probably my trip to LA a few years ago. I was there as Miss Eaglerider Malaysia at the Long Beach Grand Prix which was so much fun! I definitely dig the Hollywood vibe and I just love the style and fashion over there. Everyone looks like they just stepped out of a movie or a magazine!

    7

    Where do you usually shop?

    I absolutely love H&M! I don’t think I’ve ever walked in there without buying something! Lol. Their recent collaboration HM X Balmain was so gorgeous but unfortunately most of the stuff was sold out by the time I got there. Apart from that, I like Miss Selfridge, Bebe, Zara, MNG and Topshop. I’m really into highstreet fashion and the urban look. For lingerie I like Lasenza and Victoria’s Secret as they always have really nice cuttings and cute designs. For shoes, I usually head to Charles & Keith, Aldo, Guess or Vincci. When it comes to makeup, I usually stick to brands that I’m comfortable with like MAC, Sephora, Bobbi Brown and Urban Decay.

    8

    What is the most expensive item you have ever splurged on?

    The most expensive item I ever splurged on was probably my Burberry Bag. It was a rather ridiculous price for it but it was so lovely I just couldn’t help myself! Lol.

    10

    Which is your favorite body part?

    I like my eyes. I like the way they’re shaped and I’ve been told by several people I have very feline like features. I think your eyes are the window to your soul and you can always read a person a little bit better by looking directly into their eyes. Plus which man can’t be disarmed with a sexy glance? 😉

    11

    Thank you for taking your time to answer our questions on SimplySxy. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”? 

    I think sexy is more of an attitude. It is a confidence with a touch of class. Of course I think every woman should groom themselves and make sure they look great for their man and even occasionally surprise him with some sexy lingerie after he comes back from a long day at work. However, it is not necessarily always related to physical appearances but can also sometimes be more of a mental connection you have with someone. To me, being sexy is being ambitious and independent because I think a woman should believe in herself first before trying to impress anyone else.

    How will you describe your fashion style?

    Fun, safe, quirky, daring, I’m pretty versatile and open when it comes to fashion style. I upkeep with the trend but I abhor following it blindly. I always believe style equates to confidence!

    Where do you get your fashion inspiration from?

    Emma Watson, CL from 2NE1, Victoria Beckham, Jennifer Aniston, Ayumi Hamasaki, just to name a few. And also renown designers like Tony Ward and Zuhair Murad. Aside from these amazing people, I get inspiration from my travels too!

    What’s the sexiest thing in your wardrobe?

    Black and white boudoir corset 😉

    Which are your go to brands?

    Every girl loves a Chanel and I’m not different! But aside from the big brands, I’ve always love indie brands like Keepsake and BNKR from australia!

    What’s the most expensive item you have splurged on?

    Travel and more travels.

    Do you have the urge to critic someone’s dress style if you see that it is a fashion catastrophe?

    Yes! I would definitely put it in the nicest way possible though.

    What items do you always travel with?

    Phone, camera and a gold token my grandmother left me.

    Have you ever experienced a crazy or frustrating moment on your travels?

    Yes, rushing for the train in Tokyo with food in my mouth cause I was just too damn hungry and their trains are too damn punctual (not a complaint!)!

    What guilty indulgences do you have for food?

    FRIEDDDD STUFFS. FRIESSSS!

    Funniest thing you’ve done or experienced?

    I’m a big klutz.. I drop stuffs several times a day and I have the worst sleeping faces. Which everyone around me thinks its funny! I love hiding in corners and scaring my sis every.single.day.

    What’s sexy to you?

    Remove all unsightly hair (pits, legs, lips) where it doesn’t belong, be well groomed, well styled and the confidence that comes will naturally make you feel sexy too!


    I currently run a budding Men’s Tailor (@assemblesg) with affordable pricings and guaranteed service! Looking good doesn’t mean you have to break the bank or listen to people pitch about things that doesn’t suit you! At Assemble SG, we bring out the gentleman in you, manners sold separately 😉

    I also run an online female fashion label (@sufficestore, suffice-sg.com) soon to be transformed into a one stop shop for all women out there with all sorts of quirky stuffs to suit you, your mood, your lifestyle. So, stay tuned!

  • Vivan Tng talks about fashion and food

    Vivan Tng talks about fashion and food

    Who is Vivian Tng?

    Hellos. I’m Vivian, also known as xchubbykitty. I’m currently 22, a full time student studying for my Diploma in Accountancy, Singapore. I own a blog and mainly blog about beauty and fashion. I have a major fetish over Hello Kitty and even dreamt that I would be one of it someday. (Okay, I think I’m in my own fantasy world.) Oh, and I love taking pictures.

    How will you describe your fashion style?

    I guess I don’t really have a fixed fashion style for me, I wear clothes depending on my mood. If I was feeling lazy, I would just throw on a pair of hot shorts with an oversized tee and a platform and head out.

    2

    What fashion rules do you live by?

    “If you wear it, be confident.”

    Where do you usually shop?

    Usually I would shop for my clothes at Scape or Bugis Street, if not for online blogshops, I usually get most of my stuff from Shop Princessa and sometimes Shop Sassy Dreams.

    1

    What’s the most expensive item you have splurged on?

    I guess it is a Prada wallet? Is that counted…

    Do you have the urge to critic someone’s dress style if you see that it is a fashion catastrophe?

    Nope I will never criticize but I guess maybe gossip among my good friends, because I believe each and every one of us have different fashion styles, although I may not like the style but you will never know if it will go in trend someday and you will wear it somehow.

    3

    What is your beauty regime like?

    I don’t think I have the perfect skin, nor complexion. But what I find is important is to always use the correct makeup remover/facewash. For me I have been a loyal fan of Biore. I just love their remover and facial foam. In addition I don’t put foundation unless on big occasions. Eyeliner and lip stick are my essentials.

    Which cartoon character best represents you?

    Not including Sanrio Characters, I think Blossom, from Powerpuff Girls. Because I think she is pretty bubbly.

    What guilty indulgences do you have for food?

    The funny thing about me is that I hate chocolate, but I love lava cake. Which I have no idea why. Not all though but majority.

    5

    Funniest thing you’ve done or experienced?

    Funniest thing I have done I guess will be grabbing a stranger’s hand while entering into the MRT train, because it was during the peak period so I just grabbed the hand thinking it was my friend and my friend stood shock on the platform when I entered the train.

    What’s sexy to you?

    Sexy to me is not only base on appearance but also being connected to your soul, living boldly and having no boundaries.

  • Get makeup tips from the fashionable Mafiaa Thanaree

    Get makeup tips from the fashionable Mafiaa Thanaree

    Who is Mafiaa Thanaree?

    Hey what’s up? My name is Mafiaa and I know it might sound too intimidating at first, but trust me, I am not like what you think right now. I am definitely not affiliated to any thugs or underground associations! I am like a mix of ½ Thai, ¼ Indian and ¼ Chinese. I am currently living in sunny (sometimes hazy) Singapore and I am at the young age of 23 years.

    How do you describe your fashion style?

    Simple, Comfy and Classic.

    Are you constantly following and being updated of the latest fashion trends?

    I would say that I am updated with the latest fashion trends. My interests lies in fashion and I love recording and documenting my daily outfits on Instagram. Additionally I do post make-up tutorials on both Instagram and Facebook.

    What type of clothes suit you best?

    I like clothes that flatter my body shape! Sometimes when I am running out of time but I still do need to look best in a jiffy, I would pick up my black playsuit, as not only does it emphasize my legs, which I believe to be my best body feature, it gives a simple yet classy look.

    How do you stay in such fabulous shape?

    First and foremost I am not perfect! My diet routine revolves around my mood, but I tend to avoid eating after 6 pm onwards and I believe in drinking lots of water. Though when I am hungry I still tend to snack on my favorites –  chia seeds, yogurt and fruits.

    What’s the best compliment you have received?

    Hmm.. I do not believe that I get compliments often from people, but from time to time, I do get questions on how I maintain my complexion and figure!

    What’s one overrated fashion accessory?

    Nothing is overrated! I believe that all fashion accessories compliment one another and nothing is wasted or deemed unnecessary.

    4

    Which item can you not travel without?

    My pillowcase! Haha! I know it sounds weird, but I feel at ease whenever I have it with me.

    If you had the chance to travel to any place in the world, where will it be?

    This is definitely an extremely terrible and difficult question! I love traveling so much, if only traveling was free and if I could split myself up I would love to be everywhere right now!

    What kind of music best describes you?

    I think I’m a little bit of everything…I can be R&B when I want to or Metal Rock only if you ask.

    Processed with VSCOcam with hb1 preset

    What’s sexy to you?

    Self-confidence! There is much more to it than physical appearance. Without self-confidence, one would never be satisfied of their appearances.


    I am in the midst of launching my online shop called “ ISI OFFICAL” and I have a YouTube Channel that I upload various types of make-up tutorials. I try my best to upload new tutorials regularly, depending on the amount of free time that I have. So hopefully, I would be able to garner more support on my projects!
