CottonOn Vermont Swimsuit @ RM44

NEW! NEVER WORN! STILL WITH HYGIENE STICKER. PRICE SLASHED FROM RM46!

My sister lives in Hong Kong and she bought this piece without trying, confident that she could fit into it! She couldn't. LOL (sorry, sis!). Anyway, this was purchased for HK$229 (about RM95). She gave it to me but, unfortunately, my torso is too short, and the waist part will bunch a bit on me.

The piece still has the hygiene sticker (you know, those plastic stickers always on swim bottoms) - proof that it has never been worn. Super affordable as these are going for RM129 in stores, if not mistaken. Nice royal blue colour.

Size XXS

SUPRE Kaftan @ RM22

PRE-LOVED

This top was purchased from Supre online. Worn less than 5 times, it's still in perfect condition. It's a rectangle shape when laid flat. It can be rolled up and turned into a cute scarf too! Though labelled XS, this airy kaftan can fit up to larger S size.

Versatile and very pretty, this chiffon top will take you anywhere!

Labelled XS

NEW WITH TAGS Cotton On S-Aviators @ RM37 (FREE HARD CASE)

NEW!

Bought for nearly RM50, this one is going for RM39  RM37 (price slashed!!). Never worn and gives you a really cool look. Comes with a free rose gold coloured hard case worth RM19!

Little Black Book Maxi @ RM33

**Don't mind the wrinkles in the dress. It's been folded up way too long in the closet :)

PRE-LOVED. PRICE SLASHED FROM RM35!

Worn to a wedding reception once upon a time. This toga maxi was from Little Black Book at Subang Parade. Material is slightly stretchy with a satin sheen to it. With inner lining. This dress was one of my favourites. The A-line skirt is great for hiding bulges and stuff.

Colour: Chocolate
Length is about 138 cm

The shady side of life

I don't know bout you guys, but I'm usually having trouble finding the right shades for my face. What looks good in the shop doesn't seem to look as good outside.

I've had one pair which fitted me perfectly. A pair of pasar malam aviators. Unfortunately, they've reached the end of the road :(

So I recently went on a bit of a spree (again!) and ended up with more than a few pairs which I actually didn't really like. So what else is new, eh?

These will go on the blog soon. New ones, and bought from Cotton On. Watch this space for 'em. 

Here's to a great weekend, ladies!

FOS scarf @ RM5

PRE-LOVED

A super sweet piece gotten from FOS. White scarf with orange floral motif on the ends. Length is typical of a scarf. Lightweight yet provides enough coverage for cooler days. Going for only RM5!

The dictator of style - rantings and what not

Greetings, ladies!

So today I'm taking some much needed time off from work to just chill out. Too bad it's so hot here today. Anyway, I was doing some people watching at the mall's food court today and got sore in the eyes.

Ok, so you know how the low back/open back/no back trend is worn by almost every girl in town? And you know that these styles need very specific undergarments, right? So anyway, this girl I noticed, was wearing a classy peep back top in black. High front but with a lil' opening in the back. But to my horror, she was wearing a cream coloured bra and the hooks were showing! 

Oh, dear! Such a shame as her entire outfit was basically perfect. That little fashion don't-even-think-about-it just ruined it for me. My advice to you ladies out there, invest in some nipple tape or backless bras.

I'm an avid fan of Cotton On, so I can tell you, their stick on bras are perfect. Some of those silicone-ish bras, well, they're hideous under fitted tops. They just make your boobs look disfigured, like someone's pinching them under your top. But these from Cotton On are just nice. You get a nice smooth look.

My personal favourite though is still and always will be nipple tape! They're great when you're boobs are still perky enough to not need a bra! ;)

Bareback Khaki Midi-Dress @ RM 33

NEW, NEVER WORN! PRICE SLASHED FROM RM35!

U-Back dress for casual days. Khaki coloured and made of stretchy cotton lycra. Midi-length and versatile.

FITS XS - M (add about 3" stretch to stated measurements)

Length: 40"
Pit - Pit: 31" - 32"
Waist: 24"
Hips: 33"

Arrow Blazer @ RM30

WORN ONCE. PRICE SLASHED FROM RM37!!

This one was bought from Parkson. I wore this to an interview and this can be considered my lucky blazer. It was the one I wore to my 2nd interview and I nailed the job. Though labelled XS, it can fit a typical size S quite well. I've lost quite a lot of weight since, so it doesn't fit me very well any more. Letting this got for a fraction of the original price. Very classy piece which has been lying in my closet for over a year.

Photos taken under natural side light thus the colour. It's actually black in colour.

SIZE XS (fits up to S)

Hi All!

Been doing major overhaul on my closet. There's still some more dresses to be thrown into this blog. Hope I get the chance to do it tonight. Anyway, I'm thinking of expanding into this full time - as in bringing you guys more new dresses while maintaining the low price.

I don't usually wear chiffon "foofy" dresses, but it seems to be the trend on other shops. Maybe I should jump on that bandwagon?

Drop me a line at tru.below50@gmail.com to let me know what sort of stuff you guys would like to see here.

Have a great week ahead!

Cheers! =)

NEW PIECE! NEVER WORN! PRICE SLASHED FROM RM40!

Bought this from a local blogger (as per photo credits). She makes lovely dresses and I loved this piece so much I bought it. Never had the chance to wear it though. It's comfy with excellent fit and great for dinners. So, as all dresses that have been in the closet for too long, this one needs to go to an owner who will actually wear it!
