Pretty Dresses for the Meantime

Yes, I may dress like a guy, but! I am a sucker for pretty dresses. So, my short term solution while waiting for my hair to grow is to wear more dresses. Heehee. 

But before I show you some of my new dress-up ideas, here's a funny story. While looking for  inspiration at my most favorite site for pretty dresses - Lover the Label, I stumbled upon, get this - Love Label. It was in a British site called K&Co. (not to be mistaken with K&Company from Manila). While Lover the Label is from Oz, Love Label is stocked in British sites. I would assume it's a British label. How funny is that! Is it so hard to think of labels and store names for clothing these days? In fairness though, the dresses look nice. And the price? Way cheaper (as in 75% less than Lover):

Here is proof that it is good to keep one's mind open, in spite of the misleading name. I like Love, but of course, my heart belongs to Lover. To learn more about K&Co UK and Love Label, go here, you might find a few pieces you'd like too.

In the meantime, watch out for my picks from Lover the Label's S/S 2011 Collection. Be ready to fall in love!

Love You, Lover

Such a great collection from Lover the Label, considering it's Untitled, teehee! This is for S/S 2010-2011 for the Southern Hemisphere. In store August to October.

Gosh, I have a deep burning need for those blush brogues in my life!

Hello, Lover!

When I first saw dresses from Lover some time back, it was love at first sight. Here, check out the latest pieces available at net-a-porter...just lovely (hey you sailor dress, i.want.you)! If I took Lover home, Dear Hubby wouldn't be jealous, he wouldn't even mind it one bit (well he will, because the price tag is "Ouchy!") Hahaha!



Loved by stylish girls like Alexa Chung of MTV's It's On (here wearing what else, but a puff sleeve dress from Lover, note: MTV was smart enough to capitalize on this girl's style star status by chronicling her outfits and linking up actual if not similar pieces in her wardrobe to different shopping sites, so adoring fans can easily copy her look)...



And Kirsten Dunst and Michelle Williams (who both starred in previous Boy by Band of Outsiders lookbooks, my kinda girls! Heehee!), it's easy to see why Lover has gained such a cult following. It's girly without being overtly so. Cool girls can wear ruffles without looking like a silly bee.

If you don't know yet, Lover is an Australian label groomed to lure unsuspecting girls. Susien Chong and Nic Briand started selling Lover on a market stall in 2001 and let's just say, they've broken a lot of hearts along the way (Why does a dress have to cost upwards of $400? Pray tell me why!).



More temptations this way...Sigh...
