Selamat Hari Raya!

By Cynthia Lee (Guest Blogger)

Lagu raya rancak berkumandang

Budak kecil bertempiaran angpau di minta

Kami dari team YSK meminta ampun

Sekian lama update macam kura-kura

Pantun kini sudah tak berima

Apa nak di buat, masa tak mengizin =P

Selamat Hari Raya dan Selamat Menyambut Hari Kemerdekaan kepada semua pembaca YourShoppingKaki. Di masa cuti sebegini, sudah tentu ramai antara kita tidak mengira bangsa, agama dan budaya yang sibuk mengambil peluang cuti panjang untuk ziarah menziarah (melahap makanan orang), ber-shopping (sampai poket kontang) ataupun berehat secukupnya (sampai badan naik) =P

Tahun ini, di cuti yang panjang ini kita bukan sahaja meraikan Hari Raya Eid Mubarak, tetapi juga meraikan kemerdekaan negara tanah tumpah darah kita.

Sinonim dengan konsep 1 Malaysia, pada pendapat saya (yang mungkin kurang bernas ini) fesyen merupakan suatu jalinan 'kemuhibahan' (entah wujud ke tidak perkataan ini) antara kita yang pelbagai budaya, agama dan bangsa. Yang membezakan kita hanyalah stail yang kita tampilkan. Namun, bagaimanapun tafsiran fesyen di kalangan kita, matlamatnya hanya satu - ingin nampak cantik dan bergaya! ;)

Di bawah nama fesyen jugalah, anda-anda, saya, mereka serta pengunjung setia YourShoppingKaki yang sentiasa mendambakan kemunculan belog-belog yang dapat memberikan nafas baru dalam dunia fesyen.

Kalau di bandingkan 2 atau 3 tahun dahulu, pakaian muslimah hanyalah pakaian semata-mata. Kini, terdapat kategori fesyen muslimah yang sememangnya menarik perhatian saya yang bukan muslimah tau!

Kini, tiada istialah siapa yang tidak boleh memakai pakaian jenis apa. Misalannya, mereka yang menutup aurat tidak boleh membeli baju yang 'mengeksploitasikan' badan. Hello!! Kini dah ada inner. Bermacam-macam inner. Gaya dan stail pemakaian masa kini bagaikan telah di rombak arus besar dengan kemunculan banyak pereka / pengusaha butik muda yang sentiasa ingin memberikan nafas baru dalam persada fesyen.

Koleksi sopan tapi ranggi dari Stellar ;)

Cik Pinkku!! Nak shawl Yuna satu!! =D

Jumpsuit pilihan untuk muslimah dan bukan muslimah dari Lollysta.

Nampak kuih raya terus naik gian

Ketupat lemang juga di sumbat

Kalau dah kembang bimbanglah kemudian

Lus S Line dari Supermodel jadi pengubat

Di dalam mood nak beraya dan bercuti panjang ini, janganlah di lupa kesihatan diri. Badan yang sihat memberikan penampilan yang menarik. Jangan lah lupa senam-senam selalu =D

Exercise band dari Sexy Saucy Spicy. Yang tepi tu sayalah yang tengah ber-yoga =P

Bila sebut sahaja tentang dunia fesyen, kita juga tidak dapat lari dari koleksi kasut yang menyebabkan jantung berdegup pantas! Pilihan saya - kasut tumit tinggi. Setinggi KLCC kalau boleh =P Anda bagaimana?

Koleksi kasut yang saya idam-idamkan dari The Fashion Barrage

Di harap pada cuti Raya dan Merdeka tahun ini para 'fashionista' semua dapat meredah rumah sahabat handai dan saudara mara dengan stail paling mengancam dan menarik sampaikan mak saudara dan nenek terlopong mulut memandang lilitan tudung stail Yuna anda!! Selamat Merdeka Raya dari kami di YourShoppingKaki! <3

Selamat Bershopping!!

Product Review: Sheer Versatility

By Wei Ni (Guest Blogger)

Ever wanted an insanely versatile piece that can double up as an off-the-shoulder top, a oversized top, a casual skirt or perhaps just something to throw on to keep your shoulders warm.

Ponchos have gotta be one of the most neglected and often dismissed pieces of clothing around. It’s probably due to the fact that aside from wearing a poncho as just a regular top, people can’t see the versatility in it. So below, we’ve received a few pretty nifty handmade ponchos brought to you by Xisters Blogshop from their Xisters Xclusive collection!

Delicious mustard yellow chiffon poncho worn off-shouldered.

And the same mustard yellow poncho worn toga style! You can opt to wear this poncho alone or with a tank/spaghetti top inside, or any fitted mini dresses would do just as well. :) Feel free to add on a slim belt as well!

Super short length poncho in khaki brown, worn as a skirt! As this poncho is made out of chiffon, it is sheer so it’s highly recommended that you wear it with a pair of leggings or jeans (as pictured) with it. These make great beach skirts whereby the sheerness does not become an issue. :)

V-cut oversized poncho paired with a thick belt and shorts. I like how this particular cut of poncho paired with the wide belt reminds me of a kimono!

Superbly long, this lovely burnt orange chiffon poncho makes a great cover up for maxi dresses! As this particular poncho is longer than the rest, they look great when tied up at the waist! Another option would be pairing this poncho up with a long maxi skirt. :)

Dark green shimmery poncho! This poncho with it’s irregular hemline and wide enough collar makes this a great clubbing top! Pair it with leggings, skinny jeans or even a tight mini skirt with a belt of contrasting colour to get all eyes on you on the dance floor! :)

To find out more about these ponchos, head on over to Xisters Xclusive for more details!
As these ponchos are all handmade, you are totally free to CUSTOMISE your own poncho! Whatever length you want it, what kinda cut, what colour and material, these ponchos are fully customisable!

Price is negotiable depending on the cut, size and type of material you want.

Have you got your poncho on yet? :)

Till next time!
Wei Ni out.

Product Review: Goldilocks' Little Secret

Product Review on Hair Extensions!
By Cynthia (Guest Blogger)

Ahem..
Welcome to another camwhore session of me, me and me!!
What is a review without the constant 'syiok-sendiri' camwhore rite? :)
And a camwhore session sometimes gets mundane when you lack accessories
My review buddy, Wei Ni does it best when it comes to accesorising for her camwhoring session ;)

The Lady Gaga-Waga hugs a tree campaign *tsk tsk*

(don't you love the platinum wig!!? <3)

Pocahontas frills and street blonde!

Yup, those 'plastic' hair do wonders to give a transformation ;) In more specific terms, it is called 'kanekolan' hair - synthetic piece, either as a full wig or as clip on extension that functions to add volume or simply to give you a makeover.

Of course, if you have no intention to face the real world and just want to show off to the virtual world on your makeover, you can always Photoshop yourself into any desired style...

Do you like my Inverted bob? Spotted on Rihanna too! =P

(the photoshop version!)

Wei Ni got her Pocahontas straight frills from Melody Love Fashion. And I followed suit =P

big cocoon of hair I got here! ;)

I got myself the curly sets as I have always have straight hair and it is kind of boring having to be in nothing but this...

I attempted in getting a wig before I got the hair extension though. I think my big head refused to be submerged under that bush of kanekolan, because I looked like Luigi of Super Mario Brothers *__*

Before the taking over by Luigi

*__* full hair wigs just don't suit me!

Hair extensions are way easier to adjust and fix onto hair as it is secured with built-in clips. I find myself a tad bit insecure with a full wig. Obviously my big head can't fit well into the cap, hence it moves quite a lot.

The hair extension is way easier to manage. For RM100, it comes in a set of 4 pieces - which comes down to RM25 for a piece. You can share with another friend when buying because a set of 4 may be a bit too much if you are of a petite frame and with a small head. For my humongous head itself, I only used 3. I could have used the entire 4 sets, but waking up 45 minutes before an event doesn't leave me with much choice but to quickly finish up my make-up and hair and leave the house a.s.a.p!

The full hair wig on the left and the extensions on top of the lampshade =P

Oh! Perfect color that matches my hair color! See how it's almost seamless when clipped on?

As much as I would like to doll up, most of the time I lack the equipment and accessories to do it. I do not have a real comb. Yeah, those thing that you use to brush your hair nice and smooth. I just don't comb my hair. Hence, it is only natural that I do not have items like curlers, hair spray, hair gel or such. Which is why I end up having straight bunch of hairs in between the curls from the extension. Tada!!

I am sure one day, it will be a trend to have both straight and waves on one head. No?

I am pretty happy with the sets of extension and my friends seriously thought I have grew such lustrous hair in such short time. Yes! It blends in so well in colour and in texture that they got conned into believing it is real. Though they do not understand the concept of having straight hairs in between waves =P

Like real hair! No?

If you have always been wondering how would you look like in a more voluminous crowning glory and would like to wow the crowd with hair that need no go under the saloon treatment, head on to Melody Love Fashion and choose our preferred style of extension and experiment on!

One last camwhore from a contented buyer ;)

For RM100 a set of 4, perhaps I should try to get the straight set too and see how would I look with voluminous straight hair! =P Get yours HERE!

Happy Shopping!
