Pick of the week - June week 1

~*Pick of the week - June week 1*~

My friend Kai was chatting with me online yesterday and she was asking me to post the pick of the week for her.

She is quite kancheong and wanted advice as to what she should wear for her Tatler’s New Look launch tomorrow (Kai, wish I could go with you too, I’m so envious darling ;).

So Kai, these dresses are for your viewing pleasure.

Dress no 1. Oscar de la Renta
Floral v-neck embellished gown

This gorgeous Oscar de la Renta canary yellow gown has exquisite floral embellishment on the skirt. Truly classy, truly sensational, truly princess worthy. Price unavailable (but confirm damn steep)

I bet you would have seen this seen before. I can’t remember who but a celebrity wore it to an award ceremony. Does anyone remember?

Guess Roberto Cavalli is topping the chart this week :P

Oops Kai, I guess I went a lil overboard. For your function, it’s better to stick to a cocktail dress instead.

Here's a selection of cocktail dresses that i thought look pretty decent.

Dress no 6. Roberto Cavalli

Kai, this one is especially for you. Since you said you wanted to wear your boots. Perhaps you can get some tips from this combination? =). I think it will suit your 'new look' theme for the launch. It's laced with hints of gothic glam.
