Chloe Khaki Cotton Shirt by Phoebe Philo

Sell US$189

Rare khaki cotton shirt by Phoebe Philo for Chloe, this is so reminiscent of her more recent work for Celine, with its clean & simple utilitarian chic lines, incredibly versatile piece that would be a fabulous addition to any wardrobe. Button closure under hidden tab. In excellent, as new condition.

I thought I should let this go, as it is cruel to leave it unworn in my overcrowded closet. My loss is your gain; inspired by a 'conversation' with H of PretaporterP, I will once again attempt to clear my wardrobe and will be listing more items for sale, so watch this space.

Rachel Roy Leather Jacket

Size US 6 (fits US 4 as well)
UK 8-10

This is from Rachel Roy's mainline collection, not her diffusion line, and retailed for well over US$1000.

I have not worn it myself, but lent it to my mom to wear it once for 2 hours. In pristine, as new condition.

Beautiful soft leather, fully lined, with subtle tweed detailing at the cuffs and under the lapels. Cute little round brass buttons, expert tailoring at the lapels, and two front pockets. Beautifully tailored/cut so that the hem curves downwards to be longer at the back, and clever pleating detail on the collar.

This transseasonal jacket can be worn casually during the day with a distressed tee and jeans, or in the evening with a dress and heels. I love this jacket, but the door hinges on my closet have come undone (seriously), due to too many jackets and coats (embarrassing much?). My loss is your gain.

Sell for US$189 for a quick sale.

Fendi Runway Cap-sleeved Dress BNWT

RRP US$2100

Exactly as seen on the runway (without the belt).
Brand new with tags, never worn.

Sell for US$499

White cotton cap-sleeved dress with oversized flap pockets and a floaty skirt. Fendi dress has a sweetheart backline and a zip at the back to fasten, a paneled section throughout, a stitched band around bust and an exaggerated waistband. 100% cotton. Dry clean.

This dress could even be worn as an easy breezy wedding dress, to a gala, or with flat sandals to a beach party, so versatile! I bought this dress with the intention of wearing it to a party, but by the time the occasion arose, I realized I was pregnant, and my chest measurements had uhum...changed (boo hoo!). My loss is your gain. The beauty of this dress is that it is easily accessorised without losing its wow factor so mirror the runway look and adorn the waist with a statement belt.

Shop at Brigadeiro's

*Prices Reduced*

I have reluctantly decided to start clearing my wardrobe again. During & after my pregnancy I bought a few gorgeous pieces that have not seen light of day, especially due to the fact that I seem to forget that I am no longer a US 4 (at the time of purchase I thought I would be losing my pregnancy weight whilst nursing, alas, that has yet to happen). The next few days & weeks I will be letting go of some these items *snif snif*, and perhaps some shoes as well, so watch this space:

Richard Chai Draped Silk Chiffon Galaxy Dress
RRP $1775

This stunning silk chiffon dress has asymmetric panels that drape to the waist on the front and back, with a pleated neckline and drop waist. It is exactly as worn on the runway, but the colourway isslightly different, it was hard to capture the actual print, the colours are not as obvious as in the pictures (more like it is shown on the runway), but I wanted you to be able to see the detailing.

Sell for US$299.
Brand new with tags still attached.

Bsouria brown pleated skirt with side 'tail'

This skirt is too cute! Sadly I feel like I am too old to be wearing this...the main part of the skirt is mid-thigh, with the cascading side 'tail' going past the knee, such a gorgeous silhouette, playful yet funky...

Fully lined, and a cute pleated style. My picture does not do it justice, as it has that slight 'schoolgirl' look...Fully lined, invisible zip & button on the side. The red on the top part of the skirt (i.e. in the shadow) is the true colour, a gorgeous cherry red...

The cross-stitching on this top is so cute! As are the gold 'x's along the neckline and armholes. Inside the straps are clever little ribbon & press-stud buttons to secure your singlet or bra strap (love details like that). In as new condition, the skirt below matches this demi-sheer knit top, although one can wear them separately, of course.

Brian Reyes runway ivory silk dress US2 BNWT

Incredibly reluctant and tentative sale, as I may change my mind about this. Purchased when I was a small US 4 I thought I would lose the weight I had gained at the time to fit into this dress, as it was so so stunning. Unfortunately, the scales went the wrong way, and I never got to wear it! I am still hoping for a miracle, hence I have not tried to part with it until now (I may still be in denial). The dress for sale is exactly as above, and comes with a 100% silk slip, and the dress itself is 100% silk. Absolutely stunning! Could be worn as an evening dress or even a 'modern' wedding dress...

New, never worn, with tags still attached. This dress by brilliant designer Hussein Chalayan is exactly like the one in the runway, but in a more wearable fabric of pink & ivory silk. LOVE the detailing around the halter neckline, closes with a side invisible zip, fully lined. Unfortunately it has been sitting in my wardrobe unused, with tags still attached.

Original Tsubi/Ksubi Slim-Leg Jeans in Indigo AUS 8

2009-06-18T13:55:00.000+09:30

Arguably the coolest jeans on the market. Australian surfing brothers neo-punk label TSUBI is world renowned - even more so since Robbie Williams, Kate Moss, Kylie Minogue, Nicole Richie & others have embraced them as their jeans of choice. These Original Tsubi Cult jeans (they're now called Ksubi) are BNWT (ie. stickers) and have never been worn, nor its length altered. My close-up pics are more true to colour, and they are not flared as shown on the model (they are almost straight-leg with only the slightest hint of a bootcut for an incredibly flattering cut), unless like the mannequin, your thigh is also the width of your wrist, haha. Sadly these do not fit me, or I would keep them, or take a picture of them on to show the fit.

It is the original & super-flattering slim-leg style in the Vintage Indigo wash, which is now impossible to find. Tagged an AUS/UK size 8 I find these jeans run slightly small for AUS sizing (roughly a size jeans 26). US$129

I will add measurements shortly
