Style Forecast: Spring/Summer 2017 (Korea)

Spring is finally here. (At last!)

This means it's time to freshen up your wardrobe!

Yep, that's right. No more sweatpants (admit it, you've worn them at least once this winter)! Or boring black tights! Say goodbye to your winter coats. But make sure they're clean and put away nicely---you gotta treat them nice because they are the key to survival in Canadian winters :) 

So, what's in style in S/S 2017? 

If you're a K-Drama addict or an Instagram junkie like me, you've probably seen some recurring themes in the outfits of Korean celebrities/ models already. 

Here are things that I've learnt about S/S 2017 K-Style :

1. Pop of Colour: Yellow, Grey-toned Pastel Pink



2. Tops/ Outerwear
  • Elegant and Classy: Floral patterns, lace decor on sleeves/collars & Ruffle Tops 


  • Casual and Comfortable: Oversized Hoodies, Linen Shirts & Tops with Text/Logo

  • Professional and Chic: Beige Trench Coats, Blazers & Collared Shirts

3. Bottoms
  • Denim Jeans(Bell), Linen Pants/ Skirts/ Dresses
4. Accessories: Caps, Straw hats & Scarves 

---(For handbag lovers: Dainty cross-bodies would be a great choice for this spring and summer.)

5. Shoes: Flats, Sling-back heels, White Shoes & Running Shoes



These are just some of my limited observations from dramas/ celebrities/ fashion magazines :) So feel free to comment below if you have something to add/ something you'd like to point out!

Comparison and Reviews: KoreanBuddy VS Avecko

Image
Hello there :) How's your day? Like what I've promised before, here's an in-depth review of the 2 Korean buying service companies that I use: Koreanbuddy and AVECKO Gentle Monster Installation at Lotte Duty Free Department Store (Myeongdong) May 2016 (**Scroll all the way down to get a discount code for Koreanbuddy!**) But first, let me do a quick introduction of the two. 1.  AVECKO The Korea-based company started as a seller on eBay in 2010. In 2013, they launched the website and started providing buying service for overseas users in 2014.  They mainly focus on buying Korean cosmetics, skin care and fashion goods (not limited to these products). On their website, AVECKO also provides several links to Korean department stores/ TV shopping sites. But as long as you have an URL to the item you'd like to purchase, they could buy it for you :) Nonetheless, their service does NOT include:  -Buying from private sellers (Twitter, Facebook, Naver b...

Tutorial: Online Shopping in Canada-Preparation

Worried about leaking your personal information online? Fear of your parents' wrath when they see that online purchase on your credit card bill/your doorsteps? Well, what if I tell you there's a way to keep your mind at ease while you shop online? (shh...) 1. Purchase a Prepaid Credit Card A prepaid credit card is the solution to making an online payment without the use of an ACTUAL credit card. There's a unique card number on each one and the amount of money it holds is printed on the card. Where can you get a prepaid credit card from?  You can get one from Shoppers Drug Mart / a 7-11 in your area.  *Remember, think carefully before you buy it. There is a strict  no refund policy because the prepaid card would be activated as soon as you pay. * This is how it looks like:  You'd have to ask the cashier for the card because they don't display it in stores anymore. And they're completely sealed with a plastic cover too. For security reasons...

Tutorial: Online Shopping in Korea from Canada-Basics

With the Hallyu wave, it's impossible to miss out on the current trends in Korea. Whether you're a K-Pop/Kdrama fan, or a K-Beauty enthusiast, or just someone who likes Korean street style, there must have been a moment where you thought to yourself: I wish I could go to Korea right now! Incheon Airport at Night  (taken in May 2016) In South Korea (and many other places such as Hong Kong and Taiwan), they provide buying services. Once you start using it, you can't really turn back. Online shopping is addictive... Store in Garosugil (May 2016) What it is: Buying service companies (or in some cases, Instagram business accounts) are essentially people who can help you shop locally and have it shipped to you at a cost. With their help, you can shop online (NAVER blogs too!) or even have them visit the physical stores( albeit at a slightly higher cost, depending on the business). Shinsaegae Duty Free Zone (Incheon Airport Departure): Gentle Monster Dis...
