Outfit: An Oriental Christmas 2

As promised, I’ve got another outfit for you from my Christmas outfits
with an oriental twist series. With small slanted eyes and puffy cheeks, I
won’t be denying the fact that I have Chinese blood in me. Hence, sometimes
it’s nice to step into the Chinese culture and discover all the exciting things
it has to offer.
Every country has a characteristic traditional costume and the most
recognisable one for China is Cheongsam or Qi Pao. That’s for the ladies,
anyways. Although some traditional costumes are intended to be worn during
celebrations and formal occasions, cheongsam on the other hand is a fashion
statement that can be worn anytime, anywhere by anyone. You don’t have to be Chinese
to wear such a beautiful dress, it’s become a type of dress that would fit
anyone and everyone.
If you’re looking for Chinese dress than you can get them in China Town
or online. Kaii Zhang has a great
selection of dress and this Floral Print Knee-Length Chinese Dress and I was lucky enough
to feature this dress on my blog.
Unlike Chinese Blossom Cheongsam Dress, this Floral Print Knee-Length Chinese
Dress
is made of linen and
looks slightly less daring. It’s mid-length, but has a slit opening on either
side, which makes it look reserved yet playful. It’s the perfect dress for a
dinner party and there’s really not much you need to do to style it up because
the colour combo and patterns speak for themselves!

What I’m Wearing:
MAC lipstick in MAC Red
Sheer Black Kimono –
old
Heels from Aldo
Layla Satchel from Fiorelli

Once again, I took my own photos with a tripod, which explains why there isn’t much creativity in terms of shooting distance!!! Nevertheless, I’m
actually very pleased with these photos. 🙂 What do you think? Do you like them?

Also, which oriental outfit do you like the most? This one or my first Oriental Outfit?

    LOVE this! I actually hardly noticed the shooting distance until you mentioned it, they turned out very nicely. I have been getting more and more interested in Oriental style lately, it can be so decadent and fascinating! x

    Lovely dress and the bag is also so pretty! At first, I thought it was Michael Kors 🙂
