Tea For Two







It has been a year since my last trip to Seoul, and boy, do I miss that city so!
That city is amazing. Apart from not understanding the K-pop fad, I love everything about Seoul. No one sleeps at Seoul. We would take a nap after dinner, then wake up at 11pm to go shopping at Dongdaemun. Life has only just begun then, and that is when the area would light up and welcome the world for a night of crazy shopping.
Buildings after buildings, we were treated to countless labels, and we spent our nights combing the endless racks of Korean fashion - dresses, jackets, accessories, shoes... they've got them all covered. The sheer options drove me mental. I remember lugging all kinds of printed pants and textured skirts back home, and they do pretty mean shirts and blousons. Korean fashion is quite a league of its own, and it is one so wearable and hard to not love.
So, imagine my joy when I discovered I Wanna Closet and its collections of quality Korean apparels. Yes, all made and shipped in from Korea. That is quite the closest to authenticity you can get - with very affordable price tags, of course. Very thrilled when the owner told me to pick a favorite outfit, but everything on the site is so pretty and I had a hard time deciding on only one. And as I am sipping my Silver Needles while writing this post now, I have another tab opened; surfing and ready to shop for my next.
Meanwhile, here is my take on the ever popular Korean fashion - all soft, dainty and feminine. My mom cannot stop gushing over the intricate lace cardigan, while I am still trying to come to terms with how well-cut the lilac skirt is!
