Quirky Soul Sews!!: March 2010

Buying Dilemma..

I love attending enquiries.. You can keep asking and I can keep replying. serious. regardless of u buying or not. but when u decides not to buy, maybe you can end the reply with a - "Thanks for the assistance, but I have decided not to take the item" and not leave in silent. Because I do not know if I should save it for u or not.
Those who want me to reserve, aren't u glad I have no time frame? I also do not mind that u decided not to take it. But if u do want to take it but need some time to recoup your money to buy, tell me.
Can always blast me a mail saying that " U have found a better item else where, or gone broke, or change of style etc.." or "Gimme 2 more weeks. I need to save another 2 more dollars"
Point is - Get me updater ler...
Because there are other people who may be in dire need to get the particular item to wear for functions, for gifts, to go dating or simply to satisfy their buying impulse..
They need an answer - I got no answer - Can u answer ?
Then, they get frust - I get no answer - can u answer?
It's like making call to a call centre to check on your almost overdue bill, but operator failed to give u details, and u get irritated and ur bill got cut-off.. -__- (hmm... getting more and more irrelevant)
Point is - ur feedback and status is always appreciated
see how it is like a chain?

Super Mini Astronaut

The stuff that I am posting lately is becoming way out of my initial intention to post items of Size 12 and above =D

No, I am not getting slimmer by day..Rememeber my initial attention of sewing my own stuff? Sewn =D

But way out of the intended size... =D

Now I learnt that to make a smocked back for a size 12 person, you may need more than 50 inches of length of material. Here I have used only 40 inches and the outcome... a smocked tube top, only fits a size 4 to 8 =(

Dear all petite girls, please come and get this off my storage! Luxe looking smocked tube. Not the ordinary stretchable cottony type. Dual color shimmer wei!! Good to be worn from morning till nite!

Bling bling!!

Exact color. Look at the smock part. Neat or not? That's the wonder of home made. With patience and love.. =)

Blimey Bling

I think I am in so into this piece.. the next minute if any hot guys see this and ask me out to go for a session of dance and club, I will buy it over!

Yes, it's not mine :(

Belongs to a friend who is not an impulse buyer. Simply a generous buyer who never think much :P

This is how high it will fall if you are 164cm

This is not how it is worn - with a long skirt. You may appear silly like me

Please check the possibility of flashing your undies before u leave the house

This is my belly anf my almost flat ass. And of course my ultimate padded bra.

The slithery effect of nicely arranged sequins

NEW

A 2 layer piece. There is an inner lining attached so that the sequins do not poke you and gives a solid black base.I totally forgot to capture the back image- it's a raceback type.

She originally bought for RM80 from some boutique. Decides to sell off the day after. She is not used to the glitteratti of sequins :D

Size : Small to Large (but not anything larger than me)- ask me for the measurement

Reasonably yours for

They Call It The Terms and Rules, We Call It The Buying Ethics

All items are NEW or NEW pre-loved unless stated.

For pre-loved items worn, generally not more than twice. I try not to wear the same outfit for every events attended :)

IDYLIC AND CONFUSED?
-Feel free to browse and ask question, and most probably make friends too :D

PURCHASES
-I leave you to you to decide to purchase or not after enquiries :) . Do not pay unless you are sure of buying. Refund is a waste of time you know - going online, typing in accounts for money transfer, getting TACs..

RESERVATION

Why reserve when you are not sure and I am also not sure if you want it or not. Impulse decision sometimes changes. I leave you to play with your impulse mind first. If it's sold to someone else, then let's call it FATE :)

-Goods sold are not exchangeable if it's already delivered to your door step. As long as it's still in my hand, I am open to opinions, queries and exchanges. I am kinda patient.

PAYMENT ISSUES?
-Want something but can't afford to pay all at a go? Let me know. Get it paid in instalment. But it's gonna be rare since the stuff are sooo reasonable! :)

DELIVERY
- to be made after completion of payment. Do remind me if I need to return you your extra bank-ins.

POSTAGE
-The normal postage rates applies. Where possible, I will absorb that :) But don't ask to negotiate on a RM8 item to COD and have the postage waive. That's like giving u free items :)
-Unless specify, postage will be via POSLAJU.
-COD - to enquire within.

SWAP

-I do consider. Why not. But. Look. At.My.Size.First before enquiring. A size 8 dress can go only as far as my head and no where else. I am a size 12 growing to a size14. let's hope I shrink soon... :)
