when the cure sang "friday im in love", i knew my heart belonged to to saturday. to me, saturdays are for waking up late, early bunches, strolling hand-in-hand, wind in the hair, playing without a care in the world, being yourself, being fun. my favourite homegrown label S A T U R D A Y by daniel loh and nic wong is exactly what saturday is to me, materialised into pretty jersey dresses, light airy tops and comfortable pants.

perhaps youve seen their clear channel ads?



they were also the only brand during the blueprint fashion trade show 2010 to snag a stockist in the big apple.
here's some of my favourite looks for their fall/winter 2010:





also, they did a show for vitaminwater's launch not too long ago at ion sky featuring their spring/summer 2011.
so hard to choose my favourite pieces!





i posted a few pictures the other time. i was wearing a dress from saturday at the event!



for international readers you can visit CATE to get their togs, they provide international shipping.
they do not carry all the designs from S A T U R D A Y, but you can find many pretty pieces on the site.
including my dress over HERE. i also have THIS.

alternatively, new yorkers can visit babel fair, 260 elizabeth street for your dose of saturday.

for local readers, do check out their SS11 at NICHOLAS, Marina Square (near the overhead bridge to suntec convention hall, opposite muji), tangs orchard and tangs vivocity women's wear department. prices range from $69 for a top to $399 for an elaborate long dress. i love how their long dresses and bottoms are also work appropriate! i trust that my readers have good taste and do not wear ugly "dolly" dresses to work, so you guys are gonna love these.



and now, i will be giving away three
S A T U R D A Y $15 vouchers (no min spending!) to 3 lucky readers (sorry, local readers only this time!), just in time to shop for your CNY clothes! all you gotta do is to email me your name, age and what do you like about S A T U R D A Y. all entries to be in by 27th jan, 1159pm so that i can mail it to you guys in time for last min CNY shopping!

wow those dresses are rather costly. do you ususally spurlge so much on labels? and what sizes do you wear for SATURDAY dresses? :)

actually i think the prices are justifiable for the quality of the dresses, most of the fabrics are imported from japan. i would splurge on wearable items that i think are of good material/stitching.

i never buy clothing items from disposable fashion brands like f21 anymore (their accessories are great though!) because the quality is shitty, ive had so many of my dresses/tops run out of shape after a few washes and its seriously damn sickening because i actually like them and its irreplaceable. so now i believe in investing in quality basics like these to save the heartache.

oh, i wear a uk 8 there, its their smallest available size.

I see, do you have brands to reccommend me for good quality clothings but still in reasonable price range?

How about shoes? Do you often get from Far East? I do get mine from there, cheap but can't last long ;(

hmm, what is reasonable price range to you? how about zara women? i prefer them to topshop.

i have small feet so it's difficult to buy shoes, so i'll have to try my luck to see if sizing run small or not for different styles. i like irregular choice, aldo and zara. occasionally tangs studio have nice shoes too. also, i buy boots from zara kids sometimes. :D
