I’ve just received a few gorgeous pieces from ClubCouture but have yet to wear them out. My latest dress has got to be one of my personal favorites! The lovely lace dress with sweet heart neckline with a gorgeous bow has won some of my friends over even though I haven’t worn it out. They just happened to be at my place when the ClubCouture parcel arrived! Click the photo for the link to this pretty lace strapless dress!

But I will definitely wear this piece out soon and I’ll promise to upload the photos here on my blog.

I posted a ClubCouture contest sometime back ( details here) and thank you all for participating. Some of you sent me emails instead of posting the comment on the blog. I appreciate you all sharing a bit of yourself and what you like about renzze.com with me. This is the first time I held a contest on renzze.com and I wish I could give everyone a prize. Unfortunately there can only be one winner. If the response is good maybe I’ll be able to do up more contests next time!

And now for the winner!

Congratulations to Ivy Yeo.

You win this brand new lovely Lindsay Black Dress in size S  from ClubCouture’s current collection worth SGD59! I’ve informed ClubCouture of your winning and you should receive the dress shortly.

Ivy’s innovative use of a poem to convey her thoughts caught my eye. Kudos to you for being so creative.

Here’s her entry:

I was led to Renzze.com through Les Dames
A fashionista clad in beautiful ensembles of silk, chiffon, cotton and lame
Caught my eye and my breath she took
Went to her blog and I was hooked
What Renzee is wearing today?
Chloe, Bebe or Hermes whatever be it may
She looked stunning anyway

Fashion, food, travel, adventure and life
Her posts are interesting and variety is rife
Despite her claims of being an amateur
Her Canon entries reveal depth worthy of an author
How else can a picture a thousand words tell?
Love, action and energy they spell
Emotions evoked they capture so well

Endless are what I like and some reasons I may miss
What matters most is the lady she is
Ashley has beauty, brains and substance
She leads a life full of passion and abundance
Infectious is this zest of hers
Inspires she does readers like us
An avid visitor of this blog I am thus.

I must confess I love all things pretty and nice
Online shopping is not my sole vice
Shuttling between Singapore and Suzhou is a bore
Managing a company is my chore
Reading is my reprieve for brain clogs
Induced by stress from toil and slog
Panaceas are they: books, magazines and blogs.

I haven’t had time to post up new entires for my Taiwan trip but don’t worry they’ll be coming up soon… meanwhile here’s a sneak peak on some of the stuff I do while I’m back in Singapore… (other than work of course!)

I posted about being a ClubCouture Ambassador some time back in this post. And they arranged for all their 2010 ClubCouture ambassadors to come together for a small photo shoot session some time in December.

I take a multitude of photos everyday ( as you can see my blog is filled with all sorts of photos!) but some how a studio shot photo is still rather alien with me. You must find it weird cause I take holiday photos and outfit photos all the time! But it’s done in a casual, I don’t give a damn kinda way and my impression of studio shoots are that they are more focus on being glamorous. Another reason could be because of the the makeup! I’m a simple person with a simple routine… sunblock followed by eyeliner + falsies. Fast and easy and gets me out of the house in a jiffy (means I won’t be late for work!). No foundation, no eye shadows, no lipstick and sometimes not even blusher. And my last confession, I’m lazy to do my brows unless it’s for some big event. So you can imagine how uncomfortable having thick studio makeup might be on me! Luckily they had makeup artists there because I would be so lost if I had to do it myself.

The studio’s dressing room was quickly transformed into a girly joint. The girls having their hair and make up done while catching up or getting to know new people.

Flora and Kaitlyn, the lovely lovely people at ClubCouture even ordered McDonalds for those who skipped breakfast. The whole atmosphere was friendly and relaxed which is fantastic! It made everyone feel like a part of the team instead of just work. Holly Jean and I got paired up together for the shoot and it was really nice getting to know her. We were the earliest there so after we were done we had some spare time to discuss about what clothes from ClubCouture’s current collection we loved and wanted to take home with us!

I love Holly’s black lace dress and and I got it for myself too! It’s so hot that it got swept off the shelves soon after it was released. But if you are interested, they do have a 3/4 sleeves version of this same dress that ClubCouture just launched.

I know you guys all are dying to see the photos from the shoot so here you go!

I’ll also take this chance to introduce some of the other ClubCouture Ambassadors.

And girls being girls, we had to take even more photos backstage while waiting in turn for each other to have their photos taken! Most of the girls are experienced with studio photography. As for me, well, it’s an eye opener to see how everything runs and how composed these girls are when the bright lights are on them. They pose confidently and pout beautifully, making such wonderful ambassadors for ClubCouture! Hopefully I’ll learn a tip or two from these pros. =)

And with the generosity of ClubCouture, I was able to wrangle a freebie for my lovely readers as well!

I will be giving this brand new lovely Lindsay Black Dress in size S  from ClubCouture’s current collection worth SGD59 to one lucky reader!

I’m really glad to be a part of ClubCouture‘s family. I was smitten after the very 1st outfit they sent me. You all might recall the lovely black maxi with sexy straps at the back which I wore in Bali. ( Click here if you want to see the full post.)

ClubCouture is an international fashion label and have been prominent in the United States, United Kingdom and Australia. And I’m glad it has picked Singapore to expand its’ business.

It’s not everyday that a girl like me stumbles upon a fantastic well established online retailer that gives the reassurance and professionalism surpassing many boutiques’ services. Being able to work with a company that cares and listens to their customers and ensures high quality products is very important to me. I will never bring something I don’t personally trust to my readers.

ClubCouture brings in new arrivals daily so it’s difficult not to get tempted every time I go to their site. In fact I wore this black and white eyelet dress on my trip to Penang and garnered tons of praises even though it was such a simple design. These pictures are actually a sneak peek to my trip since I haven’t gotten around uploading the rest of the trip’s photos. I just had to share with you the lovely dress first!

Having designers from different part of the world means there’s something for everyone. Although their clothes comes in limited quantity to maintain exclusivity so if you see something you like, you better grab on fast! I had considered 3 dresses previously from their site but since I was abroad I decided to hold the ordering till I was back in Singapore. 2 days later, all 3 pieces were out of small sizes… Argh!!!! In the end, I went ahead and ordered 1 of the dress ( a long sleeve dress) in medium and I intend to alter it to fit. It was too pretty to just let go even though it was out of stock in my size. When I received the package, it was everything I imagined it to be and I was so glad to have ordered it! I’m gonna send it to the seamstress after Christmas and hopefully you’ll get to see me wearing it sometime in January!

I will still enjoy shopping at boutiques and travelling the world to find little fashion gems to add to my wardrobe collection but as far as online shopping for clothes go, I found my mecca in ClubCouture. And since it is international, it means I can send my girlfriends working, studying or living in US, UK and Australia surprise gifts by ordering through the site. It’ll save me all the hassle of going to the post office and having to pack the items neatly.

And in light of the coming Christmas spirit of giving, I have 2 great offers to share with you. Firstly, if you shop at ClubCouture , just enter RENZZE15 at the shopping bag before you check out and you will get 15% off your merchandise!

And the 2nd piece of good news is…

ClubCouture is currently having a Christmas Wishlist Giveaway!

Simply put, just click here ( or use the image link on my sidebar) to go to ClubCouture to start your Christmas List. Browse and add the items that you would love to receive for your Christmas presents and if you’ve been a good girl this year, Santa (or in this case, ClubCouture) might pick you to win $100 worth of items! One lucky gal will have her dreams come true every week! And the since there is no purchase necessary, there’s nothing to lose… so go and do up your wish list now!

I’ve already done mine =) Here I am sharing my personal ClubCouture wishlist below with all of you! I even added my own comments under each of my wish items! Friends and family, send me yours!

If you have a friend, family or love one that with the best of intentions always seems to give you gifts that you don’t really fancy, you could also email them your wishlist so they don’t have to search high and low for that perfect gift for you. Wouldn’t it be nice to have that gorgeous ClubCouture satin dress you saw on the site instead of a copy of a book you already bought for yourself or a vase that looks pretty but have no place in your home. Make the spirit of giving easier on your love ones and yourself!

The best part? Whether you win the Christmas Wishlist Contest, or get a present from a good pal or buy it as a Christmas gift for yourself, you will always emerge looking fabulous at late-night soirées or Christmas parties with ClubCouture’s glamorous styles.
