Everything on Ohvola.

its public holiday today!
wasnt intending to do a review actually. HAHAH. but my photos were not uploaded yet. LOL.

so, i am a fan of ohvola items lately. hence a post specially delicated to ohvola. i buy at every single collection. LOL. a truly ohvola fan.

Ohvola Baroque Peplum top in green, size M


it was a love at first sight. i strongly believe in the fact that you got to love the prints at first sight. afterall, there are hardly any similar prints. and if you think twice abt the prints, it means that you don really like it. HAHAHA.

i am a floral person. i have come to accept the fact that most of the printed items doesnt have a good quality.
mostly, cottonish. if there is one material i absolutely hate, its cotton. LOL. very prone to furring and no matter how much you iron it, they crease too easily. and i cant accept it.

Prints: LOVE. rich, dark and vibrant. as i look at the photos again, i am a tenny bit regretful i sold mine away. so many flowers all fused into a fabric. HAHAHA.

i prefer my green prints over the bluish prints. HAHAHAHA. and because its so dark, there is not need for lining. absolutely non-sheer. and because if this, i sold it. i don know why i don like anything without lining, even though there is no need for one. i treat it as inadequate workmanship and that doesnt justify the price i pay. LOL. O.O

Sizing: size M is a little loose for me at waist. (abt 1" across too big. i think it measures a 14" waist across) which i don really like it. i think peplum tops should be fitted at waist to accentuate your waist. but if you think positively, the slight loose at waist = more comfortable and more buffet friendly.fits me comfortably at ptp! enough allowance for me to breathe normally.

as a whole, size M for ohvola tops fit me good. (:
usually.

i shall be very honest. i intend to sell this top off when i first received it. its my first yellow top and i don really like it. it feels weird. T.T why didnt i cart it in white. LOL. i always have this thinking that lace should be in white. in the most original and traditional form; pristine white.

coloured lace emerged in at attempt to take over the boring whites. HAHAHAH.haiya. which is why, i don know i gave in to temptation. partly because i have too many white lace tops. LOL.

until i tried this top and reviewed it. yellow looks good with black/purple/blue - the colour of my bottoms.\ i shall keep this top and wear if i cant sell it.

Design: i realise all my lace tops from ohvola are made from different designs of lace.
er yes, i have most of the lace tops that they launched recently. XD i know its a bad habit.

this yellow top has got flower and leaves motifs!
so pretty.

an unique twist abt this top is the chiffon shoulders portion. so that it has the, not another similar top in your wardrobe. LOL.

sizing: size M fits me good. comfy at ptp! >oh ya, like all tops with a side zip, you cant run away having the zip protruding out at the sides when you wear certain bottoms (refer to the picture where i paired it with the LB miranda cobalt skirt) if you are particular abt it, take a careful look at the mirror before heading out! some bottoms doesnt make the zip obvious.

Sizing: this top is not comfy for me at shoulders/arms. its a little tight. T.T and i think i look very bulky in it. T.T why me so big size.

but, its very cheap though! thats the only comforting pt.

Design: probably because i treat this as a t-shirt instead of a usual blouse, i am ok with it not having inner lining. it really does look like a t shirt. HAHAHA. i am having double standards. Maybe because this top is very cheap, justify for the no lining fact. LOL.

anyway, pls skip this top if you are not a truly peplum fan. the peplum featured is kind of wavy. if the peplum you like is the subtle/flat kind, say no to this top. 

i attached a close up pic of the fabric! this should be the fabric ohvola use for their textured material. (i realise this material doesnt come with lining. peplum skirt no lining, peplum dress also no lining)

OMG!!!  i realised one of my petals detached!!! look at the pic!! OH GOD. nvm, i don intend to sell this anyway. i realise alot of things in pictures. HAHAHA.

2 main things to note for this top.

1. there is a side zip. as this top is very fitting and hugging to the body, the side where the lining is sewed to the zip appears longer than the side that didnt. i realised it when i was taking photos.

its not a defect, the inner lining used is not one side longer than the other. its just one side sewed/ one side didnt, hence the problem.

2. ok. this is serious stuff. if you bought this from a reseller. pls check that the crochet used has similar colour. i bought one for stellina and it turns out that, her top has got different shade of white front and back.

i think the colour difference is kind of obvious.

can you imagine how shock i am. front is white, back is cream. if you bought this top, pls go and check that the front and back uses the same shade of white. it will be easy to differentiate when you look at the zip. (:

i am relieved that only one top has the defect. LOL.

Sizing: this is a very fitting top =  i find it flattering. of which, i like. HAHAHA. -slap myself- this top ensures you dont overeat. cause it rather tight at tummy. XD

i cannot gain anymore weight. need to maintain weight liao.

i like the exposed gold zip behind; made of good quality. oh, did i say i almost freaked out and start cursing ohvola for manufacturing such a small top cause i thought the only zip is the gold zip behind??? to my relief, i realised there is a hidden side zip. HAHAHA. phew.

Quality: i rmb it very clearly that ohvola mentioned in the blog preview that this is quality assured. indeed it is!!! next time, pls trsut ohvola use of QUALITY ASSURED. LOL. very good quality. the quality can fight with my LB Covet walsh top.

Design: this is my MOST PRETTY crochet top!!! like the ends (where the lining is shorter) like the exposed gold zip behind that spells class. and it looks very good with skirts or shorts.

and luckily, i bought it in my favourite white. LOL.

seriously, this top wins the famous LB Covet Walsh top. LB Walsh top is kind of big and flare. Ohvola version is more fitting to your curves and hence more flattering.

end of review!! PHEW. This review took me 2 hours! Oh god.
