If you have been to the Island of Bali, you will most definitely heard of the Uluwatu brand of women’s comfy dresses. At the very least you might have heard of Uluwatu temple. if not never mind, this is not  for you.

Uluwatu Handmade Balinese Lace is from the the beautiful island of Bali.

Balinese children learn the skills to produce the finest Uluwatu lace from their parents, learning the techniques from a young age.

Lace work is called “krawang” in Balinese. Uluwatu’s krawang is made traditionally where lace is stretched on bamboo hoops and sewn by hand on foot-powered machines. Then they are carefully cut away with little scissors.

A single piece from Uluwatu lace can take up to five or more days to complete.

Uluwatu lace dresses are both beautifully designed and comfortable to wear. They are also very suitable for hot and humid whether, especially if you are traveling to some breathtaking breezy beaches and staying up to party during the long summer nights.

Binwani’s High Fashion at Affordable Prices @ the Curve

Fancy wearing a breathtaking and regal dress that will make you feel like a million dollar babe and becoming a ‘cam-whore’ at the same time? Then think no further….. just head down to Binwani’s! You surely won’t be disappointed.

Binwani’s: High Fashion at an affordable prices? Usually those words don’t go together very well. Oh well, you have to check out their store to confirm their store’s tag line! But one thing is for sure, their made to measure and ready to wear clothing lines are simply top of the line stuff. Don’t believe me, just take a look at their women’s collection featured at the Curve’s Run-A-Way Fashion Show yesterday. The models were beautiful but the flowing dresses, especially those lace-themed ones really caught my eyes….. their design were fabulous, elegant and simply breathtaking. I don’t know about the pricing but really, is there a price for looking elegant and beautiful? Some women would give an arm and a leg just to look half (or maybe three quarter) of what’s on offer. Seriously!

Bayview Hotel in Hualien – a home away from home

After a nerve-wracking and max-out adrenaline rush of the more than 6-hour taxi ride from the serene hot spring village of Lushan to beautiful Hualien via the breathtaking Taroko Gorge, the last thing on my mind would be the architecture or the interior designs of my next hotel – Bayview Hotel. However when we reached […]
