Five Things I Love About Modern Tailor

2012-03-26T18:38:00.003-07:00

It’s time for me to reflect on why I am supporting Modern Tailor, not only because I handle marketing but also because I am a paying customer. Yes, I’ll disclose that I get discounts of course. *Cheeky Grin*

1. I can choose any fabric I like – seriously! I love checks, reds, stripes, blues, yellows and blues. It is incredibly difficult for a woman to find a dress shop that sells decent business shirts – in colors and patterns I like.

2. I can order a standard design when I feel like donning a conservative, professional look. I can revise the design to make it more edgy and modern yet still professional.

These days, I can barely find a shop that would sell a business shirt in the fabric and style that I want. I remember walking 6 hours around the Mall of Asia looking for any shop that sells business shirts for women. Imagine how happy I was to find one! In the exact red/blue color and check cotton fabric that I want! I immediately grabbed it without even looking at the price. As I was about to pay, I saw a freaking bow at the back! What-the-Fart…

I thought, oh well, I guess I can take that off. I was standing at the counter, clutching the shirt, thinking over and over and I decided, maybe I should try fitting it first. So I went in the dressing room and tried the shirt… My disappointment turned into frustration when I started buttoning up the shirt. I guess that collar didn’t really fit my small head after all.

3. I love the discounts. Did I mention that there’s nowhere in New Zealand or Australia where I can find a business shirt for women for less than $90? Not in 100% cotton. Not in my expected level of quality. And to top it all… not my fit. The number 4 reason – a shirt made according to my measurements.

4. Yes you can enter your own measurements with Modern Tailor and lazily order more shirts in the same measurements over and over again – in any fabric and style you like Easy Breezey.

5. Now, I do not have to waste serious hours shopping for business shirts. Modern Tailor allows me to order a business shirt, in my own measurements, wherever I am in the world! No more going to Google Places searching for local stores for shops I used to go to. I just have to login to www.moderntailor.com and enjoy a new shopping experience. No commitments, no embarrassing “I’m sorry it doesn’t fit, just trying” moments… no waiting in queues to fit 1 item in the dressing room!

The Tragedy is Not in Poverty…

2012-03-26T18:36:00.000-07:00

A friend recommended the book “House of Mirth” by Edith Warton… this book tackles social issues around the 1920s it seems. There is also a film version found on youtube. In summary, the story is about a woman who is conflicted between her desire for luxurious living and to acquire true love based on mutual respect and admiration.

The social pressure to don beautiful, branded clothing, use latest gadgets, drive sports cars, live in fancy homes exists to this day. There are people who are against materialism and those who seek too much of it.

Money has been more important than ever as information is distributed online. However, money is not the culprit … and I am not against life’s comforts.

The tragedy for women is not in potential of poverty if they can not marry well. The tragedy is if they do not realize that skill development and education are most important to their entire being. Their intellectual growth will save them from the temptations and manipulations that await them in a society that values material goods.

The question is not – Is it possible to have true love and money at the same time? The question should be – What can a woman do in her life to make sure she earns herself respect that would make potential partners value not just her appearance but also her mind? For the improvement of her mind is her only true treasure… and despite how long it takes a person to succeed, if the mind is constantly improving, true success will come.

Custom Tailored Shirts for Women

2011-10-01T15:04:00.000-07:00

I am very excited to try Modern Tailor. Modern Tailor is actually one of my friend's businesses. I have ordered men's shirts for my brother and for my partner and I am convinced with the impeccable quality.

Living in New Zealand, I think the cost of custom tailoring services are way over the roof.
Having been to Australia & USA, it's much worse.

At first I was thinking perhaps I can't wait for 3 weeks for my shirts to arrive. But I really need formal, stylish business shirts for a presentation so I have just ordered a purple and blue striped shirt from Modern Tailor.

Their website is www.moderntailor.com

I will post photos when my shirt arrives.

Dalai Lama Thoughts on Life and Men

2011-09-29T14:57:00.000-07:00

Can you relate?

It is difficult not to worry about the future. We are in the times of uncertainty and that is an understatement. Many people predict gloom, double dip recession, more job losses. More and more are committing suicides, getting depressed, drinking, taking drugs.

May I just suggest that depression and lack of hope are challenges in life we can not escape. We can only make the most of our talent to deal with these situations.

A Life in a Day

2011-09-28T15:30:00.001-07:00

Women have monthly cycles which affect their moods all the time.
So yes, it is quite easier to be a man.
I want to share this email I got from a friend.

------

Michael is the kind of guy you love to hate. He is always in a good mood and always has something positive to say.
When someone would ask him how he was doing, would reply, "If I were any better, I would be twins!"
He was a natural motivator.
If an employee was having a bad day, Michael was there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation.
Seeing this style really made me curious, so one day I went up to Michael and asked him, "I don't get it! You can't be a positive person all of the time. How do you do it?"
Michael replied, "Each morning I wake up and say to myself, you have two choices today.
You can choose to be in a good mood or .. you can choose to be in a bad mood. I choose to be in a good mood.
Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or...I can choose to learn from it. I choose to learn from it.
Every time someone comes to me complaining, I can choose to accept their complaining or... I can point out the positive side of life, choose the positive side of life.
"Yeah, right, it's not that easy," I protested. "Yes, it is," Michael said. "Life is all about choices. When you cut away all the junk, every situation is a choice.
You choose how you react to situations. You choose how people affect your mood. You choose to be in a good mood or bad mood.
The bottom line: It's your choice how you live your life."
I reflected on what Michael said. Soon thereafter, I left the Tower Industry to start my own business. We lost touch, but I often thought about him when I made a choice about life instead of reacting to it.
Several years later, I heard that Michael was involved in a
serious accident, falling some 60 feet from a communications towe! r.
After 18 hours of surgery and weeks of! intensive care, Michael was released from the hospital with rods placed in his back.
I saw Michael about six months after the accident. When I asked him how he was, he replied. "If I were any better, I'd be twins. Wanna see my scars?"
I declined to see his wounds, but I did ask him what had gone through his mind as the accident took place.
"The first thing that went through my mind was the well-being of my soon to be born daughter," Michael replied. "Then, as I lay on the ground, I remembered that I had two choices: I could choose to live or... I could choose to die. I chose to live."
"Weren't you scared? Did you lose consciousness?" I asked.
Michael continued, "...the paramedics were great. They kept telling me I was going to be fine. But when they wheeled me into the ER and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared. In their eyes, I read "he's a dead man. I knew I needed to take action."
"What did you do?" I asked.
"Well, there was a big burly nurse shouting questions at me," said Michael. "She asked if I was allergic to anything.
"Yes, I replied." The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my
> reply. I took a deep breath and yelled, "Gravity."
Over their laughter, I told them, "I am choosing to live. Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead."
Michael lived, thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude. I learned from him that every day we have the choice to live fully.
Attitude, after all, is everything.
"Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." After all today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday.
Enjoy each day, each breath and mostly---each and every friend

Good Fine Food Isn't Expensive

2011-09-26T19:07:00.000-07:00

These sumptuous, healthy meals are all home made from an amateur cook's kitchen. My blog is found on this link: http://restaurantreviewspo.blogspot.com

Healthy food takes 30 minutes extra to prepare. However, I do not worry about eating processed foods which I think is the main cause of bad skin and depression.

So I use food to nourish me - literally. Nourish my mind and my body.

Note that it's not cheap to eat healthy... I must be spending extra $100 to $150 a week just on food but I think of it as health investment and insurance payment...

Interesting Celebrity

2011-07-19T19:05:00.000-07:00

I'm not a celebrity follower, but I always appreciate those who seem to thrive amidst the dirty world of showbiz.

One woman whom I admire is Katie Holmes. I don't watch her movies, nor do I follow her on magazines. I see her occasionally on people.com when I look for clothing designs to fit a woman.

I like style because she is glamorous yet real. She doesn't overdo her make up or her get up. She seems very conscious of her health and seems to live a balance life. If all's true then good for her. I wish her well.

My Facebook Advise

2011-07-15T17:54:00.000-07:00

Facebook is a great way to get in touch with old friends. However after being on Facebook for a couple of years now, I decided to spend only 10 minutes a week on it.
The reason? I am traveling and would like to see what's up with home. That's most important to me.

I think having connected with old high school friends once or twice in the last few years was great. I have to be honest though. We don't have anything in common these days anymore and our values have definitely changed.

So as much as it's a warm feeling to connect with people, it is very unproductive.

The Botanical Dress (above): A beautiful ladylike dress, with inspiration coming from Jackie O and the sixties. The medal is handmade by Diane Massey-Molloy, who makes our great corsages. It is detachable for someone who just isn’t adventurous enough. The dress is all about the waist, with the ribbon coming all the way from France to help our customer!

The Thyme Skirt (above): This skirt is a very understated little number with a nod to the theme – Life Botanic – with the birds flying through the ruffles. It is the utility trend again. It is high-waisted to create a good balance between the ruffles and the fabric. Will go back with all the tops!
