THE PAGEANT IS OVER... :) SOME PICS







Arent these girls so lovely? well. Finally the pageant has come to an end. I am so glad tt despite all the unhappiness preparing this pageant, these 32 girls has forged strong bonding between them. From this pageant, I have learnt how to understand each individual better by forcing myself to listen to them. I have grown to be more understanding and developed to become a very patient person. Thank God for such wonderful experience... for the girls who didnt make it to see the finals, fret not. We have found someone in hope can give us the full video clip. If so, will upload them asap.
Meanwhile, I would like to inform you girls tt I am slowly phasing out this blog. It is because we have a proper website www.kayleneonline.com. I hope you girls can add the website into your favourite list. New stocks has arrived ever since we move to the bigger unit.... have you been to our new unit #04-16 Far East Plaza? :)
Love

Metamorphosis....Introducing KAYLENE

Hey girls!
Its finally time for us to announce to you that we are ready! We are ready to launch our website! Since the March ordeal... We have been asking ourselves whats next for Lavender Closet. Before we could do anything, our current unit has been taken up. With no retail shop and bleak future, I decided to give it all up, pack and go. But we had a major problem, that is the pageant is still on-going. It was then when my sister and Mr Ling decided to help me get out of this drama. Before we know it, we are busy preparing for KAYLENE.

For the launch of KAYLENE, we have been busy like bumble bees! We did brand new packaging, took up a bigger unit (4.5x bigger than current space!) pump up our in house designs, the list goes on... phew! all the time and money into this launch was not a easy feat. And we are ready now....

We are pleased to inform you that from now on, we will be updating our latest news and products via our new website. www.kayleneonline.com!

Do note that we will be doing renovation for the new shop. The last day of operation for current unit #03-136B will be on the 30th May 2010. As to when we will be ready for the new shop, we will update you girls on the new shop opening date!

WE ARE FINALLY READY!

Do pop by when you are free because we have so much to offer for you!

See you soon!

Friday, April 16, 2010


HAHAHA.. we are on papers again! Its on tonights Lian He Wan Bao. I know tt this article is not entirely related to the pageant but then hey its good for the writer to do up a GOOD report instead of adding nonsence article isnt it? I am glad tt there is a highlight tt we can be happily married even though we are plus size. The best part is tt we HAVE VERY WONDERFUL partners! I am thankful for having Mr Ling in my life... I am sure you have one too... Go on now, give him a big fat kiss and tell him how much you love him!
p/s: have you realised tt this is the first time, Missy Closet has shown her face in the blog? :D After 2yrs! haha~

CONTESTANTS: These are some of the lovely dresses that we have been busy on... More coming on the 20th April. I only plan to do another 15designs before I close my orders because it is very costly as stock and its very time consuming to complete them. As you can see the price I quote is rather reasonable to own. If you are busy to come down, drop me an email is fine as well. The idea is to make sure you girls get PROPER and beautiful gowns. Remember to invest in a good pair of heels. Good heels gives you a great posture for the night. START practicing if there is a need to okay? Some of the girls are pretty lovely and hardworking, they are already practicing their walking (in heels) and has confirmed gowns with us.

For money issues, the usual transaction is half upon confirmation and the balance half AFTER alteration and design. I understand that some of you girls are on a budget. We are very aware of this issue and we decided to allow partial payment. Over the span of these months, you can pay up in batches. This way, you do not feel the pain! Please understand that this 'special treatment' is really for the girls who needs it. Just sms me or call me for more clarification.

So please come to us real soon before my order closes and when they final day comes you will have no pretty gowns!!! Email us at lavendercloset@gmail.com

Some contestants from batch 2!

CNNgo! Reports on Miss/Ms Amazing Singapore 2010

We are on CNNgo! and also http://www.divaasia.com/article/8524 I do wonder who did this article and who has access to this picture. But what ever the case is that we have received pretty positive feedbacks! Well, so far so good on this pageant. Of course we have some narrow minded men who says horrid stuff on us, but seriously why frown over tt minority? They do not have any idea tt we are super confident, highly educated and definitely living life to the fullest! Do you know tt the some of us girls actually..
  • jogs 5km (and is super healthy in her diet. She thinks of creative ways to cook and make it healthier)
  • plays drums
  • acts and models
  • is in a dragonboat team (yupyups you read it right!)
  • sings like a STAR! (malay darling sings mandarin song okay!)
  • owns listed companies ( NO JOKE on tt)

The list goes on and on... I face so many beautiful girls and I am so honoured to have them as my friend/customers. So to those 'minors' Please rethink on the comments on us! :D
Anyways, a girlfriend wants me to remind ALL pageant girls... to stay focused. For now, there will be bound to have a lot of critics circulating... As long as we are together and stand firm, we should be fine... :D hip hip hooray!

Yeah! We are on papers! Sunday Times!



Yeah girls! We were on papers last Sunday. I must say we were a little disappointed as there were 10 contestants who went for the shoot, only 3 were shown. It would be great if there was a group picture so tt all the girls can show off to their loved ones! I didnt end up in any shoot (because I am sponser?!), I was nicely done up with my hair and long shiny gown! Prolly next time I will upload a pic of my outfit!
About the pageant updates...
Well, more and more girls are interested in this pageant, and I am glad tt we are creating more and more hype on this pageant like the papers etc. The team was great, I have to say most of the credit goes to Erica. She was the one who got hold of the loose strings and pull them back together. We also had a super warm/stuffy but fun charity dinner at House of Seafood. It was super fun to see most girls turn up for this event. We had Nurshiela, Sharon and Alice winning the Best Fashionista Award that night! I was super proud tt the girls dressed up well and looked extremely lovely! Well done girls!
A note to the pageant girls....
As the date is drawing near, more events will be up. During each event, I always sit in a corner and observe these beautiful ladies. The room is always filled with laughter, the atmosphere is super good! Girls made friends amongst themselves, found shopping khakis and even share beauty tips! They are so confident of themselves and I must say even myself, I am impressed! I certainly hope this will be a 'wake up' call to all the plus size girls tt we can be pretty and also have fun at the same time! And stop hiding at home AND baggy clothes! Stop plugging on to earphones and listen music while walking and pretend tt the world dont exist! I will try to post more pictures for you girls to SEE for yourself how happy and fabulous the contestants are!

* NEW STOCKS will be coming soon! I finally found a good factory! I bet the competitors will have serious problem finding MY factory now! :D Seen the samples already, am loving them to bits!
Take care all of you, Missy Closet will be back in ACTION real soon....
We are going to give you ALL a pleasant surprise!

Karen's HAVEN OF THOUGHTS

Hey girls,
The pageant is drawing near! Erica has been great in getting things done and I must say I am trying to keep up with her! Tonight, a handful of us will be taking photos and be interviewed by STRAITS TIMES (on Sunday paper) Will reveal more after I am done with the shoot okay?

ON a serious note now...
Just wanna share this with you. Our contestant/customer/friend Karen Foo is conducting a talk on loving yourself, titled 'Mirror Mirror on the Wall' hmmm, let me copy and paste to let you understand this better...

MIRROR Mirror On The Wall ...................
"Who's the fairest of them all? Ok, we know that we aren't Snow White or Kate Moss. What is it that we see in the mirror staring back at us? Do you like all your bits or do you have a a body part that your particularly hate?Do we really know what other people think of our bodies .....or do we think we know?

In this workshop, we take a good honest look at your body in a safe & warm environment. Working in pairs in this all women's hands-on workshop, you will help each other discover for yourselves the beautiful gorgeous body that others see in you. What to expect at the workshop:- hands on activites to see the diference betweem what your perception of your body is like and what is really is like- active engagement and discussion on how to celebrate your best features and how to come to terms and view your not so favourite features from a more positive light.- tips and techniques you can practice easily help you accept your body and work towards happier, healther and beautiful you!!
Be prepared to strip down to your undies or swim suit.

This is a ladies only event.
When: Fri 9 April 2010Time: 7 - 10pm
Place: 11B Bukit Pasoh Singapore 089825
Investment: S$150 per participant
Early bird special: S$120 per participant (payment to be received by 3 April via bank transfer)For those not comfortable in a group environment to strip down to their swim suit in front of others, & prefer a one on one workshop, please contact us for a private appointment at
+65 9853 0595"

Personally I think this is uber cool. It is good to know that there are people to GUIDE us on loving ourselves. I know it sounds silly but havent you ever feel ugly at times?
So let Karen guide you on how to love yourself, see the 'REAL' you for the first time. Hope tt after this workshop, the next time you pop over to shop for a chat, it will be a new you, a uber confident chic talking back to me!

*Thanks Karen, for allowing me to spread this love to others!"

updates on Lavender Closet

Hey girls,
Its 12.30 am now... checking my emails and clearing some work before I sleep. Then I went to look into this blog and realised that I have kinda neglected it. Seriously, alot of hiccups occured almost everyday and I have a very hard time trying to 'hold the fort'. After 2 weeks of struggle, I am beginning to see some dim light. Well, at least something better than total darkness isnt it?
Please hang on with us while we need time to prepare for something! We are trying to pull all the ends together to see if it works. *keeping my fingers crossed*
Thank you girls for supporting me, hearing my woes and giving me sound advice. Truly appreciate. Please bear with us (lack of updates) for now. We will be back soon... hopefully for the better

Love
Missy Closet
*thanks, Erica for the encouragement. Appreciate.

Back in ACTION!

Hey loves,
I am finally seated in front of my laptop! Well, needed to update you girls on the pageant and more news and happenings in Lavender Closet.

About the night when the girls dolled up...
It was fun! For the first time, most girls turn up and they dressed up to their nines. They were gorgeous, pretty, exudes sexiness in their outfits. I must say, even Mr Ling was impressed with the effort these girls made. I was in my best as well! I wore this toga long gown with a HUGE rose and sequinns from waist all the way down and Mr Ling was in his best suits and his funny skinny tie... Unfortunately, i was unable to snap photos for you girls to see. I think some of the darlings took pictures of them and do send it to me so i can let the other girls see how pretty you were tt night!
A debrief on the night... Well, I was happy to see tt some of the girls were noticing how the pageant girls walked and behaved themselves. I am sure they have learnt quite a bit from the event. As for me? I am v impressed with the participants for tt nights event. From they way I see, they actually BOUGHT their own gowns and they come by thousands of dollars. They also flew from various countries to compete in this. They were totally confident, not afraid of the crowd and whistles and cheers. I really hope when our night comes, it will be equally OR more fabulous than tt! As the full itinerary is will be out soon, I am getting my hands busy on new Lavender Luxe designs HOWEVER....

All hopes were crashed by a stupid mistake my factory made
Alot of loyal customers called to me recently to check if we really produced our products. Because they have seen many designs on other websites/shops. I am not going to name who and where because I felt tt it is unethical to 'expose' them. Not entirely their fault. It was my factory who betrayed me and sold ALL my designs to the public. It was very unfortunate because we paid for the 1st sample piece at a premium price and tons of tweeking and changing before the final product came. ALL these came with a price. and we bore the cost. All because we want all of you to enjoy enclusive designs by Lavender Closet. I must stress tt these designs were specially designed to make us shapier and pretty. I was very devastated to know tt others has been selling and even cheaper. To top it up, some even mentioned tt whatever Lavender Closet has, 'we will have it too, and MORE' Very depressing... Then I started to think about the older batch of plus size online/shop owners. I must say the older batch are more ethical and professional. We work the HARD way to build our customer base and not use underhand means. As much as i am very hurt by this hoo-ha, but we must carry on our lives right?
Anyway to summarise it, we have spoken to factory and has compensated us (seriously, not enough to compensate the total loss). We have stopped our partnership with her and thankfully, we found another one quickly. But we need time to start producing new items. I am very frustrated with the outcome of this because everytime when things seems to be getting better, it slams right smack in our face and we r struggling hard to stand firm. It will be over before you know it, therefore, hang on with me for a while, while we get the new designs up quickly for you to enjoy okay?
(i really do not wish to tell these to all of you initially, if not some of the them will say I am using reverse phsychology to lure you girls to come. But we really felt tt you girls need to know the truth)

No pictures will be up anytime soon because
we felt tt for this collection we really need to protect our designs as much as we could. Lesser designs I must say, but focus is still on dresses I must say :D The shorts are still on sale. only left with the larger sizes like 42-48" can pop by to enjoy the discounts!

*Would like to thank...
Prissy for the expensive calls to hear me complain...
Liyan and Ann a couple more for informing about the news
Erica for the puffs. Good to know tt you are doing good now. Can't wait to see your new place!
Gen n Zhen for the late night to hear me complain...
and many more whom I missed out. I will remember you in my heart.

Important News...

Announcement 1: An intimate affair
Finally the plus size bras are here! Not my stocks actually. A while ago, I was talking to Prissy about the bra problem the girls have and the next thing I know, she told me tt she has contacts for bras for the bigger girls! From my knowledge, these wonderful bras are from the same supplier as the Wonderbra, Victoria Secrets. They are sent to USA for sale. Thanks to her good number of contacts, she is bringing in some to help us! Do note that this is a trial try for the bras. If good response, we are looking at more designs and colors! For now, she is only bringing in 40 pieces of the following sizes: 38E, 40D, 40DD, 42B, 42C, 42D and 42DD. Do note tt currently they are only in 2 colors. A nice pastel blue and a classic black. I own 1 each and I must say, they are very comfortable! not joking!, I dun see the bulge at my back and yeaps, been enjoying it! Do let us know your interest in the bra so tt we can make arrangement for fitting okay?
*for a limited time only before she leaves... each @$45.90 nett.
FINALLY, we can wear good bras! With good bras and good dresses, we will be able to look super good!
Announcement 2: Miss and Mrs Amazing 2010
YEAPS! I just had a meeting with Beverly a few days ago and we firmed up a few issues! So excited! Ok this is very important for the contestants. Should you girls read this, please spread around to the fellow contestants so that they are aware!

1: We are going to be on television!! A filming company is interested in doing a 3 part/episode series on this pageant and I must say I am very glad! Because we are making it to the main stream! Not to be laughed at and not to be criticised. But to be on stage for the public to see us in our best! For the fellow girls to look upon us, for them to realise tt we may be big in size, but we are strong and beautiful. (tell you girls honestly, as much as my family is not supportive of me doing a plus size biz, because of this pageant they respect my job and finally begin to talk to me properly instead of the usual 'look how big you have grown' etc) For now, we have confirmed that a handful will be selected to interviewed and filmed throughout the show. These girls will be selected through interviews and screening by the casting director. More info will be released on a later date.

2.The full itininerary will be out by mid March 2010. Yeah... I know some girls, as much as they are super excited for the pageant, due to their work commitments, they need to plan properly their work schedule. Beverly just got back from Australia and is tying up loose ends for a pageant in march hence she is busy. But she assured me tt by mid March, she will be able to list down the plan and yeaps! we can arrange our schedule properly!

3. ALL the girls who has registered their application for this pageant are invited to Mrs Singapore pageant tt is held on the 6th March 2010! How cool is that? We are to witness how pageants runs and probably have a rough idea on how we should expect for our pageant! I think it is a wonderful chance to gain experience and know more people! Learn how they talk, carry themselves etc. Do make sure you girls come to shop to collect the tickets at Lavender Closet shop at Far East Plaza #03-136B. This event is strictly for the pageant contestants. Personally I like this arrangement as I think it will be great to mingle around with fellow contestants, chat up with one another and get to know each other better! Do note that you are to dress well, with proper make up and neat hair do. As we now faces of this pageant, it is advisable that we are in our best attire for this event.

4. The pageant will start the ball rolling in April! We are looking at catwalks/fashion show/competition in 2 malls and grooming course by Miss Genecia and also a self awareness talk by a fellow contestant. There will also be events like a group walk to a reservoir or park, and a charity event. Wow! How exciting is that going to be and are you ready to rock?!

5. The 2nd registration for Miss and Mrs Amazing Singapore is finally opened! The registration period is from 20th to 24th Feb 2010.*LATEST NEWS: Organiser has extended the date to 6th Mar'10 This time, we would request all sincere applicants to come down to shop at Far East Plaza #03-136B from 3.00pm-9.30pm for the registration form as well as to submit the registration fee of $30.00 CASH. For this 2nd batch of girls, we will not be able to entertain online registration. The briefing for the 2nd batch of girls will be advised on a later date.

Announcement 3: We will back in business on 19th Feb 2010 - Friday!
We will open our doors for you by 2pm. Should you like to come by and visit us, it is advisable you send us a text at 9056941 or 94777028 for an appointment!

Last but not least...
Announcement 4: We are having a CLEARANCE SALE!
Alot of you girls have been asking me on when is Lavender Closet having sale. As you girls know, we seldom do sales as we would like to control the prices properly and making sure that our items are exclusive. We have one now! From a limited time only. This sale is meant for all of you girls to purchase now, should you think that you were on a tight budget and couldn't afford, now you can! We are shopaholics as well, hence we will REALLY slash the prices! :D

Alright,Quite a handful for you girls to digest! Hope you have a wonderful year and yeah! Shout with me,

'This year is going to be a FABULOUS year!'

HELLO!!!
The girls first photoshoot! I am super tired but also super happy with the results. Prissy dear picked me up from Bedok to Boon Lay and drove me n the clothes to the studio. Then her magic fingers started working! From the pictures, I believe these girls enjoyed themselves! BTW, these r snap shots from Prissy mobile phone. I merely did a quick 'poster' of all these pretties to show you what you have missed! Please forgive me on the shabby photo editting, I am no expert and seriously, I have been working for 14 hours straight and am super groggy... What else should I add? These girls sure enjoyed their first photoshoot! Look at how we dress them up! Lovely, but seriously, kudos to Prissy, Must thank her... Without her, this girls will not look so fabulous! Find any of these items familiar? Yeaps, you can jazz them up like how our stylist did!
WELL DONE PRISSY!!!
More girls will be taking the shoot later this morning (its 2.15am now... ar.. I miss my bed) and I believe I can work on the pictures to show you! To the pageant girls... ARE U READY FOR THIS PAGEANT? from the way I see your smiles... Hell Yeah! I am so proud of ALL of you girls. Thank you ALL for making this perfect for me. Without those genuine smiles, all this sponsership will be wasted.... I love you all. *all teary... sniff sniff* haha

A few updates...

Hello!
I finally have time to sit down and post this to your girls. Sincere apologies on my lack of updates and replies. I am trying to clear all enquiry asap. Please bear with us as we need to be at shop front to serve you girls. Hope you can understand!

A bit on the pageant....
Well, last Saturday the outcome was smooth sailing, we had a few familiar faces popping by to join this pageant and also we have made alot more new friends! It was a bit of a disappointment to know tt some did not turn up. Some were nice and had a courtesy to inform me and I quickly told them about probability on the next registration date (which is expected to be somewhere in mid Feb) I know some of you girls has serious doubt in this pageant, emailed me and asked me alot of question on this pageant and my involvement in this pageant, if I am the organizer and if only Lavender Closet's customers can join/win this pageant... the list goes on! I know we are a small company and many still have doubts in us, I must assure you that we will not abuse our company image as well as integrity on 'scams'. We have an image to uphold and we are responsible to acts tt is made by us. I know there is still a lot of doubts in this pageant... After all, I am ONLY a sponser and not the event organizer, I do not know alot of things. MY key job for this sponser to make sure tt these girls get to wear the best clothes for this event. I promise I will do within my means to get the most information out of the organizer and update you asap on any news ya? :D You are all my beloved girls. I will do all I can to protect you girls and ultimately ENJOY this wonderful experience during this pageant!
Back to the pageant contestants, I will drop the contestants an email soon for the upcoming photoshoot (6&7th Feb 2010). Should any of you girls have questions on this, you can either email me or ask the organizer! :D

Okay now to email enquiries/appointment etc
Some of you girls has sent me emails on the clothes etc. as of till date, I have replied most emails. Should i have missed out on yours, please kindly send me a email again as I may have missed it out. As for the appointments made and yet still have to queue for the fitting room. I am so sorry about it as well, we will try our best to give you priority to try the clothes okay?

This is the time of the year where it is very possible that I miss out on you girls.
With many girls waiting to try the clothes, snatching over items and unable to come into shop due to the crowd, it is very possible tt I missed out on some girls and could have offended any of you. I am trying my best if I can to attend to everyone. Right now, I am trying to multi-task but once in a while, hiccups does happens. So I would like to sincerely apologise for the errors I have made and caused. Do allow me to have a second chance to serve you again and hopefully you will leave this shop with a smile!

New batches of yummy clothes...
I must say alot of new stocks has been sold out... But do not worry, we have enough PRETTIES for ALL of you! Almost everyday we will put up new items for you girls! I can sense tt it is going to be mayhem as the dates approached CNY, so do come when u r free okay! it is good if you can let us know when you will be coming so tt we can make arrangements. We want all of you to feel comfy in the shop you see..

Opening hours during this peak season...
Kindly note tt we will open at 1.30pm-10pm daily. Should you want to come earlier than 1.30 and later than 10pm, no worries! just drop me an sms @ 94777028 or 90565941 a day beforehand! we will open the shutters for you! We will open the shop until the 13th Feb 2010, 6pm. Should you girls want to come later than tt, special arrangments can be made!
During the festive season, we will close for a few days. Tentative date of opening is 19th Feb 2010.

Alright! alot to digest isnt it! :D yeah... and more to come as the CNY approaches! Thank you girls for the continuous support and SEE U SOON!

Apologies n A Quick Note to All

Missy Closet has just ended her meeting, and we have a little bad news for you.
There is a delay in the shipment of the new arrivals as it's the high peak season, our batch of Chinese New Year stocks may not reach on this week. However, the pretty clothes will definitely be up on shelf by 1 February 2010! Hurray! Still on time for you to celebrate your Chinese New Year in those lovely outfits. Meanwhile, please be patient with us. :)
And also, due to the festive season, we predict that our shop may be a little crowded than usual (also because we have a very small shop..*giggles*), do make appointment in advance by sending us a text to 90565941 and we will make arrangements for you, and also do try to come on weekdays when the crowd is lesser so that we will have more time to serve you better.
See you soon! :)

Pictures!!!

Some pictures to entice you! Introducing Yi Ping... Isnt she sweet? I was taking some photos using our mannequin and she was so happy when she saw me! she was like 'I will help you with modelling!' I must say, she is pretty photogenic eh? Oh, in case you would like to know her size, she is about size 2, Approx UK 16-18. She is really tall and hence you may think she is a petite :D
We also have our lovely Gillian to help out in some photos! Arent they the sweetest to have them to help me out?
Okay... I have a important announcement to make. Due to the peak season, and many enquiries on purchasing online, i have discussed with Mr Ling and we both decided tt we will try to cater to this group of busy ladies who are unable to come to our retail shop in Far East Plaza. We will try to test this market for this. Should it be successful we will of course tap into this 'area'. Yippies to many of you supportive girls but unable to pop down to shop! However, there are a few Terms and Regulations in which we need to abide by. Please read the following :

  • Postage will be $2 per item purchased. For registered mail will be additional of $3 ON TOP of the total postage fee. (Do note tt plus size clothes are way heavier than petite. Hence more expensive for the postage)
  • As our stock count is limited, should there be sold out items of the design you bought, you may be able to change for other designs of similiar price.
  • Price quoted here is FINAL. Members are entitled their discounts. Hence, do remember to quote the member card number.
