5 Korean Movies You Need to Watch STAT on Netflix

It's no secret that I love Netflix streaming, and I thought it'd be fun to do something non-fashion/beauty/fitness related for once sooooo here are my top 5 fave Korean films on NF.  I don't know if you guys are into subtitled films, but if you are, check these out fosho. Oh, and they're all BAMF action/thrillers.  

1.  The Man From Nowhere - Freakin' a.  What a crazy movie!  Won Bin is a total bad-ass in this film. Unless you're a korean drama/film junkie, you prolly have no idea who he is so you'll have to trust me when I say he's legit. Basically WB, a mysterious widower, jumps to the aid of his young neighbor when she's kidnapped by a gang. Sounds generic but it's seriously' exciting.  Also, WB is sexy as hell so there's that.

2.  I Saw the Devil - Aiite, heads up!  This movie is crazy graphic/violent so if you don't have a strong stomach, pass on this rec.  Lee Byung Hyun, my fave korean actor, plays the lead in this movie.  He's a secret agent who seeks mad revenge on the serial killer who brutally killed his fiancée. FYI, this isn't some sick movie that's violent just for the sake of being violent (ie. Hostel) - there's legit acting in this.  

3.  The Secret Reunion - An exciting movie fosho.  Basically, a South Korean agent (knowingly) hires a North Korean spy for freelance detective work after messin' up the arrest of a high-ranking assassin for redemption. See how it plays out!

4.  New World - I freakin' love gangster movies.  Probably the best korean version I've seen thus far. The lowdown: an undercover cop is ordered to influence the election of Korea's largest crime org.  How far will he go to protect himself?  Oooo, the suspense is totally killing you isn't it *grins*

5.  Commitment - Another film on North Korean espionage.  With his sister held captive, see what happens to a highly-trained 19-year-old North Korean when he's betrayed by his own government. This movie's like the korean version of Jason Bourne. Oh, and the main character is SMOKIN' hot.  

Have you guys seen any of these?  Do you like subtitled movies?  Oh, and do you have any recs for me? I'm always lookin' for fun new movies to stream!

The Lace Evening Gown

Alright guys, I'm super excited to tell y'all about my new evening dress courtesy of Miusol.  You'll be breakin' necks left and right in this stunning number.  The red lace is beyond sexy, and the silhouette is mad flattering.  The knee-high slit's just icing on the cake!

I kept things pretty simple on the accessory front cause my Lily Rain clutch sparkles like whoa, and I don't like wearing TOO much bling - hashtag clean and classy FTW, ha.  Anywho, this gorg evening clutch is a fave for sure. It's on the pricy side, but it's totally worth it IMO.  The quality's on point, and it looks way more expensive than it actually is.

Here's a full body shot for you guys!  Also, remember what I said about sizing.  Pay close attention to measurements - asian smalls are significantly smaller than US smalls.  I wear size XS in the US and M in Asia. Just givin' you guys a heads up!  I made the mistake of ordering an asian XS, and it was COMICAL.  I got a pair of jeggings, and I couldn't even get my leg in half way, HA!  Yeah, I don't want that to happen to you guys.

Oh, and I've provided post links under each photo if you'd like additional deets *smiles*

All Sorts of Fancy

 1.  Charlotte Russe Sparkle Bodycon Dress ($30) - This dress is absolutely gorgeous.  The fabric's to die for - the metallic thread sparkles like whoa, and the diamond-shaped pattern is ridiculously fab! The piece is tight, but it has stretch to it so it's mad comfy.  FYI:  it has three-quarter sleeves and a deep scoop neck in back!  I'd show you, but I suck at taking back shots for some reason.  You can clicky to see though!

Sensible Stylista x H&M

2.  H&M Lace Dress ($24.95) - This adorable mini-dress is a total must-have, especially if you're on the shorter side.  I say that because the item is a bit short, but then again, all you'd really have to do is throw on a pair of black tights to go from potentially scandalous to chic, ha!  Anywho, this fab piece is available in red as well.  The lace's super girly yet sexy.  

The Lace Bodycon Dress

 3.  Deb Lace Bodycon Dress ($27) - SO much winning going on with this sophisticated number. This dress is a seriously classy and versatile - you'll be wearing it for years to come.  Fab for work AND play!  Hurry and scoop this up while you can because I'm pretty sure it's gonna sell out soon.

Best Thing I Never Had

4.  Deb Popover Dress ($24.30) - A fun and flirty dress that's perfect for the holiday season!  The flowy top complements the tight skirt beautifully - remember, it's all about balance.  Plus, who could pass up glitter & chevon? *grins*  

The Embroidered Chiffon Dress

5.  Roxx Chiffon Dress ($51.99) - Ok, so this piece is not under $50 BUT (!!!) I have a discount code for you guys so it'll be like $10 cheaper, ha!  That's how I'm justifing my post title *smiles*  Use code 20SENSIBLE at checkout to get an extra 20% off.  ANYWHO, this beautiful dress is a freakin' home run.  Break necks left and right wearing this classy piece!  Lace cuffs + high neck?  I think YES!

The Heart Wants What It Wants

Love, love, LOVE my new striped blazer courtesy of +Tobi,  This fab piece looks awesome dressed up AND down - versatility FTW. Pair it with jeans like I did for a casual vibe or wear it with dress pants to trend it up at work!  Who says work friendly attire has to be boring?

Although I paired the blazer with a sweet blouse, I think it'd look glorious with a polka dot top - hashtag mixing prints FTW.  Yeah, that's right! I just wrote out "hashtag", ha.  Don't judge me. Anywho, don't be afraid to experiment with different prints on top.  If you decide to take my tip, throw on solid bottoms to match!

A closer look at my blouse (also from +Tobi).  What can I say? I'm a sucker for colorblocking.  The neon yellow in the back = awesomesauce.

OH, and I almost forgot to tell y'all about my new bag from +Handbag Heaven.  ERMERGERD, it's shaped like a heart.  I know, I'm a freakin' weirdo.  Whatevs. I can't help it!  I get excited over heart-shaped objects, haha! Anywho, for $34 this bag is a serious must-have.  Both the color and quality are legit.

Top 5 Fall/Winter Coats

Sooo, I thought it'd be mad useful to do a post on my current fave Fall/Winter coats.  Since I'm sensible and whatnot, each item is under $76.  I wish I could say "under $75" because that'd sound WAY better but whatevs. Anywho, as you can (obviously) see, I own each piece so I feel strongly about the quality.  Oh, and FYI: I will NOT be making commission off this post so I have NO ulterior motive whatsoever *smiles*  I just want to make sure y'all look fab while staying warm!  As always, you can comment below with any questions you may have.

The Drape Coat

 1.  Chicwish Waterfall Drape Coat ($67.92) - So much winning going on with this coat.  I LOVE the faux-leather trim and zipper cuffs.  This piece is seriously chic, and I know you'll be THANKING me for this rec for years to come.  Who knew an item could be trendy AND timeless?  A bit of an oxymoron but whatevs.  I own this baby in size small.  

Enamour

2.  OASAP Plaid Coat ($53) - A lovely wool coat for winter especially if you're a fan of plaid!  It has a bit of an oversized feel so if you're into the whole menswear trend, this baby will seriously tickle your fancy.  FYI - this piece is available in two other colors: red and green.  Check measurements before purchasing because it's only sold in "one size"; as in "one size" fits all but it probably doesn't in reality, ha.  

All Sorts of Fancy

3.  Miss Match Persuade Me Jacket ($72) - An absolutely stunning jacket for Fall or Winter in Cali, haha.  It has super soft faux fur lining, zipper pockets, and an asymmetrical front.  I told you I was obsessed with the whole draping effect *smiles*  Anywho, lucky for you guys, Miss Match has offered SS readers an extra 20% off with code KIM20 at checkout.

The Houndstooth Coat

4.  OASAP Houndstooth Coat ($67) - If you're a fan of prints, this baby's a serious must-have.  I'm BEYOND impressed with the quality of this coat.  Sizing runs small so make sure you study their measurements - I have it in medium (I usually wear XS/S), and it fits like a glove!

The Bow Dress

 5.  Chicwish Drape Jacket in Ash ($76.42) - This jacket's the most expensive item I've featured in this post.  I know it's pretty pricy, but the quality's legit.  I could seriously see this hanging in a designer boutique with a $500 price tag.  Here are the deets:  it's faux suede with a draped shearling collar/lining and asymmetric hem.  I own it in size small!

That's all folks!  I hope y'all found this post useful!  Oh, and make sure you guys check out my THREE international giveaways HERE.  You could win a $75 gift card to Zuri Zuri by Flora, a $295 Microderm360 kit, or a $118 statement necklace from Chloe + Isabel (!!!)
