{PFW} Dries Van Noten Spring 2012

If you're looking for a new inspiration for your Spring 2012 work wear then Dries Van Noten collection is for you. This Belgian designer is inspired by photographs of cityscape and blue water paradise that supplied the spectators with nothing short of imaginatively magnificent.

Using photographs of Marselle-base British photographer James Reeve for silk screen prints, he manages to incorporate it into his modernly chic collection with a mixture of different silhouettes and volumes. Here are some of my favorites.

Fall Trend Round Up
Thursday, September 29, 2011
Fall Trend Round Up


I've been loving a lot of fall trends lately and if you'd notice it has been predominant on my site. In a way it allows me to take a break from all the bright and fancy colours and just embrace a more dark and neutral feel of the season, if that makes any sense.

Leopards is definitely my favorite but the shops here are so unforgiving. I've been on a hunt for that perfect leopard clutch and it kills me because I still couldn't find a decent one. But I'm positive that I'll find one soon.

How about you? Do you already have a favorite trend for fall? Let me know. But for those of you who still doesn't have an idea which pieces to get then this post is for you. Here is my fall trending round up.

Whenever I See You


Whenever I see you:

  • I would glance away a little
  • I would think "Wow, I can't believe I see you again"

{Work Wear} Boy Meets Girl

Fall work wear anyone? Let's go back to basics.
Pair your button down shirt with a pleated skirt along with a neutral heels and bag to give that boy meets girl look. If you want to make it more glamorous, just add a chunky necklace below your collar. Now, don't you just love this look?

Happy Monday luvies!

{LFW} Mary Katrantzou S/S 2012

{LFW} Mary Katrantzou S/S 2012

Mary Katrantzou is a designer that I've recently discovered upon browsing through runway shows of London Fashion Week. Call me a newbie when it comes to London base designers but I'm amazed by her artful pieces.

Inspired by sculptor John Chamberlain, who is noted for working with crush steel and other found object, she manages to blend nature and industry with such a feminine flair. Accentuating the looks with bright coloured lips and messy up dos is definitely a knock off.

Now if Spring/Summer 2012 doesn't scream patterns and colour like this, I don't know what would.

{Style File} Laura of Barbie-Laura

{Style File} Laura of Barbie-Laura

Laura of Barbie-Laura has an amazing style; chic, clean and polished. In more ways than one, we actually have the same style and it's nice that I could refer to her every once in awhile.

I applaud her for knowing how to work well with her body type. Let's be honest most women don't know how to do that, and we can learn a thing or two from Laura. Being stylish doesn't mean you have to be skinny but embracing your curves and accentuating your best assets.





Have you always had a fondness for fashion? What compelled you to begin blogging?
Yes, I love fashion since I was young. I opened my blog for express myself and my style. And I love blogging...

How would you describe your style?
If I can describe my style in a word, it would be classic with a touch of fashion. I like mix basic pieces, like a woman suit, with a very fashion item, like a feather vest or fluo shoes.

What is your go-to item for an instant boost of confidence?
The little black dress, every woman should have one in her closet.
When I really don't know what to wear, the little black dress save my days.

Do you have any tips for staying chic while traveling?
Dress casual, but don't forget your heels at home, and be sure to have a very fashion suitcase.

What stores do you frequent?
H&M, Zara and Asos, are my favorite for low cost fashion. For shoes, bags and accessories Net-a-porter is the best.


What are you makeup bag essentials?
I can't live without my Lancome Hypnose mascara. And the three step by Clinique.

{New York Fashion Week} Rachel Zoe S/S 2012

Who doesn't love Rachel Zoe? Aside from her iconic words "I'd Die"and "That's bananas" which I adore by the way, she has an impeccable taste of style. It's no surprise that most celebrities she dresses for red carpets always end up in the best dress list. My favorite? The stunning Oscar Dela Renta dress that Cameron Diaz wore during the 2010 Academy Awards.

Now that she finally has her own collection, I must stay it speaks a lot of her personality and the type of clothes she'd actually wear. From maxi dresses, neutral colours and mixed patterns to clean cuts with shimmers; I'd totally wear every single piece. I'd die!
