September Issue

I know its been a while since the September Issue has been out BUT I have finally got time too write the review about it.

When I first heard that they were documenting a movie of the 2008 Vogue September issue I was extremely excited and very eager to watch this film as soon as it hit the big screens. The documentary gave the audience a great insight of what goes on behind closed doors of the best-selling fashion magazine. I still ask myself how can one woman have so much power in the fashion industry?
Starring Anna Wintour, a strong powerful woman where fashion designers crave for her opinion on their latest collection. Not only does everyone listen too what she has too say but she says “what’s in” and “what’s out”. You would think no-one would have the guts too stand up too her but also starring in the documentary is Vogue’s Creative Director Grace Coddington not only being a former model but also one of the worlds greatest fashion stylists, does stand up for what she believes in. Although Anna still decides with the end decision what stays in and out of the magazine. Overall I personally really enjoyed this documentary with a few giggles here and there especially with Andre Leon Talley! I cannot wait to get my hands onto a DVD copy.

stay tuned as i have some exciting posts coming up!!!

I am back !

OK, so i know im extremely behind with my blogging but i have been incredibly busy finishing up my studies this year. This doesn't particularly mean I haven't been keeping up with Spring/Summer 2010 collections that was shown a few months ago. I have gathered some of my favorite pieces and collections together. There are so many collections that I ADORE but these are JUST A FEW that i thought that i might share with you!

David Elfin -

A fresh new look I especially loved the menswear in this collection, perfect colour palette!

Marc Jacobs -

Words cannot describe how amazing this is, Marc REALLY picked up from his last collection. I am loving the pale faces, tight buns and big ruffles and it's also very wearable pieces!

Alexander McQueen -

WOW WOW WOW now who wouldn't want one of these dresses!!! The prints, the make-up, the hair, the shoes (INSANE), dam McQueen you always impress me!

Now that I am almost free... I hope too get back into my blogging routine! xxxx

Object That Dreams

Yesterday afternoon after a nice lunch down at the cafe and playing a good old game of Scrabble, I decided to give my library a visit. I came across this amazing book called "Object That Dreams" by Zoren Gold and Minori. It had so many beautiful pictures inside it... I absolutely LOVED IT! These are a few of my favorites below that I had taken with my iPhone, I ended up taking about 100+ shots. Finally the weekend has arrived!

it blows my mind away...

I was browsing through google images of 'Isabella Blow' as I find her to be such an inspiration and it came across my mind is Gaga a modern version of her in style wise of course....
I did do a tribute post of her when I first started blogging but couldnt help showing you more of these amazing photos of her!

xoxo

if only $$$ came easy...

RESORT 2010

[MY TOP TWO review]

Prada-

I found this collection flowed really well especially with the clean cut edges and the different colours used throughout the collection, the shoes is a very cute touch to the look. I also think the bags looks great in all the different colours, i personally like the blue and yellow one.

Yves Saint Laurent

I really loved this because i found it too be very elegant and sophisticated at the same time, the cut out on the shoulders of the orange dress is just divine!!!

bow hair-do look alike

As i was searching through google images i stumbled across this picture of Paris Hilton with a hair-do that looked very familiar.... Lady Gaga?? yes Lady Gaga and her famous bow hair-do, i love and appreciate her style but i think the fame is getting to her head.

The point is who looks better ?

Miss Hilton does give it that very classic look whereas Gaga gives it that extra edge unlike Miss Hilton. I personally prefer it on Lady Gaga...

Last week i purchased this vintage jacket on ebay, i always wanted a sequin jacket but always found it a bit hard to find in thrift stores from where i live.... i was stoked when i saw the abstract pattern and love the silver and black together, my package should arrive this week!

Holidays are soon

yay :)

Jeggings

So theres been the discussion about jeggings (jean like leggings) weather they are a good look or not. Personally I think its the way how you style it.

For example Whitney Port looking casual with jeggings but definately can not pull it off as they are too short and doesnt particulary look good with the converse all stars. But i guess this outfit is quickly thrown together for a day out to play ball.

Unlike Whitney Port this girls jeggings has been really nicely put together!

Black boots, nice layers purfecto!

Feautured on Facehunter

Work tomorrow all day....ughhh

enjoy your weekend

rain rain don't go away

Today i woke up to the sound of the pouring rain, lately the weather has been really gloomy and rainy which is FANTASTIC! You may think i am weird but this is very unusual for my city as it is usually always humid, sticky and hot!!! so its so nice to have a change and now i finally have an excuse to layer up the clothes yay

What happens after?

Chanel Resort After-party

in Venice held at Hotel Excelsior Lido

Mr Karl Lagerfeld looking smashing in a metallic navy blue suit jacket

Anna Mouglalis in Chanel of course, I don't know if you noticed but she is wearing a jacket with the dress in the first picture with Lagerfeld but once the jacket is off the dress looks simply beautiful such a timeless dress i want one!!!

Caroline Sieber in a Chanel suit as we all know, but what i want to know is she able to pull it off with that bit of skin showing?? i personally dont think she can, not a big fan on this look on her unfortunately! i like the bag though :)

Carine Roitfeld is JUST THE CUTEST!

she seems so friendly and approachable i want to meet her!!

ok, this picture is halirious check out Lara Stone...

Black fingernails with a glass of Champagne in one hand and on the other hand a cigarette!

P.Wolf

Patrick Wolf a London born musician and who is truly talented can play several instruments such as the piano, organ, viola, guitar, violin + more! That is seriously some musical talent going on there…I was browsing through some pictures of him and I find his style quite intriguing and I totally admire his colour change in his hair, but I must say I quite like the red/orange as it stands out the most and generally hair that colour is quite hard to co-ordinate with clothing but P.Wolf here can totally pull it off!

It also only came to my realization but Patrick Wolf modelled in the Burberry's fall 2007 fashion campaign…looking fabulous I must say!

"My sexuality is kind of liberal. I fall in love with men and women. I guess you would call me bisexual. I like to have sex and fall in love—I don't like giving terminology for my sexuality." - Patrick Wolf

I would love to meet someone like him, I think he would be a really interesting person to have a conversation with especially after reading that quote that I thought I would share with you. On the other hand I have an assignment to start …. help me!!!

"Hold On To Your Hat"

So today I finally get my hands on the Lula magazine issue 8 featuring Chanel Iman on the front cover. As i stepped into the newsagent i couldnt see the magazine i wanted there, the man said they only had 2 copies in and i was pretty annoyed cause i remember seeing it there not too long ago but was waiting to recieve my pay before i purchased it. Having my fingers crossed as i walked down to another newsagent to my surprise they still had another 2 copies left yay!!!

Chanel Iman-

The pale pink lips seem to really work with her skin tone quite nicely

In this issue they had a really beautiful shoot of Boater Hats

Title: Hold On To Your Hat

Something about these photographs that I really love....

i think the fog/mist gives it a really dreamy and magical feel

pretty sure i want a boater hat :)

yes i know this is a random photo but i totally forgot to include it in my other post "Mothers Day"

only one question could be asked:

What would Mr Lagerfeld think of this? tragic!

xoxox

Mothers Day

My weekend started off with working for 8 hours running around on my feet serving customers that were doing last minute Mothers Day shopping... I was definately looking forward to my day off on Sunday at the Gold Coast at my brothers apartment!

I promised my Dad that I would be at the station for him to pick me up at 9am on Sunday for Mothers Day but due to a late night I slept right through my alarm clock till 9am!!! Immediately got ready and shot off to the station...
