I love LV

leave a comment »

fall/winter 2010 collection. conservatives may think flaunting the boobs is vulgar but I think showing off the curves of the women is a right that all women should enjoy.

I like the look of the models who look healthy and not overtly thin and anorexic-looking with a bouncy ponytail and carrying an updated version of the iconic LV bags with pumps with bows. This collection brought me back to the 1950s when Christian Dior’s new look was in its heyday. Love love love this collection. If the world revolves around my thoughts, all women should be wearing these this season.

Angelababy Yeung

with one comment

One of the top models  and ”it” girl in Hong Kong who is also popular in Japan, having walked the Tokyo Girls Collections.

I first came across this girl on the cover of Nuyou magazine in Singapore and didn’t think much of her until I saw her name – Angelababy. First glance a bit childish name but I thought I saw her before. then I googled her and voila,  even as a girl, I was struck by her beauty and her cuteness. She is also versatile in her fashion shoots, to be sexy & sultry in one and sweet and alluring in another.

In the end I bought Nuyou magazine because she is on it and read more about her. Only 21 years old this year, this girl’s path to fame and fortune looks very promising.

Random blog post of red and yellow. My favourite colours. Forgot which label the red shoes belong to. Girl in the picture above is from one of Betsy Johnson’s runway show.

Audi Fashion Festival Singapore 2010

Fashion shows are simply orgasmic to me. Models strutting down the runway like angelic beings with spotlight on them, genius designers who brought cloth to life, turning them into heavenly garments with intricate details, unique tailoring and a visionary point of view.

To be able to attend 2 of the shows at AFF was such an eye opening for me and re-ignite me with the passion and resource to continue writing about fashion here. Here are some blurry shots from my iPhone:

Just before alldressedup show

Bryanboy and Dr Georgia Lee right in front of me!

@ Roberto Cavalli’s show

Roberto Cavalli sitting in front of me! 2nd gentleman from the left in 1st row. Georgia Lee is 2nd from the right on 1st row, sitting in front of me AGAIN!

Look at that backdrop for the 1st part of the runway show

Can’t see the models well from the pictures but they are like little angels light up on the runway.

The clothes fresh from the runway show! I took pictures of it, since I can’t afford it.
