Spring/summer 2011 Fashion Forecasts!

The first look consists of a sequined midriff top which can be won as is or with a secondary top underneath.In this picture the stylist (yours truly) teamed it up with a nude top tacked under the pants.
Broques are still cute and here they are won with red lace pants to give the a sort of "page boy" look.
Accessories won include the red vintage hat and chunky necklace as well as a floppy bag and watch.


Boy meets girl.This look is almost androgynous and punk at the same time.There are various other ways of embracing the punk look..you can wear studs,safety pins and chains on anything as well as pick up on the neon trends..as seen on the Balmain runways.


The sheer trend.
The skirt here is partially sheer.This look is simple yet classy at the same time.Pair this dress with edgy boots and a crucifix for the ultimate edge.My model is also wearing round vintage-y sunglasses which are really hot right now.

Ripped Clothing
Get a break from the ordinary LBD and try something with more edge and pizazz! The dress is accessorized with a belt,black open toe lace up booties and a pooch (fashion's newest accessory)
note the bag!
note the floppy hat!
colour splashes!
alternative to wearing the sheer trend
alternative to sheer skirts..sheer chiffon cardigan

Give the skinny pants a break!
Get yourself some flared pants in any fabric.I chose Cotton because nothing quite compares to the comfort of fine yarn on a hot and  humid climate.The model is wearing a see through lace top and has accessorised with a chunky jewelry(necklace + bangles).




Feel free to loose the tights,blazers and socks.Wear what makes you comfortable and beautiful..you are what you wear after all aren't you?

Random Avant garde

Now presenting some amazing pics from VICTOR AND ROLF ss11


I just loved this entire collection.I think the cuffs and huge exaggerated collars were quite something! and plus they have picked up from where their previous collection left..I sourced this images from the NYMAG website.


Then lo and behold I discovered skin.graft....

They have dressed Lady GaGa among others in the past but put that behind and you are still in awe of their amazing work...They design garments whose colour palette is on the darker end of the spectrum but they NEVER fail to impress..I love their work so much!!!

hair-or stories...

I think I now realise how hair salon hair dressers can conspire to kill someone and so I name this script THE CURIOUS CASE OF KILLER SALONISTS.

CAST
Yours truly (staring)
Hair dresser 1(co star)
Hair assistant
Accountant

PLOT
The scene starts off in the 2nd floor of a highrise building where the hair parlor is located .The lead actress(yours truly) is having her nappy hair relaxed....so the hair dresser first applies the chemicals on my hair then sits around waiting for it to properly develop .Her assistant who has been sitting in the corner earphones in place filing her nails and chewing gum like some retard finally walks out for "lunch" (its 11 am ..who has lunch at 11 a.m? on a freakn saturday?)
anywho..my hair gets processed (i know it sounds like some document on a computer or something) and my head feels as though it's on fire so I call for her attention and the convo..

Her: Is it that bad?
Me: Yeah.Feels like am burning!
Her: (laughs) am sure it doesn't hurt a bit
Me:It really feels like my head's on fire (freak! I would not complain if I felt just fine)
Her:(laughs again and walks out to go and chat with the accountant next door!)

Seriously???!!

I-spy .......

I have for the longest time wanted to write a post in the language of blah-nglish.and what exactly is blah-nglish you ask?
blah blah blah blah blah blah blahblah blah blah blah blah blah blahblah blah blah blah blah blah blahblah blah blah blah blah blah blahblah blah blah blah blah blah blahblah blah blah blah blah blah blahblah blah blah blah blah blah blahe
thats blah-nglish its very easy to read write and write and you dont need to use your head so much.The beauty of it is that once you start learning it you can skip directly from beginner level to connoisseur in an instant just like instant coffee..Not!

so aside from that..I have found couple of stunning eye pieces in the last couple of days that i think will take your breathe and words away...



tell me you don't like this and ii'll blah blah blah blah blah blah blah in your face...


i think this pieces are just as genius....then there is this Chanel piece....with lace!it's about time someone READ self started hunting down for this pieces...*sigh*
