Love the maxi dresses/skirts Abbey Lee Kershaw was spotted wearing during the recent S/S 2011 fashion week. Going platinum blonde was such a refreshing change for her as well. My favourite among the bunch would have to be the first and second look. Sheer maxis still top my list at the moment.

From Runway To Street 015

FRTS - Peter Pilotto Dress @ Street Stylista
Peter Pilotto Dress from Spring 2009 RTW Collection.

Haven't done a FRTS post in awhile so here's one! Same dress but styled and worn two totally different ways. The thing I love about street style so much is seeing how each individual wear outfits according to their personal style. Some embrace colours, others prefer the monochromes. Some love accessorising, others not so much. In this case, I'll go for the street style look over the runway look. Love the skinny belt over the cardi look. The print on the dress is amazing btw, check it out here

H&M Singapore Coming Soon!


Very exciting! Did you guys hear yet? H&M is FINALLY coming to Singapore! The H&M store will be opening at Orchard Building (where California Fitness is currently located) @ Somerset come Fall 2011. In total anticipation of the store opening next year and I cross my fingers that they'll bring designer collaboration collections to the stores even if it's just selected designers (aka Topshop). Enjoy the Lanvin x H&M Haute Couture fashion show that took place in New York last week! Special appearance by Anna Dello Russo and her cute dog.

Watched Harry Potter over the weekend! Have you seen it yet? I've watched all the HP movies to date but didn't read the last two books, so basically the movie plot was all new to me. My friends said it was pretty close to the book so I guess that's a good thing. Now we'll have to wait a few more months for Part 2 which probably gives me alittle time to finally read the book.

I'm sure most of you have already seen the beautiful Emma Watson with her new spunky hairstyle. Kinda still getting used to her new look but I think she looks gorgeous as always. Love this girl!

Happy Monday everyone!=)

Love all the outfits and styling in this editorial. As you can see, I picked out my favourites in each outfit. I've always thought that clear/transparent bags and shoes borders along the fine line of being tacky and honestly, I didn't fancy the clear Cheap Monday boots when I saw some of the runway images awhile back. But I must say, I absolutely love how it's worn in the 5th outfit, my favourite look of the ed. The sheer maxi skirt which I've been wanting to DIY for the longest time remains in the form of a piece of fabric. Fab. Must get down to it soon!

On a seperate note, been having some laptop issues in the form of crazy jumpy lines appearing on the screen since the weekend. I'll need to get it fixed before I blog again since it gets a little taxing on the eyes looking at the jumpy lines. Thought I'll give a heads up beforehand. In the meantime, enjoy the rest of the week! Be back soon!=)

101010

Hello everyone! How was your weekend? So I was bridesmaid for my lovely friend Mimi's wedding two weekends ago which also happen to be the day where alot of other couples got married. Yup, it was 101010. Such an auspicious date don't you think? Not to mention it's so easy to remember that they'll not have any excuse to forget their anniversary every year. Haha. Anyway, the day started really early and lasted until late at night. Slightly exhausting but we had so much fun 'torturing' the groom's brothers and camwhoring all throughout the day. Here's what I wore for the dinner at night.

SOTD - 101010 @ Street Stylista
Forever21 Dress, Charles & Keith Shoes, Heart Leggings from Taiwan, m)phosis chain necklace, F21 Accessories

The dress was a lucky last minute find which I bought 2 days before the wedding. I knew I wanted to wear black but the only option I had before that was a maxi dress. Preferring to go short, I made a quick trip to town and found it literally by chance on the corner rack at F21. Black, short, chiffon roses and I'm sold. Also bought the sparkly hairband to go along with the dress. I need some bling! DIY-ed my hair doing multiple braids with the intention of some loose waves but decided it looked better in the messy braids so left it as it is. I liked it pretty much=)

SOTD - 101010 @ Street Stylista

Full shot of outfit here with my friends who were also bridesmaids (excuse the messy floor!). Pure coincidence that we were all in black. We had a mixture of blacks and florals among the bridesmaids that day.

SOTD - 101010 @ Street Stylista

Totally random shot but I was kinda amazed at how I couldn't figure out what colour the nailpolish is exactly. Quick story. I had a bottle of a pastel green/blue (I think) colour which turned out to be really thin/diluted (cheap nailpolish) so I ended up mixing it with black to see what it would become. This was what I got. It looked grey upon immediate application, then alittle later, grey-green and the next day I thought it looked blue-grey. Confusing but I like it.

Have a wonderful week ahead guys!=)

Suspenders & Mustard

So fashion week just flew by and I'm not even halfway through viewing the runway images from style.com. I did however watch the live stream of the Burberry Prorsum show which I love. Beautiful clothes, fab music. Pity about the model who fell at the end, it was either the shoes or her walk needs some serious improvement. While I slowly catch up with the shows, here are a couple street style randoms of looks I'm loving.   

Coco Sumner @ Street Stylista

Saw this on Vanessa Jackman, a fab street style site you should totally check out. I didn't know who she was but thought she had a really pretty name, Coco Sumner, and after some googling, found out she's actually the daughter of Sting. Her outfit is so easy and laidback, and I'm totally loving the colourful suspenders.


Another casual and easy to throw together outfit consisting of just basics. This shade of yellow which I call the mustard colour (or is there another name for this colour?) is probably my favourite shade of yellow (see here). Also, I'm finally able to do the bun on top of head look with my current length but have yet to wear it out. Will try it soon.

On a totally unrelated note, am really happy I managed to find something nice to wear to my friend's wedding this weekend. It was such a last minute find. Lucky me. Now, I just need to go style the outfit.

Have a great weekend everyone!=)

I Like Her Hair

I Like The Hair @ Street Stylista

I'm attending my friend's wedding this weekend and I need a trim desperately! I'm kinda liking her hair, but probably with a slightly shorter fringe (I like to see clearly..haha). Question, do you guys stick to a certain hairstylist for your haircuts or try out different salons everytime? My hair has undergone numerous transformations and 'experiments' under the hands of my trusted hairstylist who also happens to be my secondary school classmate who also has been cutting my hair for the longest time! Now, if only she wasn't living in Melbourne and back home now so I can get that trim.

Right. This is such a random post. Haha. One more thing, I'm fully aware that there has been a significant slowdown in posts for the past month which I apologise for. Trying to manage time alittle better so I can devote alittle more time to my beloved blog. In the meantime, bear with me and if you're still reading the blog, thanks and I love you guys!=)

Have a great week ahead everyone!

young&restless Autumn/Winter 2010 Ad Campaign & Lookbook
Ritual
Model: Egzona Lulaj / Photographer: May Lin Le Goff / Creative Direction: Ashburn Eng / Hair & Makeup: Larry Yeo

After several highly successful collaborations between up-and-coming local designer Max Tan and Ashburn Eng, who is also the founder and creative director of Test Shoot Gallery, they have come together once again to collaborate on a new line for the max.tan label. Named young&restless, the line designed mainly by Ashburn is 'made for the free-spirited, confident and unpretentious woman, who is sophisticated yet, bold enough to daydream. She is forever young and down-right restless.'

My favourite pieces in this collection would have to be the draped robe/long cardi (2nd pic), the pants-skirt combo piece (reminds me alittle of Gareth Pugh's S/S2010 pants with back chiffon skirt combo piece) and the star motif dress (last pic).

Click here to read an exclusive interview with Ashburn about how the label came about and the inspirations behind the collection. To find out more about young&restless, check out their website or join their facebook page to get the latest updates on the label.  Also, if you haven't heard of Test Shoot Gallery before, definitely check it out for the creative edtorial spreads and ad campaigns styled by Ashburn Eng and his team. His past ad campaigns for the max.tan label which you can see here & here is rather amazing.

Hello Blog!

OMG! Has it been two weeks? How have you been? I've missed you much! 

Yup, it's been quite awhile since the last post I know. To put it simply, I've been faced with too many 'make it work!' moments lately which left me with precious little time where I chose sleep over blogging. The Spring 2011 fashion week has already kickstarted in New York and I have yet to view any collections completely on style.com. Loads of catching up to do, plus a massive list of unread posts on bloglovin', which I finally finished going through yesterday.

Amazingly, with all the madness, somehow I managed to squeeze time out or more like I had to have a time-out to attend my friend's Mimi hen parties (2 parties on different days).

SOTD - Retro Mania @ Street Stylista
Top from Isetan, F21 Jeans, Shoes (my fav!) from CP, m)phosis Fringed Clutch, Accessories & Specs from F21 & Far East. 

This was my outfit for the first party which had a retro theme. Ok I know it's not exactly that retro, but I literally had to throw an outfit together like a few hours before the party so I had to work with whatever I could find. Ended up wearing as many bright colours as possible and I also brought my nerdy specs along and some hair accessory to retro-fy the look whenever needed.

SOTD - Retro Mania @ Street Stylista

I also realised the colours of my accessories somehow matched the colours of the top. Then again, the top has like basically all the colours possible. Haha.

So anyway, we went to Helipad (my first time there) which I actually think is quite a boring club. I much prefer the chill out place on the rooftop above. The night was filled with lots of camwhoring and lol tasks the brides-to-be had to complete which was pretty fun to watch. Our second party the following weekend was just the bride and a small group of close friends. That ended up being a marathon ktv session (6+hrs!) instead of the pre-planned hen party. Lady Gaga, BEP, Wonder Girls, Super Junior, A*Mei, you name it, we sang it. It was mad fun.

Burger Cake @ Street Stylista

We also had a mini early birthday celebration for Mimi with this burger cake which is one of the funniest birthday cake I've seen. Love it! I've already requested for a Chanel bag cake for my birthday next year! Haha.

Now that I'm done with the short update, it's time to get back to the madness and also catch up with the new Spring collections. Hopefully it won't be a long absense again. Once again, thanks for visiting the blog and I'll be back in a few! Happy mid-week everyone!=)

Aje. Autumn/Winter 2010 Lookbook
Model: Bambi Northwood-Blyth

Came across these images from Aje. Autumn/Winter 2010 lookbook awhile back. These are some of my favourite looks/pieces from the collection. Loving the sequin dresses, tops, pants, cutout skirts, well, basically all the sequinned pieces. Have been having some sort of unexplainable obsession with sequins lately which is weird coz I was never that into them before. Also, the maxi/asymmetrical dresses are something I can't seem to stop looking at as well.
