Hi, I'm Back And I'm Going To Fashion Week! + FRTS + Blogshop Updates

Hello, I'm back again! Hope you missed me. Haha. I guess I didn't have much inspiration or more like I was just lazy to blog for the past couple of weeks. 

*Long post ahead.

Anyway, fashion week is here!!! The Audi Fashion Festival & Blueprint event is starting from today (well, techinically yesterday since its already the 28th) up till the end of the week. It's gonna be a whole week of fashion glitz & glamour! Got tickets for the opening show of AFF by Dsquared² which takes place today, am really looking forward to watching it! I read that Carmen Kass will be opening the Dsquared² show, plus the designers Dean & Dan Caten are coming. Unlike fashion week in Paris, Milan, London & New York where designers of the label usually appear at the end of each show, here in Singapore, we only get to see a selceted few designers who are able to make the appearance (as in international names). Which makes the show more exciting than usual. I read that Henry Holland is also coming. And maybe Mr. Cavalli? Tickets to alot of shows are already sold out (when I last checked), but if you'll like to experience the thrill of watching a real fashion show (you won't regret it, trust me), hurry up and purchase tickets to shows that still have available seats! 

So, did you guys watched the Star Awards* on Sunday? I missed the red carpet segment so didn't really get to see who wore what. I did see some pictures from the event and saw S/S2010 looks from Miu Miu, Burberry & Gucci.

The Miu Miu Spring 2010 collection is one of the most coveted & discussed collection among fashion bloggers this season. Yvonne Lim wears a cat print sequinned top from the collection.

Random fan-girl moment: Godfrey Gao came! And so did Mark Chao. Mel is a new fan of GG! Hilarious. But he is tall, handsome AND hot.

Mel, this is for you=P

Lastly, here's a preview of the new mini collection that'll be up in the shop soon (sometime this week). Thanks M&M (haha, I love initials) who helped me out with the shoot. Love you guys! 

The Adventures Of Fifi Preview @ Street Stylista

Wow, just realised this post is such a random mix of things. Anyway, hopefully I'll be able to get some pics from fashion week to share on the blog. In the meantime, have a Happy Wednesday!=)

*For everyone who don't live in Singapore, the Star Awards is an annual award ceremony something like the Emmys.

New York Fashion Week Spring 2010 (Part 2)

Alexander Wang Spring 2010 1

Alexander Wang Spring 2010 3

As always, many are gonna want/lust after pieces from Alexander Wang's latest collection. I must say, besides creating very wearable pieces (which I guess is/should be the top priority in this economy), his attention to detail is impeccable. Check out the back view detail shots of his garments on style.com. The laced/zipper heels! Loves!

On a side and random note, you know, I've always been amused at non-chinese speaking AND 'fashion people' pronouncing the 'Wang' surname. But I guess you get used to it, even Vera & Alexander themselves pronounce it 'that way'.

New York Fashion Week Spring 2010 (Part 1)

Jason Wu Spring 2010

Erin Wasson x RVCA Spring 2010

I won't be doing collages for all shows (too many shows happening every day), probably only for those I like or have interesting pieces. Reviews & pictures are aplenty, get your fingers working and search. Love the dresses from Jason Wu btw. Mimi, inspirations maybe?

Whitney Eve


Reality star Whitney Port from The Hills/The City rose from working behind the scenes of fashion shows to producing and showing her own line at fashion week. Whitney showcased for the first time, her label Whitney Eve during the ongoing New York Spring 2010 Fashion Week. In the preview video of the new season of The City, there was a part where she mentioned to Kelly Cutrone (her boss at PR) something about wanting to start her own line. Not so sure if MTV will actually show footage of the actual fashion show though. Will have to wait and see when the new season returns on September 29.

Vena Cava Spring 2010: Safety Pin Dress

Vena Cava Spring 2010

Using safety pins to create wearable garments isn't exactly a new thing but I think this safety pin dress is really nice. A basic black dress styled with the safety pins gives the totally wearable dress a subtle edge. Speaking of safety pins, I am reminded of some of my friend's excellent pieces from his graduation collection. I shall go steal some pictures from him (with permission of course) and post it here soon.
