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.

Joanne Peh looking chic in a sexy cut-out dress from 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.

Michelle Chia in a sequinned top & twisted draped skirt combo from Burberry Prorsum.

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! 

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.

Go Wild!

Model: Masha Novoselova / Photographer: Txema Yeste / Stylist: Alberto Murtra

Been seeing lots of fab editorials lately (see previous posts here & here), this is yet another amazing editorial from the latest issue of V Spain. Those McQueen Armadillo shoes has been making its rounds on plenty of editorials but this is probably one of the best ed featuring the most talked about shoe from the Spring 2010 collections. Also, the model totally worked it in this shoot I must say. Love it!

Weekend's just around the corner, hope you guys have a great weekend ahead!=)

I Really Like This Outfit

(Stockholm Street Style)

The weather has been really fickle lately. It's either really hot or it rains like crazy. Nothing to do with the outfit posted here btw, just being random. I love everything about her whole outfit. The slouchy knit cardi (LOVE!*) + the basic tee + the long skirt (which I somehow find myself going back to being obsess with lately) + the oversized round shades + the red lipstick. *I guess it's a good thing we don't have the winter season here or else I can so totally imagine buying all the fabulous coats, capes and winter jackets I keep seeing in stores the past few weeks. I DID however, end up purchasing a cape (just one) awhile back coz it was on sale and I justified the purchase by telling myself I'll have something to wear when I go to cold countries OR I can simply wear it here when it's cold OR just wear it nonetheless. Haha.

So anyway, I know I disappeared for awhile again. Sorry about that if you do read the blog regulary. Thanks for sticking around. I really appreciate my readers and comments so keep em coming! Was somehow occupied with things to do/complete. I must stop making empty promises to update regularly. Maybe I'll try doing scheduled posts so at least there will be some posts at least every week? Ok, no promises. I'll try=)

Btw, I believe the girl in the pic blogs at Chicmuse. Just discovered her blog a few days back. You can check her blog out here. Have a great week ahead everyone!=)

From Runway To Street 009

Eley Kishimoto Printed Dress from Fall 2009 RTW Collection

The 3-tier rounded lapel is such a quirky change from the usual shawl and tailored collars common in jackets and coats. Also, did you notice the similar print as the dress on the leggings? It can totally be a standout piece paired with a monochrome outfit.

Couldn't stop staring at this image of Anja when I saw the editorial in V Magazine. The make-up is pretty much amazing.

After The Flea

Ok I'll admit, I haven't exactly been consistent with updates of events. So, this was from the flea market I did with bff like er, almost a month back? Yup I know, like how fast am I right? Haha. Anyway, it turned out pretty good, over the two days we were there, we sold off quite some stuff & had quite alot of fun. Definitely one of the better flea markets I did, I was happy about that and it was bff's first flea so she was happy too.

This was our table display on the first day. We only had one table so we basically displayed as much accessories, shoes & bags on the table as we could. We also had a clothing rack which I bought like literally 2 hours before the event. Mad rush.

This was our space on the second day. It turned out to be way bigger than the first day coz we were given two tables instead of one, which also turned out to be a good thing coz bff's friend came to join us to sell some of her own stuff and we ended up having a whole range of merchandise to sell. Our location was fab as well, located just at the main entrance where the traffic was pretty good.

And that's us at the closing end of the day! I know it looks like we still have alot of things left, but that's coz we kept replacing empty spaces with new stuff once something was sold off (we did have ALOT of things).

So guess what? I might be doing the flea again this weekend. Will update in following posts if I get a space. In the meantime, I've updated the shop (I know, like FINALLY). There's more clothes (new & pre-loved) and also a range of unisex leather belts. Do check it out! Click here to shop!
