What I like about this singer is her individual style, going more for a retro pop look. From head to toe. But let's not forget she has a unique style when it comes to singing aswell.

Studs for all! (Part I)

Haven't posted in a while but now my laptop is back on track! So today's subject is ... STUDS



Studs have always been in fashion. The people who would wear them were usually the punk, rock, edgy kind of person. At that time studs were not really wearable by many of us.



But this year 2012, they are , making a huge comeback in the season. You definitely find them on pants, shorts, t-shirts,

I'm finally able to share with you the first pictures from Milan. I'm here for the men's Fashion Week once again and it's really great! It's so hard for me to post everyday, as I run from show to show non stop but I'm glad to be back :)

I had the chance to attend several of shows the first day, such as Frankie Morello, Burberry Prorsum, Neil Barett. It was really amazing, besides the high temperatures that literally exhausted me! 

Tomorrow I'm flying to Paris so stay tuned for more Milan and Paris adventures ;)

LIP SERVICE

ph: Le 21me Arrondissement | BellaSugar | Glamour | Wall Street Journal | PaperBlog | MAC | Clothes Over Carbs

First the neon eyes + now the statement lips! I'm slowly building up the confidence to try this out. I only use chapstick + haven't really worn lipstick since high school, so this would be a big jump. I keep buying bright shades, but haven't tried them out in public yet. The trick is wearing it with just a bit of mascara + nothing else. Here are some I've been testing...

+ NARS Lipstick in 'Heat Wave'
+ Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Pur Couture in 'Le Fuchsia'
+ NARS Pure Matte Lipstick in 'Carthage'
+ Bobbi Brown Lip Color in 'Neon Pink'
+ NARS Lipstick in 'Schiap'

Resort Report

Needless to say I can't stop checking the new Resort Collections of all my favorite designers at the moment. I'm impressed by the different ideas and concepts when it comes to colors, moods, structures, prints and textures. The essentials for a "holy and bright" 2013 are out...

Phillip Lim's marvelous "flowers and stripes" are inspirational and the collection aspires simplicity and chic-ness!

Derek Lam says "yes" to pastel and intense colors and even supports the green khaki equals the new black.

Balenciaga made me fall in love again with the corsets in leather and the impressive fluid textures in pastel shades.

The Row respects minimalism, reminding me of the clean designs of Calvin Klein. This time the Olsens proposed cold shades and restrain cuts yet not as youthful as I was expecting.

Proenza Schouler feeds my apetite for a casual chic mood and includes neon shades in the collection once again.

Céline mixes leather with animal prints on coats while proposing giant polka dots on many pieces of the collection.

Stella McCartney insists on intense colors and prints, both in floral and leopard patterns. Enjoy! xx
