Tokidoki for LeSportac may be THE graphic-inspired bag of the moment, but I kinda like the more down-to-earth illustrative ones by Harujuku Lovers.

Subtle colours and cute in a non-annoying way!

how should I wear it?

Hi fashionistas,

I am in a fashion dilemma. I have a top almost like this one shown here. But you have got to imagine it in pastel pink and sleeveless.

You see - since it's cropped, I don't know how to wear it or layer it? And I don't to go baring my midriff.

Please help, it's been sitting in my closet for a few months.

XOXO,
plain-jane

I wanted to get my hairstyle done this way. But sadly, my frizzy hair just won't stay put.
Maybe I'll do rebonding.

This is actress Zhou Xun. Famed for her recent movie with Takeshi Kaneshiro and Jacky Cheung in Perhaps Love.
And Miu Miu 2006 Advertising Campaign.

Love the blue sash

I love this top! Especially the bow... check out how Summer wore it in The O.C.

Goth

Halloween may be far away, but every now and then we'd feel a little bit of Goth surfaces from within. ( That is, if your main style is not Gothic already ). Plus, skulls are just getting a lot of attention lately, halloween or not.


Though am not liking her practice in taxidermy, Julia DeVille ( wonder if that's her real name! ) designs really fine Gothic themed accessories. Dark and brooding, she's inspired by the death, mourning and mortality. Challenging subjects that draws interests.

The Mourning Ring :-
A perfect stand-out when donned in monotonous black.

Necklaces I like...

...bracelets to go with them.

...and these gloves are so cool!

Euphoric over CK

CK's Euphoria scent is inspired by blooming flowers. True to its aspiration, the scent is fresh like a blossoming flower.

Plus, there's a Limited Edition - Euphoria Luminous Lustre Spray Euphoria. Glistening throught its bottle are sparkling pink liquid, one mist leaves your skin shimmering.
Totally indipensable when you are out to paint the town red.


"Euphoria Luminous Lustre Spray Euphoria is about sexiness, fantasy, and being captivating. Sexy and sensual, Euphoria speaks to the woman who has the urge to break free from everyday life - to provocatively be part of an exciting world filled with pleasure, surprise, and temptation. Her fragrance is a contrast between exotic fruits and seductive florals, for a rich, creamy, seductive signature. This limited edition spray leaves a delicate shimmer on the skin.

Notes:Pomegranate, Persimmon, Green Notes, Black Orchid, Lotus Blossom, Champacca Flower, Liquid Amber, Mahogany Wood, Black Violet, Cream Accord.

This seductive oriental scent begins with fruit notes of pomegranate, persimmon, and berries followed by lush floral mid notes of lotus, orchid, green grasses, violet, and champacca. The scent closes on sensual notes of amber and mahogany."

Chloé SS07 Paris

I am totally besotted with Chloé Spring Summer 2007. A mélange of romanticsm in retro.

Basic color palettes such blue, brown, off-white, yellow as opposed to bold prints.
Minimal and practical cut versus fully embellished frocks.
Mini shift dresses or full length pants/dresses.

Chloé’s S/S07 may seem dull to critics, but I am simply attracted to these monotone colors as well as my weakness for minimalism.

High fashion? Or simply Stepford Wives’ clothing? – You decide.

Apple iPhone

Being the mac/apple supporter I am, wouldn't mind having another phone this sleek! Now let's see who can top this!

Imagine being in a well-cut business suit, power stillettos, confident make-up and hair pulled back in a clean sleek ponytail... now imagine whipping out this stylish piece. How cool is that!


"iPhone combines three products — a revolutionary mobile phone, a widescreen iPod with touch controls, and a breakthrough Internet communications device with desktop-class email, web browsing, maps, and searching — into one small and lightweight handheld device. iPhone also introduces an entirely new user interface based on a large multi-touch display and pioneering new software, letting you control everything with just your fingers. So it ushers in an era of software power and sophistication never before seen in a mobile device, completely redefining what you can do on a mobile phone."
