NEW YORK FASHION WEEK X

As promised, here are the reviews on New York Fashion Week:

The Designers:

MARC JACOBS
- Marc Jacobs shocked the fashionistas in the crowd by starting his show 2 minutes early- (This was a shock as Marc Jacobs is known for keeping the guests and celebrities waiting for several hours).

- Marc only allowed 500 certain members of the fashion press and buyers to view his show. (Usually 1,500 people would have viewed it.)

- As he wouldn't let any celebrities sit on the front row, the photographers were limited to taking photos of his new collection.

- In the ten minutes, he sent 60 models down the catwalk, each styled and dressed differently.

The collection:

- Metallic brocade puffball-minis; Day-Glo capes with American footballer shoulders; flannel jodhpurs worn with satin bustiers; little coats in pastel chenille with oversized ‘pixie’ hoods; black bondage-trousers, kilted at the back, with grey cashmere cardigans, piped in silver. Bol ponchos, were worn with nun-like caps, in a show of hectic elegance.

He went for the neon party dress look, (NEON SPRING?!) flaunting his new flourescent pink and lime dress selection.

The accesories were just as crazy, with Turkish-inspired, turun-up-at-the-toe boots.

The whole collection was called, "Bringing Downtown to Uptown" and was possibly the most original yet.



The Models:

CHANEL IMAN

Was seen wearing some awesome outfits on and off the catwalk.

She walked for Gucci, twice in their elegant new Spring collection.

She was also seen out and about, using the Geek Chic look, wearing a pair of oversized glasses, black leather boots black rugby shorts, and a blazer (Which all looked like Ralph Lauren.)

This girl just keeps getting better!

The Holly That Went Lightly.

Todays session is going to be about the most influential brunette on the Upper East Side since Blair Waldof. Yes, I am talking about Miss Audrey Hepburn. The film she is most well-known for is Breakfast at Tiffanys, set in New York, in which she plays a blooming socialite, Holly Gollightly. But apart from this, Hepburn has been in several films which are now considered classics. Audrey Hepburn is a huge style icon, and in my opinion, brought the Little Black Dress back into fashion. What do you think?

Happy Birthday To Me!

Auberry and Collette

My Birthday Cookie/Cake! :) x

Hey guys,

Whooo, it's my birthday- (thankyou for all of the lovely e-mails people!) and I was very happy this morning to recieve a Nintendo wii- (On which I have been playing on most of the day!) and I was even happier when I recieved an e-mail from DailyCandy Rep, Danielle, wishing me a happy birthday. Anyway, I want you guys to meet my two models on which I create all of my designs based upon. Auberry and Collette. Luckily, the awesome illustrator from Daily Candy, Sujean, is

letting me use some of her drawings as Auberry and Collette, and those are the pictures above.

Auberry and Collette:

Auberry and Collette are the two characters which I first drew when designing clothes, and they are both the opposites of each other, e.g Collette is blonde, Auberry is Dark Brown, and they both have different styles- Collette likes the bright, neon hoodies, skinny jeans and all the wedgey heels, Auberry like the fitted clothes, and is more likely to be seen at a black- tie event, so Auberry and Collette can suit everyone!

Also a HUGE thanks to all the people at Daily Candy, who helped me with the illustrations on my blog, and heels, Auberry like the fitted clothes, and Sujean, who is the awesome illustrator behind it all!

Also, thanks to Danielle from DailyCandy, for my lovely birthday message! :)

Converses this Spring!

Confession: I'm the kind of girl who loves the comfortable shoe to a pair of uncomfortable stillettos. But I don't want to wear plain sneakers around- I mean, come on! What I need is a pair of shoes that are comfortable, fashionable, and are girly enough for me. So I choose Converses. They're comfy, fashionable and look great with anything! I like to pair some pink converses with a layered skirt and vest.

How will you pair your Converses?

Wildcard Session- CHANEL IMAN!

Right, so once in a while I'm going to have a Wild Card session, which means I can talk about anyone or anything- as long as it's to do with fashion.

Todays Session is going to be about 19 year old model, Chanel Iman.

She broke into the World of fashion when she was just 13 years old, and debuted in Teen Vogue in February 2008. She graced Italian Vogue with other models to celebrate Black History Month, and she has been named Americas Next Big Supermodel of 2008.

Apart from being drop-dead gorgeous, Chanel is a huge fashion Icon for me. She puts together the most amazing outfits and seems to change her style every other day.

P.S If you want me to do coverage on any particular models- leave a comment!

FASHION COLLAGE! X

So, I was just clearing out all my all magazines, about to throw them away, when I sat down and began to look over them again. I suddenly realised something. Not only would it be a HUGE waste of paper to throw all of these magazines away, but there were some pretty cool pictures in the magazines. So I had an idea- a FASHION COLLAGE!

Not only could I have fashion in magazines, but I could look at it in my bedroom- all the time. You don't just have to have CLOTHES in your collage, though. You can have your favourite celebrities and models- or just pictures you think are cool! So instead of throwing away your magazines, make a fashion collage!

LG Cookie- Touch Of Pink!

Hey my bloggers,

So I just got my new brand new phone- The LG COOKIE- IN PINK!

Not only has this phone got a 3 inch wide screen (wow!) But it is fashionable, affordable, and touchscreen!

Best of all, it includes a stylus and drawing pad so I can do my Auberry Colette designs from my phone, how cool is that?!
