by the way,
forgot to tell you how Matthew Williamsom's dress for H&M
looks like Dior's Chérie ad campaign.
It's not that both are the same,
of course not!
But colour, length, décolleté...
Has been fuchsia the dresses spring colour
and I didn't realised?

...

But of course those are the most cool!

...

yeah!
it's all about denim as I said
It's all around!
I've picked up some of the ones
I consider the best for you.
For you to choose yours!

...

when walking along the seafront
choose a pair of wooden heels like those!

...

fancy a sunbathe?

perhaps this retro high-waist bikini
printed with tiny polka dots and funny bows
we can open the beach season.


...

Acne is updating versions of last seasons garments.
This one was called Bella.
Now in soft, light weight blue denim with a V-shaped back.
Wear it either with or without a belt.
I would wear it also with high heels & a black blazer.
more options?

...

Different look for the real Blair
Leighton Meetster shows more than her
Gossip Girl alter-ego Blair Waldorf ever does,
in an edgy oversized Jil Sander blazer and shorts combination.

...

so lovely outfit
make-up shades with spots of colour
You can find it at Alberta Ferretti's.


...

mixing blue and nude
or viceversa is what I feel more like this spring summer
For me thats the perfect combination
What's it for you?
any proposal?


...

I would rather wear such a billowing dress
with those YSL accessories.
Total black contrasting with Angelina's dress
is just perfect.
Would you have a better option?

...

This year's 62nd Cannes Film Festival
shows some of the best looks of the moment
It's like a second catwalk

look at this nude long dress that Angelina is wearing.
I would choose different accessories though,
especially the purse.

...

But it's not just blue the colour of the summer
Nude!
That's the other one I'm surrounded by too.
I like the sexy cover of VOGUE June
It generally deals with how we choose to clothe our bodies
therefore this time it looks like they do choose nude


...

natural, camel, black and ribbon
I like the big necklaces that Marni proposes.
Huge bow and petal-drop tangled necklaces
would match with any of the blues of the summer.

...

Blue,
from blue Klein to turquoise.
A blue dress as this one of Mochino
A blue jacket or a blue suit...

compulsory this summer!

...

Cool Fendi sandals!
Blue Klein with elastic straps...
Are you still thinking of your black ones?



...

Blue + worn jeans
perfect combination.
Top: Balmain
Jeans: Citizens of Humanity
Necklace (used as belt): VeraWang

...

a simple T dress as the really easy option.

Its perfect to go to the beach

but with a blazer and a pair of heels

you could go to a rustle up-party

...

I'm kind of obsessed with blue.
Klein and Royal Blue
are the colours for me this summer!

...

It's here again

Matthew Williamson for H&M

For Women & for Men!

...

The biker jacket is one of the musts of the season

This one belongs to Alexander Wangs SS09 collection.

The jacket body is denim-blue suede
with an off-centre zipper closure
and black leather sleeves.

Its colour and crinkled patina makes it look like denim,
and many blogs have reported it as such,
but it is in fact all-leather/suede.

Team it with a black ensemble

...

it's all about jeans this spring 2009
the more worn the best,
absolutely!

Balmain has something to say about it.
The bleached worn ones that we could see on the catwalk...
they have been the very beginning.

...

I had seen my beautiful YSL bag

(the one I showed you yesterday)
last time I went to HK
but I thought I could easily find it once back home.

I was looking for it all around.
Neither in Europe nor in the States.
Instead, I found this one in Paris but,
of course I waited to go back to Hong Kong
to pick up the other coz' I found it very special.

What do you think of this one?
It belogs to the men's collection as well.

I do love men's bags they are so...big!

Which one do you prefer?

...

I guess you know the Easy bag collection
by YSL now...the family is growing!

I've found this beautiful one in HONG KONG.
It's a SPECIAL EDITION and you can just buy it there.

ah! and this one is supposed to be for men. But I love it!
The leather is soft and the colour is more than special!

I'm gonna wear it with my white dress!

...

a bit more romantic
I've found this dress which I think is lovely.
don't you love it?

...

I'm looking for a white dress
Do you know where can I find a nice one?
thanks

The most special shorts
The silky pijama style - minishorts
I've chosen this Dolce&Gabbana ones.
Love the colour,
love the bow,
love the polka dots!

...

a picture in between winter and spring.
Well, I'd rather believe that it's saying good bye
to the first one!

Lovely, don't you think?

...

I cannot stop thinking of colour.
well, maybe too much here
-you can think-
but it's funny though
and it screams that summer is around the corner!

...

Did you remember Nick Knight's selected film
from the 24hrs live broadcast?

All that happened in 2007

That was the beginning
but the best is what is here for you to see...

...

...

Is it better to be beautiful than to be good?
My soul is as red as red is my heart
Do you require a mask to tell the truth?
What is a mask?

...

They begin affixing clothing to her body.
She barely flinches as they pull dresses
over her head and then off again,
as they sew skirts onto her,
wrap an drape her mid-section,
lift her feet for her and insert
her legs into pants.
They measure, take notes,
pin, cut, tuck and generally ignore her.

...

all those UV-rays made me think of colour application
and I’ve thought of a Roberto Capucci’s photo.

A timeless artist.
The eternal yet avant-garde.

Pleat, bend and transform,
contrasts of volumes,
3D folds and shadows,
wearable structures that envelope the body
with colour explosion.

...

Ohhh! I’ve seen how another magazine brights.
Vmagazine joins the glossy effect.
The editor-in-chief Stephen Gan says
V needed to lighten up and brighten this spring against dark times.

The electric/neon title theme follows throughout the issue,
where the two cover stars shot by Mario Testino are also featured.

Is it a new trend? will maybe clothes or accessories start sparkling?

...

another example.
This is a Glen Luchford photograph

I do think it brights by itself.


...

I keep on talking about collaborations.
It looks as not just brands are getting used
to this practice.
Magazines join the trend.

The latest edition of Visionaire,
in collaboration with Calvin Klein Collection,
utilises patented inks to create
simple black and white images
that transform into full colour
when exposed to sunlight or UV rays.

Visionaire 56 Solar as it's called,
aim to provide a multi-format album
of fashion and art.
A whole new dimension to the images.
