I'm actually disappointed...

Last week I think, Diana (SoFashon) was writing a post about what a hard beginning of the year she was having. Why? People not honoring their part of the deal, not understanding what made to measure really involves, work being hard etc. etc. Well, I'm ready to join her heartbroken by fashion club (if she will ever have one).

Uh...sorry guys...I'm just feeling a little blue these days... Img. From: Urban Candy 2nd photoshoot

Colors in the Snow

Chuck Anderson was approached by Burton, to create a design and pattern in order to be used for their 2009 outerwear. The design is based around the theme and name Light Camo.

Well, I love it! I'm cu-cu about it! Yes...me and my obsession with colors! Anyway, with this camouflage nobody will find me at the North Poll...when standing in front of Aurora Borealis! From: No Pattern

Paul Smith Fall-2009

I know it's a bit early (yes, I know I say it all the time), but the Parisian catwalks are full of cool guys, cute nerds and gods of rock.

Something like that can't pass me by!

Until now, this is my favorite collection. With a fresh country look, Paul had me at the first bow!

Plus, I'm crazy about the talented mr. Ripley look!

My All Time Favorite!

Her name: Brigitte Bardot.
Her fame goes around the world.

You know her, I know her, we all know her.

I could talk about her French origin (born in Paris, by the name Brigitte Anne-Marie Bardot). I could talk about her modeling career, or about her career in the European movie industry (great films like And God Created Woman where she played next to Jean-Louis Trintignant; Famous Love Affairs with the gorgeous Alain Delon).

We could talk for days...my advice, goole her, or go straight to Wikipedia!
Until the, here is the lovely Brigitte:

A Different World

Economy Crisis Fashion

Here is a versatile circle scarf, coming from American Apparel. So, you don't have only a scarf but also a dress, a hood, or a skirt, or so on...(please see the picture for more information).

I can't say it a gorgeous look, a extremely fashionable one! Because it's not! But it is practical and it something else. Not ugly but not beautiful...just different. Despite this, I like it, especially because of the fact that it reinvents it self, over and over again.

It would be fun to try it, right?

Happy Birthday Christian Dior!

So I'm more then excited of celebrating the famous designer's birthday!What do you know about him? Christian Dior was best known as the founder of one of the world's top fashion houses; even so, he's work in the fashion industry is enormous and (most of all) very important.
Actually , he was the most influential fashion designer of the late 1940s and 1950s.

CHRISTIAN DIOR (1905 to 1957) dominated fashion after World war II with the hourglass silhouette of his voluptuous New Look. He also defined a new business model in the post-war fashion industry by establishing Dior as a global brand across a wide range of products. At that time, he was so famous in France that he influenced youngsters to become designers. Youngsters like another Christian:
My mother says that when I was little my grandfather used to take me and my cousins on one side after dinner and ask us what we wanted to be when he grew up, and I’d say ‘Christian Dior’. He was so famous in France at the time. It seemed as if he wasn’t a man, but an institutionBecause I'm a person that relies on facts, I think this makes a thousand words (just like he's work!).
