Colour Blocks

Colour Block dresses have been popping out of the runways for the spring/summer season. Meaning, this will be a big trend over the summer! I was browsing around Vogue.co.uk and saw this gorgeous colour block top and skirt/shorts by Dries Van Noten! Colourful or what?! I am in love!

The colours of this dress totally compliment each other and the silky material fits well with the upcoming weather. Not to mention the checkered detail on the dress! Totally gorgeous! And look at the statement necklace too! Everything is fabulous!

So that everybody is WINNING...

Other alternatives for the "less able to buy designer clothes" can pop by your favourite high street stores like Topshop who sells these pretty and playful colour block poplin jersey dress for £40! Well now, that is being totally in fashion for a much lesser price!

For The Love of Jimmy Choo!

I am in love with these Jimmy Choo; Corsica Leather Sandals! It's tribal, sexy and very edgy, totally in for the Spring/Summer season! The contrast between the green and the black really stands out; making it a pair of eye-catching statement shoes! I've been drooling over it! I could wear this with anything! Dresses, pair of jeans, leggings, shorts, skirts... EVERYTHING!!! This gorgeous pair of high heels cost a wallet ripping 456GBP (about 660USD). Obviously, it is not for the commoners! One day Jimmy... One day.

On the other hand, here is another pair of shoes that I truly like and totally affordable!

The leather woven platform sandals from ASOS.com. This lovely pair of heels cost 49GBP (about 70USD) which is a more affordable option for us, the commoners. Affordable and FASHIONABLE! The natural colour is good to match with any other colours and outfits you can think of. This gorgeous sandals also come in black but I like the natural colour more, it suits well with the upcoming season! 

Kiss Me Goodnight

- I was a little inspired so I created this and even managed to write a short poem!-

Will I ever see you again?

Will I ever smile again?

Embrace me.

Just this once.

Look into my eyes.

If you really love me...

Kiss me goodnight.

Cold Melt Freeze...

Isn't it a little sad to see the snow melt...? (-_~")

And the cold breeze is just way too freezing!

First Collection (2008)

Hello! Welcome to my Blog.

This is my first collection from Fashion Design course last year. The dresses are designed just from draping on a mannequin and are inspired by the ancient Greek-Roman clothing. These are all hand-made from dying the fabrics to sewing. The fabrics used for the dresses are light weight calico (image 1), middle weight calico (image 2) and cotton jersey (image 3).  I hope you like it.
