New York Fashion Week Top Five Picks!

I know it's a little out dated, but i'm using this weekend to catch up! Having to cover fashion week at work, it's killing me not to talk about it here so without further a-do, here are my TOP 5 picks from NEW YORK FASHION WEEK Spring/Summer- Resort 12!




Marchesa



Isn't this just pure and utter amazement? This is sheer elegance. Marchesa never fails to wow us, ever. The detail, the flow, the colour... it's just mind-blowing beauty! There are no words to really describe this collection, it's just... Marchesa.





 Jenny Packham

Jenny Packham is a name we often hear on the red carpet, and i understand why! Her collections are absolutely stunning! And this season, Nude shades is really something that is coming through!


Oscar De La Renta
I don't know about you, but detail always catches my eye... and Oscar De La Rente, is amazing when it comes to detail! Plus, adding shimmering fabrics to the collection... LOVE LOVE LOVE!


Victoria Beckham
This spice girl KNOWS her fashion! I love how structured and edgey this collection is. It is so elegant! What is NOT to love about this!

DKNY

This is a collection i would definately wear myself, the only thing stopping me is the price tag. Isn't that an issue for everything. Urg. I walk passed the DKNY store in The Gardens nearly everday, and seeing this collection in the window, it's torture. ONE DAY! hehe


(i do not own any of the photos here!)

Next up, London Fashion Week favorties! I just cant get enough of the new collections! Who were you favorite picks? TELL ME! ;)

Currently listening to GOTYE - Somebody That I Used To Know.

Some quick bullets:
  • It's finally SATURDAY! It's the first week that i've worked from Monday to Friday!
  • Went to an pretty fashion event yesterday, and met loads of interesting people. (a post will come from this!)
  • I've gone back to my lazy days of dressing in shorts and flipflops... this must END! 
  • Played Pictionary with colleagues.
  • Going help cover the Avril Lavigne concert with Sam later, not sure how i feel about this. If i was still 15, i'd be crazy, but i am appreciating this opportunity!
  • Have loads of post-plans, STAY TUNED!
Hope everyone has a lovely weekend!

The Beauty Department: Your Daily Dose of Pretty. - A NEW TWIST

The Beauty Department: Your Daily Dose of Pretty. - A NEW TWIST


This so pretty, i love it! When i can finally figure out how to curl my hair with a curling iron, i'll do this. But, at this point, it might take another century to figure that damn iron out!

Happy Valentines Day!

Sam was lucky to get this pretty and anonymous bouquet!


Just a quick post to wish you all a happy (belated) valentines day!
Hope you all had your share of spreading the loooove!

Though, this year, i was apart from the boyfriend, it didn't matter because Valentines day isn't just a day for couples, it's a day for everyone! So i spent mine having a good lunch with my editor/boss, and family in the evening! Plus, if your in a relationship, everyday should be like valentines day, at least thats how it feels for me!

So single, in love, or complicated, this is a day to enjoy company from every side and angle!

More updates coming this weekend, and FASHION related ones this time!

I bet you've been wondering.

It's been about two weeks now since i started my internship at.... *drumroll* MSN LIFE & STYLE.
I didn't see it coming, but so far, i love it. Getting to write articles on fashion, and celebrities in fashion, it's something that interests me... alot. 






And it has been a very interesting experience. Meeting new people, and watching new concepts.
I never took journalism so seriously, until now. I have come to a realization that my writing isn't up to par. I mean, i can't seem to have that creative mind to write. I give props to all entertainment and fashion sites who write the most interesting articles about the simplest things. Just the choice of words used is something that fascinates me. All those puns really intrigue me.

That is why, i have made it a point to study these sites and the way editors and writers choose their words. I really hope i find a way to improve within the next few months.

I'm putting all fears aside, and jumping in the pond. Why not anyways! Right?!

Aside from that, being in this big city has been very interesting. Different. I can't wait for more!


Here's a question to all the readers out there: What makes you want indulge in reading something? What kind of writing gets you intrigued?

Update in Bullets!



Things have been a little all over the place for the last week, but getting the hang of it... slowly.


  • Started my internship at MSN Life & Style and i am loving it. (more on that soon)
  • Back in Penang for a mini weekend trip + surprising the boyfriend for our 2 year anniversary.
  • Bought a copy of The Perks of Being A Wallflower... FINALLY (excited to read it)
  • Sprained some muscle in my foot, so i'm walking like a cowboy.
  • Need a new phone.
  • Not used to sitting in an office from 9am-6pm
  • Diet has been haywire.
  • Currently on break for the next 4 days. (Hellsyeah for public holidays!)
That's all for now, i will be back once i get an internet connection! Hope everyone has a pleasant holiday, and a marvelous weekend!

TWO YEARS!

Happy Anniversary to my oh-so-amazing boyfriend.
You stick with me through the bad, the good, and the middle.
Things never get boring, and even after two years, there is no a day you don't make me giggle.
