Legacy Victorian Style Jacket

How could someone made such a perfect fitted top in a classic and elegant design like this using denim?? I can't stop adoring this top...OMG.

Carin Wester Gladiator Sandals

No wonder Carin Wester was awarded "Designer of the year" (2005) by Swedish ELLE, she is genius! She puts the gladiator feel in this sandal without all the fuss, and made it using leather, which is suitable for rock chic style too, plus not compromising with feminine side. The sandals still look so masculine. Not to mention that it is soooo...comfortable. Did I say she is a genius? She is!

c.neeon - block print and graphics

Clara Kraetsch & Doreen Schulzs art- based brand from Berlin, c.neeon, was the winner of the 2005 Hyères Festival, a prestigious Europe-wide young -designer competition. What they showed charmed and impressed the judges with the energy and integrity of its twenty-first century adherence to Bauhaus design principles—all bright hand-blocked prints and graphic shapes.

No wonder. Just look at their pieces. Stunning, bold, and magnificent! I love the legging for sure.




Scoobidoo Net Bag


This bag is fun as its' name. Great for picnic, shopping at the market, or swimming.
Not suggested for daily use unless you add another small bag inside to keep your belonging.

Tsumori Chisato

Though I know Issey Miyake, to be honest, the name of Tsumori Chisato doesn't even ring a bell to me. She is Japanese, that I know for sure. Other than that.. ding dong. I'm blank.

Apparently, Tsumori Chisato was one of Issey Miyake's assitant back then. However, who cares? I don't care who she is or what she did back then. All I know is her pieces are so stunning and took my breath away.

Her designs are much more playful than Miu Miu, with vibrant colors, great pattern, strong details, yet using lighter and much more comfortable fabric. I am stunned.

If there is a word to substitute chic, then it should be Tsumori Chisato. I love every pieces of hers!

Antik Batik Robes

My mum bought robes or tunics from Antik Batik. She said it looks like Saree style. I agreed, but the first one is not really looks like Indian style and much more vibrant then the second one.

I think I'm going to borrow the first one real soon. LOL.

Antik Batik Deep V Neck

Antik Batik has always become my mum's favorite. And now, my favorite too. Their designer are just too genius. They could always create something simple - not too cute - elegant - stunning pieces using little details.

I'm totally in love with it's deep v neck style. I thought I will only buy the top,

but then my mum said the dress suits me well too.

So we just bought them all. The bright side is, my mum could wear them too.
*wink*

Anna Sui's Silk Dress

Not only from her family, but also from her life journey with the Indian Tribe, and also her passions and attentions of environmental protection issues, have reflected on each of her designs. Simple and neat on the big picture, perfect details on every inch of it, those are the soul of Anne Fountaine's designs.

To her, white shirts are as important and relevant as black dress. It is investment and every woman should have at least one white shirt on her wardrobe list.

To me, her pieces are art. Her style is so French, which is extremely chic! Each details give special feeling to me. Effortlessly chic, yet sophisticated, all shown without sacrificing the comfortable feeling.

I love the way she added double collars and the way the sleeves tied and shaped.

Also love her accessories collections including handbags, belts, cuffs, and many more. All reflects her taste and character with the extra details.

She really defines chic perfectly on her way, don't you think so?

Natalia Vodianova Quits Modelling

Natalia Vodianova is believed to have retired from modelling following her last appearance at Valentino's final show.

The Russian supermodel has reportedly quit the catwalk after ten years in the business to concentrate on raising her three children, according to an unamed source.

"She may do another show in the future, but only for $500,000 or this large pink diamond she's had her eye on," the source told pagesix.com.
Comment on this Article

Vodianova hit the headlines last September when she took the runway for Valentino's S/S 08 collection just days after giving birth.

Valentino is a big fan of the 25 year old beauty and the pair even celebrated his retirement by spending a week in Moscow before heading to Brazil for Carnivale. (FFUK/PR08)

Kate Moss Models for Vivienne Westwood London Fashion Week Return


Kate Moss will be back on the catwalk for Vivienne Westwood's highly anticipated return to London Fashion Week next month.

The supermodel has not hit the runway for the last five years but will make a comeback for the Westwood show in February.

Kate is more often seen in the headlines or in expensive ad campaigns than actually on the catwalk but she couldn't refuse the chance to model for fashion icon Westwood.

Vivienne Westwood has been missing from London Fashion Week for nine years, but after the success of her second line Red Label, she will be showing the autumn/winter 08 collection this February.

This follows the likes of Luella, Stella McCartney and Marc Jacobs who have all chosen to return London to show their collections for the next few seasons.

Vivienne Westwood said: "We are back by popular demand. The sales of all of our lines are increasing and we decided that the Red Label, which is successful worldwide and so popular in the UK, should have its own show." (FFUK/PR08)

Who Will Be The Next Kate Moss?

Kate Moss celebrates her 34th birthday this week and now she's getting to that age when models start to think about retiring as wrinkles take their toll.

We've all seen the images of her looking older and slightly haggard as the years of partying and an excessive lifestyle are affecting her appearance lately but who is waiting in the wings to step into her fabulously fashionable shoes?

Kate may still be in demand, but there's plenty of new, young and brilliantly fresh-faced beauties snapping at her heels. Female First gives you a round-up of some of the hottest, and most stunning new models on the scene.


Agness Deyn

Of course, she had to be on the list. Named Model of the Year 2007 she is everywhere at the moment. Agyness is instantly recognisable with her cropped, platinum blonde hair and uber-hip city style.

Originally from Lancashire she was spotted in London and the 21-year-old has been in demand ever since. She is currently fronting high profile campaigns for the likes of Burberry and Georgio Armani. She is also best friends with cool new designer Henry Holland and the pair are often seen out at the all the trendiest East-London nightspots. She can do no wrong at the moment and is one of the hottest contenders to steal Kate Moss's crown as the Queen of the British fashion circuit.

Portia Freeman

London model Portia Freeman is only 19, but is already well on her way to the top, catwalk modelling for most of the major fashion houses.

Tipped as one of the most promising models at Select Model Agency she is also seeing Kate Moss' notorious ex Pete Doherty. The rock and roll boyfriend is the perfect accessory for an up and coming star and Portia also bears a strong resemblance to Kate, even modelling her range for Topshop last year. The similarities end there, however, as Portia s very clean living and anti-drugs. Maybe she'll be the one to help sort out Pete as well as taking the catwalks by storm.

Lily Donaldson

Another highly recognisable face in the crop of new British models is Lily Donaldson, daughter of photographer Thomas Donaldson.

Tall and long limbed she has appeared in just about every catwalk show going - and the advertising campaigns just keep flooding in. She was nominated for Model of the Year in 2005 and has been named as one of the favourite models of Lanvin designer Alber Elbez. She is currently starring in the latest Burberry campaign and can been seen as the face of Miss Dior Cherie

Chloe Hayward

Discovered while buying shoes in Topshop, Chloe Hayward then went on to be the face of the high street giant's winter 2007 ad campaign.

Signed to Select the 18-year-old has been compared to Julie Christie and Veronica Lake. After achieving excellent A-levels she decided to take a gap year to pursue her modelling career before she heads off to study at Birmingham University. Although we may not see much of her over the next few years Chloe is definitely one to be looking out for in the future.

Daisy Lowe

Kate Moss is just as well known for her partying and appearances at gigs around London. If it's cool credibility and rock and roll friends that you're after then Daisy Lowe has certainly got those boxes ticked.

Daughter of Pearl Lowe and Gavin Rossdale she has just signed up to be the face of Doc. Martens shoes and is appearing in more and more fashion magazines with her unusual and super cool sense of style. She might not be walking on the catwalks, but she's certainly at all the shows. Edgy and cool expect hip, up and coming British designers to be all over her very soon

So Kate Moss may still be one of the world's most beautiful women, and no doubt it'll be a very long time before she drifts away from the fashion limelight, but her time at the top is coming to an end and these new beauties are the ones to watch. (FFUK/PR08)

Romantic Jigzaw Puzzle Necklace

Ever wishing to have a romantic pair pendant with your beloved one, but feels bored with those heart divide into two shape, or key and the keyhole, or two lover kissing and those similar designs?

Thanks to those playful and quircky designers who came up with a very playful and original idea to create this jigzaw puzzle pair pendant necklace made of acrylic! The pendant could be paired and pack into one, but still cheerful and playful to be worn separately.

Not too cheezy to be worn by boys, and feminine enough for the girls to have it. What could you ask for more?

Plus, you could made this pendant as a social status, I mean, the puzzle could be translated as a bit puzzled and complicated? So, if you have a relationship that is complicated enough, as too good to be thrown away, but too complicated to be stated as love or couple..., well...just give your partner this necklace and let him/her think the meaning as the way he/she likes it.

So, either romantic or complicated, this is juat the perfect and playful necklaces to be worn and given to. What do you think?

T. Le Clerc Powder


T. LeClerc stands for the owner's name, and how T.LeClerc got started? 1881, Thophile LeClerc kept a pharmacy near the Place de la Madeleine, the focus of luxury and elegance in Paris. He came from a family of painters, and showed a keen interest in color, light and beauty.

In his dispensary, he carried out research on make-up and developed a secret formula for rice powder which gave women an incomparable, velvety complexion.

I've been wearing T.LeClerc's cosmetic range for ages. First my mom bought them for me, and I've changed into other cosmetic brands so many times, yet I found this T.LeClerc's products are the best that suits my sensitive skin.

What I love the most is the color range. They have many ranges of pink, peach, and even purple, lavender, sky blue, khaki, light peach, and other various colors as you can see here, for their powder product range. The powder doesn't make my skin oily or too dry, feel so light on skin, but stay quite long (4-5 hours) to lighten up your look. With various color range, it will easier for you to blend the color that you love. Almost like prescriptives.

I love the casing too. It is so classic and simple. Yet elegant and look a bit industrial. The sizes are just perfect and compact enough as part of travel make up kit. Besides, they also have the feminine metallic pinkish packaing for the powder in travel kit size. Wonderful isn't it?

The last time I review about Bourjois, some Indonesian members (Vilia, Csakura, and Fehuang) told me that Bourjois is available in Indonesia. Supposed this T.LeClerc is also available in Indonesia? Anyone ever use this brand too?
