June 11, 2009

Haylee Stewart: “I was really wanting to know if you could help me find an outfit (mainly the dress) a lot like lily’s in the attached pic??? I really love it and want it urgently! Kind regards”

Well, Haylee, Lily’s wearing the nicest mini dress by Burberry Prorsum Fall 2009! She shone at Burberry Day, May 29 in London. Lily looked very stylish in her black tights and short version of the dress:

Myne olive summer skirt: Vanessa Hudgens’s choice

June 2, 2009

I’m always not sure about which skirt to buy. I’m always not sure which shoes I should wear to some skirt and so on… But this time when I saw this nice multi-coloured summer skirt and how Vanessa Hudgens paired with simple black tank — I just wanted the same! :) This one is by Myne, you can purchase it at Shopbop ($191) and at Singer22 ($220):

SkullSpective to Spring-Summer 2009

May 6, 2009

This is one of my favourite posts, I call it “Spective”. Either Retro- or AnimalSpective, today is about SkullSpective :) to frighten sticky guys at the party :)
I must say I love graphic tees, and skulls always look interesting and attracting, the last is mostly important :) There is a skull tees set you can try this summer :)
Alexander McQueen is a skull master in some sense: this tank is available at Farfetch, while at Topshop you can find not less attractive one:

Alexander Wang vs Nasty Gal vs Asos vs Forever21

April 27, 2009

I already posted about this amazing mini dress so much favoured by celebrities. Slip into Alexander Wang’s body-contouring color-block stretch dress for a show-stopping look with plenty of 1980s attitude. For maximum impact, mirror the runway styling and team it with strong heels and a simple clutch.

An elegant silhouette with just the right detailing Jasmine di Milo tulip skirt is easy to style with silky blouses for a party look or with a fun tee shirt for some day time glamour! It is available at Mytheresa for $606, which probably too much for skirt:
