Where should I wear you?

These are four lovely dresses from Zara that captivated my heart this season.
If ever I will have the chance to wear them it well surely turn me into a serious feminine darling.
I don't feel nervous being ladylike, I just fell in love with how they brought together the blend of romanticism
and uniqueness of these pieces. It bothers me that I do not have the perfect reason to purchase them.
Did I tell you, women here are required to wear Abaya (robe-like black dress) to cover us every time we go out of public? I would be so damn dead if I wear them on casual days because of the so-called dress code.
I do not regularly go to private parties where the only freedom is. It would be ironic if these lovely dresses were on my possession and they would only fill my closet with shame. Sigh.

I wish you a great time and may you all have the amazing reasons where to wear your favorite dress!

Black Biker Jacket

Don't touch my purse!
That would have been my mantra this year to conserve my resources.
I was only in the mall last night ought to assist my friend who confidently pulled me along with her for a shop. She's going to a party anytime soon and she's so trustworthy to keep me in stride with her style.
But when the window display of Forever 21 crying out loud for my attention, thereupon my purse was thrilled with excitement. 

I was initially stressed out if I should purchase this but my style calmness in that sudden difficulty mend me.
With the result, I spoil myself with this new Black Biker Jacket.
It is quite dependable for the cold weather and perfect for a stylish outfit a la Lisbeth Salander from The Girl with the Dragoon Tattoo. Although it's a bit too dark, this adds up to a mysterious charm and carry me off by a different route a little bit farther from my girly look.


 Other jackets that I've been eyeing too.

Duran Duran & The Supermodels radiates in Girl Panic!

I hardly had an extreme doubt if I should post this, in view of the fact that this topic is already gone viral all over the net, but I can't put an end to my excitement, it was a shock to my system that Duran Duran brought together five of the 80s and 90s Supermodel legends to cast as actual bands by responding interviews/acting a scene/lip-synching in their new music video "Girl Panic" directed by Jonas Akerlund (who directed Lady Gaga's "Telephone" video and Kate Moss Dior Addict commercial) .
I am still filled with wonder on how they successfully come up together, but my excitement won't stop there, the Supermodels are also on the cover of Harper's Bazaar UK with Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana who are also both present on the set with a brief cameo on the video.

Helena Christensen, Danish (born December 25, 1968)
as drummer Roger Taylor
Naomi Campbell, British (born May 22, 1970)
as frontman Simon Le Bon
Eva Herzigova, Czech (born March 10, 1973)
as keyboardist Nick Rhodes
Yasmin Le Bon, British Iranian (born October 29, 1964), married to Simon Le Bon
as their unnamed Guitarist.
Cindy Crawford, American (born February 20, 1966)
as bassist John Taylor


The video already hit Youtube on November 8, 2011 and the total views hastily soared within 6 days.
Though I like better Duran Duran's "Ordinary World", yet somehow I had been profoundly impressed with this new video's drenching up of pretty models in rock-and-roll glitz and glamour, and the amazingly wrapped of fashion where in every place sparkles with camera flashes, leather, champagne, mascara and etc. And I would care to add up that the real Duran Duran members played the supporting role such as waiter, bellboy, media and chauffeur. 


But you know what the Supers have in common? They are still fashionable with enviable size figures at their age! Hands down to the supers! yey!

New York Fashion Week : Rodarte Spring Summer 2012

Yellow is my favorite color, the cheerfulness, vibrancy and sunshine-y mood effect explains it all. 

Sunflower is my favorite flower, the fiery blooms, flamboyancy and apparently its yellow color justifies it all.

So I was enthralled and be-charmed with the Rodarte Spring Summer 2012 Ready To Wear collection during the New York Fashion Week. Vincent Van Gogh, sunflower, silk, tulle, shapes, skirts, turquoise, gold, yellow - Mulleavys dreamy creation is too beautiful and too glamorous to ignore.

Worth it or Regret it! Let your feet do the talking

In a span of almost 4 months, I was such a failure that I did notice I was snapping (well for me) myriad of shoes. I can't help myself every time I go inside a shop and sometimes sale opportunity is knocking my heart. So here I am with my row of shoes (I intentionally not included few of those mostly worn because they look very exhausted, yay!) and telling you if each of this footwear is worth your money or not. 

Topshop (Ankle Boots) - It is so light in an instant. You can even fold them. Worth it!
Koton (Ballet Flats) - Perfect for jeans, skirts and dresses. Comfort is built right in. Worth it!
Camper (Wedges) - As they say, less stock on display in a shop store the more expensive the shoes are, but this time I don't mind. Indeed, very foot friendly and Camper is very attention to detail. The strappy suede are stylish for both work and play. Worth it!
Lyne's (Wedges) -  I was in the mood to look elegant but a little bit sexy the day I bought them. Sadly, my decision to buy is dumb. Having beautiful shoe shouldn't mean killing my feet. Regret it! 
River Island (Sandals) - This would be a perfect break from my office shoes. Worth it!
Nike (Sporty) - The time that I purchased them I was preferring Nike when it comes to sport gear, but the color for me is a risk. Well, it is still Worth it!
