D&G Spring Summer Ad Campaign 2011The two keywords are silk-chiffon and long, or is that three? Whatever it is, the above D&G Spring/Summer 2011 ad-campaign has got me wanting to be in a flowy silk-chiffon maxi dress this summer. Soft, luxurious, dreamy and romantic. Should I go for the ’70s inspired D&G floral-print look or something different? They are ever so popular this season, there are just so many to choose from.

Classic Staple: Trench Coats

0 Comments

All Season All Weather

Every girl should own at least one trench coat in her wardrobe. The perfect cover up that is as stylish as it is convenient. Wear it with a pair of heels, a pair of boots or a pair of ballerinas, a trench coat can take you from day to night, rain or shine. From a casual stroll in the park, to a day at the office, or a dinner party, you can dress it up with a skirt or dress it down with a pair of jeans. Go for the Burberry Prorsum leather trimmed twill trench coat for the most on trend look of the moment, or invest in a timeless design such as the Burberry’s cotton-twill trench coat, or go for something even more striking with a vibrant colour, a rare material, or a different cut. Whether you are going for fashion or going for utility, the options are endless.

Miu Miu Spring/Summer 2011 Collection

Miuccia Fever

MIU MIU Shopping bagsMIU MIU Cutout leather flat sandals Spring Summer 2011MIU MIU Cutout leather flat sandals Spring Summer 2011 gold zip fastening at backMy friend says that she can’t leave me alone for five minutes. She’s right! As I was minutes early for our meeting, I popped by the Miu Miu shop at the Landmark in Central to check out the collection and make use of my time. When she arrives, I was already on the sofa trying out a pair of beautiful white leather cutout thong sandals. Ca-ching! There goes HK$4,650. Oh gosh, I really need more self-control! I love the design of the handbag chains in this season’s collection, but since I already have enough handbags, I thought why not wear the design on my feet? Right? (Yea, please don’t remind me that I probably have enough pairs of shoes too.) They also have a similar style in shocking pink at the store. A quick look on the Internet once I got home, I also found other great colours on Net-a-Porter.com and the Miu Miu e-store. I really like the two-tone nude and black, too bad the e-store doesn’t do deliveries to Hong Kong. Should I buy the nude ones at Net-a-Porter too? They are slightly different to my white ones. The nude colour will go with just about everything. I also have my eyes on the Madras print goat leather bag in turquoise which is selling for around HK$12,000 at the store. There’s also black colour and white colour at the store, while the powder pink one is only available through the e-store. A classic-looking structured satchel will be a good investment for the coming seasons and sporting it in a bold and eye-catching colour is the way to go. It’s been four days and I still can’t get it out of my head – Miuccia Prada, what are you doing to me?

Spring/Summer Trends: SS11 Ladies Accessories

Colour Code

One of the key trends for this Spring and Summer is colour blocking. Open a bag of Skittles or pick at a box of Lego if you are short of inspirations, or even combinations, because the way to do it is to try out daring new colour coordination by clashing bright and bold pieces together from head to toe. Start by adding a multiple of colours to your wardrobe with this season’s accessories and get ready for some serious colour overload.

Spring/Summer Trends: Stripes

0 Comments

Strike Some Stripes

Stripes are big this season as seen on the Spring/Summer 2011 runways of all of my favourite designers. And by this time, most of us can visualize the Prada S/S 2011 ad campaign in the blink of an eye. Let it be nautical, Freddie Krueger, or gondoliers, wear it with an edge or wear it with femininity. The choice is yours.
