what's left of me

is this the end? i hope not. i'm going to miss you. at least i think i would.

as ubiquitous as mert & mercer.

as much as i love kate moss, it appears that ms moss is everywhere these days. overdose (no pun intended kate!) much? she's appearing in the new CK ad, the LV ad, the cavalli ad and now, 9 months after the head-honchos at burberry's bid adieu to our dear kate, they've put her back as the (re?)new face of burberry's fall '06 collection along with stella tenant. and it appears that everyone's daughter/son/niece/nephew is being debuted in this ad campaign. nepotism pays y'all! how i wish my last name is ferry/irons/hicks (as in sophie). shot by mario testino, the ad campaign is fabulous. i like them better than mert & mercer's shots for LV.



much thanks to vogue.uk for the picture and info.

hey nicole!!

ok. another obsessive post about nicole richie again! hah.

lucky thing she didn't wrap the head scarf around her head, that would have been a MAJOR fashion mishap. clash of patterns much? hah. so i completely love how she looks here. not too crazy about the dress though. wonder who's it by. i don't quite fancy the cut around the neckline. the pattern i can take, the cut - i'm not feeling!


BUT wot i do love, and it's not hard to guess, is the eggplant balenciaga! reckon she only has one lariat and she dyes them in different colours to match her outfits? ummm, i think not! hah. i wanna be her best friend! like totally! can you imagine the wardrobe inside the richie mansion? i think it's like a mini balenciaga boutique! haha. move over la lohan. i'm moving in! i'm completely in my own world! LOVES IT!

and is that DJ Am in the background? i'm so hoping she's getting back with him. rumour has it (well, according to Stuff magazine at least) that she was seen getting comfy at a night club with - get this - matt dillon. ew! when i read that, i was completely shocked! makes me wanna clutch my pearls and say "nay!".

and speaking of la lohan. the couture-loving, actress celebrated her 20th birthday yesterday, 2nd july. happy birthday! love ya bitch! here's one of her and nicole. BFFs yo!


much love to smart. for the pictures

asian invasion

while du juan is making her rounds in Louis Vuitton's Fall 06 campaign (and perhaps YSL), her other asian counterparts are not keeping quiet. so Miuccia Prada has picked asian beauties as the new faces of Miu Miu's Fall 06 collection. i've only seen the ad campaign once on Urban (a singaporean fashion/lifestyle news pullout) and so still waiting with bated breath for it to appear online or in magazines. it's for fall so i'm guessing it'll be out this month or early august. so brace yourself for mainland chinese actresses zhou xun and dong jie together with japanese model lina ohta.

i'm slightly weirded out by this sudden crave for asian invasion in the fashion world. and i'm completely thrown off course by this peculiar choice of spokesperson for Miu Miu. isn't Miuccia very well-known for being unapologetically aryan? as in, with the exception of naomi campbell, there hasn't exactly been models/spokesperson of a different ethnic background in a prada/miu miu campaign or runway. i suppose times have changed. still, i can't wait for the ad campaign!

Louis Vuitton 06 - It doesn't ads up!

ok, i'm not too thrilled about the whole ad campaign for LV's Fall 06 collection. i think it's nice, rather artistic. quite avant garde. but i cannot comprehend the bags! i understand the "must have" trend of leopard prints but i'm very unamused and not even slightly impressed by the design of the bag! not since Fendi decided that it was fabulous(obviously a bad design mistake) to showcase a whole collection of racoon/squirrel inspired bags, have i seen an uglier collection of bags. what is up with the make up? i reckon it's to portray opulence of some sorts. it works, i guess but tacky. tacky. tacky. pretty much sums up the LV collection, no?

meanwhile, i think the ads are gorgeous, no?



after all the drama kate moss went through the past year, i think it's great to see her bounce back into the limelight and show the world why she's still our most beloved supermodel! again, not too thrilled about the bags or the red suede-looking top!

raquel zimmermann never looked better, eh? i think the baubles look like they are alive and about to eat raquel's face though! too huge. and du juan. i'm not her biggest fan. i think she's great but she lacks the oomph. however, kudos on scoring this campaign (and from what i've heard the YSL campaign as well!).










and can i say "haute beyond hott!"? i LURRVE daria. ms werbowy hams it up again with this incredible shot for LV! behold the stunning bone structure! i'm completely enamoured. reminds me of her lancome beauty shot!

nicole balenciaga sightings!

ok, i think i should just create a new blog for my nicole richie and balenciaga sightings! hah. this is getting crazy. my obssession for the both of them is going wayyy out of control! haha. she's my muse and i so wanna carry a balenciaga!

Sighting #1

LOVES her! tres fabulous mc fab! i mean honestly, just imagine this simple fabulosity. she's rocking the "simple deconstructed" white tee (in my words, vagabond chic yo!) and skinny jeans! i'm working towards that now. i'm starting to trust myself in wearing more white t-shirts. hah! and the skinny jeans with flip flops! LOVES it! i don't think i can ever pull off that head scarf though! it's too bryanboy for me. too i'm channelling my mom. OVERSIZED shades!! gosh. i call it the nicole richies and honestly, most people call them those too! we're doing our best to channel nicole! haha. when you have a pair of shades nicknamed after you (think Jackie O shades) then you know you're a style icon! i want them! balenciaga le dix motorcyle in black!

Sighting #2


OMG! like starbucks is totally out y'all and coffee bean is in! throw out your venti chai lattes (buh bye MK and Ashley!) and get yourselves a cup of something something from coffee bean! we love you nicole! and the jumpsuit/shorts - LOVES it! i'm trying to find the right pair of shorts. i'm rather tall so it'll look slightly off if my shorts are too short! hah. can you imagine a 6'3" tall guy in short shorts! i can even bring myself to imagine! haha. and what's this? the head scarf seems to be the new trend nowadays, eh? and to complete the whole nicole richie look? nothing does it better than a balenciaga in mustard/canary yellow! gotta love nicole!

much love to justjared for the pictures!
