Perfection

Wish I had this in my backyard.

Nada Sawaya

New York based Lebanese bag designer Nada Sawaya.

Love the geometric pattern.

Balenciaga S/S 2012

For their newest campaign Balenciaga acted stronger and edgier with the whole atmosphere of a cozy yet quirky backdrop apartment with up-and-coming model Laura Kampman, photographed by Steven Meisel

I personally love the direction of the campaign. I honestly miss some "heroin chic". Im bored with all the ads with models looking way too perfect- wearing too much bling, having too long/too straight/ too shiny hair.

Anyway I love this collection with its dramatic structure, space-age fabrics and prints in a simplistic, everyday feel.

Just perfection.

Somebody That I Used To Know

Yes, I haven't blogged in a year.

But Ive got my reasons I swear to u.

With the revolution going on here since Jan 2011 plus being pregnant myself & giving birth last July, lets just say I had way too much on my plate. Now Im finally back to blogging (it being one of this year's resolutions n all)

Anyway this song has been stuck in my head since i was hearing it everywhere in London last month.

Enjoy!:)

Valentino for GAP

There are few reasons to sleep on a London pavement in November .

To roll out the bed down outside Gap's flagship store in Oxford Street on Friday 4th Nov night to be first in line for the arrival of Valentino's capsule collection on Saturday. The chance to invest in limited-edition Valentino at high-street prices doesn't come often, but Valentino has created a collection to celebrate the arrival of Gap in Italy.

Oh how i wish i was in London now.....*sigh*

Latest Lust: Chanel

I fell in love with this bag from the Fall-Winter 2010/11 Chanel collection.
I love the black paint dodge effect in the bottom, its a pop of new to the classic chanel bags but still in black n white, essentially chanel.
Although I think I would've preferred it if it was the other way round, a black bag with white paint....
What do u think?
