Colour Me Pretty

Beige - Pale and Insignificant? Not a Chance!

Call it sand, camel, caramel or even butterscotch if you're being extra fancy, but its all the same. Beige is back with a vengeance and I love it. This silky smooth colour melts the pages in the Glossys and looks best as a coat for the colder seasons.


Dip me in a little caramel butterscotch cream and colour me pretty!

Bet You Didn't Know

Fashion evolves. Fashion inspires.

Fashion Teaches!

Canadian Designer, Jason Wu, tells Elle Magazine that he owes a lot to fashion. Did you know that Jason Wu moved to Canada from Taiwan at the age of nine. The young Jason was having difficulty picking up the language and his teacher thought it would be easier if he started reading things with pictures. So she gave him a stack of fashion magazines. He recalls seeing a Christian Lacroix spread and was desperate to figure out what it was about. In attempts to understand the images that he was intrigued by, fashion helped him to learn English!

Wibble Waddle STRUT!

This is Beth Ditto, lead singer of a UK band called Gossip.



If you paid any attention during the F/W 2010 fashion shows you would have spotted her sitting front row at some of the biggest fashion shows along other A-List celebrity guests. Now Beth recently graced the runway for Jean Paul Gaultier's Ready-to-Wear S/S 2011 collection; She was used as a muse to showcase XXL appeal. Ditto seems to be the perfect fit for designer Gaultier as he has a knack for choosing models who will shake up the status quo. The model/singer that boast a size 28 figure may have recieved a thunderous applause while slinking herself down the runway, but not everyone was impressed.

Ditto definitely embraces her curves and had this to say to the haters:

"I don't understand all these women who say they feel betrayed by fashion. A piece of clothing can't talk — it can't tell you that you can't have it — so really, you're just telling yourself that," she told the Times in 2009. "You make yourself the victim, because if you want clothes that bad, then make them yourself. You have to get creative if you're fat."

Whether Gaultier was trying to prove a point about the beauty of full figured women or shed some light on the controversy between XXL and XXS models, he definitley had everyone in the audience perched on the edge of their seats!

Hairstyle by Odile Gilbert for Aveda. September 13, 2010. 
I absolutely adore the side swept bang with the jewel incrusted barrette. The garment pattern is gorgeous! I love how the mid section (waist) is fitted to the body, as the pleated skirt adds texture, and volume to the garment - giving the model a nice shape. Kinda gives it a mediaeval, with a modern twist. Love this look!
