belvedere.

after our adrenaline-pumped day at RWS doing the sundown fest rehearsals, jas, alicia and i escaped to jas' pad for a quick wardrobe change before heading down the belvedere for the fifth avenue shoe repair launch party. jasmine's giant wardrobe was like walking through a fashion wonderland.

we missed the show and all, but the drinks saved the day.

word of caution, never ever send fashion people to industrial spaces without freezing the place down to zero degrees. we will turn out looking like sweat machines.

stalking anna.

anna dello russo's blog is just beyond inspirational!



from her blog:

"10 quotes of style and fashion:

1) If there is harmony between ITSELF and his own BODY, a STYLE will born.
2) When you don't feel to dress means that you are depressed. You need a FASHION SHOWER.
3) If you like to be relaxed, you will never get the LOOK. Fashion is always UNCOMFORTABLE!
4) NO matter the size of your body! FASHION to flatter every figure
(VOGUE US April 2010)
5) Wear just NIGHT-CLOTHES in daytime. It is UNEXPECTED!
6) Color me! ACCESSORIZE me! shock me!
7) FASHION is such stuff as DREAMS are made on...
8) Fashion is a MUSE, you must seduce her.
9) Shall we dance? take your MUSE to dance, fashion loves music.
10) So between FASHION and STYLE? Absolutely FASHION... is less pretentious, is authentic. FASHION is declaration of own freedom."

"Top 10 front row rules:

1) YOU MUST WEAR OUTFIT ONCE ONLY.
2) WEAR GOOD SHOES. DON'T BOTHER WITH A BAG CAUSE WHEN YOU PUT IT ON THE FLOOR IT COULD BE ANYONE.
3) WEAR COAT AS A DRESS. ONE-SHOT IS BETTER.
4) DON'T WEAR SUNGLASSES, IF YOU NOT ARE VIP (VERY VERY IMPORTANT PERSON). IT'S IMPOLITE.
5) SOMEBODY WEARING YOUR SAME OUTFIT? WONDERFUL, YOU MADE THE RIGHT CHOICE!
6) FLASHY JEWELS PERSONALIZE YOUR STYLE.
7) NOTHING SUCCEEDS LIKE EXCESS!
8) DON'T PEEK INTO THE CLIPBOARD OF WHO IS SITTING NEXT.
9) DON'T SAY HELLO SHOWILY AND WARMLY AT WHO IS IN FRONT OF YOU.
10) SHARE YOUR LOVE FOR THE SHOW ON TWITTER AS MUCH YOU CAN."

miu miu resort.

i love miu miu, and i think the resort collection resonated nicely with me. i wonder if it was because of the retro aura, the cloyingly cutesy prints, the go-go shoes or lindsay wixon. either way, i likey!

















in an odd and self-plugging manner, the pants on the left kind of reminded me of the wide legged ones i made for my fall 2010 collection two months ago. the piece is now available at Victoria Jomo, 47 haji lane.

emporio armani, karmen pedaru, mario sorrenti.

i wished the potholes back home would smoke up like that. wouldn't it be the perfect type of landscape to walk around in? there's so much elegance and mystery.
