Delfina 'Extraordinary' Delettrez

2012-01-28T06:47:00.000-08:00

Maybe not all of you are Delfina Delettrez fan, I understand it because she has her own precious imagination in building her jewellery house. This fourth generation of Fendi family is very strong statement of showing a personality of both the buyer and the designer herself.

Since her collection is one of a kind, some of the specialist fine jewellery piece might be out of stock and you could request for it and it might take you a couple weeks to finish it. Take a look at the spider bracelet above, if you think that it's ordinary then you need to know the detail of it. According to the jewellery specialist from Couturelab, it features grey diamonds, emeralds, rubies and pearls. Moreover, it could cost you approximately £48,000!!!

Anyway, since Valentine's day is near I do think that the ring above is a perfect gift for your lady. For me it's so meaningful and since the heart is hidden inside, it can be interpreted as only both lovers who knows and responsible to keep the love alive.

xoxo,

Evelyn Halim

PS. Here is some quote of the day that might be worth to think.

Happiness is not a possession to be prized, it is a quality of thought, a state of mind.

First of all, HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR to all of you!!

I don't have much to say actually, but here are the pictures that I took at Chinese New Year's Eve and I think they are all pretty much presenting myself (as in style and personality).

Someone asked me, what is your style actually and why you are wearing so many jewellery?? To be honest, I don't know what category my style is, but I do know that I wear things that speak to me and I treat them as my armours to boost my confident. Is it a good answer? No? Yes? I'll leave it with your own opinion.

I could say that I'm a Givenchy lover. How can I resist those creation of the mighty Ricardo Tisci?? I bet you can't resist those clothes on Givenchy store as well as I do.

What do you think when you look at the picture above? What I see is the "Mother Mary ver. of Givenchy".

In addition, I would like to apologise for the inconstant blogpost because I really am busy with uni thingy now and somehow it come out into my mind, "do I need to close my blog?" I think I'll leave this question and hope that you can help me figure it out. Cheers!

xoxo,

P.S. Don't forget to hype my look on lookbook, thanks!

2011-11-24T16:49:00.000-08:00

Thanks to Harvey Nichols, I met my fav shoe maker today. Yes, it is Christian Louboutin 20th Anniversary book signing event.

He was very kind and we did chat a little while he was signing my book. I did tell him how gorgeous daffodils is, and he was flattered.

These are some of the crystal collection of his and you can see how gorgeous they are. These shoes will indeed make your dress even more glamorous. Anyway, have you manage to get the book? Here are some spoilers.

There are still plenty more things to look at. For instance, Christian's biography, history of his collection, and so many more!

PS. Did you know that Pluminette is one of Christian's first collection. It was his Spring/Summer 1995 collection.

Ciao!

Ferragamo's White Christmas Event

2011-11-19T13:37:00.000-08:00

It was Thursday, 17th of November 2011 along the prestigious Old Bond Street there is christmas lights decorating some of the big branded store. It's special for invitation event and I'm attending the Salvatore Ferragamo's one with my dearest friend.

Every girl needs to bring a cosmetics purse inside her bag. That's what my mom said. I used to ignore her and left my eye liner pencil, mascara and tissue unarranged inside my bag. It is actually annoying for me when I need to find them in quick. But now I found it convenient to have a cosmetics purse align with you. Ferragamo offers a beautiful lady look yet practical cosmetics purse that made of parachute material. So, if you don't have any, go to the nearest Ferragamo store near you.

A classic crocodile handbag, isn't it very classy? I think they have it in leather, but this crocodile piece would be more amazing if the buckle is covered by swarovski.

Ferragamo does making you feel and look like a true lady.

The road are closed for a night and it's somehow fun to see the attraction and listen to jazz music in a breezy night.

Those are the carved ice along the street.

And finally I got to find and wear my Givenchy Panther sweater. It's worth buying, since I love this collection so bloody much!

I must say that I have a crush on Daffodils, and this Daffs Booties are the comfiest Louboutin I ever had. However, its degree of comfortable only last for 5 hours and then you can't feel your feet anymore.

After the event, I went for a dinner in Savoy Grill in Savoy Hotel of course and it's one of Gordon Ramsay's restaurant. I recommend you to try the scallop and the chateaubrian meat (as shown above), also don't forget to try the famous Billionare Bomble for the drink.

Bon appétit!

Marry the Night

2011-11-10T11:31:00.001-08:00

Well done for both Gaga and Formichetti. In the EMA Award 2011, Gaga receive four awards and perform Marry the Night in Paco Rabanne by Manish Arora for Spring 2012. It suddenly remembering me of Pleats Please and Victor&Rolf. Anyway, congrats to our mother monster!

Stunning hat by Philip Treacy. I'm surprise that he made a different type of hat than he usually produced. But, that hat is uber cool! And here are other collection by Paco Rabanne for S/S 2012.

Very dramatising yet amusing! Here are some more collection of Paco, but in more edgy and wearable look, except for Treacy's hat, we leave it to Gaga.

Cheers!

Harry Potter in London

2011-11-01T08:25:00.000-07:00

In the contrary of the first picture, Harry Potter is DESIRABLE!
Who doesn't scream when I say Harry Potter? First of all, let me tell you that Harrods is one amazing store ever! Not only because of the Chanel exhibition last time, but now it invites us to the world of Harry Potter.

Remember the red dress? It was the one that Hermione worn on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. It was great on her, however, I like the other two more because it looks more elegant.

Those are a tiny bit of the replica that you can buy from the exhibition. There are still plenty more interesting things to buy, for example the Voldemort mask that I wore. You can scare your friends with it!

You see some pieces of the world of Potter, now what are you waiting for? Hurry up and come to Harrods before the exhibition ends, which is on January 2012.

The moment when you eat a good food is the time when you enjoying your life. Last time I tried a three Michelin Star restaurant named Alain Ducasse that located in Dorchester Hotel. Here are the seasonal food of the month. They are super delicious and the presentations are great!

It is cold out there, so I picked up my Burberry coat from the F/W'11 collection. It's a nice black coat that can be wear anytime, anywhere. It is indeed very warm. Anyway, I got my hair cut in Richard Ward. He's the one who did Kate Middleton, Elizabeth Hurley, Rowan Atkinson, and so many more.

The Transformation of Lady Dior

2011-10-02T14:42:00.000-07:00

Dior without Galliano is not the end of the world as what I thought it would be. Bill Gaytten, Galliano's ex-assistant is taking Galliano's shoes in Dior S/S 2012 collection. However, even though there are lots of rumours about the future of House of Dior, Dior is Dior with all the classy yet eccentric colours that transform the famous Lady Dior handbag into one of the it bag in 2012.

Dior, what can I say. It defines glamour and elegance.

Jordan Askill, the 3D Guy

2011-10-01T12:17:00.000-07:00

Have you heard of Jordan Askill? He's the former assistant of Heidi Slimane at Dior Home.

Anyway, his collections are to-die-for. His jewellery is considered as fine one, since it was made to be like a sculpture that consist a lot of emotion in it. It is something that you would wear with your simple look to make you look like Daphne Guinness.

I saw the bracelet above at Liberty London and I actually tried it before. It was heavy. Of course it is because it was made of sterling silver. It costs around £2000, but it's worth a penny. Askill's pieces are sold at Liberty, Dover Street Market, Matches, Opening Ceremony NY and LA, Tokyo and MidWest.

Fashion in Societies: Mugler, Pugh and Demeulemesteer

2011-09-30T15:43:00.000-07:00

Who said fashion is just about art? It reflects the current politics and world's situation, as well.
You know that story about Dominique Strauss-Kahn, the 62-year old ex Managing Director of International Monetary Fund (IMF). Here is some brief story about him, he was accused of raping a 32-year old maid at the suite of Sofitel New York Hotel. This issue of women being raped is like a hot cake. Even fashion designers like Gareth Pugh, Mugler and Ann Demeulemeester are provoking at the perverse men.

(above) The collaboration between Mugler and Nicola Formichetti show how women are being the victims. The exposure to the skin at side, breastplate cut in half in which resulting a greater exposure to the breast and the asymmetric yet trailed looking ribbon bring our imagination to the girl who was abused and in a rush, searching for help.

Moreover, the colour palette used in this 2012 S/S collection are nude and white. It makes the concept clearer, which is silent. Women can't do anything about what happened to them, the abusive manner of men, of course.

In the other hand, Pugh is show us the picture of women hidden in black and white cage. If you see it closely, you can see that the mouth is covered with the cage, as well as the shoes. From my point of view, it represent that women are controlled by man. They can't deliver their opinion because their mouths are sealed, they can't go anywhere because their feet are controlled. Basically, all parts of women's body and soul are controlled by men. That's what I got from Pugh.

If we going more further, it mustn't be a coincidence that Ann Demeulemeester also provoking men perverse in her latest collection. In addition, she add that lone woman feeling into it. Examining from the details, Ann let the clothes loose, sweeping the floor. In contrast, the ties are bind in the bottom part of the skirt. The issue behind the collection is a woman that was lonely, the loose clothes show how she suppose to be free, however, there's a tie bind on her leg that makes her hard to walk in a search of happiness.

Enough about the interpretation. I just want to say that fashion is a part of art and it depicts our societies, it's not just about a beautiful girl in a branded clothes. If you are more interested in Mugler, there is a video that I uploaded above. It's the second time Gaga is helping her best friend / stylist, Nicola.

The Mystery of Haute Couture

2011-09-28T16:51:00.000-07:00

"Dior couture is a platform, and it has a huge influence into the ready-to-wear collection." - John Galliano

Haute Couture is French phrase for "high sewing", and I think we are all know that it is the most expensive clothes ever made. It nearly cost 6-digit USD. However, we usually just wow-ing on haute couture collection, but have you ever think of entering the secret world of haute couture? Let me get you into one.

There are around 15 couture houses and there are only 200 members of the club society. Most of them are not celebrities. Celebrities are lend by fashion houses, but they are not the real buyers of couture. It is indeed hard to get into the club, since they need to keep up in buying those art collections.

Yana Rudkovskaya in her Dior Haute Couture

They are all fortunate. Here are the list of some of the club members are multimillionaire like Daphne Guinness, Betsy Bloomingdale, Delphine Arnault, Eugine Niarchos, Marissa Berenson, and also the royals, including Princess Caroline (The Princess of Hannover), Queen Rania of Jordan and Princes Lalla Salma of Morocco.

So, who are this women really is? Why did they spend $100,000 on one dress? What are they rules?

Go and spend some of your time to watch this documentary and solve the mystery.

"All women what they have in common is the desire to acquire the most expensive clothes that money can buy."

Hello Kitty Revival

2011-09-26T14:25:00.000-07:00

I think most of us know Hello Kitty already. Sanrio's famous red ribbon girl is now back to its home town, London. It collaborated with Liberty London in making a new art fabrics collection. Let's take a peek of what this little kitty did in Liberty.

This girly kitty is always related with beauty. Liberty offers Hello Kitty jewellery box for £18 and and wash set for £10. It is affordable yet beautify your room.

Blues Clues

2011-09-22T09:34:00.000-07:00

It is not a football recap, but in this post I'll talk about the match that I watched yesterday. It was a Carling Cup match between Chelsea and Fulham. Located in Stamford Bridge, there are so many Blues fans from kids until grandparents.

I'm impressed with Chelsea girls. They are devoted their time to prepare beautifully for the match. Applying blue mascara, eye liner and they even polish their nail blue! However, I'm not a Chelsea fan, so I'm wearing my vermillion YSL tee, which is ironic because somehow it looks like red (refers to Manchester United), and paired it with the most comfortable pants ever made by Thakoon. For the outer, I wore Y3 blazer, that is also super comfy!

If Chelsea's mascot is a lion, I choose panda as my mascot of the day. I've been in love with penguin, but somehow it's so hard to find penguin things, so my heart fell to my old love, panda. Could you spotted how many pandas I brought?

From this match I learned that even though we have so many works that has to be done, we should spare some time to chill, relax, find different atmosphere! It could enlighten you up.

Have a good day!

Victoria by Victoria Beckham

2011-09-14T00:46:00.000-07:00

The price range for Victoria Beckham is super expensive for teenager, but now she opens her second line "Victoria by Victoria Beckham". The design was inspired by the edgy cartoon, Emily the strange, with the touch of poppy colours. For the price, Victoria lower the price point to £350 - £650.

"The perfect little summer dress, something that was fun, something that was girly, something that was easy to wear, something that would take you from day through the night." - Victoria

What do you think?

I think this collection is more casual and suit for teenager as they don't look too old. It is indeed very girly as well. Anyway, did you notice the heels? It's Charlotte Olympia, the British shoe designers.

NYFW 3 Elements

2011-09-12T09:52:00.000-07:00

Here it comes, the New York Fashion Week fever. The last three shows that caught my eyes are Victoria Beckham, Thakoon and Derek Lam. The funny thing about this three designers is that they have the elements of life. Work in Derek, Sports in VB, Play in Thakoon.

Derek plays with the bold and bright colours. Look at his designs, it's like he's inspired by the office clothes. The asymmetrical-cut blazer in the middle looks so unique yet classic. However, the look on the right reminds me of Givenchy. Chic.

Located in NYC Library, Carrie Bradshaw's wedding scene, Victoria brings out the sporty looks combined by the bold suede look a like navy blue and pure white. All of the looks represents Victoria's style. It's simple. It does give the sense of relaxation to the audience.

Last but not least, Thakoon. He's Spring 2012 collection speaks, "come and play with me". Look at those bright colours and playful designs. See the one on the right. Isn't it a batik-inspired-print? And the one on the left, there's a touch of vintage-modern look. Checkers represents the modern era, and the soft floral prints bring us back to the old vintage memories.

Fashion isn't just about clothes or colours. It represents our life. We should respect our life more, don't stress to much on work, balance it with sports and play! Hope you have a wonderful day.

RICK IN NICOLA, a picture tells a thousand words.

2011-09-11T08:45:00.000-07:00

I painted this painting like 2 weeks ago. At that time I was poisoned by all Formichetti thingy, so I took all my art supplies and painted a combination of both Rick (zombie kid) and Formichetti. Then, just yesterday night my best girl, Devina, told me to email it to Nicola. And I did.

Surprisingly, in the morning Devina told me that my painting was featured in Nicola's Pop Up Shop official website. I was like.... Pardon me???

I told her that I'm so happy I could die. Now my confidence in art has boosted. Even though I don't do art like I used to do back in high school, I think I can never take away that feeling when I listen to the brush stroke.

My message to you, never underestimate your talent, like seriously, people don't have rights to judge you, you know your talent yourself.

NICOLA'S

2011-09-10T11:52:00.000-07:00

Have you check Nicola's pop up store yet?

This panda lover was helped by Gage/Clemenceau Architects and transformed the 50 Walker Street into a mirrored prism. It's like an exhibition for many people because we can see and buy Mugler runway pieces and also the things that Gaga wore for albums and videos.

Formichetti said, "I wanted to find a medium that relates to all the work that I do. Mirrors fit because they reflect and multiply things - as does my work."

It does reminds me of Thierry Mugler's perfume, ANGEL.
Anyway, let's take a peek of what's inside the "store"!

Those pandas make me want to buy both iPad and iPhone. They are made by the help of Gizmobies.

Look at those beetles! They are way better than Bottega's. Somebody please kill me now. I want NY!

Skull sunnies. TDF. I prefer to go and spend my money here as a birthday gift rather than to buy, perhaps, another Lady Dior. lol.

And don't miss the remarkable after party.

Besides of uh-oh-ing, you will be surprised because there will be Formichetti himself and his muse, Rick Genest (the zombie guy) selling the stuff.

"I wanted him (Rick) to be shop manager. And I want him to perform in there." - Nicola Formichetti.

PS. Watch this movie! It's about the making of the extraordinary store. Do tell me your reaction when watching this video because I really want to cry. Oh. I'm crying right now.

The Three Princesses of Noritaka Tatehana

2011-08-12T07:17:00.000-07:00

Remember Gaga extreme heels? They are made by a Japanese designer, Noritaka Tatehana.

These 3 are my fav. among his other A/W'10-11 collections.

Did I mention you that you are about to lose your mind when I tell you the price?

Let me just introduce you their names first.

Meet Lady Bell.

She is 8.5inch tall and cost $10,600.

Now, meet Bell's little sister, Lady Rose. 7inch tall. And you need $6,500 to bring it home.

Maybe you can't see Lady Matinee's detail properly, so I back it up with another picture of her.

Matinee is the shortest among her 3 sisters, she's only 5inch tall. I think we can walk properly in this one. However, she cost more than Rose. Believe it or not she costs $7,200.

I wonder when can I wear Tatehana's piece.... You must be wondering, "Gosh, you like everything extreme!" and I will proudly say "Yes, I am!".

Anyhow, if you want to want to take a peek or purchase Tatehana's collection just click this link [here].

The American Vogue's September issue has arrived guys, and yes Kate Moss in Alexander McQueen is on the front cover.

Both Kate Middleton and Kate Moss are the same in name, nationality and even their wedding is on the same year, but they have a different wedding theme. Somehow I prefer Moss' one, since it is more relax and down to earth in some way.

The beautiful bride was came out from her vintage Rolls Royce. She looks very beautiful on the special made wedding dress by Galliano. Too bad he's not coming to her wedding, he must be proud.

3 Moss generations: Peter Moss (father), Kate Moss, Lila Grace (daughter).

She must be very happy to be surrounded by fabulous friends. Take a peek on Moss' guests!

Untamable Formichetti

2011-08-07T13:36:00.000-07:00

Can you imagine when the daring artist of a life time collaborate with the most influential creative forces working in fashion today? Let's just see what he chose for Gaga to wear on Vanity Fair.

That black bodysuit on the right was made by Somarta, the eccentric Japanese fashion label. And for the nine-inch platform that is extremely dangerous to walk with was made by Gaga's fav Japanese shoe maker, Noritaka Tatehana. Actually.. I wish I could wear one someday, but I need to practice it first or it will be an embarrassment of a lifetime.

God.. This is so McQueen. I can't say anything. This is a work of art. Period.

Did you spot the shoes? Isn't it beautiful? Both the dress and shoes are custom made by Armani Prive'.

I say.. Nicola Formichetti is really is the best stylist ever.

How Many Shoes You Own?

2011-08-01T09:19:00.000-07:00

Forget Carrie Bradshaw and Rebecca from Confession of Shopaholic. They are nothing compared with this lady that I want to introduce you to.

Meet Beth Shak, the woman who owns 1,200 pairs of shoes. Wait a minute, did I say 1,200?

This 41 years old professional gambler has a passion in luxe shoes, especially Christian Louboutin.

She even owns 700 pairs of red soles! Moreover, due to her enthusiasm Louboutin, they let her special-order stilettos and email her the pictures of the latest and limited edition collections.

The thing that makes me jealous with her daughter is that Beth is size 7!

Oh well.. I hope I could grow up to be like her, to be a luxe shoes breeder.

Anyhow, how many shoes do you own?

"A shoe tells who you are, it kinda tell a story about you."

-Fergie

PS. Don't forget to watch her on the documentary of the relationship between shoes and women on "God Save my Shoes"

One Tough Celine

2011-07-29T21:46:00.000-07:00

For this post it's kinda late because I took the pictures when I'm on a spring break in Singapore.

I chose to bring my orange Celine bag which I decorated with the Alexander McQueen key chain from my boyfriend.

Maybe I'm a bit too late for arty ring, but finally I found the right colour for an arty.

It is a black arty and I love it so much! But, too bad that it was lost somewhere.

This Celine is pretty tough you know. I wear it like almost everyday to school and of course I put many thick-heavy books plus umbrella (London is always raining), but it still well-structured.

Anyhow, I bring almost all of my shoes back home. My London flat is craving for new shoes.

Daphne and Birkin

2011-07-28T04:50:00.000-07:00

Many people asking me, why you don't you buy something classic?

Blame it to Daphne Guinness. She is the top lady on my muse chart.

The way she sees fashion is like an art, and so does how she presents it.

But, for this post I don't want to discuss about her stunningly gorgeous fashion style.

I want you to see her exotic Vert Foncé 30cm Crocodile Birkin.

See the way she carry that Birkin, is absolutely different than any other girl who carry the same Birkin as hers. That's why she's unforgettable.

"Part of being a conscious human being, is having an intention. And if you put an intention into whatever you do, it's definitely going to be more satisfying in the end." - Daphne Guinness

2011-07-26T10:05:00.000-07:00

Mary Katrantzou, the young Greek designer who based in London, who was famous for her prints and Qianlong Chinese vase inspired look from her S/S'11 collection. And now she bring those looks back again in her F/W'11 collection with a touch of panne-velvet.

These are the other looks that I'm sure you will melt because they are like the reminiscent of the rare preciousness that could belong to the d'art collection.

For the boots, they are the collaboration with Christian Louboutin. Did you spot the irresistible red soles?

Club 27

2011-07-23T11:15:00.000-07:00

The greatest myth of "Club 27" has been proven again by the death of young, talented, eccentric British singer-songwriter, Amy Winehouse. For those of you who don't know Club 27, it is the name for a group of influential rock artist who died in age of 27. Here are some of the names from the list, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, and Brian Jones from the Rolling Stones.

Amy was famous for her drug addiction, but let's take aside those negative things and look at the positive side of hers.

Due to the rise of her popularity, she has influenced so many people, including the famous Karl Lagerfeld.

Karl said, "She is a beautiful, gifted artist. And I very much like her hairdo. I took it as an inspiration. Because, in fact, it was also Brigitte Bardot's hairdo in the late Fifties and Sixties. And now Amy has made it her own style."

Anyhow, she has a soulful voice that always remembered.

[here] is valerie for you from the late Amy Winehouse.

De Soematra

2011-07-20T09:50:00.000-07:00

Last time I had a reunion diner with my high school friends, it's been like a very long time since we all gather together. The place is very-very nice and the food is delicious as well. I recommend you all to come here, De Soematra restaurant in Surabaya, Indonesia.

It's very bad that I got fever at this time and I don't feel really well. At that point I decided to wear my fav REISS shirt with Hermes' Silver-plated Colier de Chien which is quite heavy.

As always I'm wearing my red Hermes watch that given by my mother as my 18th birthday gift. You may look familiar with the girl in the middle, she's featured in my last post. She's Karina from faboosh-baboosh. However, the girl on the right named Karina as well, she's the one who gather us together in this fabulous restaurant.

For the trousers it's Vivienne Westwood's Aladdin trousers. I love this trousers because it's super comfy. And here are two of my best friends, Devina (left) the photographer and Vanessa (right). Did you spot Vanessa's Celine bag? I love the colour, it's a bit grey and brownish, but she told me the certificate said that it's camel.

See how delicious is the food! At the top is the foie gra with scallop on top, and at the bottom is strawberry sorbet inside of an ice.

Have a nice day guys!

Take Me to the Sky

2011-07-13T23:40:00.000-07:00

Maxi skirt..

Wear it with a sky-high heels and you do looks tall yet you get that flowy looks on your skirt. I got this skirt from REISS, it is a UK based fashion brand that I love the most. Yes, it is the brand that was crashed online by tons of people when Kate Middleton wore one of their dress.

Oh, and that white tee it's from REISS as well. The good thing about it is the material for the front is made of 1000% silk; however, for the back panel is made of vicose wool that makes you feel very comfy. Another plus point of this tee is it's can be wear for any occasions (formal, casual, you name it).

In polishing my look, I picked my Bottega Veneta charm Juicy bangle, House of Harlow necklace, and my old-lover, which is Eddi Borgo ring special for Liberty. It is special for Liberty London because it's rose gold; however, the silver one is the original design.

This is me and Karina from faboosh-baboosh. I love how she wear her bandana as a tie.

Go check her out for more details of hers.

and when it comes to my fav. part of the blog post, 'the shoes'. Been wearing this Black Studded Christian Louboutin and it's quite comfy, I have wore it for almost 4 hours standing (not for this shoot). But yeah... You still need to be careful when you wear a sky-high heels. Make sure you try to practice it at home first, otherwise, you'll be shame when you fall down.

Have a good day!

Fable and Mabille

2011-07-12T01:15:00.000-07:00

Fall is always associate with warm colours. Alexis Mabille pour a classic animal fable into his fall'11 couture runway. He creates the illusion of a new furred feathered feelered creatures from the combination of women and animals.

These are my top 4 looks:

At first I feel weird with the blue gloves because they don't match with the other colours. But then I think that those gloves are the element that makes the dress alive.

When I imagine this dress as a top only, I think it's so Burberry. Do you think?

However, if you don't like some or even all of those dresses above there are still many more beautiful dresses from this collection. Go and check it out [here]!

Resurrection

2011-07-10T14:02:00.000-07:00

Hello there!

It's been a quite long time since I blogged my last post. Believe it or not I've been living almost B&W world back then, dating with my business books, changing my fashion bible (Vogue) into Financial Times and even The Economist!

However, life will change now because I'm going to university not in foundation again and I "hope" I could spend some time, at least once a week to post something.

Those of you who is more like express kinda girl, I suggest you to take that Chanel handphone holder. I usually don't like to bring bag when I'm going around, so I put my credit card, ID, and phone together in that case.

The thing about this Chanel Jacket is I bought it with my piggy bank money that I saved and I'm so proud of myself for that. It's from the S/S'11 collection and it's suit for the breezy autumn, freezy winter, and windy spring as well.

But... For this mighty and glittery Louboutin's Rollerball is the present from my mother as some kind of graduation gift. She did help me in choosing it, she told me that it's very me. I'm so blessed to have her as my mother. She knows me so very well.

Well mates, don't forget to keep updated with my blog because I have many things to share with you all. Plus, I need you all to tell me about what makes blog interesting to make mine better. I appreciate all your comment and don't forget to hype my lookbook guys!

Loads of love,

Galliano is the element to build a perfect Dior

2011-03-01T15:37:00.000-08:00

"Dior without Galliano is a pity" - Franca Sozzani

When I was kid, I always dream that I could wear a belle wedding dress made by John Galliano for Dior. Now.. It's just a dream, what can I do is to look at other people's wedding dress that made by him for Dior.

image from http://trendland.net
The whole anti-semitic thing is killing me, I don't believe such sensitive guy is really mean with the condemnation on this repulsive remarks that he done in La Perle, Paris. If it is true, I mean.. look at everyone in this world, no one in this world is a purely angel, people are racist in their own way. What we need is to forgive because he contributed a lot to our world, especially in fashion world.

image from www.vogue.co.uk

Galliano collection for his Central-Saint_Martin collection

He was always amaze us in Dior every single shows. Theatrical..

image from www.style.com

His last collections. 2011 March, 2010 February, do you see the similarities?

For me it is the end of my fashion world (not really, but almost). 11 Feb 2010, the great Alexander McQueen was died. 1 March 2011, my long time favourite theatrical man was fired from House of Dior.

What a bloody life..

PS: and both of them were Saint Martin graduated, British fashion designer, and awarded for CBE by the majesty Queen Elizabeth.

image from www.style.com

He always care about every single detail of his shows. Even his appearance also a part of the shows.

image from www.style.com

He dressed Lady Diana for MET, and awarded so many awards for his contribution.

In 2001, on Queen's birthday honours, he was awarded the CBE (Commander of the Order of the British Empire)

Not only awarded RDI (Royal Designer for Industry), he was awarded for British Fashion Awards in 1987, 1994, 1995, and 1997. Similarly, in 2009 Sakorzy admitted him to French Legion of Honour.

Now, what remains for Dior A/W 2011 are the last pieces of works from Galliano that dedicated his life for Dior for so long time. I hope there will be someone who can replace him, but I surely think that no one does Dior like John Carlos Antonio Galliano.

image from www.style.com

For those of you who have some of his collections in Dior, keep them in your wardrobe, take care of them, and let your children look at the greatest work of art that fitted in woman's body by woman's man.

"I don't love dolls. I love women. I love their bodies." - Galliano

After all,

The proof of the pudding is in the eating.

so try to answer the last question remains,

"Will fashion world forgive him?"

I'll never put away these things from my wardrobe

Love,

Evelyn Halim

Hermès Prevent The 'Puppet-ing" By LVMH

2010-12-02T17:17:00.000-08:00

Kelly and Birkin...

Kelly 35cm Flat Bag Gold colour in swift leather and silver hardware & Birkin 35cm Rose Bubble Gum colour in silver hardware

Both are two sisters that keeping its 173-years old maker stay survive in their 73.4% stake. However, they were threaten by the large multinational LVMH whose hold 17.1% of the capital, which make them have two third of the free float.

Bernard Arnault, CEO of LVMH

The man behind this giant company has generates 6,302 million euros in 2009 and it's only the revenue from fashion & leather goods only. It makes them easier to increase their shares to 20%, which means they will be able to consolidate the holding in its account; therefore, their aim in becoming the long-term shareholder of Hermès comes true.

Bugatti Veyron custom made by Hermès

Hermès has chosen BNP Paribas and Bank of America Merrill Lynch to prevent their nightmare. What they want is to keep selling their shares without Mr. Arnault (CEO of LVMH) increasing his stake.

It seems that Hermès family still have Birkin's key, we'll see what's happen next.

A Friendship Story Behind the Successful Christian Dior.

2010-11-24T16:20:00.000-08:00

"To be inspired by Dior is to be inspired by Rene Gruau.

His sketches capture the silhouette and spirit of Dior and a new era of fashion and femininity. His illustrations are timeless, ever youthful, ever faithful to the moment he saw; they capture the energy, the sophistication and daring of Dior, and equally are a token of an enduring friendship."

- John Galliano, 'The First Century of Rene Gruau' -

Dior Illustration Exhibition by Rene Gruau at Somerset House, the home for everything fashion.

21st of October, the day when Manolo Blahnik came back to London for his new book signing titled, "Manolo's New Shoes". This is the second time I meet Manolo personally. I love this man!

Zebra: "Come on Manolo, do it fast."

Manolo: "I'm working on it!!"

By the way, did I tell you before that he is so kind. Firstly, he suppose to go out at 8pm but he stayed late, he said its not fair for the other people who were freezing outside.

He also said sorry to me for waiting about more than a hour. Plus...

Manolo: "Your name is Evelyn? Beautiful name. (relaxin his hand) Sorry, my hand got cramp, because there're so many book to sign."

The book basically is about his sketches, but I love it.

The book is ready to be signed!

I'm wearing his scarf for Liberty that I bought when I first meet him at FNO.

Queue ladies..

2 books signed with different names, one is for me and the other one is for Vanessa

Special sketches for Liberty, which also signed by Manolo for me.

Shoe dolls.

When I saw those boots, I'm thinking of a talking shoes, maybe because of their position.

What do you think?

Red satin heels with his signature touch of swarovski above reminds me of Cinderella.

The abandon shoes? No! They're just the unlucky shoes who got hit by people's shopping bag.

Special for Liberty products.

For the Londoners, if you can't make it yesterday, there will be another book signing event on 2nd of December this year. Just don't forget to come and make a big smile in front of the camera because you will be standing next to the famous Manolo Blahnik.

London Fashion Weekend the 23rd SEPT Edition

2010-09-25T17:07:00.000-07:00

There're so much things to say though now I'm living in the city of fashion and finally I got my dongle to use the internet (sorry for the late update). In this city all words in your fashion dictionary are everywhere, from the fashion do to fashion disaster. However, a day after my 18th birthday I went to LONDON FASHION WEEKEND wearing my new "NICHOLAS KIRKWOOD special for RODARTE" glow in the dark heels from my daddy.

I came here with my beautiful mom who wore her new DIOR "Phyton bag that was encrusted with 18 carat gold on it" which is made only 5 pieces in the world, and the brand new Alexander McQueen boots.

This event was sponsored by so many fabulous companies that I love, especially because they bloom the seeds of fashion inside the Londoners. They are Vodafone, Kellogs, ELLE, Elizabeth Arden, Juicy Couture, and so many more.

Because I bought the VIP ticket, I could come into the tent and even enter to Elizabeth Arden master class. It was interesting how the guru teach us how to do our eyes and all of us there got a tester of the products!

There are 3 designers here and here are some of their collections, bon appetite!

Sitting in the 2nd row, too bad I'm late for the queue, I could have sit in the 1st row.

Spotted! Shoes from the catwalk. Stilettonizer always spotted shoes, shoes is woman's fav.

NOMAD:

Nomad's ethnic theme is similar to what we see in Paris' John Galliano to Jean-Paul Gaultier shows. Skirt over skirt, the long-forgotten scarf, shearling jacket, and mash-up of both texture and patterns.

However, KRAMER VS KRAMER, mixes a concentrated palette of beige, camel, browns, and soft golds. He certainly following Celine's Phoebe Philo philosophy in this 2010.

In the other case, Singapore-born designer based in London whom being famous for dressed A-list stars, including Cheryl and Kyle Cole, Lady Gaga, Erin O'Connor, and Florence Welch still playing with his signature draping and a touch of dramatic accent from his Gaga influence.

Finally here comes BODY AMR whom called as "one of the best kept secrets of Fashion Insiders" by VOGUE magazine.

Amr describe his style as "Sleek, sexy, modern classics, bold and strong. Solid colours for a sharp-witted woman who embraces both her masculine and feminine sides and loves to laugh. Her style is timeess because it's all about attitude rather than current trends."

Due to the VIP ticket hat I bought, I could come to the tent before the show (normal ticket price enter to the tent after the show). The tent was like a beautiful walk-in-closet. There are so many beautiful accessories from well-known brands that we all have heard. Here are some..

First I spotted this space full of pastel color that is very "lady-like". It's ALISON VAN DER LANDE fashionistas!

The lilac bag above is my fav one, and the beautiful store lady told me that that bag has a history. It was specially made for a prestigious horse racing. The bag is so beautiful and perfect for a lady.

Mom trying CLARA FRANCIS, which are London handmade accessories.

Trying my beloved hat maker, PHILIP TREACY. He's a truly hat master, he reminds me of Madamoiselle Chanel.

Shoes are Never Enough

2010-09-01T09:48:00.000-07:00

Its my BFF's birthday and I surprised her with a birthday cake, but not the ordinary cake, a "fab" one of course. Then I remembered a year ago she was drooling for a Chrisitian Louboutin's "Bloody Mary" and thats where the idea came from! I surprised her with this beautiful cake...

Inside the Louboutin's box...

For the shoes, it made of sugar icing but it does looks real!

I wish I could wear this red soles.. I can't resist the sexiness of this shoe!

She is the reason why I'm staying in Indonesia until the end of August.
I do hope she love the surprise.. I will miss her when I go to London.

Credits to my beloved boyfriend, Marcel <3

Loads of love,
