Weekend Agenda

Friday, February 4th, 2011

I’m working this Saturday so I’m taking it really easy today and mapping out plans (half of which is fantasy) and half of which I will actually do on my day off on Sunday. Bike ride on the beach and eating popsicles, plus running into hot surfer boys. What about you?

One word: Hot!

Such a beautiful and relaxing place to eat and drink, isn’t it? 

Relaxed and chic look from a pretty store called Emerson Made.

Always on my must-eat list: Popsicles.

I always seemed to feature someone riding a bike on my weekend post but I think it’s such a fun activity, especially if you do it with your friend or a sweetheart. I love this beautiful shot from Olivia Graham.

The model’s name is Gwen Loos. I’m not sure how I can describe this hairstyle..would you say they’re braids? It’s so pretty!

I bought this sheer sleeveless top from Need Supply last night. So versatile! (Needsupply $42.00)

Not crazy about the shoes but I’m in LOVE with this dress! (Alina Baikova for Vogue Australia March 2011 by Nicole Bentley)

I can’t help it! It’s too pretty not to post it 🙂

Have a relaxing weekend! xoxoxoxoxoxoo

Favorite New Faces of 2011

Tuesday, February 1st, 2011

Before we know it, fashion week will be here in a second…and we’ll be seeing plenty of newcomers and old favorites on the runways. Here are my favorite fresh faces of 2011! Who are your picks?

Ford SuperModel of the world 2011 winner 17 year old Filipina beauty Danica Magpantay! Gorgeous!

Pascal Bonvie from the Netherlands (I LOVE MODELS managment). I can already see him being in high demand by all the blue chip clients.

Pure natural beauty. Lucy Evans from Bristol, UK. Hyacinthe De Geyer D’orth from France. I don’t think I’ll be able to pronounce his name correctly but this boy is major! He’s 19 years old and currently obssessed with cocktails and playing chess. Charming!

Lynn Amelie from Germany. This 15 year old stunner has already appeared as an exclusive on S/S11 Prada runway and big things are ahead of her!

Slava Deryabin from Ukraine.

When I first came across this boy, I was a little taken aback. His facial features are just very pretty, don’t you think? Doesn’t he make a much better Edward Cullen though? I love that he looks straight out of a fairy tale book , like from another era. The words that came to my mind are “Romantic Prince”. What about you?

More Than Just Underwear

Thursday, January 27th, 2011

Typing that blog title makes me laugh but have you guys ever bought clothes from Victoria’s Secret? I usually buy lotion, pajamas or lingerie from their store but not their clothes. But I’ve been loving some of their styling and dresses lately. Here are my picks:

I love the slight ruffles on the bustier, so sweet and cute. It would be a perfect little summer cocktail dress. (Ruffle Corset Dress $88.00)

I love the denim and animal print body-con skirt combination! Something I would wear instantly. (Animal Print Denim Skirt $49.50)

Love this cozy sweater! (Diamond Stich Boatneck Sweater $48.00)

So pretty! High-neck Crochet Sweater Dress $68.00

Red is major for spring! (VS Kiss Capri in red $49.50)

Do you like their style of clothes or do you prefer buying just underwear from them? xxoxoxooxxoo
