Remember: Alexander Mcqueen

The AMAZING Alexander Mcqueen will never be forgotten in the fashion world. He was the 4th time winner of the British Designer of the Year award of the British Fashion Awards today. Most importantly, he won the most Outstanding Achievement in Fashion Design this year which he deserved ever so much. He is one of my most favourite designers and when we spot a high street shop releasing collections similar to that of Alexander Mcqueen's, we will know where they got their inspiration from. Long live McQueen!

Ugg-ly?

I cannot see sense in why anyone would think Ugg boots are fashionable in any aspect. By all means, they are extremely comfortable and slipping into them makes it all that cosy, but to see them as something that would make a statement is like fashion global warming. Like how Crocs(really comfortable but weird looking slippers) were in trend a few years back.

I own a pair of Ugg boots but like these celebrities below, I only wear them casually with no intention of thinking its trendy.


I feel like its wearing your bedroom slippers and calling it a fashion statement, although I can actually see that happening, now that is what I call fashion global warming people. I know we will get out of this.

Like I said, Don't get me wrong, they are the most comfortable pair of boots I own but I will never conform and say that I am being fashionable by wearing them.

Robert Pattinson is on the same wavelength as me as he does not like girls who wear Ugg/Ugg inspired boots and wonders in what sense are they even fashionable.

Revival: Russian-esque Fur Hats

Winter is nearing and the fashionistas are forecasting, so what's hot(in the context of cold;p) now?

RUSSIAN STYLE FUR HATS- The Ushanka!

Lily Allen all warm in 2009

They're actually called Ushanka's which is an easier way to address this hat to be honest but apparently it's not commonly used in the mainstream fashion world, so we shall conform to that for this post.

I've noticed how style is being more comfort friendly these days, which is good because there is no point being pretentious especially when we were faced with one of the harshest winters in England. The answer to a comfy stylish hat is the traditional Russian fur hat, with the actual designer ones that consists of Mink fur which we have no qualms about, just that faux fur is just as comfortable for us.

A lot of high street stores are home to these faux fur Russian inspired hats after predicting this come back.

It's great that being reasonable is slowly infusing itself with style because these hats keep you warm and cosy while you make a statement, now that is really all you need while waiting for a bus out in the cold.

Check out the President of Argentina rocking this look after receiving the hat as a gift from the President of Russia!

Get your hands on them & prepare yourself for winter!

Hairy Tales: Pixie Cut

British Fashion IconHermione GrangerEmma Watson does the Halle Berry with her epic hair transformation.

She went from this(well sort of)...

To this...

Do we love it?YES. She is able to own this look without looking like a boy and not many people can. A lot of people, especially from the media made a huge fuss about this, dissing her for this apparent drastic move but this pretty face would have obviously thought this through thoroughly before going for the chop but hey, it suits her. She still holds Britain's top 50 most beautiful females.

Hermione Granger rocks her new look and will keep it that way for awhile

Would you ever take the same risk as her?

Revival: Hareeeeeeemba

Harem Trousers

Look what the fashion waves brought back to shore- Harem Trousers!I must admit I was never a fan before, especially the baggy ones that only makes you look more like a bag lady with the need to air her nether regions, I am however, very into the legit harem trousers.

I do love the kind that Sienna Miller is wearing in the picture above because it is just so easy to wear and you can wear with almost any top while making a statement. I personally wear it with a very dressy top when I go out clubbing or a normal tank when I'm out at the groceries or a graphic tee when I'm out and about elsewhere where the public eye is opened wider. It is comfortable and reasonable making it oh so trendy.

I also love how it makes me seem like Princess Jasmine, my fictional idol, but thats a different story ;p

GET A PAIR(pun intended)

Heaven Scent Perfume: D&G Number 3 L'IMPERATRICE

D&G 3 L'IMPERATRICE


I have decided that this will be my signature lifelong scent. If I ever become a famous person, even if I was a famous hobo, I want to endorse this scent. I mean, look at Chanel No.5(wow this sounds like im discussing my next door apartment), its been around without any form of discontinuation for more than 90 years and this elixir holds that potential, in fact, I dare say, it beats Chanel No.5 hands down. Don't get me wrong, I love Chanel No.5 but there has just been too many similar versions of this perfume that its appeal to me is fading off. I only feature perfumes that I actually use in this blog and I tend to stick to one perfume for a long period of time because I get used to smelling that way. I am sure I am not the only who does this, especially when people have already been accustomed to this scent as part of me. Sometimes I get asked what I have on and I just never let this secret out because I am selfish and just don't want others to know how I smell so divine.

Obviously, you can't actually smell this beauty over this blog post but D&G No.3 is:

1)What goddesses like Aphrodite smells like.

2) A fruity combination scent of Apples, Peaches and Watermelon

3)Long lasting

4)Mellow

5)Does not give out a strong whiff of ethanol

6)Like no other

The other perfumes from this range smell good too but they also smell average and a similar version can be found easily from the next counter. L'Imperatrice(what a mouthful) which means Empress, stands out like, well, an empress!

Now you have to make a trip down to Debenhams or wherever you get your perfume from to test this out. I am known to exaggerate but this does not require any and if you're lucky enough to read this, you will probably stick to this perfume for life!
