Patterned

Spring is coming.
Can you feel the itch for a new wardrobe?
I certainly do!

And one of my favourite trends for this spring is printed blouses.
I can't get enough of these cute patterns - I could seriously do 3 posts on this!

Here are my top picks.

From Zara - Flower Print


From ASOS - Panther Print


From ASOS - Floral Print


From ASOS - Bug Print


From Rodarte for Opening Ceremony (available on Shopbop) - Children mixed with Still Life Print (kind of spooky but cool)


From M by Missoni (available on Shopbop) - Circle Print



From Equipment, maker of the BEST blouses ever (available on Shopbop) - Starry Night Print


Fron A. L. C. (available on Shopbop) - Dripping Print



And finally from Zara - Cheetah Print
I got my hands on this one last weekend! Love it!

Oscars 2012 - Red Carpet Roundup!

Did you watch the Oscars last night?

Who do you think rocked the red carpet the most?
So many great looks to choose from and so many misses...
JLo's wardrobe malfunction!
Angelina Jolie's hard posing!
And this absolute ATROCITY. My eyes are still hurting.

Here are Tinseltown's big night best looks.
I'm totally feeling the white/ivory/sparkling trend as you can see.



Gwyneth Paltrow
No one came even close to GOOP last night.
She stole the show.
This Tom Ford number is poised to go down in history as one of her best looks ever. The cape! The cuff! The hair! She looked absolutely fantastic.



Octavia Spencer
Take note Melissa McCarthy. This is how plus-size girls should dress. Octavia picked a total winner in this sparkling Tadashi Shoji number that was custom-made for her. Well done.



Michelle Williams
This exquisite Louis Vuitton gown is in line with Michelle's usual red carpet style, yet it's unexpected. Its coral hue stands out from the crowd and its soft, cascading peplum waist, adorned with a sparkling bow, is a nice change from the mermaid dresses we're accustomed to see at formal events. Michelle might not have won the Academy Award this year but she gets a gold star in our book for this look.



Emma Stone
I know that Nicole Kidman pretty much wore this same dress a couple years ago, but I just love how the raspberry hue pops on Emma. I also really like the ombré effect at the botton of the dress. The big bow is the cherry on top of this playful and age-appropriate Giambattista Batali look.



Milla Jovovich
Milla Jovovich channelled old Hollywood glamour in this beautiful Elie Saab Haute Couture Gown. You can't go wrong with a modern-twist on a classic.

Are you ready to pig out?

It's Super Bowl Sunday yayayayay!

Although we don't really follow football, we'd never miss an opportunity to get together with friends and enjoy a night of nachos, beer and wings in good company!

So no need to show up at your Superbowl party like you've just got out of the gym or wearing your favourite sweatshirt. Fashion never takes a day off and we've put together the perfect casual party outfit. Note how the colour palette is appropriate for Patriots and Giants fans alike.

We've also included a big a** ring for you to flaunt (unless you have access to your very own championship ring).

Prescription glasses are to ensure you don't miss out on any of the plays (unlike those referees!).

P.S. Go Giants!!

Golden Globes 2012: Our favorite looks

Let's not discuss the winners because we only care about the fashion anyway!
Here are last night's winning looks according to us.

Our Top Five



Claire Danes in Calvin Klein
My favourite look of the night.
It's chic, structured and elegant. Black and white done right.



Nicole Kidman in Versace.
Another red carpet win for the ever-daring Australian. The studded dress fit her statuesque body like a glove and give her an amazing hourglass figure. Check out the detailing in the close-ups - this gown is a true work of art.


Evan Rachel Wood in Gucci Premiere.
Feathers! Sequins! See-through fabric! There's so much going on but somehow she manages to make it work. The rising screen star is also emerging as a fashion reference on the red carpet. We'll keep an eye on her until the Oscars.


Emma Stone in Lanvin.
Kudos for putting an original touch on the belted waist. The eagle adds a fun spin on the trend that everyone was wearing (see Helen Mirren, Laura Dern, Kate Winslet, Jessica Chastain etc, etc, etc.) Bonus points for the lovely jewel tone of the dress and the superb makeup.


Salma Hayek in Gucci.
Dazzling in an art deco bustier dress reminiscent of the disco era. I also like that she's not over ombré hair yet... I'm not either.

Honorary Mentions


Sofia Vergara in Vera Wang
Stands out in a classic strapeless gown. If you're looking for a traditional gala look, that's the way to do it.


Tilda Swinton in Haider Ackermann
In a class of her own. She looks otherworldy and that's a good thing because no one else on Earth could pull this off. The icy blue hue works perfectly with her complexion. Add her awesomely rock n' roll hair and you have the final touch to this modern and edgy look.

Meet me in Nantucket

While browsing the web for home decorating inspiration, I stumbled on this rug that speaks to my affection for crustacean-style... and all lobster-related things in particular.
