New BFF's

I love online sales, specially when concerning brands I don't have around here (sigh). Waiting for them to arrive home, GAAHHH *.*

Jeffrey Campbell - The Ribz Wedges (I LOVE JCampbell shoes *drools*)

Wildfox - The Big Love Oversize V-Neck (it's a cute brand but a bit overrated)

Unif - The Heavy Meowtal Dress (j'adore the cat)

All from: Karmaloop.com

Dior F/W 2011/2012

All this fuss around Galliano but what about the garments?
He is a genius that's for sure and the video I saw (as most of you) about the nazi comments he made, that was just sad. However you can't deny his amazing artistic capacity!

I love everything about it... You'll be missed.

Campaign - MANGO

I know this is not really fresh news but I've been strolling around LX and I've been falling in love with all the garments I see on this campaign. I want everything even the sunglasses!
I'm not a big fan of Scarlett (her gown on the Oscars, geesh...) but I gott'admit she looks pretty god!

Andrej Pejic

Andrej for Galliano Spring 2011 Menswear

Andrej for Gaultier 2011/12 F/W

Continuing on the line of the outkasts (although Andrej is not rly an outkast) I'm posting today about this amazing "gender bender". Andrej Pejic is known for his glorious posture, perfect features and his dominance on the catwalk. He was born male but most definetly resembles a she but for now he says he is comfortable with himself.

Andrej for JP Gaultier as the "bride"

Comparing Andrej with Rihanna (Grammys Ceremony), who looks best? There you go.

I love androgony...

Rick Genest

Everybody knows that he is the "model of choice" (per say) of Mugler. I love it. If I had a brand and did catwalks all my models would be the outcasts ou society for sure so I can relate with this bizarre aspect of Mugler.
This time Genest is also on the newest clip of Lady Gaga. Genest and Gaga participated on the runway for Mugler in the Paris Fashion Week F/W 2011/12. The collection is called "Anathomy of Change" and it is awesome!

H&M Spring Nails

This pack of varnishes is a must have. No more words, just gorgeous colours ...

Support our designers!

Fátima Lopes is, in my opinion, the best designer we have around here (in Portugal).
For the Paris Fashion Week F/W 2011/12, Fátima Lopes gave us a sense of 60's as she said and a bit of the positive side of the current crisis (also her "words").
I love the shoes btw... And the FUR the F U R ;) *happytear*

Oscars - My Favourite Dress

This is my favourite dress. Givenchy rules but Cate Blanchett rules even more for daring to wear this unique dress. Props.

Hiatus

Hi there. We're making some changes (as you might have noticed) hang on there okay?

Dec 2010 VOGUE

We love Vogue. How much? THIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS much! However, the Portuguese Vogue is, let's say, sad. Therefore we buy other Vogues, although they are expensive, they're worth it :)

These are some Vogue covers from around the world, I wonder if they are still thinking about Vogue Africa... That would be great for them, I know I know, people associate fashion with something expensive or futile ( s a d ) so to create one in Africa it might sound of bad taste but the truth is that could most definitely improve the life of many: people who write, models still out there (I mean African models are drop dead gorgeous) etc.

Let's see, oh and btw Merry Xmas :D or even Feliz Natal!

Watch out Gaga, Rihanna is coming for you!

You know what? I totally love red hair, can't pull it off but yeah I do. And Rihanna? I gotta' say "Who's that Chick"? What a transformation, from girl next door to trendsetter! Congrats Rihanna totally deserve it :) You're an icon for fashionistas/fashion victims and you made me question Lady Gaga, why? Because you can pull off a really cool style without going overboard! "Loves it"!
