9:23 PM
The various Chanel perfume commercials have a certain style by which I remain every so fascinated. What inspired me to write about this is a shortened version of the below commercial for Chanel no.5.  Despite the fact that I consider myself more of a 'Madmoiselle' person- as it...

Is it just me, or have I really been seeing a lot of this: ? Throughout the Fashion world, this moustache is cropping up in a lot of places. Designs which incorporate this symbolic piece of facial hair (which admittedly doesn't sound very 'chic') vary in a multitue...

Fashionable Camera Bags

7:27 PM
One of my latest tech-related aquisitions is my beloved SLR. I bought a Nikon (Body Only) and a 50mm lens with an f/1.8. And I'm in love. What I wasn't in love with, though, was the plain, black camera bag my SLR inherited from my previous camera. A...

Details

9:21 PM
It's the attention to details that makes something ordinary, extraordinary. I'm particularly fond of design which respects detail. In everything I do, I'm kind of this big perfectionist, despite my clumsy tendencies to fall about and stumble into things. A good design is great, but a good design...

What closet item I be loving now?

10:54 AM
Oversized shirts and knits! :) Even though personally, I think that shirts and blouses are really pretty and I'm completely in love with them, it *is* getting cold. So I have to say that right now, the ideal is going for one of those chunky, oversized knits. ZARA have...

from here I started University recently, and unsurprisingly enough, I switched to Architecture. I really think that my first few lectures in Engineering made me realize how much I love art, design and fashion. I do think I'm a very visual person, and I really think about what...

Fashion is art.

Feathers, Texture and a touch of Gold. Brilliant. I find this really beautiful because it has remarkable semblance to an expertly done piece of art . Every element in this dress is balanced out with the incorporation of an opposite- details which compensate, so to speak. There is...

But I'm a creep. I'm a weirdo.

11:45 AM
I have two new (new to be uploaded, let's put it this way) works of art. Now, they could do with more retouching and nitpicking... but I could go on doing that for ages, years, millenia- if I actually lived that long. This is a work I did...

I'm a big fan of colour. Just in case you couldn't tell. This is a sketch I did a while ago and had completely forgotten. It was inspired from a Matthew Williamson Design Blair Waldorf was wearing in an episode of Gossip Girl. ...
