Its like the collaboration of all collaborations . Lanvin x H&M is like a dream came true . In the video interview , Alber Elbaz says that this isnt about dressing for less, its about H&M getting into luxury. Every girl wants to wear a Lanvin dress , and if I was in anywhere in London , I'd buy something from this collection in a heartbeat ( even though I don't exactly can afford it,iI'll find a

Even though it was always too pricey for me, I really liked most of the pieces she did for Topshop. It was one of my favourite model/celebrity collaborations by far and I thought Kate really understood what her fans liked. Her pieces were always so vintage-y and unique and impeccably cool at

Spent last Friday and Saturday in Malacca to celebrate Nina's 18th birthday . It was supposed to be a surprise for her and Syahmi played his part well but I figured it would be complicated so I told her on Thursday that I was coming. I think she's still surprised. Im not too sure. But it was a good trip , and spontaneous! Mummy and I spent ages roaming around Malacca town looking for a hotel !

Going to ChicPOP is equivalent to or perhaps even more significant then say..going on a date . First you have to make sure you look your awesomest (no kids,Awesomest is not a proper word. Dont use it in your essays and blame my blog for your fat Cs) . Put on your best dress , do your make up flawlessly and make sure your hair isn't frizzy. This means no wearing teeshirt and jeans because then

And I think the colours are simply gorgeous.Betsey JohnsonIf you're a leather loving rock chick with a penchant for studs, you'll probably scoff at her collection . But I enjoyed it . The frou-frou skirts and the

Dolce and GabbanaBrilliant use of white lace. I especially love the dress in the last photo , there's just something so sexy and at the same time , so virginal about the look. Not to mention a cast of awesome models : Freja , Anna S. and Edita! Anna SuiMost of my favourite looks from this collection is on Lindsey! :D What I love most about this collection is how it captures the essence of summer
