New Look spring/summer 2012

I want my look to be all New Look's spring and summer collection. Seriously you can't go wrong with these edgy prints, asymmetrical hemlines, sexy cutouts...*sigh* I'm just so happy :) hahaha

I think my favorite is the little crop top with the maxi skirt...although they're basically all my favorites...let me know which look you're into.

If you could go anywhere in the world...time and money is not an issue...where would you go? and why?

personally I choose China, I love the culture, I'm interested in the history, I feel like asian cultures are so polite and kind so I really like their attitude. I love any type of asian food mmmmm yummy spring rolls and their soups...i can't pronounce any of the names...but i'm not in it for the name...all that matters is my tummy feels loved hahaha and of course i would just love to go shopping there, they have such cute things!

of course they're mine ;)

Hi my beautiful friends :)

I hope everyone is having a snazzy day...that's right snazzy *.* don't settle for less :)

I really love the posters (face charts) that M.A.C had for New York fashion week and London fashion week (that will be my next post).  So I thought I'd share and try it out for myself *.* The eye looks are so intense, not for the weak at heart.  To be honest I love the way it looks in pictures but in real life it feels like there's a centipede under your eye with those falsies hahaha

aaaa what girls do for fashion and beauty! :)

actually I'm interested in knowing what's the craziest thing you've ever done in the name of fashion or beauty?

I hope someone has a good one!

on top...topshop that is

Hi my beautiful friends :)
A glimpse of Mary Katrantzou’s capsule collection for Topshop. The nine-piece range features all the London-based designer's trademarks – think busy floral prints, splashes of color and avant garde structured items. Mary’s line is inspired by English country gardens, Asian inspired florals and ornaments, to name just three. The collection hits stores nationwide and the web on 17th February.

i  like the flower print leggings, let me know what you think of the line
