A Royal Goddess

I woke up early to watch the Royal Wedding this morning. I was extremely excited and impatient as I really wanted to see Kate Middleton's (now referred to as Catherine) wedding dress. When Catherine stepped out, I was in awe; her dress was GORGEOUS, and it was from none other than one of my favourite designers, Alexander McQueen!

Mary Katrantzou S/S '11 RTW

A relatively new and unknown designer in my books, Mary Katrantzou is definitely one not to miss. My SA Rita at The Room at The Bay took me over to see the new collection, and immediately I was speechless. How come I did not know of this designer beforehand? As one of the salespeople wrapped up one of Katrantzou's skirts, I couldn't help but fall in love with the immaculate beading and floral detailing that the designer has put into it. The skirt on the pic above was the skirt that I saw that day. I could not take my eyes off it!

Sexy Things: Proenza Schouler's PS1 Continental Wallet

As of today, Proenza Schouler introduced a new wallet to their wildly popular PS1 line-the continental wallet. What makes it different from the first PS1 wallet is that this one has card slots and a coin compartment. I'm really loving the wallet in midnight!

VAWK F/W 2011 @ LG Fashion Week

 McQ jacket, T by Alexander Wang t-shirt, Blank NYC skinny jeans, Barbara Bui Python booties, Alexander McQueen skull demanta leather clutch

Since this was my first time attending LG Fashion Week (I know, hard to believe!), I decided to watch one show to test out the waters. Which designer did I pick? VAWK by Sunny Fong, of course. Why did I pick VAWK? I picked VAWK since I loved the cropped leather jacket that I saw at The Room @ The Bay, and I admired Sunny Fong for being such a successful designer after winning Project Runway Canada season two. I just knew I had to see his show and meet him!
