we're one day away from the new year. i want to give all of you 1 BIG THANK YOU for all of your support this year. i'm really fortunate to get the comments i do. they show that you really appreciate what i write and that you appreciate my sense of style. that's such a huge compliment! every time i get a long, well thought out comment i feel a huge burst of happiness and warmth inside. it sounds weird, but that's what happens! nice comments just make me so happy because i put my all into this blog. for me, this is such a huge release. sometimes thinking of new ways to update, or updating at all seems like a daunting task, but most of the time i can't wait to type up a new entry for all of you. i just want to share all of what i know (which isn't much), and all of my feelings and thoughts on fashion and the world with people who are willing to read it. and i'm so happy that i've found people who actually want to read what about my various obsessions and likes. thank you, thank you, thank you so much.

and one last thing...which is totally unrelated to my thank you. ROIWORLD.COM IS COMING BACK BIGGER AND BETTER IN JANUARY 2009. i love roiworld. it's a korean game and dress-up game site. i refuse to believe that dress-up games are only for little girls. i love to put together awesome outfits on cute online dolls. it gives me inspiration for outfits and such. the graphics on that site are really high quality and they have a huge range of dress-up games. in some of them you can dress up the doll, or you can make her over and dress her up, or you can dress up couples and such. and in january 2009 it's going to be even better! so there's a reason to look forward to the new year. :)

i hope you all have a great night tonight. please be safe! thanks for making 2008 a good year for fashion-2010-2011.

Glove Love

I have always been into gloves. Since childhood, I have always had freezing cold hands and feet. This "problem" is known for anyone who has a poor blood circulation... getting more to the point... Back home, whenever I shook hands with someone I knew 9 times out of 10 a comment would be made about the coldness of my hands!!!
I loved when I first moved to London, it was around September, getting a little chill and my hands were frozen, sooner than never I heard the saying " Cold hands, warm heart". I liked it, I was extremely surprised to hear a positive comment about my hands. Yes, they were cold but so what. I finally felt understood by people. Smiles.
Nevertheless, when winter comes, oh goodness, it feels like my poor little fingers are about to suffer from frostbite(!!!)LOL
So gloves are essential and they must be fabulous too! I shall never be seen wearing anything but leather, all types, but I am not so keen on suede as it does not last very long (my opinion) the weather can be very harsh on them.

A girlfriend of mine has the most beautiful pairs I have seen!!!! I almost had a heart attack when I saw her with an amazing fingerless pair, in python and leather, sooooo chick rock...

Ohhh to die for...
They are from Nina Peter .
Please take a look on her website,www.ninapeter.com , as you can also buy online if you feel like splurging this New Year.
They are also available at Harvey Nichols!
So hurry...In my opinion they are definitely a must have... I would better start saving up as from now!

we're two days away from the new year! wootie woot! anyway, today i'm going to feature two awesome fashion blogs. since i started reading them i've become officially addicted, and i want to share the love!

TWO ADDICTION INDUCING BLOGS:

www.redcarpet-fashionawards.com

this site is amazing. it tracks what celebrities wear, when they wear it, and how many times they wear it. and if celebrities ever wear the same thing the readers get to vote on who looks best! and every week there is a best dressed celeb of the week, and readers get to vote for their fave and sometimes the blog owner (fashion critic) disagrees and chooses her own best dressed. since it's the end of the year she's been rounding up all the best fashions of the year. make sure to head on over to her blog after reading mine! :)

www.knighttcat.blogspot.com

i've only recently found this blog. i've been reading it for a few weeks but i am definitely hooked. i love the blogger's sense of style and all of the quirky items that she features. she puts together a lot of alexander wang inspired grungey outfits and she is enamored with the olsens. she has a great sense of humor and updates daily.

pay them a visit and told them zoe from fashion-2010-2011 sent you! ( bet you didn't know my name was zoe :] )

IMAGE HEAVY! wait for it to load...

we are now 3 days away from 2009! and because of that i am featuring 3 amazing editorials. i have several editorials that are my favorites and i am now adding these three, that i'm featuring in my entry, to my favorites list. all of the editorials have different feels, clothes, lighting and fashion vibes--but ALL three of these editorials are superb. the models really work it, and show why they deserve the titles of high fashion models. tell me what you think! and thanks to everyone who has been reading these daily posts and commenting on them. :)
? me

p.s. i have featured the entire editorial of each selection for your viewing pleasure.

Magazine: Harper's Bazaar China September 2008
Title: Olympic Glory
Model: Du Juan, Emma Pei
Photographer: Chen Zhun

the summer 2008 olympics in beijing were astounding. i loved everything from the opening ceremony, the swimming races, the diving competitions, the gymnastics displays, track and field races, and the closing ceremony. everything seemed to go perfectly, and every detail of the event was put together with so much thought and innovation. this editorial from the september 2008 edition of china's harper's bazaar takes inspiration from the 2008 summer olympic games, and does as good a job, if not better or capturing the history and various other achievements of china. the cover of the september 2008 edition is so cute! all three models look so beautiful, and i loved how they formed the configuration of the olympic rings with their hair. i also appreciate how this editorial is able to convey grace, ambition, anger, defeat, and triumph using not only a fantastic and almost surreal backdrop, but great model casting, great expressions on the models, good makeup/hair and clothing styling. the models really showed what they can do in this editorial. this is a testimonial to how good asian models are. there need to be more of them on the runway (as i've said time and time again...). this is so beautiful and perfect. it is now one of my favorite editorials of ALL TIME. yes, that means now and forever.

Magazine: Num�ro December 2008
Title: Magie Noire
Model: Jessica Stam
Photographer: Miguel Reveriego

when i first saw jessica stam in an editorial i fell in love with her. she's such a doll! and her eyes are so captivating. the lighting in this editorial shows off her bone structure and i love the dark makeup and crazy hair. she carries it so well (another testament to her beauty). here the clothes don't take center stage; they add to the darkness of the editorial and amplify her looks. this makes me want to wear black 24/7.

Ad Campaign: Biotherm
Season: spring summer 09
Model: Sasha Pivovarova
Photographer: ?

this isn't an editorial out of a fashion magazine, it's an ad campagin for the beauty brand biotherm for spring/summer 2009. even though it's not technically an editoial, i just had to showcase this lovely series of pictures. it's bright, fresh and beautiful. lots of times when i see sasha pivovarova in editorials she scares me. she just looks scary. but here she looks purely angelic and beautiful. her complexion, hair color, and eyes, come together to create a great image for biotherm. i don't even care if any of this was photoshopped because it just looks so gorgeous. great job sasha! and biotherm did a great job of casting.
