Spring-Summer 2011 - part.1

I know this is sooo late. its like almost entering the 3rd month of this year, but anyway... I'm still gonna post it out, so... enjoy! :)

this info is based on what I found from http://www.fashionising.com

so these are the "must have" items for SS2011

1. Sheer maxi dress

Alberta Feretti

Salvatore Ferragamo


street fashion

Topshop - US$89

2. Laced clothing - its actually already there since the year 2008 'n I think its still gonna be "in" again this year

Alexander Wang

Topshop - US$ 81

3. Crochet and Macrame
what is Crochet? Crochet is needlework done with a small hook at one end for drawing the thread or yarn through intertwined loops. (www.dictionary.reference.com)




then what about Macrame? Macrame is a relatively coarse lace; made by weaving and knotting cords. (www.thefreedictionary.com) intertwined loops. (http://dictionary.reference.com/



then, what's the difference between this two? since both are (basically knitted)
Macrame is made by knotting the main fabric to great visual affect. while Crochet isn't knotted like macrame; it's made from loops of yarn, created using a single hooked needle.

Marc Jacob

crochet - Dolce Gabbana

macrame embroidery - Dolce Gabbana

4. Tassels - a bunch of loose threads or cords bound at one end and hanging free at the other, used as an ornament on curtains or clothing (www.thefreedictionary.com)

5. Bell bottoms - designating trousers or slacks that are flared beginning at the knee or mid-calf (www.yourdictionary.com)

Derek Lam

bell bottom pants are good for some people, indeed. but lemme tell you this, only those who have skinny legs and tall are good wearing this pants. unless, this kind of pants will only make your thigh look fatter and you look shorter :)

Givenchy spring 2011 Couture

I've never been big fan of Givenchy before. but somehow this collection has changed my mind. on my perspection, I saw few stuff going on here (on a good way).

firstly, I saw geisha look-alike

I also saw a lady from ancient Chinese dynasty there..

then I saw a gorgeous Viking woman diffused with Greek-Roman empire style

lastly, this design reminds me of Joan de Arc somehow (in a futuristic costume), I don't even know why.

well, maybe those are only my own wander imagination. what about you then? what do you see?

ASOS in love

this ring is similiar with the one from Tiffany & Co. what make them different are the material and the engraving. this one (from Asos) is from Disney Couture - Tinkerbell series got inscription : believe.

these shoes are "deliciouuus". I can't even eliminate one of them from my list. *drooling*

and the dresses are extremely gorgeous!

I never bought anything from this website before, but now I'm planning to buy some stuff from them. In the mean time, I'm still trying to cut down the number of the goods from my list. But instead of decreasing, it seems like the number is getting bigger and bigger.
