Desginers Take a Nod at Alice in Wonderland
acknowledging the release of the Tim Burton's long awaited recreation of Alice in Wonderland, designers put together a whimsical soiree of magical proportions.

oh, for the love of detailing. Nicholas Kirkwood has definitely captured the March Hair in these immaculate pair of heels. Kirkwood claims himself that, "This was a different design process for me, because I’m not usually so applicative—typically, I’m thinking about line, silhouette. But this time, I figured, why not just pile as much as I can on top?" Loving the rosettes on appliqued on the heels!
Haider Ackerman is dark, a conceptualist. It would not be a surprise to anyone that he incorporated his sadistic, yet ironic charm into this dress. "The Queen of Hearts is an antagonist," states Ackerman.
Alice sitting, perpetually drinking tea. Alice laughing, running through the brigade of song flowers. This dress, created and designed by Charles Anastase, is the epitome of who Alice is. Based on John Tenniel's original portrait of Alice, Anastase made Alice's dress into an asymmetrical wonder. Savor the draping!
One of the more odd outfits of the exhibition, Maison Martin Margiela attempts to recreate Alice's iconic dress into something absolutely breathtaking. The "upside down" aura meant by Margiela is utterly ingenious: Alice has walked through the mirror, and her dress has been reversed. A long,flowing cerulean gown has been altered into a minidress. The plumetis have become a veil. Note the cage sleeves! I'm in love!
The Chloé Design Team has struck again! The more wearable version of Alice's dress. Quote the Team, "Running around careless and free in a romantic dress, falling down the rabbit hole, chasing time in a dreamlike state of mind, meeting unexpected characters with many tales to tell—sounds like many a girl’s night out!". Definitely something worth purchasing!

Joseph Gordon-Levitt is Pretty Close to God
"I know the nervous walking,
I know the dirty beard hangs,
Out by the boxcar waiting,
Take me away to nowhere plains
There is a wait so long,
Here comes your man"

Spotlight: (500) Days of Summer
hey everyone:
just wanted to make a little space on my blog deticated to my favourite movie of the century: (500) Days of Summer. Our society and generation has become obssesed with watching the same mainstream, boy-meets-girl love story. Take in mind, that yes, (500) Days is about about boy-meets-girl, but it is "not a love story. It is a story about love."
the two main characters are so comparable. the actors, joseph gordon-levitt
and zooey deschanel, respectively, are wonderously compatible, not to mention funny, beautiful creatures, and just plain out charming. are these two the only duo of human, ungeneric, intelligen actors? the world needs more of them.
the music in this movie is weaved in to a point that its just plain simple. a quick scan of the musical playlist left me in awe: to name a few, the smiths, regina spektor, mumm-ra, and of course the delightful meaghan smith (and her cheeky, indies-girly rendition of the pixies' "here comes your man").
this movie made me want to cry, to laugh and hold tom's hand, to nod my head in pure agreement at summer's ethics on life. this movie is REAL, its RELATABLE. go on and give it a spin.
your sure to enjoy this soon to be indie cult favorite(:

McQUEEN!
in love with the alexander mcqueen A/W '10. the eighties are back with this textural head dresses and vinyl umbrella hats. hounds tooth fabric adds to the unforgettable era. this collection is a mix between leigh bowery (iconic '80s transgender sex icon/exhibitionist) and huge red lips. by huge i mean HUGE. love the feathery cave that surrounds the model on the left. LOVE LOVE LOVE <333. onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpsFCBWF18e1fLJefU_6zES6ociTuM6YjtGWDq9SgOxJm5Q41GtWhf0dsW_JVslIYBxU4UfAk_o8CYCo8N0MzPNQifXeFxhvAK_wML84em28yqSp5XO0fNlJzcyQVOfrdLcAS6liNEd14/s1600-h/Leigh+Bowery.jpg">
leigh bowery for life! he was so awesome, bending all the rules of fashion, not ever fitting in anywhere. his lips sort of look like the lips from mcqueen this season. who said fashion and trends couldn't be recycled?? leigh..... i love youuu. you inspired me to think outside the box of conventional fashion statements and to colour outside the nonexistent fashion lines!! all crappy fashion trends..be gone! i have my own ideas now! HAHA!xx,
addy.
