oh jeez, i've been crazy busy doing my portfolio and applying to all these colleges.. a lot of the workload has been taken off though, since i've completed all of my application requirements to FIT, which is my number one choice right now. now i have to play the waiting game till march.
right now, i'm doing another portfolio for pratt, parsons, etc.. i've got 3 more pieces to make and then my parsons challenge. it's such a pain having to make two different portfolios! well here's one of the fashion sketches i've done, i've been neglecting blogger so much lately and i probably will be until February! so i'll say it now- happy holidays and happy new years!

ANSWER, quite surprising- i never would've guessed!

the ad campaigns this season has been a bit of a lackluster to be honest. but the new alexander mcqueen ads takes the spotlight- they're stunning! i esp love the first one, the dark eerie background with the black bird's nest and the red hair tangled around it is gorgeous.

time for trivia- can you guess which designer these ad campaigns were shot for?

at first glance, i only saw the top half of diane. i got so excited that she wore this-

but, this is a feast for the eyes too.

i think diane would look stunning in this one. but then so would you and so would i.

so, who's going to don the lace this fall? even if i wanted to give it a go, i probably wouldn't be able to find any decent lace around where i live. but, i am giving the lace leggings a serious thought. wasn't so fond of them back when karl lagerfeld did them for his spring collection, but this girl below me looks so chic with them, it's hard to resist.




these two pictures above are from this lovely site- garance doré.
it's got some beautiful captures of street style, which reminds me that fashion week is coming in just a few days. i cannot wait for the collections... and the pictures of the paris vogue team.

looking through the fall collections, ive spotted two styles of hats that i really like this season- it's inspired me enough that i'm actually going to bother getting a hat, and i never wear hats. and ive also realized- the more i look at the dolce&gabbana collection, the more i love.

Look#1: Chanel, Dolce&Gabbana


Look#2: Burberry Prorsum, Marni, Burberry Prorsum

if i had my way, i think i would go for the one on carolina from burberry. you?

off topic bragging: going to see radiohead on monday- i am sooooooooooo excited!!!!!
