Colour: Red

I haven’t really spent time browsing thru Wardrobe Remix before and tonight i decided to take time to see what lovely outfits people pull together. Subconsciously i found myself keeping (Firefox) tabs of girls particularly in red or hints of open. So these are a few that i would like to learn a thing or two from.


emilie who? Love the scarlet on her lips, the miu miu bag (of cos) and she pulls off highwaisted jeans very well. Everytime i take a glance at the picture, her red lips are all i see.


the use of red here is just naughty to me, as you scan doozywhoop from head to toe, it does the “now you see it, now you don’t and now you see it again! “.


Two simple outfits yet there’s something to talk about, from _venusinfurs_. I really like her blouse in the second pic and how she turned a potentially dull combination around with a swirl of a red belt.


Striking use of fire engine red, fierce! But somehow the classyness of tweexcore’s houndstooth jacket plus the gold buttons balanced out the funkiness. I would timidly have gone with black or white tights cos it’s the most apparent. So i really like this one.


thenewclotheshorse did the complete opposite of the outfit above. Bright flowery dress and the cutest red ribbon toned down with black here and there.

Amazing John Galliano

I’ve been trying to follow fashion blogs as well as style.com this entire Fall/Winter 2008 and I don’t know how to comment much on trends and such but so far, I was going gaga over the stuff from Chloe, Gucci and McQueen. I meant to do a post on the Chloe show but i didn’t so when i saw the John Galliano collection last night, i thought i’d put up my favourites!

The work on hair and makeup is stunning. The attention to the hair and head pieces was what caught my eye. The gold paint in the first picture, it made me smile. And i love how they painted on the curvy hairline. The cream frosting turban in the second picture and the feathers for hair, i don’t know what to say but i love it all. It’s already inspiring me in terms of illustrated thoughts in my head.

And i’m digging the pastel tights and their unlikely colour combinations with the clothes. Whenever i see colours exercised like that, i get very intrigued. Mainly because like many, i’m timid when it comes to clashing colours. I hope these imagery i see seep into my subconsciousness and come alive when i’m picking out new clothes.
