From Paris to New York.

So, the New York Fashion Week was just over and London Fashion Week has just launched yesterday while Milan Fashion Week will come straight after that, one can just expect the amount of traveling I have to go through. Thus, I am fabulously sure many of us have set our eyes on things to buy when the collections hit the stores. For the rest of you, I'll try my best to have a couple of stuff that I do like.



Starting things off is the annual The Heart Truth Red Dress Collection. An annual collection by many big names creating an awareness on the risks of heart disease among women. Tim Gunn, mentor of Project Runway, opened the show before Amanda Bynes walked in with a Daniel Swaroski number. And then it began, one A-list celebrity after the other graced the runway like Susan Lucci in Gustavo Cadille and Daisy Fuentes in Pamelle Rolland as seen above.



From left, Vivica A Fox in Jenny Packham, Natasha Hendrige in Verrier and Kristy Yamaguchi in Vera Wang.



Then, the lady who put 'wonder' in Wonderwoman, Lynda Carter in Carolina Herrera and Tori Spelling in one of the most eccentric designer, Betsey Johnson.




Also catwalking down the runway is Cicely Tyson in B Michael and Catie Couric Carmen in Marc Valvo. Are you seeing red, yet?

Omega's New Ambassador



The Memoirs of A Geisha star, Zhang Ziyi (or Ziyi Zhang for the western counterparts) is the latest addition to Omega's long list of who's who in cinema, sports and fashion and thus, earns her a spot as Omega's ambassador.


Zhang Ziyi is a Global Ambassador for the Special Olympics, the competition for those with mental disabilities and is an ambassadress for Care for Children, a foster-home program organized in China.

With all those credentials, she still manages to get her people angry over her new year pictures on the Caribbean island of St Barts with her fiance Vivi Nevo. I say, give that girl a break, everyone needs to loosen up at times, aye?

However, don't sweat over it. Apparently, she is back in China filming her latest comedy, Sophie's Revenge, which she costars with Chinese actress Fan Bingbing and South Korean actor So Jisub. Of course, this will also be the frist movie that she will be producing.
