National Day fever!

National Day was just over but the dinners for national day ain't over yet. There is still the Prime Minister's rally speech this weekend! So, I thought I might show a couple more dresses to wear for those patriotic feel. Haha.

Both the dresses I am featuring are both from London- based Singaporean designer, Ashley Isham. This first number is a more simple and sexy party dress, suitable for our weather and you can most probably find it in his boutique at Fullerton. After all, the dresses are from Spring/Summer 08 collection.

This other piece, on the other hand, takes a lot of confidence to pull it off. Maybe, for an art exhibition? Or maybe not, you might be mistaken as one of the works! Haha!

More shoes!

First up is this really weird but quite clever flip flop/ shoe. Yup, I can't decide which it is. But i guess, it makes a great transition from the wet market to the supermarket, perhaps?
DSquared2 came up with this tartan ankle boot. I love the color and all, im not so sure about the tartan. I think tartan is kinda like last year. The shoe looks very chunky and not to mention rebellious! Haha! I think i saw it in some fashion arcade game online! haha! Maybe, it will be nice for a punk concert!

Happy Birthday Singapore!

First of all, Happy National Day to Singaporeans! And since national day is the day where we take out all of out red and white outfits to wear, I thought i might as well highlight two outfits by two Singaporean designers in red and white. First up, the man known for his gowns and wedding dresses, Frederick Lee. What a stunning red dress! Perfect for a black tie event, huh? Kudos to Joe Rahim too, though for being such a wonderful wardrobe stylist. Hope to see more great works from both of them soon!
Next up, Hayden Ng's red and white sating Scarf dress. He has been comin up with lots of scarf dresses and he was the one who came up with the magic skirt. And if you don't really want the red and white scarf dress, you can always get the other variety.

Also, I just wanna highlight that I love the dress Ms Eunice Olsen wore to the National Day Parade. If only I can get a hold on that picture. She looks stunning with the hair all neatly coiffed up. Definitely, the best dressed Nominated Member of Parliament.

Marc Jacobs married?

Well, there has been words flying around in the fashion world that designer, Marc Jacobs is marrying his boyfriend of 5 years last weekend. However, it has not yet been made official which leaves the whole of fashion world guessing if Marc Jacobs and the Brazilian ad executive, Lorenzo Martone walked down the isle in Paris.
However, they were spotted in Formentara, Spain together with Kate Moss, her mum and daughter over the weekend. So, we will just have to wait for the news!

The Dutchess' shoes & The Heiress' s hobby.

It seems that more and more celebrities are turning into designers and it also seems that the Dutchess a.k.a Fergie and the Heiress a.k.a Paris Hilton are joining this flock. Yup! Who will have the better designed shoes? I am thinking Fergie. Her shoe line will only be out coming Spring but sneak peeks are already on the way. Apparently, she already launched the line for viewing and viewing I did. Judging from the shoes in the picture, I think her shoes will do quite well. And, as for Ms Hilton, Paris Hilton, her shoe line has already been launched in Las Vegas. Perhaps more gold pumps or pretty in pink sky high stilletoes? We'll see. Oh, her dress is gorgeous though.
So, who do you think will be a better shoe designer? Will the Dutchess rule the runway or will the Heiress expand her empire?
