NO.21
Alessandro Dell’Acqua has been in the business for years designing for himself and acting as the creative director of Malo. Once again, he has branched out to design his own line called NO.21. The name NO.21 was chosen to represent Alessandro Dell’Acqua’s birthday which also happens to be his lucky number. I enjoyed working with this collection last week … Read More
Please don’t call PETA!
I was very impressed with Norisol Ferarri who is an up and coming designer. Her collection is primarily an assortment of vests, coats and jackets made of exquisite skins. The silhouettes are beautiful and the strategically placed pockets are very convenient. She occasionally incorporates a harness in place of a belt to create a very edgy and fashion forward … Read More
Y-3 Now and Then

To make a long story short, you must be familiar with my previous post, “The Curse of the Skinny … Read More
The Curse of the Skinny Jean
Quick Background Info: Even though I may appear to be the girliest girl on the planet, I am suprisingly not. I am less than adequate when it comes to doing hair and make up. I also do not like traveling with multiple women to places like the restroom, store or worst of all the gym. The gym thing is new and can be explained by one word … Read More
You Can’t Fake Fashion
Much like Carrie on Sex and the City, I just can’t carry a fake bag. Even if it is a good replica, there is always something that gives it away which is usually the lining or logo. Even if the outside world has no idea that my bag is not authentic, I will know and … Read More
Fashion Talk
There have been many times when I am speaking to someone who is not into fashion and I catch myself using a word or a name of a designer as if it is common knowledge. As soon as it comes out of my mouth, I realize that they have no idea what I am talking … Read More
