Here comes the interview:

when did you pay attention to your dressing?

haha maybe when I was in high school,it's actually a bit of a sad story.I came to canada with my parents when I was in grade 4. no grade 5!  When i wore that in elementary school, there used to be a girl who made fun of what i wore.I mix-matched a lot of different colours.

And didn't really care about what I wore. It was a young age anyways..we were all innocent haha.So in high school I decided to pay a little more attention.

Dressing nicely brings about a lot of confidence,but then slowly i started to learn about fashion as a way of self-expression,not just to look nice, but to be unique and individualistic.

When do you start to sharing the outfits in the blog?

Four months ago i guess. I had my blog last year

Any kind of influence did the blog bring you?

haha not yet. I only just started blogging about personal style.

Who is your fashion icon?

I don't have a fashion icon.I don't really follow any specific person.But I do get my inspirations from street styles, street blogs.

What is your fav item?

LACE UP BOOTS. i'm really addicted

Any must-have recently?

yes, large knits.knitted sweaters

Where do you usually shop?

H&M! I live in suburban toronto.So all the malls have the same stores out of all the high fashion stores, h&m is the best!

Which designer or brand do you like best?

To be honest, valentino has always appealed to me.It's so classy,his red collections.

Currently, stella mccartney,alex wang!

If you have a chance to lead the trend, what kind of trend do you want,like changing the toronto sytle?

haha, I wish Toronto style would look like that of Paris, It's classy, tasteful

What do you think it's the most fashionable thing or word?

Personality. you don't need to follow the most recent trend to be fashionable. You just need to be able to express your own style and be comfort with it.I love to see variety and personality, rather than everyone following the same trends.

Round Sunglasses is not that strange to us. The most iconic person is John Lennon. And also you could find a lot of examples in old movies. It's no doubt that Ray-Ban is an excellent sunglasses in the streets. But since its frequency, someone who love to be extraordinary would choose an extraordinary round sunglasses. It's lovely under the current retro fashion trend. It's so popular in T stage and also streetsnaps.

In FW 2009-2010, the statement ornament may let you ignore the round sunglasses. But it should be mentioned.Proenza Schouler's looks like the age of mechanism, you could say it's the product of sci-fiction, or you could say it contains the beauty of  futurism, kinda like E.T Alien.Dries Van Noten and Ralph Lauren's focuses are on the flame, Noten's are cool, while Lauren's like noble.

You could find a lot of chics love this sunglasses. Most of them choses clothes of minimalism which makes the outfits look pretty edgy with the sunglasses. If you are that into fashionista style, there are alternatives. For flame, many prefer colored ones. Just like Rayban, the neo color brightens!

When the whole world is full of rayban guys and girls, why not choose the round sunglasses. When you choose the flame, be attention! If your face intends to be round, say no to round sunglasses!

For clothes, some simple and neat ones are all right. Cuz your round sunglasses would grab all the attention, just make sure your outfits dose not looks that much complicated.Cool style would not make the round one looks that numb. If you are going to party, just consider some disco shining style, add some metallic stuff, that will looks glamourous.

It's no need to talk about how denim shines in the 09s/s T-stage. It is crucial, however, to mention how denim outfit changes. Let's see how street chics wear it!


denim shirts with tank or t-shirt, plus shorts or legging, and roma sandle. It goes well with the current trend. or you could choose some mini skirt with floral pattern. The girl from London is an excellent example. Cardingen with denim shirt and stocking, a shoulder bag, very british retro.

 

Elan pants are hot now. Its design fits many girls well. Roll up the trouser legs and go with a flat, looks very Islanmic. What is notbale is that the matching of layers and colors. It is recommended to choose the outfit with some hightlighted colors and mutiple layers

Denim one-piece enjoys a loooong history. It could be overalls, or one-shoulder dress. It looks very vintage style. To choose a fittable one is much more preferred.

Denim Jacket is the oldest style. Borned in 80s, it still looks glamourous. Short jacket needs a long shirts。 A check shirt is your choice.

Jegging comes up lately. it is the combination of jeans and legging. It could be called the updated legging. Beyonce wears it many times in streetsnaps. Cage shoes matches it well.

We cannot live without denim shorts in summer. The  hottest item is the high-waisted one. Acne looks sailor sytle. It's so loose that you do not need any belt. Find a sailor shirt to match it.

Besides, denim has a lot more styles.Stella McCarney has a fade-out skinny jeans,Current E has a ripped and acid-washed Denim, or you could choose the gaceful denim jumpsuit and layered dress。Chloe's denim tote and Christain Laboutin's fringe shoes are all creative.

 

[Weekly Chic] Michelle Williams in White and Gold

By stellacheng · June 9, 2009 · 0 Comments · 43 Views

Michelle Williams wore a 3.1 Phillip Lim white one-shoulder dress when attending the Salute to American Heroes.

She looks so glamorous in gold and pure in white, which is perfectly fit to her style. Clean and simple.

 

Item List:

1. one shoulder dress. with a ruffled side skirt.

2. Sequin tank, hottest item of this season.

3. Silver or gold high-heeled sandle.

4. Clutch, silver one.

 

I chose these items to provide an arternative for white and gold, and I think this kind of outfit is kinda from dark power and some sorta rock star's glittering style. But silver items lighten the whole black dress, making it looks shinny but less dark.
