ronde de nuit.

My fave gap-toothed model, Ashley Smith, takes on airy and gothic-romance looks against the dramatic backdrop of mysterious and visually engaging editorial 'Ronde de Nuit' for the #119 issue (December 2010/January 2011) of Numéro, photographed by Ben Hassett and styled by Capucine Safyurtlu. Those statues and gorgeous architectural structures are just... breathtaking.

hip pop.

W Magazine's "Design Issue" offers up a spread that is quite riveting. Britt Maren stars in a delightfully-dizzy colorful portfolio photographed by Solve Sundsbo and styled by the famed Lori Goldstein, the kaleidoscopic bold array of colors and patterns captured among some of the hottest pre-fall pieces that blow our tiny minds are just plain SICK!

snap, crackle and pop.

Joachim Mueller-Ruchholtz shoots my fave gap-toothed blonde, Ashley Smith, in this lustrous editorial for Dansk (styled by Anders Sølvsten Thomsen). Everything screams color from the animal print clothing through to the patterned crop top, and even right down to the finer details such as the nail polish.

cold and bouncy.

I was browsing through net-a-porter.com and I could do nothing but drooling over everything there. I was looking for some winter inspiration (I know there's no winter in Indonesia, GODDAMNIT!) and now I want to share some of my fave pieces with you. Look at these coats, capes, jackets, and knits.. I can't help it.

1. Vivienne Westwood Red Label Two-tone wool-blend coat £531.91
2. Burberry Cotton-twill trench coat £621.48
3. Moschino Bouclé wool coat with ribbon flower £1,238.30
4. Sonia Rykiel Wool-felt coat dress £910.64
5. Roberto Cavalli Brocade wool coat £3,204.26

I almost died when I saw that Moschino number! I definitely would wear these beauties like... for real. Summer nights are often cold anyway. Hahaha.

1. Vanessa Bruno Cape-style bouclé-wool jacket £519.15
2. Rebecca Taylor Belted wool-blend cape £489.36
3. Emilio Pucci Cashmere and wool-blend cape £1,272.34
4. Alexander McQueen Wool belted cape £1,297.87
5. Yves Saint Laurent Asymmetric crepe cape £1,046.81

A light-weight cape is probably a good idea for tropical country. I'm so gonna find one! But not with similar price-tag, for sure...

1. Acne Velocite oversized shearling aviator jacket £1,195.74
2. Antonio Berardi Shearling and suede jacket £2,557.45
3. Burberry Prorsum Cropped shearling aviator jacket £1,586.96
4. Alexander McQueen Leather biker jacket £2,434.04
5. Vivienne Westwood Red Label Wool-blend zebra-print jacket £302.13
6. Willow Draped sequin and mesh jacket £1,731.92

Shearling, biker, asymmetrical... So-called perfection.

1. Moschino Wool and cashmere ruffled cardigan £565.96
2. D&G Wool-blend Fair Isle cardigan £408.51
3. Maison Martin Margiela Mohair-blend scalloped-knit cardigan £540.43
4. Pringle of Scotland Oversized cashmere sweater £1,187.23
5. Miu Miu Cable-knit wool sweater £523.40

6. Alexander McQueen Skull-print silk-blend cardigan £646.81

The most suitable inspiration for I-could-wear-them-in-my-tropical-country. Sweaters and cardigans are great enough for rainy days.

So, what is your favorite piece? xx

kling.

I just browsed around and found these beautiful Kling ad campaigns and suddenly fell in love. Built around sweet mini-dresses covered in florals, soft details, frills, light material, and softly colored hues, Kling campaigns are only made more appealing and inviting by the gorgeous styling and photographs.

The spring 2010 lookbook 'Picnic Folk' captured every great moments of picnic party with the rays of sunlight, the hammocks for lazy days, and the delightful dresses.

While, the summer 2010 lookbook 'Fun Fair' is the cutest playful mix of bright and pastel colors. The girls in the adorable dresses laying in the sand, the little boat rides in the most darling outfits, it has such a great vintage feel and totally makes me want to be on the beach with a cute white summer dress on!


I admit myself that I never heard of this Madrid label before, but the ad campaigns have stolen my heart. My absolute favorite kind of lookbook: with a dreamy, vintage feel and washed-out hues, and girls who look just that little bit sleepy. Very inspiring for blog-post shots and now the illustration of my inspired-photo-session is running through my mind...

ps. Do you like my new layout? ;D
