I'm not sure if it was the styling, the hair, the face of the model, or the pieces are just sooo sassy on its own. Everything just works out so well and the glam chic is undoubtedly amazing. Look at that noir cocktail dress ensemble!

Gigantic Eraser for Really Big Mistakes
Bobby Pins, hair ties, paper clips and erasers, they share one thing in common- some tiny little random things that they tend to go nowhere whenever you need them. Just now it has happened to me once again, I was seeking for an eraser all over my house for like half an hour and I wasn't even kidding! The most immediate solution I have in mind is that, I have a huge need in this on my table!
H&M Satin Boyfriend Blazer
When you are looking for a well-made piece with affordable prices, H&M is certainly a to-go place. I've been craving for a boyfriend blazer for months and they just always tend to be ridiculously overpriced. I decided to have a visit to H&M last week and I was in luck that they have exactly what I'm looking for in their F/W collection. The fabric is the perfect fit for fall, yet it only costs CAD$34.95! I was all thrilled and took a while to decide getting either light grey or the nude color. I picked up the light grey at the end as it seemed to be a bit more wearable. Love it. One of my favorite recent purchases!

Olivia Palermo for ASOS magazine
Something special about Olivia is that she could look all sophisticated in a Chanel ensemble at this moment and transform into a fab Marc Jacobs lady in the next sec. (or basically she just looks good in any ways with such beautiful face features.) These few pages of magazine spread has reinforced my "statement" once again- people with small faces just always take the advantage!

M.A.C BlushCreme
M.A.C BlushCreme has been my recent favorite. I've been using the one in Ladyblush (a cool pink) for quite a while, it's such an awesome blush that I'm convinced to get more! I happened to pick up my second can in an outlet store with half price off during my trip down to states. The color called Pleasureful, a nice peachy shade with the right amount of pink to flatter the complexion, but somehow this color has been discontinued.(?) A real wonderful blush that adds a flush of color to get away my paleness, giving off a natural healthy glow in a minimal effort.

Adidas X Jeremy Scott Sneakers for kids
Another cute pair of children's shoes. Long ago I've been thinking the Wings sneakers under the collection of Jeremy Scott for Adidas Originals by Originals might look just a little bit too cute for adults (especially for manly guys), and now, they released a version for kids! Translating the shoes into a children's fit, the two little wings looks ultra adorable and everything just looks very perfect now.*love*
Iris Van Herpen S/S 11 Preview
The idea of applying water crystallization on fashion is absolutely amazing. Every pieces is like a blend of science and fashion, very futuristic-looking.

Pin & Needles Cardigans
I've been receiving emails introducing the store's "Back to School" line, while my summer courses aren't even over yet! But! The crazy sales lately is making me over-shopped and already picked up some staples for school, including the cardigans from Pins & Needles. They're extremely lightweight and I found they can go with everything, from jeans to formal, loving the delicate embroidered details used!

Tiiu Kuik by Michelle Ferrara for Vogue Novias F/W 2010
Little Black Dress has been a necessity in every women's wardrobe for decades, what about a pretty little white dress? I'm not sure whether Kuik's seductive poses in the pictures really goes with the theme but the styling of this editorial is truly amazing.
Kate Moss for Longchamp Fall 2010 Ad Campaign
It's reasonable to assume that Kate Moss's first collaboration with Longchamp has been running successful hence we can see the second collection of the year. The Ad Campaign looks damn cool with the barely-brushed hair and nonchalance shown from the poses. Even though there wasn't anything striking about the bags to be perfectly honest, but supermodel Kate Moss is just irresistible, isn't it?
Sanrio for Dr. Martens 50th Anniversary Collection
Dr. Martens teamed up with Sanrio for a limited edition collection as part of Dr.Martens 50th Anniversary. Releasing this fall, this exclusive collection featured 5 signature styles including the 1460 8-eye boots. Sanrio might not be my cup of tea ever since I'm out of elementary school, but we just can't deny the puffy red bow on a pair of originally grungy-styled boots is real cute!

Sequin Playsuit
My favorite look of Le Blog de Betty recent posts, when I first look at it I thought it was two individual pieces. A brilliant idea of combining ruffles chiffon tank and glittery shorts, a very flattering yet inspiring look- let's play around with your tops and bottoms made of different fabrics!
Aveeno Sunscreen Lotion with SPF 50
Lately we get to hear a lot about the importance of sunscreen from both magazines and Youtube gurus, however I found most of the sunscreen with high SPF protection usually leaves a greasy finishing. I've ran out of my old one and purchased this new tube from Aveeno as replacement few days ago, this product is just fantastic! It's actually my first sunscreen lotion with "non-greasy & oil-free formula" that works as what it claimed! This sunscreen has SPF 55 with UVA/UVB protection, containing vitamins C, E and natural soy proteins. It is also waterproof and non-comedogenic(won't clog pores!). Highly recommendable!

H&M Divided Fall 2010 Ad Campaign
It's sad to say but fall is approaching, and here comes the Fall 2010 Ad Campaign from the Divided line of H&M. I paid a visit in H&M this afternoon, and found some of the pieces featured in this campaign has already arrived! The qualities and designs are retained and looking as great as before, but with even lower pricing!(I think) They ran out of small sizes real quick by the way, most of the stuff I picked are already gone, so go check out asap while stock still lasts!

Net-a-Porter Magazine
(On model: Sweater Dress by Stella McCartney)
Pieces for fall from different labels are already out while I don't really get a chance to wear tanks and shorts up till now as these few months has been relatively cool. Can't believe it's mid-summer already! It'll soon be time for me to pick up some essentials for the coming fall, and I'm inspired that sweater dress would be one of my must-haves after viewing the Net-a-Porter Magazine. Sweater dress does a great job on keeping your body warmth and it's extremely comfy to wear. Most importantly, pull this on and you're already good to go!(very ideal for lazy mornings!)

Brian Lichtenburg for Forever 21
Forever 21 is launching their first collaboration finally! For this very first time, they decided to hook up with the LA-based designer, Brian Lichtenburg. (If you watched Lada Gaga's Telephone Music Video and noticed the caution tape ensemble, that's his design!) It'll hit the stores on Aug 13, the collaboration will actually include a wearable version of the caution tape outfit<- I'm really excited for that!
Rebacca Minkoff Fall 2010 Launch Video
Nothing quite striking in this collection but I found it's more fun and things seems to be more interesting viewing the lookbook in video clip than in pictures! What do you prefer?
Model Off Duty: Jessica Stam
Spotted Jessica Stam exiting the Christian Dior Haute Couture Show. What a cute pair of bubble shorts she got!
