MArtin Lim à la Semaine de la mode de MTL

L'année dernière, à pareil date, j'étais à Montréal et j'étais stagiaire pour la Banque Laurentienne. Je voulais faire quelque chose que je ne pouvais pas faire à Sherbrooke et j'ai décidé d'assister à mon premier défilé de mode: Martin Lim.

Je n'avais jamais entendu parler de ce duo de designer (Pao Lim et Danielle Martin). Sur place, j'ai constaté que la force de la marque était la fluidité et les coupes. Les robes, pas extravagantes, étaient bien structurées et semblaient flotter dans l'air. Martin Lim a connu du succès surtout avec leur collaboration avec Reitmans pour une collection de robe de Noël (j'aurai dû m'en procurer un...) Pour la nouvelle année 2013, je suis à Sherbrooke, mais j'ai vu des images de leur nouvelle défilé et collection, voici mes coups de coeur:

Très fluide, avec des coupes structurées et des accents de couleur aux bonnes places!

Geek dresses

Gosh, I'm really happy that I'm getting sewing courses! You know why?? Because I could make my own Geek Dresses!!! I saw some on the web and I think they're awesome!

Beyond the Rack shoes!!!

JC day 10: Festival Mode et Design

Bonjour!!! Voici mes bijoux pour le dixième jour de mon challenge!!! Aztech orange!

Jeudi dernier, le 2 août, moi et ma très bonne amie Jessika du Blogue VIBE! sommes allé à MTL pour participer au festival mode et design. Pour moi, c'était ma première expérience. Je suis déjà aller à la semaine de la mode en février dernier, mais jamais à ce festival. Ce festival se déroulait du 1 au 4 août sur la rue MCGill College, à deux pas de mon ancien stage!!! C'est un festival pour nous présenter les dernières créations de nos designers d'ici ainsi que les look d'automne des grands magasins. Voici quelques photos:

Nous avions eu la chance de se faire prendre en photo pour montrer nos looks et surtout nos chaussures! sur la scène ci-dessus, il y a eu le défilé Lolë

Dans les rues, des bus du STM vintage étaient décorés selon les designers, voici OLDWIG un magasin de vintage

Le soir, nous avions assisté au défilé Trans/paraître. C'était un mélange de plein de designer. La plus part des vêtements étaient trop simple, comme Ça va de soi, leurs linges trop relax. Mais la ligne Lyn avec leur tricot immense me font rappeler YSL.

NINJA HOODIE!!!!

JC day 9: Nature!!!

My T-shirt supports Earth day, so my jewelery should do the same.

JC Day 8: Preppy apple :)

JC Day 4 and 5: Trip to CP and light as a feather

Day 4: on my way to school and then on my way to COLDPLAY!

DAy 5: Blue feathers from Material Girl and a C necklace for Catherine and for COLDPLAY!

Disney goes fashion

Ever wanted to be a princess? I wanted to be Mulan when I was smaller because Mushu was the bomb! But now growing up, I've lost interest compared to others who seem to by still wonderstruck. One thing I will always like are the dresses! And I recently found on Geekologie some sketches of Fashion Disney Characters made by a Deviant Art user Sashii-Kami:


Mulan looks aweful.... But the concept is cool none the less!

Who is your favorite? In the collection, I like Belle.

JC Day 4: cascade of pearls

You can't go wrong with pearls, to bad I'm using them now...

Pokemon shoes! I choose you!

When I was young, we had 151 pokemon. Now there are over 9000!!! (See here, mem joke!) Not but now it has exploded, but people get inspired by these new pokemon and create pretty awesome things like cosplay and fashion. Here is a great example:

THese shoes are from Joco Comendador a new shoe designer and he got inspired by Ombreon. I think these booties are awesome, I would totally wear them. I wish he does more of these! But at 200 $ a pair, I can still dream!

Jewlery Challenge: DAy 3 corail colors

HELLLLLLLO :) Day is about corail colors and corails feeling. The accessories are from my mother, she has great taste :)

A cupcake you can wear

I was surfing the web like any other person and I found this:

A cupcake blanket. Yes you read right. I thought Snuggies were awful, but this? You know what, I would get this as a joke for myself and then wear it outside with a ski mask to scare kids. Just kidding! But at 89 $ it's still a funny joke.

Jewelery Challenge Day 1: Rules and why?

Why challenge myself to a jewelery challenge? Well, I recently had a jewelery haul and sometimes I rediscover jewels that I hid somewhere. I also have the impression that I'm always wearing the same things but with a 3 weeks rotation. SOOOO I decided to challenge my jewelery collection.

RULES

1. The challenge only applies to earrings and necklaces. Bracelets, rings and watches are not considered in the challenge because for 1 bracelet, I have 200 earrings. (close to 200.......)
2. I shall wear a different pair of earings and/or necklace everyday for as long as I can. If I wear something twice, I lose... nothing, but the fact I can't complete a challenge.
3. I will document my days with the blog
4. If I decide to wear one piece for only a short period of time, it still counts and I can't wear it anymore.
5. Weekends do not escape the challenge
6. If I don't wear jewelery one day, i'm still fine :)
7. I'll try not to buy new jewelery....
8. Wish me luck!

DAY 1: white Heart earings and silver/blue necklace

Got some Fame with Lady Gaga

AS you might have heard, the one and only Lady Gaga decided to lauch a perfum called Fame. When I first heard of it, she said that the fragrance would have blood and sperm in it... right, well it's typical GAGA! It is marketed as the first "Black Fragrance" Here is a quote from Coty:

 Gaga worked with fragrance giant Coty for the new scent which is being touted as the ‘ first-ever black perfume’ (it goes on clear). Featuring notes of belladonna, incense, saffron, honey, apricot nectar, crushed tiger orchid, and jasmine sambac – the scent promises to be as dark and complex as its muse. Fame – also dubbed ‘Black Fluid’ got its name, “It’s black, like the soul of fame” – according to the Mama Monster herself. She would know.

No blood or sperm here! I would like to try it, it intrigues me :) So want do you think? "The bizarre ad campaign is set for a September debut along with commercials and a three-minute film to promote the perfume. Fame’s egg-shaped bottle, which is embellished with a gold, claw-like cap, was designed in collaboration with fashion image-maker and Gaga fave collaborator, Nick Knight. “Lady Gaga conceived this egg idea back at the Grammy Awards where she came out of an egg, so it’s symbolic,” explained a source. "

The campaing for the scent is unusual also, here are some pictures and video:

Look de la veille!

Voici un look que j'ai porté vendredi dernier. Et oui, je suis super en retard... paresse de pachat :) Look marine!

DIY Comic book heels

One day, ONE DAY, when I have the time and the money to chop comics and buy sweet shoes, I will do this and rock your world!!

DIY Killer Comic Book Heels
Time: Eight hours per shoe 

Mod Podge

Vinyl Shoes:
Comics: Already owned 

Cut up a few comics into jagged, odd pieces. Use Mod Podge and a paint brush to stick. Tackle the heels and edges first, keeping the lines nice and straight, then fill in the gaps with bigger feature pieces. You can try a theme if you like (Avengers heels anyone?) but I just went generic for my first try. Use thinner strips on the curves or you’ll get bumps.

Save some fine cut feature words, speech bubbles and/or characters to really stand out as a final touch. Patience and a steady hand are key here! You can use a craft knife but I used scissors like a boss.

Fill in the platform or don’t, leave the heel blank or don’t. YOU ARE THE MASTER OF YOUR OWN DESTINY.

When completely covered, coat in matte or gloss Mod Podge and leave to dry overnight. Coat once more and leave for a day.

Wear. Be fabulous. SUCCEED.

Look du jour #ootd

Voici mon fabuleux look du jour! Cet ensemble ma coûté VRAIMENT pas cher! On aime ça les soldes!!! Les bijoux (que j'adore à cause de leur aspect ludique!) proviennent de Claire's, la ceinture d'Ardene, la rode de H&M, les sandales d'Aldo et le sac à main de Spring. Au total, ce look m'a coûté 60 $ ! Je pourrais bien me voir dans l'émission Diva on a Dime!

On essaie les poses de mannequin

Attitude...

Gummy bear dress: SWEEEEEET

For the first issue of Twelv magazine, the staff created a dress made out of 50 000 gummy bears!!! It weights 200 pounds and it needs 3 adults to move. The insperation for this masterpiece is Alexander McQueen, the great british designer who passed away a couple of years ago. After gummy bears on sticks and jumbo ones, the fad is continuing.

Taking three weeks to complete, the final dress was fitted exactly to MAJOR model Jessica Pitti's measurements. And weighing in at approximately 220 pounds, required the strength of three adults to move.

The shoot was held at Splashlight Studios and took 4 to 5 hours to complete.
