Fashion Blogger Diaries – Perfectism

I was recently invited to Bangkok International Couture Fashion Week. I’m really excited to see my first fashion show in Asia after moving here in August (!)

I miss winter. I think it’s my favorite season (Says the girl who lives in Thailand when its hot all year long, maybe that’s why) also fashion-wise. If I had to choose which season fashion month to go to it will always be Fall/Winter.

My last outfit post was also inspired by Moschino, I absolutey adore them. I had to have the jacket but I couldn’t find it online anywhere, and there is no Moschino in Israel. Well, there is no anything in Israel. I made the jacket myself with my mother, we altered it a little bit so it could be worn in hotter months, like the beginning of Spring for example. All the jewels and the chains on the sleeves are necklaces, and earrings we broke apart other than a few we brought at the Designer Fabrics  store. I am super happy with the result, I love this jacket! What do you think?

When I think about resort collections, I think vacation. Those of you who know me know I think through every detail of my outfit and I take forever to get ready. However, vacation for me is different. I like things that look effortless but still look amazing. Think Anna dello Russo by day and Elin Kling by vacation!

This resort season I was disappointed and unimpressed with most of my favorite designers and I loved things I normally wouldn’t wear any other season. I am an over the top person but vacation is vacation, even vacation from myself.

My favorite resort collection 2013 was Valentino, I wanted everything! These are the Top 10 Designers I chose and the Top 2 looks from everyone of them, I had a hard time choosing my 10^th one, because there were so many great collections. Other collections worth seeing are Jason Wu, Elizabeth & James, The Row, Prabal Gurung, Proenza Schoeler, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Preen, 3.1 Phllip Lim, Salvatore Ferragamo, Michael Kors, and Carolina Herrera.

A few months ago my cousin Lee got married I was so nervous for her that night I completely forgot to take pictures of my outfit to show you guys. The one that was inspired by Moschino’s gold tux (see it here), that I am so obsessed with. I really didn’t want to wear a gown to her wedding, so I instantly thought about the gold tux with a black bow tie!

I found this jacket at Zara, I actually bought it for like 90% off on sale (!) and the tux-inspired pants are previous season from Zara as well. I had asked my mother to make me the bow tie, because I really couldn’t find a nice one anywhere. Bryanboy would hate it here.

P.S. I know you cant see the shoes but they are my black Luxury rebel jeweled ankle boots (Here)

The next big thing to collaborate with fast fashion chain H&M is not a high-fashion brand. No, even better: Fashion Maniac, Legendary fashion Icon, and editor-at-large of Vogue Japan Anna Dello Russo is now teaming up with H&M to create a unique accessories line. You can, of course, expect it to be nothing less than over-the-top and here’s a little sneak peak for those of you who, like me, cannot wait to get your hands on the collection.

The collection offers everything from earrings,  gemmed sunglasses, embellished minaudières, and (of course since she has 4,000 pairs) shoes. The collection is due to be available October 4th in select H&M stores.

“I wanted to create precious accessories that are impossible to find. As a stylist I know accessorization is essential: it is the personal touch to any outfit.” – Anna Dello Russo

Stay Tuned for more sneak peaks from this incredible collection!

My friend Sandra actually posted about Scarf Trends as the Must have of Spring Summer 2012, Check it out here on Sandra’s Closet!

The title of this post should really be Searching, Or I Spy. I get stopped on the street all the time when I wear this shirt, “Where did you get it?” Well, just like them I have been looking all over Israel for a shirt similar to this that doesn’t cost over $500, because that’s just not in my budget, no matter how much I want it. I checked Zara, but their’s aren’t like the Versace ones with the italian patterns. So I got sick and tired, and as usual, decided to make it myself. I went to the fabric market, and didn’t find a thing. So I went to the Shuk (Market) and I randomly found these beautiful silk scarves in green with sheer stripes I bought 4 of them for $2 each. Unbelievable, right? Well, I think so. I went home, made a pattern, cut it, and asked my mother to sew it (I hate sewing with a passion) The green python pants are the other way around, when  I went searching for the scarves, I found this amazing leather python fabric and my mother and I bought them in every color they had. I was going to make a Prada style coat but it’s getting so hot here in Israel, It would simply sit in the closet until next winter.   Shame.

All of you know already that I have fallen head over heels for Moschino especially since their F/W 2011 line. Getting where I’m going? Yes, my glasses! I have looked for those Moschino cat eye glasses everywhere! I got these as sunglasses for my birthday actually, and ended up making them into eye glasses. I’m so happy with the result! They are the first eyeglasses I am willing to leave the house in. What do you think?
