Fashion Alert: Christian Siriano's Spring 2013 Collection

Hey lovelies!! First of all we would like to apologize for not blogging since last month, we've been so busy lately, and now I'm glad that we're back again <3

Sooooo, I'm back with a fashion alert this time, as we all know the awards season is almost over, and we've seen so many beautiful gowns on the red carpet. Speaking about gowns, aren't our hearts beat harder when we hear "Christian Siriano"? His gorgeous designs are amazingly noticeable, worn by many celebreties like Heidi Klum, Nicki Minaj, Taylor Swift, Rihanna, and much more.

The "Project Runway" youngest winner launched his incredible fashion line shortly after winning, and he was able to put his own unique stamp in the fashion industry. We call him the "McQueen of his generation" ! His gowns were described to be hardly imagined anywhere but the runway, in another words, they're pieces of art!

Here are some photos from his recent collection,
Spring 2013 (READY-TO-WEAR) :

Golden Globes Glam

Hey fashionholics!! I know it had been around 2 weeks since the Golden Globes, almost all the fashion magazines and bloggers across the world wrote and posted about it. I was very impressed this year (as well as every year) about many amazing looks by different celebrities on the red carpet, so glamorous!

Here are my favorite looks:
Jessica Alba looked flawless in Oscar De La Renta <3 She styled it perfectly with an amazing $5.8 million dollars Harry Winston necklace and a Roger Vivier clutch. (For us, Jessica is definitely the star!)



Amy Adams in Marchesa and Hayden Panettiere in Roberto Cavalli, both glowed in the fishtail trend this year (as known as mermaid cuts) <3 LOVE !!





Adele in Burberry Prorsum, Taylor Swift in Donna Karan Atelier, and Jennifer Lopez in Zuhair Murad <3 One word to describe their whole look, hair style, and make up: GORGEOUS !!
 

 
Beautiful Kate Hudson in Alexander McQueen <3 And who can say something when McQueen is involved? :P Stunning as always Kate !


 
Sofia Vergara is pretty in black, wore a beautiful glittery Michael Cinco dress!



Michelle Dockery in a white Alexandre Vauthier gown with dramatic gold embroidery. So magical !!



But of course I can't just ignore the other looks, I believe that other celebreties had lost it a little bit, ok no wait, some of them lost it completely :)

So what do we have here? Sienna Miller looked nice and blooming in an Erdem dress, however, she let her look down by doing that hair style and make up :/
 


Well, well, well.... Something is shining over here, or can I just say hmmm too shiny maybe?! Why Alyssa why?
 


Ok let's just be fair enough, the color looked nice on Anna Gunn (I'm not so sure who's the designer though) BUT there is something confusing and a little bit boring, ok wait it's the hemline and the neck details :)
 


I've always admired Guiliana's style! But not this time :( I think its too goth and dramatic for her!
 

Which look was your favorite?? I would love to know! ;) xx

Nail Glam: My Favorites for Fall

Hello all,
During the recent years I found that nail art has become one of the necessary items that complete your glam. Although I am not really any good at drawing whatsoever and for sure, not when it comes to nails specifically, I still LOVE all the different ranges of color out there. At one stage, my goal was just to collect nail polishes even if I rarely use them or at some cases, never even consider wearing them!
So anyhow, it is during this time of the year that I go for dark and bold colors. I'm not quite the adventurous person, so I must say that most of these colors are your typical stables for fall. What a step out of the cliches ha?



One thing you can never go wrong with during any season is your classic red. It is just timeless. And although there isn't anything wrong, to me at least, with a bright red nail polish, burgundies are mostly what I prefer during this time of the year. They look sophisticated, elegant and most importantly they suit all skin tones. So, my first favorite is the Dolce&Gabbana in Dahlia 160.

Dolce&Gabbana - Dahlia 160

My second favorite was a gift from Alia. I know it's irrelevant but I just LOVE LOVE LOVE the packaging. This is Dior's Diva 901 and it was part of the holiday collection. It is a black with a fine golden shimmer. It doesn't really show much on your nails from a far, but up close you can notice the shimmer. This is out of stock nearly everywhere but I believe you can find something similar in essie, nailstation or OPI. 

Dior - Diva 901

The next two are for those who don't want to go for a black but still want a really dark color. The first one is dark blue (Chanel - Blue Satin 461) and the next is a dark purple (Chanel - Vendetta 483). Both of them have subtle shimmer through them but it's hardly noticeable on the nails. The look black with a hint of blue or a hint of purple with two coats and they are all part of the permanent line so YAY for that!

Chanel - Blue Satin 461


Chanel - Vendetta 483

The last color is a bit on the neutral side. It was a hit last year or maybe the year before, I'm not really sure. But whether it's still in or not, I love how unique this color is. It is not part of the permanent line unfortunately, but there are lots of dupes made by OPI and essie. It's kind of a mushroom color as most people describe it. If you don't want to go for this color, a light grey would be an excellent alternative.

Chanel - Particuliére 505

All five nail polishes I have mentioned are also great in terms of the formula and the color pay off. 

What's your favorite nail polish for fall? and which one of these 5 do you prefer?
Let me know in the comments.
