Brooklyn's drastic chop

Brooklyn Decker (also known as Andy Roddick's wife) chopped off almost 10 inches off her long blonde hair recently. For those who don't know who Brooklyn Decker is, she's a model turned tennis player's wife turned actress (she was in just go with it) and let's face it she's pretty damn hot. If I can't have Andy Roddick at least i've lost him to someone as hot as her.
So getting back to the haircut i actually quite approve of this bob do on her
makes her look less typical pretty face-d model and brings out more of her personality in my opinion
I think it's short and fun which is perfect for summer.

my laptop's accessory

I’ve been looking for a nice laptop case or bag for some time now and the fact that I have a 13 inch macbook only makes it harder because most stores only have the 15 inch or the 10 inch ones
So yesterday after my final submission I decided to go shopping to look for a dress for my 21st bday party (which is in less than 2 weeks and I haven’t found anything yet! *Panic*)


So one of my destinations to look for a dress was Forever New (http://www.forevernew.com.au/collections) and although they had some cute outfits I didn’t find a dress I liked
BUT
I found this laptop bag and fell in love
So I went in the store looking for a dress but ended up buying a laptop bag instead. At least my shopping trip wasn’t all gone to waste

Fashion For Relief


Naomi Campbell’s Fashion for Relief charity auction fashion show was held in Cannes, to raise money for the Japanese Red Cross. She teamed up with Bruce Forsyth and the catwalk was filled with supermodels and stars.

Naomi wore dresses by Yves Saint Laurent, Marchesa and Alexander McQueen.


This one's an Alexander McQueen dress from their SS 2011 collection

This dress is just so beautifully detailed 


The models, including Yasmine Le Bond, Karolina Kurkova and Victoria Silvstedt, wore dresses by designers Lanvin, Valentino, Jean Paul Gaultier, Sonia Rykiel and a few others. These are my favourite picks:

This is probably my favourite colour on a dress. It's simply amazing; I'm in love with this colour

I was never particularly fond of yellow to be honest, but lately I've been drawn to so many yellow dresses and now I'm determined to purchase one. 

This gown screams elegance, i really like the feel of separation that the beige creates between the top and bottom.


Jane Fonda closed the show wearing this gorgeous gold Marchesa evening gown. 

Simply beautiful, graceful and elegant. loving the shoulders.

California wishin...that house was mine


“California King Bed,” is the new single from Rihanna’s platinum album ‘Loud’ and was directed by Anthony Mandler in Los Angeles.
I’m in love with the glass pavilion-type of house shown as her bedroom in the video
I just kept focusing on that throughout the video (maybe its just the interior designer in me) but I screen captured some shots and voila! Here they are:






 And I don’t know about you guys but I think I’m over the bright, fiery red hair. It’s so unnatural and I get she was going for the shock tactic and trying something different but its time to try something else now! Even though I have to admit this video was the only time I didn’t mind the hair that much, because it was nicely styled and the colour kind of went with the colour scheme of the video so it worked out I suppose; but other than that…it has to go.
