BAFTA 2015

So, the BAFTAs came at the same date as the Grammys. Not a good idea. LOLz. Anyways, it was subdued but the best of the best gowns were on point.

See the gowns here. Not a lot actually. So, here it goes.

Lea Seydoux in Prada- Clearly the best dressed. Prada has always been hit or miss on the red carpet but when Lea is being dressed in Prada, it's always the best. Miuccia must really love her so much because THIS IS AMAZING!!!!! The color, the cutouts, the fabric, the Lea, the Seydoux, PERFECT!!!

Felicity Jones in Dior Couture - Now I'm partial to this dress because when I saw this on the Spring 2013 couture runway, I was like "I Want Marion to wear this." To my disappointment, she didn't. See how it looks like, Marion? IT'S FIERCE! But she was my best dressed at the BAFTAs with that yellow Dior couture number.

 Diana Agron in Lanvin - I wanted to love this had it not been by the fact that this was just a change of fabric from Kim K's 2014 MET Gala look.

 Natalie Dormer in Sophie Kah - Great dress but girl, we all know Madonna's the only one that can rock gloves on the red carpet.

 Amy Adams in Lanvin - Ethereal chic. Love the belt!

 Keira Knightley in Giambattista Valli Couture - I am baffled by the fact that Keira is not slaying the maternity look game. I thought she would've killed it. I guess Blake put on such high standards. 

 Rosamund Pike in Roland Mouret - Huge fit issues. And so bland.

 Reese Witherspoon in Stella McCartney - Love the color. Hate the boob part.

Julianne Moore in Tom Ford - MOTHER HAS ARRIVED! Love this! Although to be honest, I am quite underwhelmed by Julianne's red carpet choices. You're the clear winner, get into it and slay, honey! 

 Eddie Redmayne and Hannah Bagshawe in Valentino - Is it me or is that dress one size too big. Or is she pregnant? Eddie looks dapper as always. 

Douglas Booth in Dunhill - ah the velvet blazer. Let's face it, even if he's not wearing clothes (especially when he's not wearing clothes) Douglas is a panty creamer!

Beyonce in Prada

Beyonce and Jay-Z went on a 22-day vegan diet just cause. Anyways, I find it weird that while going to vegan restaurants she wore leather pieces in animal prints. Kinda hypocritical don't you think? Well who am I to judge? I love meat. Although I've tried vegan restaurants and some are quite good. Maybe you can check them out. Nothing wrong with that. So here she is in a cow print sweater from Givenchy PreFall 2013 and some amazing Prada Fall 2013 sunglasses!

Prada 09Q sunglasses (SPR 09Q)
I have talked about these pair before saying they are inspired by the Miu Miu Noir. I will not retract that because it does. BUT I LOVE THEM! Haven't tried them on but I love the shape. It's a great cateye/wayfarer hybrid. I adore it! I already have a long list of Prada sunglasses on my wishlist and it looks like I'm adding another pair. HAIST! POVERTY!

I am so in love with it, I am giving it 5 out of 5 stars - PERFECT! PERFECTO! MAGNIFIQUE!

Go buy them at Otticanet here.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE! SPREAD THE LOVE AND JOY! ;D

Paris Hilton in Prada

Yes. Paris Hilton is still alive. And she's still making appearances. She was interviewed by Alexa Chung for the release of her new single, Good Time featuring Lil Wayne. From the photo, I think you know that this one is from Prada right? :)

Prada SPR 04PS



I like this. This is from the Portrait collection. And it's because I love cat eyes. I also want this soooooo bad. Prada consistently brings it on the eyewear game. This one can be paired with your cocktail dress and go on a night out (yes even with shades on) or dress up your tee+ jeans combo. Buy them here.

PRADA RECYCLES FROM MIU MIU

It's my birthday month! Yay!

Anyways, I just noticed something fom the Prada Eyewear Fall 2013 collection... THEY LOOK LIKE FREAKIN' MIU MIU'S!

Now, I know that Miu Miu and Prada are made by the same designers but I think it's a bit too soon. Actually, this has happened before. But, the fact that the Miu Miu sunglasses are now very iconic and spotted everywhere, they need to be careful. Anyway, see the similarities....

Here are the original photos. Photos found from prada.com and Google Images.

 

Despite that, I would gladly buy all of them. Haha.

Up next, my search for my "iconic" sunglasses. You know, the sunglasses that I will be wearing for years. Please don't expect Ray-Ban. Thanks! Haha!

PRADA AND MIU MIU FALL 2013 ADVERTISING CAMPAIGN

So you know that I love the Prada and Miu Miu campaigns right? They're always creative and makes you buy their clothes (at least I do. Haha!)

And now for Fall 2013, Prada is having an audition for I guess an actress role while Miu Miu dances to the beat (Georgia May shows her "Moves Like Jagger" LOL)

MIU MIU:


But when it comes to dancing, no one can defeat Raquel Zimmerman and Karen Elson dancing to Pitbull for Lanvin Fall 2011.

kthanksbye. :D

FREJA BEHA IS BACK!

No one could ever forget Freja, the girl that had 5 consecutive Chanel campaigns that captured the hearts of every designer. She was the Jil Sander girl (and now that Raf Simons is in Dior, he should consider Freja as the Dior girl). She was out of the radar for a few seasons, came back with a Bottega Veneta campaign and extended her Valentino Valentina Fragrance contract, became a Maybelline girl and now, I am hoping she will be back (I'm not counting on runway return) but more campaign wise as she is one of the faces of Prada (alongside Christy Turlington) and on the cover of Vogue UK August 2013.

So what do you guys think? Is Freja Beha back or is it just a momentary comeback? I'm hoping she is back for good landing 2-3 campaign per season and occasional Vogue covers. :)

GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE

This was at the premiere of "The Great Gatsby" in New York.  If you're a fashionphile, you know that Anna Wintour and Marc Jacobs are both big Prada fans. And, captured by Teen Vogue editor-in-chief Amy Astley captured this moment and shared this on Instagram.

They both donned the floral print fur coat from Prada's Spring 2013 collection. Each had a different approach. As expected from Anna, she did it classically pairing it with a dress (which I bet is Prada too) and her fave nude Manolo Blahnik kitten heels. While Marc had a quirkier approach (would steal his style if I had that coat as well). He paired it with black jeans, sneakers, and printed socks.

Who wore it better? Anna? or Marc? :D

In honor of Coachella

I don't know if I'll ever attend Coachella. The fact that it's in USA and I'm in the Philippines. But maybe I'll fit right in there. My music taste is all over the place. I can go dance, pop, rock, alternative and I'm loving indie. Not that I'm going hipster, I don't care if people discovered it first. Music is all about sharing. Haha!


Anyway, for "casual Friday" which I turn to "Fashion Fridays," I was inspired by Coachella. Here it is. :)

 Be a holy fool with this necklace from Mental. ;)

 Tied a bandana wrist band. Simple way of adding edge to your already rocker vibe. Hehe!

Oxygen Tee, F&H Distressed Jeans, Dean and Trent Jacket, Jeremy Scott x Swatch, Jack Purcell RED sneakers, Mental necklace, Les Biches x Prada Sunglasses

Hype my look on Lookbook my darlings!

You can fan me, too!

Hype my other looks as well while you're at it! 

Give me all your luvin'

Much love

xoxo

★M-ness★! ;) 

 

 

PRADA SPRING 2013 VIDEO CAMPAIGN

Now, this is the most awaited part of Prada campaigns, the video part. It started with Spring 2010 and revolutionized high fashion campaign (as Prada always does)

I know you've seen the runway show. Full of flowers, Japanese influence and those shoes. So it's up to the video campaign to make you lust for the collection. Remember Spring 2011? I super hated the collection except for the sunglasses and the shoes and the video made me love the whole collection. My fave so far is Spring 2012.

So, with all the flowers in the collection, it's quite appropriate that flowers was the topic of the campaign. I must say, I love Sasha Pivovarova in this. Even in motion, she's fierce and adorable!!! Watch the video and tell me if you get the meaning of the video. I've watched it countless times and still I don't get it. Tell me if you do. Haha!

Spring 2013 Fashion Week in a Nutshell

First of all, I'm sorry that it took me one week to post again. Haha! Been very busy lately but don't worry, I'm still making sure to perform my blogging duties. :)

I'm sure all you fashionphiles out there know what happened this fashion week. This fashion week has more drama than any fashion week ever with a lot of debuts since last season had a lot of "departures."

Let's highlight the special events of the season: (Photos from style.com)

1. Liberty at Alexander Wang- Liberty Ross shocked everyone when she walked at NYFW particularly Alexander Wang. And as a closer, Wang showed glow in the dark dresses! Perfect for those parties huh?

2. THE SUPE IS HERE! - Naomi Campbell opens Zac Posen's show.

3.  Burberry goes metallic- Burberry went with metallics in a lot of hues! Way to go Christopher Bailey! :)

4. Prada is turning Japanese - after the art deco collection, Miuccia Prada showed an array of Japanese inspired dresses completed with floral prints, floral sunglasses, and those shoes to die for!

5. Jil Sander is back at Jil Sander- Jil Sander is back at her own label and made sure she's back.

6. Beth Ditto performs for Versus

7. Hakaan lost his collection- This is very devastating. As in THE WHOLE COLLECTION WAS LOST IN TRANSPORT! If it was stolen, shame on you! :(

8. People of fashion vs Cathy Horyn- Cathy Horyn was banned from the Saint Laurent show and Oscar de la Renta also had his share with Cathy Horyn. This one's a hot highlight! :)

9. Raf Simons debut RTW for Dior - J'adore this collection! It's a departure from his Jil Sander line but still has that Dior taste! :)

10.  Hedi for SLP - Hedi Slimane showed his debut collection for Saint Laurent. He squeezed the DNA of Saint Laurent. There were a lot of wearable clothes and it has promise.

11. The buzz at McQueen - Literally! The bee is here! Haha! I SUPER LOVE IT! :D

12. Chanel hula-hoops to the beach-each! - Chanel surely updated its bag to the maxima!

13. Checkerboards for you, Stripes for me- Marc Jacobs and his collection for Louis Vuitton always has this sense of continuity and it was further strengthened with this season's collection.

14. Celine is in! Fur for spring? Only by Celine!

What was your highlight of the season?
