COAT OF LIGHT- SOPHIE HULME

IS THIS THE PERFECT COAT FOR PEOPLE WHO SALIVATED OVER THE PREEN TROUSERS MADE OF WHAT MAY PERHAPS BE THE EXACT SAME FABRIC...?

HERES AN ALTERNATIVE OPTION FROM SOPHIE HULME... I SAY 'ALTERNIVE' BUT AN ALLOVER TONAL BLUE SEQUIN COAT AND TROUSER COMBINATION COULD LOOK AT NA-TU-REL AS THE GLITTERY OCEAN ITSELF!

WATCH THIS ...MC MONG-CIRCUS

MC MONG- camp rap?

Just stumbled across this piece of pop wonder from this South-Korean rap artist which sort of reminds me of Nsync's videos of days gone by (no strings/pop)- but you know they threw in the towel so perhaps Mong is going to take over the international gap in the market. ITS EVEN PARTLY TRNSLATED JUST FOR US ENGLISH SPEAKERS. Watch all his other videos on youtube (because christmas= time all over the hands) - its incedible how the stylists just neglect all the women ever featured!- luckily MONG makes up for it though.

MANISH ARORA'S INDIAN CIRCUS

The illustrative quality of the surface design is just completely adorable in this collection- which you will recognise if you saw Katy Perry's outfits from the MTV awards. The blue and Green zoo dress makes me want to quilt baby blankies for a living... this idea lasting for at least a few minutes! I hope colour sticks around for a while... for if it does Indian fashion week is going to creep up and all over Womenswear Daily and American Apparell will ride right over the wave of recession- and keep all those happy mexican expats in L.A employed (i hear)... the future is not ours to see- que sera!
