summertime

Summertime...and the living is easy.

Summer always smells like freshly-cut grass for me.

And rain. 

Last week of summer vacation. 

Not so much of vacation for me. 

I've been an intern the whole summer.

I suppose the lazy, rain-splashing, cricket-hunting 

summer days are far behind now.

Random question:

What does summer smell like for you?

genius

Even though those Givenchy earrings + piercing look rather painful, 

we can't deny they look awesome.

Givenchy Haute Couture is always pure genius.

One for the road...

Don't forget to take one for the road!

You can purchase art prints, framed art prints, 

iPhone cases and other stuff of some of my illustrations this way.

And there are more coming soon!

Mixing it up a little.

Oh, mi Dior...

I was one to really mourn Galliano's departure from Dior. 

His designs were pure genius and his runways were just raw drama. 

Can you imagine a movie directed by him? I sure do. 

After he left, we all know Dior had not been as good as it used to be, 

until the recent debut of Raf Simmons. 

His collection was simple but it still reeked of Dior 

with his new-and more architectural approach- 

to the iconic New Look,and of course, the flower-clad walls.

My favorite was this pale pink dress mis-matched with the blue heels.

Eveeeen though the  face came out kinda weird. 

What did you think of Raf Simmons's approach?

Blogger series: Chiara Ferragni, Take One.

Chiara's sequined leggings were the best pretext 

to experiment with my new silver sharpie.

The color combination in that outfit is genius. 

What do you think?

Love this look: laid-back yet cool. 

And that sweater looks so comfy, 

but still the clutch  dresses it up a little.

What do you think?

Red dress, take two.

I'm sort of having an affair with red lately. 

I already posted a red dress illustration a couple weeks ago, 

but truth be told, I like this one so much better. 

Hope you like it.
