This Week's Fabulosity: Roland Mouret

It's Black Friday!
So today is every fashionista's feast. Be a vision in lush jungle-green
at your next black-tie event with Roland Mouret's flowing crepe-jersey gown.





Artfully draped with cascading panels to create a soft and modern
silhouette, this sweeping design is certain to win you style points.

Complement the asymmetric neckline with a shot of glitter.
And Christian Louboutin's gold-stitched leather pumps are a fun
yet classic approach. Crystal-embellished clutch by Lanvin.

Fashion meets Literature: Olympia Le-Tan

What's your favorite classic novel?
Great Expectations by Charles Dickens? Or perhaps A Midnight
Summer's Dream by William Shakespeare?

What if I told you can take those books everywhere with you?
Because designer Olympia Le-Tan turns books into bags.


The clutches marries fashion and literature to beautiful effect.
Sure to be a conversation starter!



How incredibly cute!
Which literary classic would you like to see immortalized?



A very chic way to add the finishing touch to your casual daily
outfit or gorgeous gown.

This Week's Fabulosity: Christian Louboutin

Do you hear it as well? The 'Hallelujah' chorus?
I'm mesmerised with these show-stopping Christian Louboutin 'Vampanodo' sandals.
Elegant designs with a playful twist are what Christian Louboutin does best,
and these are a fabulous example.

The back of the sandals is just as stunning - pink, satin bows balance beautifully above the heel. This statement pair beautifully contrast soft blush sateen with tactile black suede. Sure make for an enviably chic cocktail look!






There's also a matching ribbon-adorned suede clutch, or you can slip into the
jet-black, identical stiletto pair. Which ever you prefer!

This Week's Fabulosity: Marc Jacobs

Drawing inspiration from Marie Antoinette and exaggerated pannieres from
the 18th century, Marc Jacobs creates this impeccably crafted wool-twill dress
for his FW12 collection. The fitted bodice of this cream piece opens up into a
voluminous pintucked skirt, creating a boldly feminine shape.



I'm a sucker for a feminine, white dress. Along with a poofy skirt is sure to be
on top of my Fall favorite list. I would keep the accessories minimal with a
neutral-tone clutch and let the strong silhouette speak for itself.



And to complete this dream-worthy ensemble, I would wear them with
Charlotte Olympia's red crepe-covered leather sandals. A cheetah-head
detail makes this pair a glamorous way to embrace this season's
safari-inspired trend.

This Week's Fabulosity: Oscar de la Renta

Oscar de la Renta's black neoprene thigh boots are a footwear must with a tactile twist. I purchased my first over-the-knee boots last winter and I'm completely in love with the thigh boots trend.




These slip on boots caught my eye because they're almost identical to mine. I think they are a super stylish way to make a statement. I love the elegant pointed toe and sharp stiletto heel.

And these are my over-the-knee boots:
I took these pictures right before a night of clubbing,
I don't usually wear such provocative tights, hihi just so you know!

This Week's Fabulosity: MICHAEL Michael Kors

I can never resist stopping and trying on Michael Kors' bags in front of the
mirror to see how every color matches my outfit whenever I see them in a
store. And their 'Hamilton' tote is one of my favorites.

From cobalt to cornflower, blues ruled this season's runways, and MICHAEL
Michael Kors' bold turquoise tote is a super chic way to tap the tonal trend.
Luxe gold hardware and subtle structure lend this leather piece polish.



Carry it with neutrals - think a white tee and beige trench coat - for
round-the-clock cool. Other 'Hamilton' bags:

This Week's Fabulosity: Charlotte Olympia

I'll be the first to admit that I don't like platform pumps (Manolo Blahnik agrees with me).
I think they look a bit tacky, cheap and classless, not to mention they make your calves look
like they're carrying water-weight. And I haven't caved in to buying them for all these years
they've been popular. But I'm having second thoughts to my dismay of platforms due to
these sky-high Charlotte Olympia pumps. They are a sight to be seen for sure.



The half-Brazilian, half-English designer's creations are inspired by the glamour of the 1940's,
and her statement-making sandals have proved a hit with style-setters such as
Olivia Palermo and Sarah Jessica Parker.



Do you dare to take a walk on the wild side in these leopard-print calf hair pumps?
This glamorous pair are part of the designer's Bride collection and come with lace-trimmed
stockings to complement the duck-egg leather finish - a way to wear "something blue" on the wedding day.

This Week's Fabulosity: Zac Posen

Zac Posen's Spring/Summer collection is a masterful celebration of
show-stopping silhouettes, and this burgundy silk-faille dress was
a stand-out piece from the show.





A boned, fitted bodice elegantly balances the couture-like flared skirt - note
the sheer silk-chiffon trims that give this fabulous piece a delicate finish.




This treasure has everything a woman could want in a dress: rich bordeaux color,
a wide, flared skirt and a strapless bodice.

Paired perfectly with Christian Louboutin's 'Sexy Strass' 100 Swarovski crystal
peep-toe pumps, to add the trademark glossy red soles.

This Week's Fabulosity: Miu Miu

Miu Miu's fabulous heels never fail to get my heart racing, and this
season's plaid slingbacks definitely don't disappoint.



The bow backs will turn heads at cocktail hour.
I'm a sucker for anything with bows.

I would wear these fabulously fun pumps with this Antonio Berardi's
striking royal-blue dress.



These Miu Miu 'Gingham' taffeta slingbacks are available in three colors.

This Week's Fabulosity: Christian Louboutin

Mr. Louboutin has done it again! Always seeking the bounderies between
sexy shoes and fetish-like shoes, these 12 cm heels just spell out the obvious:
S-E-X.

These standout shoes feature the letters 'S', 'E' and 'X' adorned with
shimmering crystals for maximum impact. A bold statement for sure!



I definitely see "look at how shocking I am" celebrities like Rihanna and
Taylor Momsen wearing these. But given them for free, I would rock them!



To add an air of sophistication to them, I would wear them with this
silk-chiffon Notte by Marchesa dress. The rich purple hue ensures
it's an elegantly standout outfit, not tacky.
