Alexa Chung for AG

AG
The beautiful British style icon Alexa Chung collaborates with L.A. based denim brand AG Jeans on her 20 pieces capsule collection that add on a new title under her name beside of being a model and television personality. Inspired by late 60s and early 70s, Alexa brought her favourite retro style influence to life. I guess no one would complain about the flexibility of the collection because denim pieces has the magic to define a period but never out of a trend. Scroll down for the collection cookbook and find your favourites. Mine? I would say the Honey Off-The-Shoulder dress right below!

Fresh & hot! That’s right, I am talking about the new leading lady of latest Burberry campaign, the 19 years old beauty Hannah Dodd. The golden girl stepped into the Burberry crew after Rosie Huntington and Cara Delevingne, and luncky enough to be the next face of the UK. I’m loving the Burberry tulle that she pulls off in the campaign dancing and twirling in a drizzle romantic night, unveiled the beauty beyond the trench.

A few quick shots taken after an afternoon hangout, the highlight is that Aldo slides  which I thought I will never own one until I was overwhelmingly obsessed with its eye catching golden hologram bands. They are giving my toes a little bit of air in this heat with a touch of ugly-prettiness, topped with this peachy dress that ensemble with the warmth under the sun. Totally dressed as will for a day-out.

CONVERSE FAHO 2014

IMG_0509 IMG_0520 IMG_0522 IMG_0512 IMG_0513 IMG_0528 IMG_0530 IMG_0518

Speaking about sneakers trend, it has been a flash hit from affordable slip-ons to lush designer sneakers while one of the legend CONVERSE remains a forever classic from its All Star to Jack Purcell collections. CONVERSE introduced new Back Zip and Tri Zip on Chuck Taylor All Star which implies distressed washes and contemporary graphic prints. The other side Chuck Taylor All Star ’70 launched a series of funky animal prints but seriously CONVERSE by John Varvatos One Star consolidated the highlight covered by a transparent rubber sole is the hip having the most welcome. Without any spontaneous favourite, leather sneaker is preferable than any other materials else as they look fine with a stylish taste especially like this fall Jack Purcell is re-outfitted with sophisticated leather and detailed cross-stitches design. So, talking about my favourite pick from the fall over all, the CONS Aerojam it is. They stand out from collection like Darth Vadar and Storm Trooper. Wicked.

This kind of paint is waterproof and slightly elastic. May be you can drop a pair of CONVERSE into the paint and curate your very own CONs next time.

PONY recalls some memories of mine back in the days when my life is just all about dancing. Its kicks give an urban retro spirits of the Big Apple culture out-stands from fashion attire. Materials being use, chic design and signature street style became the brand’s essentials nowadays, the true kicks designed for counterculture.

The very first time adding my footprints on Vietnam and it was a shooting trip with renowned travel magazine U Magazine. 10 days, 3 cities, 6 stars resort and only 3 of us. Been through dehydrated from diarrhea, climbed up ladder on a cliff to get the best shot, catching up schedule under the heat and rain, and yet got to relax and experience in luxury resorts and spas behind the scene was defo worth for the whole trip. Guess what? The best Pho Bo I had for this time is probably the one in Intercontinental Nha Trang, a deluxe version of course. One of the best part is playing with different Juicy Couture styles coherent to the shooting venue, it was so appropriate bringing the true California heir to Vietnam’s resort paradise! Plus the very best part of this time, I AM ON THE COVER. Here you go.

Go white with the pugs

Someday in a sunny day, or literally the whole summer is the white-perfect season. Though going all white can be quite hesitating sometimes, to play in a safe mode, I’d put together white items with different patterns. This Zara geometric skirt came in so handy in all situations which you may find it extremely rewearable on me, and so as to the cobalt blue 3.1 Phillip Lim mini Pashli. Was also playing a funny match with my Anna-Karin Karlsson meow meow sunnies with Monki pugs monogram top. Yea, I put cat and dog together. Fashion goes without boundaries right?
