In the ambitious fashion world there's no such thing as too much time, is there? As early as in the autumn, fashion week is off the tracks with next spring's high end -must have-too chic too believe- collections.

In the time of financial crisis, it's a little bit depressing for a fashionista to know that these beautiful garments won't ever find it's way into her wardrobe....But here's hoping: What if you magically stumble upon some S-RTW-09 marchesa dresses in a vintage store a few years from now. That would be nice.

Tonight I want to dream that I am a french princess living in a castle. In my castle there's a huge wardrobe filled with evrything you can imagine both vintage and off the racks - Chanel Valentino, Marc Jacobs, Erin Featherston. Moschino, Marchesa, Ginevchy, Oscar de la Renta, phillip lim, louboutin....And oh suddenly one of my closest friends are Patricia Field...And since in my dream it's also my birthday, she gave me the whole sex and the city wardrobe. Cause she just couldn't think of something else to give me you know. Also in this dream I have a "magic chanel flying carpet" which takes my to any part of the world. Its probably for my heavenly shopping spree tour.

In this perfect dream I'm also just casually having lunch with Karl Lagergeld, Zac Posen and the Olsen twins. Because it's just one of those days were you have nothing else to do than discuss trends and gossip- and everything materialistic and superficial I guess.

OMG I'm to superficial.....I should probably take a sip of water and carefully come back down to earth.....But we need those carefree dreams though!!!! We do!!!

Halloween-----THE Day to dress yourself -----and do go the extra mile with your outfit....

I didn't think of halloween when I drew these...But I figured they look a bit halloweeny.

Hope everyone have a dressy & scary Halloween!... =)

Fashion is my playground <3 <3

Bill Blass - "Style is primarily a matter of instinct."

I think each designer has their own genuine fashion philosophy. Staying true to it is maybe one of the reasons for the great success some designers have had.
So here's some designer quotes:

Vivienne Westwood :
-"Fashion is very important. It is life enhancing and, like everything that gives pleasure, it is worth doing well."

Giorgio Armani:
-"The difference between style and fashion is quality."

Gianni Versace:
-"In the past, people were born royal. Nowadays royalty comes from what you do."

Halston:
-"You are only as good as the people you dress."

Manolo Blahnik:
-"You put high heels on and you change."

Isaac Mizrahi:
-"Sometimes I'm really dressed up, and it really turns me on."

Karl Lagerfeld:
-"I wanted to become a cartoon artist, a portrait artist, and an illustrator. This was my first idea."

Comfort Gorgeous

In my opinion dressing up is not synonymous with wearing something that only looks great. You can wear something that looks both fabulous and feels comfortable. So free yourself from the "strait-jacket" and wear what looks chic an feels like silk on your skin.

Some like it GOTH....

I think the interpretation of Gothic style seen among fashion designers recently is kinda cool. I like the look, but in a more modest way. I'm not the typical goth girl...more towards the rocker slash femenine style most of the time...But my style is schizophrenic...So I'm open to all influences....
