I think it is pretty obvious that I am obsessed with hair, judging from how much time I spend on it. A good hairstyle and a well made-up face dresses up a plain outfit more than any single accessory can ever hope to do. It’s a personal pet peeve of mine to see someone with an immaculate outfit with lank and greasy hair – why bother putting in so much effort to dress nicely, only to neglect your personal appearance? To me that’s akin to wearing a chanel suit set with slippers.

That said, here are some of the hairstyles I am eager to try out this summer.

Loose waves ala Chloe Fall 2010. Perfect with a loose summery dress, and it wouldn’t look the least bit out of place in the Fall as well.

Marcel waves inspired by Dior. I have always wanted to try 1920′s inspired finger waves, but they are so hard to style! I think nothing channels elegance and timelessness like this hairstyle does. I wish I could turn back time and go to prom with perfect marcel waves.

I am sure I am not the only person that has to deal with frizzy hair during summer time. Take a cue from Proenza Schouler and make it work to your advantage!

A tousled updo like Chanel’s is elegant and casual at the same time. I prefer to do my hair up in summer – it helps me cool down so much, and you don’t have worry about hair plastering to your neck in this humid weather. Gross.

Updos are perfect for drawing attention to hair accessories too!

Alexander Wang’s braids could never get old. I truly intend on trying this out soon – it’s been long enough!

I would rather kill myself and my cat before watching The Hills, but I can’t ignore Lauren Conrad and her immaculate hair. Sure, it most likely takes a team of stylists and the best extensions money can buy to have hair like hers, but I can dream, right?

Not even gonna lie- I would do anything to have hair like hers. It’s pretty much perfect.

Who are your hairspirations? Do you think it’s okay to blog about hair and makeup, or should we just stick to clothes?

So L.A Times Magazine has came up with a list of 50 bags they considered signature bags and it’s illustrated by Jameson Simpson.

Bags are my other favorite fashion accessory besides shoes. I’ve picked out 9 out of the 50 that I really love. Maybe someday I’d own all of them. A girl can dream can’t she?

The full list can be seen in this article. as seen from joy.nu

At this point, right about everyone and their mom has written about Taylor Momsen. I like Taylor Momsen, despite what everyone says about her eyeliners and garters and I like GossipGirl. THERE I’VE SAID IT~!!! Don’t judge me!

Some say her style may be repetitive and boring…even predictable after awhile but hey~!! We wear what suits us most right?

I’m jealous of that long blonde hair and copious amount of eyeliner she can pull off. I’d just look like some wailing bride who’s been left standing at the altar.

And it’s pretty obvious she enjoys wearing black but that’s not why we like her so much. *shifty eyes* (okay maybe that’s ONE of the factors.)

I love that she pays attention to her accessories too.

So here we try and replicate her look:

  • Dress: Supreme Cotton Tiered Sleeveless Dress by Acne
  • Shrug: Maison Martin Margiela Spider Web Shrug
  • Stockings: House of Holland
  • Shoes: Alexander Wang ‘Freja’ Lace-Up Boot
  • Bag: Proenza Schouler PS1-C-1 Medium, Lux Leather
  • Rings: Alexander McQueen, nOir, kabiri
  • Bracelet: Leather Thorn from Ann Demeulemeester

What do you think of Taylor Momsen’s look? Hate it or love it?

It’s been long since I had a “what’s in my bag” post. Owing to the fact that my bags aren’t all that exciting. I’ve been looking for a decent bag for a long time. The Proenza Schouler PS1 is high on my list, unfortunately that bag and my purse strings can’t get along and I settled for a decent lookalike from Country Road instead.

I wish it was bigger so it can contain my Macbook. Goes to show that I can’t have everything in life.  Enough of the bag.

Up till this point while staring at the picture, I think you would only notice that orange Tide pen. Since everything else is black, it makes it a pain to look for stuff in that black abyss of things. Why there is a Tide pen is an even bigger mystery since most of my clothes are black and I don’t need to remove stains from them immediately anyway.

Anyway, here’s the stuff that’s in there:

  • Country Road Bag
  • Name card case with monoxious name cards in there
  • iPhone 3GS
  • m)phosis bag organiser with my makeup stash
  • Moleskine notebook (loads of ideas in there)
  • Fashionary notebook
  • Louis Vuitton Wallet
  • Totes mini umbrella (almost used to death)
  • Foldable headphones (ingenious designnnnn~!!!)
  • and *ahem* Tide Pen

And now I wanna know what’s in YOUR bag. Post it in your blog and leave a trackback here.
