Calories Control Freak? Use The Diet Plates!
October 5th, 2010 by kpriss
Aren’t you tired of looking for the calories info in the menu? Aren’t you feeling dizzy from doing the calories math? I would, especially before eating! Two young designers have thought about that and they decided to give us a hand by inventing the preproportioned dinner plates!
Rui Pereira and Haftstein Juliusson’s plates collection for HAF recall the famous wheel of nutrition declined in three types: Diet, Extra Ordinary and Supersize. You have all the information you need on the very back of the plate! It’s an easy, colorful alternative to complicated calculations of calories number and proportions! I’d love me a set, definitely, how about you? (HAF via dqd)
Lara Stone’s Vogue UK November 2010 (+ December 2009)
October 5th, 2010 by kpriss
How’s that possible? If I only had a hint of what was going to happen, I would have hold on to that Vogue Paris story and today a side by side comparison would have seen the light of Stylefrizz. Oh well…
October 2010 was Lara Stone’s Vogue Paris month – Vogue UK has her on the November 2010 cover, as photographed by Alasdair McLellan (should we expect a Vogue US December 2010 cover? Just for the fun of it). Clearly worlds apart from the unsubtle Vogue Paris cover, Lara Stone’s bleached eyebrows look feels much more familiar. Plus Britain is her official home now, following her marriage, so a next-girl-look was more than appropriate. It’s a good cover, irreproachable, however in no particular way outstanding. In its own posh, quiet way, Vogue UK brings on the celebrity, don’t you think? (click through to discover more images, click here for the gallery!) (photos via)
The Levi’s Double Denim Onesie
October 4th, 2010 by kpriss
You know there’s just one thing I think about when looking at this Levi’s jeans Onesie: pregnancy jeans dungarees! I can’t help it, it’s that time of the pregnancy when all I can see and feel is my huge belly. And the simple thought of getting that into a dungaree gives me the chills – it flatters no silhouette whatsoever, especially the pregnant one! So basically I always thought bad things about the jeans dungarees. Not anymore, though!
Looking at the new Levi’s double denim onesie, I feel my heart overflowing with fashion hope! Sure the model looks slender as a stick, much unlike my current frame (though I keep my style hopes up given we’re the same height 5’9.5”/176cm). Maybe I could pull that one day! (sure, the model wears a UK size 8/S, which is a long run from my current frame, however, it doesn’t hurt to have a heart filled with fashhope, does it?). How about you, would you wear the Levi’s onesie? Not? Why would you or wouldn’t you? (the onesie is available for $193,78)
Original Wedding Ring: Lego Wedding Ring
October 4th, 2010 by kpriss
I once read a study saying that most grown ups remember the Lego pieces they had when they were children. However, among all those fond, loving Lego memories, there’s something else that prevails and holds a comfortable first position in the memories top: the pain of having stepped on a Lego piece. Have you experienced that? I bet you have! And I also bet the pain you felt hasn’t faded from your memory!
How about a Lego piece you can’t stumble upon? One that you’ll carry forever and ever, till death do you part? Yep, someone thought about making a Lego wedding ring! And even if it doesn’t cross my aesthetics, I have to admit it’s a pretty nifty idea and it would definitely make the delight of the couple’s children. Not to mention the rounds of the Interwebs! How do you like it? (via)
Versace Spring Summer 2011 Collection
October 4th, 2010 by kpriss
How do I put this elegantly… Versace Spring Summer 2011 collection felt like a collection designed for old mademoiselles. Is it diplomatic enough? No? Well, it’s the best I can do, really! Have you seen the collection?
Donatella Versace is a fine spirited woman and she takes good care of her business. Each one of the models sent on the runway was wearing an almost exact replica of what Donatella would wear or has already worn. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, it’s just that this fine fashlady thinks she has/will never age. So she dresses accordingly. Did I like the models? Yes I did (not as much as I did Dolce & Gabbana’s collection, anyway). Would I wear any? Not necessarily. Would you? (click through to see the video; photos of the entire collection here)
S By Shakira, The Perfume
October 4th, 2010 by kpriss
Did you know Shakira had a perfume coming up? Her first one! Called S by Shakira is inspired by the singer’s search for “happiness, bliss and well-being”.
Shakira‘s perfume bottle, however, was what drew my attention in the first place. Sunny and round, the bottle really looks like the promise of a fulfillment, with no cap, but a golden fulfillment none the less. With top notes of Sambac Jasmine, middle notes of sandalwood and base notes of amber and vanilla, the perfume comes across as sweet and heavily oriental. You’ll find the new S by Shakira in 80ml and 50ml Natural Spray EDT, 150ml Deodorant Spray and 150ml Silky Body Lotion. Could make an interesting gift for the upcoming season, couldn’t it? Either way, I stick to my original thought – the bottle looks rather sensational, doesn’t it? (Shakira beauty via tD)
Celebrities, Fragrances, Gift Ideas, Unstyle
The New Hippie Fashion
October 4th, 2010 by kpriss
Now I remember reading somewhere that the honorable Daisy Lowe was convinced she was born in the wrong age and that she felt completely hippie (and that just because she likes wearing long, flowy dresses and flowers in her hair! Some fashcoordinates can really mess your karma!) .
Now if all of you out there feeling like miss Daisy Lowe would stop a moment and take a look at the image below you’ll see that a modern interpretation of the hippie mood is always available. For those who are not afraid of looking like a candy bowl with flowers on top, here’s what you need to do: (My2ssl via c-c)
Lara Stone’s Vogue Paris October 2010, 90th Anniversary Issue
October 4th, 2010 by kpriss
As moths go by and fasheditorials ensue, I feel there’s little space left where I go run and hide from Lara Stone and her “iconic” fashlook. She’s the great new find, she’s the greatest thing that happened to fashion magazines since Kate Moss. Now can you please take her out of my face?
It may be just my old fashioned self talking, however, I would have been immensely delighted if Carine Roitfeld would have opted for a more subtle aesthetic when it comes to Lara Stone. Sure, that’s not the way Vogue Paris operates. Especially not for their 90th anniversary issue, October 2010. Oh, no! Let’s make it masque, the world will surely rejoice celebrating the excess we’re pretending to live on! (more images right after the jump!)
