Alexander McQueen

Fall 2009 collection RTW













































































































If you haven't noticed, i'm usually attracted to designers who use a lot of color and patterns, and honestly I think that the black and red this is soooo over done, but i really like his stuff! The last two dresses i wouldn't be surprised to see it on the red carpet or something :P
aaaand, i would definitely rock that first dress! and the Jacket on the second girl looks so cute!


more later!

Another person to Love.

I realized i'm not as happy and inspired when i am home than when I am at school, i haven't even picked up my camera (well actually I did but it was really only once...). I think next summer i will only stay home for a short period of time and just take summer classes. Of course i think i would feel bad about missing out on stuff with church too so we'll see.

Right now i'm trying to find a job with no luck- which i'm upset about because without a job i have no money and without money my wardrobe is bland =/
Summer is not my forte when it comes to my sense of style- half because of the parents (they're pretty conservative) half because i rely on layering more than amazing pieces of clothing. So basically my outfits have been nothing but t-shirts and jeans (eeeeewww)
And to add to that i've gained a whopping 11lbs. this semester so none of my old shorts fit! T_T
(mind you it's not like i've hit 130 yet but i don't think i've ever gained so much weight in my life).

But enough about my insecurities and slightly annoying situation. I have a new person in my life and his name is Bernhard Willhelm :P

I was reading through Vice's Fashion Issue 2009 (ugh- like such a hipster, i knoooooow...)
but they did a little interview with Mr.Willhelm and i looked him up (i could tell by his picture that i would love his work) and i think he's amazing.
The first collection I saw from him was his fall winter 08-09:






















































































I like this collection a lot- i was slightly disappointed with the spring and fall 2009 RTW- i dunno but he's playing with garbage size fabric and tying them up with like a rope...but i found some pieces that i did like somewhat : )

Spring 2009 RTW:





















































Fall 2009 RTW:




































I kind of only like this picture because she has a freaking dollar on her forehead- i mean really???





















































and no, i do not like that thing on her head. I just think that the dress is probably cute without the head peace on it.
Idk, i think the fall collection looks more like a spring collection and vice versa. but I still have faith in him- I'd rather he go bold and over the top than keep it safe and stick with something like oh i dunno- black and gold (see page 2)

Ok, well that' it. I've dedicated like 2.5hrs to this post i think and i'm hungry : )

Miss Sixty is my new Love

Yesterday i was having a conversation with my boss and like i am currently situated in Michigan, he started ranting about all the problems the state was facing. From what i got from him and other Michiganders that i have spoken to, Michigan is a state that has been stabilized by the automotive industry- especially GM. Even before the recession, Michigan had been suffering from job loss and the like. Because of the loss of industry in Michigan we find more of the younger generation going to school here and leaving or just leaving for school and a jobs entirely.
My boss asked me the question 'what do you think is Michigan's biggest money maker now a days?' I said i didn't know and he responded 'exactly! we don't have one. The only other thing that could be a possibility is education.'

I told him that i feel like Michigan should use their education to invest in their young people (eww i sound ooooold :P). For example, if Michigan's good universities make instate tuition low **EDIT* Someone called me out on it so i really meant to say 'made instate tuition EVEN LOWER'*and give their graduating students stepping stones to start building new industries (starting with alternative fuels lets just say...), there would be a nice group of young professionals who now have a reason to stay in Michigan. And that new young work force will be able to start the mending process.

I think Michigan is actually quite lucky that they do have some good schools. I just don't understand why nobody utilizes it! If any country wants to boost their dying economy or to build an economy at all, it has to be through the education of the next generation. but even more than that, that country has to also make sure that generation ends up coming back and using their knowledge to help instill growth in their own nation. The same for any state.


On a lighter note!!!
I was going through my rounds on the Internet and i realized that i absolutely LOVE Miss Sixty
Lemme show u some of her spring collection that caught my eye ^_^:





















































































































































I really like this style- but i'm not exactly sure if it falls into what i was going for...
well i guess it kind of does, there's a lot of white and a lot of flow to the material but it's a little less pastel-ey than what i was thinking...


but that's all from me right now

She's my Idol ^_^

So the past few posts have been very serious and very spaced out. mostly because the times when i did feel like posting something was after a deep thought or a revelation of some kind.

But, going along with my motto. i think one has to always step back from their life hectic lives and just stop for a little while, appreciate the sun that's shinning, the snow that's falling, the rain that's soaking your jeans- let your mind wander, or think nothing at all; take a break!!!! SO! with that being said, i feel like it's time for me to let my mind wonder and as it was wondering, i feel the need to look up pictures of the infamous Agyness Deyn xD **EDIT: So, i guess it's not obvious- Agyness Deyn is a model ;) **

i'm absolutely IN LOVE with her!!! her sense of style is amazing and i love her look and i love...well... everything about her! my goal is to wake up one day and come to the realization that i am a black, shorter version of Agyness =3
Here, proof of the most amazing style ever-

So it's been a while...

School just slapped me in the face this semester. To the point where i did nothing today really but get up, go to chinese class to do a presentation, and passed out after talking to my buddy on skype :P.
I don't really have much to say today but i feel weird knowing that i haven't really updated this thing....

Last night i think I've been bitten by the spring bug because i've just been longing for some warm weather!!! Honestly, I'm not as creative with my outfits when it gets warmer but, i want that all to change this year! so I have decided that there are some staples that i must have in order to enjoy the spring/summer of 2009 Tabby style:

Now i think that i lean more towards having a more whimmsical/ boho/ hippie/ airy look during the warmer weather- lots of pastels (creams, pale pink, pale green, and the like).
inpirations? (warning: i may be reusing a few of these pictures but hey! it's good to recycle ;D)


























































































so that's kind of a taste to what i'm going towards :P
idk, i think i'm just tired of being so blah when it's warm out and the sun is shining, all that light should inspire me! soooo that means more dresses, and sandles, and skirts and blouses and hats, and scarves, and... (well you get my point =3)

Alloy.com has some REALLY cute gladiator sandles that i would just love to own ^_^
when they first came out, i kind of hated these kind of sandles but the look started to grow on me.
i'm also really want a flowy white dress. I kind of like this one here.
I want some nice shorts as well. like i found these cool looking shorts here from uban outfitters but i could probably just make those myself :P (well with my lack of skill you never know...)

alright. so that's just about it...
