Beauty and BRAIDS

According to Seventeen's Poll, it is the Best Trend of 2011!!

BRAIDS!

There are different variation of braids some of them are as easy as hell and some of them are really complicated!

1. Fishtail braids - According to wikipedia: "A fishtail braid resembles a French braid in its smoothly woven appearance, but divides the hair into only two sections instead of three. This style was called the "Grecian braid" in the 19th century."

It's really pretty simple.:) I tried it.:)

Fergie, with a perfect fishtail plait.

Rhianna, joining the band wagon with perfect fishtail braids.


 Fearne Cotton rocking that plait with a red lipstick.
 


2. French Braids - Starts from the crown of the head
Alesha Dixon with a sideway french braid

3. Basic English Braids - simplest and most common braid



I love Blake Lively! Any hairstyle would look good on her! She loves braids, it looks good on the runway with her fabulous gown, she wears it with a casual dress and even in Gossip Girl.

Jessica Simpson with uneven braids!



Other celebrities who join this trend!
Kristen Bell

Kim Kardashian

Selena Gomez

The Blazer Buzz

The Upper East Side "IT" girl and the whole cast of GOSSIP GIRL is back!

I spotted a look of SERENA in the 2nd Episode of Season 5: Beauty and The Feast
3rd Episode of Season 5: Jewel of Denial

I've been wanting to have this kind of blazer for a long time now!

Especially when you're in the office and the aircondition is freaking cold! And if you are out, you can opt to fold and sling it in your bag!

So I found two shops that have the most TO-DIE-FOR blazers! www.romwe.com and Forever 21.

Shopping Spree in KL

Kuala Lumpur (KL) is definitely a place to shop!

You just have to plan your visit:
1. Make sure that they are celebrating a holiday!
'coz there will be a huge sale EVERYWHERE!!

2. Make sure that your hotel is near the shopping district!
           We stayed at the Royale Bukit Bintang - www.royalebintang-kualalumpur.com   
Tip: Hotels also have promos and if you are lucky, you can have a FREE night!:)

3. Make sure that you'll spend more than 4 days in KL!
           We spend 4 days in KL and we didn't have that much time, we're always in the rush and that's not a good feeling!

After that, you are ready to shop and shop!

1. The Pavillion: The high class
    Branded bags, shoes, name it its all in this mall!
  • MUST VISIT: Vincci - There shoes are pretty comfortable and they have a really nice collection of accessories! - http://www.padini.com/
2. Berjaya Time Square: The mainstream
    You can't miss this place because it's one of the landmarks in KL. It is considered as the largest mall in Malaysia.
 3. Sungei Wang Plaza : The Thriftshop
     I would like to call this a Thriftshop. The prices are really cheap. Some of the clothes are only 25 ringgit which is about 350 pesos.

These booties are part of Yigal Azrouel's Spring Collection 2012 entitled Cut25.
I've been dying to get my hands on these shoes! It'll be a perfect match if you are wearing shorts, skirts or even a dress. The best thing is there neon color, well not absolutely neon but your not-one-of-your-usual shades of shoes.

I've been trying to find one-of-a-kind booties here in the Philippines but unfortunately we're a little behind when in comes to fashion. Good thing there is the INTERNET. My friend informed me of this multiply site http://fashionstopshop.multiply.com where they sell replicas of Jeffrey Campbell's Lita.

I love the color and it's really affordable.:)
