I just love anything that's relate to high tech, futuristic gagets, Galaxy, Mysticism, spirituality stuff and of course Fashion! so when I saw the super talented fashion designer Hussein Chalayan Created a "Big Bang" Mechanical Dresses in his 2008 collection, I had to share w/ y'all if you have not seen it, it's jsut smipily amazing!
Hussein Chalayan is certainly no stranger to incorporating technology into his fashions, as he already showcased a series of LED laser dresses earlier this year in Tokyo. During the 2008 Paris Fashion Week , Hussein presented his Fall collection, which included high-tech dresses used to symbolize the Big Bang
The designer created mechanical dresses that sent out moving spots of light to symbolize the big-bang theory of the beginning of the universe. It's a beautiful sequence that feels almost like a ballet.

Dior has done it again! Besides their fabulous clothing & accessories collections, even their AD campaigns are now captivate our imaginations! Directed by Olivier Dahan , featuring French actress Marion Cotillard, Dior has released a mini film of its own - a lady James Bond adventure. For this ad campaign, Dior has invited 2008 Oscar winning French actress Marion Cotillard as its advertisement spokesperson as well as the famous photographer Peter Lindbergh to take shots. Taking a fancy to Marion’s noble temperament, so Dior selected her to be the model who can match with the new Lady Dior Cannage Bag perfectly.
"Chapter 1: A Lady Noire Affair". The film shows off the men in perfectly pressed Dior Homme suits, and Marion Cotillard rushing up the Eiffel Tower in amazing black heels, distinctly shaped "Diorette" sunglasses and the Lady Dior Handbag. Dior has cleverly put their best selling handbag on display with a short film and the episodes will continue. I'll be blissfully await the next video made in New York "Lady Rouge".
Below you can view “The Lady Noire Affair”, which was released in May. Do not expect to get all the answers right away. If you pay careful attention there are clues provided. So who will save lady Dior? We will have to wait and see.
It’s said that the reason why this bag is so famous is kinda related with our familiar Princess Diana. "In 1995, at the Cezanne Art Exhibition sponsored by Dior Corporation, the former French First Lady Bernadette Chirac sent Princess Diana a new model of Christian Dior bags as a gift." Then Dior immediately named this unreleased bag "Lady Dior" - gracefully to the name extremely. And Diana also liked this bag so much that she carried it in many important official occasions, then this bag has fired up.
This latest Lady Dior Cannage Bag 2009 is crafted by the soft supple suede which sends out a light lambency, patterned with cannage embroidery and logo cannage jacquard lining.

OMG! I am crazy about this Limited Edition FENDI Grey Jersey Peekaboo Satchel w/ Hot Pink Leather Lining!! It's so uptown chic yet downtown cool! Combining the everyday material as the jersey fabric that we wear as the sweatshirt with luxurious hot pink color leather, it's a must have for every hip fashionistas!
The Fendi Peek-a-Boo bag is an "underground" celebrity it bag. It's a pretty low-key handbag, , but it just screams luxury.
We've been reporting many different style of the Fendi Peekaboo Satchel in our blog, but this new jersey peekaboo is one of my favorite one, because it has a very similar shape to the Hermes Kelly bag, but this Fendi Peekaboo satchel has a classic shape without seeming "snoby" and bourgeois like the Hermes Kelly.... and it's way more hip and easy to carry. Don't get me wrong i love Hermes, but compare to Fendi's peekaboo, I like this bag more, it's just my opinion.

Mr. Wilbert Das, when not being the über creative director at Diesel, is into setting up beautiful villas in Brazil. So glad he picked up this 'hobby', else we wouldn't have had Uxua Casa Home.
"Above a remote stretch of Brazil’s Bahian coastline sits an enchanting fishing village called Trancoso. On the town’s historic green (the Quadrado) is a secret garden holding a luxurious hideaway; nine 1-3 bedroom houses built and decorated in collaboration with local artisans using traditional building methods, recycled materials, and exquisite attention to detail."
Well, Thank you Mr. Das. Good job!
Now for those tickets and reservations..
But wait. Let me first practice pronouncing Uxua...it can't sound the way its sounds coming out of my mouth..can it?
You try. While you take a look at this amazing place..
