My experience of buying Louis Vuitton handbag

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009

I see that you guys are arguing about real or fake. cheap or expensive. For me i don’t like fake stuff. but i don’t have money to buy the super expensive one. so, almost every year i would buy myself a Louis Vuitton Handbag.. just a little gift for me.. not those thousand dollar one tho.. only those that cost from 3oo to 400.

I don’t have the kind of to afford Louis Vuitton Handbag either. Making 1000 a month is not enough to buy anything that cost around 1000. I ran up to this wholesalediva website too, and trust me i love to shop online. I remember a few years ago when i was still in high school, I bid on this coach bag on ebay that freaking cost me $150 and they sent me this fake ass, ugly one so i wanted to return it but the freaking seller delet it’s account too.. So, from that time on i never trust those stupid website that i’m not sure of. i don’t believe in that wholesalediva web cuz those comment they have is so fake..

If that saves a hard-working citizen a $1500 on a bag that is likely made of only cowhide and slaps of paint, coupled with shiny gold metal, then I’d say they’re smart about where they’re spending their money. Not everybody in this world is as fortunate to access mass amounts of cash that wealthy parents “bestow” upon their offspring. Many don’t have the luxury of not comprehending the value of money or what working for something really consists of. That’s the cruel reality.

Eco Fashion Tips

Monday, June 29th, 2009

With more and more “Green” products entering the mainstream, it seems as if everyone is looking for ways to be more environmentally friendly. But what about fashion? Is it possible to be environmentally sensitive and still maintain your personal style? The answer is unequivocally “yes,” but it does take a little scouting around to find the right retailer for your needs.

First, let’s define what it means to be eco-fashionable. Although it might be hard to find all of the following criteria in a single piece of clothing, you can begin to build your wardrobe around these environmentally-safe choices:

1. Locally Sourced

Purchasing items that are locally sourced is sometimes the most environmentally-sound decision you can make, because the products are not traveling a distance to get to you, and are therefore not contributing to the massive byproducts of shipping products around the world.

2. Fairly Traded

This is really about the moral background of your wardrobe. Was it made by people paid a living wage in reasonable working conditions? Fair trade means that producers are paid fair prices for their products, instead of the prices that the market will allow. This means that you will probably pay more for eco-conscious clothing, but you are supporting people who need money for housing, clean water, food, health care, education.

3. Organic

Much of our clothing is made of cotton and cotton blends, and cotton is a massive crop that, like many of our food crops, often requires extensive pesticide and chemical byproducts to produce. Popular demand for cheap cotton has increased crop production, which has also increased pesticide use. Cotton is the most pesticide-dependent crop in the world, accounting for 25% of all pesticide use. In fact, most cotton T-shirts require up to 1/4 lb. of harmful chemicals to produce. Instead, seek organic cotton for your clothing, as it offers fewer chemicals and is grown and harvested in an environmentally-sound manner.

4. Recycled

The vintage fashion trend has more legs than you ever realized when you add in the fact that you are actually recycling and dressing fashionably! So check out vintage stores and consignment shops, and also keep an eye out for designers who take vintage pieces and overstock fabrics to create new designs. These designers use recycled materials like old T-shirts, ties, scarves, dresses, costumes and curtains to create custom-designed, one-of-a-kind creations.

5. Sustainable

Sustainable products are made from renewable resources that don’t overly tax the Earth. Ideal sustainable resources are those that can be replaced at a rate equal to or greater than the rate at which they are consumed. Some great options for clothing include bamboo, which is a fast-growing crop that requires no chemical pesticides or fertilizers. Surprisingly, this amazing plant creates cashmere-like knits and silky-smooth fabrics.

6. Eco-conscious Production

This refers to the process of producing the fabrics, which can be highly energy-inefficient and polluting to the environment. Instead, look for products from wind-powered factories that use recycled waste-water.

7. Eco-conscious Companies

In addition to employing eco-friendly practices, eco-conscious companies often donate a percentage of profits to eco-related causes.

Eco-fashion is all about choosing materials that have been created with the Earth in mind. By taking a long-term view of how our actions affect future generations and making sure that we don’t deplete resources or cause pollution, we can help ensure a healthy Earth as well as maintain a sense of doing something good while also looking good.

To find eco-fashion, simply search online. Also check out magazines and online publications that review topics of organic crops, sustainability, and the other items listed in this article. Most of all, remember that you can be both fashionable and “green,” you just have to look for the opportunity to do so.

Simple fashion tips for summer

Friday, June 26th, 2009

With the hot, sizzling season of summer starting to show its rays in Australia, fashion trends and styles are changing. Party invitations are out, and festivities will soon be in full-force. Of course, with any festive occasion comes the need for more clothing! Pretty summer dresses and evening gowns, beach frocks and lighter blouses are the necessary wardrobe additions. But the key is not to blend into mediocrity by buying another off-the-shelf piece of clothing.

Here are some simple fashion tips to look fantastic, feel great, and stand out in style:

1)    Looking fantastic.

The latest seasonal designer fabric from Europe has arrived at d’Italia Exclusive Designer Fabric store in Melbourne. This pretty shop, which imports all its material direct from European fashion couture houses, is certainly prepared for the latest fashion trends. Bright floral patterns and summer colours are in fashion, with an extensive range of pure silk options for all types of dresses and gowns.

2)    Feeling great

Having a dress or gown tailor-made is not for the mediocre. It has been often said that to look good is to feel good. But beyond that, having the right materials on your body definitely will go a long way with individual comfort and ease of movement. Having a pure material as the base of a tailor-made dress or gown is vital for the extra comfort when wearing. Especially when highly intricate gowns are made, the highest quality material can make a huge difference.

3)    Standing out in style

Be unique. It’s as simple as that! Tailor-made dresses mean that you can take your favourite designs and tweak them to your own style, body shape, and preference. Dressmakers are usually more than happy to work with you to ensure a dress that is made to enhance the body and to accentuate the figure. Beyond that, choosing a quality, fashionable type of material with stylish patterns will ensure you stand out at any party or summer gathering!

d’Italia’s cloth comes directly from the same European manufacturers who supply to haute couture labels like Gucci, Armani and Escada. The available fabrics in-store are also perfect for bridal gowns and bridesmadids dresses. Referrals to seamstresses who specialise in evening wear and dinner gowns are also an available option.

Fashionable Circles: Erin Fetherston Skirts The Issue

Monday, June 22nd, 2009

As soon as this adorable Erin Fetherston skirt arrived at the office, it was supposed to go directly to a Very Important Shoot overseas. But I couldn’t resist, before we packed it in the trunks, to try it on for a few moments!
A simple if sumptuous black fabric is elevated to haute highs by dramatic wiring and boning to create volume, visual contrast and a silhouette flattering on almost any girl. The tailoring is impeccable and even in basic black its glamour quotient is spot on. Now, if only I could figure out how to sit down in it…

As soon as I saw these booties in the closet, I knew I would have to post about them. On the one hand, they’re a very practical pair of black suede booties with a gold zip closure, well made but nothing extraordinary. Curiously, the alternative view of each shoe reveals a pair of golden strappy sandals! Finally, a pair of shoes one can wear in both New York and LA!

Shorts and knits? Shorten it!

Saturday, June 20th, 2009

One of the good advantages of living in the southern hemisphere is adopting the European summer looks months before they hit the stores in Paris, Milan, Berlin etc. Of course Melbourne has its own unique looks for this summer such as err… whatever it is they wear for overdosing on speed. I’m guessing Everlast singlet and fluro-green trunks. But the point is, why not follow suit of some Melbournians and give your “CBF it’s too hot” shorts and tee combo a bit of a runway spin to it.

My favourite looks for this summer would have to be the inventive use of oversized light weight knits, with a pair of shorts. The look is very easy to assemble. Combine a thin cardigan, hoodie or jumper two sizes larger than what you would normally wear, with a t-shirt in thin polished cotton and put on a pair of tapered shorts. For the knits try sticking to the usual colours or experiment with muted shades of yellows and oranges. The shorts should be above the knee or higher, either in denim or light weight cotton fabrics. Keep the colours in the usual black, greys and navy colour or in patterns such as thin nautical stripes. And no, I don’t mean zebra, or any animal print, or any animal print in fluro pink. If all else fails go get a pair of black stubbies. No, really.

I’ve spotted a couple of fashion heavyweights try this look with an Ann Demeulemeester knit in black and grey and another one in white with a hood. But the good thing is you don’t have to spend half your rent on an oversized hooded knit; you can always go to Alpha 60 and get the carbon copy. I mean, alternative. Oops. Don’t forget to wear it with some low cut canvas/leather sneakers or canvas espadrilles.

Give it a go yourself and I can guarantee all your friends will be all “step back / random / hot / massive / sick / weeoooo” or whatever it is we’re saying this year. Keep in mind it’s a good choice for a day out judging sales assistants but not to the beach and definitely not to a house party in Narre Warren. Cashmere does not mix with riot police, cheap alcohol, yellow frame sunglasses or semi-naked twister. Well, maybe just the twister.
