Prepare for Spring with Ideeli Red Sale

Posted on January 31st, 2010 by Fashion Juice (Admin) | 3 Comments »

Spring is almost up! YAY! And thanks to Ideeli’s Red Sale, I’m already acquiring pieces for the Spring and Summer season. But more importantly thanks to all you who have joined Ideeli through my links. You guys rock! It’s a much needed online shopping after getting sick… My previous posts have been scheduled. Good thing I did that because I was sick for the past two days. More on that later, I’ll first show you what I got. I got two goodies for free…

First up is a beautiful maxi dress that doubles up as a skirt. What makes this special is that it is 100% silk… oooh… luxury. I love it. And the yellow popping out at the bottom half of this ombre dress is like Spring pushing out the gray color of Winter! Hmm… cheesy. LOL! But anyway, I just love that I get two ways to wear it – as a dress and as a skirt! Oooh I can’t wait to receive it and try it out! Of course, it’ll be on my Weekly Wear!

Yasb Ombre Dress

This dress was originally $174 but it was on sale for $54 and then I got it for… FREE!

Weekly Wear 41 is all about having fun. I don’t intend to wear something like this in real life… but I thought it would be fun… LOL! Sometimes, it’s exciting to get out of your comfort zone, take risks, try something new, do what you’ve never done, eat what you’ve never tried, go somewhere you never thought you’d go to… in short, LIVE LIFE! Because as we always say, life is too short. Live life to its fullest!

Anything goes because sometimes, girls just wanna have fun!

Gossip Girl Meets Vampire Diaries

Posted on January 29th, 2010 by Fashion Juice (Admin) | 2 Comments »

One of my favorite shows as of late is Vampire Diaries. Thanks to my youngest brother-in-law who recommended the popular show, Hubby, the other B-I-L and I are now all fans.

Trivia

Do you know that there are a lot more viewers of Vampire Diaries than Gossip Girl. I was shocked learning this fact. But it’s true.

Still, one cannot take away the fact that both CW TV shows, Gossip Girl and Vampire Diaries are hit series of today. Blair, Chuck, Serena, Dan, Nate and Jenny  make the Gossip Girl show a hit. On the other hand, thanks to Elena, Stefan, and Damon, Vampire Diaries are getting more and more viewers each week. Some say one factor that makes Vampire Diaries a big hit is because it’s like the TV version of the hit movies “Twilight” and “New Moon”. There’s the beautiful lady that needs saving (Elena) and there’s the handsome vampire in love with a mortal (Stefan).

Going back, CW is planning a switch-a-roo. Nina Dobrev, star of The Vampire Diaries and Gossip Girl’s Leighton Meester will switch it up heading to one another’s shows shaking it up as guest stars. It’s gonna be Vampire Girl meets the Upper East Side and vice versa. What do you think?

Transition from Winter to Spring like Charlize Theron

Posted on January 28th, 2010 by Fashion Juice (Admin) | 1 Comment »

Looking for some celeb-inspired outfit that will take you from Winter to Spring season? Here’s Charlize Theron showing us how to transition from winter to spring effortlessly and chic.

We know how spring is all about bright colored or pastel dresses, right? However, in the early weeks of spring, there’s still some chill in the air. So to easily transition from winter to spring, why not mix pieces from both season? Just like how we did it during the fall season?

Take for example Charlize Theron. She mixes a bright colored dress from Thakoon’s Addition Collection from Fall 09 and used Wolford black opaque tights (highly recommended and said to be the best opaque tights by stylists and celebs) with some black pumps. And to balance the dark/winter pieces at the bottom, she matches the dress with some leather jacket with sleeves that she pulled up to make it look like 3/4 sleeves. Instant chic. Now let me share with you how I’ll be transitioning from winter to spring, care of Beyond The Rack.

I have a new top/dress which I owe to you readers. It’s from the brand/label, Industry. I ordered it during the crazy Blowout Sales from Beyond the Rack. Their sales were definitely out of this world. If I’m not mistaken, I got this top for less than $20. And just look at the material. I love it. If I remember correctly the original price was around $60-80. It was definitely a good deal, not to mention I didn’t pay for it. Yay! I paired it with my recent find, the three dollar Givenchy lace tights I posted the other day.

P.S.

Please excuse my hair and face because I had these photos taken past 2 am, after a night out with friends… LOL!

Who is Designer Andy The-Anh?

Posted on January 28th, 2010 by Fashion Juice (Admin) | Leave a Comment »

I’ve been meaning to talk about Andy The-Anh for a long time now. I was sent some look books of his design (thanks Erica) and may I just say that his designs can definitely level up to the likes of upcoming designers such as Thakoon, Philip Lim, and the Mulleavy sisters’ Rodarte label. Well, Andy The-Anh is fairly new in the US but it’s not stopping the label from getting good reviews.

Andy Thê-Anh was born in Vietnam and came to Canada in 1981. After graduating from college in science he entered LaSalle College where he graduated with a degree in design. As a young designer, Thê-Anh was the recipient of many high Canadian honours such as; ‘’Young Quebec Fashion Designer’’, ‘’Dubonnet Design’’ and finally the ‘’Fur council of Canada’’. Andy also won the 2006 Fashion Export Award, Canada’s equivalent to the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Award, in the category: Women’s Wear. In 2008, Andy Thê-Anh was also nominated for the Dallas Fashion Awards; Women’s Sportswear nominee.

Regarded as one of Canada’s top fashion designers and headquartered in Montreal, Andy The-Anh’s design style has been referred to as “businesswoman-chic-meets-edgy-glam- goddess” and his current collections don’t disappoint. He works with flattering cuts, luxury fabrics, and conservative colorways. With three freestanding stores already in Canada, his collections are now available in the US at Neiman Marcus, and at smaller boutiques around the country.Check out some of the pages of his current look book. Loving any of his pieces? What do you think? Leave me a comment below.
