Ready to be Beige for AW10?

Posted by Qing on July 16, 2010 | No comments

Actually it seems like the word ‘beige’ is being completely avoided in the entire magazine world. Instead they are using the word ‘caramel’ to describe one of the hottest trends for AW2010.

Return of the Super Woman — Kristen McMenamy

Posted by Qing on March 15, 2010 | No comments

Powerful full lips, ginger red hair, dramatic body pose, that is Kristen McMenamy. I vividly remembered her from my early teenage time by flipping through Elle and my finger tips stopped at the Versace advert. There she stood and seemed shouting out—-’I am the 90s power women!!’

Even with the cutsey floral print in Prada’s campaign just before mid 90s, she still looks very powerful and womenly there. The young I used to think how perfect she looks there and dreamt about myself how I would want to look like her when grown up.

Lanvin invited her back last year for their campaign which is a real surprise to me as I couldn’t recognise her at all.

Until she had the offical catwalk return appreared on Viktor & Rolf AW2010 catwalk show just finished in Paris.

I know it’s absolutely crime to mention a lady’s age but being 43 and looking like this, she is a true Super Woman!
