Whenever I think of the word “kimono”, my mind goes to that conservative era where Japanese girls are walking down the road shyly but still looking all elegant and natural.
But to Delia’s, kimono has a new meaning and I can’t complain coz they look absolutely gorgeous. This kimono banded triangle is part of their new swimwear collection. And with those attractive color colaborations and pretty prints, you’d want to show it off all the time.
Embrace your asian moment with this US$38.50 piece!
At a glance, I know you all would say “what the heck is that?” lol.. I know I did that when I was browsing hot items from ShopIntuition.
These are actually a US$50 Swarovski Crystal earphones, dedicated for your listening pleasure. Now you can look totally hot while listening to your precious iPod or CD player. Available in lots of colors from purple, blue, pink, yellow, you name it they got it, you are free to choose.
Let’s get the bling-bling on!
I’m attached to this report from Elle. We all know that floral rocks this Spring, but check out these stunning photos. Ruven Avanador was the one responsible for these amazing shoots. You’ll see tons of amazing flower elaborations both from the setting and the dresses. From Valentino, to YSL, to Zac Posen, Marchesa, Dior and special jewelry collections from Chrome Hearts.
One of my favorites is the James Perse t-shirt (US$44) and Thakoon Peony skirt (US$2,850) above. They look so sweet together.
I know they definitely aren’t the ones for daily wear, so let’s just enjoy the lovely views, shall we?
Bravo Elle!

Everyone demands about being practical these days and that includes in packing our cosmetics to go. Jelly Pong Pong is one of the most favorite brands among celebrities, including Kylie Minogue and Natalie Portman.
This 2 in 1 multi function make-up consists of double ended lip and cheek stain. The gloss itself is with bonbon scented candy and the powder is made of delicate creme.
What I like about Jelly Pong Pong is their main ingredients that consist of aloe and beeswax. Now, we all know what Beeswax can do to our beauty, oui?
So, be a good girl and grab this package at Asos for £8 before it’s too late!
Okay, I admit it, I’m having charmbracelet fever. Not that I’m complaining though, I can’t believe there are so many cute and adorable bracelets around and here’s another proof I found from the trendiest brand in the market, Juicy Couture.
Wanna keep the sweetest memory you had at the Eiffel tower? or the romantic rendezvous at Empire State? how about carrying London’s phone booth in your wrist? lol.. (Gosh, I love those booths, I even asked my dear friend Lee to snap some pictures for me lol.. Thanks Lee *hug*). If your answer is a yes to all those questions, then you MUST own this bracelet because it symbolizes the icons I mentioned above plus some more irresistible goodies (especially the “do not disturb” sign!)
This bracelet is made of 14K gold-pleated brass, with cubic zirconia and nicely polished enamel. Clearly this is a jet-set!
I found this at Nordstrom for US$175. So, what do you think Felis? =)
I received a very nice email from Ms. Catherine from Kiss Me Deadly Lingerie. Getting new information especially about lingerie always made my day. So, I went to her site and I totally loved it.
Kiss Me Deadly is based in London and I can’t say it better than the team itself, so here comes the quote!
“Kiss Me Deadly lingerie is inspired by classic retro glamour, the golden age of the silver screen and the sophisticated, sensual seductiveness of the femme fatale. Designed by and for women, the lingerie pairs classic styling with modern fabrics and design - making them flatteringly beautiful to look at and yet comfortable to wear! They are covered in luxurious yet practical details, from fabrics to function to trim, making this lingerie a wearable fantasy.”
Sounds yummy to you? well, wait until you see their latest collections. I personally love their Alouette Red, and Lili (as shown above). Using elegant materials such as smooth satin with delicate ribbon and lace, this new line of lingerie is so ready to caress your skin and to pop-out your boyfriend’s eyes! *wink*
Well done, Catherine! =)

After 3 miserable days laying on the hospital bed, I am super glad that I’m home now. My apology for the absence. Trust me, my body might be there, but my mind was/is with Viecouture. And now I’m back! *cheers* Still feeling weak and all that but I’m gonna try to think positive. Thank God for wonderful family, friends and amazing boyfriend. I’m so blessed.
That’s a little update on what’s going on in my personal life, now let’s move on to the business, shall we?
Looking at cute bags always make me happy and this is one of them. Cute Radley bags collection from Debenhams. Available in 2 colors; grey tote bag and the black grab. I totally am in love with the grey tote, I mean take a look at the cute little doggie there.
Debenhams has this for £120.

I haven’t been feeling well lately and it’s quite depressing, but lucky for me, I got a boyfriend and family who are very supportive and caring. I’m still in recovery mode but I really can’t leave VieCouture behind hehe.. what can I say, I’m a bit addicted to this “job”.
Here’s something that certainly made my day. A new collection of overbust lace corset from one of the best corset makers in the world, FairyGothMother. As always, this is custom-made, and you can select which color suits you the most.
You can keep an eye on this beauty for £295.
Just like my darling girl Nat reported in her blog, everything is all about floral for this spring. Not that I’m complaining, I mean, take a look at this sweet slingback from Marc Jacobs.
I like the oversized bow and also the playful colors of white/red/rose/blue. These platform shoes are perfect companion for your daytime shopping or even lunch with your dear mother.
Bergdorf Goodman has it for US$380. Get it now while it’s still blooming!
Please welcome another Brazilian beauty that’s definitely reserves the right to be part of VieCouture favorites.
Isabeli Fontana was born in Curitiba Brazil on July 4, 1983. She decided to be a model when she was around 12 years old and by the age of 13, she was chosen to be the finalist for Elite Model Look Contest in Sao Paolo. She moved to Milan to pursue her career when she was only 14.
Her biggest controversy probably when she modeled for Victoria’s Secret catalog at the age of 16. However, that didn’t stop her from being the supermodel she is. It was proven by the amount of work she had done for high-end labels such as Valentino, Versace, Ralph Lauren, Bebe, etc. She is often seen walking down the runways from New York and Paris to Milan.
What I like about Isabeli? well, she’s a Brazilian, need I say more? lol..
