NO Title Yet...

I am sorry. I really couldn't think of a title for this. As you guys know, my blog is about art! It would be weird if I don't draw because I always critique other people's work. I was really sick today, so I couldn't go to school. I decided to draw in bed. Right now I am totally into the whole military feeling after I came back from a DMZ trip last week. The DMZ was awesome and I actually thought the way the service men were dressed was pretty fashionable. I mean, I thought if their style was edited with some modern sense, it would have been fashionable. I drew a military walker. Dr. Martins! It was really hard to draw, but I tried my best. I hope you guys can critique my work, so I could become a better artist after hearing all your critiques.

RAIN=HUNTERS

Monsoon is coming up in Korea. I hate rain because I feel sticky and the air smells bad. But the air feels so fresh after all that rain. Have you guys ever walked in rain with sandals or sneakers? Aren't they awful? Wow, they are disgusting for me. I decided to help you guys out this season. HUNTER rain boots would be our savior this year. My personal favorite model from HUNTER is the Regent line.

They help your legs look longer because they have the unbalanced cut. I have seen a lot of people who are petite wearing long hunters, but I think they are a little bit too much for them. For those who are petite should wear the short HUNTERs. They still block all the rain but are shorter. They would make your legs look much longer and you wouldn't look so overwhelmed by your boots!

For those who love the luxurious "stuff", the HUNTER Jimmy Choo collaboration is perfect. The boots is still made of rubber but they have added texture to resemble the crocodile skin. Absolutely luxurious.

I hope you guys have a look at HUNTERs and become the fashionable during a sticky rainy day! Ciao!

Finally Again: Alexander Wang F/W 2010/2011 Collection

Finally he is back, the great Alexander Wang. As you know, my first blog post was about Alexander Wang's collection. Now I am writing another blog post on his fall collection. I don't know why but his collection are something I can't wait for. Such a fan of him. Anyways, back to the point. I wanted to critique is show like I did on the last show. Like most fall winter shows, this show was full of dark colors such as black, brown, gray, etc. The hair style was very simple. He just pressed bangs on to the models faces. I was able to emphasize on the clothes much more. I love the way he made sweaters that kind of fit to the model rather than boxy sweaters. He seems to love the caramel color since last season. I found one similar concept on this runway. A lot of the tops were short. I'm not a personal fan of long tops, especially with jeans. I like short tops to match with jeans. It makes your legs look longer. The coasts seem very body conscious. It shows a lot of skin compared to winter clothes. There are cut out areas on the coat. My favorite coat is the gray coat that has a section cut out. I like this because I think it would be great to give an accent on my winter clothing. I wasn't a huge fan of this season's leather wear. I didn't like the long leather coat because there wasn't a lot of special elements and it looked boring. Even though there were silhouettes, but I wasn't a personal fan of it. I loved this show because it was unique in that it showed a lot of skin compared to other winter shows. I am very excited for the next collection Alexander Wang will present. I just can't wait! Spring 2011 come quick.

Are they the Same?

Are they same? Korean pop star Lee Hyori is now being noticed because of her fashion on stage! She has always been the ultimate Korean fashion icon, but her fashion this album was very interesting. She mixed hip hop with this years trend. I found those pair of pants at OAK today. At first I felt that this pants was very familiar, but once I saw a video of her perform I remembered this pants. This pants was too unique to forget. The see through pants were awesome. I still have no clue where Hyori got her pants, but definitely for those of you who want to try this pants, go ahead and shop at OAK for it because this is the only place I've seen this.

Face off

Photographer: Fabrice Lachant.
Styling: Guy Hipwell.
Make-up and Hair Styling: Nikki Wolff.

Attention to all of those who love makeup! I found two interesting makeup! They are awesome. They used beads, gold rings, and spangles on the faces to give accent. It also, used all the trend colors for this season. Pink and gold. All of those face accessories were near the eye. Maybe the artist wanted to focus on the eyes of the model. It is true that the model has beautiful eyes. Isn't the lighting of the photographs beautiful? They are so spring-like. I can really imagine these example of makeup on the runway show of a famous designer or even a new designer!

WHAT?!

I just found a really interesting picture! Okay, can someone explain this picture to me? This guy is apparently is wearing a pair of heels, tight short, and crimson colored jacket. The tight shorts and the jacket is okay, but the heels were interesting. Even though in the past Marc Jacobs show I've seen men wear feminine clothes and I see guys wearing feminine clothes often, this was just extreme. I know that I might be the one who is being sexist saying that only girls can wear a pair of heels, but this is just a little unusual to me. I can't say anything about this person's fashion style because this is just the way they portray themselves. I think that this person is very brave with their fashion. This guy looks very tall and I think would be tall even though he takes off his heels. In Korea, girls think that it is the girl's privilege being able to wear heels. Apparently, sorry Korean girls, it can now be a uni sexed privilege to wear heels. Now I look at this picture a several times, it doesn't look too peculiar. I think I'm used to it now. What do you guys feel?

Something Weird but Special

Hi guys! I was just going through random blogs through Blogspot and found a really cool artist blog. This website is made by an artist named Lola Dupré. I don't believe she is a famous artist, but I surely think that she will become famous! Or she might already be famous, and I might be the only one who is so amazed by a "new artist" on my own. Her artwork is very surreal. She seems to emphasis one part of a face. She uses paper and scissors to complete her artwork and sometimes she uses pen and paint. Here are some examples of Lola's artwork.

All these pictures are based on human faces, however, sometime she creates a totally different interpretation of bodies. It is very interesting too!

(this is the original artwork that Lola decided to convert)
I think Lola is really creative. I think someday I can be inspired by her artwork!

More is More

Who said "less is more"?! That is absolute rubbish! Fam Irvoll proved to me that less is not more, and that actually more is more! Looking at her show it amazed me by the fact that she used so many 3-D elements. She put stuffed animals on her clothes, dots, and much more! Her show is absolute eye candy to me and of course you too. I love the way her models have this casual attitude on the runway. The models posed the way they wanted to pose. Some flew kisses to the audience, posed with another model. I adore the colors she used. I think she used all the colors in the rainbow! The designer herself looks very funky and fun too! She was raised in Oslo, Norway and graduated Esmod International and Central Saint Martins. It is known that she is inspired by Alice in Wonderland, cartoons,toys, food, cakes and candy.That really comes through her clothes. The ball of cotton seems to represent candy. Yum yum!There are a lot of cute different figures on knit wear! I just want them. I always wanted 3-D knitwear, stuff sticking out of it. Fam didn't go against the trend even though she was trying something totally new. She used the power shoulders that have been in trend for the past year. My favorite garment were the two pairs of dresses. The blue white dress and the two piece clothing (dotted top, puffy skirt, red ribbon). The blue white dress reminds me of Alice in Wonderland. As you know, I was pretty impressed with the fashion shown in the movie of Alice in Wonderland. It is very feminine but cute. It would be perfect for summer. I like the second garment because I love the ribbon. The ribbon gives a clear accent on the garment. I was wondering how it would look like if the ribbon was on the hair, but oh well. The hair and make up was very interesting too. Parts of the faces of each model was covered in white. I am still not sure why they covered only a part of the face, but I am sure it has some meaning to it. I will emphasize this again. More is More!

On the "Wedge"

Wedges are back! The girl's luxury of the summer to cool tall and long. I posted a few of my favorites. They vary from expensive to cheap. Of course, my favorite is the Alexander Wang. Style these wedges with flower print dresses, black jeans, or shorts! Cardigans and a white t-shirt would be a good choice too! There are so many way you can style wedges, but first you gotta get one! I am planning to get one too this summer. I am thinking about which one to get. You guys should all go and find the right wedge for you this summer.

Music Video or Fashion Video?

Style exists everywhere. Not only in magazines, fashion shows, streets, but also in music! Music is very closely related with fashion. I might say they are inseparable. A lot of music videos show unique fashion that enjoy all viewers eyes. It really shows how fashion is important in producing a music video.

This is a new music video by a Korean pop group named F(x). The clothes in this video is very funky. They show variety of unique styling. The title of this song is "Nu ABO"

This is another video by a K-pop girl group named 2NE1. I really admire their fashion in this movie because it is very unique! It is pretty awesome. I love they way they have one unique item for each outfit! The title of this song is " Try to Copy Me".

A music video by Beyonce. The title of this song is "Diva". The music video is made in black and white. She shows a lot of dressy styles in this video! They are just so glamorous. All the pretty details in her dresses are worth searching for.

This video is by Kesha. Her fashion in this video is very fun. She has dark smoky eyes with casual t-shirts and boots. It really somehow fits her song very well. It shows how simple things can be the best sometimes. The title of this song is "Tik Tok"
