Whats New Pussy Cat.



Bless your body, bless your soul
Pray for peace and self control
Bless your body, bless your soul
Reel me in and cut my throat



What are dreams to us if they are not mythical. If dreams to come true, then we'll have to aim higher. If dreams do come true, i would have had received a parcel from Raf yesterday.Holding on to vain hope makes this realese from reality..can i say momentarily?

I've been contemplating on life's issues. Afraid to make (bad) decisions, i feigned sleep. I want to submerge from hiatus and stand on my own two feet. I can't be serving second chances only to be disappointed repeatedly, when I myself need that second chance. I should be doing this a long time ago, there is no hesitation in success.You know you're doing the right thing when there's no more tears to cry.

Christian Lacroix The Costumier


“ Couture dresses should be perfect at close range. Ready-to-wear should be concrete and practical. Fashion should be a matter of look, everyday life and current atmosphere “ – Christian Lacroix













OSN est sur la cession de Mykromag cette semaine, pour l'exposition Lacroix.
Okay,I’ll stop fooling around. Sonny had given us the task of visiting the museum while he lodge in the hills of Spain, feeding unicorns, milking cows and whatnot. (There’s a possibility that he might be chasing mountain goats for a new coat too. Kidding.)

I had my first museum tour in ages. It will probably be my last. While the air-conditioning and filling up the survey form were the highlight, the exhibition was gloomy. For each sentence I have to read, it was like searching for Alek Wek in a depressingly dark room. Am I the only one disappointed? The illustrations were awesome but I would not even discuss the costume display.
Do keep a lookout for my twitter updates for the formal reviews and more images on the MYKROMAG BLOG.

A Designer A Day



When i showed my mom a picture of Karl, a good friend of mine at Chanel pre-fall 09 show, she mistook him for ...

Count Dracula. Does he really? That gave me an idea of a segment i can do on on OSN.You know how (most) bloggers try to sound almighty, squeezing a name (or two) of french people or designers even models and then you go like pi-vo-va-ro-va-ra-va who? Worst, blogs with too many sponsored entry ( The New Paper FastAds is that chu?) and they will end the post with "I would die to have those louboutins" or something similar to that. So if i smack a pair of Gabin pumps to your face,would you dig your own grave?

From the paragraph above,it concludes that i have not taken my medications. Back to idea- Thats when you will skip the post and go to the entry with Britney Spears. It's Britney bitch. Everyone knows Britney.If you don't, you must learn this: Britney Spears does shave and Karl, the person i mentioned earlier is the art director of Juicy Couture. See, you've learnt something new. Bravo.

I hope through this newly introduced segment called A Designer A Day we can all learn something.

Marni F/W 2009.10



In true Marni fashion, the collection set a new pragmatic new mood with it's investment dressing. The then mismatched easthetic of Lucinda Chambers was well matched this season.

More classy than the usual Marni, we saw the adjustment of length to it piecesnot too old, perhaps for someone in the late twenties,Very luxurious,young and fresh, Marni has long-life expectancy as a collection this season.
