Behind The Scenes

I was recently interning at Femina for the style diva north competition and i got to experience the madness.I didn't realize the tremendous amount of hard work it took to make a show perfect and even after all the organizing ,things don't turn out to be exactly how you plan.

On my first day i was unsure whether i would fit in. I was the youngest , inexperienced and well,clumsy!But it was amahzing (yes that's probably so-5-minutes-ago).This was my first time working and a job working a style pageant is definitely the right way to start.I had heard the cliches- model girls are bitchy (in their defense they were being denied dessert),gossip is amazing way to kill time (works, definitely works!),famous people are self-obsessed (Not true!).

The contestants!

Getting the style right

The winers!!

I'm so happy I got this opportunity amongst beautiful gowns and cat fights (I've come to a conclusion that girls fight funny).Now I've got to get back to the grind (School). *Crying my eyes out*

Ellie Saab S/S'13

He called this collection "An Ode To Delicateness" and rightfully so each piece was princessy pretty! Ellie Saab is known for his evening dresses and gowns.(Heck, Blair Waldorf got married to Chuck Bass in an Ellie Saab!!), this collection was like an ode to dresses.
He combined sheer and soft hues perfectly to match the mood of spring just right.
The collection can be divided into different colors such as nude,red,black,pastel blue with the same basic idea in design.

These are some of the key pieces of the collection.Comment below your opinions of the collection! :D

Spring: Stripes!

Spring is wonderful. Birds chirping, colors everywhere-basically a Disney princess movie scene.But my favorite part of spring is probably the spring clothing.Pastels, floral's ,the revival of shorts while still being able to wear the blazer! This season gives no reason to complain. Spring'13 has also gotten me majorly excited.

The first trend that I'm going to talk about is Stripes.They have been big on the runways this season and with good reason (see what i did there :D). Stripes are the epitome of fashion architecture. You can use them to make you appear taller,thinner or even to accentuate in areas you may lack in.

Oscar de la Renta,Marc Jacobs,Christian Dior, Balenciaga have all advocated these trends these seasons.

The best thing about this trend is it can ct inches on whilst still being fashionable and it is very versatile.It can be worn on pants,skirts,shirts,blazers,dresses,shorts and even on accessories like a head or a bag!!

Black and white stripes are a classic!

Vertical stripes can thin you down 

Horizontal stripes are perfect for people who lack curves

It can be worn in accessories and shoes too!!

For people with the apple type body shape(broader on the top) vertical stripes can be used to even out the curves.
These can be incorporated in a chic blazer,knitted cardigan or a shirt.

Going sheer and stripes will be hitting two birds with one stone

Experimenting in fun designs and layering is also a good idea

Stripes are adorable in any color,specially signature spring candy hues!

If you have a pear type body shape(broader on the bottom, vertical stripes can be used in a similar way to balance your figure.

The asymmetrical hemline is also a hit this season 

Experiment with color and design

If you are petite you can give an illusion of curves by using horizontal stripes on the bottom or the top.

The size of the stripes and distance between them can vary

Crop tops + stripes= Spring!

Have fun with the trend and don't forget to experiment with colors , shapes and sizes!!

Have fun with it!
