Merry Christmas Everyone!

We just got back with an almost perfect tan right off the coast of Bondi and Coogee. Nope, no Paris Hilton in sight, but at least we managed to steer clear the bustling city to soak up the sun and hit the waves.
Sorry if you have been missing us, cos we know how it feels!

Christmas is a BIG thing for us. We're heading out to get the turkey & ham, hope you are all done with your last minute shopping.

Lastly, Michelle Phan has some good tips on this festive's make-up palette, do watch her video if you need some advice for this evening's party:

Merry Christmas, Stylissimos!!!

Michelle Obama - Inaugural dress

(This is probably the only time we get ourselves involved with politics...)

It wasn't Calvin Klein, neither was it Diane von Furstenberg.

The creative brain behind Michelle Obama's inaugural dress was Cuban-borned American Designer, Isabel Toledo, who is known as a master in geometric and pattern shapes.


The pale gold sheath dress (with matching long coat) was just perfect for the significant occasion. Without a doubt, the "shiny armour" complements her complexion impeccably and we love how the silhouette appears fashionable yet very graceful for a first-lady. Deliberate clash of emerald green pumps was a great effort by Mrs Obama to deviate from the often cliché styles of first-ladies.

This isn't the first time that Mrs Obama wore a number by the talented Parson Graduate.

In fact, Obama appeared at a New York City fashion world fund-raiser in a black outfit by Toledo last June.

And in case you're wondering, none of them made it.
