Qu'est-ce qu'on a aimé cette anneé?


Elle Jan 09


Every year, my obsessions fade into the past except for those cherished items that make it to my closet! This year, however, I have my blog (with pics!) to remind me of all the eye candy i lusted over those past seasons.. which is kinda cool! Kinda acts as a baseline for my fashion sense lol

Last year I remember my summer gladiators, romantic ruffles, cardigan craze, getting waisted (skinny and big belts were all over the place), plaid (yes plaid), Balmain's Bling, lace! (i love love loved that trend), the gossip girl head band.. everything bowtastic (always and forever).. mmm to name a few!

Amids the financial crisis, trends did not cease to emerge..
Shoe trends.. detailed heels then not so much of a heel (a la marc jacobs).. the open toed bootie.. Cut-outs..
Patterns..plaids..florals.. echo-friendly fabric.. and organic makeup.. shimmery eyeshadow.. black nails..the round mascara..the vibrating mascara.. the oxygen facial..the 24 k gold facial..multi-tasking makeup..
Big bags, ankle bags, tiny clutches, mega clutches.. it goes on and on and on..


So.. What trends did u absolutely love this year? Or maybe there was a trend that got on your bad side (black lips, par example?) lol


Whatever it is.. DO TELL!


- to outlasting the trends ;) xx

Delly: braaaceletsSSS! i forgot about them! definitely 08 will be remembered as the year of bracelets in my books lol As for Cartier.. and all other brands.. i read that they are "Considering 09 fashion cautiously because of the financial situation" but thats just about RTW!

I don't think jewelers are included :P

Over-sized clutches, maxi dresses and anything purple.

I recently saw a few people sporting a tiny very thin plain golden bracelet that's fitted and does not move when you move your hand/arm, and has a single charm. I dunno if it has a name or where I can get one, but it is very elegant.

Love the fashionista blog btw.

Cartier did lower their prices 20% since last week I think..
thats what they've told us at Dubai Mall ;)

Fastidious Babe said...

Delly: cute! <3

Anon: I totally forgot about my plum phase! lol purple was big this year indeed xx


Aljoud: for real? If that's the case then I would probably wait a couple more months.. might even drop lower! X
