Be....

In a world of Kardashians, be Diana.... show grace and style, sophistication and elegance with a little lace 

I know Kim has come far.... for what ever reason that is still a complete mystery! 

Trust me I'm not a hater and I'm not somebody who is jealous, but I don;t get it. If you do please explain to me....

Style wise I believe she is at her best at the moment.... in the past from my professional point of view as a trained fashion designer I have only one word shameful! 

You might say it;s hard but keep in mind when you have all the means in the world and money is not an issues, all the designers open  the door in front of you and you still look like you had no mirror at home, it;s ridiculous! There are no excuses! 

But it;s not all bad... I know we all have bad days but when you are in front of moving lenses 24/7 the game changes and you have to be perfect. 

And talking about lace... Kim pulled some great lace outfits... 

and some.... oh well! 

The latest pregnancy look is way better, well done Kanye! 

So be the best you can be and keep in mind the world is watching! 

Be an example and show the young girls that look up to you that you can be more than just another  tape....

XO, 

Lorena 

No excuses.....

Dressing up is not only a necessity but also the opportunity to show your personality. 

When I see people going through life by wearing every day almost the same boring clothes without putting any thoughts into it, it makes me sad and it;s disappointing to see that fashion is in most people's eyes something for snobs or folks with money. 

Take a look at these stylish people who despite the disability , they still get up, make an afford and look great! 

Simply admirable and fabulous to see. 

So I say, do your hair, put some make up on, I am not saying to go overboard, like this lady, 

but make yourself presentable 

Take a look at Jillian Mercado a fabulous fashion writer....All these fabulous people should be an example to all of us.

When I see images like that, 

it;s not only embarrassing, but a disgrace for a human to be allowed to leave the house like that! 

I say NO Excuses, call the fashion police! 

Joan would turn in her grave, seeing these people! 

Say no to slob fashion! You can look great, dress from K-Mart! The key is to make an effort! 

Life is to short too wear boring clothes! 

I see fashion as an art form.... You are the canvas! Make the canvas interesting! 

XO. 

Lorena. 

PS: What is your style and do you have an excuse for not giving your best?

Recycling .... And he is back.....

Re purposing a piece of fabric, material or other item is these days a must! 

I was waiting long to see his latest collection and it's finally here! 

Take a look at the latest designs by John Galliano for Maison Margiela 

Inspired by beautiful landscapes, art and the world of Monet.....

Net make up style, a vintage dot ensemble and stylish unique hair.... he is back with more power and extravaganza! 

A signature Galliano, recycling, reinventing and rethinking....

And speaking of recycling.... My little baby girl is growing so fast that I need to style up her favourite pants.... She is so comfy in it that I can;t give them away so, I need to make them larger....

So in a moment of silence, with a good cup of Nespresso I started to cut and modify while catching up with the world of fashion! 

Paris is going crazy for his style.... the runway is vibrant and colourful.....

This is my favourite piece of the collection....the burlap dress! 

What is yours?

XO, 

Loreana 

Oscar de la Renta.....

His designs are truly a dream and since yesterday the fashion world lost a beautiful soul. Designer Oscar de la Renta had always a special place in my heart. His designs made me smile. Oscar showed his love for handmade and crochet in almost every collection.
RIP, Oscar you gave us a beautiful world and made every fashion season and red carpet a pleasure. Your creations will live forever....

I would like to celebrate his style and designs with a special illustration and his last collection.

Enjoy  and celebrate his designs! 

XOXO, 

Lorena 

Miss Piggy and her Louboutins!

Miss Piggy , oh Miss Piggy always, turning heads but lately she went full fashion with  a lovely fashion shoot! 

Designers like Marc Jacobs, Jason Wu and  were ready to give her a new look!

 

The new Muppet movie will be a hit and will cover a lot of trendy styles! Miss Piggy plays a Vogue editor and is so full in fashion! InStyle dedicated her 8 pages in the November issue and so I found great inspiration in Miss Piggy for  my latest gift wrapping design! 

I think you know by now that I love to illustrate Louboutins! 

So I was combining the love of the Louboutins with the stylish and iconic Miss Piggy! 

The result:
