NEWS : It's the People's Place at TOMMY

 By: Unknown    03:07  No comments

Tommy Hilfiger opened the very first store called People’s Place in New York back in the 1969 when he was still a teen. Like any teen of his generation, his main interests centered around music - rock and roll, friends and fashion. The shop was a hangout for him and his friends where they burned incense, dressed like rock stars, listened to music and painted all the walls black. The brand has grown and evolved in many ways since then and many different styles have been developed over the years.

They've also selected different fashion bloggers in each country to cover this launch and guess who's Malta's ? I've snapped some pictures of the items that you can scroll down and view but I suggest you pop by the store and get a feel for it. The quality is really lovely and I really enjoyed the vibe of the display itself.

"The collection celebrates a sense of individuality and reflects some of the iconic imagery that’s at the heart of rock music.”

So for the when and where details -

• Starts 25th March and runs until 3rd April at The Point and Valletta - Saturday 28th there will also be a DJ in store. 
• Last but not least - they're also giving a free canvas bag (below...it comes in red as well) from the collection with every pair of denim purchased.

My Styling Work : Working with TOMMY

 By: Unknown    01:41  No comments

It's been a hectic week what with all the Simshar red carpet frenzy, the actual premiere was tiring enough in itself...but all the scouting and selecting of the best looks and talking about it on TV and reviewing etc etc...enough to simply say I'm TIRED......but it's not yet time to rest because today is the much anticipated yearly Fashion For a Cause fashion show organised by Noelene Miggiani, Yvonne Desira Buttigieg and Marisa Grima and I'll be working backstage assisting Marisa.

Onto the point of this post and the pic above, I'd like to show you the result of a photoshoot that I worked on last week. The model is Fanny supernovamodel.com and was scouted by Marisa Grima...we decided to organise a quick shoot in collaboration with Tommy Hilfiger Malta.

Photographer : Kurt Paris

Makeup : Krista Paris

Stylists : Marisa Grima & Caroline Paris

Fanny is wearing nautical-inspired clothes very wide striped trousers that draw attention to her amazing long legs ...it was matched with an opposing horizontal pattern on top and a pop of bright colours - yellow and pink. The look is a relaxed but smart look that can easily take you from day to night and is a nice breezy outfit.

And I'd also like to give a little mention to my styling work for Simshar - styling these two great men - Ryan Gatt who has been handling all the press for the movie and premiere and Mark Mifsud one of the main actors in the movie. 

Mark wears a blue striped jacket and polka dot shirt that is smart but fun and Ryan wears red trousers, checked shirt, navy blue blazer with patched sleeves and a bow-tie. -all Tommy.

Bow-ties are back with a bang and especially these material ones that are a bit more casual, they really add a huge amount of style to an outfit...so listen up men..go buy bow-ties. 

Hope you like ! :)

For those who want a closer look at these these outfits, there are Tommy Hilfiger Stores in Baystreet and Valletta and they have a facebook page right here .

Shopping Post : What your Valentine Really Wants

 By: Unknown    01:45  No comments

The other day, I was speaking to some of my girlfriends and we got talking about the approaching Valentine's Day; interestingly enough it seems like the rate of women receiving unwanted gifts that they don't have the heart to exchange is alarmingly high. Others also lamented the fact that they never get anything more original than a box of chocolates and/or flowers. Sooo, apparently the men folk need some direction for Valentine...maybe a little nudge to think outside the box and go for something which will be a bit more appreciated.

I decided I need to give the menfolk a helping hand and here it is; for this post, I collaborated with Armani Jeans and Tommy Hilfiger both at Baystreet and chose my top 5 Valentine's Day Gifts from each of these stores. Both these stores are open till 10 p.m. and also on Sunday, so they're super great for those really busy men; otherwise read as NO EXCUSES!

So as you can see from the pic above I've chosen  5 different items:

•  A classic trench coat, every woman needs a beautiful, classically cut, trench coat; ideally in a nude shade so it can be worn with anything and everything.
• A colourful everyday bag for Spring; this PVC, fun bag is easily cleaned, not delicate and can work really well as an everyday bag.
• A scarf, women can never have enough scarves so this is an easy one, pick a bright colour for Spring.
• A patterned, elegant blouse, since Spring and Maltese hot weather is just around the corner, it's time to think about loose fitting, slink bright tops; we'll soon be putting away the blacks.
• For those men whose Valentine truly loves fashion this orange blazer is a true  statement piece - guaranteed to garner lots of hugs and kisses.

Again, as before I've chosen  5 different items:

•  A lovely tote bag in a muted, bright coral 
• Lime jeans are set to be one of the hottest things this new season...it is essential hat they fit well , so a well tailored pair is necessary.
• As I mentioned before, you can't go wrong with a scarf; this one is particularly lovely.
• A super-cute, floral, shift dress that melted my heart, for all those ladies that love sweet, pretty things.
• For those ladies that love sweet, pretty things but hate dresses, there are also trousers in the same pattern! Slinky, comfy, loose fitting, trousers!

Good Luck Men!
