Why Irish Dancing Started

I absolutely love Irish dancing and I would love to feature it as part of the Dansa series. For those of you familiar with the show and book, one thing I am always interested in is how, why or what is the inspiration behind the dances.

A friend sent me this video and though I know this is not true, as in the dance was not inspired by people who are desperate to go to the toilet, it is a really funny thought and does look like a possibility!

HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAA!

Valentino 2012

elie saab 2012

my favourite dress is the last blue sequinned one. looks like a mermaid dress.
so beautiful.

Louis Vuitton 2012

What an absolutely gorgeous set for Louis Vuitton.
\And I think i like the dress Kate Moss wears at the end the most.

Chanel 2012

The clothes are a little bit predictable, but I absolutely love the set of this show! Underwater themed, all white and huge..... Beautiful..

There are a few other shows with amazing sets too like Louis Vuitton. Will update as soon as I can with the videos of that show too.

Alexander Mcqueen

Someday, somehow, I am going to make sure I have something from Alexander Mcqueen in my wardrobe! I hope to find something vintage which was designed by Alexander when he was still alive and something from Sarah Burton. I really love how Sarah Burton is able to stick to the Alexander McQueen DNA which makes the creations so recognisable yet still carrying the brand forward. The detailing on these clothes if AMAZING!

I'm waiting!!!

I am waiting to see the earrings, necklaces and belts from this collection in the stores! And then trying to find a way to be able to buy them! My favourite look is the one of the coat with the orange flowers on it with matching earrings, necklace and belt...

something a bit spanish happening on the runways...

I notice that these shows all had a spanih influence to the designs with the flowing fabrics and ruffles. Looks great but not sure how practical...

more from SS 2012 fashion shows

FENDI - Really beautiful practical clothes
that will make you look effortlessly stylish all the the time.

GUCCI - Usual Gucci glamour, love the jackets.

ERDEM - I absolutely love how he does and uses floral prints!

MARY KATRANTZOU - How Mary creates her prints is really quite genius.

BURBERRY PRORSUM - Classically beautiful, yet thoroughly modern, as always.

D&G SS 2012

To me, this looks like a collection the wonderful late Gianni Versace

would do if he were still alive today. Very vibrant, loud, clashing prints...

a collection not for the faint hearted!

Love it!

Vitoria Beckham 2012

She's one of my favourite designers, but this collection...hmmmmm... i'm kind of disappointed. The tailoring of her clothes is absolutely beautiful, and classic designs. But would I be willing to break my bank account to buy something from this collection....
hmmmmmmm..... no, don't think so......
Some of her previous collections, yes, most definitely!

Ralph Lauren - another beautiful fashion show from New York fashion week

one of my favourite fashion shows from new york fashion week - spring 2012

Baby!

Just want to share with all of you,

my dear readers who have been faithful readers for a long time.

Baby Sasha on the way!

Well, not sure if a boy or girl yet...

During last baby scan doctor did say it is 90% percent of one of the sexes

(not going to say which sex, cause not 100% sure)

I'm 5 months pregnant now.

Hasn't been easy with not only morning sickness,

but all day sickness, and a bit of a complication where

i had to take medical leave for one week

during a very busy time at work.

Insyaallah, everything will be fine from now onwards.

(pic of baby scan above is from google images. not actually of my baby. :)

don't have one this clear yet)

Selamat berpuasa..

Selamat berpuasa to all my fellow Muslim readers.

I just got back from a week in London, shooting a special Ramadhan episode
for Magseven on NTV7, so this week will be a busy week of editing.

Looking forward to the weekend already.

Furry Friends Farm featured on Magseven

Magseven is a documentary program that airs every Sunday, 3.30pm

and it is a new show I have been assigned too as one of the producers.

For this Sunday's episode (24th July 2011), we did an episode on

Furry Friends Farm and the heroic founder Sabrina Yeap.

This woman works tirelessly to rescue stray animals and

give them a home at the Furry Friends Farm.

To see some really cute cats and be touched by Sabrina's courage,

please watch Magseven this Sunday at 3.30pm.
