Fall's Trend Alerts: Fur, Fur, and Fuzz!!

Raccon Fur, Faux Fur, any fur! Just wear it this fall and you are so on trend!!

All of the looks above is from Mcqueen's Fall Ready to Wear 2011 collection. Notice the Fur Hat at the third look, I really want to wear something like that (Our weather doesn't allow it though). The zipper leggings are making a comeback too with Mcqueen.

Now the REAL buzz is about the Fuzz, those soft tochy fabrics is the most chic and elegant way to cover up this Fall!

From left to right are Bottega Veneta, DVF, DVF, and Bottega Veneta again. All from their RTW Fall 2011 collections. :D

I am loving the Bottega Veneta Fur Fuzz coat!! This fall is all about the statement coats and keeping the rest of your look simple!! ;D

Prada's curved snake heels

These heels are pretty nice. Prada managed to make curved heels without looking like Mcqueen's Alien heels. The colours are so fun too. I actually like the one on the right a lot. I love how it looks, the curved heel, the button, and I love "Mary Jane" heels anyways.

 The Prada Snake Heel are for $990 at Prada boutiques.

Jours Apres Lunes - The World has gone mad!

Who in the world wants to see a four year old wearing lingerie? I think it is inappropriate for a child to wear a bra let alone lingerie!!! The fashion industry may go a bit wild sometimes but this is off limits! A child should not be seen and modeled in lingerie. But some people may think otherwise. The French company Jours Apres Lunes creates "loungerie" for children of the ages 4 up to12. This idea is just too disturbing.

Wishlist: Miu Miu Glitter Ankle Boots

I usually make these long "Season Wishlists" including everything I want to buy for the season! And for this Fall I need those gold Miu Miu glitter ankle boots. It is currently on top of my wishlist! I would pair it up with jeans and a blazer or even a dress! It'll totally glam up my look!

Fall's Trend Alerts: Go Retro!!

Frome left to Right: Gucci Dress, Gucci Coat, Miu Miu Coat

Yup! What is trendy for this Fall is what we like the most, Retro!!

Me: How did you start illustrating?
Mona: If by illustrating you are talking about the digital kind then i guess it started just to pass the time while waiting for an oil painting to dry or for a sketch to be ready. i thought its fun and i will not be needing any papers or wasting any colors.

Me: What inspires you and how would you describe your style?
Mona: Everything beautiful around me inspires me, and I love that I am experimenting different techniques and materials. No limitations, no rules I would like to think I’m a little bit of everything.

Me: I know that you have a website; can you tell us a little about it??
Mona: Yes, I named it Psychomagic because art is a psychological thing you can’t just hold a brush whenever you want to and just start painting you need to look deep inside of you seek inspiration and it will show in the piece when you’re done just like magic to people. They will get to feel what you felt and it will show in the colors and the strokes… psychomagical!

Me: What tips can you share on making a name for yourself as an illustrator?
Mona: Well I can’t allow myself to give any right now since I am just starting and getting to know this world I'm trying my best just to enjoy my art with no pressure.

Me: Any last words of advice for anyone just starting out as an illustrator?
Mona: Do not limit yourself, try all different things even if you fail just keep on trying and learn to accept criticism before you learn anything else, because criticism is your only way up!
