The Real Devil in Prada
Any fashion lover should watch this documentary. The biggest, thickest and heaviest issue of Vogue, The September Issue chronicles the life and work of Anna Wintour as they closed Vogue’s biggest September issue with Sienna Miller on the cover. Love her or hate her, there is no denying that the real devil is a genius in what she does and perhaps the most influential woman in fashion.
Some of the highlights include the perennial ambivalent relationship between Vogue’s creative director Grace Coddington and Anna Wintour, fashion’s new IT boy Thakoon, Anna’s reaction to Yves Sain Laurent’s head designer Stefano Pilati’s f/w collection (it’s a classic Anna Wintour icy stare) and Sienna Miller’s rejected “too much teeth” cover and the biggest irony of having a daughter who has no interest in fashion and Wintour’s self-confessed weakness. It’s hilarious, witty and downright fashionable.
Watching it is may be the most fashionable way of welcoming September!

New York, New York
I ♥ New York. My first visit was during the Holidays in December 2007 and the city was packed- with tourists! It seems that all the New Yorkers packed their bags and went somewhere sunny so I didn’t really get to see NYC native fashion on the streets. I’m planning to visit again July 2012 (summer) so I can visit the other places that I wasn’t able to go to like MoMa, SoHo, Greenwich Village, Central Park and try out the smorgasbord of different dishes, chic restaurants, watch the Broadway play WICKED and of course shop! And I really have to scope the born and bred New York street style fashion. Summer will be a great opportunity to strut my stuff and take notes and snapshots of the city that never sleeps.

I wore a chic Chanel like double breasted tweed jacket by Ilaya Couture from the Archaeology section in Power Plant mall. This jacket got a lot of double takes on the street and I even overheard one girl saying “I love her jacket!” Now, who says a tropical country can’t make a stylish winter garment? If you’re planning to go somewhere cold for the Holidays, Ilaya offers a variety of jackets in brocade and tweed fabrics that are chic and affordable. This jacket is an instant classic and will be a great heirloom in my closet for my future daughters to enjoy. More

Gaga at 25
I love themed parties! My friends and I never missed out on the chance of dressing up. For my friend Mini’s 25th birthday soiree, she decided to pay hommage to the infamous fashion rule breaker LADY GAGA. Her avante-garde style, red carpet headliner looks and musical ingenuity makes her a living icon. We love her style and as a tribute we have our own versions of Lady Gaga’s styles with a more wearable take. We focused more on accessories like headpieces, tights and bold eye make-up. Check out the pictures from my friend’s birthday bash and get ideas how you can welcome your quarter life in STYLE.

GIRL ON TOP
Topshop fanatic Trisha Chua unveils her extensive Topshop dress collection and favorite ensembles to closet raider!
“My entire disposable income goes to Topshop! I’m even a member of their loyalty program – in Malaysia! But I’ve recently listed down a lot of clothes from online shops that sell stuff from Japan. I plan on buying them soon!"
I’ve always loved Trisha’s style.
Her unique fashion sense is a constant head turner in L’Oreal Philippines headquarters and is in sync as Maybelline’s Product Manager. From her cutesy dresses paired with boots or knee-high socks with pumps, her Hello Kittyish vibe makes L’Oreal a living runway and also earned her a spot as one of Meg Magazine’s 10 Best Dressed women in 2009. She was a hands down choice to be the maiden feature for closet raider! Let’s take a closer look as Trisha unveils her closet’s greatest finds and models her favorite looks
