I Love Kilts

Kilts are such stylish and iconic garments. It's a traditional dress of men and boys in Scotland and has been adapted as a fashionable male clothing in the recent years.

Guys, would you "dress to kilts"? I definitely would.. and I think they are quite relevant this season.  xx

My Audrey Hepburn Tattoo

No pain, no gain! Yeah?! That's right, I just got inked! Today I decided to get me a tattoo instead of going on a shopping spree. Lol! I still can't believe I got a fkn tattoo on my arm and I'm loving every bit of it. For me it is the ultimate fashion accessory, but not just any random tattoo though... I got a fashion and film legend immortalised on my skin, an iconic portrait of Audrey Hepburn. She is the epitome of sublime beauty... Unforgettable charm and elegance. Her style, timeless! It continues to inspire women today. I definitely made the right tattoo choice, and it looks fkn perfect on me! I cant wait to get my next one... Xx

Maroon 5 Payphone



Maroon 5 just released their new single Payphone. hmmm. quite a likable tune. The band always comes up with such unexpected collaborations e.g. Rihanna, Christina Aguilera, and now Wiz Khalifa. Well, I've always been an aficionado of the band. So, what are your views on this fusion and the song itself? xx

Atelier Versace Spring/Summer 2012



You guys must have seen this already, thought I'd blog about it. Wow this show is breathtaking! A parade of the goddesses wearing glittering garments that are intricately made to perfection. Don't you just love the bling and the sophisticated detail in each dress? Everything from shoes to makeup are sublimely magical. Only the glamorous can wear them. Oh and Karlie Kloss, she is an emblem of extreme beauty! The Aphrodite of them all.

Tell me what you guys think :) xx

Bird Of Paradise






I'm currently obsessed with Givenchy's Spring/Summer 2012 Bird Of Paradise collection. This Riccardo Tisci creation is a display of boldness and style. The lush prints are so modern chic, clearly a motif for manliness. Hmmm.. I'm in love with them graphic trousers.. Xx

Yellow Plastics


Friday the 13th hmmm what could go wrong on this day? Well, its also Happy National Kiss day... so pucker up them lips and give me some shoe love. You will never be unlucky in a fabulous yellow shoes. Them Melissa wedges are an absolute eyecatcher. A spring/summer item, indeed! I'm loving the aztec prints on it, such a trend this year. Its funny how people stare and approach Cyrel when she's strutting them plastic yellows in town... (if you could only see their faces and reactions LOL!) ... And according to her it is super comfy wearing them. What a lovely treat for your feet. A fun addition to every ladies' wardrobe. Xx

Leather Cravings!

Celine Bag
Sophie Hulme Satchel


Oh hello Celine! My oh my this bag is the ultimate leather kit! It surely is a black beauty.. I was able to caress it at Selfridges and it absolutely feels lush! Very chic even without a logo in sight.. Unfortunately it is almost impossible for me to afford it... fkn £2000 plus!!! Waaah! Such luxury...

Lookin around Selfridges, I found the next best thing. This Sophie Hulme satchel is a charm. Perfect for my bits and bob... Very desirable and looks classy with the brass attachment. Plus it comes in black, tan, petrol, and yellow. The price is reasonable at £225.

If you're on a budget, you could always go for them synthetics at H&M. At £9.99 this small black bag looks really stylish... I love its resemblance to the Celine bag. Dont you just love H&M?!

My Bestfriend's Wedding!

Awww weddings! Ain't it cute when two individuals decide to get married and vow to make each other's lives miserable... Lol! Joking!

This year has been great so far, bein part of 2 special weddings. The most recent one was Cyrel's big day, which I played a significant role of giving her away to the groom.. and of course making sure she is sublimely gorgeous as ever.. (sporting a Lauren Bacall inspired hairstyle, and subtle makeup for a classic look)

The wedding... erm.. hmmm.. It wasn't the big and festive wedding but it sure is exceptional and memorable.. Bursting with love and happiness from the blissful couple. It has been an absolute joy to witness them testify their love to each other... Aww..What fools... haha! Joking again.. Love them to bits! ;))

Here are photos of the cheerful husband and wife.. And me wearing a pink Vivienne Westwood shirt with a yellow Reiss tie, and of course the braces completes the look. Xx

Isn't she gorgeous?


the happy couple

me and Cendy, she also got married last January

I'm not liking my chubby cheeks.. hah!

Chili CORN carne!

Last night we had this lovely chili con carne with rice and garlic bread.. Mmm oh so yum yum! One of my fave! Haven't had home cooked chili con carne for ages. Mmm brings back memories. Oh! I remember one time when me and Cyrel was in Belfast. We were having dinner at Chiquito, a mexican resto. Apparently it was her first time to eat this dish and she was like "mmm I cant seem to find them corns" and I was like "its chili con carne darling, not chili CORN carne!" :))

First blog post!

Here goes... Hi everyone! Just decided to start my own blog, feeling a bit inspired lately. :)) This blog is gonna be about my first love, which is... F... not fashion.. :-p FOOD!!! Then fashion of course... music, films, travel, party, my HAIR! LOL! ...anything interesting really.. But I guess it will be mainly about fashion.. I'm very passionate about it. Exploring different fashion styles, from prints to pop of colour and I happen to love ladies fashion (I don't wear them duh!?) That means you're going to see loads of posts about my best friend Cyrel. She is my fashion partner-in-crime, and I like styling her up... We love dressing up for whatever occasion, from casual to formal or even costumes... I will be posting pics of the fashion items I love, and pics of my day to day look..

You might be thinking I'm a psychopath with the name I chose for my blog. Chill! its just the fkn lyrics from a Nicki Minaj song. I think its quite catchy... ;)  ..... update: (7th April 2012 renamed my blog from haterskillyourself.blogspot.com to fashiorion.blogspot.com) fashion + Orion. Another update: final blogname is fashioneclair :))

Anyway bye for now.. Ta! Xx
