A Traveller's Tale

 I sincerely apologise for my long absence, which can be further explained by the following reasons:

a) School exams -_-
b) My Internet's refusal to cooperate with me
c) Travelling halfway across the world
d) Catching a pesky cold

and I have to admit....

e) A combination of laziness and procrastination.

So right now I'm in a different country and I'll really try to post as often as I can.
That's why I'm simply asking you to bear with me for a little while  till I can supply you guys with the the long, normal, picture-packed rants that you're used to :)

Oh, by the way, I'm in India :)

AMA Fashion Favourites

The American Music Awards hraced us with its presence two days ago and sure, all the awards is stuff is great but let's be honest.
Girls like me here, we mostly care about the crazy, beautiful, gasp-worthy fashion.
I was a smidge disappointed this year to be frank, but here are my favourites :)

 I know what you;re thinking...Nicki Minaj?? In my fashion favourites list. But honestly this is the most normal and polished I've seen her. Okay yeah sure, the Barbie curls are there, the heavy makeup and her dress is still a neon lemon yellow, but it's simple compared to her other outfits. So kudos to her.

 Can I just say that the colour and the intricate lace-like design of this dress is just exquisite. However, I do feel like it looks better on the model and Carrie Underwood could have spiced up her hairstyle but it still looks gorgeous though.

 Ginnifer Goodwin looks like a sophisticated doll. There's no other way to describe it. First of all, I just wanna steal that dress off her back because it's classy and conservative but sparkly and fun (and pink!) at he same time. And the heels and makeup are just perfect. This was definitely one of my favourites of the night.

 Carly's dress is gorgeous and all but I personally feel she could have punked it up a little more. She looks beautiful and uppercrust but also a little..boring.

 I practically screamed when I saw Ke$ha because ohmigosh guys?? Who knew she had such a gorgeous persona underneath all that glitter and animalism?

Seriously, she looks the most beautiful I've ever seen her. Clearly, soft pink dresses were a trend that night and Kes$ha rocked it. It's also really cool that she edged it up a little with the black nail polish and those to-die-for heels.

 This one was also a little boring but P!nk still looks great guys.

...And my favourite starlet of all! Taylor Swift is golden and lovely as always but I especially ADORE her cute rolled bun. It's fantastic.

Yeeeeaah

Replay Wednesday: Little Things

Clearly, this is One Direction's best track, because it's just acoustic guitar, their beautiful voices and such honest lyrics.
Oh and Ed Sheeran wrote it.
Which basically makes it perfection to me.

Like it's made just for me
But bear this in mind
It was meant to be
And I'm joining up the dots
With the freckles on your cheeks
And it all makes sense to me 

 I know you've never loved
The crinkles by your eyes when you smile
You've never loved
Your stomach or your thighs
The dimples in your back at the bottom of your spine  

But I'll love them endlessly

And all those conversations
Are the secrets that I keep
Though it makes no sense to me
 I know you've never loved the sound of your voice on tape
You never want to know how much you weigh
You still have to squeeze into your jeans
But you're perfect to me

I won't let these little things slip out of my mouth
But if it's true,
It's you,
It's you,
They add up to

 Oh

And I've just let these little things slip out of my mouth,
Because it's you,
Oh it's you,
It's you,
They add up to
And I'm in love with you,
And all these little things,

...slip out of my mouth,
But if it's true,
It's you,
It's you,
They add up to,

In Focus: Jenny Packham

Jenny Packham is a British designer with a gift of creating the most beautiful, whimsical couture dresses that a girl could dream of wearing. And I'm not plucking those words out of the air - the creme de la crop of uppercrust society, Hollywood and even royalty agrees. Here are a few of my favourite gowns donned by some famous faces:

 Vanessa Hudgens in lovely floral dress at the Sucker Punch premiere. I love how she's made it her own by accessorising with her hippie jewelry and wearing a loose romantic curly hairstyle.

 Blake Lively stuns in a yellow ombre silk chiffon dress as Serena in Gossip Girl. 

She looks perfect. Just like an elegant New York tea garden wedding hostess should look.

 Katy Perry attends the Grammys in a fun and flirty pink ruffled number. I like it better on the runway

I am so in love with this dress its unexplainable. The beautiful lace back makes me think of an intricate Indian design and the flowy fabric in a most exquisite ocean blue is just perfect.  Kate Middleton looks like an elegant, tasteful, turquoise crystal champagne flute. In a good way of course.

I just posted these dresses because I think they represent everything that the Jenny Packham line is; etheeral, princess-like and supremely elegant.

Another shimmery number. I think it looks very royal ;) My favourite part would probably be the floaty shoulders though

I've always been a huge fan of Dita von Teese's style ('cause you know, I'm a big fan of fifties style and everything) and she looks beyond amaziing here. The dress fits in all the right places, makes her look taller and everything. Also, I love the soft colour and how it contrast with her red lips and the patterend shoulders and neck design just put the cherry on top.

I know this dress was a big crowd pleaser. Although I think it would've looked better on a teller person, Emma Roberts still carries it off pretty well. The silver design in the front makes me think of a metallic moon exploding into the night.

Very metaphorical of me to say, I know.

Again, I love the beautiful silvery detail on the champagne flow of the gown. Favourite part would be the draping of the top and the exquisitely designed shoulder. Definitely an Oscar-worthy dress, so kudos to Sandra Bullock.
