New Zealand Fashion Week 2012

As most of you probably know NZFW is just around the corner and there is a great line up of designers showing of their gorgeous new looks and designs ready.

The designer list is full of huge names from the fashion industry and also consists of many up and coming fabulous designers ! Trelise Cooper will be there showing off her main brand but also her pretty and chic new brand "Coop". Zambesi is another brand walking the runway, which will be a real treat, but also Stolen Girlfriends Club which I am sure will be showing us all the latest season in the most creative and intriguing way possible. The international designer showing his collection this year will be Charlie Brown, a brand from Australia. There are also many other brands along with Annah Stretton, Ruby and Huffer that will be showcasing their designs.

The casting for models was held two weeks ago and it was a morning of music, gorgeous girls and walking.

A Weekly Fantasy: Picture Perfect Plate

My Weekly Fantasy this week is to one day in my life be able to create something this declicious and picture perfect. Every photo I see with any sort of food in it looks absolutely beautiful and the picture is taken amazingly. If I was able to bake something that amazing, it would be a dream come true and I would love to capture it on camera.

The Fabulous Designers of the 21st Century

I have recently fallen in love with many designers and all their gorgeous creations! After hitting the shops big time while on a relaxing family holiday in Hawaii, I now have many new favourite designers!

The first is Kate Spade. I think Kate Spade produces the most classy and colourful things I have ever seen. Everything about her brand and her shop is visually stunning and attractive to look at. I bought this gorgeous iphone 4 case and a bright orange wallet!

I think this cute little video they made to promote the brand is just adorable!

I also love the brand Juicy Couture. I think everything they create have such a chic and playful look about them and I could just buy everything in their store!

Look at this sneak peek of the Juicy Couture Fall Campaign Film for 2012 :)

These are most definately my two favourite brands in the whole world!

The Gorgeous Sheer

The Sheer look is a huge trend at the moment! So many designers are creating fabulous fashion items with sheer involved! Personally I love the look and would thoroughly enjoy wearing a partly sheer dress for a classy night out with friends or family!

These are wonderful examples of the sheer look when it has been shown on the runway.

Candace Swanpoel looks absolutely stunning in this black sheer top. She has tied it together with a gorgeous fur jacket.

This gorgeous red dress that Taylor Swift wore on the red carpet has a partly sheer bodice which I think looks very glamourous. It really suits her figure.

Weekly Fantasy

This weeks Weekly Fantasy is "Walking the Catwalk". One day I really hope to walk in New York Fashion Week! Hopefully I will be able to walk for all the amazing designers that show their gorgeous designs in fashion week. I would love to have all the beautiful makeup that you always see on the models in photos from different fashion shows. All the divine hair styles that the models are styled with are always incredible! It would be a dream!

I would love to walk for Victorias Secret one day! They always look like they are having so much fun and it just looks amazing! I would also love to walk for Kate Spade, Juicy Couture and Chanel one day!

Achieve An Organized Life

I am one of those people that tries to be organized and does for about a week and then I stop completely and everything gets messy again! But now with Kikki k's organization tips I am so excited to start my new organized lifestyle! So I have decided to let you know all about these gorgeous ideas about how to de-clutter your life!

1. Create a Vision Board:

A vision board is a place full of inspiration. It holds your creativity, and all your passions! You can fill it up with lots of motivating photos of people you look up to, things you love and just generally pretty photos! You can add your goals for the year and dreams for the future! You can add beautiful coloured ribbon and hang up cards people have sent you! You are free to design it any way you want, let your mind free! I am planning to buy this Kikki k. Vision board, which is a gorgeous white wooden framed pinboard.

2. Get the right desk accessories and tools.

To be organized you need to have helpful and gorgeous tools for your desk. A calender is a must as you can write down all your dates such as birthdays, parties, familly events, school work hand in dates, the list could go on! You also need some gorgeous magazine holders, which you can hold really anything in, from school notes to little extras that you need or have no where to put. Of course you need the essential pencils, pens and a stationary holder as well! Kikki.k has lots of pretty stationary that I know would add the perfect dash of colour to your desk.

3. Start a Weekly Habits book.

This book is a place where you can just make a change and stick too it! It gives you the opportunity to find those nasty little habits that you can never get rid of and finally leave them behind. You can use any plain book or you can use Kikki.k's Weekly Habit Pad.

4. Get A Diary and Start Using It.

By getting a diary you will be able to keep track of every little thing that you need to remember such as school homework, little jobs that need to be done such as the shopping or buying a birthday present for your friend or family. A diary is so handy and I know that I have had one before and I just didn't use it, but motivate yourself to become an organized person by using one of these gorgeous diaries from Kiki.k you could even get a plain one and cover it in your own photos!!

There are lots absolutely divine ways to organize your life you just need to finally get started and it will lead on from there. Have fun!
