Tabur (0.5cm)

Bawah and Sleeves

*attention fellow beaders: It's best to use bead colour that is contrasting to the background - so the colour will 'pop out', as the tabur is quite thin. and use labuci to give the effortless shine*

What happen when you mix Gossip Girl and Lady Gaga?

Career at Tiffany's

What happens when a girl is unemployed and bored?

she ends up on the Career page of Tiffany's & Co.! Yes, I am actually considering it! well, i was curious. I mean wouldn't it be cool to work somewhere u like. somewhere u want to be, yet your qualification is still useful. I mean i dont have a degree in Jewellery Designs or Diamonds (haha itll be cool if there is such thing as Phd in Diamonds), but im sure there is a finance department to control the millions from their revenues...

So according to Tiffany UK... they currently need senior analysts for international merchandising! Uuuuu~ while Tiffany US needs Lead Analysts - distributed systems, store manager (hah!), operation assistant! wow. who knew. That sure is awesome! Time to dream. Besides, (Eggshell) Blue is the colour of dreams~

Just because...

Hi you guys,

Sorry for going MIA for a while. It does not give any reason for me to not blog. Its not that I have nothing to blog, in fact its the opposite! I have so many things to say that I dont even have anytime to start, sit down and type! Fashion forever!!! Haha. *out*

November has always been an important month for me. A lot of birthday of my loved ones and close friends and ofcourse favourite designers...

Emilio Pucci was born yesterday! in 1914. Did you know? Unlike most designers, he come to fashion in a different way. He was an eligible bachelor, u know, straight (:P), of an aristocrat descendent sp?, a PhD in Social Science! And an athlete! competed in the 1934 Winter Olympics! awesome right??? I know, Jackpot for girls! hahahaha! He was known as the 'style conscious Romeo' , 'The Italian Stallion'. *swoon*

Anyway, what happen was, he insisted to design for the olympics costumes. i knowww... and after the olympics, one of his gf, or was it his gf at that time~ was wearing his jacket! and their picture ended up on a magazine! I think it was Harper's Bazaar. And lets just say, that jacket, was the beginning of his fashion empire as womens start requesting that jacket! I cant find that picture online yet. But if I find it ill post it. So anyway, apparent pucci was the first person to work in his family after over a thousand year! *ka-ching*

Coool huh?? from olympics to now! Picture above: is a vintage pucci. gorgeous. the abstracts and colour. Now pucci is run by his daughter. with most recent designer, Matthew Williamson as the design director. Pucci died in 1992.

Hugs. Rai.

Assalamualaikum Everybody~

Customer wants it to be fancy. I love fancy designs. Especially on plain fabrics! The design choices are endless! And she also wanted labuci for flowers. And she also requested for the design to be according to the colour of the kain (dark grey) no colourful, so I used silver, white, and grey with a hint of blue. And ofcourse, a sprinkle of Swarovski Crystal as the finishing touches.

I have no clue how to watermark my photos! Need help.

Hugs.

So many things, So little time.

Just because I'm quiet doesnt mean im up to nothing.

Hi Guys! Its good to be back! Well not yet. I have an interview tomorrow morning with one of the leading audit company. *shrieks* I am nervous beyond words. Then another one in the afternoon! I had a written test a few days ago for my dream job in my dream place (nervous jua.) but glad the written test is over and got the result. =D AND another written test in 2 weeks time! The test was tiringggg. By the time im done, my brain is fried! balik tarus crash and sleep.

So yess.. I have been busy. Very busy. Its so sad that I have to cut down my designing and beads sewing time for all these. But I just have to do it. (Wouldnt it be cool if i have a tailor shop right now and just design and have ppl to sew the beads for me?) Tailor shop - one of my dreams. Jangantah brabis, start small.

OK! I beaded a few baju and made tonnes of sketches. Yo know when the idea starts pouring you just cants stop. just draw draw draw. I still have a few people that I owe sketches to. Its coming. owh and I hopefully will meet Nisaa from The AN store for some beads this saturday. I shall let you guys know.
