misslikey at lagoona beach

I’ve read somewhere old interview of Lauren DuPont, famous New York socialite and girl in style where she was asked what three items would she choose if she is stranded on some island. Don’t you despite those kinds of questions?! All of our lives we are tortured with choose word. Please. There's no necessity of answering on that. Lauren did answer like a true fashion diplomat; ˝Forget it. I would find a way to get off the island. That’s one island I don’t want to be on.˝
Since the season of brain torturing where to go what to do is coming somehow I am most thinking of Robinson’s Cruise type of getaway. Not just me, but lot of people lately are on personal with edgy trends that sometimes you really think is that all trashy and ripped clothes result of our states of minds. I mean we look like we are partying all the time. Should we put are minds in state of serenity sometimes? I mean I am socialite type of girl but every now and then it comes out my animalistic instinct of running. That’s probably reason of those weird dreams. And when I am running somewhere first thing I want to know is what place looks like so I can be in harmony with surrounding. That is our fashion animalistic instinct. Google is really a blessing. And you know, getaway on desert island isn’t that bad dream at all. My first allusion on abandoned island is Lagoona Beach. Don’t you worship that movie? Chic of nature where Brooke Shields stands in the sand in tiny little outfit with wind waving her hair. Since I would be on my desert island for couple of days I surely won’t have time to make my clothes like Emmeline and Richard. This year summer collections weren't filled with that earth touch like past years. You do remember a last year raffia sandals from Stella McCartney? Stella McCartney. Oh gosh I mention that name so many times that she is probably dreaming about me while having a nap in Hyde Park. Stella Stella
my deserted island must have list
Don't you adore the outnet of netaporter? Some fab buys can be found there, like this Stella's raffia flat sandals

Summer essential...white dress..use chiffon or cottoned shirt, dress, or long tee to be one minute chic

On the market now

Marc by Marc Jacobs Devore cotton dress on netaporter, cream dress with the ruffles found on polyvore , Alexander Wang long tee dress from lagarconne, crystal on chain neklace is from Bona Drag
Swimmsuit

This year I more into vintage swimmwear than ever. I love this ruffled vintage look like bikini from Anthropologie
and the beauty from Herve Leger for Max Azria is goody. Sure Richard would love to see that on Emmeline
p.s. Please don't fill your little heads with unuseful information, better watch them from the sun. Straw hats can be find on every market or store with the swimmwear so please bring your hat on le vacation especially if you are going on island!
How could I even forget...Where to pack all this kind of goodies? Moi fell in love with this navy striped weekend bag from Accessorize. This bag is icon, whether you use it like weekend or beach bag.

p.i.s.s. Hm Hmm so next time someone ask you what would you take on desert island list your list. Since I don't have enough space for more photos on list includ; avanturistic mood, chic long silk scarf, good book or cute boy.
And once again LOVE you all for reading misslikey

Cutting, ripping...hey where are my scissors?

Okay I promise I’ll stop with cutting after this. But just one more time. Please. Okay at least we are without bleacher this time. Seriously should I turn misslikey into “misslikey home made” or “misslikey do it by yourself”? It is funny how this cropped, ripped or bleached trends started. Seems that you just need to be creative. I am really laughing now because it will sound insane but do really designers want to sell their clothes? Is awareness of recession causing developing of the brands? Even Mr. Cavalli got mad at Alex the great Wang and Balmain's Christopher Decarnin so Italian started to rip pants on models. Oh Gosh I am really making a conspiracy theory here; well don't torture your smart heads with that, rather take scissors into the hand. So to make your vertical fringes what will you cut; leggings (pants) or dress?
1.Dress case;

Amber Valetta in Vogue Italia and Alexander Wang fall 09 ripped skeleton white dress
If you are not good with scissors you'll find attractive this dress from Bona Drag for very attractive 140$. Lovely knotted with striped tube underneath it looks a bit skeleton, don't you think?

2.Leggings/pants case
Inpiration; Rumi from FashionToast..Rumi already wore her American Apparel ripped leggings in 2008. Rumi Neely is really a muse. We love Rumi. And we love Erin Wasson

Not good with scissors? Well wait for Wang's fall collection to come in stores or go for ripped leggings from Singer22

p.s. This was another edgy post. Stop. I'm stuck lately. Stop
p.i.s.s. Since we need from time to time a little calm fashion next time I am taking you to one magic spot. So for little divines check on misslikey for a few days. Meanwhile my kitty kats do the cuty cut!

MFFA...misslikey's fashion fund award

Anyone can get all dressed up and glamorous but is how people dress in their off days, that is most intriguing. We fell in love with Alexander Wang in 2007. Why are we still breathless?
a)Street with influence of Haute couture is beyond cool.
b)His ability of making grunge feminine and soft makes him genius.
c)The idea that tshirt and jeans can be just as sexy and stylish as an evening gown is just revolutionary cause of its simplicity.
His muses are his Lower East Side neighbor, model Erin Wasson, and girl we absolutely adored in 2008, new Britt princess charming Alice Dellal. Britt just can scent good things. Why Alex is a good boy? Because of his statement that woman can be size 4 and experiment with size 10. My closet sometimes confuses even myself with palette of sizes that are placed there. I think sometimes I could dress 12 year old kid and the big lady that works in my bakery. So I don't expect from anyone to understand my size diversity. And those times when I am tripping beyond on what size to buy and when shopgirls are looking at Moi like she is not a normal person, I just remember of Alexander’s quote. Never mind, they don't get the HANGING THING. And with his new pre fall 09 collection Alex has unquestionably justified this year CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund prize.


p.s. Tell me you ain't in love with his personal style and beyond charming personality?! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w1sl9hpJV6Q
p.i.s.s. Is misslikey serious in this post cause she is sipping beyond Atinies (appletinies)? Maybe she has a hangover?!... Nooo..take it easy.. she is not Lohan. We are just ceremonial in a manner of special occasion. xoxo

Zip it up…….all you gotta do is zip it up!!!!

Zips are visible again?!
Oh, if you are old like me, well lady’s not supposed to reveal her age, but anyway;You reminisce of 90-ties?! All that dance and fabrics that misslikey totally no likey. Leave synthetics rest in peace but you should totally look out for your old clothes with zippers. Cause they are back again!! As little misslikey I used to play pull game with zipper so it was broken on every shirt and skirt. Fortunately for me, cause I hated them. But my mum didn’t. Okay don’t play the pull over game if you are over 19. It’s not a lady thing at all. And it's too expensive.

Who does it? Misslikey’s officially opinion is that Alexander the Great Wang well remembers of those metal zippers on every second wardrobe item. In Fall collection they are everywhere; on the front of the skirts, tops, even on shoes and pants.


Who did this before the A. W ? We saw it on Chloé dresses for Fall 2007 RTW.

Still available on net-a-porter.com

Who wants zippers in summer?


Check out Narcisco Rodriguez SS 2009 RTW

So girls, misslikey is saying ZIPPPPPPP IT UP! I put some combinations of adorable Wang skirt on Polyvore. Basically it can be paired with anything. Love this TopShop Love my bones Tee. And don’t remember. Only excuse to have broken zipper on Wang’skirt is clumsy boyfriend (read Geek)


p.s. If your old zipper skirt is in Charity now, like mine, maybe you should try to find it in second hand. It’s great possibility that was even yours J

p.i.s.s. Please DO NOT PVC unless If u are not fashionista with experience. Instead chic you’ll look sick.

BE CAREFUL with white. If you go too tight, only guys you will attract are guys from nursing home. Only because they will confuse you for nurse. Just Google zip dress and you’ll see.

I told yaaaa. Till next time Misslikey is saying bye bye!!
