time to realize .

Okay, every year when you go to school alot of the times in the first week, your teachers ask you stuff about you like what are your hobbies, your future job, etc. Of course, my answer was always something involving me and wanting to be a fashion designer. I would cringe every time some girl would say 'Oh I want to be a fashion designer.' I would look at the girl and just shake my head. It seems as the years go on, more and more people answer their teacher with wanting to be a fashion designer. NOT EVERYONE CAN BE A DESIGNER whether it be fashion, interior, whatever. You have to be at least somewhat creative and innovative and half the people who expressed they wanted to go into fashion had no creativity at all ; they just followed everyone else. Like come on, who wants to buy reruns of Baby Phat when most of its clothes are already ugly ?! Now some people, rarely, that wanted to be in fashion actually could do it but others were just reaching. Thinking you're 'fly' or whatever doesn't mean you can go into that industry, its not that easy. I recently did a few sketches, nothing big this time .




No patterns, coloring, shading, etc. I was pretty lazy. The writing on the side just describes the outfit in color, fabric and everything else. More to come .

black hearts on my cardigan .

Comme des Garcons has emerged into the limelight of the fashion scene recently even though it was started back in 1969 by Rei Kawakubo. But ever since its collabo with H&M in Fall 2008, it has received much more attention. But that wasn't the only collabo Kawakubo took on. Nike, Levi's Chrome Hearts, Louis Vuitton, Lacoste and many more have also worked with this brand on different projects. Rei, the creator, has established more than 100 shops for her line which means 'like some boys' in French. Stars such as Katie Holmes, Samantha Ronsen, Kanye West and of course, Drake who shouted out the featured black cardigan in his song 'Congratulations, have been seen wearing this line. Not only has Rei taken on clothing but she has also created a line of unisex perfumes.







One of the most familiar parts of this line is the PLAY collection which has been seen in alot of media with the familiar heart logo. They run for more than just a regular tee but with such a nice design, people are sure to spend their money's worth on this line.

turning me on .

Alot of people first became familiar with Melody Ehsani's work in the Keri Hilson 'Turning Me On' video with her rings. Now more people have been spotted wearing her designs, including celebrities.

Here, Keri Hilson and Amber Rose are spotted wearing 'The Chain Ring' designed by Melody Ehsani .


Christina Milian wore 'The Matrix Earrings' on the cover and in a shoot for King Magazine in the February Big 50th issue. While Christina Milian and Kelis's earrings look the same, they prove to be different. Instead of 'The Matrix Earrings', Kelis rocks a pair of the 'Fatima Geometric''s at an appearance .

Recently, new pics of Mya have been released and she's seen here wearing 'The Javier Heel' which is sure to be a trendsetter. Many other celebs such as Ciara, Rihanna, Angela Simmons and Alicia Keys have also shown to be a fan of Melody's work. And I'm sure this brand will become very mainstream . You can purchase Melody Ehsani's accessories and shoes at www.melodyehsani.com or www.karmaloop.com
