Introducing: Alicia Lee from WillowWillow

20 April 2012

Hey lovely readers

Today, I’m excited to be able to bring you an interview with none other than fabulous Chinese fashion designer, Alicia Lee! Alicia’s label WillowWillow includes both fiercely beautiful couture pieces (remember that beautiful mermaid dress and Queen of Spades look I showed you?), as well as a sophisticated ready-to-wear line. Here she shares some of her very frank insights about her experience as a designer and the Chinese fashion industry – I hope you find it as interesting as I do!

I’ve also included some photos from the last two shoots we did together – photos by Mirko Iannace and Adriana Lica. And if you live in Beijing, you can check out more at her store in Sanlitun!

Summer photoshoot fun!

13 April 2012

Darling readers, please forgive me!

I have been terrible with posting recently as things have been so hectic since arriving in London. Living out of a suitcase, moving around the city while I try to find an apartment, and dashing off to interviews – I’ve hardly had anytime to take photos, let alone blog or even read my favourite blogs! Being in London is amazing though – this city has a real buzz about it, and I love how cosmopolitan it is! You can meet people from all over the world here, and there is always so much going on. Oh, and did I mention I ran into one of my favourite bloggers in Mango on Tuesday?! When I’m a bit more settled I promise to start sharing more of it all with you!

In the meantime, I wanted to show you the results of a ‘summer’ themed photoshoot we did during my last week in Beijing. It was another fun collaboration with Adriana Lica, and one of my lovely friends and a super talented makeup artist, Grace Ma. Grace is part of the MeiLi Style team (check out my post on MeiLi here, if you haven’t already!) and is such a sweetheart! Which shot do you like best?

RalfebyRalf Photoshoot – Behind The Scenes

12 January 2012

Happy Thursday lovely readers! I’m feeling a bit shattered from a sleepless night last night, but bringing a smile to my face is anticipation of this weekend’s Mellowparks 10th Redbull Nanshan Open (China’s biggest international snowboard competition). I’m looking forward to getting out of the city and watching the riders compete!

But back to today’s post. Just before Christmas I was so excited (and extremely flattered!) to be asked to be the model for a RalfebyRalf photoshoot. Ralf is a talented and super lovely designer hailing from Germany, who I have worked with before (do you remember?). You can see more of his work here and here. The shoot was last Saturday, and yes I was veryyy nervous! Lucky for me, the team working on the shoot couldn’t have been a nicer group of people, and we ended up having a lot of fun! Here are the ‘behind-the-scenes’ photos for you, and I hope I will have the final officials shots to share with you soon. Aren’t the designs beautiful? I particularly loved all the dreamy galaxy prints.Let me know your thoughts!

Sweet make-up artist Kai, working his magic!
