Alexander McQueen of Indonesia

Guess who’s back?

Long time no see. I was very busy previous weeks. I'm drowning in my school work and preparations for the final exams. But now I have a little free time and I'm happy to work on my blog again.

One of my favourite movies is The Hunger Games. I adore Jennifer Lawrence, actually the whole cast is great, scenography is amazing and the costumes ... the costumes took my breath away! When I first watched The Hunger Games, I was like: »Wow, look at those clothes!« , but I didn't pay any attention on who made them. I'm a little bit angry not searching for the designers sooner!

So here is the second part of The Hunger Games and I must admit I didn't watch it yet. I watched its trailer for a 1000 times and again I was blown away because of the clothes.

Yesterday I was just randomly surfing the web when I saw the article with the title »Meet Tex Saverio - The Designer Behind Katniss' Wedding Dress In The Hunger Games Who's Already Dressed Lady Gaga« on the page Graziadaily.co.uk. So I've met Tex Saverio, he is awesome! I didn't actually meet him. Of course. This would be cool, but kind of impossible. I'm totally in love with his work and I decided that you have to meet him!

Just look at this gorgeous wedding dress that he made for Katniss. Metal, Swarovski crystals and chiffon make such a special effect together.

Of course there are also some other famous designers who made dresses for The Hunger Games. The movie’s costume designer Trish Summerville found Tex Saverio a while ago and thought he was the perfect one to create this dress. Trish was definitely right!

So who actually is Tex Saverio?

He was born in Jakarta in 1984. In September 2005, Saverio won a national award in the Mercedes-Benz Asia Fashion Award and became a well-known designer.

As I said before, in my previous posts, I'm kind of obsessed with Alexander McQueen. I'm in love with his high fashion and ready-to-wear and scarfs and I love Sarah Burton too. Everybody knows McQueen was a hooligan of English fashion. Tex got a very flattering new name – he is named Alexander McQueen of Indonesia! Isn't that awesome?

Lady Gaga was Alexander McQueen's good friend and she often dressed in his designs. So, I'm not surprised that she loves Tex Saverio.

Here are some of the Tex Saverio’s other designs, I think his work is amazing. What do you think? Did you ever hear about him?

Sales, Sales Everywere

Hello everybody!

Sales are here! I went shopping the other day (again, yes) and I found some really nice stuff with awesome prices. Let's take a look:

My mum found this gorgeous dress for me in H&M, I totally fell in love with it. I don't actually know the real price, but it was only 15 € on sale! I will wear it today on my granny's 80th birthday party, the outfit post will come soon. (the dress looks enormous on the picture,
but it's the size M)

This is a chinese inspired tank top, it has a chinese dragon made out of faux leather lines and a gold chain. It's kind of flowy. I got it from H&M and paid only around 5 €.

I'm in love with these New Yorker's sparkly shorts. I've been looking for them for toooo long now and finally found them! I got them for 15 €. I'm planning to wear them on the New year's evening or maybe not (I have one really cute never worn dress, or should I buy something new?).

Last but not least there are my new high heels! I bought them in Humanic for 20 €, the original price was 90!!! 16 cm heel does not spoil comfort. The texture of the zebra part is furry, like zebra skin or something.

REVIEW: H&M Blueberry Face Mask

I went on a shopping trip to Italy with my mum and I must say I got some really nice stuff. Since we don't have H&M cosmetics in Slovenia I decided to buy some of their cute products abroad. And so I found this great H&M Blueberry Burst Face Mask. It's a nourishing mask with antioxidants, which are very very important for our skin. It's only 1,95 € and you can use it twice.


It contains extracts of blueberry, raspberry, cranberry and grape as well as Aloe vera juice and peach kernel oil.

1.    Application: it's easy and not even a little bit messy, simple to spread it all over your face and the texture is super smooth.
2.    Filling: the mask is refreshing and cooling.
3.    Smell: the smell of the blueberries is very strong, so relaxing!
4.    Colour: you just have to love the sparkling pink.
5.    Removing: after 10-15 minutes it's time to wash it off your face. You can do this with worm water.
6.    Results: skin is fresh, calm and soft

I will definitely buy this face mask again!

You can also make a great blueberry mask at home:
All you need are fresh blueberries, honey and some Greek yoghurt. You just have to smash the blueberries and mix them with one Greek yoghurt and 3 spoons of honey. Apply the mixture on your face and wash it off after 30 minutes.
