CONSCIOUS COLLECTION – SUSTAINABLE STYLE AT H&M

It’s sweet, cute, refreshing, eco-friendly and fashionable! It’s the new Conscious Collection at H&M The next successor of the Garden Collection (2010). The collection is made of sustainable materials as biological cotton, TENCEL and recycled polyester.

”It’s not just about organic cotton any more, the possibilities for creating a complete fashion statement with eco smarter materials are huge now. By designing recurring Conscious Colletions we have the opportunity to show in a variety of ways what’s possible using more sustainable fabrics,” says Ann-Sofie Johansson, H&M Head of design . ”Shades of white are the season’s biggest fashion trend and it feels right for this collection. White creates a romantic feeling with lace and Broderie Anglaise, but it is also the basic colour in a sporty, relaxed style and in a preppy tailored look for men.”

Womenswear is inspired by an updated romantic style in which blouses, tunics and T-shirts with Broderie Anglaise are a key trend. Tiered dresses are perfect for day or more dramatic Grecian gowns for night. Long floaty skirts are key as are cut-off shorts. The collection also includes the perfect white blazer and pleated trousers for a more minimalist look as well as Broderie Anglaise and lace lingerie.

The collection is available on 14 april.

Please, be My Princess… ♔

My Princess‘ is a Korean drama that is aired in January 2011. This show contains 16 episodes. It will be aired two episodes each week (wednesday & thursday). You can watch the episodes on Mysoju or on YouTube (Raw / Sub). Most of the vids will be aired the next day with subs or you can wait till the weekend and watch the two episodes rightaway. Sit back and enjoy your two hours of Asian drama❣

The first time I saw this show on Mysoju, I was sold! O god, the cast is like, !@#$%^&*… Lee Seol (Kim Tae Hee) is gorgeous and she’s so funny❣ Ü Park Hae Young (Song Seun Hun) is a hot bastard with a good heart (he says ‘no’, I say ‘yes’). I like his (new) hair✁❣ I kinda hate Oh Yoon-Joo (Park Ye Jin), she’s ugly and her hair✁ is like ‘EW’❣ Blegh, don’t like her at all❣ Aight, and then we have the professor, Nam Jung-Woo (Ryu Soo Young), the more he get older, the more he’s charming❣ He’s a good guy❣ But I think he don’t ‘love-love’ the Princess , because he thinks she’s only the Korean History. Also I think he still believes that he loves Oh Yoon-Joo, because of their past…

Oh my, I totally forgot to tell you the plot of the show❣ I am so sorry❣ I hope you will watch this show after I gave só much information. ‘Information’, you say… Ah no, it’s like ‘HURRY AND WATCH THIS SHOW RIGHT NOW’❣ Just kidding. :$
