Today I was randomly browsing through DeviantArt (www.deviantart.com) when I came upon an artist called Noel Cruz who paints on 3D canvases, namely dolls. So I browsed through his gallery, expecting dolls drawn over with permanent markers and lips gorily painted with red ink. But instead, what I saw was:

and

I seriously stared at that Angelina Jolie doll for a full 2 minutes until I managed any words at all. And when they did come out, they were the likes of: "OMG" "WOW" "Amaaazing!!"
I am seriously so amazed by his talent! How can anyone paint on such a small area of "canvas"? And so amazingly, to boot? I am stunned, absolutely stunned.
I heard that the Angelina doll was sold for, like, $3500 on ebay. If I have cash like that, I'd definitely invest too (too bad I don't).

After months of looking at the same blog layout, I finally decided to stop being a lazy cow and find some css. I admit I was a bit sneaky and checked out a few of your layouts and where you got them from (hehe) and I found one I really liked at tillyness. I kind of played around with the background image and codings. I'm not too sure about the background though. Is it too plain? Tell me what you think!

Mathias Lauridsen is now my male model crush. His looks are so stunning!
He's got that dangerous eye thing going on, which I think is really tempting. I would hate having him as a brother - I wouldn't be able to go out with him then! I feel sorry for his sisters, if he has any.

I tested around with nail ideas today and this is what I came up with. Kind of an invert french manicure. I think I'll try polkadots next week :D

LOL you're probably thinking "Summer Going-out Outfit"? But it's not Summer anymore! I actually made this combination at the start of Summer, but I never posted it so it got lost and I forgot about it blah blah. Hopefully this outfit can also be worn in chillier days too? I guess it depends on the thickness of your skin :D

It's been quite some time since I last posted a Victoiree Style Check, and today seemed a good day as any to post one again. This time, I opted for the theme of "Summer Shopping Outfit". As a girl who loves to shop, I've always been careful to dress casually when I do my shopping. For instance, a flowy white above-the-knees dress with ballerinas and a big handbag; this outfit is simple and very easy to get out of when you're trying out something. Wearing a beaded silk top with ten necklaces and a belt as well as skin-tight jeans would be quite a struggle to get out of. This Style Check is an outfit I put together of a typical shopping outfit, I would definitely wear when I do my shopping.
I hope you like it :)

It's been a while since I last posted a Victoiree Style Check, so this one took me pretty long to do :P or maybe I'm just searching for excuses :)
My favourite color at the moment is purple, which is why I was so attracted to Miss Hilton's bag (since when did her legs become SO skinny??). I created two similar outfits, both with gorgeous purple bags :) I hope you like this!

And that boy is namely Fernando Torres!

Ah isn't he just adorable??
He plays for the Spanish team in the EM. And they just won 2-1 against Sweden!
The picture above seriously doesn't do him justice :)

Guess who the little girl next to the infamous Grinch is?

ready for the truth? Here it is...

It's Taylor Momsen!
Yes, little Jenny Humphrey from Gossip Girl! Some of you probably already know this and think that I'm this freakish naive girl, but i was really shocked!
I always like her cute character in the Grinch, but I seriously had no idea that she was Jenny. Shock shock shock.

Lately I've been very obsessed with pop colors: jeans, bags, dresses etc so I immediately fell in love with Nicole's complete black outfit with a pop colored Chanel bag. The style is elegant, simple and very cute. I created two similar outfits according to Nicole's both with pop colored bags. LOL I know it's summer and that it's boiling outside and that these outfits would seriously be hated by anyone wearing it in such weather, but I seriously couldn't resist :P
Hope you like 'em!

With Spring comes florals and with florals comes a new set of dresses to add to your wardrobe :) I really like how runways are bringing back the obviousness of spring with its symbols - patterns and flowery dresses! As an inspiration (mostly from trendsetters like Agyness Deyn and the Anna Sui fashion show) I decided to create two different looks with floral dresses too!
The first one is a casual day look with a simple flowing look. The second one is suitable for a night event or a daring clubbing night with friends. I'm not too sure about the color combinations though, so I'd love to hear what you think!

I just watched the Twilight trailer after having read in your blogs about it coming out. And I have to say that Robert Pattinson is perfect and that Kirstin Stewart is a damn good Bella.
Apparently, we should all bring barf bags with us to the cinemas when we watch the film, as there is so much chemistry between the two that a lot of "hyperventilation" will be going on (Stephenie Meyer's words, not mine!) Hopefully, Austria will actually PLAY it in the cinemas, as it often is picky and doesn't do so :(

I loved the bright runway look, so I decided to make it realway! I started the outfit by choosing bright yellow dresses - number 1 is a tad more dressier and more suitable for parties, whereas number 2 can be worn to any occasion really. The black button-up jackets add a bit more class to the outfit, whereas the red pumps add more sexiness to it.
Tell me what you think about these outfits! And don't forget - feel free to send me any photos of your style icon or favourite celebrity in a great outfit!

Inspired by whowhatweardaily I've decided to start my very own Victoiree Style Check, creating outfits after various inspirational oufits.
Today, my inspiration is actress Rachel Bilson. Her simply but yet chic combination of simple black cardigan and gray jeans, matched with red bag and shoes, is a great outfit to wear absolutely anywhere - school, hot date, work.
I put together two outfits that share the same simplicity - and hopefully also the same chicness. In both, there are black tops and gray jeans, fairly simple. The bag and shoes are the same color as well. Since it's spring, I chose colors that are bright and colorful.
If you read this entry, I'd love to hear what you think about this new idea! And if you have any great outfit combinations by celebs or models etc, simply send the url to me and I'll do my best to create new outfits according to those :)
