Celebrity Sighting: Michelle Yeoh in Alberta Ferretti


Actress Michelle Yeoh wore an Alberta Ferretti resort 2011 dress in Venice last week looking like a Grecian goddess. It’s no surprise that I’m a fan of this look as I love anything that is draped (great for hiding unflattering bulges.) The gold clutch is a nice touch. I only wish that she had worn either the bracelets or the watch. Together, the combination feels a bit cluttered. What do you think? Are you a fan?

Celebrity Sighting: Charlene Choi in in Blumarine

Back when Twins first became popular, I never understood why people thought Ah Gil was the cuter one as ShoeGeek and I always rooted for Ah Sa. In fact, I always thought that Ah Gil was too generic looking and if she weren't together with Ah Sa, I wouldn't have any idea who she was.. Of course, this is all pre Edison so things have changed quite a bit. So last Saturday, Ah Sa went to the Music World Music Awards organised by Metro Radio in a Blumarine Fall/Winter 2010 dress. My immediate reaction is how on earth will anyone regularly sized, such as us Geeks, fit into a dress like this if Ah Sa who is TINY in real life looks like she's oozing out of it? And trust me, she's tiny. We get our hair cut at the same salon and I would bump into her all the time. Then I realise, wait, she's NOT oozing out of it, it's only coz she looks chubs next to Chanel Iman... and so begins a downward spiral of self-doubt where I realise I am never to wear this dress at all under any circumstances which is a bit of a pity as I think it looks quite cute when styled with that jacket.

Celebrity Sighting: Kelly Chan in Burberry Prorsum


Both ShoeGeek and I are devout followers of fashion blogs and one of the ones that we love reading is Red Carpet Fashion Awards where we can check out what international stars are wearing on a regular basis to the red carpet. And I always get a source of pride when I see Asian celebrities featured but it’s far and few between. Then I thought to myself, well why don’t we start a column where you can see what stars on this side of the globe are wearing? As we mentioned before, we don't claim to be fashion gurus but we do know what we like and don't like.

First up is Kelly Chan, singer and mother of ‘Har Gau Zhai” (Shrimp Dumpling as she affectionately calls her son) at Raymond Lam’s recent concert wearing Burberry Prorsum Autumn Winter 2010. Quick note to the PR folks, we like to see the whole ensemble and that means shoes! (The other picture of Kelly was rather unflattering and only showed the soles of the shoes. Yes we realise that she is onstage and that the photographer can only shoot up but still, if you can take the above pic, I imagine it wouldn't be that hard to just pan down a tad lower so we can see what shoes she wore with the dress.) That peeve aside, I am a fan of this ensemble although that might be my perchance for anything that ruched and draped to hide unflattering bulges. Kelly definitely doesn't have this problem. The lace overlay with peekaboo thighs is a nice touch seeing as exact knee length dresses are hard to carry off unless you are Mrs Incredible and have the ability to stretch your calves to unnatural lengths.
