Sophisticate princess :Fan Bing Bing

This weeks sophisticate princess award goes toooooooooo......

FANG BING BING -

This girl is just awsome, I remember seeing her ages ago on some Asian site (but she did not catch my attention then).

I was reading a UK celeb magazine the other day that showed her pics, I was shocked. She is such a beauty in both looks and fashion (she can catch your eye). So I wanted to dedicate this post to this awsome fashion princess.

Known best as a Chinese-pop singer and actress, she is called the “China Monica Bellucci" - to me she does look like a china doll. A very fashionable doll at that, so here are some pics:


She is becoming popular in the US for her fashion sense. About time too, with her classic looks and good taste for fashion - they should snatch her up!




Gosh i'm getting a girl crush here, even though i'm straight.

Fan Bingbing Celebrities at the Dior Fashion Show during the 2011 Paris Fashion Week in Paris, France.

It seems even when she tries to go crazy gagaaa style - she manages to make it look elegant and classy.
Here her vintage style brings back the sophisticate for the modern age. We salute you fashion princess!

Mermaids.....

Is it just me or do the mermaid-style dresses look really elegant.  Whether worn as a ball gown, or a wedding dress, they look stunning.

Here are some dresses:

Not a fan of having too much cleavage hanging out (a lil is ok), but the end part of the dress looks good.


I just love the design of this one, blood-red is really eye catching.


It really shows off a woman's curves (in a good way). I love the way the silk flows from it. It tends to make you concentrate on the bottom of the dress rather than the top, for once.

A Roman wedding

So i'm not married or anything (not in any relationship) but sometimes I want to get hitched just for the dress!

I love wedding dresses, I love seeing the different types out there.

So I came across this pretty little number, that reminded me of the Roman clothing woman wore. It's how I would picture their wedding clothes. Now it's very simple, but something very beautiful and sophisticated about it. That is how the romans used to dress, they liked it very simple but elegant aswell.



The hairstyle is very roman aswell, the typical tied up bun with a bit of hair loose. I just love this dress for it's simple roan style, the red sash like belt (Roman women also used to wear) just adds to it's appeal.

Makes a great wedding outfit for a summer wedding, as it's too hot to wear puffy dresses. This would be perfect for that kind of wedding.

Korea does it best, the sophisticated mother...

I love alot of the sophisticated fashion I see in Korea, they really know how to pull it off. Here is how you can look yummy mummy - but in the most elegant way:



This is actress Jang Shin and her son (who is soo adorable) showing you how a mother does it best. I adore her cream jacket and stockings, her son follows in his mothers foot steps when it comes to posing and fashion. His jacket should be in every child clothing section. Her hair is done up very well here, and the bag completes the classy mother outfit.

So look at this all you mothers out there, having children does not stop you getting your fashion groove on! :)

Leg warmers!

Can I just say how cute I find these! Leg warmers go great with sophisticated fashion, you just have to look out for ones that match your outfit.

Here are some I found on a classicchic blog:



I ADORE THESE - they're very classic chic indeed, and would go great with a classic wool dress. They really match the dark brown shoes, turning it into a vintage look.


Loving the colour of these

here are some more I found :


They really have come back in fashion, not just for dance anymore. Great for those winter days!


After watching Black Swan I have an urge to dance in them.

So here is how to pull off sophisticated chic in leg warmers (I found this pic worked best for the look.) -


So ladies if you find any good deals on leg warmers make sure to stock up.
