R.I.P. Anna Piaggi

"It's the theory of queenship that I dream of. I love the atmosphere, the clothes... I never think of money, just style and power. My nature has always been to be superficial." 

- Anna Piaggi (22 March 1931 – 7 August 2012)

Quote of the Day

"I must thank my mother for the fact that I've never smoked. If you smoke, your hands are always on show, and yours aren't particularly nice,' she said. I've never had a cigarette. I wanted to please her because she hated anything second-rate."

- Karl Lagerfeld

Letter From The Editor

Welcome Fashionist!

My name is Ajie. As a child i was always fashion curious, when i was still 7 years old my mother would attend charities and i would be sitting by her side puzzled on how fast she was able to dress herself up but takes too long to stare in the mirror with that quaint smile. It did not take me too long to understand that my mom felt pretty inside. Having worn that vintage Chanel dress she loved so much, i can tell that fashion has always been her source of interest and joy. Growing up, i understood fashion, i was still curious but i was not in bloom yet. Later on i was reading books about fashion's history and form what seemed to be a reading for leasure lead me to curiousity and curiousity lead me to be the person who i am now. A fashionist, like you.

Then i started this blog, i want to share what i have known, i want to impart the knowledge i have enjoyed so much with the hopes that you would learn from what i have also.

What to expect? Lots of things! This blog reeks of fashion madness. I will be talking about almost anything that has to do with fashion and anything dealt in a fashionista kind of way. In the eyes of fashionists like us, the world is a different place.

Whatever this site holds, i hope you would enjoy reading my posts as much as i have enjoyed making them. If you feel like i have written something wrong, if you'd like to suggest things to be posted, or if you have anything you'd like to say or do, by all means feel free to email at fafafashionist@gmail.com. Don't worry, i don't bite.

So i leave you with what Yves Saint Laurent want's EVERY fashionist in the world to understand, this message goes to all fashionistas and trend-setters alike:

"fashion fades, style is eternal"
