Review: Confessions of a Shopaholic

Published on March 25, 2009 in Celebrity, Film and Review. 2 Comments Tags: , , , , , , .

Last night, I caught the film “Confessions of a Shopaholic” with the beloved, Jan for some girly fun. Isla Fisher is a natural born comedienne – seriously! This girl is a walking slapstick comedy. As for the costumes, I’m not really a fan of Patricia Field’s work for this film in terms of the mixing and matching. I do fancy a few items from the film such as:

The Green Scarf

By Dolce & Gabbana. This is the “key” piece in the film which earned her the name “Girl in the Green Scarf”. I’ve to say I do love the way the scarf wraps around her neck and flows… nice. For those who’re interested, Patricia Field is remaking this and selling green scarf replicas on her website!

The Purple Lanvin Dress

This is sooo gorgeous! Apparently, Patricia Field had this made in purple (I believe the original colour was Black). She paired this Lanvin dress with a thick black waisted belt, lilac tights and a cute jacket. Ruffles! Take the cue, everybody.

Here’s another ‘very good’ reason to watch this film:

Luke Brandon (starred by Hugh Dancy)

Do I need to say more? Just three words: Hot British Editor. Can you hear my heart going thump thump thump? I want him. HAHAHA. The boyfriend doesn’t hear this. Don’t expect it to be the new SATC though. The film opens tomorrow in all cinemas in Singapore. Catch it!

Patricia Field Talks “Confessions of a Shopaholic”

One more week to the opening of “Confessions of a Shopaholic” in Singapore! I can’t wait to catch the film when it hits our cinemas. I found these videos of Patricia Field commenting on the costumes in the film. From the fame of ‘Sex and the City’, Patricia Field is no doubt the perfect choice to dress up Becky Bloomwood (played by Isla Fisher). Let’s see what she has in store:

Patricia Field talked about recreating a Lanvin dress for Becky Bloomwood because it didn’t come in purple! Only Pat can pull off a stunt like that!

Patricia Field talked about the first outfit that you see in the film.

Style Tip: Patricia Field talked about mixing and matching to create a new ‘mood’.

Confessions of a Shopaholic: The Movie

Published on April 15, 2008 in Celebrity and Film. 0 Comments Tags: , , , .

I have a confession: I haven’t read any of Sophie Kinsella’s Shopaholic series. I’ve seen the book displayed on shelves whenever I walk into Kinokuniya or Borders – strangely enough, I’ve never got the urge to pick it up or even borrow from the library. I remember Moe Moe saying Kinsella’s writing is too self-indulgent for her liking, so I guess I never got around to it. Anyway, everyone is talking about the new Sex and the City movie but what do we have to look forward to after May? It’s time to pick up that book and start reading, because I’ve till 2009 before the movie version of Confessions of a Shopaholic releases.

Here’s the first look of Isla Fisher playing Rebecca Bloomwood:

This is quite cute. I actually adore the colour palette of this outfit. Who can forget Isla’s memorable role in the Wedding Crashers? This is the woman who and made a baby with Borat, don’t you forget that.

I love the beret. I’m not sure about the styling, then again I haven’t read the book.

Err… what the heck is that? The circus is bursting in New York City!
