Relentlessly Craving

I didn't even know there is a luggage campaign for a label! Givenchy Fall luggage campaign sure stirs up the wanderlust in me.

When you're able to travel the globe looking like that, you know you've made it.

"Ulv, Ulv, Ulv"

Ph: Hedi Slimane

Ladies and gentlemen, i present you Sylvester Ulv who is still young enough (He's only 15 years old by the way) to make everyone feels like a pedophile.

No doubt the coming season will see him explode into a real star on the runways and campaigns.

"Punk rock t-shirt,

black cap and tattoo.

The first thing i notice about you."

Smile! 'cause no one ever said it was easy.

I'll be back as soon as all of this madness is over.

I Want To Hear You Coo..

Lately, i've been listening to this song on repeat until i fell asleep. Secretly wishing i would have a psychedelic dream where i would melt onto the earth, swimming from wall to wall, stalking the person that i love so obsessively..

Bottom line, i just get the kind of energy, a jubilation, inspiration where i feel like i could write a thousand poems and never get tired of it.

Where's the crumbs?

This is the kind of story that i'd love to be dreaming on a cold rainy night, rolling up into a ball under my blanket.

And with Lady Gaga as the witch? How uncanny right?

Sex O'clock

Ever wonder why certain men from certain countries fare so much better than you when it comes to love or under the sheet?

A survey carried out by global research sire OnePoll.com which sampled women from 20 countries showed the countries that have the best and worst lovers in the world. And you might just have some clues on what ticked the opposite sex off.

World's worst lovers:

1. Germany (Too Smelly)

2. England (Too Lazy)

3. Sweden (Too Quick)

4. Holland (Too Dominating)

5. America (Too Rough)

6 Greece (Too Lovey-Dovey)

7 Wales (Too Selfish)

8 Scotland (Too Loud)

9. Turkey (Too Sweaty)

10. Russia (Too Hairy)

Seriously, i laughed my ass off over the 'too smelly'. Poor Germans, maybe too much sauerkraut didn't do you guys any good. A normal person can't stand being around someone with body odour let alone sleep with him. And others which had me rolling are the 'too quick', 'too sweaty' and 'too hairy'.

Those ladies really don't beat around their own bush, do they? Its so straightforward that its so hilarious.

World's Best Lovers:

1. Spain

2. Brazil

3. Italy

4. France

5. Ireland

6. South Africa

7. Australia

8. New Zealand

9. Denmark

10. Canada

Though they didn't give the reasons why men from these countries make the best lovers, i'm sure you guys could make out why. They don't coin it as 'French Kiss' for nothing and if there's anything to learn from the Italian men, it'll definitely that, some wines won't hurt but would just heighten the mood.

And now i know where to send my single, miserable girlfriends off to when they didn't get any luck with the Singaporean men.

"I keep my dick hangin' out of my pants.

So i can point out what i like.

The Knife, Hangin' Out.

I'm Not Done.

Friends truly learn how to be motherf***ers when they finally found themselves a partner.

You'll start to notice all the changes and all they can do is denying everything.

They'll give reasons like "Why do i always have to be the first to call?" or "I'm still the same, you're just kicking up a fuss." Oh yeah? I'm so tempted to kick your asses now.

Why would i want to bring all this up to create a stir? Fine, when everything starts to go downhill, i'd just want to ask you that, why should i be the first one you'll call?

Ph: Steven Meisel

Unhappy? I dare you to take me on.

"You're looking for me.

But i'm not what you seek.

I've got a twisted personality."

The Knife, A Lung.

Bad Desire

I think too much. And that is something that i can't deny.

I'm sure i'm going through a bout of depression these days and always tend to wallow in self-pity. Yet, when i heard stories of someone else who is struggling through a disease or in a dire situation, i felt as if what i have was just a small piece of cake.

Like a slap in my face. Trying to wake myself up. Telling myself to put my empathy on others.

Why? Why do i need to do that when i don't want to?

I'm tired. I take time. Whenever i'm in my room, i'm feeling various of emotions. I'm angry, i'm bitter, i'm sad, i'm optimistic, i'm disgusted. All these just molded into a ball of massive energy and exploded into a black hole, sucking away everything that i have in me.

Leaving me emotionless, hollow without a single purpose.

Now, can they, who read this, be empathetic with me instead?

Ph: Steven Klein

"I am a hunger ready to eat.

And i can't tell you why.

I had this urge

to die."

How Many Degrees?

I watched 'Drag Me To Hell' last night and to be completely honest with you, i was pretty hesitant at first. 

I'm not afraid of horror movie but this one involved hell!


I'm like, i know i'll be scarred psychologically if i'm going to watch it. In the end, i watched it anyway.


I'm fine with all those cheap scares that it gave but its the prospect of the character going to hell that scares me the most. Seriously, its hell, hello?


I'm pretty sure, for those who have watched it, will began to question themselves on who deserved to go to hell rather than the lovely character (I'm not going to spoil it for those who haven't watch it yet) in the movie.


The truth is, in my opinion, no one ever deserves to go to hell. I cringe, whenever i heard someone muttered, 'Go to hell'. 


You know when you finally really see that person in hell, you'd have think twice on what you've said.

You Don't Need To Share Your Idiotic Philosophies.

I'm sure all of you came across a 'philosophical' quote put on by your friends on the MSN or Twitter.

Its pretty bullshit if you ask me.

Not only its bullshit, its an hypocrisy in my opinion.

I don't want to know on how or when you've realised that human contradicts, embrace chaos or whatever and then put on a quote to appear as if you're a deep thinker. Save it for your job interview.

The irony is this, those people that put on a quote like that contradict what they wrote all the time. Seriously, not only its stupid, it also did nothing to improve my impression on them.

Walk the talk! The world is not going to change just because a philosophy thought hit on you out of nowhere and make you appear sophisticated.

By the way, in my opinion, Twitter kills creativity because the users just describe what they're doing in the interval of 5 minutes in a short, short sentence. And to my horror, they can't even put on a proper sentence on their twitter page. What a shame because i can't even make out on whether you're having lunch or you're going to have lunch. 

I don't need to know whether you're going to Starbucks or doing your handstand now. Unless you're Kim Jong Il or H1N1 where every move could change the world. 

Urgh, i don't know why i'm so angsty tonight. I could just bite someone else head off and smear the blood on my bedroom wall.

"What's in it for me?

 Fine.

 Then i'll agree."

Either You're In Or Out.

In case you don't know, this year Costume Institute Gala -an extremely popular, if exclusive event in the fashion world- has got everyone going quite literally, gaga. (Which reminded me to thank God that Lady Gaga didn't attend the show because we don't need to see her gracing the red carpet event with her giant tea cup or nude bodysuit.)

So i'm just itching to list out, in my opinion, the five best dressed and the five worst dressed of the night before it became stale, because in fashion world everything passed by so quickly like the speed of the hurricane Katrina. 

Five Best Dressed:

Agyness Deyn

You know, i hate to admit that Agyness Deyn actually looked stunning that night because i find her a little too over-rated. However, as you can see, she nailed it; the hair, the make-up and the accessories that accompanied the Burberry dress were perfect on her. 

Heidi Klum

In such event like this, anyone attending would have ditched the functional and dive straight into the most attention grabbing (and sometimes uncomfortable) pieces. Heidi, on the other hand, wore a dress from J. Mendel and at the same time perfectly covered the baby bump on her tummy. Now that's what i call planning ahead.

Sasha Pivovarova

My friends knew that i love Sasha, so this opinion might be a little biased. But hey, if she could make a dramatic statement with that body-con Giambattista Valli mini complete with a beautiful cascading peacock cape, she's definitely one of the best dressed of the night.

Lou Doillon

In my opinion, anyone who wore Nina Ricci to the event should be on the best dressed list. And Lou Doillon is one of them, 'nuff said.

Shalom Harlow

I know, those of you who are not 'fashion educated' out there (if i may be a little harsh) will go "WTF Dude?" complete with that typical low, couch-sitting American guy voice. Or you guys might even joke about her wearing a sewn on rubbish bag dress. But, can't you see? She totally stop the traffic with the dress (a billowing black taffeta domino by Bob Mackie over a black and beaded Nina Ricci catsuit) and not overwhelmed by it. That's what got me sit up and excited. And that's also why such dress like that are not meant for mere mortals like us, not even for  madonna who can't save herself with a much more wearable outfit. (Read Below)

Five Worst Dressed:

Rihanna

Looks like this year is all about getting inspiration from Michael Jackson for Rihanna. Don't believe me? She was previously seen wearing a Balmain military jacket looking like a female version of MJ and now she attended the gala wearing Dolce & Gabbana  looking as if she has just stepped out from the set of Thriller. What's next? A nose job or a neverland mansion at your hometown, Barbados island?

Coco Rocha

Actually Coco looked alright, just disappointing. I like Coco a lot and felt that she could do so much better than that Isaac Mizrahi's toga dress.

Madonna

When i first saw this picture, i thought it was Lindsay Lohan and forgave her for looking like this. Then, to my horror, it's Madonna! That outfit clearly should be worn by trashy celebrities like Paris Hilton or Britney Spears instead. Poor Madonna, she just doesn't want to admit that she's already 50 years old. And i would say poor Madonna again, because by dating hunky and sizzling brazilian model, Jesus Luz does not mean that you're still in the game; standing beside him just further emphasise that you're a 50 years old dating a guy in his 20s.

Kirsten Dunst

Dear Ms. Dunst, when would start to start to dress like your age?

Andre Leon Talley

ALT is the only guy in the list. He should be happy i guess, to make it in the list. Now, actually it was bad in a good way, because dressing in a such way is his specialty and it just adds on to his personality. However, it made me laughs since he kind of looked like a pastor who has a fetish for women shoes.

See what the rest of the attendees are wearing on the Gala.
