Say Hi To My Lasalle-ian Chimps

Oh my Lord! I was so surprised to see this picture over at Matt's blog. It makes me so happy all of the sudden.

You guys are my Lasalle-ians darlings, haha, and of course others that are not in this picture too =)

Clockwise from extreme left: Glenn, Me, Genie, Fra, Matt and Ang

Time passes so fast and there are so many memories to hold on to. Thanks for being a part in my journey, guys =)

What's up, Beech?

Finally! Some coverage of one of the top models at the moment, Josh Beech. This 23 years old lad is keeping himself busy with his band apart from modeling, not to mention up to seven campaigns coming up this season.

What can i say? We just love guys who are hardworking and meek at the same time.










FYI, thats a real mustache tattoo.

Gosh, i just love how things are going on when they're off duty, which reminds me to post some of Aj Abualrub's pictures next.

Groove On

Check out the July cover of V magazine featuring Cameron Diaz.


Ph: Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott

Cameron is a gorgeous, gorgeous actress who has endless spunk in her so there's no need to turn her into a Gwen Stefani look-alike, isn't it? I'm sure, just like me, you guys thought it was Gwen Stefani at the first glance.

Oh well, thats really just a small grouse from me because all is forgiven with that thigh high fisherman boots by Prada. Its 'Oh so obsess-able'.

And by the way, i take it back when i said that i won't be posting anything up since the connection over at Indonesia works just fine.

So many boys, so many girls.

Its In The Hair.

While i usually don't give a hoot about what Mulberry is doing season after season, their recent campaign ads for F/W 09 starring Karlie Kloss and Irina Kulikova by Steven Meisel was so 'hair-rousingly' good that it'll be a shame to not share it to you guys.

Fashion has been hitting rock-bottom recently and more and more labels were churning out prove and tested ads for their campaign (just look at Michael Kors). But, where's the innovation? Or most importantly, where's the fun?



Ph: Steven Meisel

I understand why some designers have decided to speak to their consumers amidst the current economy crisis but that doesn't mean by coming up with mediocre work. To me, that just mean their consumers are as boring and mediocre as their works, no?

At least, thank God for photographers with real vision like Steven Meisel.


Quote For Thought:

"I think the problem is that fashion has become too fashionable. For years, fashion wasn't fashionable. Today, fashion is so fashionable that it's almost embarrassing to say you're part of fashion... because everybody thinks fashion is attainable."

You Should Be Holding Me.

Road To December

I live in a town
somewhere in the east.
Only roam when there
is mist.
Found a coin
down the empty street.
Tossed it out for a wish.
That i'll hum myself to sleep
'til it no longer bleeds.

Somewhere in the south,
i'm gasping for your mouth.
Enticing me with your divine tattoo.
Just love it when you coo.
Hope you kept it in your mind
that i'm one of a kind.

The way our love travels.
Swallowed by the calm sea.
So much more to unravel.
I pray for our eyes to see.
As dangerous as it can be.
Hope should never leave.

I'm going back to Indo today for three weeks, so i don't think i'll be uploading any posts 'til then. Take care everyone =)

P.S Ang, Matt sorry for not being able to join you guys, i'll make it up to you one day yea? And i think you're pushing your mum's limit with that tattoo, Fra, haha.

For the boys.

Mens Fashion Week is already out in full force in Paris. While i still wonder when i can get the chance to watch those shows, i'm just really glad for having internet to catch up with what's going on.

I really love Eric Sposito's coverage of whats going on in the backstage. So candid, so direct. I'll post them up soon.. I hope.

Those male models should be just describe as 'creatures' because what is a Mens Fashion Week without all those gorgeous towering love-able giants?

And of course, the campaigns for F/W 09 are starting to pour in like a heavy downpour.

As always, Simon Nessman can do no wrong even with just an underwear on for John Galliano Underwear F/W 09.

and shameless man.
But hell,
i love your voice."

Shoulder Pow!

While i don't find Dolce & Gabbana F/W 09 collection that impressive, its like Count Dracula's wives were rope into the designing team, i do find the campaign ads were drama aplenty. (Then again, its Dolce & Gabbana right?)

Mariacarla Boscono, Edita Vilkeviciute and Heidi Mount demonstrate that in order to work those frightening 'troll-like-shoulders', all you need is just a strong dose of confidence.





Heidi Mount = Pink Gorilla?

This is my favourite of all with Maria in it no less. She does resembles Frida Kahlo, doesn't it? All she needs is just a little hint of mustache.

Ph: Steven Klein

There are a handful of impressive campaign ads too, i'll upload them when i'm free.
