Bra For Boys
November 27, 2008
This is a weird article. I was browsing My Yahoo! page and saw this odd news from Reuters. Apparently in Japan, a new trend in online shopping is making its scene. After a major Japanese web shopping mall, Rakuten launched its bra for boys, it has sold more than 300 item. The said men undergarment costs 2,800 yen ($30) each.

Viktor and Rolf only used one model… How murderous is that! (Shalom Harlow)
As spring comes close in retail stores, they promise a very bright and fun future.
I mean that literally. In the children clothing store I’m in, girls clothing are having a pastel pallet of bright green, yellow, and (ugh) pink with matching pants.
Same pastel colours are coming in for boys, but darker and less bright.
Mood is very optimistic and fun.
It’s very easy to still use your fall items this summer. Just trim down the volume and pair them with soft fabrics and bright splashes of colour here and there.
On another side of news, I may be going back to school again not as a BS Psychology student, but as a Fashion student. I just enrolled myself (with the help of a overzealous counselor or whatever she’s called.) I may be expecting a call from people that will help me along the way of my admission. Don;t get me wrong, I love being a Psychology student and I will pursue that, but I don’t want to tell my plans that publicly.
In another unrelated story. Prada’s SS09 collection is the blast, but people are not flocking to youtube to see that, let this video explain. (more More for spring 2009.)

Top 10 Hit Songs - October
October 31, 2008
ue to the overwhelming views of my current Top 10 Hit songs Article last month, which is the most viewed article I’ve ever written, which is also responsible for the dramatic increase of this blog’s traffic; I now present to you the October Issue of the Top 10 Hit Songs!
*ranks were based from Billboard Hot 100 Singles, songs currently dominating the airwaves and of course, my personal favorites*
1. Disturbia - Rihanna
The song title itself is enough to catch one music lover’s attention. And the music video is just exactly what I pictures it is as I listened to the lyrics of Rihanna’s latest hit song. After listening to it, you just can’t help but utter the song’s introductions, “bum bum be dum bum bum be dum bum”

Leaning Towards Crocks (the company, at least) is Easy, but this is an Abomination.
October 15, 2008
But I will be dead if I gave one sister one of these.
The Life on Planet Bill captures the hidden wisdom in these contraptions. Though Wikipedia has a good point for these child tether/walking reins as for safety and such, I believe that these are a little extreme.
Even though that for the past years that the these things have been humanized, there still be a feeling of awkwardness whenever a parent is lagging, or controlling, a child by the lease. It’s justs so uncalled for.
Now you know what a dog looking to a tethered dog looks like…. If they have the emotional; capacities of a human that is.
Even though, it is not enough of an excuse to leash another human, a toddler no less. That only works in BDSM.

Bag Talks
September 25, 2008
This is a cartoon about how I hate seeing men carry the bags of their girlfriends. Though some may think that this is chivalry. I tend to think otherwise.(just to let you know that I made that.)
I really dont like the image of a man carrying a woman’s bag. For one reason, it’s so unappealing unless both of them have pre-coordinated matching outfits.
And what can be proven by that VERY shallow action? ‘I’m your +++c+’?
It’s not really romantic when you think about it. Opening the door and giving up your seat is, but carrying your bag will just give you the illusion of a snatcher. (More From Bag Talks)
Chanel Fall 2008
September 12, 2008
Chanel’s pret-a-porter (ready-to-wear) collection for this fall (’08) and winter wants to target a new crowd and a couple of men as well.
While I applaud most of Karl Lagerfeld’s ideas and creations, I can’t seem to get my thoughts out of some of the designs.
There were the classic Chanel tweed coats with tattered slits on the elbow part and some on the skirts too.
Somewhat I remembered my post for jeans that sold for like $40 with tattered slits on the knees. Its like that, but the dress sells for about a thousand dollars. (More From Chanel Fall 2008)
Philippine Juicy Fruits
August 17, 2008
Fresh from his stint in Harvard, United States, where he was granted scholarship in Publc Finance Administration, Usec. Robert T. Rivera went straight to the set of his show: Pilipinas Ngayon Na! Barely days after he arrived in the country, Usec. Rivera hosted the launching of the Philippine Juicy Fruits of Bella Dimayuga. Bella Dimayuga, the very nationalistic President of Bellestar Promotions who conceptualized the idea that her talents be named after Philippine Fruits to promote our country abroad, with his husband Ed, took charge of the affair. The event was splendid! The crowds were so energetic! The voice of “Marvic” a.k.a. “Makopa”, as she dances with the Bellstar Dancers, was so powerful! Usec. Rivera at the set, was amazed. We taped the event from our own cameras we brought in with us and uploaded Marvic’s performance. It was really splendid! Amazing! Amusing! Watch it for yourself to witness:

SONA form and content
July 28, 2008
The Malacanang occupant has been bitten by the pink bug of Bayani Fernando, Metro Manila’s czar who has painted the metropolis with pink colors for his beautification drive.
Short on good things to say on her State-of-the-Nation Address (SONA) today, GMA would highlight the event instead by what she would be wearing for the joint opening of Congress.
The SONA has long been a fashion show for the rich, the famous and the mighty. But this time it would be more than just a cat walk on the corridors of power. The pink gown of the Palace resident would appear to be the main feature of the SONA. Philippine media is abuzz with it noticeably turning broadsheets into fashion mags.
I’m the New Proud Image Model of Mang Eddie’s Vulcanizing Shop Courtesy of Team Manila Shirts
July 27, 2008
If you are a Filipino and you haven’t heard of Team Manila shirts, you are missing out on a lot. I have been proudly rocking a Team Manila shirt for three years now since my first purchase at their store in Rockwell Makati. I own 12 shirts now and the number of my collection just keeps growing and it’s fast becoming an addiction. What makes Team Manila shirts uniquely Pinoy is their stylish cool designs, from our national icon – Jose Rizal rocking a Ray Ban sunglasses to silhouettes of our own folk dancers aptly titled United Tinikling Collective.
Who/What is Team Manila?
Team Manila is a graphic design studio based in the Philippines with an extensive portfolio of brilliant works in the field of broadcast and print design. While Team Manila is more popularly known for their Graphic Designed Lifestyle t-shirts, the range of their services isn’t only limited to apparel. In fact, they even worked with big names like Nike…. continue reading this post at Pinoy Raket Online
Dressing up for work
July 26, 2008
Although I work at Makati CBD, the type of work I do does not require me to face clients often. If I have to be honest, I mostly spend my days (and nights) typing away at my laptop to connect to different people in different places around the world. I can say that about 75% of my colleagues do not even wear makeup (huwaaat?! - yea my mom has the same reaction). This means, I can be as lousy and as unkempt as I could be (not that I want to) and my laptop will not crash on me.
Menswear Spring 2009
July 23, 2008
Before we begin. This is a post relating to Fall/Winter of 08/09
I know it might be a little early, but there are already Youtube videos with the Spring/Summer 2009 collection.
Colour trends this spring are more of the spring colours in a darker hue and much more romantic than lasts spring, but there’s a little splash of light colours and an obvious appearance of white.
According here, materials are more high end and a little soft featuring cows, lambs, and calf. Yet it also says that the thematic message is more carefree, in love, monastic, yet turbulent and worrying. There is also a big chunk of Blue and Green.
DG: Dolce and Gabbana, Dolce and Gabbana, and Versace are great selections and inspopirations for your Spring/Summer wardrobe.

Here, you will be directed to a Youtube video of the Karl Lagerfeld fashion show featuring his own Spring/Summer 2008 lineup…. It’s awsome and ingenous.
here is a review for that show from style.com
Anywhoo. I got a job and I will start of friday… I love it!
It’s a kidswear store situated in a semio-tourist spot. And last week, I got a letter from this first clothing store I applied in and they said no.
It’s a little bit ok, the reputation of the founder and the comapny is a little bit wobbly if you ask me…
The kidswear thing however is also a little temporary, I’m a temporary part time worker and I may replace a mother who took a maternity leave. Keep my fingers crossed!
OBAMA MORPHS!
On a more depressing side. Our favorite multiracial democratic president is morphing into the other guy with large ears who sits in the oval office.
