Genuine Parisian Look

So far the show from Paris is pretty dull, not like from Milan. Here is another show from Yves Saint Laurent that I think it's quite interesting. One thing; I'm not sure about those cropped pants ?

Boys at Fashion Week

Forget the actual shows, here are some photos of the attendees who are as interesting as the fashion shows. Damn, that boy with LV mirror bag stole my look.

House Cleaning Never Look This Hot

Do you know how to clean your house properly ? Let me show you how...

Start With The Best

Paris Menswear week started with my favorite brand Louis Vuitton by designer Paul Helbers who surfed this retro-futuristic wave with a collection that subtly combined black leather cape and fluoro orange trainers on the same catwalk. It reminds you of the scenes from Justice League. And the combination of colors in one outfit is also amazing.

This's Just The Beginning

David Beckham starts conquering America one corporate at a time. First, he landed a role of "Prince Philip" for new campaign of Disney Park's celebration. The Campaign was shot by a famous photographer - Annie Leibovitz, which also features Scarlett Johansson as Cinderella, Beyoncé as Alice in the Wonderland.

Secret Love

" Once I had a secret love
That lived within the heart of me
All too soon my secret love
Became impatient to be free

So I told a friendly star
The way that dreamers often do
Just how wonderful you are
And why I am so in love with you

Now I shout it from the highest hills
Even told the golden daffodils

At last my heart's an open door
And my secret love's no secret anymore"

- Doris Day -

St. Jean Paul Gaultier

Looks like Jean Paul Gaultier toned down a lot since he started working with Hermes. His Couture collection has no surprise, not pushing the envelope like he did in the past; except the halo on models' head. He might have passed the torch to Mr. Galliano and Mr. McQeen. Here are some of his highlight.

Lindsay for Miu Miu

New ads campaign of MiuMiu featuring Lindsay Lohan, looks like was shot in rehab...


Kelis' new video - "Lil Star"

Christian Lacroix

By far Christian Lacroix Couture collection is my favorite. He knows how to make a woman looks like a lady with soft colorful fabric and floral prints.

Chanel Couture 2007

Who said tight can't be classy ? Karl Lagerfeld presented Chanel Couture Spring 2007 collection with a lot of tight. Good silhouette and amazing fabrics are still the keys for Mr. Lagerfeld. The collection looks a bit like Ms. Coco Chanel is getting ready for Studio 54.

























But wait a minutes, what are these ?? Black-tie dresses ??

Seems like Louis Ghost chair by Phillipe Starck is a popular choice for photoshoots. I own one myself but how come mine doesn't look this hot.

Quote of the Day

" How do you know when enough is enough ? "

- Carrie Bradshaw -

Paul Smith L.A.

While I was in L.A., I stopped by Paul Smith store on Melrose Ave. The building is minimalistic with bright pink color (looks like a giant piece of candy). When I went inside, I was a little disappointed. From the outside, the building looks very modern; but inside looks like a thrift store. First of all, I'm not fond of Paul Smith products; beside that they have everything - I mean everything - from clothes, books, dishes, posters, skateboards, mirrors, bookends, etc. Looks like they went to some yard sales and put all those stuffs together with higher price.

World Premiere: Robbie Williams - "She's Madonna"

What can I say about this video ? I like the song, the video is weird, Robbie looks horrible in drag, Alexis Arquette looks great, nothing related to the song itself.
