DROP it.

DROPSNAP SAVES ME. They give me a hot man to drool over for another few days.. until more fashionably dynamic Japanese men come up on their street fashion site.

To be quite honest, I'D KILL TO WEAR HIS OUTFIT. Just quoted this girl who I talked with at Shine the other night.. It was one of the sweetest compliment I've heard in my life !! But anyways, back on topic, his jacket thing down there is better than any piece of clothing I've seen on ANYONE lately. Including runways. AM I GETTING TOO PRACTICAL FOR THE FASHION INDUSTRY !??! AHHHH !! AHHHHH !!

august dreamin'

Today.. the weather WAS nice. You see, in Vancouver, we experience ALL FOUR SEASONS' weather in ONE DAY !! WOAAAHH. Sounds cool, right !? NOT WHEN YOU LIVE HERE. Okay, enough weather rant. Moving on... These are pictures from a sunny August day.

I dressed up: DIY headband, Guess tee, Ferragamo belt, Rachel Roy harem jumpsuit, vintage Ferragamo heels (that are now sadly RIP)

Then I went Downtown to meet up with my lovely friend, Dayeon, to take some pictures of her boyfriend.. for his online shopping mall store. HEHEHE. Then I moved myself and picked up my other friend, Jenny, to go to Richmond for some HIGH QUALITY ASIAN FOODS YUM !!

At Bubble Queen. In my opinion, the BEST BUBBLE TEA PLACE IN VANCOUVER, HANDS DOWN. Located across from Magnetic Cafe (which used to be named, Gogo Tea), it is a small place that is PACKED if you come during rush hours.
We ordered: Mango mochi ball bbt, lime calpis slush, and blueberry cheesecake.
Mine was the blueberry cheesecake, and let me tell ya, IT TASTED LIKE IT !! Perchance it is because Bubble Queen uses FRESH FRUIT for everything and NO POWDER at all !! With tax and the pearls, these special, one-of-a-kind bubble teas end up between $5.50 to $6. This price for its content size, quality, and taste is TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE !! I mean, compare this to like.. idk... JUGO JUICE OR BOOSTER JUICE !! Which one would YOU rather take 1?

The other Asian food place.. Where I had this weird red bean shaved ice in a cup thing...... LOL. Then I relocated to Cafe Crepe on Granville Street for some little drinks w another group of friends !

And then... we went out to Venue. I did not expect this at all. I looked ridiculous amidst the dressed up doll-like girls in beautiful high heels. The bouncer opened my honking big bag and the first thing that showed through his flashlight.. was my The Great Gatsby book. TALK ABOUT EMBARRASSING !!!!!!!!!!

campaigns [three]

You might've seen these around. They are FW2010 campaigns so they should be ALL OVER the magazines you faithfully read... Well hopefully, anyhow.
Both are ones I love and have taken time to save them on to my computer. Enjoy.

TOM FORD
models: Nicholas Hoult (the young actor from Ford's directorial debut film, A Single Man) and Freja Beha Erichsen.
Photographed by Tom Ford, these two pose with ravens, sporting Tom Ford eye wear. Powerful and cheeky just like Tom Ford himself. What more intensity can one achieve for an eye wear campaign !? ;) ;) ;)

VERSACE
models: Anna Selezneva + 2 other girls.. This is mean to label them the two other girls, but I've been ignorant with the Russian models lately and haven't been able to put names to their faces. OOPS.
Photographed by Mario Testino, the campaign focuses on clothes by accentuating the clone-like-ness of the models and the contrast between black and white.
I love how those heels that looked SO CHEAP on the runway can turn into such gorgeous shoes in the campaign. ALL OF A SUDDEN.. THERE'S A SUDDEN NEED, AN URGE FOR ME TO GO OUT AND SERIOUSLY PURSUE THOSE GOLDEN CHUNKY, UNFLATTERING LENGTHED HEELS JUST TO LOOK SPACEY AND BLINGED UP. This is truly the power of a perfect campaign and not only beautiful models.

recent viewings

Last weekend, on a spontaneous call from my friends, I went out and caught The Town. The super acclaimed movie directed and starring Ben Affleck (and Blake Lively and John Hamm).

It was definitely one of the WORST MOVIES I'VE EVER WATCHED.. That I can remember. I came out utterly disappointed and in loss for words. HOW DID THIS MOVIE EVER GET SUCH GREAT REVIEWS !? Was it me !???! Did I miss something ?????
There were scenes that were unforgettable and will stick with me rest of my life. Some cuts where the colors were vivid and bright. Some scenes and dialogues that shocked me to put me to the edge of my seat. But all in all, the movie failed to impress. It was just so... BLAND.

The movie's plot was basically a sad story after another and the film's perk was its ridiculous amount of heavy Boston accent pounding into my head. Gone Baby Gone was a good flick. Stick to that, and stay clear from this one.



I forgot to post a review on a movie I watched way back when in the summer, The Kids are All Right with Annette Bening, Julianne Moore, Mark Ruffalo, and that Mia girl from Alice in Wonderland.

This movie, unlike the previous one mentioned, was BRILLIANT !! IT WAS STUNNING. It was so much fun and had loads of genuine love incorporated into it that I never wanted it to end... (well that's a lie, because I had to go pee REALLY REALLY REALLY BADLY in the theatres). I loved the vividly yellowy colors, the casting, the rawness, and the complexity in the movie. This flick may be labelled "INDIE" or "NEW-AGE" or... idk, etc etc... BUT IN THE END.. It's movies like this one that changes the film industry and the viewer's viewpoints and lives !! GO WATCH IT KIDS. GO GO GO. Be prepared to shed some extra tears !!!



AND THIS IS THE NEXT ONE I WANT TO WATCH !! IT COMES OUT THIS WEEKEND TO FIFTH AVENUE CINEMAS !! NEVER LET ME GO STARRING THE ONE AND ONLY KEIRA KNIGHTLEY !!

It's a nice change though. Then he adds in his classic pieces, duh. This collection was definitely more sexy and included more see-through blouses that makes me DROOOOOOOL.

viet subs, anyone !?

My family likes our Vietnamese subs. They are cheap and filling and gloriously tasty.
Here, we are at Ba Le on Kingsway.

Whatever you feel like. The best in Vancouver ?? Not here, but Tung Hing Bakery also on Kingsway. There, the subs have more flavour and veggies, hence if you have a caucasiany foody tongue.. I recommend Ba Le and not Tung Hing. Tung Hing for true Vietnamese sub lovers. YUM OM NOM NOM NOM.

To be quite honest, I'm sort of IN LOVE / OBSESSED with BATHTUBS.
************I take showers and not baths. I really hate baths.
I cannot breathe in baths. YET.
Bathtubs are special. They're a unique specimen that gives instant happiness to a human.
***B A T H T U B S F O R T H E W I N ! ! ! ! ! !!! ! ! ! !!***
These are the best bathtub cuts ON THE WORLD WIDE WEB, my friends.
