Sneakers Fetish

Lucas Ossendrijver and Alber Elbaz showed Lanvin’s Spring/Summer 2011 collection.


When asked about the main idea behind the line Ossendrijver said “it was a hybrid behind active wear – but not in an 80s kind of way – and more formal tailoring.”

With a focus on fabric, color and cut (and details, details, details) Lanvin offers an interesting new sneaker that falls in line with that hybrid active wear theme. In stores for SS11

Love Game


I rem browsing some random mags at starbucks e other day and thought some articles were pretty riveting in a amusing way.

and i was thinking why not share it with my blog readers!

I dunno if i should credit ' seventeen' or 'cleo' cus i only snap the bits...not the mag.screw it.its either one.

Cut to the chase..heres a entry for the gals to understand us boys and yea its my edited version.3 pages is too long.


GUIDE TO UNDERSTANDING US-MEN (THRU SMS!)

-ARE U GETTING THE MESSAGE?
U got his text-but did u get his subtext?find out what he is really saying.


1- HE TEXT- haha
HE MEANS- he doesnt have anything else to say,and he wants to end the conversation.dont bother responding until u hear from him again.


2- HE TEXT- U still at the party?
HE MEANS-if he's tryin to find u at the end of e nite.He wants to hook up.if u dont want a random make out,wait until the morning to write back.


3-HE TEXT-up to anything fun tonight?
HE MEANS-he might want to hang out,but he's not committing until he finds out if any of e other ppl he sent this mass text to respond with better plans.


4-HE TEXT-text me later if u wanna meet up.
HE MEANS-instead of making a plan to see you,he's making you do the work.Ignore him for now-he'll text again if he really wants to hang out



DO NOT SEND!
-THESE TEXT COULD KILL YOUR GAME.


"HOW WAS YOUR WEEKEND?"
Questions too broad to answer in 160 characters take too much effort to address.stick to quick Qs ("did u make it to the game?")so he can send a fast reply.


"WE NEED TO TALK"
U dont want ur text to feel like the equivalentof getting called to the principle's office.He'll know u're ticked & feel a wave of dread abt replying to u.


"DID U GET MY TEXT?"
Unless ur text was intercepted by the CID(trust me-it wasnt),he got ur message.if u want to nudge him to respond,keep it jokey,so u dont seem annoying.("u know my grandma texts faster than u!")


"I HEARD U HOOKED UP WITH (INSERT NAME) LAST NIGHT?"
Accusations-or anything that will lead to a fight-should never play out over text.Waiting(and waiting...)for him to respond jus allows more time for ur anger to build.


As a male,i admit there's some truth to the above.some.
.
I mean it sometimes when i say "haha"(i might really be smiling/laffin on the other side).might.

and i wonder why we always complain that its hard to decipher what u gals are trying to tell us.

But a word of advise..too much mind games in a r/s would only screw things up.(all relationships)

Sometimes dont read too much into it,and dont expect too much.

Cut ur partner some slack.

Oh but more sweet talk and actions of affection dont hurt :)

Review-Lets fake it

Everyone knows i am a avid fan of the SUN!(and i dont mean the ex-pastor)


yeah i adore the sun and i hate to see myself pale fair.


I've heard numerous times abt the dangers of it and the damage it causes to our baby skin.ok not baby skin anymore,but it still damages it.


i dont really give a damn cus aging is only part of life.(unless u're a witch)


BUT


Here comes the cool part abt today's entry!


For those who shun from the sun,apply spf lotion regliously but yet love to have the golden sunkiss look.


heres what u can do!!!


Sprayed tan is not exactly a fresh thing in sg,but Pink Parlour offers personalize(someone spraying for u instead of a machine) Spray tan & is the first & only boutique to offer organic spray tan- Nunkeri Tan from Caron.

-Streak-free formula has built-in sheetin action to eliminate spotting & streaking.

now how cool is that.

-Contains Erythrulose- an additional bronzer for extending your colour days longer.

- Aloe Vera based product.

- It works with natural skin tone to produce a sun-kissed glow & imparts the skin with a delicious raspberry almond scent. No afer-smell as the formulation process contains a DHA odour-control process that reduces odour during application & colour development.

- Contains the latest in Spray Tan tanning technology with high levels of DHA for long-term golden bronzing with no orange tint.

the peeps at Pink Parlour do love to pamper us in e best way no?

I get fair within weeks but i never stay away from the pool or beach for more than a week.


for this entry,i deliberately not swim for a week so u guys could see the difference:)


For the spray tan to work more effectively


The folks at pink also give u a full body scrub before spraying the tan....nice!

okie here's me looking at the shade i want.

i love the effect of spray tan...it wont stop me from soaking up the sun at pool or beaches...but i'll be able to put spf when i am out in the sun next time.

i wont be so desperate to get a tan because i know i could be sunkiss golden anyway:)

the fake tan last for 5-7 days .

More details below.
