See this performance where he decided to ditch the gameplan and guitar hero wayyyy pass the agreed time. Even when the security dude asks him to leave, he carries on!
badass
too bad the MTV for November Rain cannot be found on youtube. It features Slash at his most badass guitar hero godhood. High hat, leather vest (i think) with his face covered by his hair and a cigarette sticking out.
If only finding a simple minimalistic table is so easy in Singapore. Seems really easy to find online though.
You can find them but at what cost. The prices really seems to imply that 'less is more'.
Cut from a single piece of plywood, the 'uni table' by charlie davidson
I forgot what this table is. But it has a very simple and clean design which allows the natural beauty of the wood grains stand out. And the handle of the drawer looks so natural. It is the analog in an otherwise binary design.
Not everyone can afford to live the MUJI lifestyle...
Gentlemen. This is as green as it gets. Made from recycled materials, this eco-friendly sex toy comes with no batteries.
the longest 8 minutes of your life
How does it vibrate then? Good thing you asked. You crank it up using the hand crank of course. Just 8 minutes of cranking provides and hour of juice (it's a slang for electricity, you shallow shallow man)
em... you can wake up now
It even have 4 levels of speed and a power (juice) indicator. The indicator should be inversely related to the actual juice in question (que to smile sheepishly).
Michael Jackson passed away and kids worldwide heave a collected sigh of relief.
I kid, I kid!
The world has more good things to say bout him than bad. Here is how I remembered MJ.
First I must say that I am no fan of his. I don't really idolize any stars. But this is a man who turned from black to white. The one who made walking backwards so goddamn cool. He who made grabbing your crotch ok-able. And who thought that standing on your toes like a ballerina could be so damn stylo? How did he do the 45 degrees tilt thing?
awwww!
He was big when I was really young. All I could remember were his MTVs I saw back then. The one where he walks on the streets and whichever tiles he walked on will light up. omg coolness.
Anyone remember Moonwalker in 1990? A game on the Sega Genesis platform. In short MJ goes around defeating baddies by dancing and spraying pixie dust on 'em.
And get this: he replenishes health by collecting blonde-haired children. A mega irony considering MJ would be involved in various scandals regarding children a few years later. But seriously... collecting children to gain health?!
rainbow + children + MJ should NEVER be in the same picture
What about his fashion influences? How many youths back then wore the white singlet + unbuttoned shirt combo? HOW MANY!?! That red thriller jacket? The glove? Check out this handbag inspired by that jacket.

He might look and behave gangsta and all in his mtvs but when it comes to interviews, he talks in a polite, almost shy manner. Kind of like a kid. Some may find it kinda creepy, I thought that it was pretty charming.
If you turn on MTV these few days, every program is about MJ. The next time this kind of tribute frenzy takes place, it would be Madonna. But by the way that lady works out, I think we'll have to wait a few more decades.
As poorly he was reported to be with money, he actually owns most of the rights to the Beatles' songs. That is like the one single stroke of financial genius from way back in 1985. Lucky Lenon wasn't around long to see this. Paul was pissed off the charts. He fought with Michael Jackson over this for years. According to this article, it was his fault actually.
all your musik is belong to me
But apart from that MJ is like the brick in Super Mario where you can hit it repeatedly to get coins until it dies out.
ding ding ding ding ding!
Here is MJ with Britney Spheres back in 2001. Man Britney was kinda hot back then.
tee hee hee
Surely the Elvis Presley of our times, Micheal Jackson. He will be missed.
Not particularly impressed with this one. I mean the color is safe (and boring) and the looks, clean and minimalist. Someone have to explain this to me.
maybe a certain local political party can be dressed by Jil Sander
can add some style points and beats going clubbing
Anyway, since i recently was granted a stupid hairstyle (some call it 西瓜头, some call it a moptop) due to the army, maybe I should give this look a shot.
who needs colors?
I mean I already have the geeky specs, the stewpid hair and face. Other than the possibility of being laughed at, what do I have to lose?
What is equestrianism and how is it related to fashion?
ok la... more like this:
Equestrianism refers to the skill of riding or driving horses. This broad description includes both use of horses for practical, working purposes as well as recreational activities and competitive sports.ok. So?
Look at how it have influenced so many brands today.
the Hermès horse had a flat horseshoe
My guess is that horse riding (for competition) has always been an expensive sport reserved mainly for the rich. As such, it conjures an image of the good life. The upper crust of the society who, most of the time, dresses impeccably. Thus the whole luxe image come into fruition. If you know the true reason, do let me know. On another note, here is another horse related brand logo.
Birdcages should not be used to house birds! Here is a better application for them.
milan based collective carnovsky comprised of francesco rugi and silvia quintanilla have sent in the images of their new bag collection named 'artificialia' birdcage bag. hand made in italy by artisans, 'artificialia' bags are made of natural materials such as wood, rattan, silk, velvet, leather and tagua seeds from south america. bags are lacquered with bright colors.
We wanted to offer clothes that are particularly individualistic. Changing the shape of the pants and breaking the silhouette with color add an energy, even a brashness, that feels invigorating
says the Bottega dude. Fine.
Man totes are not cool. Besides, it is too stressful to maintain a full leather manbag.
Dude. I can see your nipples. Not cool. Not cool at all.
but I cannot take my eyes off of it
you're just too good to be true... can't take my eyes off of you you'll be like heaven to touch. I wanna hold you so much
ok. Getting too gay.
I'm referring to this classic hit from Lauryn Hill. I liked it so much that I wrote down the lyrics on the wrapper of a gift for shuyi years back. I don't do the whole lyrics thing you see very commonly in blogs (emo AND lame), but yea I did that. Shuyi (who never throws stuff away) still have that wrapper somewhere.
Anyway, on with the program.
I particularly like the jacket of the left. A fantastic take on the varsity jacket with a play on the silhouette. Brown is a safe colour and it appears to be the theme for BV this season but this design can do well in other colours as well.
picnic basket + strap + model = win
You can replace the scarf (BV scarves should be pretty rape-ass expensive) with something that have a local vibe. How about a good morning towel?
local flava
With some confidence, you ca surely pull it off and get some approving nods along the way. Either that or mocking sniggers, which with some ego, brush off and view as ignorance.
And the no-socks loafers look i'm trying to pull off since my italy trip is so cool.
This is slash.
