Run to the Giorgio Armani corner... Run and don't look back!


I was celebrating my sweet sixteen last week ( I know, I wish...Whatever! ), and a lovely fashionista friend of mine , bought me the perfect gift !

Yes I am using the word PERFECT!
For something like 10 years , I have been addicted to Red lipstick ... My dear mummy being french, she always said that red lipstick and a touch of Chanel N5 were enough to get ready for any occasion ... from a cup of tea under the amazing and unforgettable sun in south of France , to the craziest Parisian parties... I learn my lesson and here I am, 10 years later... I feel like my confidence is growing when I am wearing red lipstick (and as well always feel like my dear Maman is close to me ! ).

10 years... During this long time of faithfulness, I have been wearing Chanel Rouge ! it took me a dinner with my Hong Kong BFFs, a party to celebrate my 25 years old and a few glasses of champagne to cheat on Chanel ! I now have the taste of Giorgio on my lips ... and I think it's now too late to go back...

This lipstick is brilliant and lasts all night long! I can finally drink and kiss my boyfriend without having to stop by the washroom 268 times a night to fix my make up...

Brilliance ... just run and forget your old lipstick...

Frida Gustavsson for Elle Sweden November 2010








Alright! I have been trying hard to hide the truth to myself when it comes to Swedish style...

My other half being Swedish , I spend a good part of my time making fun of Swedish people and their perfect and magazine lookalike style...

Here it goes ... I am absolutely jealous of Swedish people!

Why do they get everything ( And careful , I AM ONLY TALKING FASHION NOW !) right !????

I remember walking in the streets of Stockholm last summer and it was everywhere ... Fashion was everywhere! They don't even try , they are Fashion (with a capital F)

Then don't need to spend a lot to look good, and just know what to wear and what accessories to pair it with to turn a casual style into a brilliant, extravagant, creative style...

Enough now ... all this to say that this shoot in the new issue of Swedish Elle looks beyond amazingness... Those boots are to die for, Frida never ever looked as stunning and we love the countryside/horse riding kind of topic (being a horse lover ! )

Have a lovely sunny day in HK and don't forget : keep an eye on Swedish people...

You know what they say... Keep your friends closer, your enemies even closer !

Peta offers Lindsey Lohan to pay for her rehab if ... She goes Vegetarian


PETA, finding out that Linds has fallen on "tough economic times" has offered to help pay for her rehab…under one condition.
She has to live substance free, including the most toxic substance, MEAT!

The letter sent to Lindsay read:

Dear Lindsay,
We understand that you've fallen on tough economic times, so we're writing to you with an offer that we sincerely hope you'll consider.
PETA will help pay your $50,000 bill for substance addiction treatment if you'll rid yourself of one more toxic substance: meat. As you know, a crucial part of any recovery is showing charity to others. One way to do this is to be kind to animals, the Earth, and your own body. You'll never regret it.
When animals are crammed together on factory farms, disease spreads fast, so cows, chickens, and other animals are fed large amounts of antibiotics to make them grow more quickly and keep them alive in filthy conditions that would otherwise kill them. However, the health risks involved in using such methods are so great that many countries have banned the use of antibiotics and hormones in animals who are raised and killed for food. In addition to feeding antibiotics to animals who are raised for food, farmers in the U.S. give powerful growth-stimulating steroids to cattle, which means that you ingest drugs every time you take a bite of chicken, pork, fish, or beef. Many animals are also sprayed with pesticides. And consuming animal-derived products exposes you to pathogens such as E. coli, listeria, and campylobacter. Finally, much of the meat sold in the U.S. is contaminated with fecal bacteria.
The good news is that a clean, tasty vegan diet can provide all the nutrients that you need, minus the contaminants, saturated fat, and cholesterol that are found in animal flesh, eggs, and dairy foods. Vegans also have stronger immune systems than meat-eaters. It's all good news.
Today, stores carry everything from soy "Buffalo wings" to fakin' bacon and fib ribs—not to mention a wealth of fresh fruit, vegetables, nuts, grains, and more—so it has never been easier to go vegan. California rehabilitation centers have a great reputation for catering to vegan patients too. To help guide your decision, we'll be sending you our new "Glass Walls" DVD, narrated by Sir Paul McCartney, and our vegetarian/vegan starter kit, which is full of useful information.
Please let us know if you'd like to take us up on our offer. I can be reached at XXXXXXXX.

Best wishes,

Michelle Cho

Ellen DeGeneres dresses up as a Snooki Poof for Halloween!


We love it!
Although it's fun to go as Snooki for Halloween this year, Ellen DeGeneres took it one step further and dressed up as Snooki's Poof.
"That's Snooki down there," Ellen said of the orange Cabbage Patch doll at her feet. "I'm the poof. She's the actual size. She is that short. I met her in person. I was almost late for the show because I didn't take in account how long it takes to gym, tan and laundry, everybody."

OMFG ! Woman Kills Baby For Bothering Her While She Played On Facebook


This is sickeningly horrific.
A Florida woman named Alexandra Tobias has pled guilty to the second-degree murder of her 3-month-old son after he interrupted her while she was playing the Facebook game FarmVille.
According to investigators, her child, Dylan Lee Edmondson, began crying while she was playing the farm simulation game, and she lost her patience and shook him so hard that he may have hit his head.
She could face up to 50 years in prison.
As she should!
A monstrous act! And all over a game on effing FACEBOOK! Absolute nonsense.

Keith Richards talking about the way he snorted his daddy's ashes!


In his new book Life, Keith Richards admits that he did inhale the remains of his father, despite the fact that his reps insisted he was joking.
Richards wrote:
"I really DID snort my father's ashes. The truth of the matter is that after having Dad’s ashes in a black box for six years, because I really couldn’t bring myself to scatter him to the winds, I finally planted a sturdy English oak to spread him around.
And as I took the lid off of the box, a fine spray of his ashes blew out on to the table. I couldn’t just brush him off so I wiped my finger over it and snorted the residue.
Ashes to ashes, father to son. He is now growing oak trees and would love me for it."


WOW! No words.

Mr Guerlain sued over Racist sayings...

LVMH owned perfume house Guerlain is being sued by anti-racism groups after Jean-Paul Guerlain dropped the n-bomb on TV.
During the French state TV interview, Guerlain was asked about his new fragrance Samsara, to which he replied: "I worked like a n****r. I don't know if n*****s have always worked like that, but anyway."
Because of Jean-Paul's insensitive comments, Al Sharpton and other US civil rights activists hope to meet with French president Nicolas Sarkozy to discuss what the perfumier said.

Brokedown Palace ....

Whether she’s leaning on an ornate barrister or preening against peeling paint, stylist Elle Werlin brings out the best in Richards’ romantic, edgy style with Louis Vuitton, Missoni, Alexander McQueen, Jean Paul Gaultier and more.
