Samba or bitten by Mamba?

Fashionistas are also obsessed with this event. To watch sadness and grief breaks my heart for them L 

Shocking beauty?

Beautiful NOT utilised here  L

At this time of age, I always believe that anything is possible. I expected Brazil to lose. To watch them annihilated is out of this world. Germany’s triumph will be remembered for the wrong reasons.

For better or worse, Germany’s fast5 performance is impressive! Check it out!

1)      There were 179 seconds between Germany's second and fourth goals.

2)      Germany were 5-0 up after 29 minutes - faster than any team in World Cup history.

3)      Germany are now the highest scorers in World Cup history with 223 goals, overtaking Brazil.

4)      Germany striker Miroslav Klose becomes World Cup history's record goalscorer with 16 goals in 23 games.

5)      Germany are the first team to score seven times in a World Cup semi-final.

I believe there are forces at work behind these obliterating events. I may be paranoid but write me your thoughts and enlighten us all!

I pity Neymar’s semi-final’s absence, but, hey! I admire a new World Cup Star named ‘Nemo’. Check him out because he is not too bad off field too ;-)

Bright future awaits you in this fun and exciting success!

Preparing a night out with team mates to celebrate success, yeah! 

 Chilling out with pets Rocky and Balboa, woof...woof...

Viva Festival!

There are many trendy outdoor events in the summer from Soccer World Cup 2014, F1, Wireless to Glastonbury and countless more. Unfortunately, clouded by excitement, my fashionistas tend to overdress or under dress L Not to worry. With my expertise and research, I have compiled the almost perfect outdoor outfit. Once again, without fail, though after my long absence from fashion writing, I am confident my fashionistas can continue partying in style with tips listed below…Yea…;-)

1)  Light Coloured Top – Worried your light won’t stay bright? “Layer up: pop a colourful cape over a white top or tie a shirt around your waist to protect light coloured shorts. Scientifically, a lighter colour reflects more heat and absorbs more positive energy. These will fuel you and your mates for that all day activity.

2)  Bag – “A small handbag is fine: all you really need is SPF, hand sanitiser, lip balm, money and your phone. A long strap keeps it out of the way while dancing.”

3)  Shorts – “Invest in shorts like you would jeans: a great pair will be just as useful off the festival grounds. Refrain from tight or super-short for that comfort, mobility and decency without sacrificing style. Ensure that your shorts colour is darker than your top for that staining durability. If all fails, then dark coloured boyfriend jeans is the way forward

4)  Boots and Flats – Wedges outside VIP area is fine. Embrace the evergreen trend with the comfort and mobility of flats.

Hat and shades top these off, party on fashionistas…

After reading, which is the ideal festival outfit? Hmmm…

You don’t have to be Rosie to steal her style, where applicable, of course ;-)

Maleficent, magnificent!

 Get ready to meet your match, Evil!

 It is payback time!

This movie is reminiscent of my life since I discovered my talent in fashion. More coincidental, one of the characters has a very close resemblance to mine and my present journey. Do you know which? That is of course, excluding the happy ending, YET!

Throughout Maleficent, I am transported from my present darkness to a world of hope in the form of sorcery in fantasy. Magic, fantasy and nature are all my favourites and inspirations in fashion. Maleficent’s costumes incorporates all these, hence one of my favourites ;-) The princess has very disappointing costumes. Maybe this is in line with the story. This is opposed to the prince. A hypnotic charm for all princesses… Awww… It is my favourite prince costume by far. All can be improved and the injection of COLOUR in appropriate scenes should have more impact.

It is a story of nature fighting back against the greed and tyranny of human. These are also some of my causes. I hope these humans will experience soon! The moral of the story is how one good turned evil. The one element that returned that one to good is a surprising and logical too J My favourite scene is the appearance of the dragon…burnnn…

Since I started reviewing movies on my website, this is my FAVOURITE one. Yes it is! This may be due to many personal connections I have with Maleficent and the happy ending that awaits me. To me, it is a MUST watch and worth every penny. Meet you at the happy end, Yippee!

Is this the princess? You be the costume judge.

 Comfort, harmony and beauty for all, as Mother nature intended J

Natural rebels, FINALLY appears...

...and for all who do not appreciate, TAKE THAT, RoaRRR...

Inspiration from SUBmarine and aloe VERA. Now that IS a strange combination of machine and nature.

Clip-on Shade from DANGER :-O

The complete sun shade set.

I have been using prescription spectacles for 15 years. I always hate them! After hunting high and low for a year, I have finally found a new pair I embrace. From Cyber Eyeworks unisex pair, it features plastic frame, clip-on polarized shades, flexible spring hinges and a variety of vibrant colours and designs, one has to be contempt. For my prescription lens, I choose Hoya HVP (Hoya Single Vision & Progressive) aspheric, high index 1.67, UV protection, multi coating with scratch resistant. With my first time donning shades, I am loving my prescription spectacles!

Rising temperatures and apparent global warming? Never has been a better time to purchase the most functional prescription spectacles. As I always think of my fans, listed below are some tips for making that wise ;-) selection:

1)    Plastic frame – Plastic is a bad conductor of heat. This feature will protect your eye from burn and heat.

2)    Shades – UV protection, plastic lens and polarized are important features for frequent outdoors.

3)    Spring hinges – For accidental collisions, this will increase durability.

J Listed below are tips to maintaining the showroom look eyewear:

1)    Prescription lens – Face spectacles downwards with temples facing upwards. Wet finger tip with water. Gently rub lens. Then wet finger tip with a little bath gel and repeat. After, use a very damp microfiber lens cloth and gently wipe lens and then the whole spectacles. Lastly, use a dry microfiber lens cloth to finish.

2)    Polarized shades – Rinse in slow tap water. Then dap gently with microfiber lens cloth. Depending on usage, (1) & (2) should be done at least once at day’s end.

3)    Storage – Always store spectacles wrapped in microfiber lens cloth in a hard case. It should  face upwards. 

 Remember to protect skin with SPF 50 sunblock too! Now we can enjoy the sun and the bright future it energizes.
