My First

Top from ROSS (only $13!!), skirt from H&M(also around $13), Steve Madden Shoes

Today was a rainy day and we didn't have much natural light which makes my pictures to be a little dark.

I promise to take better pictures next time.

I am currently obssessed with this British singer named ADELE.

She is absolutely amazing. It's so great to see good singers like this.
This is exactly what we needed

Love, Aimee

Say hello to WESTFIELD - the Europe's Largest Shopping Mall.

Today is the day. London's largest megamall, and the said Europe's largest indoor shopping arena has finally open its door for the public. Boasting of more than 250 stores, plus some anchor stores like M&S, House of Fraser, Debenhams and the fabulous "THE VILLAGE" where big players like Prada, Louis Vuitton, Versace, Burberry and the like - it is indeed the 'IT' shoppers' paradise.

WESTFIELD - as the name synonym to where it's located, in West London (Shephard's Bush, to be exact), is not just about the place to flash your credit/debit card. It's about the immaculate, spectacular piece of architechture with a cliche glass roof (reminisce the Great Court of British Museum) in a silhouette of trees. It is soooo damn large, with an area as big as Buckhingham Palace, the mall is indeed spacious, very airy and so much light seeps through.

The opening ceremony is graced by the London Mayor, BoJo, while the infamous British model, Erin O'Connor opened the catwalk show. And the BIG surprise is when Leona Lewis emerged through the stage - performing series of new songs, plus the big hit, Bleeding Love. Keep bleeding..keep keep bleeding love... (I would cue, oh shopping...shopping, shopping that I love!)

Well, it seems that I have to add another location in my weekly shopping itinerary. Westfield. It's time to 'SHOP IN THE NEW LIGHT"!


The entrace facade look surreal.

Minha Tattoo 76, Danilo Cabral

Danilo criou e fez sua primeira tatuagem em busca de proteção. Confira as três fotos e história de sua tattoo.

"Opa, meu nome é Danilo tenho 18 anos e essa é minha primeira tattoo, uma mandala de proteção (na batata da perna). Esse desenho fui eu quem criei quando tinha 17 anos e tatuei com 18 as inscrições. Estão em hebraico e significam "ADONAI (senhor meu deus) MAS ME LIVRAI DE TODOS OS MALES AMEM" ainda falta pintar e colocar o simbolo "hom" no centro, mas ficou bem legal!!! Tatuei no Junior do estúdio Rinsing Force que fica na barra funda em São Paulo."

....Talking About Ties....

Plain white shirts give men freedom to go for pattern in ties. (Quoting what I said previously...). In last week's issue of Shortlist, plaid and paisley ties make a big comeback. The forest colors such as green, brown, chocolate and grey hues dominating the designs.

My choice? Definitely the plaid or stripe. Simple, understated, classic and the most important non-seasonal. (Paisleys and prints are not my cuppa tea anyway - coz they are seasonal!). Love the Louis Vuitton's one. Very chic (but damn.. too expensive!). Btw, I love the cheapo tartan in my previous purchase!

(Didn't I just review some of the best tartan/check ties before...?)

Exposição de fotos com membros de gangues tatuados

Integrantes de gangues da África do Sul e suas tatuagens, compõe a exposição Life After da artista Aramita de Clermont. A britânica de 37 anos, fotografou por mais um mês os corpos ilustrados de membros de gangues da Cidade do Cabo. Grande parte das tatuagens foram realizadas enquanto os integrantes estavam no presídio.

As obras estão em exposição de 1 de Setembro a 1 de Novembro, na galeria João Ferreira, estabelecida em Cape Town, África do Sul. Trata-se de uma das principais galerias destinadas à exposição de obras de artistas contemporâneos. Após a África do Sul, as obras seguem para Berlim.

As histórias de Danny, Frank, Martin, Stranger, Tamatie, Omar, Lewis e outros integrantes de gangues, podem ser conferidas no site da BBC.

Plain White Shirt: An all time classic.

The simplest thing is always the hardest to find . I've been searching for plain white shirt for a long time. Not that all the stores don't have one, but they don't have THE ONE for me. I just need one that fits me well (yeah, I mean really fit!), affordable (I mean cheap, actually), design not too tacky and the most important the fabric has to be right - thick, cotton. Is that too much to ask?

In the recent LondonPaper, it is reported that the sales of plain white shirts are booming. Debenhams's white shirt sales increases 50% since the credit crunch hit the nation. And fashion expert predicted the trend will continue as City workers made redundant splash out on new interview outfit.

A white shirt sends out the message that you are professional. Neckwear is back in fashion, so plain shirts give men freedom to go for pattern in ties. There are some tips of choosing plain white shirt:

- Avoid too cheap white fabric, as the fabric will be transparent.
- Buy a lot, replace often - there's no hiding stains or greying cuffs on white.
- Use your tie to add color, but keep it sober. (A 'toothbrush' or Batman tie is a no no)
- Don't wear black suit plus white shirt, or you'll look like an undertaker.
- Use deodorant - wet patches show up on white!

In my quest of plain white shirt, my pick would definitely be the one from Zara and Burton Black Label. While Topman's is also not too bad (the 25 pound, not the 20 quid one).

Autumn 2008 Scent-sational!

Shortlist's Autumn 2008 fragrance pick.

Fashion is not just about clothing..it's about everything that you put on your body..or hold on to you (ehem...exclude your spouse or pet!). That's including perfume. Well, new season, new smell. Not the smell of the falling leaves or steamy road due to raining (eventhough I do like the smell of freshly cut grass), but the fresh and 'muskiness' of the new masculinity. Autumn scent give a bit 'deeper' blend compared to summer fragrance. A bit of seductive flair, if you may. Think wild vanilla and bergamot instead of citrusy feel.

In the previous issue of Shortlist, autumn 2008 saw a refined fragrance, not just about the blend, but the design of the bottle as well. More symmetrical, masculine and luxury. Now a fragrance is not just a fragrance; it's also a collectors' item!

My pick: Diamond for Men by Gorgio Armani, Paco Rabanne's One Million and Calvin Klein's Intense Euphoria.

(P/S: Didn't I just review PR's One Million and Kenzo Power in my last blog entry?)

Shortlist's Autumn 2007 finest scents.
