I don’t have enough accolades for the latest pictorials of Shin Mina for Rag & Bone. While I like R&B clothes, I think it’s overrated and passable at best. But after seeing Mina so lovely and comfy in their threads, it’s succeeded in making me covet what would otherwise be pretty ordinary clothing. I like the color photos more, which … Continue reading →
Cha Seung Won bagged himself a Style Icon Award last week in Korea, and this week finds him in Taiwan for the grand opening of the Bulgari store at the Taipei 101 building. I swear that man was born to wear a suit. He probably came out of the womb bespoked, LOL. He’s insanely popular in Taiwan mostly due to … Continue reading →
If I were a stoner and bandied about using their lingo, I’d call these set of pictures of Kim Sun Ah for Armani “righteous”. She looks classy, womanly, and sophisticated, just the right combination to model some watches for the European brand. Her last project, the movie Fighting Spirit with Kim Joo Hyuk, was a modest success at the box … Continue reading →
The first pictorial for the Winter 2011 collection of Codes Combine are out, and the spokescouple for the brand (since the Fall collection) are the reunited Jang Geun Seok and Park Shin Hye since their You’re Beautiful days. I do like these pictures, but can’t help but wish they were better. The dead looking Wintry background looks fake, and the … Continue reading →
I often wonder what it’s like to be a breakout star. 2011 started off with Yang Mi hitting the jackpot with Jade Palace Lock Heart, and ends with Liu Shi Shi rocketing to fame with Bu Bu Jing Xin. I’ve been following Shi Shi’s career for years now, so it’s kinda weird to see her become so mainstream, complete with … Continue reading →
When Rainie Yang first debuted, she was the very essence of the girl-next-door sunshine girl, and she’s cultivated a very down-to-earth image for her entire career. 2011 was the tenth year anniversary of her entertainment career, and it’s no high praise to say she’s hitting one career achievement after another. After Drunken to Love You and releasing a hit album, … Continue reading →
When actors you love or even simply like are in projects that you don’t want to watch, either because it sucks or it just doesn’t work for you, it’s pretty depressing because it’s like having a candy that you know will end up tasting yucky. But you still have to restrain this urge to nibble on it anyways. For Reebok‘s … Continue reading →
Uniqlo, the more technologically-advanced Old Navy/Gap of Japan, continues with its Asia conquering strategy by finally entering Taiwan. Earlier this month the company simultaneously opened six stores in Taipei with a splashy entrance. It hired six famous entertainers as the first wave of Uniqlo spokespersons there. Joining the adorable pairing of Bolin Chen and Ivy Chen are singer Yen J, actor-director Doze … Continue reading →
A new season is approaching, which means the clothing brands whip out splashy new catalogues to lure shoppers into buying clothes no one ever “needs” but is conditioned to believe are “must haves”. Therefore its must be time for Gong Yoo and Lee Min Jung to do their tour of duty for Mind Bridge, a casual young adult clothing brand in … Continue reading →
One of the most unintentionally funny fashion spreads last year was the “Into the Battlefield” concept collection for Nuovo Down, featuring Chun Jung Myung, Lee Seon Kyun, Lee Jung Jin, and Jang Geun Seok looking really really dirty. But still very pretty. The company must love that particular concept because this year we get “Into the Battlefield II”, a redux … Continue reading →
‘Tis the season for more weddings! Or at least I sure hope so, because weddings always make me happy. It’s just a celebration of love, hope, and commitment, regardless of what the future holds. Yoo Ji Tae and Kim Hyo Jin, who have dated since 2007, announced in May that they were engaged and planning to tie the knot later … Continue reading →
Yoon Eun Hye was in NYC last month doing an endorsement for Calvin Klein that was used as pictorials in various magazines. Her individual shots were featured in Dazed and Confused, but she and TOP (of Big Bang fame) did a couples shoot that was just released for November’s issue of W Korea. These pictures are very femme fatale seducing … Continue reading →
Now this is one noona-dongsaeng romance pairing I’d totally love to see. Perpetually baby-faced quirky beauty Choi Kang Hee, coming off of a great turn in Protect the Boss, went to Barcelona for a photoshoot with Kim Soo Hyun for Singles Magazine. I initially didn’t know where they went, but one look at the first picture and I KNEW it was … Continue reading →
