When Girls Rule The World

Have you ever wonder how the world would be like if women rule, and males are extinct? The Chinese are taking fantasy to the next level and play up the eroticism factor, for all I care. I am intrigued yet flabbergasted at these futuristic Anime-like editorial for China’s FHM as photographed by Chen Zhun entitled, ‘40p Static Movie - Bullet Speed‘. FHM, as we know, is a male magazine with high testosterone levels. This piece of work is published in the 3rd anniversay issue.

True to the title, you can see all the photo sequences (it ties up to a cop-criminal chase with big guns, big bikes, explosions, sexy uniforms you name it) right here. Let’s just say, China is really stepping up in their creative superpower because I think this editorial really kicks ass! Please note that photos are not in sequence and my story doesn’t quite make sense if you get my drift.

Is the monkey a MAN?

You need anger management, woman!

Balls of steel. LOL.

You’re getting a speeding ticket, missy. Love those police pants!

Does your mama knows you’re wearing that boob-squeezing top?

Superman has started a trend. Wear your knickers outside.

Cute uniform. This is a lesbian fantasy.

Don’t move or I’ll shoot you with my stiletto.

I want to live in the world where women have long legs.

Escape in style, check out the bags!

You’re right. They have a really high sex drive.

I Heart Jena Malone

Jena Malone may not ring a bell - but you may have seen her in some indie flicks such as Saved!, The Dangerous Lives of the Altar Boys, Donnie Darko or The United States of Leland. No? She’s not your average Hollywood starlet but this ingenue is making her waves in the indie circle, and she dares to be different. Last year, she appeared in Into The Wild (which I’ve been wanting to see!) also starring Emile Hirsch.

I know I’m a little late but Jena Malone was the cover feature in Dirrty Glam’s April 2008 issue. If you haven’t check out the mag, please do! They’re awesome except I can’t understand it – English translation, I beg you. So, I manage to feast my eyes in the editorial which is good enough for now.

Sophisticated Jena. I love her black number with that killer necklace. Yum.

Love that vintage bag! She does have an eclectic style, very different from her peers.

Angel in White. I don’t think blonde is her color.

Jena and Zooey. My two favourite girls.

Fashion Rocks 2007: In My Tribe

What happens when you throw photographer Steve Meisel and a beautiful set of “IT” models together? You get a mind-blowing, crazy editorial that is can simply be summed up with two words: BEAUTIFUL CHAOS. The concept is to revive four fashionable cult groups with a modern twist. This amazing editorial features Agyness Deyn, Caroline Trentini, Gemma Ward, Iselin Steiro, Lily Donaldson, and Sasha Pivovarova. I can’t help thinking how much it is to be on the photo shoot. Talk about fashionably late - this is Fashion Rocks 2007’s “In My Tribe” editorial.

Get outta my way, Punk!

It’s all about the Rave!

We’re sooo MOD.

Kiss me, my little Goth girl.

Fash-E Loves Zooey Deschanel

I fell in love with Zooey Deschanel when I first laid my eyes on her in one of my favourite films of all time, Almost Famous. She struck me as a smart, funny and bright-eyed ingenue and I wanted to know everything about her. Zooey not only acts, but she sings as well. Also, she has an impeccable sense of style that is genuine and surprising at times. I even have a “Zooey” folder in my Mac with my favourite photos of her. Cheers to my favourite indie girl in Hollywood (besides Parker Posey, of course) for scoring her Lucky magazine July cover!

Zooey lookin’ very prim and pink at the premiere of ‘The Happening’. Also, a dated photo from the 2006 Teen Choice Awards - I love the big bow and black stockings. Is this still relevant today? What are your thoughts?

This is one of my favourites - Zooey in the infamous Vanity Fair issue with nekkid Scarlett & Keira.

I Heart Photo Booths

NYLON magazine has archived a library of photo booth pictures from their NYLON Summer Music Tour. And, we’re spotting famous faces in the album. The Super Booth, as they call the crazy travelling camera box has caught some priceless moments and I can’t help but enjoy the faces snapped in a confined box. Agyness, my love!

A couple of years ago, Jan and I went to an old photo booth which Wayne discovered along Middle Road to take this strip of crazy photos. Unfortunately, that particular photo booth doesn’t exists anymore. We took these shots for our Amazing Race Asia #1 application - which we didn’t get selected because AXN only wants pretty famous faces (Boo!). They’ve no idea what they’re missing. LOL. Our hairstyles were so funny back then.

Fashion156: The Nautical Issue

Sun. Sand. Sea. I need my annual beach holiday and luckily for me, I managed to get good flights to Bali in August. The boy and I had a voucher to use for the The Ritz-Carlton, Bali Resort & Spa and this is the perfect timing since flights during August skyrocketed like crazy or worse, sold out! We managed to snag newly released flights via Jetstar Asia - awesome. Anyway, I’ve been day-dreaming about the sea and Fashion156’s The Nautical Issue makes me drool over hues of red, white and navy blue… oh, stripes too:

Catalog Mag: The Pretty Freaky Fantasy

Singapore’s Catalog Magazine is one of the best “free” fashion magazines around. I usually grabbed my free copy from anywhere, and everywhere I see it. Otherwise, I’ll check ‘em out on via their website. Their May 2008’s fashion spread, Pretty Freaky Fantasy is absolutely whimsical. Do check out their website for more high-res images:

Claudia Schiffer is Hot Mama

(Photo: Telegraph)

The cover says it all. Claudia Schiffer in only knickers and a cat-mask posed for reowned photographer, Mario Testino. Even the titled screams, “SEX by Mario Testino” - don’t think that needs much explanation but it certainly builds everyone’s anticipation for this Vogue issue.

Yours truly will be taking a short holiday for the long weekend. Be back on Tuesday!
