Update: So, BB has yet to reply my email or sms. I guess he is either busy or just couldn’t be bothered. I don’t know. Well, that’s all for now.

We’re back for another week of Bestest TV Style. The best of fashion from my favourite TV shows, of course. Let’s just say Gossip Girl totally rocked the house last week with one of the biggest episodes ever with guest appearances such as Michael Kors (reportedly a big fan of the show) and socialite Tinsley Mortimer in her second appearance in the show. Lipstick Jungle introduced a hot new guy for my favourite character, Victory Ford. Let’s hope this goes somewhere! 90210 is still the same - nothing too exciting but clothes still look good. Project Runway S5 is heading to Bryant Park very soon. This is one emotional episode and a good one too. Can’t wait for what’s in store this week!

Gossip Girl: “The Serena Also Rises”

Michael Kors and Tinsley Mortimer is in the house!

Eleanor Waldorf’s fashion show. Socialites saved the day!

Jenny Humphrey has cute dress, don’t you think? I love her BAG too!

Blair always rock the vintage-modern look. And, headbands are still ‘in’.

Serena rises again, as she’s the new Paris Hilton.

Lipstick Jungle: “Help!”

Nico’s royal purple dress looks outstanding!

PRINTS! I like.

You don’t need to look powerful in a suit.

Mummy-chic?

Imagine. Playing John Lennon.

90210: “Model Behavior”

Silver in silver. HAHA. I dig the fingerless leather gloves.

Mummy is a photog. And, she’s good.

Seriously. Do high school kids in Beverly Hills dress like that?

Stripes and bright red wedges. Sweet!

Project Runway S5: “Nature Calls”

Only four contestants left. The pressure is mounting. This week, contestants visit the Botanical Gardens and take photos of nature that will inspire their design. Here’s Jerrell’s and Kenley’s designs respectively.

Korto’s and Leanne’s. Can’t wait for Bryant Park!

Bestest TV Style: Week [22/9 - 26/9]

With the abundance of stylish TV shows, I decided to start this new “weekly” summary of the best fashion, hair, finds on my favourite TV shows. You can expect to see fabulous styles from Gossip Girl, 90210, Lipstick Jungle, Ugly Betty and etc. Here’s a quick recap of the bestest TV style for week 22/9 to 26/9:

Lipstick Jungle Season 2

The girls are back! Lipstick Jungle is back with sassier storylines, but same fabulous ladies. Season 2 started with a funeral, and three best friends chuckling away in the front row - now, that’s something you don’t see often at a funeral.

Funeral-chic. I guess black is mandatory at funerals. Make a statement with pearls or big, long, layers of necklace. Clutch-bag is easy - you don’t want to be bringing your entire ‘world’ with you.

Gossip Girl

Queen B, step aside because Queen S is taking over.

Blair’s style is impeccable. Can hockey look any hotter? Love the red bow belt.

Who’s the new girl in school? Naughty, naughty Dan Humphrey.

Headbands and navy skirts. Who loves the schoolgirl look?

90210

Annie and Ty. I’m not too hot about their chemistry but they both look good.

Silver looks tomboy chic in this all-black get up.

Kelly and Brenda look ultra-good for their age! Cute dresses.

Silver in plum-colored clothing. The beret is kinda adorable.

Naomi has awesome clothes and a pretty face. I love this jacket with the dress.

Project Runway Season 5

This has to be the most interesting, and craziest challenge of Project Runway history. Each designer has to design an outfit inspired by a musical genre for another ‘designer’. You can imagine the chaos! It’s fun to see what their interpretation of each musical genre and some didn’t even “get it”. Leanne is Hiphop on the left, and Korto is Country.

Jerrell is rock ‘n’ roll. Kenley ‘Spears’ is Pop. She looks so different!!

Suede totally stole the show with his punk impersonation!

*skips* Gossip Girl is back on 1st Sept with the brand new season. I’ve to say, the episode didn’t disappoint. I just realised how much I love the show and its clever witty script. “Karma is a bitch, and so is Blair Waldorf”. Classic. This season continues with more sex, more style and more tongue-lashing between my favourite ‘unrequited love’ couple, Blair and Chuck.

Cute summer look! I love the pink belt. The floral dress. Chuck and fedora.

Oh yeah. I miss the beach. Love the rattan picnic basket and retro-look.

Love hurts. Blair is looking blue after the summer break.

The White Party. We get it. Love love Blair’s dress and her head piece.

Serena’s golden locks intertwined with bling bling. Nice. Even Nate looks casual hot.

Wow. What do you call this? This actually works on Chuck.

Love her vintage-inspired pinup swimsuit! I want!

GG has endorsed bicycles as the next hot accessory! Time to break a sweat!

Mmm, a lovely green print summer dress. How come Blair’s got the best stuff?

That’s Tinsley Mortimer playing herself in GG. Cute gold clutch.

Jenny is back in the game.

Beach-chic. I wish my Bali wardrobe were as cool. Till next week, xoxo.

YAK PAK Megu: Birthday Gift #1

So, it’s my birthday month and Bubster said I can pick my presentsss, haha. I’m not a spoiled lil’ girlfriend - wait a minute, I’m kinda spoiled but I am reasonable. At least I would like to think so. I don’t think boyfriends should spend ‘too’ lavishly on a girlfriend unless he’s earning mega bucks or has a big trust fund. My Bubster is earning a decent income but I don’t believe in him buying me anything more than say, $1K.

Recently, a friend got his girlfriend a Prada handbag for her birthday (and he’s a full-time university student!)To me, that’s a holiday for two - it’s too much for me, but I think it’s really awesome for him to do so. I think you should set a healthy ratio of the price of the gift against your income. Subjective? How much do you think boyfriends/girlfriends should spend on their partners?

I picked my awesome non-branded bag for my birthday - haha, a YAK PAK Megu handbag (retailed at SGD$59.90) from Spin The Bottle. Bubster and I love this multi-label shop - firstly, it’s a breath of fresh air from the local fashion scene. They bring in cool brands like The Lifetime Collective, Fortune Denim, GAMA-GO and etc. We bought a few T-shirts and a GAMA-GO bag from them over the past year.

Jenny Humphrey carried this in an episode of Gossip Girl. Avril Lavigne has been seen with one with skulls print. I just found out today that YAK PAK handbags come with lifetime warranty for any manufacturing defects. I got the YAK PAK Megu’s Grey Ivy Forest. I spent a fair bit of time deliberating between this one, Grey Bamboo, Black Swallows and Pills.

YAK PAK Megu handbags are made of soft cotton twill with satin interior. I was looking for a casual, weekend mid-size handbag and this is cute, even though it’s not exactly cheap. It’s also their best-selling purse range. I love the size of the bag, and it’s versatility. It also comes with a cute keychain in the built-in pockets. Hee. That’s yours truly’s birthday gift #1. It may not be Prada but it’s pretty fabulous!

Gossip Girl Season One Finale: Bitter & Sweet

Finally. Gossip Girl first season has come to an end. I can’t believe we’ve to wait till September, Fall till the second season begins. Yikes, what are we going to do in between? Let’s focus on the present and here are the hot, stylish wedding shots from yesterday’s episode:

Serena VS Georgina
Yes, it’s a style showdown. Who’re we loving? The sweet, casual-chic Serena in skinny jeans OR bad-girl biker jacket and dark-coloured Georgina? Because I do not like G, I’m giving the Serena the thumbs up!

Pink and Floral
Blair Waldorf has the cutest clothes and accessories. I think she looks pretty in pink in this spring-lovin’ floral halter trapeze dress. The flower neckline is an on-going trend of the moment (see Serena’s bridesmaid dress below). We’re definitely feeling summer for this GG wedding. Love the headband!

The Lovebirds
Are they’re staying together, or dunzo? I will not spoil it for you but let me just say that both relationships have a bitter-sweet cliffhanger till the next season. Are we loving Lily’s bridal style? I think it is very age-appropriate and I loveee the diamond necklace. Serena’s yellow tiered-chiffon bridesmaid dress paired with black gloves, black belt and a black corsage - simply amazing. I love it.

Who’s The Girl?
The new Mrs Bass, Lily, introduced this mysterious girl as her “decorator”. Is she Chuck’s latest conquest - or not? Anyway, we’re digging the royal blue dress and her white gladiator heels. And, ooh… that bag!

Skinny Headband
I love this heart-print top that Blair is wearing but this isn’t a good picture. We see lotsa tied-up hair with waves and skinny headband. I don’t wanna explain what’s going on in this picture - watch and go figure. Now, I can’t wait for Season Two.
