pinksushi — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 06:45:48 +0000

I love spring editorials. They just make me happy and I can’t help but smile whenever I see light colors, flowers and if you add beautiful faces and superb styling to it, then it’ll be a great visual treat, right?

Korean beauty Hye Jung Lee wears spring fashion styled by Eun Ji Jung and lensed by Ryoo-Hyungwon. I love those pretty accessories and I seriously want those see through black shoes, I’ll even forego those Circuit City coupons someone is giving me as gift in lieu of this. Ha. And the handbags are just LOVE.

Vogue Japan March 2012 with Bianca Balti on Cover

pinksushi — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 04:45:21 +0000

Love this cover! You know not every model is made to strut that corset look but Bianca Balti is definitely a great choice. She makes it work! Cover shot by Giampaolo Sgura for Vogue Japan March 2012.

And whew! I’m a happy camper since there has been a slew of very pretty fashion editorials and covers from Asian fashion magazines this first quarter of the year. Lots of pretty things to see and I don’t even need to have icverify to know that there will be lots of featured fashion stuff here again..

Here’s a Moulin Rouge inspired editorial from Harper’s Bazaar Korea January 2012 edition. Featuring Yesuel Lee, photographed by Kim Taeeun and styled by Seo Eun Young.

What’s you verdict? Ho hum. I find this a bit boring. Some parts were okay but the whole spread was forgettable…

Kayu Aga House in Bali

pinksushi — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 12:56:15 +0000

It’s been awhile since I last featured a unique Asian home. I guess I was side tracked by all these gorgeous fashion spreads and rv insurance readings. I was hopping about the web again reading on some current trends when I came across this featured house at the Contemporist.

Gorgeous would be an understatement. And definitely worth featuring here in my art and architecture section. The Kayu Aga House by Indonesian architect Yoka Sara. This gorgeous retreat is located in Canggu, Bali.

Can you imagine having this house as your weekend retreat? I can and I wish I could live in some place like this. What a beautiful use of space and light. I love designs like these.. it plays and highlights the natural beauty of the place instead of covering it up with concrete and gaudy stuff. Breathtaking, isn’t it?

Han Hyo Joo Glams Up for Cosmopolitan Korea

pinksushi — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 11:59:09 +0000

She’s one of those Korean actresses who I did not like at first glance. It was a gradual thing, I guess. And a testament to Han Hyo Joo’s incredible appeal, that I found myself watching all of her dramas. By the time I watched Dong Yi I was already a big fan. She’s not classically beautiful, but she has that arresting features, lovely appeal and the camera and the screen worships her. It doesn’t hurt that she can at least act compared to her contemporaries.

Fan of her dramas I am but I love her most in photo shoots. She can really work most looks and themes. She can be girly, funky in oakley sunglasses in one shoot, then she can be all out movie star glamorous in the next. Just like in her latest Cosmopolitan Korea photo spread.

She channels old movie star glamour in this gorgeous gorgeous photo shoot. I love the dresses and I wanna have them. The question is where I’ll be using them? While scrubbing the bathroom? Lol.

Welcoming the Dragon Year!

pinksushi — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 10:31:50 +0000

How’s everyone? It’s the second day of the year of the dragon and I’m still buzzed. We had a fun fun time since the Chinese New Year is one of the biggest celebrations in the family. It’s the time for us to all be together, cook food, make offerings to our ancestors.

And yesterday, it was a day for merriment, more food and fun. It was not a day for mellow, mood music like what an acoustic guitar brings in but noisy, blaring drum rolls to usher in the year of the Dragon. Everywhere here in the city, there were dragon/lion dance performances. The Chinese do believe this wards off evil spirits and ushers in good vibes and luck.

New year for me means new beginnings. And always I feel more drive to work more, succeed more. And I’m wishing everyone to have great tidings this year. Xin Nian Kuai Lei, dear readers!

Gong Xi Fa Cai!

pinksushi — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 04:52:01 +0000

The international new year just ended and here we are preparing for Chinese New Year! I always look forward to new years! It’s a start and it always pays to have a positive and energetic mind set. It’s also always a great time to set goals and make wishes. So whether you wish for prosperity, peace, business luck or even something as simple as stainless steel jewelry, it never hurts to give it a try.

As for me I want to wish for good health for my family, myself and my friends. Prosperity and good luck for my ‘ventures’ this year. And also the chance to extend my gratitude to those who had been helpful and a chance too to forgive and be forgiven for those I crossed and whom have crossed me.

Let’s all start the year of the dragon with good spirits and good heart. Gong Xi Fa Cai, everyone!
