A blessing in disguise

Radioactive spill

Oh dear, looks like L’il Kim spilt Fake Bake down the front of her dress while rushing to put a golden glow in those surgically enhanced cheeks of hers.  Fortunately it’s for a Sex and the City event, the natural home of loud colour combinations. Hooray for minor tanning accidents and their unintended high-fashion outcomes!


Jennifer Hudson, maintaining equilibrium

A penny for my thoughts?

No, no it’s not what you think at all.  Jennifer Hudson isn’t looking for any handouts - in fact with her debut single starting to hit the airwaves, her pecuniary situation should be quite promising in the near future.  It’s merely a delicate balancing act that needs to be performed when there’s a generous bosom and a low-cut dress involved.

They runneth over

Evil Disney Queen

Hello there, ladies - got something to hide, like a hickey, vampire bite or Adam’s apple? Day or night, it’s a look that will protect your neck from prying eyes and other harsh elements!


The Bra from JAPAN

Energy-saving

Charge those babies up, Triumph’s Photovoltaic-Powered Bra is here! According to the caption:

The camisole bra, which the company calls it as “earth and human friendly”, features a solar panel which can display messages on the removable small electric board when the cell generates electricity. The bra is also equipped with pads designed to hold beverages so that the usage of cans and plastic bottles can be reduced, the company said.

Bearing in mind that it’s actually underwear,  I’m kind of excited about the ability to cleverly conceal unidentified liquids and communication devices beneath my everyday clothes.  Don’t you love it when lingerie and technology conspire to make spy movies the stuff of reality?


Reader question: dress codes

Friday, May 23rd, 2008
By Spirit Fingers

Q: I get invited to many parties but never end up going because all that high falutin’ hoity-toity dress code mumbo-jumbo confuses me. What’s the difference between “smart casual”, “semi-formal” and “formal”? Please help me improve my social life.

A: To keep it simple, I will rely on some highly effective visual aids.  A bathing costume alone would be construed as “smut casual”. But add some accessories, pockets and boots and presto, it’s “smart casual”!  Now, “semi-formal” is a little bit more upmarket and usually there’s a dress involved.  It can be short or long or short with a little bit if long thrown in.

Black is best

Finally, “formal” requires something a little more elegant like a full-length gown and some fancy jewellery.  Remember to keep things classy by covering those legs from hip to ankle. Now that you are fully conversant with the aforementioned terms, you may sally forth and resume your hob-nobbing with utmost confidence! 

Sheer sophistication


Don’t neglect your ladygarden

Stop and smell the roses

Sure, it’s tempting to follow Sarah Jessica Parker’s horticultural ways but you better stop and think about what you’re getting yourself into.  Can you handle the undergrowth? If your pruning skills aren’t up to scratch, it could take days to hack yourself out of there.

In need of a trim

All plaid out

No doubt about it, plaid is set to rule the arid steppes of Boratland once again! Only question is: how much (or little) crotch space works for you?


Oh, the Hilarity!

Polly want a cracker? 

Well, wouldn’t you be bursting into a fit of giggles too if there was a constant tickling sensation around your neck and shoulders? And if someone turned up to the premiere of a movie called “Blindness” dressed like this?

What’s this movie called again?


Leader or follower?

Bo peep + sheep

Which of the above appeals to your innate sense of style more? From this simple test alone, we can determine whether you forge new paths in fashion trends or are content to be one of the herd!

The age old dilemma

Wednesday, May 7th, 2008

Hawking our wares

Charity benefits can be tricky things.  There’s always a quandary over what’s going to get those wealthy industrialists to notice you more.  Do you showcase your boobs by strapping them down in the same manner as the Lilliputians did to Gulliver? Or is it better to hike your skirt up around the armpits and go with the legs instead?  Choose wrongly and you could end up going home with one of those underperforming hedge fund managers instead *shudder*.
