The Fashionality Of Jessica Sanchez

Posted on April 26, 2012 | 1 comment

American Idol Season 11 powerhouse, 16-year old Jessica Sanchez have been wowing America and the world with her enormous talent beyond her years. After a near elimination, Jessica still continue to chase her dreams on the show – aside from singing, another thing that I really love about Jessica is her fashion sense! She’s so chic and elegant – this girl can wear anything and pull it off! Maybe we ought to thank this season’s fashion consultant Tommy Hilfiger for really doing a good job!

Let’s look at Jessica during her performances not only impressing us with her singing prowess but also with her mere fashionality!

2012 Binibining Pilipinas Winners – Up Close and Not Too Personal!

Posted on April 16, 2012 | 2 comments

So I was actually late at the venue and the male host Xian Lim just announced the winners of some special awards and right after was the announcement of the top 12 semifinalist. It was an easy call because my favorites were all called except for Jaine Hidalgo. I really wondered why? Hmmm. Anyways, I was very satisfied with most of the candidates answers during the Q and A portion with just a couple of ladies faltering in answering their questions – those were Liezl Alcantara who apparently “misheard” the question and Annalie Forbes who really had “an old fashion choking moment” but was allowed to answer beyond the 30 seconds limit. I thought she handled herself well and was still very poised. It was just surprising that she end-up winning 2nd runner-up with Elaine Kay Moll, the tallest candidate hailed as the first runner-up.

I actually predicted the two main winners correctly, that is Nicole Schmitz for Binibining Pilipinas – International and Katrina Dimaranan for Binibining Pilipinas- Tourism but I was in total awe when they annouced Janine Tugonon’s name as the successor for the Miss Universe – Philippines.  I mean, it was a bit expected since there were rumors that the title was already reserved for her but I really thought that crowd’s favorite MJ Lastimosa outshined her all through out the evening who is also a repeater of the pageant.

Anyways, it’s all good though. Janine still has about eight months to prepare for the Miss Universe and I’m hoping that she’ll represent our country as well as the other two in such a way that we could be proud of!

Good luck Ladies!

2012 Binibining Pilipinas Parade Of Beauties Snippets

Posted on March 27, 2012 | Leave a comment

Here are some of the pics that I took from this year’s  Binibining Pilipinas Parade Of Beauties that was held last Saturday, March 25 around Araneta Center, Cubao. This time though, the candidates are clad in some elegant one-piece bikinis which I thought are more appropriate compared to previous years where contestants are in two-piece skimpy bikinis. Kudos to the BBP team!

Madonna – I Fucked Up

Posted on March 20, 2012 | 1 comment

Can I just say how stunning this song is from Madonna’s up and coming MDNA album?  After the release of the first two single from her up and coming album, I was able to listen to this song and decided altogether that this would be another epic album from the Queen herself. She’s back with yet another haunting single! Oh, yeah eat your hearts out Riri, Katy and Gaga…

I Fucked Up is from Madonna’s up and coming twelfth studio album to be released on March 26, 2012. Be sure to get your copy of this amazing album from the Queen Of Pop.

The Official Candidates Of The Binibining Pilipinas 2012

Posted on March 16, 2012 | Leave a comment

I know that the names and pictures of the candidates for this year’s Binibining Pilipinas have been posted all around the blogosphere but I thought of still posting ’em for reference. At first, I thought this year’s  such a disaster but after the girls got all glammed-up, it turned out to be another strong batch of hopefuls! Rumor has it that there’ll be five crowns at stake come coronation night. I would have to confirm that before I post any updates about the pageant 🙂

My 2012 Oscars Best Dressed!

Posted on February 27, 2012 | Leave a comment

Another night of glamour came upon us as the stars of the good ‘ol Hollywood took the red carpet by storm in this year’s Academy Awards! Here are my Top 10 Choices for this year’s Oscars….

10th Place goes to my favorite Emma Stone in a fuchsia Giambattista Valli gown and Louis Vuitton jewels! The Help star never fails to impress me and this time, it ain’t the ultimate dress but she made the top 10! Congrats bb…

9th. Possible Best Actress winner and Emma Stone’s co-star  Viola Davis is wearing an emerald green Vera Wang creation and she’s not wearing any weave! Girl.is.rocking.it! Bravo to you Viola!

8th. Jennifer Lopez can do no wrong with this champagne strap Zuhair Murad dress with a peek-a-boo sleeves! Welcome back to the list ‘ma!

7th. The girl with the dragon tattoo Rooney Mara is still as shy as her character and it’s working on the red carpet! I love her in this white sculptured Givenchy Haute Couture floor length gown.

6th. Let’s face it, Angelina’s the closest thing to perfection! In this Versace dress, LaJolie’s A+ power and stature is undeniable!

5th. This is the 2nd year of Jessica on my list and she’s doing really great! She’s nominated tonight for The Help she’s wearing this amazing hand-embroidered Alexander McQueen gown. She looks exsquisite this lady!

4th. George Clooney’s lady love stole the show by showing up in a gold Marchesa gown. Girl look so godly she’s untouchable!

3rd. I’m not really a fan of Michelle William’s pixie hair cut so I tend to ignore her from the past awards season but tonight is different! She’s glowing and channeling Marilyn Monroe’s sheer elegance and beauty in this Louis Vuitton red peplum gown!

2nd.  Milla Jovovich is wearing a one-shoulder Elie  Saab couture with matching retro hair and red lips! This is how a kick-ass red carpet should look like!

∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞

ULTIMATE BEST DRESSED

Gwyneth Paltrow

The Oscar winning Actress is wearing this white  dress number from Tom Ford’s Fall 2012 Collection and she looked ethereally beautiful!  I’m totally speechless!

FHM Philippines March 2012 Cover – Too Sexy Or Too Racist?

Posted on February 26, 2012 | 1 comment

I was astounded to see the March 2012 cover of the FHM Philippines. At first glance, you would really notice actress Bella Padilla on the cover because of her bright pink swimsuit and her fair skin but reading what’s written under her name is just cringe-worthy! Stepping out of the shadows?? What were they thinking? Plus using dark-skinned models as extras? What’s that supposed to mean? This is seriously a poor concept from FHM. I’m sorry. I can’t….at this cover.

The people behind this cover may think differently but the cover is class-less.  Hello creative director????? Are you guys trying to say that she’s stepping out of the Padilla’s shadows? I mean, that’s fine but the concept is horrendous. Okay, I’m gonna stop here. I mean, it’s not like I’m such a puritan dissing the cover. These are just my personal views – I collect your  yearly 100 sexiest edition and this cover literally made me swear! 

◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊

I just thought of updating this post about the massive reaction this cover has gotten from the last couple of weeks, FHM Philippines apparently made a “wise” decision to change the lay-out of its March 2012 cover.  Personally, I’m happy that they made such action because the cover really did offend some people and although the harm has been done   I think it’s commendable that they at least did something to appease the ire of the majority.
