The Mis Cosas Team came up with a foldable weekender because they saw the need of people having more compact and useful items in their day-to-day living. This January, they have release their newest product – the Mis Cosas Foldable Weekenders which caters to people who are always on the go but have very little space in their home. This particular product is being sold through their website: http://miscosasonline.com or through their multiply site: http://miscosas888.multiply.com.
Weekender Bags are usually very large and very hard to store. However, each and every individual at one point in their life, find a need for it. It may be that weekend getaway, or a 3-day/2-night retreat or as simple as a 3-hour gym workout. Now, Mis Cosas has came up with a perfect solution by offering the market a huge bag that folds into a 7 x 9” pouch for easy storage.
Truly, this bag comes in a small package but when unfolded, a 19 x 6 x 16″ ( L x W x H) bag unfolds. It is also easy to carry with a 11” handle drop which allows you to carry it comfortably over your shoulders. For more storage, the bag also features 2 outer pockets with zippers and 1 inner pocket with zipper which allows you to keep small items such as car keys or hair ties. This bag also comes in a waterproof nylon material which is the same material that as the waterproof Mis Cosas Crayon Carry Alls that was released last year. This simply means that aside from the fact that it is waterproof, it also can carry very heavy load.
To cater to the different tastes and preferences of the market, it comes in 8 different colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet, gray and pink. For those among you who worry about the bag being dirty, don’t fret because the materials is washable. You can just wash it everytime you feel that it’s not in its best condition anymore.
Each bag is being sold at PHP 1,200 at the Mis Cosas Website (http://miscosasonline.com) or through the Mis Cosas Multiply site (http://miscosas888.multiply.com). For more information or orders, you can also contact the Mis Cosas Team directly through their email address (miscosas888@gmail.com).
Brazilians are one of the most beautiful people in the world! [FACT1] That I have to agree since we have Giselle, Adriana, Alessandra and a lot of today’s so-called Supermodels hailing from this South American Paradise! [FACT 2]
With that being said, it is not only the female Brazilian models making waves in the fashion industry but also their male counterparts. With these demi-gods of beauty sprouting like mushrooms in Brazzziww, the oh-so sexy magazine “Made In Brazil” was conceived.
Now on its 4th edition since its inception last year, Made in Brazil has become the new Playgirl with taste and the new Vogue Homme that is uber-sexualized.. (oh that’s just me, shoot me now! lol)
We all know that the main selling point of the magazine are not the clothing and whatever pieces of accessories that the models had on. It is the models themselves that make this venture a very lucrative one – on a limited basis even! Pure genius if I may say! Almost naked Zeus-like guys that lured us into buying and anticipating each and every edition to be more daring and provocative than the last one.
Is it too much? Do you think they’re showing too much skin for art’s sake or is it really for art’s sake? I’m not asking these question to create a debate on the sexualization of the society or about stuff being art and some scholarly bs stuff – I just thought that by posing these questions, I maybe trying to ask if its still fashion-able or should even be considered fashion (because most of the guys in the magazines are actually working models) or is it mere stunts to produce this type of magazine simply to generate income where fashion has become irrelevant but is being used nonetheless.

Each year, girls from all over the country flocks in Araneta Center, Cubao to submit their application to the most prestigious and oldest national beauty pageant in the Philippines headed by Mrs. Stella Marquez de Araneta, the Binibining Pilipinas. All of these girls are hoping to be part of the official candidates of this pageant that send girls to international pageants such as Miss Universe, Miss International and Miss World (until in 2011 when the Miss World Organization decided to grant its franchise to another pageant director that conceived the first Miss World-Philippines Beauty Pageant )
After the great success of Venus Raj and Shamcey Supsup from the past two edition of the Miss Universe – where both placed as 4th runner-up and 3rd runner-up in 2010 and 2011 respectively, pageant pundits are more than ever eager to see the girls that will follow their footsteps.
Some of the girls rumored to join this year’s edition are ABS-CBN talent and Channel V VJ Megan Young, Hotel singer and model, Ali Forbes, TV5’s Arci Munoz and the two runners-up from last year, Janine Tugonon and MJ Lastimosa – both hoping to do a Dianne Necio this year.
This year is expected to surpass last year’s edition and the battle for the two grand slam crowns (Universe and International) is said to be a bloody one come finals night. Each camp managing some of the girls who are said to be joining are secretly watching each other’s back to measure the caliber of the girls that they will be fielding for the screening.
If you think that you’ve got the guts and the goods to take over the Universe and the International beauty arena – the screening is extended until February 7, 2012. Will this year live to its hype? Let’s wait and see….

Here we are again giving out the honors for our Best Dressed List in this year’s Screen Actors Guild Awards!

4. Jessica Chastain in a cerulian blue Calvin Klein blue stood out from the crowd the second time around after her Givenchy number at the Globe! Well done Jess!

For years now, I’ve been trying different products to eliminate my blackheads that cause me too much discomfort as the years go by. I mean, it’s not really that big of a deal – it’s just annoying at times because I tend to get irritated whenever I see whiteheads / blackheads populating my nose.
I’ve read about iWhite last year and thought that this would be another one of those products I’ve tried before. Then, a friend at my new job told me that she actually tried it and it kinda works for her so that convinced me to try the product myself.
iWhite Nose Pack is made in Korea that uses ingredients like mulberry root extract, panax ginseng root extract, aloe vera leaf extract, vitamins A,C and E and a lot of other ingredients. I bought mine at Watsons for P189 that according to the sales lady would last for like a month which is not so bad. She’s even trying to sell me the iWhite facial wash and moisturizer (?) but I thought of buying the nose pack first since I’m not even sure if it’s going to work. (and I’m using another brand of facial wash and moisturizer)
When I opened it – it kinda smelled like glue (yeah, like the Elmer’s Glue) – and the texture of the cream was also glue-like although iWhite‘s thicker. It’s tolerable though and when I applied it, it feels kinda weird because the smell became stronger obviously because of where I’m applying it.
According to the product’s direction, I have to wait 15 minutes for it to dry before peeling it upwards. Peeling it was just okay – very easy and doesn’t cause any pain at all – unless you are really that sensitive.
The results? I would like to think that it’s one of the better products that I’ve tried in years since I immediately saw some blackheads when I peeled it off -it won’t remove most of your blackheads at once since you gotta do it 2-4 times for best results. I’ve been using it for like a month now but mostly just about twice a week and it was okay I guess. For 189 pesos, it’s doing its job and I’m pretty satisfied with it. I would still go to facial spa’s but I won’t mind buying iWhite again.
Rating: 3.5/5
Former supermodel Cindy Crawford’s daughter Kaia Jordan Gerber made her modeling debut for the first ad campaign of ©Young Versace.
10-year old Kaia without question has inherited her Mom’s supermodel genes posing confidently for the designer’s line that will cater to children up to 12 years old! I personally think that she’s got this all-american sweetheart thingy going like her mom and I won’t mind seeing her on the cover of Vogue or any fashion magazines anytime soon! (although I still find her a wee bit too young)
Mom Cindy also used to be a muse for the late designer Gianni Versace.
Will she be Cindy C V2 without the mole? I’d say….ooohh yeah!
