2011 Golden Globes Worst Dressed!

The Awards Season is always an exciting time to root for our favorite TV and movie personalities and spot the latest trends that the stars are parading into the red carpet. This year’s Golden Globes proved to be another hit for a lot of our celebrities while some just missed it for this very special night in Hollywood. With that being said, we’d like to honor our best and named our worst dressed celebrities wearing the biggest fashion designers in the world.

For this edition, we’ll be naming our worst dressed of the night and the best dressed will follow shortly on another post.

Christina Aguilera

This Zuhair Murad gown is stunning but Christina wearing it was a big oopsy. Xtina reminds us of Snooki –separated at birth?

Julianne Moore

We hearts most Lanvin stuff and we love you Julianne but what are you wearing? a pink shield on your shoulder?

Sandra Bullock

Sandy, don’t be blindsided that we’ll not notice you just because you won the Oscar last year –this Jenny Packham dress deserved a better do!

Helena Bonham – Carter

I wonder if she’s channeling the designer of this dress? Vivienne Westwood could easily pull this dress than you Miss Carter!

Christina Hendricks

Boo for Mad Men’s Christina Hendricks for looking like a flower decoration at the awards night. Oh, for the credits –she’s wearing a Romona Keveza Gown.

Halle Berry

This Nina Ricci’s piece doesn’t really speak to us a something that would make Halle stand out. It made her unnoticeable.

ready for a Snoozefest?

Michelle Williams in Valentino.

Megan Fox in Armani Prive

Best Vogue Covers of 2010

Vogue as we all know is the bible of fashion and we just love how it elevates fashion into art! Monthly we update the Vogue  Covers that we have  as part of our theme (look at the right side of your monitor) and how we just love seeing these fierce top cover girls jumping from Vogue covers to covers each month in different editions!

So, with that being said –  here’s our Top 10 Vogue Covers of 2010 among all the editions that we came to see from the last 12 months.

10. Vogue Italia April 2010 With Amber Valleta – it looks a wee bit dated but stunning at the same time and we just can’t stop looking at it!

9. Vogue Germany May 2010 With Victoria Beckham shot by Alexi Lubomirski. – She look fantastic here, she look soft and vulnerable and it’s just the best that we’ve seen her!


8. Vogue Paris March 2010 With Rose Cordero – a black girl for like forever! Her moment has arrived and we are so loving this stunning cover!


7. Vogue Turkey March 2010 Maiden Issue with Jessica Stam shot by Patrick Demarchelier – What a great profile from Miss Stam and THE Demarchelier is just genius. Great start for the Turkish edition!

6.Vogue Italia May 2010  Daria Strokous and Kirsi Pyrhonen by Steven Meisel – The energy of this shot is so high, we could feel it oozing out from this cover,tbh.

5. Vogue Germany December 2010 With Edita Vilkeviciute -the red theme is perfect and so as her face which we’re so inlove with right at this very month of Christmas!

4.Vogue UK November 2010 With Lara Stone shot by Alasdair McLellan – Lara just put a spell on us and we’re forever bewitched by those gap-tooth!

3. Vogue Italia August 2010 Kristen McMenamy by Steven Meisel – totally epic! It’s probably the best cover shot by Steven Meisel this year!

2. Vogue Paris June / July 2010 With Kate Moss – She looks ethereal here and who doesn’t love Kate Moss on a cover???

1. Vogue Paris October 2010 With Lara Stone shot by by Mert & Marcus – She’s not the Top Model of The Year for nothing and this cover pretty much says it all!

Andre Condit is Pure Sin


New Mexico native Andre Condit is fast becoming the new boytoy of fashion with his naughty eyes and sexy smile, one can’t simply ignore this 21 year old Spanish/French eyecandy who’s now in New York booking more jobs since he was featured in models.com.

He is now under Ford Models (thank gawd)

His polaroids kinda reminds us of Robert Pattinson mixed with the genes of Michael Bergin.

We hope to see more from you Andre!

Vogue Philippines?

As of 2010, there are 18 international editions of Vogue, with Turkey as the most recent country to launch last March, with Jessica Stam gracing the cover. I can’t help but think of the day when the Philippines would come out with its very own edition. There is a need to get (purchase) the license to have such a publication, and there are probably tons of factors to consider.

While browsing the net regarding the “acquisition of a franchise,” I learned that the idea of having an African Vogue was rejected by Conde Nast, the publisher of the magazine. That is Africa! And I thought that fashion is even more prominent in Africa than in the Philippines, so I think that it’d be close to impossible to get the franchise of Vogue anytime soon.

An imaginary cover of Vogue Africa by Mario Epanya who’s pushing to get the license to publish the magazine’s African edition.

At the moment, five Asian territories are publishing Vogue. They are Nippon (Japan), China, India, Taiwan, and Korea – something that I do not understand. Philippine fashion magazines are doing pretty well in the country, and our fashion industry is very much alive! I could just imagine Vogue flourishing here! I am still hopeful that we’d be able to see the day of the release of the Philippines’ Vogue maiden issue!

Philippines’ Next Top Model Cycle 2 Petition!

Earlier this year, our wishes were almost granted when ETC by Solar Entertainment was promoting their line up of shows with the inclusion of the Cycle 2 of the Philippines’ Next Top Model but we were disappointed once again because we never saw a glimpse of a cycle to come after the said plug.  It was even rumored that it will be shown after the second season of the Philippine version of Project Runway but to no avail.

It’s been like three years since the first cycle of the Philippines’ version of Next Top Model was aired in the local television and our yearning for another cycle is still very much alive! A lot of speculation over the showing of the next cycle had been discussed over the net through forums and blogs by Filipino Top Model fans who believed that the support for this show is considerable enough for the local TV stations to produce it.

So to help our cause and make the Local TV hear our support to pressure them to produce the Philippines’ Next Top Model Cycle 2, we launch a petition in Facebook, hoping that this very powerful social networking could actually help resurrect this show.

Let’s all Unite for this FIERCE cause!

CLICK PICTURE TO GO TO THE PETITION LINK.

Calling TV 5, Studio 23 and ETC!!!

PLEASE SPREAD THE COMMUNITY.

America’s Next Top Model Cycle 15 Final 2 Portfolio Battle

And then there were two! Ann Ward and Chelsey Hersley are to battle it out on the final runway of Cycle 15, wearing Roberto Cavalli’s creations. Ann Ward sailed through the finale with a historic six first callouts in total, while Chelsey, who’s been consistent all through the cycle but never had a single FCO, impresses the judges with her determination and obvious knowledge of the industry. With the two girls battling it out for the title of America’s Next Top Model, who really deserves to win it? Whose portfolio is better, and whose performance will prevail in the end?
