Lanvin Heart Acne

After Comme des Garçons for H&M’s and Anya Hindmarch for Target’s hit the stores, now is collaboration between Lanvin and Acne turn!
The collection is set to appeal to girls and boys about town of all ages. Made entirely of denim, only the finest Italian and Japanese fabrics have been used in a collection that sets out to be classic yet sharp. To maintain their intense shade of indigo the fabrics have been given minimal treatment, resulting in dresses, pants, suits, coats, jewellery, shoes and bags in a multitude of blue hues.***
The Acne/Lanvin collection is available at Lanvin, Acne Studio and at their Campaign Shop.
Love Lockdown
Kanye West is back with his new single called Love Lockdown. At first I couldn’t believe that it’s Kanye West’s since it’s quite different from his previous songs, I think. Now I believe after I’ve seen the video clip on YouTube. Though I’m not a big fan of the video itself. If you can’t get enough of this song, you can try to listen to the Lil’ Wayne’s remix version of this song, good schtuff!!!
So yeah, I highly recommend this song! I’ve never bored listening to this song, until now at least.
Here’s the video anyway :
Enjoy!!!!
The Whitest Boy Alive
The Whitest Boy Alive – Live Concert @ RRI, Bandung, Indonesia.
Last weekend I went to this super cool gig at RRI auditorium in my hometown, Bandung, Indonesia. It supposed to be Jens Lekman’s gig but it got cancelled in a very short notice, so they got The Whitest Boy Alive instead to fill the show and it was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!
I even went to their after party at Embargo, Paris Van Java. Too bad I didn’t get the chance to take pictures with them! But I had plenty pictures of them!

No picture of me and The Whitest Boy Alive but I took pictures with the FACEHUNTER – Yvan Rodic. YAY!!!!

Basically, it was a great weekend for me and my friends. Really looking forward to attend another this kind of gig!
CHEERS!!!!
I’m Reading….
Choke by Chuck Palahniuk. The Author is the same guy who wrote Fight Club which adapted into motion picture in 1999 with Brad Pitt and Edward Norton as the cast. This year, Choke also adapted into motion picture directed by Clark Gregg, starring Sam Rockwell and Anjelica Huston.
The story is about Victor Mancini, a medical-school dropout. Needing to pay elder care for his mother. Victor has devised an ingenious scam : he pretends to choke on pieces of food while dining in upscale restaurants. He then allows himself to be “saved” by fellow patrons who, feeling responsible for Victor’s life, go on to send checks to support him. When he’s not pulling this stunt, Victor cruises sexual addiction recovery workshops for action, visit his addled mom, and spends his days working at a colonial theme park.
Quite interesting, right?! I haven’t finished read it yet though, hopefully I can manage to finish it before I watch the movie. Here’s the movie trailer :
Cheers!
Prada Vs BlackBerry
The newest Prada phone by LG now available improved with a full QWERTY keyboard while BlackBerry Storm goes touchscreen! Basically they’re doing exactly the opposite to each other. You know that Prada’s first phone was a touchscreen and BlackBerry known with their QWERTY keyboard. Anyway, which one you like better? Personally, since I’m more QWERTY person than touchscreen so I’ll go for Prada’s newest phone. Both are awesome though!
V for Vespa

Since the traffic is getting shittier and shittier, I really consider to start learning how to ride a motorcycle. I remember that I have ridden motorcycle only 2 times in my whole life! And actually it was never really “riding” a motorcycle. I was just hold the steer while my cousin sat behind me and he did all the rest riding thingy! Nowadays even a kid rides a motorcycle! My little neighbors ride motorcycle! I don’t know about their parents, but back then my parents didn’t allow me to ride it for the safety reason. Especially, there was a nasty motorcycle accident right in front of my house!
Anyway, I’d like to have a Vespa! Why so? Because I love its models and something about it that makes the person who riding it looks cool! Silly, I know. But yeah of course, mostly because I’ve influenced by the Italians.
They look good on it, for sure!
Don’t forget to wear a helmet while riding it!
Trollsen Twins

Talking about PETA, PETA was joining in Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen (a.k.a. Hairy-Kate & Trashley Olsen a.k.a. Trollsen Twins as PETA calls them) book signing “Influence” at Barnes & Noble in New York by set a demonstration in front of the store wearing Trollsen masks and held signs reading “Trollsens: Fur Hags From Hell” and “Hairy-Kate and Trashley Olsen: Fur Tramps.”

Ouch!
Anyway, click this to Meet the Trollsen Twins!
And also click this to read about an animal lover dumped a bag of flour over Lindsay Lohan head, shouting, “Lindsay Lohan, fur hag!” –Geez!
Gwyneth Paltrow for Tod’s
*picture from here.
Gwyneth Paltrow is the ambassador of Italian luxury goods brand Tod’s this year. She’s just perfect for the brand, I think. Though the ad campaign, which showing her wearing fox skin and leather boots while promoting ostrich and alligator skin bags, occurs a controversy. Yep, PETA strongly againsts it (and her). Totally. Oh well, I’ve got a flash back from zoolander’s scene right now. Mugatu versus PETA at the red carpet. :-D
