A lovely Valentine's to one & all...
Its mid-week and my brain's tired and pretty much fried

My 576 "milk" is quickly turning out to be a "beater" in my wardrobe. Think i have to break out the polishing cream pretty soon.

I swung by for a short visit to a longtime pal...ain't he a handsome jock? Quite amazed by how much he's grown; and he still recognises me! haha, i can't resist a wagging tail, and i think he sure enjoyed the attention i gave him, as did his lovely owner :)
Can't help hearing this song at the back of my head tho'...

...fearin' i too might say something stupid...
to the heavens...

What's that? it's a tiny lil' tiramisu by Crystal Jade! Just curious to try out if it tastes as sweet as it looks

Judging from the big chunk i scooped up, its lovely! [even left a lil' choco-something on the table, haha]

slam-jam-thank-you-ma'am

Much awaited pair turns up at the door, its the Slam Jam Terminators! I think the color combo is done just right, chocs and cherry red swoosh - like my tiramisu!

Wentworth Miller x GAP

I know quite a few gal pals falling head over heels for this dude. Cool-ass bloke from Prison Break...hmm, i think khakis are coming back again

Wyclef boner @ Shakira

Now i haven't watched this week's Grammy's, but this i gotta check out in real time. Wyclef getting what comes naturally when looking at Shakira, LOL

french toast.lil' green bag

Started out the day on a good note, coffee and french toast! Not too shabby, even though they looked like tau-pok [fried tou-fu]. A dash of sugar and it's all gone in the tummy, LOL.

Can ya spot me?
Seems like i was early for the bus [1st time in ages i swear], and played with the phone cam. Sporting the Serra's again today, was thinking of dropping by town later after work for some last minute V-Day shopping.


Been mesmerised by studio e paper's lovely cards. Not really sure if i can pull off something like that in such a short time, maybe will try something simpler. But on to the shopping...

Scooted off work early, something i'm doing quite alot lately i'm glad. Spotted my lovely pal Von, haven't seen her in years and she's still as hot as ever. Still amazingly single [but recently attached to a bf] and passionate as ever promoting the WCG.

Bape cycles.Zoopreme."Southwest Soil".Visvim Serra.StussyxLoweAlpine
Much has been said about promoting the level of customer service in SG. Somehow i still think its far from being ideal, like the type of stares or non-service to dudes in "street" clothes...whats up with that? Just coz i wasn't in shirt and pants? pfft
I didn't even give any attitude, just a dude browsing for gifts man.
And its not like i don't know about service, so whatevs, whoever provides me the service gets my dough

Finally decided on the little green box courtesy of the lovely lady at DFS [din catch your name, but much thanks]. And how cute is the Agatha hairclip? Couldn't resist

Nike 10AC

The 10AC pack drops outside of Japan, go get it at LE. We know by now its for the Caol Uno Showten, but for those still clueless, "10AC" is "CAOL" spelt backwards [duh]

letterpress penguins

still on Etsy shops, i love these letterpress penguin flat notes! Too bad they're sold out, will drop them a mail-nice!

logic puzzles
Retrokid flits in and out of the news sometimes, but check out what he's up to lately, logic puzzles[!]. It's said that major corporations use these type of qestions to test their applicants
====================================
Both Reed and Susan are Dr. Strange’s students. Dr. Strange’s birthday is Day N of Month M. Neither student knows which date it is from the following ten dates. Dr. Strange told M to Reed and N to Susan and asked them if they got his birthday.

March 4, March 5, March 8
June 4, June 7
Sept 1, Sept 5
Dec 1, Dec 2, Dec 8

Reed said, “If I don’t know, neither will Susan.”
Susan said, “Originally I didn’t know, but now I got it.”
Reed said, “Oh, now I got it too.”

Please infer Dr. Strange’s birthday based on the above dialogue in one hour.

Perhaps i'm just too bored, but i got my answer in less than 15minutes. What about you?

t'was the week before CNY
'07 sure is moving quickly along, blink and it's V-Day and the Chinese New Year already. I'm cracking my brains as to what to get the lady for Wednesday, any suggestions???
Serra Hiker

These babies are seriously comfy given the bulky stature/exterior. Well, comfy in the sense of a boot, not a loafer. Fit is almost perfect. Don't be fooled by the clean suede, some nicks have begun to appear, but like Hiroki says it himself, they have to be worn to bring out their character. Speaking of Hiroki, he has teepee/tent project going on for DSM and FIL. Dude is serious.

AF1 25th - Masterpiece launch
Dropped by the AF1 gallery at Clarke Quay for the Masterpiece launch.

Pulled thru' the archive and un-DS the Stussy Nexus7. W)taps BDU roll-ups and

took out the lady [3M snakes] for a walk. It's been ages since she's been out, hibernating in the ice-age, haha

Haven't been to the AF1 gallery since it opened 2 weeks ago, its a pretty nice set-up. Met up with Man and Seb[dude rocked the PE-xclusive AllStars, sick]. Crowd was slowly building up while i nursed a Heiny. Sadly, the cam chose to get worked up today and most of what i took came out like noise interference. Also caught up with Philip and Prisc when they popped in later, just back from the HK Yoropiko launch and TKO swing-back. Gave me breakdown of the upcoming Dragon and even the next ST33 details - the Japan shit will be hot. hint: Steve Irwin RIP [more on that much laters..heh]


view of the gathering from the back

shot of the display walls [courtesy Seb] and one of my faves aside all the hype rarities - Taiwans and JD's! [those soles still look crystal!]

shot of the Original 6 pack as well as the upcoming All Star Las Vegas gold pack
All Star LV will be the first time its held in a non-NBA city, and along with the AF1 25th anniv, Nike rolled out the AF1 and AF25 commemorative pack in premium/supreme leather with gold laser etching. The pack comes with gold-plated belt buckles and hang-tags[!]

sole obsession

Also got introduced to sneaker-nut Eugene, he'll be organising the Sole Obsession meetup. Remember the days of Niketalk summits and CT meets? Well, if you don't, i guess you belong in the hype-age. Eugene promises it'll be a low-key thingmajig, just a gathering of like-minded folks for a little get-together time. Free-booze, whats to loose? haha
See y'all down at the White Room. The dude's willing to part with a pair of Size? NB's [and a few yet-to-be-announced pairs] for the early birds. Get ready for a peep at the NB Yoropiko set as well.

Christina by Ellen von Urwerth

These BW shots are lovely!

Jenn's leaked on-set shots
I'm sure everyone remembers this shot of Jenn from the Rolling Stone cover [i still have that in mint condition somewhere] and asked for [just a little] more

And most men will have liked to be in Vince's position in this scene from the movie "the Breakup", coz this is what he saw:

Some German mag got their hands on the on-set shots, lucky you

Kelly Hu
I always thought she's hot

Have you found your Rabbit?
Probably not everyone's cup of tea, but Forest and Rabbit have pretty fun and innovative stuff out

I'm loving the redfox plush most

Peep the Rabbit and Redfox tees
But i had the chuckles when i saw this tee title "bikini girl tee"

And from the looks of it, it might be designed by/for local +65 boutique!
Besides the online shop @ noisyforest, you can pick 'em up at DoverStreetMarket, GuerillaStore +65 and 33J [in +65]

Roen rolls out the 3rd rendition of Disney characters, this time doing a swashbuckling Mickey. Roen's vinyl never ceases to amaze

house of holland

House of Holland is for those who like slogan tees and [supposed] UK wittiness. Personally i think its pretty cute and promotes friendly banter about design/designers. However at around usd60+ a pop, it doesn't impress/annoy/attract as much as it's worth. n any case, its now available locally at Ambush, together with the new aNYthing collection.
