Michael Jackson (August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009)

It was not just any morning when I logged onto Facebook and found out about the lost of the 'King of Pop' from my friend's status. It is pretty sensitive subject Placing the videos I like is my way to remember him for years to come. It is be difficult to imagine what the music and culture would be like today if he was not there to influence us.

UPDATE: Scroll down to the last video of the entry. I found this video on 'Threadbanger'; a tutorial on making a 'Michael Jackson Tribute Jacket'...but not the studded version...




The Way You Make Me Feel



Beat It




'Billie Jean' on 'Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever' 1983 (When the moonwalk craze began!)



'Bad'



'Scream' with Janet Jackson

Lastly, how to make the jacket (but looks more like a top)...

Jimmy Choo for 'H and M'


Well, here we go, another collaboration! The title says it all! Hitting the store on 14th November, this Autumn, one might be able to afford something from Jimmy Choo. It has been said that it will feature shoes for both men and women, plus a collection of garments and bags. However, these range will be a little bit more exclusive as it will only be sold at 200 selected H&M outlets around the world. Judging from this photo, it looks rather promising...

Now ladies, we can afford to say "Hello Lovah!" like Miss Carrie Bradshaw at the window to a pair of Jimmy Choo!

Fashion Show at the 'Races'

Fashion show, located at the horse racing course at Longchamp du Chantilly (Paris) was done by Studio Berçot (school) on the 14th of June 2009. These clips (split into different parts from my understanding...) here show works from various students from the school.









Comments? Honestly, I'm not digging it but then again, who am I to judge? A few garments were quite interesting. I guess I had to be there to experience it...since from the clip, it looked like a
beautiful day! Also, I would have worn this feather hair clip I bought from "Liberty's" (during my trip to London)....
