Vintage outfit for the modern chic

Posted by intan On February - 27 - 20101 COMMENT

Vintage is the in thing nowadays and lots of blogshops are selling vintage stuff.If you wonder what on earth is vintage clothing, well it’s actually clothing from 1920s to 1980s. Sometimes called retro especially if the stuff is from the 60s and 70s, lots of celebrities are also doing vintage nowadays inspired by look from past fashion icons such as Audrey Hepburn and Twiggy.

Maxi Pad with Wings for your iPad

Posted by intan On February - 27 - 20102 COMMENTS

We all  know  that Apple has launched iPad which to me is a monstrous version of iPod and honestly I’d rather buy myself a netbook (I’m a sucker for keyboard you see). But of course, it is rather super cool to own an iPad and people will surely look at you in an envious way.

And somehow, to remain true to the name iPad, one of the seller at Etsy is currently selling this:

Yes, now you can put your iPad safely  inside a pad (which looks like a real pad) and this pad even has its own wings! I forgot to add that the name of this product is iMaxi.

So I guess, tiada kebocoran lagi!

How often do you wash your bras?

How often do you wash your bras?

According to a British survey, some women only wash their bras six times a year! *gasp* Two times a year is like once in two months and that to me is extremely revolting. Can I assume only British women did that because the survey is among them? Seriously, I understand if you wash your jeans 6 times a year, but not your bras, please. I mean the placing of the bras itself which is quite near the underarms (which I might add usually get all sweaty) and the thing is actually fit snug to your chest, who knows what kinds of bacterias whatsover live there!

If your wife is as gorgeous as Victoria’s Secret model, maybe you can forgive her for washing her bras 6 times a year? By the way the pic and bras above is Angels by Victoria’s Secret.

If you wash your bras because you have limited amount of bras since they are too expensive then look around you for cheaper alternative. Hey, I know Jusco sells their in house brand bras – Scarlet at RM10-RM20. So there’s no excuse not to have more bra. And we’re living in the 21st century, so if you’re too lazy to wash your bras by hands, there’s always the trusty washing machine.

But then, if you just like the smell of smelly bras and maybe your husband has fetish for it, then what’s more can I say?

I wonder where did they  find the women who were willing to dish the dirt for this survey and who actually did it.

By the way I also found this question on Dear Prudence column in here.

Dear Prudie,
My girlfriend of six months has worn the same bra every day now for two weeks. I really wonder: Is this a normal thing for most women or a psychological issue? I feel it is a matter of hygiene, abnormal behavior, and also really gross.

My advice to this guy: Just find a more hygienic girlfriend!

Maya Karin is getting divorced?

Posted by intan On February - 26 - 2010ADD COMMENTS

The Star reported today that Maya Karin has admitted that her marriage is in trouble.

According to the report:

“My marriage is going through a rough patch at the moment,” said Maya, 31. “But we’re trying to see if we can work things out.”

The star of Pontianak Harum Sundal Malam, however, declined to say the cause of their troubles.

“It’s not true that we’re having problems because of cultural differences,” said the Malay-German beauty.

Personally , I think that most Malaysian Malay celebrities who marries foreigner end up in divorce. There was Sarimah and Sasha who went through the same thing. I’m not sure why, maybe it’s the culture differences? Maya even said it was not the culture differences problem since she’s a mixed parentage herself, but Sarimah and Sasha are also of mixed parentage yet they still have problems in the marriage to foreigners.

Hope Maya find the best solution for her marriage though.

Sequel to the Twilight Saga: Eclipse

Posted by intan On February - 24 - 20102 COMMENTS

Are you a fan of the Twilight Saga? Well, I am a huge one and I am known to read all the gossips involving Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson every single day. Embarassing I know, but they are a gorgeous pair and meant for each other!*drool* Anyway, after Twilight and New Moon, the next instalment of Twilight Saga which is Eclipse will be out on June 30, 2010.

It’s still months to go, but fret not Twilight fandom, Summit the studio which produced Twilight Saga has leaked a few teaser photos for Eclipse.

Expect lots of fight involving the werewolves and vampires, and of course sizzling onscreen chemistry between Edward and Bella. Seriously I can’t wait for Eclipse. I am such a mad fan girl inside when it comes to all this Twilight Saga thing! *sigh*
