<br />
I was concerned about her career going solo so soon, but i guess when your in the peak of girl group extravaganza you must branch out. Her talent is obvious as her body is inspirational, but so are many other female artists. What made me so attractive toward Nic was her ethnic mix of Russian ,Hawaiian and Pinay! When i look at her, i see a eclectic mix of the world singing with that one brilliant voice.<br />
<br />
Like every young girl, you have someone to relate to when growing up. Im no little girl now, but i still appreciate and like to support those who are of mixed races . All just trying to make their stamp in this world. Growing up in Australia, being a tad different made people act weird, i learned early on in life that communities tend to box you into categories..what if you didn't fit in? That was my story at a young age. My step father moved work which meant us moving further in country. I started mid highschool awkwardly in a Aussie school of 220 students, predominately Australian/German kids and five Aboriginal kids. Quite a shock coming from a city school that had a variety of kids from different cultures. It confused me to be taunted often for being the 'Asian', each day id hear mean comments like ' Joeys mum is a mail order bride' or 'Joey ching chong,likes to eat dim sum' but the classic one was one boy running in my class yelling out loud that he wouldn't f*ck a nip ( a cruel slang term for Japanese). Interesting how they thought the Philippines was automatically in China?<br />

This is a piccie of me at 8 years old..hehe<br />

</tbody></table>Totally sucked during that time, but as i grew up i understood why. It was fear and plain ignorance ,i didnt not look like anyone else. Was not Caucasian, nor black or did i look very Asian , I kept being ousted for being the 'Asian'. I laugh at it now especially when i think those kids have never left that town and i did. Because of that experience, i embrace my mixed-ness.<br />
<br />
Lets get back to the knockout Nicole! I was totally blown away by her recent, memorable for life performance at the Hollywood Bowl. Portraying bisexual character of Maureen from the musical Rent. Directed by Mr Awesomeness, Neil Patrick Harris. If only i was in LA! Alas..thank goodness for YouTube.<br />
Nicole does what i can only pretend to do in front of the mirror ( or in front of my boyfriend if mood permits) she seized this part, cheekily conquered it, with much applauded approval all around! I was laughing so much and clapped in front of the computer. Miss Scherzinger effortlessly proved that not only is she a star but can light up the world like a solar tsunami ! Here is where i read it, and watched the video of Nicole singing 'Over the moon'.<br />
GALING!!<br />

Five different people representing different lifestyles & energies are all selected to join Tough Jeansmith family.<br />

</div><div>Proving no matter what you do for a living, what age you are, what you did last summer or what you eat for breakfast..anyone can get it right with Tough. </div><div><br />
</div><div>Its rugged wear made for long term use, not the kinda clothing that frays & changes color after 3 washes. Tough can be Rock & Roll if you want it..or you can style yourself to be the sweety pie that lives next door.</div><div><br />
</div><div>For me, Tough is versatile, fits my travel life & i can play with the rock-street chick look. So here are the photos shot by Xander Angeles featuring Tough Urban Vandals !</div><div><br />

Last July Tough Jeansmith launched their recent selection of urban fab threads to the denim loving society of the Philippines.<br />
<br />
Manolet Dario, Atoy Llave,Luke Jickain,Patty Betita & yours truly are this seasons Toughs Ambassadors. The photo displays in the stores, where magically shot by Xander Angeles and the mini avp of the'behind the scenes' of the Tough photo shoot where presented during launch. ( I cheekily admit to liking the part where Luke Jickain is jumping in a scene like superman about to take off into the sky..hehe very cute) My next post i will add the photos from the shoot!:) Meanwhile here are some of my pics before show start.<br />

Alas i can only wear some of my jackets when i travel to cooler climates or when i watch movies. Especially in Singapore, like a freezer!<br />

I like working with artists that are playful with their colors & open to trying out different styles & are down with the odd suggestion.</span><br />
<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;"><br />
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">I have quite a few on my roster that I'm delighted to be in the chair of. Of course i have staples of Jing,Juan,Leo,Lala,Jigs & Patrick that i know can turn on the magic with a whisk of their feather weight brush wands.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;"><br />
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">Alas i see them when its work oriented. Thank goodness The Jing Monis Salon has the talented Junie Sierra. I met Junie just over a year ago for a mini jewelry shoot and was most impressed by his 'eyebrow' skill. It was always the private test i had in my mind when seated in front of a makeup artist i had not worked with yet. If my eyebrows where perfectly brushed,penciled,arched, or even colored i would be confident that shoot would be set off on the right beat. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHrJzw-WsaD9F5Dlnd9UGeTnGHqR3xjVfQOdIHVuKQ-HNE4ufduuchSgyrAcQvy3TDHAUhPj1Blls-xNw9FOpNubS11yGk1y_M9rpZxKvYqXGkLaymnaOp1Rhyphenhyphen9GwVNFw0Oq-Nbu6g1zgZ/s1600/P1030348.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHrJzw-WsaD9F5Dlnd9UGeTnGHqR3xjVfQOdIHVuKQ-HNE4ufduuchSgyrAcQvy3TDHAUhPj1Blls-xNw9FOpNubS11yGk1y_M9rpZxKvYqXGkLaymnaOp1Rhyphenhyphen9GwVNFw0Oq-Nbu6g1zgZ/s320/P1030348.jpg" /></span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;"><br />

</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">I called Jing to request for Junie's help to prep me for the Tough launch that evening.

I almost forget to snap some shots because I'm so relaxed. Like a fluttery face massage. Junie is precise & a perfectionist when it comes to the eyebrows, shaping checking & even asking if my event was a stage event. Its a different makeup set up style for runway or TV.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxZeMv5PzcgbjnGH2MPqrhhLT2mewzTWCKXEIGUJxbrYsTjan0EPoKtu9JES9eVxiYaTaPbQWvWGnn4QdohyI-X8Ni9jVeIYa1P3zVeIK09U2GUSX7NcKn1piDUz1Q96_ZkSu8biVtrxh0/s1600/P1030353.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxZeMv5PzcgbjnGH2MPqrhhLT2mewzTWCKXEIGUJxbrYsTjan0EPoKtu9JES9eVxiYaTaPbQWvWGnn4QdohyI-X8Ni9jVeIYa1P3zVeIK09U2GUSX7NcKn1piDUz1Q96_ZkSu8biVtrxh0/s320/P1030353.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjp2ddnBs_X4DwWr8Jtdb_VhU0kpNTM2j2G0twG3Us51ka3IW3XNzMgQr8Li8QypWr3cUgfYkZjf8t1iP_36WfEOQva8M_JDj1Xh0DeLeVBOxbrLrDB4MLkTfCmzKdj_pMptUo0lA_1y_Q3/s1600/P1030354.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjp2ddnBs_X4DwWr8Jtdb_VhU0kpNTM2j2G0twG3Us51ka3IW3XNzMgQr8Li8QypWr3cUgfYkZjf8t1iP_36WfEOQva8M_JDj1Xh0DeLeVBOxbrLrDB4MLkTfCmzKdj_pMptUo0lA_1y_Q3/s320/P1030354.jpg" /></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">I'm very happy with my overall look for Tough event & really feel like a Rockista in my Tough leather jacket, jeans & tank.

Siam center is THE place for all things shopping in central Bangkok. Its also very convenient if your hotel is located along the BTS Sky train transit. As simple as spending 20Baht, hop on the train and explore the Ratchaprasong shopping mecca.<br />

Though due to unfortunate political turmoil last June, a few fab shopping malls are under repair, so i was not able to wander around Central world or Zen shopping malls. As you can see in my picture its still going to be awhile.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4zViFRNgk0khBVFFTjyJv_5hIaTdOHWJNtUqQ8dPBpIv5Jy-e7aDDKeEtQf3YV7zsNfAYGJIRC41l0VeTD_7UMLq-reEmsO0cknm7UC9Vrny-poM4LheqjpnGSbcFeIVo4XppyraGflEi/s1600/P1030234.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4zViFRNgk0khBVFFTjyJv_5hIaTdOHWJNtUqQ8dPBpIv5Jy-e7aDDKeEtQf3YV7zsNfAYGJIRC41l0VeTD_7UMLq-reEmsO0cknm7UC9Vrny-poM4LheqjpnGSbcFeIVo4XppyraGflEi/s320/P1030234.jpg" /></a></div>Naturally the high end malls are absolute perfection, like the Siam Paragon & Gaysorn. Anything high end is there, seriously i walked around awestruck. And when everything is in Baht..fools me into believing its so affordable. So tread carefully label lovers. Though when i travel i always hope to stumble upon a unique piece, that doesnt cost me an arm! I favoured Erawann Mall, located also along Sky walk. Siam has scattered shrines to visit, like this one outside of Erwann<br />

That's unless your into that sort of thing. I found a little store selling all kinds of beautiful beads. Im a tart when it comes to turquoise jewellery, but had been wanting a lapiz lazuli necklace for a long time now. My turquoise necklace cost me 800baht & my lapiz choker 700baht. I lost my mind when i saw this amazing necklace with coral,turquoise & lapiz all entwined beautifully, it was just screaming at me to buy her..that one cost me 4000baht.

This place is most definitely chaos on a stick. Reminded me so much of Philippine mall Greenhills but with 7 floors! Alas nothing to my liking, its all things Ive seen before on my travels. Until on my way out..Eureka! A most wonderful store! A must see and must buy! 'Lofty Bamboo'!!<br />

Flew over to Bangkok for four days before flying straight to Singapore for July shoot for HBO. I had not visited Bangkok for several years. Though i have experienced a majority of Thailand's beautiful islands & must see Chang Mai thanks to modeling work over the years.<br />
<br />
I really don't like being a tourist but when in towns you are unfamiliar with, you do get enticed into<br />
'tourist traps'. Especially if your traveling alone. So do ask as much info as you can, especially from friends who have lived there before attempting your solo treks. Also be mindful of your attire when visiting sacred places, a sarong is helpful to cover cleavage or legs.<br />
<br />
Ever since i saw Angkor Wat in Cambodia few years back, i make it a point now to see as much culture as i can, before modern mankind completely ravages them. For years I have always wanted to visited the 'Reclining Golden Buddha of Wat Po'. Grabbed a taxi and honked our way through Bangkok's insane traffic..almost a 100Baht later, im there! Excitement rushes me as i look upon magnificence, such beautiful detail in all the wall murals, & wonderment at how the heck did this all get here.<br />

Walking around this extremely long and relaxed Buddha, i watch all the other tourists and locals pay respects and appreciate what i am viewing. Im so happy to spend a sunny filled two hours walking to every temple & trying my hand at taking self portraits..its kinda hard:p<br />

The next day was Wat Phra Kaeo..The Grand Palace. This time i hired a guide for 400baht to tour and explain some history. I have to admit, with the tour guides broken English & my lack of attention i didn't really get a full history lesson. But he did help with taking photos!<br />

Only $69SGD. I'm very picky with colors, & noticed this had all the precise colors i would use regularly. Ive made the mistake of purchasing products and never ever using them, only because i was drawn to a vibrant color like Scream at me Yellow or Out of site Orange. Never again. Purple packaging you know i love! Worth every cent!</span>PowertothePinayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04291105702826768824noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7847874059438086605.post-45968625652206688792010-07-06T21:23:00.000-07:002010-07-08T00:53:42.660-07:00Marc Jacobs Lola ring is love!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQJs0ODARZ2PHfisNuyfMVe2cQlke8g_UAhx7cXFsNMw6j5bWLUl8FLDZ5FqTeFeNYDDV49YjrROr0ZmQnnJzPVLempcbyKQzTniZaQkOlcQ8AktT3PMI6dg_vgA-vLi94iU8eblqnuWZq/s1600/34272_405821065043_658360043_4903356_2277469_n.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5491373129305764018" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQJs0ODARZ2PHfisNuyfMVe2cQlke8g_UAhx7cXFsNMw6j5bWLUl8FLDZ5FqTeFeNYDDV49YjrROr0ZmQnnJzPVLempcbyKQzTniZaQkOlcQ8AktT3PMI6dg_vgA-vLi94iU8eblqnuWZq/s320/34272_405821065043_658360043_4903356_2277469_n.jpg" style="cursor: hand; cursor: pointer; display: block; height: 240px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 320px;" /></a><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #000099;">I appreciate so many things when i travel, be it an event with out of this world stage design or just something so adorable found in a store or flea market. I do love luxury brands like most fashionistas, but i do not have the bucks to lay out just like that. So when i find beautiful pieces that are also affordable, i just love the feeling. Especially if its a piece that is unique.</span></span><br />
