Volkswagen XL1 Concept

The Volkswagen XL1 Concept is the car of the future. It looks futuristic enough, with its lack of a rear view mirror and sleeky design, complete with hidden rear wheels.

Tomorrow will be the first anniversary of Lee McQueen's tragic passing. Fashion house Alexander McQueen's driving force was a visionary and his bold designs drew the likes of Hollywood and beyond.

Part of every girl's Teenage Dream is to always have a great manicure. Having pretty fingers makes us feel like Fireworks and although we might be stuck at work, one glance at our nails and it's almost like we are California Girls Waking Up in Vegas.

DT Asia Helps Asia Celebrate Aura With A Magical Launch


History was made at Thursday’s grand launch of “Aura by Swarovski, as DT Communications Asia Pacific (DT Asia) successfully organized a media event and cocktail party to celebrate the perfume’s official premiere in the region. The occasion featured a never-before-seen light show and the collection was brilliantly showcased with cutting-edge special effects in a dramatic unveiling ceremony.

“Aura by Swarovski” marks Clarins Fragrance Group and Swarovski’s first fragrance collaboration, and the two European brands, along with DT Asia, pulled out all the stops with a star-studded launch event attended by Mr. Christian Courtin-Clarins, Chairman of Clarins Group Supervisory Board.

The impressive highlight was the fantastic light show, beamed from
the venue to the building across the crowded Queensway street. The first of its kind in Asia, the spectacle of light featured the “Aura by Swarovski” video commercial, and captivated guests in a monumental gesture announcing the fragrance’s arrival in Asia’s fashion capital. This bold and innovative display reinforced the larger than life beauty and magic of the fragrance, as well as the tenacity of DT Asia’s production team.

Hundreds of guests, including more than 200 local and regional media from China, India, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and The Philippines, were also in attendance for the epic unveiling ceremony. The collection was revealed in a glorious fashion, with state-of-the-art special effects being employed. When the time came for the unveil, the atmosphere was intensified with lights descending on the stage, perfectly synchronized with smoke and music as guests were treated to the perfume line’s first appearance in the region.

In addition, the Swarovski dress, designed by the late, great Lee McQueen of the fashion house Alexander McQueen, enthralled fashion lovers with its unparalleled beauty and intricacy. Beauty enthusiasts were not left out, as they enjoyed the entire “Aura by Swarovski” collection, which was elegantly displayed on several fragrance bars strategically placed around the venue.

The sheer beauty of the venue also had party-goers singing non-stop praises. The perfect location to announce the Aura, the venue's unique architecture of majestic glass walls and waves-inspired ceiling played the perfect backdrop for the unveiling, artistically mirroring the inspiration for the perfume: pure light.  The venue was drenched in a brilliant pink light that bounced off the building’s curves into an enchanting dance, magically transforming the location into the mystical World of Swarovski.

General Manager of DT Asia, Ms. Alice Fok, said: “Months of hard work and dedication from Clarins Fragrance Group, Swarovski and the DT Asia team made this launch an incredible success. We are honoured that our distinguished guests had a fabulous time and we feel motivated to tackle similar challenges in the future.”

GQ "Rock The Suit”

It's not everyday that Andrew and Ben from MGMT suit up, but when they do work the snappy dressing, the duo clean up very very well.

GQ gathered some of the best and up-coming musicians now and ever. The National, The Walkmen, The Drums and the aforementioned MGMT all appear in GQ's "Rock the Suit", looking super duper dapper. Also in the spread, legendary legend (what other word is there?) David Byrne was in the company of two gorgeous ladies, posing with Santigold and St.Vincent for the magazine.

We Love: Karla's Closet

Thanks to Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, vintage clothing and accessories have seen a resurgence, and everything second-hand became wardrobe gems. Girls would raid their mothers' closets and flock to Salvation Armys and Goodwills for cheap and chic finds.

But one problem with this trend is that it's difficult to discern between fashionable and outdated. The key reminder here is: just because it's old, doesn't mean it's vintage.

One girl who gets it right all the time is Karla, who runs the blog aptly named Karla's Closet. Most of what she wears is second-hand or vintage, but she's always meticulous in putting together her outfits. Vintage dresses are complemented with in-season Prada heels, or sunglasses with modern shapes. She never looks like a blast from the past, but always like a worthy homage to fashion predecessors. And she is extra careful with the used clothing she selects; with a strict eye for quality and detail, the girl will never be caught dead in drab hand-me-downs.
