Chanel Cruise 2013-14 Collection Launched In Singapore

Hi Huneybees,

Last weekend, Singapore was the place to be at. The red dot on the map has made a record again!

With the Godfather of fashion - KARL LAGERFELD was in town together with the showcase of Chanel Cruise 2013-14 collection, it was the place to be at and to be seen! 

The Cruise or Resort collection (collection croisière, in French) also commonly known as "Pre-Spring/Summer," features designs for holidays or travel, and is an inter-season line of ready-to-wear clothing produced in addition to the recurrent twice-yearly seasonal collections - Spring/Summer and Fall/Winter - heralded at the fashion shows in New York, London, Paris and Milan. Source: Wikipedia

Held at the Loewen Cluster, it was a star-studded night with appearances by American actress DAKOTA FANNING, ANDRÉ LEON TALLY, International style icon CARINE ROITFELD, Chinese star ZHOU XUN, Super Junior singer CHOI SI WON with South Korean actress JUNG RYEO WON, Taiwanese actress GWEI LUN-MEI, as well as local celebrities DICK LEE, ZOE TAY, KIT CHAN and FANN WONG.

The French luxury label also flew in models especially for the show, with several of them also starring in Lagerfeld's short film and these include Lindsey Wixon, Stella Tennant, Saskia de Brauw, Shu Pei Qin, Joan Smalls, Du Juan, Ming Xi, Cara Delevingne and Aymeline Valade.

Singapore was chosen as "it is the ultimate cruise destination, it is summer all year round. The original idea of “going on a cruise” stems from the desire to escape cold winters for a warmer climate and to enjoy an exotic place in the sun" --- Chanel

Kicking off the show were designs inspired by cricket, carrying the sport's predominantly white dress code and propped with knee-guards and bats. That was well fitted into the location too...

Trademarks of Chanel's black and white was dominant alongside navy blue, infused with sequins and pleats as well as some peek-a-boo for the slight sexiness.

With pieces for a more casual setting for the Victoria Beckham moment from the private jet to the beach and something more elegant and classic for the evening, you are definitely set for a cruise trip of funfilled vacation that can bring you to every single event without fret.

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 premiered in USA!!!

Hi Huneybees,

OMG!!! The world first premiere of  The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 has just taken place on 12th November in Los Angeles, California.

Although it's less than 2 weeks away to be screened in our cinema, on 22th November, island-wide, I am starting to become restless...

Anyway I have decided to put up some photos from the Premiere red carpet (courtesy of Google Image Search) for my dear readers who share my Twilight craze!

[Movie Review] Fright Night

Hi Huneybees,

Credits: http://www.traileraddict.com/poster/fright-night-2011/5

Other than being at different events these few days, I was also at some movie premieres. Today, I wana talk about Fright Night! I know it's been on screen for awhile, but I know some of you have yet to watch. You can read about the synopsis and watch the trailer here.

I was there at the movie mainly for Colin Farrell. WHAT A HOTTIE! Been loving him since the day he acted as Bullseye in The Daredevil movie. And this time round, he is acting as a vampire! Immediately Edward Cullen came into my mind!

I would call this movie a thriller with little gore, there are times that got me jumping off my seat, screaming "WTF!", but mostly were predictable. Not sure is it because I've watched so many this kind of movie, I was in fact, laughing and smiling more, than getting afraid.

Why laugh? Coz there were cheesy times, and there was also times when Mirai (who sat next to me) was covering her eyes and that got me tickled pink. So guys, get the hint, bring a girl to the movie!

I wouldn't say the movie's got the best plot. Come on, hottie moves into your neighbour-hood, looking pale and devilish, wouldn't you realize something if wrong?

However, there are some concepts that was fresh, like the whole vampire image. I was going to the movies thinking that it's the same coloured contacts and 2 side fangs for the whole vampire look, but this movie proved not so. Don't go thinking all vampires are Twilight-ly pretty, vampires are still monsters afterall!

In fact, the picture I did using the FB app, would be a close image of what the vampires look like in the movie.

Ok! Enough of the ugliness. One other thing I was loving, was definitely the radiance of the female lead, Imogen Poots. She reminded me of Kate Winslet, Scarlett Johansson and Dakota Fanning.

A little story about her that I got from Wikipedia:

Imogen Gay Poots (born 5 June 1989) is an English actress, best known for playing Tammy in the 2007 film 28 Weeks Later, Prue Sorenson in the 2010 remake of the controversial TV drama Bouquet of Barbed Wire and as Jean Ross in the BBC's Christopher and His Kind.

She was born in Hammersmith, London, England, the daughter of Fiona (née Goodall) and Trevor Poots, a TV producer. She attended the independent and selective Bute House Preparatory School for Girls in Brook Green, Queen's Gate School for Girls and London's Latymer Upper School, where she attained 3 A grades at A-Level.  (Ain't she a clever girl?!) She is a member of theYoung Blood Theatre Company.

She works as a model for Select Model Management and her first movie credit was as Young Valerie in the 2006 film V for Vendatta. Poots has also appeared in 2004 episode of Casualty, in Matt Day's short film, Wish and in the 2007 TV movie Miss Austen Regrets.

I would rate the movie a 3 out of 5 popcorns, given the fact that there are so much eye candy.

Guys who are trying to impress a girl, been trying to grab a hug, act hero, do bring your girls to this movie!

I shall leave you guys with some photos that I took after watching the movie that day. It was fun to be out with my friends. Blogging is fun and you can make new friends!

Love how we fill up rows in cinemas. Special thanks to Steven to helping us take this photo.

And how can I miss a chance with Collin Farrell? Even though is just his head....

Muahz,

Hi Huneybees,

This month's cover features Dakota Fanning. She's such a darling ~

Yipee! I'm on on magazine again! And this time with a dream fulfilled. I plucked up my courage and went for a lingerie photo shoot for Cleo Magazine Singapore. The shoot was to inspired girls of all sizes to show confidence in their body, not to be shy and hide.

This is the spread for the smaller size girls. Amongst them is Miyo and Janice.

I went with Miyo and met up with Janice, who was the one who hooked us up to this photoshoot. They were gorgeous babes, superb bodies and mine was "shy" next to them. But the wonderful people of Cleo encouraged me and boy, I loved the camera after a few snaps of pictures, I couldn't stop! LOL!

Here's the results.....

And this is me!!!

I do have my own flaws, I'm a plus size, but I have learnt to accept it and embrace my wonderful curves. Just have more confidence, smile and the world will smile back at ya!

So here's some snapshots that we took "backstage". Go hurry grab your copy of Cleo (October Issue) now!

Woke up super early for the shoot. No makeup on, but had my XL contact lens on. :)
