Introducing . . .

WARNING: Little charming alert!

I NEED to introduce the adorable baby Zimraan. He's two now, but he speaks and acts like an 4-year-old. Love him. Can't get enough of him.

AS I AM

This afternoon suddenly the name Alicia Keys popped out from my head. I remember her show back then in December here in Brisbane. It was so awesome! Personally, I didn't expect her show would be that great. Her vocal performance was so amazing, plus her backing vocals and the band, of course. The stage set was not that great, but in total it was really
A-W-E-S-O-M-E!


One of her backing vocals and the only male singer on the stage caught my eyes and ears. His voice was really amazing! FYI, Miss Keys introduced her backing vocals one-by-one after letting them to sing first. Then she introduced him as Jermaine Paul. That was when I realized that he was the one that sings with her in a tribute song for Luther Vandross (If This World Were Mine). He also featured in her single 'Diary'. He actually can sing as a singer himself. I was really amazed by his voice because I didn't expect a backing vocal would be that great! If he is going to make an album I will definitely buy it! Gifted voice.


Anyways, about Alicia's show, I was kinda disappointed 'cause she didn't sing her song 'Tell You Something (Nana's Reprise)'. I was so crazy about that song. It somehow makes my heart peaceful when I listen to it. I love it. By the way, I went to her concert with Amik , Namiel, and Nowo. We had a great time.

Fall 2009 Ready-to-wear

It's a wrap for the Fall 2009 Ready-to-wear Fashion Weeks. It is exciting to look at those clothes paraded in New York, London, Milan, and Paris. Although I couldn't be there (oh I wish I can) to watch those shows, I always check the progress for each show. Nah, it's not every show, but only the designers that I like. Though it's not as exciting as watching the Spring Ready-to-wear collection, it's kind of sad if you miss it.

House of Holland

Chloé

Marc by Marc Jacobs

Marc Jacobs

Stella McCartney

Tibi

House of Holland's will always be interesting to watch since there's always Agyness Deyn in his show. Do you remember the black shirt/dress that she paraded on the show and wore it until the after party was the one that M.I.A. had picked for her Grammy's show. She is just a trendsetter. Anyways, his show was about stripes and playing with colors. That's genious.

Chloé's was fantastic, because you can wear it in the day without feeling uncomfortable, I think.

Marc Jacobs' collection was always adorable. Either his Marc Jacobs or Marc by Marc Jacobs will always be my favorite. Period.

Stella McCartney was unpredictable. I was hoping she will play with colors, but her collection was mainly gre, black, and white. But, the design was so amazing. I love it! Hers was all about puff sleves and of course her infamous PVC boots.

The next is Tibi. I've never pay any of my attention in this lining before, but seeing its collection in this year's fall collection was so amazing. It's definitely one of my favorites! They are all so cute. I can imagine myself wearing those clothes everyday. It was just goergeous. Ooh how I want to grab those clothes!

Yoga with Yogi Cameron Alborzian

Ooh, this is my first blog post. I'm so excited! I hope anyone who reads it woulnd't find it boring, and hopefully feel the contrary and find the information is very useful.

I was always interested in yoga. I did a few months of practicing yoga earlier during college. It was fun, especially when you do it with a couple of your mom's friends. It made you feel SUPERB! It was because you can do better than them. Then they will adore you because you can do anything with the movements (laugh laugh).

Anyways, several months ago when I was reading my lovely dailymail.co.uk, I found an interesting article about Cameron Alborzian. He is an ex-model turned yoga guru. Some sources said that he was featured in one of Madonna's video.

After reading that article I tried to search everything about him. Turns out you can ask him come to your house, of course to educate you to know the benefits of yoga. The price wouldn't be cheap though, since it can go up to £20,000 a week. Furthermore, I found a couple of his videos in youtube. There are some movements that I have had practiced several times back then, such as this 10 minutes yogic practice. You will find this a little bit difficult. But, with a lot of practice it will help you to get fit and maybe at some point help you to be slimmer, because it did happen to me. Remember, slimmer does not mean losing weight.

Isn't he wonderful (PS: look at those abs)? He's an Indian decent, that's why I guess he's realy into yoga. So I was thinking, why I hadn't ever in my life interested in Pencak Silat, for example, as one of Indonesian traditional martial arts, nor did I have interested in learning to make Jamu (Indonesian traditional medicine drink). Hmm what a pity I guess. That makes me think ...
