Philipp Rösler, new German Health Minister, with wife Wiebke

Congratulations to Philipp Rösler, announced as Health minister for Angela Merkel’s new government in Germany.

Philipp was born in Vietnam and adopted as a baby by German parents. This is a picture of Philipp and his wife Wiebke taken from the article “Bei Berlin winkt Rösler ab” at Focus.de (about his recent success, in German, English word salad by Google translate here). What a beautiful couple he and Wiebke are!

I don’t want to say too much about this news item. I am still in shock. How lucky the Germans are… and we got Chua Soi Lek!

Landscape photo of the year 2009

Just would like to share with you all some wonderful pictures which  I found in BBC website. There are some pictures there from the Landscape photo of the year 2009. Sometimes pictures do make me have peace of mind or imagine a fantasy world! My favourite is this one:

bbc_landscapephoto2009

This is Sunrise over the Old Man of Storr, Isle of Skye, Scotland. It won the landscape photo of the year 2009.

The landscape of these pictures are fascinating and by looking  at the surrounding of natural environment, just amazing!

That inspires me to have a good camera so that I can capture all the fantastic memory when  I look back one day.

You can view the full pictures gallery here.

London Fashion Weeks Some Highlights Sept 2009

London Fashion show 2009The London Fashion Week officially opened by London Mayor Boris Johnson in London Fashion Show 2009conjunction with its 25th anniversary. There are some highlights in the fashion show here. First of all,  a fashion designer called Mark Fast using normal  size (12 to 14) models wearing his creations in the showcase instead of zero size model.  Mark Fast wants women to know that not only zero size women can wear his collection, curvier women can look good in them too.

Supermodel Naomi Campbell was modeling in the show here. She has chosen three different outfits,  she only wears what she likes. The audience screamed and clapped hands when  she was on the stage. Wow, still a supermodel even though her age is nearly 40. Daniella Helayel the fashion designer said: “Naomi is the pure hurricane, she’s the best walker on the catwalk, she’s the sunshine after the storm.

LFS 2009 Naomi Campbell

London Fashion Show focussed on bras. Louise Goldin the young designer was inspired by the Madonna rocket cone and she created ‘ twin peaks’ in pastel gold and silver lamé, bristling with Swarovski crystals. Look at these pictures, are they very familiar? I did mention in one of my articles here about the Madonna legendary ‘ rocket cone bra’ designed by Jean Paul Gaultier.

LFS 2009 Cone Bra Fashion

These are my favourite fashion designs in this London Fashion show. The Telegraph.co called this architectural designed which I think very unique among all the collection. What do you think after watching some highlights of the show?

Christian Lacroix Last Fashion Show

What attracts me about Christian Lacroix (see how to pronounce Christian Lacroix) collections is the colourful fashion design. I love a life full of colours. I found this picture of Tilda Swinton wearing a Christian Lacroix dress during the Cesar Ceremony Awards 2009. This is called “rainbow dress” apparently, slightly striking and eye catching. Don’t you think so?christianlacroixtildaswinton2

christianlacroixkatieholmesUnfortunately, Christian Lacroix filed for bankruptcy because of the economic downturn recently. This is his last fashion show haute couture 2009-2010. During the last show, there was a banner written “Christian Lacroix forever” and the audience stood up to honour him at the end of the show. The financial was so tight for Christian Lacroix to make this fashion show happen, however most of it was sponsored or given free. The catwalk stage was given free of charge, the makeup artists and hairdressers had to cut their fees, even the backstage buffet cafe was sponsored for the foods and drinks. Apparently, only the 12 models were paid.christianlacroixshoesdesign

Look at Christian Lacroix profile here of how he became so successful in his career for his dramatic and glamorous fashion design. His collections loved by many celebrities such as Katie Holmes, Catherine Zeta Jones, Ivana Trump, Uma Thurman, Julianne Moore. I fancy one of his collection which is wore by Katie Holmes in the picture with Tom Cruise. I also adore this picture of a pair of  shoes he designed.

I wonder if the legendary Christian Lacroix is going to come back to the fashion arena again or is he gone forever? Let’s wait and see O.K!

How To Pronounce Christian Lacroix

Sometimes I was wondering how to pronounce Christian Lacroix so I did some survey. In my next article there will be his news and more fashion shows. Here I’ve two people how to pronounce it. The first is an interview with an American TV presenter – see how they pronounce in this video. I don’t think that sounds quite right.

See what I mean? Does she say LER KRAW? Second video is about Christian Lacroix perfume advertisement in France. Very sentimental and elegant video in which you can hear it very clearly – more like LA KRRRRWA! I like his perfume designed, will go to have a look for my next shopping trip!

Here’s a sound file taken from the video, save it on your phone and listen, just in case you have to say it sometime!

How to choose a condom

Durex Quality condoms

Durex Quality condoms

Sometimes Lolyco customers ask for advice in choosing a condom. Actually customers ask for advice about all sorts of things. It’s easier with skin care products – they say “I have oily /dry / combination skin” or “I want to get rid of my wrinkles / black spots”.

It’s more difficult with condoms. So far, no customer has said “I am hung like a bull / orangutan / cicak” and neither have they said “I want to last all night / feel nothing / keep the rain off my lunch”. They do occasionally ask, but there’s not much information offered on which to offer advice! It has been difficult knowing what to say, apart from “try and see”.

The Durex condoms Lolyco stock are in boxes of 12. “Try and see” can quickly become expensive, and if you try the first of 12 and find it’s not really for you, that’s 11 creative uses you have to think of for the remainder.

Lolyco has added a ‘pick and mix’ individual condom item to its catalogue. Now if you want to try a range of different Durex condoms, you can choose exactly which ones you want, and exactly how many of each kind. Just add the total number of Durex condoms you want to your shopping basket. After you’ve gone through the checkout, drop Lolyco a note to say exactly what kinds of condoms you want.

Lolyco Durex condom mix selector

Lolyco Durex condom mix selector

Example: If you want 1 Extra Safe, 3 Pleasuremax and 2 Close Fit and 2 Together, just add 8 Mixed Durex condoms to your basket. You can use the Lolyco ‘Contact Us’ form to let us know the breakdown: just write something like:

“Hi Lolyco, just placed an order for 8 Mixed Durex condoms. I want 1 x Extra Safe, 2 x Close Fit, 3 x PleasureMax and 2 x Together. TQ!”

And that’s it! Hopefully that will help anybody wondering which is the best condom for them. No need to get the ruler out any more – happy testing!

Happy Mother’s Day Wherever She Is!

Today is a Mother’s Day so first of all, I would like to wish to all mothers a “Happy Mother’s Day”. To those who are celebrating, treat your mother in a very special way. How do you treat your mother? I reckon there will be a lot of ideas such as a nice dinner, a perfect gift, a special vacation, a big bouquet of flowers,  a big ang pow – lots of options!

I’ve never have a chance to celebrate my mother’s day, what a pity! My mother has  passed away for more than ten years now, sometimes just would like to know where exactly she is ? Why doesn’t she give me a chance to say “Happy Mother’s Day” to her!

Never  thought of writting a blog today but like everybody else I would like to say “Happy Mother’s Day” to my own mother! Thinking of may be I’ve forgotten my mother and a bit vague of impression of my mother now because she is not exist in this world for so long but again I’ve not forgotten her because she is still my “MOTHER”. Since today is a Mother’s Day, all the newspaper mentioned it, all the radio and TV station have special program for Mother’s Day, a lot of bloggers made an appreciation to their mothers, I would like to take this opportunity to wish my mother “HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY” wherever she is! I’m sure my mother will receive my message!
