Cheryl Cole

Every year I’m fascinated and excited want to find out:  who is the most beautiful women in the world? Who is the best dressed woman? Recently, there was a poll conducted by The Style Network, voted Cheryl Cole as the Best Dressed woman of 2009 and style icon of the year.

These are my personal favourite pictures of Cheryl Cole.  She is indeed gorgeous and stylish. I like her hairstyle and the proportions of her figure  makes her look so stunning whatever she wears. No wonder she would be able to beat Kate Moss and Victoria Beckham to grab this year title! I reckon she could grab the most sexiest icon of the year as well, what do you think by judging of these few pictures?

Cheryl Cole

There were about 3000 women took part in this poll, the survey asked who is the most stylish icon age range between 25 to 30. I read somewhere that her success is thanks to her shopping habit and she dresses up well all the time. On top of that, she is married to a rich and famous  Chelsea football player Ashley Cole which helps her fame as well.

Institut Esthederm logo (GIF)

Jess wanted some pictures with the Institut Esthederm logo in them, but the only versions I could find online were very small, so resizing them made them look horrible. She had a version on a disk too, courtesy of a trip to Esthecosme, her supplier. It was the old black-on-white version of the logo, and in an EPS (Encapsulated Post Script) file. Even though it was a huge (over 300kB!) file, it still had jagged edges!

I’d recently done a few articles about Inkscape, the drawing program, for isono.my, so I thought I’d test my new-found skills on the Institut Esthederm logo. I’m not a graphic designer, so I may not have gone about it quite right. It was easy enough, with perhaps the only tricky bit the kerning (spacing between characters) of the text. It’s very easy to change the kerning of text in Inkscape, once you know how – it’s not obvious!

Reconstructed Institut Esthederm logo, large version (PNG)

Before you use this logo in any of your own work, please note that it isn’t Institut Esthederm’s logo, it’s Lolyco’s reconstruction of it. It does look like their logo (okay, so the first ‘I’ and the last ‘T’ in the curved INSTITUT at top are not quite rotated as much as the original), but if you really wanted to use Institut Esthederm’s logo in your own documents, we strongly recommend asking Institut Esthederm for a better, official version. I could have done that, but patience is not a virtue I possess.

If you want a resizable (to any size) version that you can use with Inkscape (so you can fix the rotation on the ‘I’ and the ‘T’!), Institut Esthederm logo, SVG format, zipped.

Esthederm starter kits at lolyco.com

For beginners to use a new product, it  is very important to understand the basic of skin water protection. For instance, a plant that is too dry or doesn’t have enough water, won’t absorb minerals or nutrients. Similar with our skin without enough water, it will become tighter, wrinkles appear, there’ll be a loss of elasticity, black spots appear and etc. Esthederm Cellular Water is the first and only replica of the skin’s water. It can carry cellular water into deeper layers of the skin.

Esthederm products are easy to use. For dry skin, you use Hydra System, for oily skin you use Pure System and for Sensitive skin you use Sensi System. You can mix and match depending on your skin condition. For example acne skin, after it clears up, you can change to Sensi system and then treat as normal skin. Besides this basic skin care, there is an intensive ‘Molecular Care’ range for emergency treatment of serious skin problem such as severe dehydration, severe acne and hyper sensitivity. Use it at night time to get optimum results.

The reason why all the Esthederm starter kit products concern about water level of the skin is that water level is fundamental to the absorption of nutrients. For more details, you can browse www.esthederm.com for more expert opinion and learn more about why it stands out from other cosmetics brand.

You can see the Jean Paul Gaultier Haute Couture Summer 2008 for his collection in here. This time a mermaid is wearing the cone bra.

I was wandering if I was wearing the Cone Bra on the street, will people stare at me?  I don’t mind if I would be able to wear it on a fashion show but not in the high street!

Hello magazine has a great Jean Paul Gaultier profile. He was so obsessed with fashion design in the early days. I would say if somebody is obsessed and persistent in their goal, usually they will be successful, don’t you think so?

Jean Paul Gaultier said that beauty can be universal. The model’s name is “Velvet” from New York, USA. Some bloggers say Jean Paul Gaultier did this as a reaction, to make a mockery of the ban on super-skinny models. Many have commented that if he really wanted to show beauty is universal, he should have used some average sized women.

Whatever the truth is, there are plenty of opinions! So what do you think? Was Gaultier telling women “you’re all beautiful, no matter what size”? Or was he saying “I can’t use skinny models? Well, cop this!”.

I’d love to know what you think!

Here’s an audio clip of “Jean Paul Gaultier”:

From this Jean Paul Gaultier ‘Classique’ video:

The music is “Nessun Dorma” from the opera “Turandot” by Puccini

This is another audio clip of someone saying “Jean Paul Gaultier”:

From this ‘le male’ (the man) video:

The music is “Casta Diva” from Bellini’s “Norma”. While I was researching on YouTube, I found this amazing video of the famous opera diva Maria Callas singing Casta Diva. What a voice – I had to include it!
