Peta's Fashionable Sea Kittens

What are Sea Kittens? For one of their campaign against animal violence last year, PETA launched their Sea Kitten campaign. Instead of using the term "fish", they use Sea Kittens. The grouped claimed that fish are smart and they have feelings too, just like dogs and cats.

So to shoo away my sleepiness feeling, I created my own sea kittens. In PETA's website, you can choose the fish type of your sea kitten and you can also adorn them with headgears and other accessories. They’re so fashionably cute. You too can have your own sea kitten!

Lady Gaga's Controversial Bubble Dress

The very first thing that I noticed about Lady Gaga, was her out-of-this-world fashion statement. Of all those bold outfits, her bubble dress made a loud noise in the fashion gossip columns. The bubble dress she wore on her Fame Ball tour was said to be a replica from Hussein Chalayan's Spring 2007 Runway collection.

Amazing and Amusing Looks of Costume Institute Gala 2009

Last Monday, one of the most awaited fashion events of the year took place at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art. The Costume Institute Gala 2009, named as “The Model as Muse: Embodying Fashion”, was hosted by Kate Moss and Marc Jacobs.

Celebrities, models and fashion designers graced the red carpet of the event wearing their best model-looking dresses. I am not surprised to see fashion perfect gowns as well as weird-looking outfits. In every occasion, one can be either fashionable or out-fashioned. Personally every time I stumbled upon blog posts regarding fashion events, I would go directly to the Best-Dressed and the Worst-Dressed links of the site. For this blog, I would classify them as Amazing and Amusing looks.

Check out the gallery I have prepared for you. I would like to thank the fashion sites who uploaded these photos. Even though we did not attend the party in person, at least we can be amazed and amused with the wild creations and daring outfits of the party’s attendees.

The sun is beaming brightly. It produces a different tingling heat. Can you feel it too? Well, here the Philippines, it's definitely summer time and I am so excited with this season. It means longer day, tanner skin, tons of sun block lotion or tanning oil, glasses of refreshing smoothies and drinks, time to play around and most of all having fun in a beach.

But before we head outdoors and bask on the heat of the sun let's check our bags if we got the summer must-haves such as swimwear.

There are lots of available swimwear but we should not buy impulsively. Keep in mind that they are not just for swimming, but for posing as well.

LG and Prada must have impressed the eyes of every fashionista with this most-talked about innovation.

1. It’s simple yet elegant. LG-KF900 presents a fashionable cell phone with an uncompromising design. LG and Prada opted to retain its predecessor’s minimalist look with a set of sliding keys that adds up sophistication and elegance.

4. It’s a revolutionized fashion accessory. The phone was reinvented along with the “PRADA Link” (Model: LG-LBA-T950), a digital timepiece with a Bluetooth device. With it, every user can remotely monitor phone calls as well as read full SMS text messages by just glancing on their risk, without fishing the phone from a bag or pocket.
