The Fighter

The Olympic spirit is a competitive spirit, and a lot of athletes are trying their best to win medals for their country. It's very easy to get discouraged at some point in your struggle to win but the most important thing is to keep fighting. I just heard The Fighter by Gym Class Heroes and Ryan Teddar and I'm really digging it. It is really inspiring so I decided to share it with you.The FighterBertrand Gille of France jumps to shoot during the men's Handball preliminaries

Outfit Inspired by South Korea's Olympic Ge

South Korea Olympic UniformsWow!!!! I am absolutely impressed by South Korea's Olympic Gear. It is so chic and yet so sporty. Apparently I'm not the only one that thinks so since Time Magazine has also listed it as one of the best uniforms in this year's Olympics. Kudos to the designer. I decided to do my own impression of their outfit: Hope you like.

Misbranding


My home economics teacher says "Misbranding is the act of labeling a product falsely".  Sometimes, we put the wrong labels on people. We just look at the surface and immediately tag the person with a label we consider appropriate. At times we might be on track with our labels and at other times we get it wrong. I guess that's why the saying don't judge a book by its cover is sometimes right. Our sights can be blurry and we might not see certain people for who they really are.
What propelled this? you think. The Kristen Stewart/ Rupert Sanders scandal. I really hope it's a rumor and that we haven't tagged her wrongly.

Drizzy Ride

*Singing* oh oh oh sometimes I get a good feeling. This happens 99.7% of the time when I listen to Drake. Yup, I'm on that Drizzy Ride. You can't help but connect when you listen to him. So, my Drake Song for today is "Unforgettable". He features Young Jeezy in this track. In this song, he hopes he'll be unforgettable to a girl, that he likes, who is apart from him and other girls that hurt him at one point. Listen and get some of my good feeling.
P.S: Some say Drake is too emotional in his songs. But hey what is music without emotions?

I looove shoes. Pumps, wedges, flats, sandals, platforms, converses, vans and so on; all have a place in my heart. So after watching a re-run of one of my favorite fashion shows, Fashion Police, I decided to write an article on shoes. Shoes are one of the best accessories you can add to any cloth.


Melanie Fiona has got a powerful voice. Anybody whose relationship is on the rocks will be able to connect with this song. Melanie Fiona - 4am

Prepare to Meet Your Doom

I know it's typical cartoon-talk but hey I love cartoons. Usually it's the villain that says this. Just before the villain is defeated (after all the evil things he/she must have done), he/she says this assuming he is going to be the victor in the final battle. then "Wham" he/she is defeated/ finished/ finis/ finito.
Point: Karma does exist. What goes around will surely come around.

Blazers are one of my favorite fashion items. They can look formal or casual. it just depends on how you combine them. Here are a few beautiful ones.

Looking past the blocks

It's funny how certain people allow past deeds (which are totally disconnected from the matter at hand) cloud their judgement. I mean, be objective! Some of you are wondering what i'm referring to? Well this has got to do with Dbanj's new song Oyato. If you ask me, this is a really good song: the message, the beat, the lyrics, the melody are all on point. and yet some people are determined to hate the song all because of his split with Donjazzy. How is this related to the quality of the song? Look past the blocks and you'll see that you are missing out on a totally groove-able song. Dbanj - Oyato
