Cheap vs. Chic

TFD-Ok, what would an entire month be without the requisite compilation of fashion mags to confirm and validate the trends that have hit the runways? When it comes to local mags, I just like to look at the pictures more than anything. I hardly read the articles but I do like looking at the product shots and features. Well, TFM and I are once again ready to dish out our opinions on this. Grain of salt people, we're just having fun here. =)

Ok, so I saw the August issue of Preview, and although the subject has been used a gazillion times over (how fab to be the daughter of a Mega star, vero?), I was nevertheless intrigued. She was wearing tights! I found it ironic that the main feature of this issue is "dressing for your shape." Go figure.

I have to admit, the photography is amazing, Marc Nicdao really has it going on. But I don't know, for some reason, KC reminded me of that Jessica Simspon MV where she was in roller blades and had her hair all done up.








TFM: I like K.C., don't get me wrong but whoever styled her for this fashion editorial should be given a good knock on the head. Honey, leggings are not for everyone! Instead of making K.C. look like Madonna or Jessica Simpson, you made her look like Gabby in drag! A great stylist always has to take into consideration the body type of his/her model. Lucky for you, Marc Nicdao was the photographer for this shoot. Otherwise, this could have looked like a cheap poster ad campaign for GAY PRIDE week!

TFD-There is, one woman whom I think can wear absolutely anything. Her physique is perfection and she always looks so glamorous and classy.

Miriam Quiambao




TFM: I agree TFD, Miriam can really pull-off just about anything. I've seen her recently on T.V. and some of her choices are really spot-on.

We're glad that you got a good laugh out of that one. Anyway, we were merely commenting on how Miriam looks good in her style choices. She certainly has the physique for it. Beyond fashion, what she does is irrelevant to us.

dude miriam's personal style is whack. the published images you see are put together by a stylist.

everytime chick goes AWOL it totally straddles the line bet cheap whore and drag queen.

theres no style icon here. only a skinny chick with some trivial beauty pageant history.

Ok anonymous, you've expressed your opinion. There's no need to be hostile.

sure! your truth, your opinion. We get that. There's no one saying you should change your mind and accept our truth. You are free to say what you want about the issue.

But we draw the line on personal attacks. The words used by ms. anonymous does not leave argument about whether she was being hostile or antagonistic to the hosts of this blog. SHE WAS. We were called names that I don't wish to repeat.

Civilized people don't come to your home and spit on you.
