i was in bangkok's siam square getting my hair done, when this gorgeous young thing came walking in. i looked like shit, wrapped up like a friggin chinese bun while he looked amazingly cute next to me. unfortunately i was alone when i saw him, because yos and the rest were out getting lunch. but they came back in and the first thing i did was to grab yos by her hands and tell her to fucking look to the right. she did and her eyes went wide opened. that's how good he looked baby. we tried in our every might to get a good picture of him, but this was the best. we conversed in chinese so the locals wouldnt understand us, discussing every possible way to get his picture. in this picture he had a pony tail tied up his front, but he still manages to look cute. it's not everyday you find someone who can pull such a thing off. he's a superstar if you didn't know, a thai singer, apparently. who cares, to me, he's cute, that's all i need to know.

on a side note, everyone should go to bangkok just because the city's amazing. you can find anything, and everything at ridiculously cheap prices. dresses are 5 bucks, if you buy it at wholesaler prices, and footwear ranges from 8 sgd- 15 sgd. food's amazing, coffee's the best, and fags are 2 sgd a box. what's not to like? i love bangkok, ive been there twice this year and it never falls short of my expectations. partying is free, no cover charges in clubs, and alcohol can be drunk like water. now, that's the kinda life we all ought to be living. :) i missed vogue-this-bitch(vtb) though, hence im back and will post more pics of my buys soon. xoxo

i'm british born thai and I LOVE SIAM SQUARE. what bugs me about it though is that sometimes all the shops sell the same ol' shit depending on what the trend is at the time. Seeing as I live in London though it doesn't really affect me! better to go to a wholesale market and buy it on the cheap too cos those cute boutique stores mark up their prices like mad....

what's trendy in bangkok at the mo? haven't been there since last summer. i think cutesy babydoll type stuff was all the rage that year...where's the fash headed now?

Hey girl......nice site....Bangkok brings back memories from my trip....you should come to India and I can show you around.....I think the jewellry here is amazing...of course not as much western wear here that is as cheap as Bangkok . The shops buy in Bangkok and sell it to us at double the prices..

hey all:) thanks for ur comments on vtb.
to c~: at the moment, the girls there are very into trapeze dresses, pressed shirts ala victorian style, babydoll's still kinda in, shirt dresses, tunics, skinny jeans. and they love prints, the bolder the better. they're also very into the whole vintage thing. if you ever get to go to bangkok again, visit platinum shopping mall, it's a wholesaler area so dresses are ridiculously cheap!:) that's always a good thing.

to chrissynb: thanks for your support babe!:) id love to visit india someday and i read your comment earlier about visiting singapore. and id be more than glad to bring you around and show you all the good places to shop, eat, club, etc:) so just keep supporting us. i like accessories, huge bangles and all that jazz, but sometimes i can get abit too lazy. haha. in any case, if you ever visit bangkok you should let me know so i can give u a list of places to visit!
