Michelle Yeoh Interview

1. In stark contrast to the horrible picture i took of Ridley Scott is this great pic of 

Michelle Yeoh during the relaunch of the LV at Ngee Ann City, Singapore

(she helped design the top floor).

It's a bit like shopping in her living room. She wanted the decor cosy that way...

...so cosy, she actually put some of her personal items in the store and chose the books. Sasek--excellent choice! Note the nod to Selangor pewter. 

Plus that picture was actually taken by her (she's into photography too ;) )

Wrought iron detail at the store.

Outside the St. Regis. Love this. Took it in this dreamy pastel art filter. 

Maybe cropping could be better... and I could have taken it from the other side to avoid that silly placards in front of the (I'm assuming) pig but the light wouldn't have been that good.

Thanks Jasmine for providing the pic!

Here's my dream camera bag. Super roomy. Two side pockets. You can put the camera, an extra lens, your iPod, IPhone and a flash and everything will still be A-okay.

When you unbuckle and open the flap, your Pen looks up at you and says, "Hi".

J'adore tres forte (wrong grammar, right emotion) this!

Desperately Seeking Equally Sexy Bag

The bag I'm currently using is a tiny bucket Vanguard. Problem is, it's really cumbersome and does backflips when I'm not careful. The Pen is just too sexy for it (not to mention petite). The good people at Louis Vuitton have seen me walking around with it. Not cool. Solution: Get someone to chuck the bag behind some counter for you at any event and all will be well again -- nobody can resist the Pen.

A camera bag's necessary. Mine just doesn't go with my outfits.

I won a Pen Carryall as the first prize winner for the camera workshop that day and even that has flaws. Just a top flap, no zipper. Granted, it's full leather and smells wonderful. I just have an uneasy feeling the camera will pop out at any second.

Spotted an absolutely gorgeous one at the LV store. No pic, sorry. It seems to be the only one left in the world (not even the website has an image). Daz was the one who spotted it first, at the very top shelf (Daz's trained eye for fashion has the razor-sharp precision of a hawk's). Damier print, canvas. The shape is very retro -- PERFECT.

Only thing is,

the bag costs more than the camera.
