Four (4) weekends ago, it was Isetan members’ sales again. I dragged my dearest along to KLCC for window shopping hopping that I would be able to get something that of great deal. As usual, we parked behind KL Convention Centre and walked to KLCC. Didn’t realised it was Kuala Lumpur International Batik (KLIB) week till we saw a large banner along the hallway. Well, I have to say that I have not been attending my fashion classes for sometime due to my tight schedule in APIIT, so wasn’t aware of the event.

Entrance was free and I must say the display was filled with lots of colours. Well, batik is known to be colourful. Oh, what am I talking about? Anyway, what amazes me are the things people can create out of batik, from clothing lines, home decoration to furniture. And in batik, it’s all about playing with the colours. Every pieces of are unique on its own, unless you go for pattern printing.

There were also some work display by the finalist of Piala Seri Endon.

There was not only batik & craft display, there were many other batik exhibitors as well as a batik fashion show display by various batik designers.

Doesn’t she look like Rachel Lim? Or is that her?

I happened to found out about Emporio Armani recently new launch fragrance for women called – Emporio Armani Diamond while browsing through YouTube yesterday and I like what I see. *grin* Okay, I know this may be old news for some of you.

Although the launch was three (3) months ago. Still, I have not seen any advertisement, road show or launch in Malaysia about this new fragrance. Come on, I’m sure they would make a big deal about it, having Beyonce as the new face of Armani’s fragrance. This fragrance definitely gonna sell.

I’ve always loved Armani fragrances, especially Armani Code for women. But since it’s been so popular, it’s no longer unique to wear it. I’ve came across a numbers women in the mall wearing Armani Code.

Armani Code for Women, which ranked 9th on US Mother’s Day and amongst the top five bestsellers in several European markets (Germany, Italy, UK). - source

But this Emporio Armani Diamond is simply resistible. I’m sure it smell as good as it looks.

Anyway, do check out very own Emporio Armani Diamonds Commercial Featuring Beyonce. And yes, Diamonds are a girl’s best friend. I totally agree!

David Beckham is not only a famous footballer but also a fashion icon and he’s everything woman would look for in a man - looks, talents, skills and wealth. You probably have seen David Beckham in many advertisements in Malaysia itself and one of them Malaysian very own telecommunication provider – Celcom.

He has gone from clean cut to bad boy looks, and even did some steaming shoots with his sexy wife – Victoria Beckham. *Lucky girl*

And very soon, you will be seeing more of David Beckham in just underwear! But I doubt that we’ll be seeing any of those ads in Malaysia. You know la…

The soccer legend will star as the new global face for Emporio Armani Underwear- which will be available in the U.S. for the first time starting in February. - source
