Okay not exactly what I would call fashionable but to each their own right? As if! Whoever decided to mutilate these poor consoles should be shot in the face.

A video game themed fashion/lifestyle magazine in France called Amusement is flourished with various “fashionable” console photos and typical gaming scenes. While I’m a bit concerned over the NDS and Wii in the photo, the ideas for the photo shoots make me LOL.

Although the blonde babe has suffered the biggest breakout of our time, she has still managed to keep herself together.

Most recently, she graves the cover of GQ magazine in absolutely nothing but a tie. Sounds hot? Of course but she’s also flaunting seductive yet playful smile that begs the question, did Brad make a mistake? Probably not because Angelina Jolie is far sexier now that I’ve seen her butt in Wanted but there’s still hope for Jennifer Aniston.

So I know it’s almost Christmas now but I finally decided to upload these photos! I don’t necessarily celebrate holidays, including my birthday, so this is as good as it’ll get for me.

These photos are from Thanksgiving and more or less Christmas. As you can see, NY goes all out for Xmas and why wouldn’t they? It’s the best time of the year. Berdoff Goodman is known for their window displays and they are quite the sight. Also if you’re around Grand Central, you can check out the light show and the Aquos LCD Christmas tree.

In case you’re wondering, I spent the Thanksgiving Day eating at a busy Dim Sum restaurant and later walking around Chinatown. I managed to snap a few photos. Nothing special honestly but my cake was really good.

Brenda Song is one of the few Asian Americans in the US Entertainment industry that knows how to dress. Yes I’m talking about Bai Ling.

In this video, Brenda gives viewers a tour of her Disney TV series “The Suite Life” closet. If you didn’t know she plays a very self absorbed, fashion conscious rich girl named London. So yeah there’s going to be a lot of neat clothes (but her pink sequin outfit isn’t one of them). She’s definitely got taste and I find myself seemingly jealous of her. However, I definitely wouldn’t want my mom buying my diamond studded hooker heels.

Hime in Japanese means princess and is one of the many fashion trends in Japan.

Himegyaru is inspired by the old Victorian style royalty and idols like Marie Antoinette and Paris Hilton. The style is typically pink and/or white with adornments like bows, flowers and ribbons. You’ll mainly the style in only knee high dresses with heels, jewelry and a head piece. Also big curly hair (usually blonde) is typical.

This is the coolest Mario t-shirt I’ve seen. Although it’s a bit cheesy I’m more than happy to shell out a twenty to have this in my wardrobe.

80stees.com is supported by now retired Yankee pitcher Mike Mussina. He claims he thought the idea was funny and it is. The site features a variety of 80’s t-shirts that’ll make you nostalgic and laugh.

The site flaunts a crappy design but it’s what’s on the inside that counts right?

Who says geeky isn’t sexy? This adorable red garter belt has a simple design adorned with a NES controller. Honestly there’s nothing special about it other than the charm but how can I resist? It’s $22 on Etsy by Kizette. That’s not all she has; however, she has more geeky items such as a Pi Math Garter and Zombie Brain Garter. Looks like I know what I’m getting for my wedding night. *Wink wink*

I’m the type of person who likes to personalize/customize everything if I can so it’s only natural that I would want to decorate my cell phone! I’m not just talking about the cute little charm you can attach to your cell but actually decking out the faceplate with decor.

Cell phone decoration has become quite the trend in Japan. Not only do they deck out their phones with rhinestones but small plastic items in the shape of desserts. Yum? While it is a bit on the pricy side, you can actually go to your local arts and craft store and find things that are cheaper or get original pieces from Strappya (Japanese cell phone merchandise store).

There’s loads of ways your can decorate your phone even with rhinestones. Some people would just cover their phones in the same color but it’s gotten a little more advance than that. Now-a-days you can use patterns or even intricate designs like a fish or even your name.

Also thanks to this big décor boom, more and more items are being personalized like hand mirrors or hair brushes. A bit over the top but it’s still cute.

While there’s a million ways to go, I prefer rhinestones because at the end of the day it still has to fit in your hand. While the fatty in me says go for the cookies, my inner diva would rather glam it up then end up on the streets attempting to devour my phone.

Fashion definitely has no limits especially now that they’ve started designing for outer space. What?

Asia Brief recently covered the latest fashion trends in space fashion. Apparently someone thought that you need to look good in space which I guess is reasonable. No not really. Since more and more average people are visiting the outer reaches of earth, being fashionable has become a must due to photo ops. Next thing you know we’ll have America’s Next Top Model in Space!

However, looking good is not all that there is to it. The clothes must also follow safety regulations such as being non-flammable.

While I always thought safety would come first above everything else, fashion seems to be not too far behind it.

While I’m all for fashion creativity, there is no reason why it should look tacky like this Mario corset.

A supercute corset made from alternating RARE & vintage Super Mario Brothers and red & white polka dot print fabric, topped off with bias tape flanking the bodice, a delicate sweetheart-shaped bustline, two polka dot ribbon bows, crude contrast stitching and silver metal grommets in the back so you can lace up! FULLY boned for support.

I’ll give it to the creator for being a Mario fan but not everyone has to look like a clown. I love polk-a-dots but they only work on a few things, one of which isn’t Mario. Also, matching it with a black tutu on a zebra background doesn’t help it at all. It’s a shame. I’ve always loved gamer wear too.
