From time to time and when the occasions call for it, we like to throw parties for our friends and family. Parties are great events to get together with your loved ones, reconnect and have a great time. Parties are fun but organising them can be a tad daunting. There is a lot of planning, getting the right supplies, choosing the perfect venue and so much more that goes into organising a party to remember. The best party should be memorable to both the organisers and those who attend it. Luckily we have a few tips to help you organize…

NEW: TV Show Featuring Lolitas! I’m Asian American and…I’m a Living Doll
A new show called “I’m Asian American and…” on Myx .TV is taking on a topic I know you’ll love! Originating from Japanese street fashion, the Lolitas adopt “ye olde time” Victorian fashion and elements from Japanese anime to create a unique style reminiscent of expensive porcelain dolls. Fully decked out in fake eyelashes, contacts, wigs, extensions, and/or dyed hair, they got it all, and have no shame in wearing it everywhere – making it more of a lifestyle than a trend by far. It’s hard to say what the exact point is, it’s different for every Lolita out there, but overall, they are aiming to look…

Singapore and Mentos Collaborate to Get Some Babies Made
Singapore has a huge population issue at the moment and it’s only getting worse. What should they do? Well, to start they can encourage people to go home and have sex (to make babies and all) after the Singapore National Day festivities, or during for all they care, they just want kids. If this campaign was run in the U.S., it probably wouldn’t go over very well, especially for Mentos, who would likely be accused of all sorts of things, especially in the highly charged political environment at the moment. It’s a humorous video, with some rather clever and racy…
2012 Olympics Begin and Out Comes The Swag
I love to travel and I used to feel guilty if I wore a tee with a flag or place on it I hadn’t been yet, but I decided a little while ago – maybe after visiting New York, or seeing the great travel tee inventions of Gelada, that it didn’t matter. Even if I would never go to that place, I could still show my appreciation for it. I found a few designers who are really all about appreciating places, and just in time for the Olympics. Whether you wear a flag for their athletes or the place itself, it doesn’t…
