Whoa Katy!


You see, artists like Katy Perry here makes me love the entertainment industry. :] 

You've heard songs like California girls, Teenage Dreams and you would think -she is just another Hollywood artist. Well, this song proves us so wrong. :]

It's great to hear fresh songs that gives that spark of hope to people that suffer from discrimination. Two thumbs up for Katy for standing up for them! Listen to the song. It sure did give me a great motivational boost ! 

Go you, Katy! :]

Firework - Katy Perry



Do let us know what you think of the song! ;)

Weekend Bliss


Emcee Couture

mc129

Oh dear, with exams around the corner, I hardly had time to update at all! *yipes* Anyways, I've a little time on my plate before heading the books again. And guess what I found?


Are you an Ugly Betty TV series fan? Saw those commercials on the show? Then you will know what we are talking about! :] And we do agree with the cropped jacket bit! And leave it to the girls at Emcee Couture to take this trend and give it a classy spin! ;) We absolutely adore this jacket, so classy and elegant looking, no? Good for office, yet funky enough to style it down the streets! Only for RM47!

Doublewoot

Herve Leger Inspired Bodycon


Bodycons, bodycons, bodycons! For those curvalicious ladies out there seeking for some good compliments to extenuate that sultry body shape! Doublewoot has brought to us the presence of this super-di-duper classic, never out of style basic black dress with that bodycon twist! :]

 We think it's best to leave the neck area bare, (some might opt to accessorize) because well, to show off that gorgeous collar bone of course! ;) To spice this look up, look for an eye catching thick belt to draw attention to that waist! Throw on some bracelets and earrings, can you say evening glamazon? :] Only yours for RM55!

Karyne Version

 Are you a Boho savvy like the olsen twins? Then you will so totally drool over this piece brought to you by Le Mode Maison! :]

Side note: gray is a good middle line between formal and informal. Whilst white may come off as too plain, innocent and too clean and black coming off as too edgy or in your face -gray is a great middle line, it says I'm funky enough to be on the street and demure enough to be formal! Versatility is awesome, no? Makes more out of the money spent!

That baggy loose fitting outfit gives you that earthy feel to your appearance, one that is good! :] Plus it hides those unwanted curves and bumps there, ;) Only yours for RM55!

Love is Louder


Love is Louder


Is Love really louder?

I don't know about you guys, but I am pro-peace. :] People who follow the Hollywood circuit will know that there has been a shocking increase in suicidal cases due to bullying. :[ It's come to the public attention that this has to stop.


And what has it to do with us here in MY? Well, love is the universal language that breaks all barriers. And this campaign started off by Brittany Snow is aimed to prove just that. Today, 19th October is the official launch of this campaign and people world wide is showing support to this amazing cause -because love is louder.

Featured Artist: Pop Shuvit


One of Malaysia's most iconic and possess the longest staying power -Pop Shuvit. They've established themselves as one of Malaysia's best for about 10 years now, so what's next? The Kleio has the exclusive interview with this awesome band to find out more. :]

------------------------------------------


1.       Firstly, could you guys introduce yourselves?
MOOTS (VOX), JD (GUITARS/VOX), RUDY (DRUMS), AJ (BASS), UNO (TURNTABLES)

2.       How did you guys come up with the name ‘Pop Shuvit’?
Pop Shuvit is basically a skateboarding trick also known as a kick flip 360 where you flip the board under your feet and it does a 360 flip.



3.       How did you guys come as a band?
The band has been together for 10 years now but have known each other for more than 15 years since our high school dayz.  We each started out in the music industry with various bands and groups till we got together and started pop shuvit and have been a solid unit ever since.

4.       Who are your main music influences? Both local and international.
Our main influences are each other as we bounce of creatively from one another.  Internationally it would have to be Rage Against The Machine. 

5.       What are your thoughts on the Malaysian music scene?
It is thriving and creatively we are really peaking right now.  The quality of music has increased tenfold in the last 10 years and I’m amazed at the talent that we have in our home soil.

6.       How do you guys find inspiration in writing your songs? 
We draw inspiration from each other and what we have gone through over the years togetheras  a band and as brothers


7.       Among all the songs written, which would be your favourite? And why?
I guess a band favourite has to be Side Swipe from our sophomore album Here and Now.  It was adeparture from standard rap rock flair and lyrically it was a very personal song written about relationships.

8.       What is your most memorable performance to date?
The My chemical Romance Asian tour.  Just to have been invited by the band to perform with them was an honor and getting to play in countires we have never been to was super cool.

9.       What are you guys up to right now?
We are in the midst of finishing up our fifth studio album “CHERRY BLOSSOM LOVE AFFAIR”  this will be our most perosnal album to date.

10 Describe your first album.
Raw, energentic with a pinch of sweetness.  It was 9 years ago and we were all new to studios and songwriting.  I would say a very fun album to make.



11  How do you guys feel when you see/hear your music on air?
Even if it’s the 1,000,000th time it still puts a big smile on my face and I crank up the volume :  )

12   How do you guys deal with all the screaming girls?
We scream back at them!!!

13   What are your long term and short term goals for the band?
Well we are in the medium term of our long term plan.  Our production studio “2105 productions” is up and running.  JD runs it together with AJ and we have produced for bands like bunkface, and estranged.

14   Where do you guys see yourselves in 5 years time?
At the Grammy awards accepting the award for best international act



15Some bands find it hard to live each other, if you guys were to live with each other, who would you think would have the most worse hygiene or living habits?
Well thankfully UNO got rid of the dreadlocks if not it would be him! I think we are all pretty particular about cleanliness so we should be fine but Moots always wets the bathroom!!

16   Describe your journey and how was it so far, as the ever famous, ‘Pop Shuvit’?
Living the dream and enjoying it!  The journey ahs been one big rollercoaster ride of emotions!

17   So do you guys have trouble asking a girl out?
I think we’ve all matured to the point we ourselves know what we want in a girl so yea you can say we are confident enough to go get what we want.

18   Would you ever date a fan?
We try not to but if megan fox said she was a fan how can I say no to that!

19  How are your love lives now? Update us, like who is single and who is taken?
Rudy and AJ are married.  Rudy has baby girl  Eva “shuvit” Lestrai. Moots is also engaged.  UNO and JD are still single and available!


20   Who influences your fashion?
We kinda like to wear what makes us feel comfortable not what we think is cool but the So-Cal skate scene is pretty much the major influence.  Brands like Macbeth and nike endorse us as well.

21   What is your must have in clothing?
Moots has to have his fedora hats now that his spiky days are gone and Rudy can’t rock the drums if he doenst have his new era cap on!

22   Describe your fashion style.
Urban/Street wear.

23   What do you guys do during your free time?
Sleep!!!  We spend so much time with music that sometimes its nice to just laze in bed over a DVD marathon!

24   Any tips to the budding bands hoping to make it?
Keep rocking it and don’t give up!  It took us 10 years to get where we are at now and are still sriving for more!

25  Give a shout out to your fans; what do you want to say to them?
We don’t believe in fans we belive in friends so anyone who has come up and said hi or shook our hands are considered friends so the next time you see us come up and say hi and have a chat!

Dream Heels


So have you ever fancied yourself as a designer? So I was surfing the net the other day (this was before exams, :P) and I came across this website. And I was awed. 

I always fancied to think of myself as some sort of art fan -being that I design, although they are not very good, I still love them. I have always heard of Chuck Taylors, where graffiti artists design and air brush their amazing talent on converse -but never have I heard of designing your own heels!


And guess what, if your design is chosen, you not only get money for your efforts, you get a commission for every heel that is bought! And the heels there are to die for. Not only they are works of art, they are oh-so fashion friendly too!

-an extract from the website-

Design Your Dream Heels 

Step One- Dream up an Idea

The more original, the better! We specialize in printed pumps, but don't just think Zebra or Leopard print. Our state-of-the-art printing technology means anything goes! Think colorful designs, crazy patterns, vivid photography, whatever! If you can dream it, you can put it on your shoe.
When you've got the perfect idea, fire up your favorite graphics program (we use Adobe Illustrator) and start creating!
Step Two- Submit Your Design

Prepare your design according to the instructions on the design template and our shoe design tips.
Next, launch our 3D Shoe Viewer so you can get a better idea of what your design will look like on a real shoe. Once your files are ready, submit your work using the button at the bottom of this page


Step Three- Tell Your Friends


Once submitted, your work will enter the contest to be voted and commented on by the Dream Heels community. Be sure to tell your friends and family about your design so they can vote too!
Wth the help of the community, we'll decided which designs will become the next Dream Heels and then hand out the prizes!
Step Four- Profit

If your design is selected, you'll get:
  • $250 in cash
  • $250 in Dream Dollars (store credit)
  • $0.50 residuals for every pair of shoes sold featuring your design
    (up to 
    $1500)
Residuals will be paid out at the following benchmarks:
  • 1000 pairs sold = $500
  • 2000 pairs sold = $500
  • 3000 pairs sold = $500
That's $2000 in cash and prizes!
The next winner will be selected soon, so get your entries in now!
