Designer: AYQIDO by Manuela Erinaard [contact]
It's not too often that you come across a fashion label that's extraordinarily original, but AYQIDO is just that--truly unique. Created by Manuela Erigaard of Antwerp, Belgium, AYQIDO is part of STUDIO AYQIDO, a multidisciplinary studio encompassing fashion, photography and audiovisuals. The studio draws themes from traditional Japanese martial arts and the urban lifestyle, successfully pairing opposing influences like the hypermodern city of Tokyo with the ancient Zen gardens of Kyoto.
In the same sense, AYQIDO, the fashion label, aims to achieve a similar aesthetic and ethos as the larger studio in which it represents. Drawing inspiration from timeless and durable martial arts clothing, the label is in constant search for an oasis of balance and simplicity in the chaotic urban lifestyle. Describing her design process, Manuela says, “we always try to minimize the designs so they are free of unnecessary details, creating an impression of simplicity.” Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication, as they say, and Manuela certainly learned from the best, working with Alexander McQueen, Comme des Garçons, and Yohji Yamamoto throughout her career.

Truth to tell, I was too pooped to take a peek at the ceremonies. But I was able to catch the highlights, thanks to the Facebook/CNN collab.
For a high profile celebrity memorial, it was pretty pared down, with performances and eulogies from very select artists close to the family or Michael himself.
Brooke Shields gave a very personal account on how they hooked up and how their friendship lasted for decades. It was touching, funny, light- hearted and honest.
The most heart-wrenching eulogy came from Michael's daughter Paris.
But John Mayer rocked!
Looking really dapper in a vest and tie, he played my all-time favorite MJ song, Human Nature.
JOHN MAYER + HUMAN NATURE = LOVE
Whoever invited him to play, THANK YOU!
Oh, and one last thing.
MJs casket may be the priciest thing there is,
But it kinda reminded me of a chafing dish.
PLEASE DON'T HATE ME!
I <3 MJ TOO...

After several posts, I have finally discovered how to use Ǖ. Ñ and Ҫ, as well as the rest of the special characters. I know, I know, I'm an idiot. SUE ME!
Thanks to my friend, I had an online tutorial a few hours ago and he taught me how to get all these characters from my PC.
SHEESH!
Thanks, MBIII!

First were the MRAS ( Men's brassiere), then the Thong Dongs, and now comes...
THE MANTYHOSE!
Yup, it's pantyhose for men!
I don't know about you, but touching a man's leg with pantyhose feels like feeling up an SM saleslady's leg. With shag carpeting. ew.
up close and personal..
But overall, it's not so bad. Though I'm not gonna be convinced to buy one if their ad looks like crap.
I'd probably reconsider if I use it like this:
