arissa cheo, & her copycats:D

okay so

according to blogstats googling arissa cheo gets you my blog

and i feel like i'm being disappointing by not having a substantial post on her

and anyway i love her so much she's gorgeous

so here's a post on arissa cheo :D (edit: as well as her two copy cats n_n)

arissa cheo is a socialite from singapore; her occupation 'Fashion & Media Entrepeneur'; her blog can her shop can be found here -> http://www.carteblanche-x.com/arissa/

[so pretty:3]

so anyway

the first thing i did for this post was google image her (surprisingly before today, i hadn't done it before), and most of those pics are arissa cheo... but lol so much michelle phan coming up because of this thread -http://www.gurugossip.net/t4138-michelle-vs-arissa-cheo

(i was ranting about michelle phan in my last post which is how arissa got mentioned n_n)

something in particular i'd mention from the thread if you ceebs;

(arissa on the left and michelle phan on the right)




another blog of interest would be; http://michellephail.tumblr.com/

okay so the OTHER result that appears on google images aside arissa cheo's gorgeous face is dawn yang

and oh hell to the no do not get me started on this girl

pretty much, another arissa cheo wannabe, but to more extremes - similar to mp, she copies her clothes and bags and stuff, but not only that, /dawn yang got excessive plastic surgery to look like arissa/


here's a xiaxue post; http://xiaxue.blogspot.com.au/2008/09/my-idol.html (also shows her excessive photoshop)

one of my favourite photos of dawn's fail is this though


lol fail. anywho!

xiaxue does write a lot about the subject; http://xiaxue.blogspot.com.au/2008/07/yet-another-update-and-i-am-not-happy.html

i think this was the post that dawn tried to sue her about. which led to the other post up there. sorry for out of orderness n_n

http://theliesofdawn.blogspot.com.au/ <- hasnt updated in a while, but there is a LOT on pretty much just her spreading false rumours about arissa and other people on forums (wow no life), making false aliases to post nice things about herself on her blog, etc

anyway this ended up talking more about arissa cheo's copycats than arissa cheo, but whatever n_n that's what most people are interested in anyway~


i


ending with cute pic of arissa :D

i remember on formspring a while ago, someone asked for opinions on couple shirts etc

and most of the responses were negative! like ew wtf, why would you!

i was so surprised because couple shirts etc are so cute D8 one of my followers was even like lolol athy couple shirts you immature little kid hawhaw

AND SO, HERE IS A POST DEDICATED TO CUTE AZN COUPLES IN MATCHING GEAR FOR YOU H8ERZ (:

babydontlietome.

i'm feeling very uninspired lately.

writing for 4u has been sapping all of that away, and not to mention after this i have a 3u creative to finish (i left it half done because i got too tired of it) and a 2u creative to tweak and possible redo.

and now apparently everyone's already looking at formal dresses?!

makes sense, formal's basically right after hsc, but i'm not in the mood to look at beautiful dresses when everything sucks n_n

instead, pictures of hot azns with good style












sighsighsigh, geoffrey made me promise i'd try and finish chem research by the end of the weekend.

4k words 4u and finished chem research. i can do this.

=_= really ?! re: michelle's first ever jewellery line

okay so, i've never really been that big of a fan of michelle phan right

i pretty much discovered her through the bubzbeauty vs michelle phan wars in the comments of bubzbeauty videos

i respect that michelle phan is good with makeup etc etc, and she doesn't seem like a bad person really, (charity channel, such and such...) - i probably learnt stuff from her videos

i unsubbed her because i lost interest. her videos were getting too repetitive. it wasn't because i especially disliked her or anything at the time.

i'm an avid follower of other beauty/fashion bloggers though, and one of those is xiaxue. it led to a whole stalking of the dawnyang vs xiaxue drama, which led to me finding out about arissa cheo (the socialite dawn yang tries so hard to be like), which led to me finding about phan too trying too hard to be like arissa.

no big deal - arissa cheo is gorgeous, has style, is rich and famous... she's everything most girls want to be! that's not so much of a reason to dislike michelle phan right?

that is until... she releases this jewellery line.

WHOA HOLD THERE. HOLDDDD UP.

i have nothing against jewellery, lines, jewellery lines, people wanting to make jewellery lines - that is not the issue okay?! i know people are against this because of making money etc etc - that's not really it! i mean like, she's famous, duh she's going to make money off it.

the main thing i have against this is the whole concept of this.

yes, churches are pretty, the symbolisms are pretty - stuff like overlapping circles probably get incorporated into jewellery pieces by accident all the time

you dont need to advertise the pieces as 'inspired by stain glass windows of the church' - there are stain glass windows /everywhere/

she has to realise that not only as a marketing thing does this not work (since the amount of non-Christians etc to be detered )... as a Christian, i find it pretty insulting. i don't think i know of any Christians that would find this kind of market appealing at all - it's like the cross rings trend and such. making the cross a fashion icon - i doubt any Christians were in support of /that/ - i don't get why she's trying to follow suit on a basically dead trend.

one line that really ticked me off is at 1:18 - 'in the book of Genesis, Eden is described as a beautiful garden where Adam and Eve first lived. Eden is /not/ a figment of imagination... Ever Eden is a jewellery line.'

OKAY, WHOA.

so michelle phan fans are saying OMGG WHY IS IT BAD - SHE'S BEEN A CHRISTIAN ALL HER LIFE etc etc - right there she's implying that the Garden of Eden never existed? that somehow, it's popular Christian belief that the Garden of Eden never existed? but oh, we are /wrong/ - EDEN IS HER JEWELLERY LINE?

how is this not wrong on so many levels?!

it is downright insulting and i dont see how people can be in support of this, or what she was thinking when she came up with this

maybe she wants a whole controversy on it to boost its widespreadness - if that's the route she's going down, then good for her, it's working on me

3:05 - 'i guess in a way, i should thank Saint Joan of Arc and all of you for inspiring me to believe in myself, and to fight for what i love...'

you know what, i like the knight collection. the concept was sounding good until you brought joan of arc into it. you didn't need to link it to joan of arc. it was unnecessary, forced, etc.

joan of arc didnt inspire her - she just needed something to talk about as she showed herself off=_=

sorry to return to blogging on such a negative note - i couldn't help but rant when i saw this video though! i guess by coincidence i got reminded this blog existed - oops :P

in the case rabid michelle phan fans find this... errr, hi, have fun trying to insult me calling me a jealous bitch etc...
