Apparently Rick Owen's newest collection was inspired by climate change and the total annihilation of environmental destruction.

Have you heard Bring Me The Horizon's latest album yet? Like most fans I was quite shocked/disappointed at first that they went such a different direction but have to say the album is really growing on me. Especially this track. Desperate yet uplifting. Perfection.<br />

Currently looking for a desk fan because Austral summer is just getting unbearably hot. Have always been fascinated by these bladeless fans but they are quite an investment (around AUD 400 mark).<br />

Apologies I have been away from this blog for quite a while. 2015 was quite a big year for me, went on and joined a few different projects after I finished uni in July and just haven't had the time/inspiration to update this blog. Promise I'll try to post more regularly this year, it's on my official 2016 resolution list (amongst cutting down on Lord of the Fries)</div>

Less than 11 hours till we start the Global Divestment Day rally in Sydney! Come along if you are free around 12pm. The rally will take place at Commbank HQ at Darling Quarter and we will ask Commbank to halt its potential investment in Adani's Abbot Point project that risks the priceless Great Barrier Reef.<br />

<br />
Video footages from an event held last week at Harold Park Hotel in Glebe on the issues of metadata retention, global surveillance and the TPP (Trans-Pacific Partnership), featuring Scott Ludlam, Samantha Castro and Jacob Grech.<br />
<br />
I unfortunately missed the panel but the lovely organisers put up the vids onto youtube. Gracias amigo!<br />
<br />
Personally I think it's always nice to hear more voices on important issues like internet neutrality and privacy. The footages are a bit lengthy so when you've got some time at a break, grab a cup of tea and just enjoy.<br />

A few new-on-the-virtual-shelves leather-free trainers for the new season (spring or autumn depending on where you live). I'm especially in love with the Nike ones, with its orangey colour blocks and the signature Air Max sole, fresh, sporty, a lil' funky yet simple. Perfect to spice up a minimalist's outfit (plus orange is the new black per the new Zara campaign). With monochrome spring coat, cropped trousers and a simple t-shirt like <i><a href="http://www.acnestudios.com/shop/men/t-shirts/chelsea-short-white.html" target="_blank">this one</a></i> from Acne, say hello to the dream outfit.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02842360132046135809noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4155653247708492837.post-75167513284297211182015-02-05T19:35:00.000+11:002015-02-05T19:35:10.278+11:00varsity<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

A friend of my friend debuted 2 weeks ago as a one-man-band with this EP. Unfortunately I couldn't attend the launch party but the tracks are out for purchase and on spotify now and I'm quite digging the sound (bias aside). The vocal reminds me much of Timo Kotipelto (vocal of Stratovarius, 90s flashback anyone?) and overall it's less hardcore than what I usually listen to and quite 'versatile' in the sense that it's easy to listen to however your mood is for the day.<br />

ZARA released its SS15 campaign looks earlier this week and it's still very very ZARA: minimalistic and clean but with a twist of colours that are usually associated with AW seasons. Can't wait for these to hit the stores soon, although we in Australia will probably have to wait for another 6 months. /insert sad emojis</div>

Topman is offering a 20% off suits this week, expires this Friday and no code required. So here are my best-finds out of the vast offering, vegan-friendly as always.<br />
<br />
I feel like now is a great time to click home some new suits regardless of which hemisphere you live on (although the tartan trend is probably more autumn-fitting) and these three pieces can be really quite versatile in my opinion. Button up with slacks for a smart-casual get-up or rock the over-the-shoulders look (get one size up the blazer) mixed with urban/sporty bottoms, which is of course my favourite way to wear a blazer.<br />
<br />
I admit I'm getting all excited for autumn weather already now.<br />

Went to the preview night of '<i>The Unspoken Word is Joe</i>' last week at SBW Stables Theatre and it was so brilliant! Amazing script and performance. The play was sold out during Melbourne's Fringe Festival and written by the Melb rising star Zoey Dawson. </div>

If I have to avoid giving out spoilers and maximise your enjoyment, there's really nothing I can say except that you totally need to see this. Just head on to Griffin's website <i><a href="http://www.griffintheatre.com.au/whats-on/the-unspoken-word-is-joe/" target="_blank">here</a></i>, don't even read the synopsis and go straight ahead to buy a ticket to each of your friends and family members. Even just for the sake of supporting talented Australian (female) playwright and artists. You will not regret.</div>

<b><i>Major Spoilers</i></b> Alert:<br />
<br />
It reminds me of <i>Birdman</i>, probably because of the metatheatricality but due to the advantage of being a play, in a very intimate theatre, <i>TUWIJ</i> successfully blurred out the line between reality and fiction. The play weaves its way through the inner-theatre and the meta-theatre as the story progresses, together with the amazing acting, it was one of the best executed metatheatre works I've ever encountered.<br />
<br />
But of course, metatheatre wouldn't be great per se if it's just for the gimmicky dramatical effect. The play uses this technique to induce audience's personal emotions, mostly sympathy I would assume, by showing the protagonist Zoey struggling for her success in this theatre industry in its most raw and unedited state. I have been to SBW theatre a lot of times before but this was the best one that utilises its small space and non-existent stage-audience boundary to the absolute maximum.<br />
<br />
The only thing that could be picked on is that it heavily relies on audience's unawareness of the nature of the play. It would still be a great play if the audience was aware of the metatheatricality (I'm actually going to see it again with my friends next week) but the full effect of the script would be quartered without doubt.<br />
<br />
However all in all, full of creativity yet perfectly emotional and well executed. 8.5/10Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02842360132046135809noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4155653247708492837.post-27114930816958478742015-01-27T21:31:00.000+11:002015-01-27T21:31:20.824+11:00Acne men a/w 2015<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I've always found myself disagreeing with those mainstream hollywood-exclusive awards. But in this case I do find my own opinions aligning with the oscar and the globe, and many others. Julianne Moore delivered yet another fantastic performance but the whole film is quite plain and not matching up to that level.<br />
<br />
It was quite emotional, I know I teared up for a couple of times and the girl who sat next to me was weeping at the end of the credit roll. But a good film requires more than the ability to make your eyes water. The film focuses very much on Moore's character and how she struggles through losing her memories bit by bit. However, the very 'catchphrase', emphasised in the trailer and also in the movie, 'struggling to be a part of things'. A part of what things? As the camera focuses primarily on Moore I had pretty much no idea what other characters were doing. Yes we did see that her eldest daughter got a twin, which took up about, 1 min of the entire film? And then what else? We know that her husband, played by Alex Baldwin, was planning to move but it also lacks much in-depth look into the conflict of interest of these two characters at the end of the event especially. And Kristen Stewart's character, how about her career and everything?<br />
<br />
By the end of the film I couldn't help but feel that the heroine was only a part of her own struggling, which by itself is fine but somehow due to the skew balance amongst the characters her family members just appear to be very, very flat.<br />
<br />
It sort of reminded me of a Japanese film that came out last year called 'Our Family', starring my fav Satoshi Tsumabuki. Both centred on the mum of the family who's gradually losing her memories, only different causes but still very similar symtoms at the beginning. The difference is that 'Our Family' did indeed emphasised the 'family' concept and paid a large amount of screen time on other fam member's actions. How they react, how their lives are affected and how they struggle to overcome. At the end you get a much more heartfelt movie that really explores the true impact of such illness.<br />
<br />
Of course 'Our Family' is probably going too far away from what the director of 'Still Alice' wanted to achieve as they obviously have different centres and purposes and thus they can't be directly compared against each other. But in my personal humble opinion, 'Still Alice' sacrificed itself to maximise the halo around Julianne Moore's already impeccable performance.<br />
<br />
Last thing I would like to add is that I did find some of the cinematography quite appropriate and helped to amplify the protagonist's emotional shifts throughout the film.<br />

Overall rating: 6.5/10<br />

To all of you who are trying out veganism this January, how you doing so far? It's past half of the month I hope you don't find it too difficult?<br />
<br />
I hope all of you are aware of the amazing resources on Veganuary's website <i><a href="http://www.veganuary.com/" target="_blank">here</a>. </i>For my fellow Sydney and Melbourne folks, have you visited <i><a href="http://www.crueltyfreeshop.com.au/" target="_blank">the Cruelty Free Shop</a></i> yet (they also ship nationwide)? Newtown and Fitzroy are great places to visit but sometimes you can find vegan-friendly kitchens in more 'mainstream' areas (hurray to Lord of the Fries). And a lot of the times you can also ask the chef to remove animal products in your pasta, ask nicely though.<br />
<br />
If you would like to meet more plant-powered people or just want to have a good time, come to Sydney Vegan Festival on 22 Mar in Marrickville. For more info and tickets click <i><a href="http://sydneyveganfestival.com/comingsoon/" target="_blank">here</a></i><br />
<br />
I would love to hear your thoughts if you're doing Veganuary or just generally intersted in veganism. Or questions, I'd try my best to answer.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02842360132046135809noreply@blogger.com0
