Inked for a week
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 24/06/2016
» What's left to talk about in style after clothes, accessories, hair and make-up, but skin? And we're not just after skincare, which takes ages to show subtle results, but something trendy you can do to your skin instantly, temporarily and harmlessly for some dramatic self-expression. The hot topic in style this week is sticker tattoos. The benefits of this form of peel-on skin décor are vast, ranging from deliberately annoying conservative folks to entertaining the idea of getting a real one. Whatever your motive, you gotta know what's out there, and that's where we come in. Guru reviews three local vendors for temporary tatts, all of which can be ordered via your phone.

Twice the Magic, Twice the Madness
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 06/01/2017
» Tada Piriyanupong, 26, is a Thai business arts major at ABAC who has lived most of his life in Dubai. Charles-Alexis Guenard, also studying at ABAC but in the faculty of communication arts, is a half-Thai and half-French 20-year-old who was born in France. Together, they form a charismatic magic duo known as "Charles The French and Tada" who perform all over the country in major hotels, shopping venues and occasionally on television. We had a chat with the pair and it was everything one could hope for in an interview — reeking with personality.

Zoom into Love
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 18/11/2016
» If you're a dancer or have ever been one, you'll know that most of it is practice. Practising at school. Practising at home. Practising on the streets. In the sheets -- wait no. The point is it's a lot of practise, a lot of behind-the-scene stuff. Which is not to say it isn't fun. It just makes the opportunity to finally perform in front of an audience all the more thrilling and worthwhile. That's the kind of attitude reverberating at Studio Zoom right now, as its 250 or so dancers prepare for the school's annual showcase.

We didn't start the fire
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 10/03/2017
» People, it's not even April yet, and the city feels as though it's been chosen as the launch site for the opening of the gates of hell. Stay cool and hydrated. Make this your daily mantra. This, we're serious about. But as you sip your sweet ice coffee under some air-conditioned refuge, we offer you a light-hearted recap of a few funny, exciting or random bits of news that are theoretical and totally scientific explanations of why this country is so ******* hot right now!

Karma's on our Side
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 10/03/2017
» Her name draws immediate intrigue. On one hand, it's just a damn cool and contemporary name. On the other hand, knowing that she's repping Thailand in an all-female group exhibition celebrating women for the occasion of International Women's Day, we're curious of what themes and images this clearly multicultural homie will bring to the table. We spoke to 29-year-old artist Karma Sirikogar to pick her brains about feminism and also learn more about her background and style of visual abstraction.

Dragged by the heals
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 17/03/2017
» We did it. We've gone where no other BKK lifestyle publication has gone before for a story. We went drag. Nope, we didn't just stand on the sidelines, ask questions and admire. We went in, literally, as far as you can go, and experienced it first-hand for ourselves. And who else would we entrust with all the hair glue, glitter and lip-overlining other than the one and only leading Thai drag diva extraordinaire Pangina Heals.

Bewitched
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 10/02/2017
» Over New Year's, I watched a local film in Los Angeles that peaked on so many levels. It was called The Love Witch. The story centres around a sensual dark-haired witch, played by the stunning Samantha Robinson (look her up), who uses magic to make men fall in love with her. It's absolutely brilliant. Seriously, go search and watch it. Because not only did we enjoy The Love Witch for its witty commentary on love, sexuality and feminism through the medium of comedic horror, the film left us obsessed with ultra-sassy 60s fashion. Ever since, we've been looking for ways to pay tribute to the Love Witch's style, and what better time to unleash the attitude than during the season of love.

You an Elf or a Grinch?
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 23/12/2016
» There are two types of people in this world: those who live for Christmas lights, ugly sweaters and an endless airplay of We Wish You A Merry Christmas; and those who seek to hibernate through the "winter" and wake up only when times are sane again. Here are signs that you're either straight outta Santa's workshop or the spawn of Scrooge.

Feelings only
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 23/09/2016
» The most interesting thing happening at the EM District right now is the annual EmQuartier Art Festival. Aside from the art market and creative workshops for you to swan-dive into, the festival's main exhibition should definitely be on your agenda, as it is the first dual exhibition between two masters of Thai abstract art, Somyot Hananuntasuk and Somboon Hormtientong. Guru catches up with the legends to get a better understanding of what draws them towards abstract art and what it has meant to them for the last 40 years and counting.

Pass the popcorn
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 07/10/2016
» Do you ever just wonder what filmmakers or film critics watch to unwind? Or what was the movie that did wonders for them? Are they all going to be so esoteric, or do some of them love the same stupid films we do? We decided to find out by calling up a variety of local influencers in the industry -- some godly, others up-and-coming but interesting -- and inviting them to speak candidly about films.
