» Sisters Wowdow and Raweeras Poocharoen and their friend Pornthip Patiluntakalkool look like they each belong to a different social scene. Wowdow, a 33-year-old softly-spoken interior designer, has a confident, mature personality, while her 26-year-old sister Raweeras is a young and hip artist type. Pornthip, 30, who has known the two for years, is a girly girl with an up-and-at-em character. Cool and composed, Wowdow was born and bred in America, while her artsy sister grew up in Chiang Mai. Pornthip, described by her two friends as a "go getter", was raised in Chantaburi province. Despite their diverse backgrounds, what the trio share is their passion for tie-dyed fabric, and the love for the brand they've built together.

» With mushrooming condominiums, office buildings, residence projects and shopping malls, construction workers are an important part of Bangkok's economy. While government policies are in place to ensure construction workers are paid and that they — and their families — have access to basic healthcare and education, reality is often different.
School's not out for summer

» A few decades ago, after-school tutoring was just for children who really needed it — those failing classes and not keeping up with their peers. Summer holidays were spent relaxing at home, helping parents with chores, or doing other non-academic activities.
Come rain or shine

» April has proved to be an interesting month; from scorching heat to torrential rain, we have seen it all. It’s also one of the least skin-friendly months of the year, thanks to the sweat and humidity in the air which seems to melt away any make-up you put on your skin.
Sunnies delight
Muse, Napamon Roongwitoo, Published on 25/04/2015
» There’s never a more important time of the year than now to put on your shades, now that the sunlight is beating down mercilessly. Wearing shades not only protects your eyes from too much UV exposure, but also reduces the need to squint, a habit that leads to wrinkles and lines. It’s also a good cover up on days you can’t be bothered with make-up, or when your mascara and eyeshadow has smudged all over.
