» Apiwat Eurthavornsuk would never be described as traditionally handsome. But there's something endearing about the combination of his droopy eyes and upwardly curved lips, which give the impression of an etched-in smile, that complements his easy-going, good-tempered, everyman persona.

» Sometimes it's hard to believe that Big Mountain Music Festival (BMMF) is six-years-old. In dog years, that's already quite a feat. Over the weekend, the festival celebrated its sixth anniversary with a facelift in terms of stage decorations, site alterations and new additions tucked away at Khao Yai.

» Thailand is never short of festivals, all year round. From EDM, nostalgic, broken heart to song for life festivals, we've become both immune and suspicious whenever the word "festival" comes up, as one often looks, feels and sounds like another. But Wonderfruit Festival, taking place from Dec 19-21 in Chon Buri, aims to change all that.

» For the past 12 years the Sretsis sisters, Kly, Pim and Matina Sukhahuta, have unknowingly changed the face of the Thai fashion industry. Tell them this, and they bashfully giggle it off. But they have. With Pim at the design helm, youngest Matina handling the jewellery and eldest Kly tackling marketing, Sretsis, woven by intimate family ties, fantastical fairy tales and effervescent femininity, has turned many Thai girls’ shapes on to classic womanly silhouettes with subtle twists using crafted, printed fabrics and subtle details that hark back to old glamour. They have given girls a chance to wear their enchanted forest dreams and spiritual adventures on their appliqued sleeves.

» If you've watched the overrated 500 Days Of Summer, you know The Temper Trap. On the semi-indie inspired soundstrack, The Temper Trap's Sweet Disposition stuck in the mind like a piece of bacon on a non-Teflon pan.

» Gaspard Auge and Xavier de Rosnay didn't want to turn the lights in their dressing room on. Illuminating the dim room were lights seeping through the blinds.
