    Cream of the newest crop

    Muse, Parisa Pichitmarn, Published on 07/05/2016

    » As a sanctuary for designers, Zen Department Store is a place where shoppers are spoiled for choices -- a few too many choices, to be honest. And although it's not the biggest brands that pack Zen, don't let the newer names dampen your interest. Some of these brands do prove to be more than just a rich girl's hobby and are definitely worth keeping an eye on. Following the Bangkok Fashion Runway to welcome the summer season, we hand-pick the best of the bunch that were presented at CentralWorld.

    Life, Parisa Pichitmarn, Published on 22/07/2016

    » The occasion calls for a teary eye, but Thailand Creative and Design Center (TCDC) is holding its very last exhibition at its current home in The Emporium with a factory loaded with laughter.

    Sentiment lost in symbols

    Life, Parisa Pichitmarn, Published on 11/11/2015

    » Personally, November is a bit of a bummer month, for not having anything to look forward to. The only festive frolicking is Loy Krathong -- and I'm not sure what that commemorates or celebrates precisely. Out of habit and some weird justification, my household will probably have to float something in our little village pond. Mostly because it's become a bit of a societal requirement -- you're considered a total misanthrope if the neighbours notice that you don't show up. Besides being shunned by the village, would I be forever blacklisted by the water gods for choosing to opt out of this eye-watering and ecologically reckless festival?

    Tale as old as time

    Life, Parisa Pichitmarn, Published on 03/03/2015

    » It brings an emotional tear to eye when cartoons can capture the heart-wrenching trials of humanity, but when humans can come across convincingly as cartoons, the result is undeniable glee. Disney's Broadway spectacular, Beauty And The Beast, which is showing in Thailand for the very first time, brings the 1991 Oscar-winning classic of the same name to life.

    Roy: A film to test the patience

    Life, Parisa Pichitmarn, Published on 20/02/2015

    » As a movie that takes forever to start and forever to end, glaciers move faster than Roy. Coined as a "romantic thriller", this work of 147 minutes by debut director Vikramjit Singh is anything but and should instead be called a patience tester. Regardless, there's some good in this eye-candy fest too, making it a specimen of what could fit into both the dos and don'ts at film school.

    Bonjour, Loubi World!

    Life, Parisa Pichitmarn, Published on 30/10/2020

    » For the first time ever, heel fanatics will be able to buy themselves a pair of Christian Louboutin shoes for approximately 62 baht. That's a crazy good deal, considering how a pair of shoes from this luxury high-end brand should set you back no less than 20,000 baht. The catch, however, is that all this must be done (and worn) in the Korea-based gaming application Zepeto.

    The sensation of all senses

    » 'Do you like The Beatles?" is one of the first questions Maribel asks me during our consultation before the treatment starts. "Well, even if you don't, you don't have a choice. You'll just have to listen to it anyway," she quips.

    Love, always

    Muse, Parisa Pichitmarn, Published on 11/08/2018

    » Flowers are always a nice gesture, but ones that can last forever are sure to give you a better run for your money. Why not gift mum with some jewellery pieces that come with the floral sentiment? Flowery assortments from Swarovski come in contemporary designs which feature a timeless black and white colour combo. They've also got a pearl option where they can be removed from the earring to channel the asymmetrical earring trend. If you want real diamonds, Tilda's Mother's Day collection features florals which also hold symbolic meaning through eight flower petals. Eight represents infinity, or infinite love in Western culture, while signifying wealth, or infinite fortune in Chinese culture. Otherwise, seal your love with hearts from Pandora which also comes in rose or golden hues this season. Their iconic logo and heart-shaped charms come in sweet colours that will blend right in with your staple silver set, while there are also letter charms to spell out your appreciation for mum.
