A Frame Has No Name
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 15/07/2016
» We're not unimpressed by the option of frames and shades spectacle labels have to offer this season. Oh no, not at all. Just the names of all their fabulous products are kind of a downer when getting round to ordering new glasses: "I'd like to get the RX4246V please" or "the SPR 56S". Geez, even typing that felt like accounting. Wouldn't it be added value to the consumer's experience to have more relevant and memorable product names to recite with enthusiasm at checkout? That's why we decided to rechristen some of our favourite designer eyewear from this season. You're welcome.

» If you can't live life with a bare face, you'll know that any beauty queen needs two sets of makeup at any given time: one extensive collection permanently mounted on the vanity and the spark-note version that can fit inside a cute little makeup purse.

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.

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.

Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 20/01/2017
» Resolutions, smesolutions, am I right? Do you find yourself setting them superficially year after year, only to carry them on to the next one? Or not even bother anymore? At the same time, you know goals are essential to achievements. So maybe what we all need is to have a real and open exchange about them.

Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 16/09/2016
» Attention all shoppers! It's time to talk about etiquette because that's as much a part of style as the clothes you wear. Specifically, we want to discuss shopping etiquette in places where service is a high-context interaction between sales assistant and customer: luxury boutiques. We've decided to put in words the major unspoken rules of shopping at a luxury stores, whether it's a brand for watches, clothes, jewellery or accessories. Even if luxury isn't your scene, many of these tips can definitely be applied in any kind of retailer. Remember, good manners can always be appreciated, and having a good rep with a store and its staff is always an asset.
