Hearts and friendships
Life, Parisa Pichitmarn, Published on 04/11/2016
» A Karan Johar film usually offers promises of glamorous locales, impossibly beautiful leads, cameos of his A-list buddies, over-the-top songs and what is supposed to be an atomic bomb of feel-goodism. He doesn't let you down within the departments of the first four, but Ae Dil Hai Mushkil (The Heart Is Complicated) is unlikely to stay with you the way his previous decade-defining works have. It's not as tear-jerking or heartwarming, but still does offer a great soundtrack that will cling to your mind unlike its messy plot. (Try keeping the waterworks in when Channa Mereya comes on. You won't.)

Tomorrowland magic short-lived
Life, Parisa Pichitmarn, Published on 22/05/2015
» Overbearing social activists, environmentalists and vegans on my Facebook newsfeed can probably instil a message more original — and even inspiring — than what this 129-minute sci-fi romp can. Tomorrowland is a dystopian flick stuck in limbo, masquerading as a wondrous flight but is, in truth, a preachy bore.

Cream of the newest crop

» 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.

New looks
Muse, Parisa Pichitmarn, Published on 08/10/2016
» Last month, Fashion Field Trip returned for the sixth year to showcase their autumn/winter collections. Held at Sathon's event hot spot Bangkok CityCity Gallery, this year's shows are not the mega-spectacle they usually are, with at most 150 spectators at each show. Still, shows should always be about the clothes, and it's relevant that Vickteerut, Issue and Asava all thought it was appropriate to scale down and return to their roots. In this digital age, it's easy to drift away from the fact that the purpose of shows has always been for press, buyers and VVVIPs of the brand -- not, you know, everyone who owns a smartphone.
