Doodling dreams
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 19/08/2016
» In the wake of news about a certain multinational corporation shamelessly stealing intellectual property from independent designers who weren't "big enough" to matter, we were reminded of why it's important to give artists our backing. So, we scoured the streets -- or more so the digital lanes of Facebook and Instagram -- for local imaginations worth following and getting to know. The result is an eclectic pick of illustrators and designers we think could very well be the next Jeepjeep, Wisut or Sundae Kids.

"Dress Nice"
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 26/08/2016
» Perhaps some of you can relate: you know what casual looks like, you know what formal looks like, and let's be real, you know what smart-casual is too. But these categories of clothes clearly don't cover the spectrum of outfits you need as an active member of urban society. Specifically, it's that gap between smart-casual and formal we're referring to. How do you go from your nine-to-five to an "oh it's no big deal, but Woonsen and Chompoo will probably be there" kind of event? When you think about it, the obscurity makes the situation more stressful than an unmistakable black tie dress code.

Street dining made easy
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 26/08/2016
» <b>The Setting:</b> Remember the Weasley's deceptively roomy accommodation for the Quidditch World Cup in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire? That was the image that popped into mind when we crossed the threshold of The Local Canteen. From its humble storefront in a pint-sized soi, you'd never imagine to find beyond the doorway, a skylit tunnel that seats nearly 70 diners.

Jona and the Waffles
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 05/08/2016
» The Commons isn't only good for the drinks and savoury bites at its downstairs canteen. It's also good for when you're craving waffles, because we know damn well you're more likely to get dressed and be seen at the Commons than get out that unused waffle iron you have at home.

Modern natives
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 12/08/2016
» In Japan, a young person dressed in full traditional kimono in the big city on a regular day is no spectacle. Nor does there need to be a special occasion in India or Bangladesh to don a vibrant saree. So why in a country that far from lacks traditional culture and a city that loves fashion, have we shied away from the beauty and uniqueness of Thai fabrics and traditional style? I mean when was the last time you wore a proper pha nung or chong kraben?

Skwad goals
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 19/08/2016
» Despite the number of athletic jackets already hanging in your closet, from Harley to Diablo to even Captain effin' Boomerang, the character costumes in the latest David Ayer-DC blockbuster made you want more. It's no help either that globally in fashion, this is the season for jackets. Our advice? Just give into the urge. It's not like they can't be put to practical use. Remember, movie theatres and malls here are freezing.

Mad burgers
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 19/08/2016
» In passing, you may mistake Street Mad for just another generic burger stand trying to emulate Murican fast food as authentically as possible. However, a good look at the menu and a little bit of insider knowledge will reveal this street burger brand's charm and sophistication.

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.

The Rustic Man
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 01/07/2016
» We all have that friend, colleague, family member or beau perhaps who seems to wear the exact same thing day in and day out. (Or maybe this is you!) Whether you approve of his monotony of style or not, you have to admit that his outfits make the most out of practicality, probably sit on that coveted cusp of appropriate and hella comfortable and, most importantly, are integral to his presence. Let's not try to change what's already perfect, people, but offer our "shirt and jeans" kinda guy discreet options for a wardrobe update onlookers may not notice but he certainly will. After all, that's all that really matters.
