Cara Delevingne is The New Face For DKNY SS13 Campaign

Have you checked out the new ad campaign for DKNY's new Spring Summer 2013 collection? It's just awesome! I loved Dona Karan's new DKNY girl, the British beauty, Cara Delevingne. This top model has filled New York with life in her latest campaign photos.

The gorgeous model Delevinge has walked A-1 runways of top brands like Dolce & Gabbana, Chanel and Burberry. She has won the Model of the Year honour at British Fashion Awards 2012 and also named as 'London's 1,000 Most Influential of 2011' by Evening Standard

Dona has taken a youthful turn in her latest Spring Summer 2013 campaign and the new face of DKNY just shines in the ad campaign images, which were released on 19 December, 2012. Delevingne imparts a classic New Yorker girl on-the-go donning vibrant and colorful DKNY stuff.

The 20-year-old model complements the brand's signature city lifestyle perfectly, an excellent choice by Dona Karan. I loved the bright display of colors in DKNY SS13 campaign; her canary yellow maxi dress, brilliant red crossbody purse, candy pink headphones and vibrant blue windbreaker tied on her waist.

The visually arresting photos expressing whole of New York's energy were shot by the French fashion photographer, Patrick Demarchelier, on the cosmopolitan streets of Manhattan. This campaign features a lot of bold and sporty looks. I will surely include them in my wardrobe for the spring season.

Pastamania Extends its Delivery Hours To 3am

I recently visited Singapore on the invitation of my friends, who reside there. This is a beautiful country. I must say that I have become Pastamania's a huge fan. This eatery chain offers a full menu of affordable Italian favourites in a casual and quick-serve setting. I personally liked the eatery's wide range of pasta and pizza flavours.

The first Pastamania outlet was started in 1998 in Singapore. Now, it has expended to numerous other countries also, such as India, Malaysia, Kuwait, Dubai, Indonesia etc. I think that Pastamania is Singapore's probably one of the biggest Italian restaurant chain. As I am fond of Italian food, I visited Pastamania many times and enjoyed all the delicious dishes.

Earlier, Pastamania was providing 24-hour delivery service in the Eastern districts of Singapore. However, now the delivery hours will run from 10am to 3am in all districts. I think that this is indeed an excellent news for all those people, who like to enjoy late night movies in theatres or soccer fans returning home after watching a late night match. Now, all such people can enjoy pizza and pasta at any point of time.

What I fond most interesting is that sauce and paste are stored in separate deliver containers; thus, your pasta will not turn soggy by the time it reaches your doorstep. So, you can enjoy crisp and hot pizza. Smartphones users can download the Pastamania app for a tech-savvy delivery.

If you are the one, who love internet surfing, then you must have watched the latest viral music video, which came out of South Korea. The video includes the quirky Gangnam Style and is the creation of South Korean K-pop singer Park Jae Sang. He is also known as Psy. Much to the surprise of everyone, the video has not only gone viral in South Korea, but it went viral all over the world. Even the people of Singapore are seemingly infected with Gangnam Style fever.

The video has infected Singaporeans with its unusual choreography and catchy tune. It is known that since the video's debut on July 15, it has got more than 100 million views on YouTube till now. Nearly 3 months since its YouTube release, the hit song of South Korean rapper continues to inspire parody videos throughout the world including Singapore.

Like many people all over the world, I am also an admirer of Gucci handbags. I like the brand because of its excellence in fine Italian craftsmanship and resolute quality. I have 3-4 handbags of the brand; however, I have seen so many people carrying the same handbag. Gucci has come up with a solution to avoid this issue. The brands' Made to Order handbag program is the solution to this problem. The program ensures timeless, exquisite, and for the first time, customizable handbags.

Gucci's Made to Order handbag program is the brand's new service. The service allows you to select a Gucci legend and make it your own. I was delighted, when I first learnt about the program. Moreover, I recently came to know that Gucci has announced the extension of its Made to Order service in order to include the New Jackie and Stirrup bags, well-loved Gucci signatures, on top of the current New Bamboo bags. Gucci offers an option to customers, where they can choose from 3 various sizes for the New Bamboo bags, large, medium and small, and 2 sizes for the New Jackie bags, large and medium.

I think that is an exclusive service for all those people (like me), who do not hesitate to shell out a pretty dollar for uniqueness. The program enables you to order these bags in precious materials like ostrich and crocodile, as well as, choose from finishes (metallic, shiny or mat effects), metal details and hardware (in antique gold and silver or light gold and silver), along with the colour of the bag itself.
