Power Girl: A Girl Who Loves Men with Power?

According to Dictionary.com, a modelizer is a person who is obsessed with and attempts to date only models. How about a girl who attempts to date only the sons of the politicians? What do we call her?

After being separated for months, this actress and her husband who is a son of a politician finally broke their silence and confirmed that their marriage was in rocky territory. The alleged reason for their separation was domestic violence but the husband has denied it repeatedly. Anyway, this story has no intention to delve into the reason of their separation since some of you might not even be interested. What you might be interested to know is that this newly separated actress is rumored to be dating the son of another politician. It is not clear whether they are already committed to each other or not, but they have been seeing each other on a regular basis. 

Do you know who is this actress? Going back to my original question, what do we call a girl who only prefers to date the sons of the politicians? Any suggestions?

Modern China Collection

I have a penchant for any piece of fashion accessory that is oriental inspired. This is why I immediately fell in love with these Longevity Bangles from Vida Lim's Modern China Collection when I laid eyes on them. For some reason though, the design looks more Korean than Chinese to me. It is as if I am looking at Korean characters when I stare at the design. Well, whatever it is, I am loving it!

 According to Vida's Facebook page, each adjustable bangle is made of leather and brass dipped in 24K gold. Priced at 7,950 Php each, they are available in three bright summer colors: aqua, fuchsia and orange. Which color do you like most? For inquiries and orders, please send your emails to vidajewelries@gmail.com.

Maybe we can try our luck and request Vida to give one of these oriental chic bangles to a lucky Fashion PULIS reader? If this is the case, then I need to come up with a contest soon. Would you want one? What do you think?

From Jewelry to Minaudieres

After finishing her degree in interior design from PSID and DLSU-College of St. Benilde, Vida Tan-Lim realized that interior design is not her cup of tea.  She could not stand the dusts in the job sites.  This made her shift  to jewelry design, her real passion.  Vida's jewelry pieces have been spotted on many celebrities and featured on many lifestyle magazines.

For her latest collection, Vida ventured into minaudieres (small ornamental case) .  Here are some of her latest designs:
