The "Boy In The Green Scarf"

This reminds me of the movie Confessions of a Shopaholic, where Rebbecca Bloomwood is "The Girl In The Green Scarf". *Sigh* I love scarves, especially when they take all the attention, this guy kept it simple, but the scarf adds something different to the look. Love it.

Lets Flirt with The iPad.




Apple iPad 64GB WiFi 3G
Description:
A large, high-resolution LED-backlit IPS display. An incredibly responsive Multi-Touch screen. And an amazingly powerful Apple-designed chip. All in a design that’s thin and light enough to take anywhere. iPad isn’t just the best device of its kind. It’s a whole new kind of device.
LED-Backlit IPS Display
The high-resolution, 9.7-inch LED-backlit IPS display on iPad is remarkably crisp and vivid. Which makes it perfect for web browsing, watching movies or viewing photos. With iPad, there is no up or down. It’s designed to show off your content in portrait or landscape orientation with every turn. And because it uses a display technology called IPS (in-plane switching), it has a wide, 178 ° viewing angle. So you can hold it almost any way you want and still get a brilliant picture, with excellent colour and contrast.
Multi-Touch
The Multi-Touch screen on iPad is based on the same revolutionary technology on iPhone. But the technology has been completely reengineered for the larger iPad surface, making it extremely precise and responsive. So whether you’re zooming in on a map, flicking through your photos or deleting an email, iPad responds with incredible accuracy. And it does just what you want it to.
Thin and Light
One of the first things you’ll notice about iPad is how thin and light it is. The screen is 9.7 inches measured diagonally. So overall, it’s slightly smaller than a magazine. At just 0.68 kg (1.5 lbs) and 13.4 mm (0.5 inches) thin,1 you can use it anywhere. And a slight curve to the back makes it easy to pick up and comfortable to hold.
Up to 10 Hours of Battery Life
To maximise battery life, Apple engineers took the same lithium polymer battery technology they developed for Mac notebook computers and applied it to the iPad. As a result, you can use iPad for up to 10 hours while surfing the web on Wi-Fi, watching videos or listening to music.
Performance
The A4 chip inside iPad was custom-designed by Apple engineers to be extremely powerful yet extremely power efficient. The performance is unlike anything you’ve ever seen on a touch-based device. Which makes iPad fantastic for everything from productivity apps to games. At the same time, the A4 chip is so power efficient that it helps iPad get up to 10 hours of battery life on a single charge. And iPad is available with a choice of 16GB, 32GB or 64GB of flash storage,4 giving you lots of room for your photos, movies, music, apps and more.
Connectivity
The dock connector port on the bottom of iPad allows you to dock and charge it. It also lets you connect to accessories like the iPad Camera Connection Kit and the iPad Keyboard Dock. You’ll find many accessories designed to be compatible with the dock connector port.
Audio
The powerful built-in speaker produces rich, full sound, perfect for watching a movie or listening to music. iPad also comes with a headphone jack and a built-in microphone.

What's in the box:
    *  iPad
    * Dock Connector to USB Cable
    * 10W USB Power Adapter
    * SIM eject tool

Dolce and Gabbana accused of one-billion-euro fraud: report

What are the odds… on Friday –see below or click on older posts – I had a piece about the most inspiring duo in fashion, today I find out they are involved in fraud. What do I do? Do I start hating them, send them mail, or do I look for inspiration elsewhere?
 One thing remains though. They are very creative in everything they do. I still admire their hard work, determination and level of excellence. The fact that they inspire me won’t suddenly evaporate over this story. This to me does not change who they are and what they do. I am very sad, but I still look up to them. They are human after all, and no one is perfect (at some point I thought they are), good people do bad things sometimes, that doesn’t mean they are bad people. Tax fraud is a serious offence, but I’ll stand by the boys until it all blows over. They need my support.

The Dolce & Gabbana POP-UP Book




I love Dolce and Gabbana.They are such an inspiration to me, have been for a long time now, I even started "stalking them" with with e-mails at some point, at least now I do get some feed back on some of their latest ventures. Domenico and Stefano never seize to amaze us with their creative minds, from the stunning creations, the great and informative magazine "Swide"  to the launch of their Gold Restaurant. These guys always have something up their sleeves. to prove I'm not alone in this D&G craze, Sean Haikal created a Dolce & Gabbana POP-UP book. Sean paid tribute to the brand’s DNA via a film noir look & feel, the 3D graphic story is framed in black thick paper. Sean knows the brand very well and features most of his favourite campaigns. Follow Sean Haikal as he unveils the inside of his very own D&G archives.



...and now this is my all time favourite Dolce and Gabbana logo
