Anne Curtis has gone a long way from her teenybopper days back when she entered show business in 1997. Over the years, she has transformed from being a fresh-faced ingénue into one of the most influential celebrities in the local entertainment scene.
When PEP.ph asked if her continuous reinvention was something she had planned, she said that the evolution of her image was a natural process.
“There’s not really a conscious effort but I think as you age, it just comes naturally and I’m happy that all my fans and followers, they accept whatever change I make, or how I aged, throughout the show business,” she was quoted as saying. “And you know it’s never been a perfect Anne, it’s never a perfect metamorphosis of changing and making mistakes. It was like a

Sneakers and denim enthusiasts may appreciate this exciting release. For spring-summer 2013, Denham, the Dutch jeansmaker teams up with the Italian from Buttero and 14oz store in Berlin to create a limited version of their Tanino sneaker. For the occasion the model is dressed up with 14 oz ring spun selvedge denim woven in Italy and put on high quality stitched rubber soles, still from Italy. However the Tanino keeps the ingredients that made its succes: a plain leather cap toe this time coming in a contrasting white. The shoes also features selvedge details and a plain leather yoke on the heel. They come with two pairs of laces: one leather made and a second in basic cotton, off-white colored. Inside is a removeable leather sole embossed with all logos.

If you’re wanting to really make a statement then try a zebra print shirt for an edgy and bold look.
Peacock feather
Even though these beautiful feathers come from male peacocks and the female peacock it seems unfairly gets stuck with dark grey colors, we think the male peacock feather print is a beautiful and very feminine look. A

You can’t have a conversation in Vancouver about eco fashion without ending talking about Myriam Laroche. Vancouver hasn’t had the best fashion reputation over the years, and Vancouverite style was synonymous with fleece sweaters, rain coats and yoga pants. However, in the past few years a dramatically increasing number of markets, pop-up shops and local retailers have brought mainstream attention to local and eco designers. Vancouver’s Eco Fashion Week, the event created by Myriam Laroche, is working to change the face of the fashion landscape in more ways than just style.

Eco Fashion Week resembles any other major fashion week, with a certain amount of glitz and glamour, hot models and sexy runways, but it’s what is behind the scenes that sets it apart. Designe
