Metrosexual

ladies, what if your boyfriend costs more body treatments than you?

HAIR Don't think of it as another dang thing to wash, think of it as your crowning achievement. A top stylist can match your looks with your locks, and tell you how to maintain order between oil changes.
  • Haircut with highlights $200
  • Hair wax from Gatsby $7

EYES The mirrors of the soul can flash mixed signals. Make sure yours say, "I'm youthful, detail-oriented, and have two perfectly symmetrical eyebrows."

  • Moisturizing treatment to reduce puffiness and crow's feet $60
  • Eyebrow trimming kit from Shiseido $13


FACE Because death masks tend to startle the living, you'll make a better impression if you minimize the damage caused by years of neglect and overexposure to the elements. Do we have to say it again? Cleanse, exfoliate, hydrate. And if that doesn't work, spackle over intransigent defects and surprise eruptions with foundation or concealer.

  • One-hour facial $95
  • Hydrating lotion by Shiseido Men $26
  • Foundation by Somang $16


BACK Hey, hey, we're not monkees! Have those hairy, overgrown grounds on your pecs and delts "manscaped."

  • Hair removal $60

CLOTHES Not since disco days have men had so much sartorial leeway. Skim fashion mags for ideas, seek out a personal shopper, but stay within your comfort zone. Clothes are supposed to make you feel confident, not embarrassed.

  • Leather wolf-fur jacket by Versace $6,147
  • Silk patterned shirt by Versace $643
  • Mock croc belt by Versace $203
  • Zipper pants by Versace $779

HANDS A German once said that "God is in the details."He probably had pristine cuticles.

  • Manicure $50

ACCESSORIES An outfit without bling is like a Mercedes without a hood ornament.

  • Silver necklace and rings $140

FEET Women judge men by their shoes, which seems shortsighted (why are they looking down there, anyway?). But if you are a wingtips-on-workdays, sneakers-on-weekends guy, you are, in fact, boring. Step out in something new. And keep those toenails from protruding!

  • Mid-calf boots from Gucci $702
  • Pedicure $65

GRAND TOTAL: $9,206 (thank you very much..!)

I prefer my man to be slightly barbaric so people could distinguish who the lady of the house is!

Muntok - Old Lady with Trace of Beauty and Charm part 2

Walk the City, then you will get the soul… ...and you may find more hidden beneath... Filled with otak-otak and es kacang, we continued our walk around Old Muntok. Few houses from Petak 15, there is a weird signboard : " Lorong Babi" . We laugh at the funny words in the beginning and follow the direction it shows. We found a newly built kiosk in a dead-end narrow alley. In there, 3 men are selling pork. They were smiling and told us to come in. I asked them if this place is new and they approve. "We are moved here when they (the government) move the old market to the new one across the river" I could see the new market from their stall…across the river. All of you are not joining the others to the new market? "No, this is the location for us" I didn't ask further. It is clear to me. Johannes Widodo, our Keynote Speaker, coined "Meeting Pot" for Muntok. According to him, differences for centuries manage to live side by side in

Muntok - Old Lady with Trace of Beauty and Charm part 01

My trip to Muntok is made possible by mAAN. This year the design workshop subject is Mentok (or Muntok) a Tin Mining City. Some background of the workshop can be found in mAAN Mentok Tin Mining City Design Workshop official website . Muntok's golden moment was back in 18th century until the day of New Order, where national development was centralized in Java. Similar to other places outside Jawa, Muntok losing its importance, despite its richness as on of Tin mines in Bangka Island. Yesterday I didn't manage to walk around the city much. Yet, thru stories from Brain Team we can quickly assume the city loses it's main energy: Youth. *it will be really nice to have more facts from detailed demography statistic data...I will post it as soon as we get the data. Before discuss further on this assumption, I should underline that Muntok has important role in Indonesia Tin Mining Industry. Tin Mining sector considers as the largest contributor for this city income. With t
