H&M boxers and jeans post

The weather in San Francisco last weekend was fairly nice compared to last few visits I made in the city. I went to H&M in Union Square on Saturday and found these cool character-themed boxer briefs. Hulk, Superman, Ironman or even Mickey Mouse - they have lots of designs for you to choose from.


How do you find this jeans-inspired boxer brief? :)

I ended up purchasing one that has my favorite marvel character on it. Also, bought these surprisingly cheap but very much comfortable jeans.

harem jeans for $10 bucks (originally 39.95)

Black Super Slim fit (77%cotton, 21%polyester, 2%elastane) for $19.95

I came for a trip to SanFo to visit a friend and it was a great weekend overall (not to mention, SF Giants won the playoffs againts Phillies! ;). Hope everyone is safe and sound...

Lad mag GQ is making a buzz with its sexy "Glee"-themed November cover. The photo featuring three stars of the hit tv series Cory Monteith, Lea Michele and Dianna Agron in a scantily clad bootylicious embrace. After hitting the web, the photos stirred controversies and backlash led by Parents Television CouncilSome had raised concerns over the photos' appropriateness as the stars involved are playing high school students in the said show.


One thing I know for sure is clear, Glee will gain more viewership - courtesy of the G'lee'Qs department.

Hangover 2 is on the works but Stu's stripper-wife is out!



We all know that the first part was really successful and a surprise box-office smash. Well, Hangover 2, the sequel to one of my favorite comedies ever (and sure you do too) is beginning production, with a scheduled  release for May 2011. Unfortunately, Heather Graham will not be back in the film to reprise her stripper-wife role Jade. 
I will join any online protest out there to make her character back in the sequel. Any takers?


While Heather Graham will not be back, there is a new big name added to the cast, and that is no other than....(drum rooooooolllllllll...)....
