The Emperor's New Clothes

-
At Salabiance, One Utama, I caught sight of a middle-aged aunty trying on a new dress. Polka-dotted with a flowery sash. And best of all, it had a big flare with some kind of underwire and lace at the hem. She was a petite woman and that dress managed to make her look like a blimp. It's magic! Doubtful at first, but after looking at herself in the mirror and getting more convincing comments from the saleswoman (she can really lie through her teeth), she bought it in the end. Such a scene repeats at the many hundreds of retail outlets in malls across the country. I for one don't need to buy any new clothes this year. It's a blessing really not needing to frantically join the shopping rush. Sitting in my wardrobe are several surviving new articles of clothing from 2010. A couple of T-shirts, one short sleeve shirt, one long sleeve shirt, one tank top and countless briefs and trunks (goes without saying kan?). The only thing lacking is shorts I guess. Nothing in red too. But then, I don't really need to buy any more clothes.

How was your pre-CNY shopping experience?

For peeps like me with unworn clothes in the cupboard, buying just for CNY is a sin.

@Danny:
i agree with your approach. And at least there is something to choose from rather than red, red & red!

@Grat:
Then kenalah clear stock!

@Beng2:

Not much to answer your query but pre-Diwali shopping at Little Indian reminds me of such scenes; some aunties will choose the brightest pink (or orange, or red, or green) Punjabi suits, poorly matched pants, glittery sequins and all!!!

@Hdaran:
I have noticed that many aunties like to wear colours that are not flattering.

Kensei

Been a long time since I wrote about Japanese GV actors. There's this one guy called Kensei (for COAT ) who looks really cute in my opinion. Has an angular face with cute eyes. Also a sunny smile with a gap tooth, though it's rare. And he has a nice physique ( nice pecs, abs, thighs, not overly-developed ) that is coupled with a tanned complexion ( I don't need my boys to be tanned, but I'm sure many out there like that kinda thing ). Very sporty. Looks great in Speedos and track suits. Really can carry off the athlete look. Perfect with the exception of his package-- not so well-endowed compared to his peers in the industry. I'm not a size queen, so I don't mind. Overall, a handsome fella. On his 'acting skills', he's not exactly expressive ( think Keanu Reeves ), but of course I can overlook that. One of the titles puts his statistics as 188 cm, 78 kg, and 18 years old. Not too sure about the age. Think that's fabricated. I've seen h

Osamu or Naoya?

There's a GV actor from KO-Video that I have my eyes on with the name OSAMU AMAGASA ( a 20 year old with an athletic body ). If I'm not mistaken, he later signed with Coat as TAIIKUKAI SEIHA NAOYA . Also seen him with Coat. From what I've seen, he's a versatile fella with a hefty package. But I really like to seem him on the receiving end cause he OBVIOUSLY enjoys it when he is filled. Really sexy to see. In Coat's "Get Athlete Conquest - Naoya", I loved seeing him bobbing up and down while taking it like a canine. Such a turn on especially when the other guy services him at the same time. Also saw his performance in KO-Surprise!'s "Just Do It!" where he was paired with the twinky Asuka Aizawa. Loved his moans while he was being explored. He has appeared in other newer videos but they have yet to appear in torrents. I'll be keeping a look out!

Coat West Star II: Sho

This is a follow up post from my Nagi post. Sho is another favorite of GV producerr COAT WEST. I usually see him as a top but on rare occassions, he could be seen penetrated by Nagi and Hikaru. What's hotter than seeing a hunk being on the receiving end once in a while? His body is never very defined, but he is definitely sexy. Kinda like Johan Paulik of Bel Ami fame. SHO Name: sho Name：Sho（翔） Height：180cm Weight：70kg Age：21 (during Sho Only Shining Star) Birth date：Unknown (1985) There is no girlfriend: Now there are ... ...
