정화 언니는 너무 MARVELOUS이다! 뭐냐면:

1 놀라운, 믿기 어려운, 신기한, 기묘한, 기적적인, 초자연적인
2 《구어》 훌륭한, 우수한
3 [the marvelous;명사적;단수 취급] 괴이(怪異), 거짓말 같은 사건

원래 레오파드프린트를 안좋아하는 편인데 정화씨는 너무…와우! 점화씨는 약탈자이면 내가 약탈품 하겠다! 으르롱! 아야! 아파도 좋아! ㅋㅋㅋ

That’s the hottest-looking predator I’ve seen in Korea! Still, I thought there were no leopards in Korea; but if Uhm Jung-hwa’s decided to be one, then I’ll be prey any day! Rowwwrrr! Looking GOOD!

정화: 이뻐졌지?

귀거리: 우리 덕분에 눈에 띈 거잖아. 가짜 뒷가발머리도

정화: ! 씨그러워!
Uhm Jeong-hwa is launching her new lingerie brand “Zuhm in New York” and looking quite fabulous in the process.

[From Newsen]

섹시 이미지의 선두주자인 만능 엔터테이너 엄정화가 24일 오후 서울 강남구 신사동 비스트로 디(bistro D)에서 코웰 패션주식회사와 함께 패션 란제리 브랜드 ‘Zuhm in New York’과 ‘Corner Suite’ 런칭 기자회견을 열었다.

밈국의 Saturday Night Live이란 개그 콘서트처럼 (사실 쇼가 미국에 70년대 붕반부터 했으니까 이렇게 비교하면 안되는데) 여러 재밌는 나온 캐릭터들둥에 아주 패션어블 미남 플레이보이 “퍼난도 라마스”에 의하면 - “You look MARVELOUS!”

Remember – “You look MARVELOUS!” Even Fernando Lamas says so.
Hehe.

When you’re in the subway…on the bus…in front of your office computer…or just bored at home…

Join us as we escape your world with the help of our podcast and your MP3 player. Just put on the track, close your eyes, and leave your world for just about 10 minutes.

This time we take a trip to a street stand late at night on the streets of Seoul, where they serve spicy rice cakes and “blood sausage.” Yum!

From JOINS:

신혼의 단꿈에 빠진 신부 염정아가 파격적인 봉춤으로 탁재훈을 강력히 유혹했다.

염정아는 영화 생애 최악의 남자’(감독 손현희/제작 CK픽쳐스)에서 캣우먼을 연상시키는 검은 가죽 의상과 아찔한 하이힐, 섹시 망사 스타킹으로 무관심한 남편 탁재훈을 향해 섹시한 유혹의 댄스를 선보였다.

Actress Yeom Jeong-ah gets down and almost dirty in this trailer about a newlywed woman trying to seduce her unattentive husband. The JOINS article quotes her saying, “It was hard to keep up with the concept, which was dancing badly for several hours in high heels.” In the trailer, you’ll see the husband’s humorous and humiliating reaction.

It’s nice to see these high-concept commercials, which are funny, creative, and take a few risks, rather than just recycle stale ideas and old gags. For our favorite so far, click here.

실제로 현대무용을 배우 춤에는 일가견이 있는 염정아는 엉성하게 춤을 춰야 하는 콘셉트에하이힐을 신고 시간 동안 춤을 못추는 흉내를 내야 힘들었다 고백했다.

완벽한 호흡의 코믹 봉춤은 30 개봉되는 생애 최악의 남자에서 확인할 있다.

또 재밌는 ‘high concept’ 광고가 나온 거네요. 아주 웃기고 창조적이며 진부한 맨날 봤던 테마로 나온 거예요. 지끔까지 제일 사랑스럽게 보는 그런 하이컨셉 광고가 뭐냐 궁금하시면 클릭하시죠!

From Sports Seoul:

길을 걷다보면 심심찮게 있는 문양이 있다. 그것은 여성들이 들고 다니는 핸드백에 촘촘히 찍혀 있는 것으로 알파벳 ‘LV’ 겹쳐져 있는 문양. 이는 명품의 대표주자루이비통 트레이드마크로 명품을 선호하는 여성들을 설레게 하는 문양 하나다. 명품 중에서도 고가를 자랑하는 핸드백을 쉽게 맞닥뜨릴 있게 주요 원인은 이미테이션제품이 넘쳐나는 탓이다. 어느 명품브랜드든짝퉁 있게 마련이지만 루이비통의 경우는 정도가 심각한 수준. 그만큼 수요가 높아서다. 이로 인해 루이비통 제품이 거리를 가득 메우면서 명품이라면 필수적으로 갖춰야 희소성 차츰 떨어지고 있다.

Simply put, there are a lot of fake, fake, fake bags on the streets of Korea. I mean, fake. Faker than a $12 dollar bill, as they say. For anyone with a keen eye on the streets, though, this isn’t news. And for the last couple years, the king of fake bags goes to Louis Vuitton’s “Monogram” series, and man, did it win by a large margin. Because the fakery is just so obvious, and just so many of ‘em!

Different shades and colors of bag. Backwards LV logos. Wrong handles and materials. Whew.

맞아맞아. 사실 이런 가방들이 너무 많아서 정품을 사아 느낌이 없어진 것같네요:

얼마 언론사는 인터넷에서 판매하는 루이비통 제품의 99% 짝퉁이라는 보도를 있다. 기사에 많은 인터넷 판매자들이 반발을 하고 나섰지만 이는 부인할 없는 공공연한 사실이다.

심지어 백화점에 납품되는 명품 중에도 가짜가 있다고 하니 인터넷이란 경로를 통한 제품의 신뢰도는 떨어질 밖에 없다.

인터넷 뿐만 아니라 이태원시장, 동대문상가 등에 가면 손쉽게 가짜 루이비통 제품을 있다. 이태원에서 짝퉁명품가방을 전문으로 취급하는 상인은많은 가짜명품을 팔고 있지만 주로 찾는 제품은 루이비통 제품이라고 말한다. 상인은방금 전에도 손님이 루이비통 가방을 찾았는데 인기제품이라 제고가 없어 예약을 하고 상태라며 자랑삼아 이야기하기도 했다. [ 읽으려면 클릭하세요.]

There’s nothing wrong with a “fake” if that’s what you want; but if it’s so obvious, why even bother? Especially with a bag that is so popular, even everyday people are bound to know it’s not real?

근대 누구나 다 아는 그 가짜 루이비통 가방으로 해야 되나? 밑에 가방은 비비엔웨스트우드의 가방인 것같은데도 사실 잘 모르겠고 그리고 큰 상관 없잖아요. 흔한 거아니라서 전문가의 입장에서 딱 보면 알아도 이 가방은 그렇게 다 들고다니는 것아니라서 가짜라도 모르지. 진짜라도 모르고.

근데 상관있나요? 이런 경우에서는 이쁘면 되는 거아닌가?

Here’s one that looks like a Vivienne Westwood, and I don’t know whether it’s real or not, partially because it isn’t so common that you can just tell right away by a mental comparison to a real one. And it looks alright, and the lady in the picture’s successfully rockin’ it.

Img 0252 Copy

She’s got the style, the mod haircut (sorry I had to cut it off here), the even more mod tube minidress, and the shoes to match. The bag adds a splash of color against a background that she meant to highlight the bag. It’s not my style, but it still works. Here are some domestic, non-designer bags that frankly think look much better than the designer stuff that’s supposed to be impressing somebody.

Img 9979 CopyImg 0153 Copy

Img 9793 CopyImg 4944 Copy

Img 3279 Copy-1

They’re all working it – looks nice, looks classy. So is the lady going casual at the bottom – the pink and white repetition is pleasant and not too much.

So really – would you rather have a bad fake bag, the one that everyone has or wants and is going to also know is fake – or wouldn’t you just rather have a nice-looking bag that goes with your personality and what you’re wearing? Personally, I’d choose the latter. Because just because you have the bag – even if it was real – it still doesn’t mean the bag goes with everything.

Img 8761 CopyImg 3135 Copy

In a way, I tend to think that if people are so mismatched, but really, really wanted to show off their bag for some reason – then maybe it’s real. (Even if neither one of the ones in the picture above is.)

In a way, I have more respect for the girl who decides to get a bag that’s not even trying to be “fake” but just trying to emulate the style of the famous bag without actually trying to be that bag. You can buy it for $10 and kinda look the look, and no one’s even trying to see if it’s fake – you’re just brave enough to know it and wear the bag anyway.

Img 2971 Copy

Oh, yeah! Not even trying to be a fake Louis Vuitton – it’s just got the same color scheme and shape, but didn’t even bother with the logos. Now, that is simply ghetto fabulous. Love it!

The Korean media’s been reporting on the major losses incurred from the ubiquity of fake bags on the street, and the high quality of fake gear; and I believe the hype:

Picture 4-7

루이비통. 에르메스, 샤넬과 함께 명품중의 명품으로 꼽히는 대표적 브랜드다. 특히 아시아에서 인기가 높은 루이비통은짝퉁 많기로도 유명하다. 로고가 촘촘히 새겨져 있어 누가 봐도 쉽게 알아볼 있는 루이비통은 명품임을 드러내고 싶어하는 심리를 업고 단연 최고 인기를 누리고 있다.

웬만한 루이비통백은 100만원이 넘는 고가 제품이지만 길거리에 다녀보면 루이비통백을 여자들이 꼬리에 꼬리를 문다.

진짜보다 가짜가 많다고들 얘기한다. 눈에 짝퉁 티가 나는 루이비통백이야 문제가 안되지만 ‘A 짝퉁 활개를 치고 있는 요즘 시대에 가짜를 판별하는 하늘의 별따기다

…지난해 관세청이 적발한 위조상품은 1010건으로 26668억원 어치에 달했다. 올해 상반기에는 480(1978억원) 적발됐다.

구찌ㆍ루이비통ㆍ샤넬 명품 짝퉁이 476 1966억원으로 대부분을 차지했다. 품목별로는 시계류(770억원) 가장 많았고 의류(679억원), 핸드백ㆍ가죽제품(292억원), 신발(137억원) 등이 뒤를 이었다. ‘짝퉁천국이라는 오명을 중국에서 들어온 제품이 80% 이른다.

짝퉁이 갈수록 판을 치자 관세청은 지난달말위조상품 비교전시회 개최, 50여개 브랜드의 짝퉁과 진품 1000여점을 전시하는 대규모 행사를 열었다. 짝퉁의 폐해를 알려 소비자 피해를 막기 위해서다. [ 읽으려면 클릭하세요.]

Yet, my question is – so where are these high-quality fake bags? OK – they’re everywhere – I’m just being facetious. Yet, it seems that I haven’t come across too many with my camera, and seem to get the really bad fakes; well, I guess those are the ones you notice first.

Here’s a real one – I think:

Img 2297 Copy

Img 2282 CopyImg 2284 Copy

The color, design, and “feel” looks right. She looks like an uptown girl in an “uptown” place; but then again – these days, how can you tell? And as the old saying goes: “If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and talks like a duck…”

Well, that’s all that really matters, right?

What is FASHION?

"패션은 옷과 함께 하는 것만은 아니에요...하늘에도, 길에도 패션은 있고, 패션은 우리의 생각과 삶의 방식, 주변에서 일어나는 일들과도 함께해야만 해요."

"Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening."

--- Coco Chanel (1883–1971)

What is STYLE?

"패션은 희미해지지만 스타일은 영원하다."

"Fashions fade, style is eternal.”

--- Yves Saint Laurent (b. 1936)






What is SEXY?

"있잖아..다리가 아름다운건 아니야...단지 그걸 어떻게 해야 하는지를 아는거야."

"Darling, the legs aren't so beautiful, I just know what to do with them."

--- Marlene Dietrich (1901–1992)











What is TALENT?

"내가 연기할 수 없을 때, 난 연기를 해야 했고, 노래할 수 없을 때, 난 '익살스런 얼굴'을 노래해야 했다. 또, 난 Fred Astaire와 함께 춤을 춰야 했었는데, 그때는 춤을 출 수 있는 상황이 아니었다. 그러니까 내가 준비되지 않았을 때 난 이 모든것을 해야 했던 것이다. 그때 난 정말 미친듯이 이 난국을 타개하기 위해 노력했다."

"I was asked to act when I couldn't act. I was asked to sing 'Funny Face' when I couldn't sing, and dance with Fred Astaire when I couldn't dance - and do all kinds of things I wasn't prepared for. Then I tried like mad to cope with it.”

---Audrey Hepburn (1929-1993)
