A few weeks ago we posted up a video of an interview we did with the gorgeous Lisa S, this week we bring you another installment of MODELtalk featuring Ana R. Check out the video as she talks about her discovery on "Malaysian timing", loving brands in Malaysia that are unavailable in Hong Kong, and who she'd love to be clad head to toe in. Make up included.
If ever the casting agent from Victoria's Secret wants to use an Asian model as one of their angels, I'd love to see our own Angie Ng wearing those OTT-and-to-die-for wings. Currently completing her Degree in Law in London and signed with modeling agency Bookings Models, Angie's prime location is her chance at making a mark in the international modeling scene.
We're sure you've see the new section called MPOV - Model's Point of View a few blogs posts below well, we've got another dose of model goodness for you. Tongue in Chic's Managing Editor, Joyce Wong sits down with model turned Channel [V] host, Lisa S for a quick chat. Video credit: Didi Ramlan.
Malaysian brand VARIANTE may have been around since 2005, but it just celebrated the official launch of its Pavilion store this month. VARIANTE, meaning "variations" in Italian, was started by Leslie Variyan who formerly headed Isetan Women's in-house labels. "Cultivation" and "Crescendo" are a couple of brands that were under his creation and direction during his tenure there.
There seems to be a whole bunch of sales kicking off from tomorrow onwards. Just got this in our inbox - shoe and accessory brand Charles & Keith will be starting their End of Season Sale tomorrow (till 11th Jan) with discounts up to 50%. And I just bought a pair last week. Figures!
For 3 days only, perky lingerie brand La Senza will be offering 20% discount off all their regular priced merchandise. A good opportunity to buy some interesting underwear for your girl friends or partner for Christmas, perhaps?

You may not know this lanky and fierce model by her birth name - Aberami Jaishana (standing for Aberami the Hindu Goddess who is attractive at all times, and Jai means victory) - but how about Jay from reality TV show Malaysian Dreamgirl. That should ring a bell.
We found a site that is so neat that we are going to do what we do best - share it! Some of you might have heard of it - Alice Wonders. A month-old online shopping realm, TiC had an exclusive interview with Alice Wonders about its creators, the site, and their personal picks for this season!

If you suffer from a fashion fixation, Fashion Fetish, a new online store may just worsen your condition. With free shipping for purchases above RM250 (within West Malaysia), this online boutique is not for those looking for a respite from spending.
I hope you've read our post on the CHIC Code party happening this Sunday at Palate Palette! I know, it's quite insane the number of things happening to Tongue in Chic for November. I think we'd have to start an official calendar of events soon so you don't miss a thing!
Malaysian International Fashion Week is happening in 15 days! All the organisers and designers have been MIA in the scene of late. No doubt they're having sleepless nights putting the event and collections together, though I dare say some of them will be coming out to play at stylist Cris Yong's birthday party tomorrow night ;)
At long last, Apple's online store is now live in Malaysia! Allowing us to buy anything off the complete line of Macs and iPods, the site also puts the ability to purchase from a huge range of accessories at our fingertips. Personalised iPod engraving and Mac customisations are also available.
This weekend greets the start of a new month, and what's making it even more exciting is Tongue in Chic will be buzzing with activities and events in conjunction with a big campaign!
Guess who we're collaborating with? I'll tell you...
Kate Spade is best known for her handbags' strong signature style in modern shapes that aren't over the top to remain classic.

It's about time Kate Spade opened here!
