Who is on Garage?

Guess who's on the cover of Garage's premiere issue!

O.K. Lame headline, sorry. Haha! Since my EIC, Rey, already used “What’s in Your Garage” as his title for the same blog entry, I have to reword mine as stated above.

Garage, newest style magazine for men, is hitting bookstores and newsstands this September. Watch out!

Garage is published by Sesame Seed Creatives, Inc. Other titles under SSCI include Wedding Essentials, SugarSugar, Fudge, and Imagine.

Though I’ve been itching to post the actual cover on all of our online accounts, I still have to wait for the entire magazine to be printed. Our website, garagethemag.com, is still under construction but the soonest it’s up, it’ll be a riot! For the meantime, add us up on Facebook and Multiply for updates.

Appy-polly-logies

Scenes from A Clockwork Orange

Stanley Kubrick’s A Clockwork Orange will always be close to heart. I’ve always dreamt of appearing as Alex DeLarge or any one of the droogs at some event, like a Halloween or any other fun, theme party (that’s not Hawaiian, or bohemian, etc. You get the point.)

Key ingredients: a painterly bonnet, white ensemble of long sleeves and pants, black lace-up army boots, suspenders, cane, and Shu Uemura faux lash on one eye. Though the to-wear list seems plain, I believe a proper event is necessary for this particular dream. I just don’t have enough guts to wear such an outfit on a normal day that requires me to ride the LRT to Intramuros.

Guys sharing a similar ambition, however, have a more favorable fate as one designer wear have followed a Clockwork slant.

Late Nite Mix: French Yé-yé

Françoise Madeleine Hardy, French pop chanteuse

Just when your 256th listen to your electronica/shoegaze playlist starts bringing you back to earth (meaning, it temporarily loses its novelty), sixties girly French pop fondly called Yé-yé pops you back to aural heaven. Girls crooning in heartbreak/with hope/with sheer innocence produces nothing short of cinematic soundscapes smelling of vanilla, cinnamon, and Gitanes.
