Alice in Wonderland Contest Winners!
A couple of weeks ago we asked you to dress up as any one of the characters from Alice in Wonderland using items from your closet. You all did really well interpreting the characters but since we can only choose five winners, here they are - these five lucky gals who won RM300 over worth of Alice in Wonderland goodies and a Nina by Nina Ricci perfume.
Dell Design Studio Contest Winner Updated!
*Updated*
Tongue in Chic had the opportunity of meeting the folks from Dell, Intel and the one helluva lucky gal, Esther Phan. She walked away with a Dell Design Studio laptop powered by one of the fastest processor around - Intel® CoreTM Family of Processors. We were secretly hoping Esther didn't get the message that she won and that piece of machinery would be ours, but alas it was not to be!
Alice in Wonderland Contest
As a little girl I remember being pretty horrified when I first watched Alice in Wonderland. My imaginary world was painted serene and pretty and didn't have crazed animals, a queen that decapitated people and most of all squeezing through tight spaces. But once I overcame my fears as an adult, I begun to appreciate Lewis Carroll's fantasy realm even further. So much more that the upcoming version by Tim Burton (I've sent the trailer) got me jumping like a schoolgirl!
The Winners of the La Senza "You Sexy Thing" Contest!
We asked you guys to pour your heart out to us using the phrase "You Sexy Thing" and boy were we overwhelmed by the feedback. I never knew we had so many readers out there who are also part time poets! You girls and (ahem) boys sure know who to play around with words and while some made me chuckle, the rest of you had me blushing like a 10 year old. So without further delay, here are the 10 that burned a mean trail with their hot notes.
La Senza "You Sexy Thing" Contest Update!
* One week left before the contest ends (8th Feb 2010), so hurry and send in your entries!
Valentine's Day means a lot of different things to various people - a day of love and romance for lovebirds, an anniversary of commitment for married couples and for the cynics and pessimists, a day to gleefully scorn the 150% increase in the price of roses for one day. Nonetheless we should never forget that Valentine's Day is a day to celebrate ourselves too. Too often we neglect our own personal welfare for work, social life or school and the result is feeling burned out and exhausted all the time. This is why I propose Valentine's Day, the day of love should be a day just for you - love yourself as you would love another. Forget about couples, let's spread some TLC on the fabulous you with some smocking hot confidence boosters!
Dell Design Studio Polyvore Contest

We want you to flex your artistic muscle and show us how you would style yourself up according to the Dell Design Studio. Fantasy could become reality because the winner of this contest will walk away with an exclusive Dell Design Studio Mike Ming Red Swirl laptop, powered by an Intel Core i7 processor!
Exfoliation: The Secret to Great Skin
I know you love clothes, fashion, hairstyles, makeup and everything in between, but a wise makeup artist once told me, looking great stems from great, clear skin. According to him, there's that certain natural glow no amount of makeup can replicate and though you might throw on as much sequins layering as you like, all that reflective shine simply won't cut it either. I pursued the conversation further and asked this baby-smooth skin guru, if cleansing isn't enough, what is? And like a newborn fowl opening its eyes for the first time, I was told; double cleansing is.
