List 上轉貼的消息 海峽時報的一篇Kit 得獎的報導...大概是個時尚獎吧 Kit很隨興的講了她包包和裡面的東東 sodez 看來10月初她還在新加坡 有圖有真相: http://newpaper.asia1.com.sg/happenings/story/0,4136,95444,00.html? Photography: Desmond Wee; hair: Ben Leong, Passion; make-up: Alvin Goh, (contact@alvingoh.com) Oct 6, 2005 Kit Chan Singaporean singer-actor-writer Kit Chan, 33, has no qualms about being called fat. She is 1.64m tall and weighs 58kg, which she says is considered overweight in the entertainment world. 'Stylists used to tell me to lose weight so I'd look better in front of the camera and it'd be easier to find me clothes,' she says. 'But now that they've realised I'll never be skinny, they're very kind and look for clothes which make me look slim.' Though she says the pressure on performers to be skinny is enormous, she insists she has never had issues with her weight and eats what she likes. In fact, she's gained 10kg since she first started out in showbiz 12 years ago. Her secret, she says, is 'being comfortable with your body image and having a sense of humour about things'. 'I know that in the real world, I'm not considered fat,' she says. 'It helps that I think I look awful skinny because the veins in my neck stick out.' Her versatile career helped her nab an inaugural Carl F. Bucherer Trail Blazer Award last week. It recognises individuals who have made their mark by blazing their own trail. And in line with her non-conventional attitude to life, she pairs a vintage-looking Karen Walker ensemble from Trixilini with a Chanel 2.55 for today's shoot. 'Many people think that Chanel bags only look good on tai tais or career women,' she says. 'I wanted to show that you can look great pairing a Chanel bag with casual clothes.' Her bag I got this from my boyfriend for my birthday last month. I've always wanted a classic Chanel 2.55 bag but I thought I'd wait till I was 40 because they look quite glossy and tai tai. But then, I fell in love with this vintage-style one and put my name on the waiting list for it. But after shopping in Europe, I couldn't afford it, so I told my boyfriend to cancel the reservation. It was so sweet of him to surprise me with it. I'm not a soft toy kind of girl but when I saw her in Paris I just had to get her. Just look at the detailing on her jacket. I like that she's hand-made.I'm not sure if this is the best product in the world, but the packaging is damn cute. I picked it up from Taipei and I really like the way Burt looks on the lid. I'm a big fan of alternative entrepreneurs. I am a pen and paper person and this came with a leather case but that's too big for my bag.I bought this from Blackjack about 10 years ago and I never thought it would last me more than two years. But I'm careful with it and I only use it when I'm carrying a small bag. Hopefully it'll last me another 10 years.I love to do yoga at Club Oasis but I'm nowhere as good as Tanya Chua. But I only do it on and off because I'm not a sporty person. I'd rather work or hang out than exercise. So the moment someone asks me to go out, I'll cancel my yoga.This cost around $10 from Japan. It's very useful because you don't want anything stuck in your teeth after eating, especially if you've got a photo shoot. I'm the sort who will tell a friend if he has something stuck in his teeth. I usually only use this in the toilet, but if I'm in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Japan, it's okay to use it at the table because that's a part of their culture. I started this boutique with a secondary school friend and my former personal assistant about five years ago. They do the merchandising and I'm a silent partner. I love wearing the accessories, but unfortunately I can't fit into a lot of the clothes.This, along with a Montblanc pen, was also a present from my boyfriend. It's great for shopping lists and ideas that I get when I'm on the move. I just write little notes and tear them out to pass to people. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 218.174.218.206
