Total Energies - goes for the good vibes for the holiday season


 "We wish you positive energy for this season" - well, at least Total Energies remained within the theme this holiday season and they stuck with what they sell. It also helps they are trying to spread cheer at their stations as I noticed this at the billboard where tires are checked right as you go out of the station.

Sure, maybe I did not pick the best angle to shoot it but one does what one can.

End of year card 2022 is here!


 And the end of year card is here! Looks like you have been all good boys and girls to deserve one (I am realizing through my archive that some years I was lax and did not do one).

Here's the backlog though! What it strange however is that - for someone as organized as I am, it took me forever to find them - there is however one missing from 2002 (back when I was in Saudi Arabia but I do recall it was a simple downloaded nativity scene).

So here they are the cards throughout the years.

Pam Nasr - a brilliant film for Versace Jeans Couture

This indeed, is a match made in fashion heaven. Superb film director Pam Nasr (from Clams Casino and very in-demand model) is out with a bang for Versace Jeans Couture. Nasr's 80s esthetics is only too compatible with Versace, as both go for "less is bore" and dial the volume to 11 with "more and more". The story, believe it or not, could indeed have happened. Well, it draws on Lebanon's Christmas traditions of dinner on the 24th (which takes precedent to lunch on the 25th) with friends going to their dinner. Well, with an old Mercedes with a tendency to breakdown, friends clad in Versace Jeans Couture, and some helpful people met along the way - what could go wrong? Actually, "what could go right?" is a better question. The film is - honestly - exceptional. Quirky, smart, well-written, and - ahem actually this is a praise - very kitsch. Oh and this is not a spoiler, it actually ends with a party! Watch the beautiful film here!
