Katy Perry and Diesel Get Your Heart Racing in the Livier Jeans!

By | Fashion, What's New at Rustan's | One Comment

 Diesel dresses up Katy Perry in the official music video for her forthcoming album’s title track, “Teenage Dream.” “I’ma get your heart racing in my skin-tight jeans, be your teenage dream tonight,” Katy croons over her exclusive Diesel “Livier 65Z” 5-pocket jean leggings.

In Katy Perry’s previous music video, for “California Gurls,” she played a token sized game-piece in a gargantuan candyland, avoiding Gummi Bears, laying nude on cotton-candy clouds and wearing Diesel “Mintha” daisy-dukes customized with thousands of sapphire Swarovski Elements. But her follow-up music video, for “Teenage Dream,” will bring the singer back to her California hometown, and back in Diesel denim.

The video reveals Perry wearing Diesel’s Livier jeans throughout a sun-kissed serenade at Katy’s own old stomping ground, just north of Santa Barbara.  She ventures on a sunny road trip with friends, driving and basking in the sun, on the beach with her love interest (played by Josh Kloss), and getting steamy in a hotel bedroom.  Perry’s “skin-tight jeans” look is decidedly stripped-down, and not just in the bedroom scene!  She wears the Diesel Livier jeans sans shirt showcasing her natural beauty on the beach, and surprises us all (in an on-line version of the video) by unzipping to a “full moon” out the window of her car!  On-line video is slated to release later this week.

After seeing Katy in her Diesel Livier 65Z, you’ll want to get all the boys’ heart’s racing too!

Knot Wrap Waste Not, Want Knot

By | Christmas, Green, What's New at Rustan's | No Comments

 The Lush Knot-Wrap is inspired by the Japanese art of Furoshiki, which literally means “cloth for the bath”.    Originating from Japanese culture where it promotes caring for the environment and reducing waste, it started out in the 1600’s when people used it to carry their clothes and toiletries; Knot-Wrap is the eco-friendly wrapping cloth.

Lush are introducing vintage scarves into shops to encourage customers to use them instead of gift-wrap.  At Php375 each, the beautiful scarves are reusable and multipurpose.  Using techniques similar to origami, it can be used for gift-wrapping, grocery shopping or simply as decor.

Each year billions of plastic bags end up as litter and reusable bags, such as Knot Wrap, can help reduce the impact to our environment.  It can also reduce the amount of gift-wrap used this Christmas, as its versatility allows you to wrap almost anything regardless of its shape or size.

Choose from Lush’s selection of bath and body products and then have them wrapped in a beautiful vintage scarf.  It makes a gorgeous gift, but also an easy and eco-friendly way of carrying your Lush products home.  The scarves can then be re-used again and again either as bags, or as fashionable head-scarves / neck-scarves etc.  

The scarves are beautiful, in a selection of colors and designs and bought from various Vintage clothing suppliers, allowing us to reuse existing fabrics rather than manufacturing our own = zero carbon footprint.  So more environmentally friendly and a lot more purse friendly than a Hermes scarf, but just as gorgeous! 

And this year we have introduced our very first Knot Wrap Christmas gift, the adorable Matryoshka (Php995).  Always on the pulse of the latest trends, Lush has taken inspiration from Russia and its iconic doll-within-a-doll and created this cute cosmetic version.  The outer shell is made of a special, limited edition So White soap, and inside you will find two adorable Christmas ballistics, So White and Cinders, both shaped like little Russian Dolls.  They are all wrapped together in a mini Knot Wrap scarf, which makes for a great napkin or hanky.  The perfect packaging free gift.
