Lights come on.
That perky pop song you keep hearing on the radio starts thumping. The camera pans to the thick sea of lipstick celebrities and petite fashion bloggers eagerly waiting on the sidelines. Loaded guns full of confetti point purposefully towards the catwalk.
A heavenly, golden creature floats into view and blows a pouty kiss to you. In a mesmerising procession, she’s followed by others just like her – each somehow more ethereal than the one before.
Between the reverberating rhythm of that song, those endlessly long limbs and the glitter, you can almost smell the wafts of vanilla, coconut, and tan.
Of course, your nostrils are really filled with the sweet scent of takeaway Nasi Goreng, because you’re actually seated alongside your partner, whose jaw is hanging so precariously you believe it might fall off. Nevertheless, that smell still lingers. (Post continues after gallery.)

The writer thinks these girls are heavenly and ethereal? I don't. They're not interesting as people and I have never watched one of these parades. I prefer brains, intelligence and substance any day!!!
I went to the same high school as Shanina Shaik, prior to her discovery. I've seen her walking around in the same daggy school uniform as me. Models are people too, treating them as holier than thou just propagates the unrealistic standards. The difference between Shanina and me is where we prioritise chocolate in our lives, and I'm okay with my decision.
