Let's face it, ladies. While we do watch dramas for the characters and the story, having a charismatic lead actor can often make or break a show. In fact, in some cases, having eye candy is enough to get us through to the next episode of a drama, no matter how lame we might initially find the plot to be.
I've been a drama fan since I was in high school, and after years of watching Asian dramas, there are certain actors I've grown fond of, thanks to their memorable portrayals of their characters (and, okay, they're cuties too). Scroll through the gallery below to see 15 of my favorite leading men.
I had a hard time narrowing my list down, and I'm sure if you come up with your own, you'll be in the same boat too. Do any of our favorite actors match? Have suggestions of your own? Tell me about them in a comment!
Who doesn’t love a good, light romantic read? But I find that sometimes I get frustrated when the story ends right after the hero and heroine declare their love for one another and/or get married. Because, having been married for almost four years now, I know that “I love you” doesn’t always fix the problems between a man and a woman, and I also know that the wedding is just the beginning of a whole new adventure in your relationship.
Ever wanted to take a photo and curse your decision to leave your camera at home? If you've got a smartphone, you don't have to worry because you can use it to get the photographs you need! To quote Chase Jarvis, "the best camera is the one with you." Remember that the camera is a tool to capture images. It doesn't matter if you have an expensive camera or a camera phone--as long as you get the perfect shot, your image will work.
Back in high school, I went through a phase of wearing mostly pink clothing. Shirts, tops, cardigans, bracelets--you name it. I can't exactly pinpoint the reason behind this, except for the fact that I like the color. Most shades would take the backseat in favor of the girly hue, regardless of the fact that I definitely had other colors in my wardrobe. And then there's Maan, one of my closest friends. While pink was just something I like on my clothes, she, on the other hand, chose blue for just about anything. Clothes, shoes, pens, bags, lunch boxes, the elastics on her braces—so strong was her love for the color that she once told me she'd dye her hair blue once we hit college (she never did). For two girls spending most of their waking days in a uniform, you'd think we'd at least want to experiment with other colors.
Nowadays, I'm just as likely to go for blue, green, and purple when I dress up as I would pink. Black, white, and cream too. But if I really want to stay on trend, I'd best heed Pantone and their bets for 2012's hottest colors. Pantone, of course, is the authority on color—not just when it comes to fashion but for color in general. But for simplicity's sake (and for my sanity), I'll focus on its fashion aspect. Every main fashion season (that's Spring/Summer and Fall/Winter to you), Pantone surveys designer collections, then comes up with a list of colors that dominated the catwalk. This list, then, becomes the guide for what we'll all be wearing for the months to come. You know that scene in The Devil Wears Prada where Miranda Priestly goes on a lengthy tirade about the color cerulean blue, after Andy Sachs made the mistake of mocking two seemingly similar belts? Yes, Pantone probably had a say in that.
