The difference

You know, the whole point about getting breast implants (aside from them making you look a lot better) is that it means you can afford to pay for them. (Case in point, Kris Aquino. She's tactless and wants to be a Senator, but we at Laitera credit her for her expensive taste in fashion and cosmetic surgery.) And the effect is really fantastic. They look natural, they move naturally, and they can make a girl's life really fabulous in this increasingly physical and superficial world. (it snagged her a Joey Marquez, yes, but it also snagged her a James Yap.)

This, of course, excludes all those cheap implants done in second-rate hospitals by practitioners who have fake medical diplomas hung up on their walls, or in cosmetic parlors by fat and aging women with overbleached skin and overyded hair and eyebrows tatooed with greenish ink. Because really, those kinds are everywhere, and a girl can get a cup D for just Php 5,000 per pair, the only catch being that in environments that are a bit cooler (i.e., in an airconditioned room, or in Tagaytay), these boobs harden.

The former is something to be proud of. A girl has a right to flaunt them. Like Kris Aquino, ergo her lingerie ads. But in the case of Maui Taylor...


... you be the judge.
