Last fix before 06′
You know I 100% support independent designers, but prompted by an e-mail asking for some holiday outfit advice for the “financially challenged” I thought I’d offer up the good ol’ Old Navy suggestion. Sure, the commercials are turn-the-channel obnoxious and the stores are giant warehouses of screaming kids and angry women (have you ever noticed...
Sweet Grime.
My posts are obviously winding down as the holidays approach, but I had to tell you about Grime. Seriously my favorite hip hop album out right now AND it’s FREE to download on his site www.grimeworld.com (I don’t know how long he’ll keep it up, so I suggest you get it while you can). Straight...
Southern Girls en Français and UK’s Nizlopi
Back in my earlier, nerdier days, I would walk shyly around my Jr. High school hallways clutching my old copy of The Great Gatsby. During lunch break, when I wasn’t sitting uncomfortably at a table of popular girls I secretly hated, I would sit outside and listen to my discman (crazy when a discman dates...
The Wall
If the end of the year is like the finish line, this week is “the wall.” The wall exists for me in many arenas, but most notably (read: painfully) while running the last 50 meters of the 400 meter dash. In the 400, “the wall” is that moment where your entire body freezes; your legs...
Thoughts on Over Thinking…
Sometimes you just have to go with what moves you: Top pH by Phillia, portable turn table FredFlare.com, CaliComm CD availible on iTunes, Olympic Tee, from UrbanProfile.com ( a site that comes HIGHLY recommended from my favorite Revolutionary). I have a tendency to over think everything. Especially when it comes to other people… the holidays...
Perfect Blend
Life is about balance. Getting that perfect blend of work, family, social life, and if you’re lucky, some time alone to reflect on it all. As you’ ve probably noticed, I’m not much of a jewelry person. I always admire it on other people, but in terms of personal style, I tend to stick to...
Anticipating Greatness?
Give something breathtaking this season! Tiffany & Co. never disappoints/ Everyone loves something hand-made from the heart/ Your own designer scent, exclusively at ok-ni.com/ Why not give a personalized action figure? This time of year is brimming with anticipation. As a kid, I remember the anticipation of Christmas was almost as much fun as...
Dedicated Post: To My Once Disillusioned Friend.
(It’s ok to wear your heart on your sleeve, just make sure you protect it from creeps! Shirt from brightonparkpress.com ) It’s crazy to think that 2006 is right around the corner! Though most of us choose to make our resolutions January 1st, some of them take a bit more effort than a one-day commitment....
Cereal… Art?
I’m back to the gift-giving posts because I realized it’s getting close to the “holiday season” and also because I feel like my insights all border on the controversial these days, and that stuff is best saved for a different space. Speaking of space, this post is for that special, randomly artistic friend who literally...
