sans maquillage, sans retouches


I love the concept of the cover(s) of the latest French Elle:
gorgeous stars without make up or any sort of retouching.

I mean, HELLO.
Check out Monica Bellucci!


Simply stunning.

pixel princess


In the words of Steve Urkell, WHOA MAMA.



I mean, how bonkersawesome are these tights?

$42 is a heavy price to pay for these threadz, but then again, how many ladies are going to walk in to a party wearing these puppies?  No wardrobe mix up there, that's for sure.

[Get these Hellz Bellz femme fatale leggings in multi at 80's purple]

the hills are alive


...with the sound of sniffles and getting clocked in the chinny chin chin.

A summary of last night's episodes in pictures:

1.  woohoo tequila

2. ol' crazy eyes

3. omg Spencer hahaha lol

4. the prettiest face made all night

5. say what?

6. cryfest '09.


Good gravy.

All in all,
Spencer is still a dick.
Stacie (the bartender who is a walking advertising campaign for AA tri-blend tanks) plays both sides of the argument:
"Good luck with THAT,"/"...no crazy girlfriends." Congrats on your wee little slice of fame, tequila queen.
I mean, you would dance on the bar if "Pour Some Sugar on Me" played? Are you serious?
And everyone else is still the same.

Check out The Cut's recap here.

ink envy


My tattoo craving was seeeriously fed by this photo I found on flickr this afternoon:


C'est magnifique!


If I love Paris as much as I think I will this summer (eeee the trip is only a few weeks away!) and if I happen to grow some balls (ahem, some courage), I might have to steal (ahem, borrow) this idea.

Love it.


What do you think?

designed for good


While at Harvest of Hope Fest in St. Augustine a few weeks ago, I bought a shirt from an organization called Rosa Loves.  

RL raises money for a variety of different causes through selling awesome shirts.  They say, "Each story will be told through stimulating graphics and actual text that will appear on the inverse of the shirt directly in line with the heart, where the Rosa Loves movement stems from.  Rosa Loves is less about charity and more about awareness, awareness that we are all apart of something greater and are therefore joined by common threads."

Need a creative gift idea for your bestie's birthday?  
Rosa Loves has got you covered (literally).
Look good AND feel good!







The above design is called "Ms. Pearl," and the proceeds from its sale pay for supplies and labor needed to repair and sustain the Musicians' Bunkhouse in New Orleans.

I hope Miles isn't reading this post because "Ms. Pearl" is his birthday present!


For more information on Rosa Loves (yes, they offer internships!), look here.
