Victorian Beauties

Ah… how long can a girl go on about her hair? When I find out, I’ll let you know. I was thinking of going for the bob, until in my quest for hair styles, I came across this Victorian Hair essay by Michael Warner. It’s just beautiful the images he selected, and inspires me to [...]

Today’s Attire : Hopeful

I’ve been feeling rather post-modern recently. In college, I didn’t really know what that meant, even though I had to write papers about it. It’s an attitude really. It’s interesting feeling the 21st century take its shape, with global warming, health issues, the Internet. Influence, inspiration, it’s all a beautiful and horrific mish-mash. Some style [...]

Good Jeans

The other day I was feeling blue, so I had the great idea to look for new jeans. Since for some strange reason, I’ve never really scoped out the new Bloomingdales, I went to see their jeans selection. All I wanted were high-waisted skinny jeans. Like the ones pictured above from the Good, the Bad [...]

Denim Doc…

Current.tv is a website were you can make your own documentaries and submit them and it’s good, and people like it, they’ll play it on the station. I dont’ have cable, so I don’t know if the channel is very good, but the website is lots of fun. I found this documentary on denim, and [...]

“no thanks, I’m saving room for the bratwurst…”This is what I’m wearing to a barbecue this afternoon. It’s important to keep a few good things in mind:

Look festive. You’re going to be at a party, do it up! Parties are the time to look fabulous! But don’t be too sexy (by that I mean don’t [...]
