Here Comes Fashion Week!

Thu, 04 Sep 2008 03:21:20 GMT

Friday marks the beginning of Fashion Week! I would much rather be parading around the tents than working on trivial last semester of college homework. But, alas, I am neither famous, nor rich, nor important enough to be invited. Maybe one day. Until then, I will lurk the shows from home with the help of Style.com. This year I am looking forward to collections from a select few. 1. Charlott... [Original Post on MyItThings.com]

Even though I am now supposed to act like an adult I am still an avid fan of all things cute. And when that cuteness is combined with Japanese culture I am all the more excited. I recently stumbled upon Momiji, a small company with an array of adorable products. Momiji carries a collection of dolls, housewares and bath treats. Their dolls are known as Momiji, Japanese for message dolls, the house... [Original Post on MyItThings.com]

Blindness

Fri, 04 Apr 2008 20:41:54 GMT

A winner of the Nobel Peace Prize for Literature, Blindness is set in a world that is suffering from an inexplicable outbreak of loss of sight. I have tried to stay away from learning any more a...

Help Rivers Cuomo Write a Song!

Thu, 27 Mar 2008 20:21:34 GMT

When I was in high school I basically worshiped Weezer . I was able to see them twice. Once at the Patriot Center in Fairfax, Virginia and another time at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, Maryland. Each concert was equally magnificient. At the first concert they played mostly Green Album songs, and at the other they played coveted Pinkerton and Blue Album hits. Many of my friends/fami... [Original Post on MyItThings.com]

The Fresh Spring Faces of Chloe

Fri, 21 Mar 2008 00:12:58 GMT

I rarely change the perfume that I wear. I am undeniably picky when it comes to scents, so when I find one I like, I stick with it. I hate overpowering florals, and despise anything that smells too sweet. Throughout my life I have meandered through Ralph by Ralph Lauren , Metro by BCBGirls , and Burberry Brit. Burberry Brit is my absolute favorite, but being that I have worn it since high... [Original Post on MyItThings.com]

The Million Inch Chain

Thu, 13 Mar 2008 22:59:26 GMT

Last Friday I donated 8 inches of my hair. I knew I was going to be cutting my hair to a boyish cut anyway, so it made sense to give the rest to someone who really needs it. I was a little worried because I knew Locks for Love only takes 10 inches at a minimum. And unfortunately I did not have that much hair. ve got extremely long hair, than 8 inches will seem like nothing! ... [Original Post on MyItThings.com]

In Bruges and Martin McDonagh

Fri, 07 Mar 2008 22:20:30 GMT

Last night I went to see the movie In Bruges starring Colin Farrell, Ralph Fiennes, and Brendan Gleeson. I knew that I was going to enjoy the movie, but I was not prepared for how moving it would be. The film was filled with hilarious dark humor, a mesmerizing soundtrack (thank you, Carter Burwell), and the weaving of a poignant narrative. It was easy to get caught up in the depth of each...

Jen Kao

Wed, 05 Mar 2008 02:48:48 GMT

Last Fall I was pleased to discover the distinctive designs of fashion newcomer, Jen Kao. Immediately I was struck by the intricately detailed pieces. Each is exquisite in its own right. The luxurious fabrics shift and mold to its model s body just so. Her collections are fun, and equally functional.
Kao studied Studio Arts at NYU before receiving a post-graduate a Japanese background burstin... [Original Post on MyItThings.com]

Keep the Lights On!

Tue, 04 Mar 2008 20:38:22 GMT

Friday Night Lights is easily my favorite television show. It the list goes on and on. I can talk about the show for hours on end. But, I will not be able to if it does not come back this Fall. NBC has already decided not to start production again since the writers strike has ended. This leaves fans wondering if it is even coming back for a third season ever. And the last show written was h... [Original Post on MyItThings.com]

Spicy Brown and Tofu Robots

Tue, 04 Mar 2008 20:35:42 GMT

I eat tofu pretty regularly. In my mind it is a perfect snack, straight out of the carton dipped in a little Thai peanut sauce. I can eat it every which way and be completely satisfied. But that doesn s Tofu Robots.

Vivienne Westwood's Eco Warriors

Tue, 04 Mar 2008 06:22:53 GMT

After seeing videos and photographs from Westwood' s Red Label London show, I was slightly disappointed by its subdued nature. Where was the fanatical, innovative, politically driven, three time British Designer of the Year winner I have so fondly followed through the years? Well, apparently she was waiting to re-emerge in Paris with a thunderous and eccentric production.

After quickly surveying the Oscar fashion choices last night, it was quite clear who was the best dressed. I, and many others believe the honors belong to Best Actress, Marion Cotillard.
The dress was simply stunning. Jean Paul Gaultier couture at his best. Now, I do understand fish-scales might not be for everyone, but it suits Marion well. stories are for another day.

I recently bought an organic cotton knit top from Eurotrash , a great new boutique, in Carytown. I have honestly never worn softer cotton. This semester I am taking a textiles class and am finally learning something in college. This class has really peaked my interest in eco-friendly products. Beforehand, I was already very much into the green trend and bought some organic foods, got a canvas gr... [Original Post on MyItThings.com]
