Two days ago…

It was 65-70 degrees outside and now it’s 33. Welcome to Missouri. *shiver* I would say it’s been a busy week and that’s why I haven’t posted, but it’s not true. I just didn’t have a very good week, so I didn’t feel like posting. This is an interesting article (found via Electric Warrior). I…

I totally lied.

The Coraline website is awesome. Go check it out. Something I didn’t actually know that adds to my love of the movie even more is that everything in it is handmade. I especially found this video fascinating (from the website, of course). There are also hidden wallpapers and posters, which are totally worth downloading (I’m…

Firefly Fashion

Geekiest post to ever grace a mostly-fashion blog? Quite possibly! Among the many many wonderful things about Firefly, the wardrobes and costuming are definitely to be counted. Each crew member has a relatively specific style that’s fairly consistent throughout the series. And they are something to behold! Partially out of laziness, and partially because the…

You’d be so pretty if…

you smiled! lost 20 pounds! didn’t have that short hair! or it wasn’t dyed purple! didn’t have tattoos/piercings! Why would a girl as pretty as you DO that to yourself, anyways? Maybe because it is MY body, not public freakin’ property, and I will do whatever the hell I please with it. Maybe because I…

Pretty Polish folk art!

I want this dress: Actually, I don’t really want the dress so much. I’d probably be better off getting this top and skirt, so that I could actually wear a bra with it. *drool*

I really, really…

wanted to like this commercial for MAC for Hello Kitty. And expected to! But I’m sorry, a grown woman (I *think* she’s grown, although, of course, really skinny) wearing that dress is just…disturbing. I think that’s what people think of when they think of Lolita fashion, and it understandably skeeves them out. (am I the…

oh shoe gods…

why do you mock me so?! Those of you who have been reading a while will remember the Bronx Gillian boots I lusted after so, only to get extremely close to getting them for $75 (retail is $175+) and then the seller told me they’d been water damaged. SIGH. Today, whilst browsing the archives of…

Things I Love Thursday

-…is anyone surprised that…Coraline! is on this list. Possibly the second week in a row but I honestly can’t remember and I’m way too lazy to check. -I got a job! Working for the MDA, which at least will give me warm fuzzies while dealing with people over the phone. -The bread from the bakery…

Wishful thinking…

I have a wishlist about as long as my arm right now. Too bad my tax refund has to go to silly things like rent and bills, hmm? Let’s start with hats: LOVE that hat. Don’t know how often I’d wear it, although I’m pretty sure if I had it I’d make an occasion to…

One more post about…

Coraline! I went and saw it again with my sister last Friday and have decided that I want need the soundtrack. The film is indeed very good, so I decided to pick the book up (kid’s books are so cheap, I wish all of my books only cost $6) and…holy crap. They actually watered down…
