Swoon...she's such a/the fav.

Crap, There's Time All Over My Hands

Did I make a collage today? Real life: yes. Wish life: No, I was building houses for those less fortunate. But because I exist in the real life realm, I'm gonna go ahead and say, I had a grand time finding Fall 2009 fashion inspiration. And I only tasted the glue stick one time.

I also took a lunch break with my papa and brother, who is in town this weekend from Long Beach. He asked for a bowl of soup, and doggone-it, if they didn't bring him that big boy bowl!

I'm gonna touch YOU like a fairy.

I posted this on Facebook, but with this video, I needed to cover all my bases. It's must see youtube!

GAGA4GAGA

I was just reminded of the sheer greatness/almost uncomfortability I felt while I saw this video playing on MTV. Lady Gagz is insane in the membrane, really.

Tuesday is NOT Saturday

I just figured out you can listen to Imogen Heap's new album, Ellipse, in full, and it's not even Tuesday yet (the original date for the release). I will perhaps go into an extended review at a later time because of this computer situation. But, if you'll excuse me I'm going to engross myself within an Immi induced coma right now.

Album preview here!

Blog is on hiatus while my broken computer is getting fixed and while I am revamping the look. HEY NOW.

Shoot Up With Some MIKA

Are you feelin' down? Inject a little MIKA into your life, and I guarantee your troubles will seemingly float away. Any song...all songs...it's the most natural anti-depressant you'll come by, and it's hella free.

And here's a link to my bud, Aaron Spector, giving his original interpretation of the same song. I don't even think it's one of those, you have to know him to think it's funny things. It can stand alone as being really really funny (FYI: Dance Break begins at 2:24). Also, this blog is too small for arguing otherwise:

This Little Princess

YE-HEH-HEH-HEH-HEH-SSSSSSSSSSSSSSS...This is exactly what I want! In a 10' x 12' NYC bedroom, what other option do you have for furniture? My narrow mind, fixed to the capacity of an 8 year-old, is clearly thinking that there is no other option.

Why Kathy Griffin is My Mentor: CASE AND POINT

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! Kathy Griffin attending the Teen Choice Awards with Levi Johnston, Bristol Palin's baby-daddy...OKAY, NOT ONLY did she trespass on Broadway Diva, Carol Channing's, Palm Springs property on the finale episode of her BRAVO series "My Life on the D-List", but the same night her finale airs she smacks the world with this? It's just too rich, Kathy...too rich.

Oh, I'ts Definitely On

For style purposes, I do my best to check out "It's On With Alexa Chung" each weekday on the MTV noon spot. However, five minutes of that show is about all I can handle. I am sure she is a lovely person, however, the at times uncomfortably imposing banter with her guests, plus the inability to have any sort of original wit equals a show that is about as entertaining as still-fruit.

Someday My Kitchen Will Come

I would not at all be opposed to owning this kitchen. A globe in the kitchen? Why the eff not?

Kickin' it Wit Whit

I'm obsessed with Whitney Houston...like in "gay speak", I like Cher, but WHITNEY IS MAH JAM! Her comeback will be fierce. If not in public, then at least in my heart. Check out some of the latest jamz here. You will find a sassy little up-tempo number, "Million Dollar Bill", as well as a classic Whit ballad, "I Look to You"...And to this I say, BRING ON THE DEEV, and by "deev" I'm of course referring to DIVA. YOU BETTA WARK.

The essence of my soul thanks you.

Faux Plus: Chloe Boots

Clearly the $198 price tag on the
Northern Lights Boot by Free People is a lot nicer than the upwards of $1000 on those Chloes. They're practically replicas...Free People wasn't even trying to be discreet about their design. All the more better to trick your friends with. I will be on board, as soon as that alimony rolls in...?

"Wait" Alexi Murdoch

Feel I'm on the verge of some great truth
Where I'm finally in my place,
But I'm fumbling still for proof,
And it's cluttering my space
Casting shadows on my face.

I know I have a strength to move ahead.
I can hardly leave my room.
So I'll sit perfecty still.
And I'll listen for a tune
When the mind is on the moon.

And if I stumble
And if I stall
And if I slit now
And if I should fall
And if I can't be all that I could be
Will you, will you wait for me?

Cause everywhere I seem to be
I am only passing through.
I dream these days about the sea.
I always wake up feeling blue
Wishing I could dream of you.

So if I stumble
And if I fall
And if I slit now
And lose it all
And if I can't be all that I could be
Will you, will you wait for me?

-->This song is featured on the Away We Go Original Motion Picture Soundtrack. Murdoch actually performed most of the music heard throughout the film. I saw it about a month ago, and my urge to recommend it is still strong. Poignant+Funny+Good Tuneage+John Krasinski=DING DING, We have a WINNER.

Robyn Lives

As you may know, from previous Tumblr posts, I'm such the fan of Robyn. NOW, my like for her stems from way back in '97 with hits like "Show Me Love" and "Do You Know (What it Takes)", but Beebee grew up. She is a 90s pop princess no more, and I am down for that get down anyday. Here's some new(ish) material from Robyn. I admit, the second song does not really display very well her new sound, but it's pretty, mmmkay (Around 1:46 the pretty really kicks in)? I recommend her newest self-titled album, ROBYN for a subway seeking, NYC strutting good time.

Moleskine Makes me Whole...skine

I GOTTA NEW PLANNER!!!!!!! Lord knows I'm one of the few freaks on the planet who gets so tremendously excited about a Moleskine. Not a whole second passed after the plastic wrapping came off that I smelled its fresh newness...the possibilities for creativity are endless. I heart you Moleskine, for all the things that you are.

Moleskine art found here
The first artist has his own website here, and I am hoping that he will want to date me sometime in the near future.

Jew Look So Prit-E 2day

Carolina has such an enviable style. Her outfits make me want to be a better person. Sitting at my computer screen I am actually thinking about all the special things I am going to do as soon as I move: Go to the gym, get coffee, blogmore (it's a singular verb...and no, the "g" is not silent), tickle the guitar strings, hit up Savers, read part of one of the three books I have started, AND talk to the primary source of my movement to the upper-west side (more deets to come)...aaaannnnndddd the right butt cheek is lifting...

J'Adore Caylee...Monday French Lesson

Someone just popped up with a new blog, and I am all over it. No, literally. I am actually sprawled out on top of her bargain hunting ways. It's just proof that black is not whack, and I CAN WEAR IT EVERYDAY IF I WANT TO MOM! My mother's been complaining lately that she would like to see a little color up by my face. Alright, but what's the greatest contrast to white (my face)? BLACK (my clothes)! That's right. I'm sticking to the dark side, and Caylee is all the proof I need to ensure that I remain for a pleasant leisurely stay.

Welcome to Old Navy!

Guess who held the door open for me at Old Navy today?...THE ASIAN KITTY CAT FROM SUPERBAD (Miroki)!!! I nearly fell down. Talk about a clean up by the ribbed tank tops...the only other person that would have been cooler than that would have been Whitney Houston. But then again, Ms. Houston is ALWAYS the exception, isn't she?
