I'm Back!

Hello, hello! I'm back, dolls. Wow, it's been awhile, hasn't it?

Life has been a little, er, crazy and I needed a break. 

But I'm back in full force and ready to roll. 

Let's do this! 

Weekend Antics.

I decided to drag Andrew out of bed Saturday morning
to take advantage of the beautiful weather. We headed to Eastern
Market to check out the local vendors and enjoy the sunshine.

The produce was amazing and there were samples
everywhere to snack on. Aren't these carrots enormous?

Everything looked so fresh and delicious.

The markets were full of hand-made crafts and art.

We then headed to the Atlas District.

My handsome boyfriend patiently waiting for our food at
Toki Underground. We arrived promptly at 5pm when the
doors opened and still had to wait 45 minutes.

We ordered pan-fried pork dumplings and chicken curry
ramen. The broth was so flavorful and unique tasting.

The decor was a mix of kitsch, colorful, and modern
with small tokidoki figurines everywhere. I highly
recommend this place - just be prepared to wait!

Fiona Apple.

Horray! Fiona Apple is releasing a new album this year. I love her biting honesty and beautiful, sometimes angsty lyrics.



Her last album, Extraordinary Machine, came out in 2005 and was my anthem at the time. It's about time for some new music from Miss Fiona - long overdue!

Sh*t Fashion Girls Say

This one hits close to home in the best/worst sort of way. One of my favorites from the series.

So many good one-liners...

What To Do With An Extra $100.

What would you do with an extra $100? Treat yourself
to a new pair (or two) of shoes? Put the money towards that
new bag you've been eying? Mani/pedi?

Here is what you should do. This seems like very sound advice.

Check it out here, ladies. Suze Orman would be proud.

Spring Daydreaming.

I have a confession, guys. I get the winter blues. The gray skies and
rain are just so blah. I have been day dreaming about warmer weather.
These color-block sandals are going on my 'must have' list for the spring.

Bright colors with feminine fabrics pretty much sum up
warmer weather to me. I don't know about you, but I'm
ready for dresses sans tights, thankyouverymuch.

Something tells me mint is going to be the color this spring. I am
loving mint nails and this "mermaid manicure" is just too cute.

What is color-blocking?

Spring's most wearable trends.

What are you looking forward to rocking during warmer weather?

Madonna vs. Gaga.

Madonna versus Gaga. Gaga versus Madonna. Ohh, the oldest rivalry known to gay men everywhere. Ok, that's a lie. But, it's certainly a topic of conversation since the debut of Gaga's pop melodies and eccentric antics. Gaga has admitted on many occasions that Madonna is an inspiration to her (no doubt), but what does Madge think of this?

During a recent interview Madonna is asked what she thinks about Gaga and "Born this Way." Her reply? "It feels reductive," otherwise known as simplified or crude.

Is Madonna justified in being (clearly) pissed? What are your thoughts, dolls?

PS: How about a Madonna/Gaga collaboration?! That, my friends, would be pop genius.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas, dolls! I hope ya'll are having a fab day with your loved ones.

Here are some links to make you smile...

Christmas photos from all over the world.

Michelle Obama helps track Santa.

A dubstep Christmas.

Adorable letters to Santa.

Mariah's "All I Want For Christmas" is the most played Christmas song. Not surprising, considering I played this at least fifty times in the month of December...

These would be perfect NYE shoes, no?

Eight makeup mistakes to avoid during the holidays.

How to have a low-key NYE that doesn't suck.

Sh!t Girls Say.

Ugh, everything about this is true. Haha, "loves it!"

Stacked Bracelets.

I'm all about the layered jewelry these days.

More is more!
