annamarie: Don’t buy vintage glasses.  Mine just broke after only a month of wearing them.  Buy new glasses that LOOK vintage.  You might not feel as cool, but having frames break two weeks before you leave for Europe is even less cool. JUST as I was considering these….

I remember a science periodical in elementary school that had a section with macro photography and you had to guess the abstract or obscured object.  This reminds me of that and still find it compelling.

The entire time I was watching The September Issue I kept thinking - How could she accurately evaluate fashion with BLACK SUNGLASSES on??!?!?!?! Anyone else?

With spring technically upon us- though not in temperature- its a good idea to get the feet in tip top shape. This foot gel is so powerful you should not leave it on calluses longer than one minute- obviously i had to leave it on for 5 to see what it would do. Good idea for bad calluses not such a good idea for dry skin. You also need so little to get rid of real roughness.

Creature Comforts thinks this would make a great Valentines day gift, but I also think its a great bridal shower offering or an inexpensive anniversary gift. Or even adorable for the guest room.

A while back, D spotted a photo I took, that was commissioned for a certain Jewish website, unlawfully displayed on another Jewish website and we took action. First is screenshot with my photo. Gavel on top of religious book- that is mine. So … we enlisted a lawyer friend of ours (we obviously know many, we are Jewish) to write a Cease and Desist letter to rattle them a bit. Just for...

Good Gadgetry
Always looking to make my life simpler I am no stranger to a novel idea. Here is one of my latest toys- for mom not baby. A neoprene case that holds many stacked baby food jars, with these removable neat neoprene discs for separators within the case. Even has a pouch on the outside of the case that holds utensils. I already got it dirty and i rinsed it in the sink and all the nasty sweet...

I know print is on the decline. As committed and addicted to the internet as I am, i would be heartbroken if magazines moved completely online. For one, I love getting “happy mail”, the mail i wait for, excited to leaf through the pages and mark my interests. I love the sensation of ripping things out. I don’t mind advertisements when they are not popping up in my face on...

long lengths
I for the most part am really liking the long tunic length sweater thing we are doing these days. Since most people are wearing leggings or skin tight pants… we need something to keep us flatteringly covered. But i think people need to know what works well for them and their bods. I have found a few good options that i think will work for different body types. Small on top: great with...

Came upon this brand new kids clothing line Acoustic Kid while browsing some shops in Park Slope with G who then exclaims that of course I love this line because I dress B like a mini-me. Guilty. Two of my faves: I actually found a few things from their current fall ‘09 line at Loehmann’s a few days ago! Check out more of their stuff at their site.

One trend I have been growing fond of is the super chunky infinity scarf. I appreciate the heavy scarf feel without the long-stuff-into-your-coat- variety. Some highlights are LuluandLoie’s shop on Etsy: Costs 80 dollars. These below are from New York and Company. I like the next look because it gives you the feel of wearing a turtleneck but only outdoors. From Etsy seller...

Highly recommend
This cleanser is intended for use 2-3 times a week, but I have been using it every night and I tend to have dry skin but this really doesn’t dry it out at all. You can get it Harmon with an expired bed bath and beyond coupon for 20% less. Another plus is that you need so little to get perfect exfoliation and a rich lather.

JEAN LEGGINGS-or “jeggings” as i have seen. if you are not already a huge fan then i highly recommend you get with the program. ladies that it. fellas- keep the legging phase for us - they are the most comfortable way to wear “jeans” and they will seamlessly fit into any boot, and some of elastic waistbands which can really eliminate muffin tops of if you err o the...

another thing I have been waiting to post about
is the hiatus in riverdale ny of alternate side parking. BUT by far the best most delicious part of this temporary 6-8 week suspension is the majority of dopes who don’t know anything about it. i get joy from it every single time.

wow
i know it has been so long- but I am back and in a big way. I have much to say on many a topic. I want to start with the underwhelming talent on Project Runway this season. DISAPPOINTING in every way. these designers would have been gone by week 3 in any other season because they are safe and predictable and unimaginative. Irina thinks she is gods gift- i mean u did leggings with a big sweater -...

Jeans everywhere- I can’t get enough. The skinny distressed look is one of my fave jeans in a long time- ( high waisted is not for real people.) Above pair can be found at Anthropologie for a WHOPPING $175. (Joe’s Klum Rolled Ankle Chelsea) ALSO …. Very into the new motorcross addition to the jeans repertoire. Here is one affordable pair from Alloy, though i feel very old...

This past friday a legend passed away. Most people are probably thinking I am getting the date wrong of michael jacksons death but the man of which I speak was my grandfather. Singer, songwriter Jo Amar.

Now that i am officially done with work, I have time to address pressing issues. like self tanners and TIME magazine’s attempts at being “hip.” one thing i must share with the masses is the insane sale that went on at the Metroploitan Museum of art store. 75% off the entire store. every book, every piece of jewelry every everything. here are some of my fantastic finds: ...

Since when is John Legend an economic expert on any level? I think he is a nice and very talented person- met him in LAX (waited for his own luggage) but…. economist…. not so much. TIME magazine lost serious credibility with that one.

In the past I have shelled out the 20 dollars at American Apparel for a well fitting gray basic crew neck tee. But NO LONGER- after having discovered the Merona Ultimate tee at Target for $8.99 I bought a medium which is perfect- since i do not need a summer tee to be skin tight. they have great colors, also comes in v-neck. Go target- no pun intended.
