More Haramaki Style
I visited the site of the company that makes the funky Haramaki from Japan. I’ve decided to post some additional pictures of haramaki style. They probably are pretty easy to make if people have that sewing talent thing.
I’m an idiot; I just discovered Robin Givhan
I was bookmarking some of Robin Givhan’s articles today and I ended up reading a few of her other ones. She’s fantastic and a freaking Nobel Prize winner to boot. She writes the Off the Runway blog too.
Don’t you just love a Marni Coat
It’s taken a few seasons but I’ve come to like Marni a lot. My favourite partsof the collections are the wonderful coats. Here is a selection of the coats from the Marni Spring 2007 collection.
I’m liking this turn Marc
Marc Jacobs delivered a collection that I actually like. Clean lines and beautiful tailoring. I’m in shock. I’m loving the hats too and the yellow bags.
Diaper Shorts – BuzzFeed
I got linked on BuzzFeed for my post about Sienna Miller doing the diaper short all wrong. BuzzFeed is a trend site that combs the Internet to find what is buzzworthy.

Posting from the new computer
Nothing excites me more than purchasing new electronic equipment. That’s right, I love this more than shopping for clothes, shoes, handbags, etc. I bought a new computer a little ahead of schedule. It’s beautiful. 22″ LCD screen. Nice wide screen action! I had one of the old and massive monitors before so this is a dream. It’s also Dual core. DUAL CORE baby! That is two Intel CPUs in my box, 2GB of RAM and a one Terabyte of harddrive space. I’m a happy camper 🙂 Unfortunately I’m having a problem with the onboard sound and I have to take it back to get fixed. Reinstalling the drivers did nothing. I called tech support, which is fairly irritating for me because the Men on these calls never think I have the knowledge I do. So this guy takes me through the same freaking steps I’ve already done many times over. Such a waste of time. I hate tech support. I’ll let you know the company I purchased with after I get this sound thing dealt …
i want…
Anne Valérie Hash shoes I can’t explain why I like these heels by Anna Valerie Hash. I think it’s the heel height and the strange forefoot covering. I think menswear when I see them, but can’t place that influence in them. Anna Valerie Hash shoes were available Holt Renfrew but has since been dropped. Holt’s just took their shoe department back from Browns.
