An Ivory makeunder My friends at Hill & Knowlton arranged for me to experience an Ivory makeunder. Ivory’s current promotion is all about making life easier by simplifying. The makeunder consists of expert advice from hair and make-up stylists who will help you make the most of your natural assets. During the months of May and June, four finalists will be chosen in the Ivory makeunder contest. There is still time to nominate yourself or a friend for the contest. The winner gets a trip for two to Toronto for an Ivory makeunder, a $500 dollar Yorkdale Shopping spree, a spread in Wish magazine and much more. I arrived at the Tony C salon after work on Friday. I happen to work in the TD Centre so it was super easy to find. Since I don’t have hair I missed out on any hair styling tips they could offer. However, I think I’ve simplified the hair aspect of my routine as much as possible already. I’m a complete idiot when it comes to make up. …

A BinBin Striped Dress This was a great find at the BinBin Sample Sale. It goes great with my other nautical inspired gear. I’m loving the mini trend this summer so I’ve been obsessed with finding more.

An Anita Cuff by WhiteLotus Design Yes, I have a WhiteLotus Design cuff named after me. Thank you to the lovely Edina Racz the designer behind WhiteLotus Design. I’m really honoured to be thought of like this and slightly embarrassed. The WhiteLotus booth was quite busy at the Clothing Show, did any readers buy anything from Edina?

KRZR me!

Published by

I was asked to preview the new Motorola KRZR and since I love to give my opinions to whoever will listen I said yes. 🙂 I met with Ian from Hill & Knowlton to pick up the phone. He handing me this snazzy metal briefcase. Jesus, I said, am I on some kind of secret mission. The photo below was taken with the KRZR. Not bad at this size. I’m a Moto Q user so I’m not loving the phone as much as I would like. I really miss my email access :(. I said I would use the KRZR so I bit the bullet and switched the handset yesterday. Yes, that’s email withdrawal in less than 24hours. I’m pathetic. If I wasn’t already spoiled with a smartphone I think I would love the KRZR. I’m still getting used to the phone. Uploading my contacts, calender and tasks was super easy thanks to Windows XP and Outlook. The MP3 player function is what stands out to me from my initial usage of the phone. It …

Kidrobot Gloomy Bear So freaking cute. Kidrobot makes some killer toys. You might remember my Madvillian toy and the video I made, it’s Kid Robot too. The whole back story behind Gloomy is hilarious Gloomy, an abandoned little bear, is rescued by Pity (the little boy). At first, he is cute and cuddly, but becomes more wild as he grows up. Since bears do not become attached to people like dogs by nature, Gloomy attacks Pitty even though he is the owner. So Gloomy has blood on him from biting and/or scratching Pity. You can get a bloodier version of Gloomy too. You get Gloomy at Magic Pony in Toronto.

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 …

A video I got…

Published by

I was asked to beta test BlogTV.ca. So I made this video for my Madvillian toy. The music is from Madvilliany, one of my favourite albums. I’m still figuring out how this works. While I was recording this I had this little speech and send some shout outs to blogtv and Magic pony, but that wasn’t picked up my the video camera’s mike. Boo Urns. One thing I don’t like is the autoplay. Sorry everyone. I hate it enough to move the video under the cut. Do check it out.

My mission on Boxing Day was to get some cheap Hunter Wellys. Some stores discounted them a little bit like TNT, Over the Rainbow, Aritiza and Capezio. Heel Boy didn’t even put them on sale and they aren’t part of the 2 for 1 sale they are having right now. I almost bought them from Heel Boy until I found out they weren’t part of the sale. I decided to wait it out and I’m glad I did because Over the Rainbow brought out the big guns, 50% off. The last pair in blue were a 38; it was like they were waiting for me. So, if you are looking for Hunter Wellingtons on the cheap, hit up Over the Rainbow. They had a bunch of green ones left and some of another style, The Hunter Lady N. Get them while they last. There is also a lot of other stuff on sale tshirts, tons of denim and sweaters. If anyone is looking for a full length Triple Five Soul jacket they should go very …

i got: Cat Butt Bag

Published by

I think I’m slowly becoming the crazy cat lady. You have seen the cutest cat bowl ever, come on you know, that image some like to hotlink. For Christmas I got the Cat Butt bag from a friend. The weird thing was is that I think it’s kinda cute. I’m not totally crazy, the cat butt gum, stickers and air fresheners are just too much for me. This post isn’t quite complete without photos of the little kitties.
