It's over.


Happy New Year fond readers!

Well the holiday season has treated us well. Making our way west, Toronto-bound was an experience. Now that we have come and gone, we have eaten, I have apparently shed some weight (stress-related I'm sure...we all know I don't know what exercise means) and drank too many glasses of Champers on NYE2009-10.

Back into reality, people tend to think of January as the 'write-off' month. Well, let's think about it; the first week is done, the second week, people are slowly checking their emails, maybe looking for a new job, eating leftovers...whatever. By the time you get to the third week, you realize January is basically over.

It's a shame really because December is pretty much the same thing.
I'm not going to write a whole thing about the fact that December pretty much ends around the 5th as people get holiday crazy, food crazy and just plain crazy but that's over and done with and not very timely in my opinion.
So, moving forward...

Kids, January is a brilliant month. You realize that there is a whole new year ahead of you, people make resolutions, eat better, stop smoking/drinking/(insert your vice here) and start appreciating the world getting back on track. We're no longer in holiday mode and-thankfully- there aren't any coming up (if you count Valentines, we are no longer speaking) so let's embrace January together.

So here's to 2010, put on that cute outfit you bought over xmas (which you probably can't get into now, greedy...), have cocktail parties with your friends, catch up with them and laugh at all the BS you each had to deal with from family members over the holidays and now:
GET-OVER-IT.

Sex and the City 2: The promo shot verdict


Is anyone else contemplating, "what the hell are they thinking?!"
Is SJPeePee the Messiah in Ray Bans? Could they not find a more interesting look for this fashion icon...really, I could order this online from Forever 21. But I won't. Because this look is boorrrring.
After all the 80s hair and costumes -well, it is costume isn't it...I mean seriously, would any designer really want to be whole-heartedly affiliated with this atrocity...she looks like a swedish XXX film reject-I was expecting a bit more dazzle.
Anyhoo, try harder next time PeePee. We know you're the executive something-or-other on this film and have a diva-tude about your clothing choices as Carrie Bradshaw, so make some effort. We're all collectively sighing.

Throwback


So for me, these trends just simply do not die. Along with a defined and sculpted shoulder, electric blues on black, turbans, gold, studding, embellishments and Vogue, it just seems this era between the mid to late 80s to early 90s is continuing to influence the fashion world. I guess you could say my style is reminiscent of that time since I didn't exactly get to experience it to its potential...it's withdrawal.
Or maybe it's simply because I cannot get these accessories anywhere near this head of mine...
