Polyvore Mania

Polyvore is the fashion sensation sweeping the teen and tween nation right now. It's a girl's dollpaper dream come true, on the web. You can search a huge database of images to find the right clothing items, and create colorful collages that are inspiring and eye-catching. Comment on your friends' sets and create your own-- your imagination is the only limit in this game.

Head on over to Polyvore.  Also, add Violet_a_la_mer as a friend! 

Which muppet are you?

Hiho! You probably knew that Jim Henson's muppets are as diverse in their character and personality as the different kinds of streptococcus that infected him before he died. Okay, that was not funny, and I strictly advise anyone against making jokes about peoples' deaths. But seriously, there are a lot of muppets, and each of them is unique in their own special way. And which one are you?

I'm linking to five different quizzes so you can tally them up and average, and so that you can get the most accurate results. I know which muppet I am! (hint: he's a lean, green, talking machine!)

Music Video Wednesday: The Kills

Offbeat, energetic, and in your face. It's the kills. They're the hottest duo since I don't know when and they were super popular even before Jamie Hince started dating Kate Moss. Although dating a supermodel who's constantly dogged by papparazi won't hurt your publicity, that's for sure. Anywho, I love love love their vid for Cheap and Cheerful, it sort of reminds me of Cheap and Chic by Moschino, but that's just the name. enjoy.

Trendy Friday

Today is friday, and that means trend day! Well, the first trend we are introducing is: the trilby! Trilbys have been a part of the UK Jazz and Arts culture for ages, but now it's getting a wider recognition with celebrities from all over the world wearing them. Guys and gals alike love to wear the felt hat (and similar straw variations) for any day of the year, at any given season. I've seen them cropping up on the streets more often than not, and they're becoming quite a hot item this season.

Refurbishing

Oh dear, I am so sorry! I know I've lacked updates in the past 8 months or so, but now that school's over I definitely have more time to focus on things like this. That said, I'll be working on re-doing the site, adding stuff, taking away, etc. etc. Also, I'll be making days of the week to make sure I am constant in my updating.

Thursdays - Model day
Fridays - Trend day
Mondays - Random item day
Wednesdays - Music Video of the moment day

That said, and it being thursday (hee hee), I am proud to present our model of today: Agyness Deyn. I found out about Agy through the Henry Holland tees, which are fab as you all know, but most recently I have loved her in the Burberry ads. She is an amazing and inspiring model, with her look-of-the-moment haircut. It's being called the Agy now, dincha hear?

Bphone



Beyonce Knowles just came out with a new phone. Well, it's just a red take on the well known Samsung F500, the "Two-Sided Phone". The only difference between the black original and this is the color and the word "Beyonce" engraved up top. Although I'd prefer a Joss Stone fone, her being my diva of choice, you have to admit this is one neat phone (visually). Homegirl got style.

Graphic T's

Graphic T's nowadays are basically like, take a regular sized tee, give it an original backdroup colour, and put something cute/funny on the front. Makes for a really bland formula, but whoever makes them really spices it up and is not afraid to experiment. From fredflare and Acid Love.
