A face only a mother could love
We all have our ugly days when we wake up feeling too fat, too slobby, too old, with too many zits or wrinkles, or finding hair where there shouldn’t be any and less hair where there should. We’ve got nothing to wear, nothing looks good, nobody loves us and hey, what’s the point. We’re just too ugly.
Some of us go back to bed to cure the uglies; some just give up and get back to eating and drinking whatever it was that made us feel fat and slobby. And then there’s those of us who go shopping. To cure my ...

Apple on iPod virus: Quick, look over there!
Apple on iPod virus: Quick, look over there!
Today Apple announced that a small number of their video iPods shipped with the Windows RavMonE.exe virus. Apple says, "As you might imagine, we are upset at Windows for not being more hardy against such viruses, and even more upset with ourselves for not catching it."
Now, I love Apple. I try to avoid all things Microsoft. I've turned down job offers because they wouldn't let me work on a Mac. I used to invite friends over to watch Steve Jobs' keynote addresses. I'm insane. I fully admit it.
But this is a low blow, a cheap shot. Apple should be ...

Go ahead and write on the walls
Go ahead and write on the walls
All you word lovers can thank me later but right now I have to tell you about a company whose sole intent is to encourage you to write on your walls (and other surfaces). Wonderful Graffiti sells great words on very thin, clear vinyl that you simply peel and stick. You can use their ideas, or send them your own favorite quotes. For those for whom words ARE art, this is a treasury of great graphic ideas.
They have wall words, border lines, refrigerator thoughts, chalkboard choices (daily menus anyone?) as well as a sampling of small type designed ...

Never Pay for Directory Assistance Again
Never Pay for Directory Assistance Again
When you want up to the minute traffic information you call 511. When you’ve fallen and can’t get up, you dial 911. When you need the phone number or address of that happening new restaurant or that bargain shoe store, you grudgingly...pull out the yellow pages?!
I bet you thought I was going to say dial 411, right? Although 411 is a great service that’s convenient and easy to use, it is NOT free. Sure that occasional $1 charge on your cell phone for the time you just had to call the DVD rental place, to watch ...

I have been charmed!
I have been charmed!
I have been recently looking for a charm bracelet. I felt that there was no better way to commemorate my life’s events and travels. After I found a great deal on a gold charm bracelet on eBay, I went off in my search for the perfect charm to commemorate my May 2004 trip to Glasgow, Scotland.
What I first learned is that it will be very likely that I will be spending more on one charm than I did on my bracelet. Fortunately, there is no shortage of charms out there. There are dozens of websites that specialize in them, so ...

Next season’s most fabulous
Next season’s most fabulous
Found this interesting article about color forecasting. Might help explain all the flashes of neon yellow/lime on the runways recently.
(Thanks, the Fashion Spot)
My personal favorites from this season: HC (of course), Jeremy Laing (even if Jill contends that his previous collections are stronger...), Aquascutum, YSL and McQueen. And of course, DKNY for wearability and price point.
